9."Wake up.Alicia is waiting for you outside,"my mother called from the kitchen.My mother didn't like me going for this weekend to my friend's house in the mountains."I trust you,but I don't trust the people out there,"she said seriously."I'm going to be fine,"were my last words before closing the door of the Jeep.The vehicle went along the dusty road and my mother grew smaller in the distance.
The trip over the rough road was uncomfortable.It was scary to climb the steep hills surrounded by great pines.After a long trip we finally arrived at the house.From the moment I got there I knew I would forever love the house.It was decorated like an old country home.My room was small,yet set up nicely.That night I went to sleep early,not because I didn't want to continue my search,but because I was tired after the long trip.
In the morning,the singing of the birds woke me up.The light was just getting through the window.A strong smell of baking and fresh coffee came from the kitchen.I wandered around looking for a living soul,but the house was empty.I had the whole day to myself; my friend had gone hiking.I didn't want to go with her.The main reason for this trip was to spend some time alone to think about the events happening in my life.
After an icy shower,my energies were at their fullest.With basket in hand,I started my hunt.I did not mind walking alone; it was a wonderful feeling to be in contact with nature for the first time.The sound of the water running through the rocks gave me great peace.I never felt such independence in my soul before.

4.Yawning sends out certain messages-either"Oh,this movie is so boring"or"I probably need to get some sleep".But did you know that a yawn can also help your brain to cool down when it is overheated?
A new study,led by a research team at Princeton University,has indicated that yawning could be the brain's natural way of regulating temperature.People yawn more often when the temperature outdoors is lower than their body temperature but are less likely to yawn when it is hotter outdoors,according to Sciencedaily.com.
The research team did an experiment on 160people,80in summer and 80in winter,to examine how often they yawned at different air temperatures.The study found that people yawned more often in winter than in summer.Scientists say that when the air temperature is lower outside the body,there is heat exchange between the overheated brain and the cool air.But when the air temperature is higher than or equal to the body,people are less likely to yawn because the hot air they breathe in will make the brain even hotter.
When people yawn,their jaw is also stretched,which increases blood flow and may also help cool the brain.
The study showed that the amount someone yawned could be related to the amount of time they spent outside.The longer they spent outside in summer,the less they yawned.Nearly 40percent of participants yawned within their first five minutes outside,but after that the percentage was reduced to less than 10 percent.
However,the result was the opposite in winter.The number of people who yawned increased when they spent more than five minutes outdoors.But the change was only slight compared to summertime.
According to Gallup,this is the first report to show that yawning frequencies change depending on season.This could help us to understand better the way our brains work.It may also help us understand the reason why frequent yawning can sometimes be a sign of brain disease.

47.The purpose of the experiment isC.
A.to prove people yawn in winter and in summer equally
B.to indicate brain can regulate temperature naturally
C.to find the frequency of people's yawning
D.to show the real reason why people yawn
48.The information we get from Paragraphs 5 and 6 is thatB.
A.longer outdoor summertime results in more yawns
B.yawning frequency changes with outdoor time
C.yawning frequency increases with outdoor time
D.longer outdoor wintertime leads to fewer yawns
49.Acorrding  to the text,people yawn more oftenA.
A,when the air temperature is lower outside the body
B.when the hot air breathed in makes the brain hotter
C.when the air temperature is higher than the body
D.when the air temperature is equal to the body
50.What could be the best title for the text?D
A.Yawning Is A Sign of Brain Disease
B.Yawning Carries Some Information
C.Yawning Benefits Your Body
D.Yawning Cools Your Brain.

19.Time never had any importance to me until I received a watch from my father that organized my life and made me more responsible.
I received this gift on a gray-sky day.I had to go to the airport at 9:00a.m.to pick up my uncle Ali and take him to my father's house.However,I was late because I was hanging out with my friends.Later that day,around 11:00a.m.,I remembered my uncle,but I was very late.He had already left the airport and taken a taxi to my father's house.
I got to my father's house at 2:00p.m.on the same day and looked at my angry father's face.I felt ashamed.After I said hi to my angry father and tired uncle,my father asked me to sit next to him and handed me this watch as a gift.Then he asked,"Eric,did you have fun with your friends today?"I answered,"Yes,father,and I am sorry about not picking up my uncle."He said,"What you did was not very nice and you should be sorry for your actions."I was ashamed."Father,I'll never do it again.I promise."Then he replied,"I hope today you learned something important,and this watch will be a reminder for you."He told me to take this watch and use it as an organizer of my life.
I learned a very important lesson from my father that day:to respect time and never be late to meet someone.This watch is important to me,not because of its price,but because of the lesson that I learned from it.
