【题目】 One day, when I was a boy, my classmates and I were going to pick berries (莓果). Before I left, my father said, “Harry, when you find a good bush, don’t leave it to try to find a better one. The other kids will run about, picking one or two berries here, and one or two there, and getting very few in the end. If you want to get more berries, stick to your bush!”

I went with my classmates and we had a good time. But it was just as my father had said. Once one of my classmates found a good bush, he called to the others, and they would leave their places and run off to see what he had found.

But I remembered my father’s words, and I stuck to my bush. When I had done with one, I went to another. When night came, I had a large basketful of nice berries, and more than all the others put together. And I was not so tired as they were. I went home happily that night.

Now I have worked for 6 years, but I never forget the lesson my father taught me. I always stick to my bush. When I had a good place and was getting on well, I wouldn’t leave it and spend days or weeks trying to find a better place. When my friends said, “Come with us, and we will find you something better to do.” I shook my head, and stuck to my bush. Now I’m running a big company. I owe(归功于) all I have to the lesson my father taught me.

【题目】 Now, according to a recent Brigham Young University study, the amount of time between sunrise and sunset is the clear winner among other weather variables when it comes to improving your mental and emotional health.

In this unique study-which brought together a psychologist, physicist and statistician-the researchers explored how someone’s mood is linked to weather and associated factors such as sunshine, cloudy days, temperature, rain and pollution. The study found that people are more likely to report mental trouble during shorter days with less sunshine.

It is generally believed that hot days, rainy days or days with thick pollution would make one feel more down and depressed. But the study came up with a surprising finding. It found that more than any other factor, reduced sun hours could increase mental distress(痛苦)while soaking up in sun makes things all right.

The results highlighted that the duration(时长)of the daylight was more significant in influencing people’s moods than the amount of sun rays being absorbed.

“On a rainy day, or a more polluted day, people assume that they’d have more distress. But we didn’t see that. We looked at solar irradiance(太阳辐照), or the amount of sunlight that actually hits the ground. We tried to take into account cloudy days, rainy days pollution… but they washed out. The one thing that was really significant was the amount of time between sunrise and sunset,” said professor Becker in a press release.

Many studies have attempted to explore the link between the weather and its effect on one’s mood, but the results were not conclusive. For this study, many important reason were taken into account-making the research an improvement to the previous ones.

The study concluded that public health should plan on effective strategies that can prevent emotional distress during periods when the sun time is less, such as in winter months.

1What will affect your emotion most according to the new study?

A.The surroundings.B.The amount of sunshine.

C.The weather conditions.D.The duration of sunlight.

2Why does the author think that the new finding in paragraph 3 is surprising?

A.Because it is a conclusion of three scientists.

B.Because it is different from the general belief.

C.Because it is too difficult to understand.

D.Because it is affected by so many factors.

3Which season benefits people’s emotion more according to this study?

A.Spring.B.Summer.

C.Autumn.D.Winter.

4What is the purpose of this new study?

A.To find ways to prevent depression.

B.To know more about the weather.

C.To provide strategies for public health.

D.To find how the weather affects mood.

【题目】 It was a cold day and I had no desire to drive to my daughter Carolyn’s house. But she had insisted I see something on top of the mountain. So here I was, unwillingly making the two-hour journey through fog.

After I parked the car, we walked along a path with thick pine needles and huge evergreens towering over us. Gradually, the peace and silence began to fill my mind. Then we turned a corner and stopped—and I breathed in amazement!

From the top of the mountain, covering several valleys, were rivers of daffodils(水仙花) in bloom. All kinds of colors spread like a carpet before us. It looked as if the sun had spilled gold down the mountainside. At the center hung a waterfall of roses. Here and there were colorful tulips(郁金香). How fantastic the wonder was!

A lot of questions filled my mind. Who created such beauty? Why? How?

Nearing the center of the garden, we saw a sign that read: 'Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking.' The first answer was: 'One Woman—Two Hands, Two Feet, and Very Little Brain.' The second was: 'One at a Time.' The third: 'Started in 1958. '

As we drove home, I was so moved that I could scarcely speak. 'She changed the world,' I finally said, 'one bulb at a time. She started almost 40 years ago, probably just the beginning of an idea, but she kept at it.'

【题目】 You might be surprised that dollar stores typically have a variety of products that can be found at a better price than regular stores—though, there aresome things you should never buy at the dollar store.

A dollar store is a variety store, meaning they sell a wide range of products. Party supplies, cleaning supplies, and paper products are some ofthe great, cheap finds you can find at dollar stores. But, not every product isalwayspriced at just one dollar. In fact, dollar stores often have a wide range of products atprices between $1 and $10.

“Dollar stores are able to profit, in part because operating costs are kept low by employing only a handful of people, and by limiting the amount of cold chain storage in their stores (which is necessary for fresh foods like produce),” says Minovi, a policy associate, focusing on healthy retail policies.

Dollar stores can provide a lot of items at a cheaper price, but that doesn’t mean the item will last longer or function at the best quality. With that in mind, these arethe things you should have been buying from the dollar store this whole time.

“Dollar stores in the United States typically seek to open locations in economically disadvantaged communities that lack a full-service grocery store,” adds Minovi. “Unfortunately, the food on offer is largely calorie-dense (高热量) and nutrient-poor, so this model depends on selling nutritionally poor food to mostly low-income customers.”

1What’s the obvious advantage of dollar stores?

A.Varieties of goods are sold cheaply.

B.Customers can get cheap but perfect goods.

C.Goods never bought at regular stores are offered.

D.All the products in the store are sold at one dollar.

2What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

A.What goods a dollar store sells.B.How a dollar store makes money.

C.Why a dollar store employs people.D.How a dollar store keeps cold foods.

3Which of the following does Minovi agree with?

A.Dollar stores make money by cutting down employees.

B.Much cold frozen food can be bought in dollar stores.

C.Food from the dollar stores is nutritional and healthy.

D.Dollar stores are popular with low-income customers.

4What is probably the best title for the text?

A.Locations of Dollar StoresB.The Service of Dollar Stores

C.The Operation of Dollar StoresD.Disadvantages of Dollar Stores
