So I started taking my laptop to school and using it instead of paperbooks and 36 . At first I thought I was in heaven. Writing essays became so 37 . Copying notes took only seconds. I didn t have to worry about making spelling mistakes and forgetting to carry my textbooks. I was always well organized， as everything I needed was saved in my 38 ，so you would think that it was beneficial as a learning tool. 39 ， soon I completely lost my ability to write ， which was very limited when I was still at school. My spelling became even worse as I no longer had to think about it 40 the computer s auto corrector. However，this wasn t what 41 me the most. It was the fact that I was no longer learning what I used to in class. The simple act of writing something down was a way of learning for me, and a laptop could never 42 that. Exams started to become harder for me as I no longer knew all the words and phrases. Also each lesson was at least five minutes shorter because of the time needed to 43 at the beginning of the class and pack away at the end of lessons. Furthermore ，a computer does not have the same 44 as paper，as paper needn t be fully charged. Finally I couldn t 45 my class knowing I had the whole Internet at my fingertips. So during lessons I would often search the Internet and have 46 . As you can see ，the 47 are far more than the benefits for primary students like me. Therefore I stopped taking my computer to lessons. Of course, I had to get through a very tough time.

Everybody can suffer from stress. No matter what 48 age is, you can feel stressed out by 49 is happening in your life.

A saying goes, “ A problem shared is a problem halved .” Part Reading Comprehension (30 marks) Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage. A Are morning people born or made? In my case it was definitely made. In my early 20s, I hardly went to bed before midnight, and I would always get up late the next morning. But after a while I couldnt ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. On those rare occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity (效率 ) was always higher. So I set out to become a habitual early riser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sleep research showed that my strategy was wrong. The most common wrong strategy is this: supposing you re going to get up earlier, you d better go to bed earlier. It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail. There are two main schools ( 流派 ) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day. The second school says you should go to bed when you re tired and get up when you naturally wake up. However, I have found both are wrong if you care about productivity. If you sleep at fixed hours, you ll sometimes go to bed when you aren t sleepy enough. You re wasting time lying in bed awake. My solution is to combine both methods. I go to bed when I m sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time. So I always get up at the same time (in my case 5 a.m.), but I go to bed at different times every night. However, going to bed only when I m sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning are my ways. If you want to become an early riser, you can try your own. 56. According to the passage, the underlined phrase refers to _. A. people who stay up until the next morning B. people who get up early in the morning C. people who feel sleepy in the morning D. people whose productivity is the lowest in the morning 57. Why did the author want to become a habitual early riser? A. Because he / she wanted to have more sleep time. B. Because he / she wanted to do morning exercise. C. Because he / she wanted to test which school is better. D. Because he / she found that the productivity was higher. 58. The author experienced all the following EXCEPT _. A. going to bed after midnight B. asking scholars for advice on sleeping habits C. getting up early occasionally D. pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping 59. Whats the author s sleep pattern? A. Going to bed early and getting up early. B. Going to bed late and getting up late. C. Going to bed when sleepy and getting up at a fixed early time. D. Going to bed early and getting up late. 60. The passage is mainly about _. A. main schools of thought on sleep patterns B. how to have a good sleep C. wrong strategies for getting up early D. how to become an early riser B Two hours from the tall buildings of Manhattan and Philadelphia ( 费城 ) live some of the world s largest black bears. They are in northern Pennsylvania s Pocono Mountains, a home they share with an abundance of other wildlife. The streams, lakes, grassland, mountains and forests that make the Poconos an ideal place for black bears have also attracted more people to the area. Open spaces are threatened by plans for building houses and important habitats are endangered by highway construction. To protect the Poconos natural beauty from irresponsible development, the Nature Conservancy (自然保护协会) named the area one of Americas “ Last Great Places ” . The conservancys member Cook is working with local people and business leaders to balance economic growth with environmental protection. By cooperating with people like Francis Altemose, the Conservancy has been able to protect more than 14, 000 acres of environmentally important land in the area. Altemoses family has farmed in the Pocono area for generations. Two years ago Francis worked with the Conservancy to include his farm in a county farmland protection program. As a result, his family s land can be protected from development. Cook owes the Conservancys success in the Poconos to having a local presence and a commitment to working with local people. “ The key to protecting these remarkable lands is connecting with the local community ” , Cook said. The people who live there respect the land. They value quiet forests, clear streams and abundant wildlife. They are eager to help with conservation effort. 61.
