Young American Volunteers
If you have no special plans for your holiday, why not spend your time helping others? Don’t listen to people who say that young people today often think only of themselves. It’s not true at all. More and more young people in the USA volunteer to spend their school holidays working for others. And they don’t do it for money. Here are some of their stories.
Alice Hamilton, 17 I’m going to help the Forest Center build new hiking paths in the mountains. It’s going to be terrific— I’ll spend the whole summer living in a tent and breathing the clean mountain air. I’m going to sleep under the stars. It will be a nice sport, and I’ll be able to do something good at the same time!
Jason Moore, 18 This summer, I’m going to volunteer with Special House Program. They build good, low-cost houses and sell them to the families that are not very rich. They’ll teach me what to do, so I’ll help people and also have a chance to learn how to build houses.
Trish Anderson, 16 I’m going to teach kids who have trouble reading. I’ll work for a program called Reading For Life. Every day, I’m going to help kids choose and read books that they like. I want to be a teacher and I love children and reading, so this is going to be a great experience for me.

D．we should get on well with our parents

We wake up very early to go to school， maybe even earlier to meet with a teacher， complete our extracurricular（课程以外的） activities， come home to have a quick dinner， talk for eight minutes with our parents and do homework until we fall asleep． But then we remember． We have to look at the American College Test（ACT） exercises one more time． Half asleep， we run downstairs to get the ACT book， and start studying． After this we finally get to turn off the lights and drift away to sleep． And then six hours later， we do it all over again．
In my health class， my teacher told us that teenagers need at least eight to nine hours of sleep each night． The sad truth is， with so much to do every day， high school students cannot keep to this sleep schedule（安排）．
Let me ask you all a question： Doesn't it seem more humane（人道的） to give a teenager perhaps two hours of homework each night？ This would allow us to have the eight to nine hours of much needed sleep． Or does it seem better to pile students with five hours of work a night？ It leaves us very little time to relax， therefore reducing the time that we can sleep．
In my opinion． the present structure（结构） of the junior year of high school doesn't work well． Junior year of high school is a time for growth． By this time many students have the ability to think creatively， and solve challenging problems． Homework is important for a student's growth． But do we really need to spend countless hours a night doing it？ Too much homework can only lead to too little sleep and too low an ability． I do think it is time to change the structure， so that we sleep at home， and learn at school．
35. In the first paragraph the writer gives      ．

A．a picture of the present daily life of high school students

B．an example of an ideal daily life of high school students

C．a reason for high school students to live a busy daily school life

D．a suggestion of what high school students should do to pass ACT

36. From the last paragraph we know that the writer thinks      ．

A．Junior year of high school is the most important growth period

B．challenging problems are needed for a teenager's growth

C．the ability to think has nothing to do with homework

D．the present structure leads to students often sleeping in class

37. .Why does the writer write this article？

A．To prove the role of enough sleep in teenagers' growth．

B．To complain about the problems in the system of the ACT．

C．To ask for a change for less homework and more sleep．

D．To discuss the relationship between sleep and homework．

Mitchell is seeing his VR dream come true because China encourages innovation and entrepreneurship （创新和创业） and the government has also provided great support for high﹣tech development．
For 28﹣year﹣old Russian Artem Zhdanov， China is also his ideal place to fulfill ambition．
After graduating from college， he left his hometown in Siberia and moved to Guangzhou．
In recent years， he has built a Russian﹣language news website about China and set up an online store on Taobao． The news website now has 100，000monthly visits， and the products he sells online， such as T﹣shirts， cups， and chopsticks， have become popular among foreigners living in China．
His childhood dream was to be a diplomat（外交官）． Now it has been realized in some ways． His website and Taobao store are like bridges connecting foreigners with China．

Is it better to shower at night or in the morning? Personally, I do both, but which is the best way to go? Let’s have a look and see…

Shower at night

You’ll wash off the dirty of the day.

If you’re out all day and sweaty or taking exercise, you should shower before going to bed. You can take off all the dirt picked up during the day so you can be clean and feel fresh when you go to bed.

You’ll have better sleep.

Several studies have shown that taking a shower in the evening and at least 90 minutes before sleep will allow your body to heat up and cool down in time for a better sleep. It will relax your body and prepare you for sleep.

You’ll have better skin.

Your skin grows at night. A full-body shower at night will make it much easier for your skin to keep the dead skin cells away.

Shower in the morning

It sets up your day.

You wake up half asleep, still tired… coffee doesn’t seem to be working, so why don’t you take a shower instead? It can wake you up and help you get your head in the game.

It is great for morning exercisers.

Also, if you work out in the morning, a shower can help you warm up your body.

It helps your skin.

You can wash off all the oil and sweat during your sleep and feel fresh and clean all day. A morning shower can make your skin appear healthier and make you feel more confident.

So, the conclusion is: there’s not a huge difference in when you decide to shower. Whatever makes you feel better, that’s what you should do.

Showering at     51	◆It can take off the dirt picked up in the day so that you can be clean and feel     52    . ◆It can help you     53     better because it will relax your body. ◆It’s good for your skin because it keeps the     54     skin cells away.
55     in the morning	◆It sets up your day when coffee doesn’t     56    . ◆It warms up your body if you     57     in the morning. ◆It can make you have     58     skin and feel more confident because it can wash off all the oil and sweat     59     your sleep.
Conclusion	There is no huge     60     in when you decide to shower.
