2 . You change into your pajamas, turn off the lights, and get yourself ready to sleep. How do you prefer to sleep, on the back or on your side? Here are some interesting sleeping positions.

Starfish

Starfish is when you lie on your back and sleep with your arms lifted up near your head. According to studies, only 5% of people sleep like this. It often causes lower back pain. You can place a pillow(枕头)under your knees if you have lower back pain. You will feel more comfortable this way.

Freefall

If this sleeping position is not familiar to you, you should know that at least 7% of the world’s population sleep that way.

文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。文章阐述了树和人类一样有其生命的不同阶段,在不同的阶段也有它们的快乐和挑战。
3 .      

Trees are one of the oldest “citizens” (居民) of our Earth. They keep our air clean, reduce noise pollution, improve water quality and provide food and building materials (材料).

Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At 1 to 3 years old, young trees learn how to protect themselves. For example, many trees grow thorns (刺) to warn animals not to go near. Most young trees have large deep green leaves so that they can catch enough sunlight and change it into their food and energy.

When trees are 4 years old, they begin to grow very rapidly and become strong enough to face challenges (挑战) later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit.

It is not until the tree is 20 to 25 years old that it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest size. The adult tree gives us shade (树荫), oxygen (氧气) and natural beauty; it is also a great place for a tree house, or a place for us to read a book, listen to music and so on. If we give the adult tree proper care, it will go on to live healthily for many years.

Gradually, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature. When a tree becomes hollow (空心的) or part of it becomes dead, it provides a home to small animals and is a source of food for many other animals.

     In many ways, the life of a tree is similar to our own life experience. When we are looking at the life of a tree, we learn about that each period of life brings its own form of joy and challenge. Enjoy every minute of the life of the trees and take care of the trees!

1. What can a tree be used as when it becomes hollow?
A.A home to small animals.B.Food for all animals.
C.Shade and beauty for people.D.A place for a tree house.
2. Which of the following is the correct order?
①Growing very rapidly                 ②Becoming a real adult          
③Having large, deep green leaves
④Growing older and dying                 ⑤Producing flowers and fruit
A.②①③④⑤B.③⑤①②④C.①③⑤②④D.③①⑤②④
3. Why should we enjoy every minute of our own life according to the passage?
A.Because our life is becoming better and better.
B.Because each period of life brings its own form of joy and challenge.
C.Because the life of a tree is similar to our own life experience.
D.Because trees give us so much and make our world beautiful.
4. Which is the best title of the passage?
A.The life of a treeB.The kinds of trees

5. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage?
