【推荐1】根据短文内容，判断正误（正确“T”，错误“F”），并将所选答案涂到答题卡的相应位置上。

Strawberries look nice, but a light pressure can make them out of shape. Nowadays, there are many young people who are just like strawberries. They easily break down when they face difficulties. They don’t know what to do when they are in trouble. They have a common name - strawberry kids.

Why are many students so easy to break down? Parents and schools are a main reason. Parents do almost everything for them in their daily life, while schools care more about their grades instead of developing their personality (个性).

Liu Yue, 13, is from Fujian. His mom hardly criticizes (批评) him and he always feels good about himself. When a teacher criticized him strictly, he felt surprised and sad. He began to doubt his ability.

Students should do something to make themselves mentally (精神上) strong. An expert said, “When you are in trouble, don’t ask for help too quickly. You should try to deal with problems first by yourself. I also advise you to take an active part in sports and social activities. That can make you mentally strong.

Growing up is not just a happy process (过程). Pains also go along with it. The most important thing is to face the pains bravely and learn from them.

【推荐2】Sometimes our body does things we don't ask it to do. Sneezing(打喷嚏),coughing, blinking(眨眼睛)and even yawning(打哈欠)are examples of involuntary movements or reflex actions(反射动作). What makes our body do these things?

These involuntary actions are a response(反应)to a stimulus(刺激). When we do these things, our body is trying to protect itself. If an irritant(刺激物)such as pollen(花粉)from plants gets into our nose or nasal passages(鼻腔通道),our body sneezes to get it out. If we breathe in dust, our body coughs to remove it from our lungs(肺)or windpipe. We blink in order to keep our eyes clean and moist(湿润)and to prevent dust and other things from staying on them. A yawn is our body's way of making us put more oxygen into our bloodstream.

           . These involuntary movements happen because our brain is giving out signals. There is a system of nerves(神经)called the central nervous system, that covers our entire body: from the brain, down the spinal cord(脊髓)inside our spinal column (the bones that do down our back,to the tips of our fingers and toes. When our body parts sense certain things, like a mosquito蚊子)bite, a message is sent to our brain. Then the brain sends a message back to itch(发痒).

Without these reflex actions, we would not live very long.

1. What is the passage mainly about?

A．We would not live long without movements.	B．Why our body does involuntary movements.
C．We sneeze to get out an irritant such as pollen.	D．How our brain is giving out signals to our nerves.

A．cough

B．sneeze

C．blink

D．yawn

3. Which of the following sentences can be put at the beginning of Paragraph 3?

A．What tells our body to take care of us the way it does?

B．Don't you think it is interesting for our body to do so?

C．What can we do when involuntary movements happen?
