4．My father had always been an alert observer of human character．Within seconds of meeting someone，he could sum up their strengths and weaknesses．It was always a challenge to see if any of my boyfriends could pass Dad's test．None did．Dad was always right-they didn't pass my test either．After Dad died，I wondered how I'd figure it out on my own．
That's when Jack arrived on the scene．He was different from any other guy I'd dated．He could sit for hours on the piano bench with my mother，discussing some composers．My brother Rick loudly announced that Jack wasn't a turkey like the other guys I'd brought home．Jack passed my family's test．But what about Dad's？
Then came my mother's birthday．The day he was supposed to drive，I got a call．"Don't worry，"he said，"but I've been in an accident．I'm fine，but I need you to pick me up．"
When I got there，we rushed to a flower shop for something for Mom．"How about gardenias？"Jack said，pointing at a beautiful white corsage．The florist put the corsage in a box．
The entire ride，Jack was unusually quiet．"Are you all right？"I asked．"I've been doing a lot of thinking，"he said．"I might be moving．"Moving？Then he added，"Moving in with you．"I nearly put the car on the sidewalk．"What？"I asked．"I think we should get married，"he said．He told me he'd planned his proposal in a fancy restaurant，but after the accident，he decided to do it right away．"Yes，"I whispered．We both sat stunned，tears running down our cheeks．I'd never known such a tender moment．If only Dad were here to give his final approval．
"Oh，let's just go inside．"Jack laughed．My mother opened the door．"Happy Birthday!"we shouted．Jack handed the box to her．She opened it up．Suddenly，her eyes were filled with tears．"Mom，what's wrong？"I asked．"I'm sorry，"she said，wiping her eyes．"This is only the second gardenia corsage I've ever received．I was given one years ago，long before you kids were born．""From who？"I asked．"Your father，"Mom said．"He gave me one right before we were engaged．"My eyes locked on Jack's as I blinked away tears．Dad's test？I knew Jack had passed．

In the West Bank and Gaza（加沙），the mood was overexcited as hundreds of Palestinians welcomed the prisoners back home，after many had spent more than 20years behind bars．
Crowds of people rushed toward the 5prisoners released to Gaza，raising them on their shoulders，waving Palestinian flags and dancing to music．Relatives held signs that read"we will never forget our heroes．"More than 2，000people welcomed the 21prisoners released to the West Bank，who were greeted at a ceremony by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah．

I just come back from Britain last week．I was luckily enough to be one of the students from different country to visit the UK from Feb.16 to 28．We visited to many places，like London，Oxford or the Lake District．I learned much about British culture and history in London，where was my favorite．I also liked Oxford，where I saw much more old buildings．The Lake District was beautiful，but it was pity that it rained heavily when they were there．The most exciting thing for me in Britain was what I made a lot of friends there．

13．Previous studies have suggested as many as 70percent of college students get insufficient（不充足的）sleep．But  new data released today that analyzed sleep habits of college-age users of Jawbone's UP fitness tracker suggests otherwise．
Jawbone looked at sleep data from college-age users who wear the company's UP fitness trackers and found that they actually average just over 7hours of sleep per night on weekdays and 7.38hours on weekend nights．The data comes from 18，498college-age users from 137schools across the country who wear the device and accounts for 1.44million nights of sleep data recorded by those individuals between 2013and 2016．Here are four more points about the research：
1．People at high-achieving schools tended to have later bedtimes
The data analytics team at Jawbone was also able to separate out sleep data for each school with UP wearers reporting data．They found that the tougher the school，according to the U．S．News ranking，the later the average college-age UP wearer at that school goes to bed．
2．Still，7hours may not be enough sleep
While the data from Jawbone may be encouraging，considering that previous research has found that some students sleep only 5.7hours a night on average．But Neil Kline，a sleep physician，points out that even this higher number isn't sufficient．"There is much data that suggests that this age group needs more than seven or 7.5hours of sleep on average per night，"Kline claimed．
3．The data doesn't include naps
Another point，Kline said，is that the data doesn't include naps．Total daytime sleep-napping-tends to be difficult to account for because naps can be short and easily forgotten，he said．But they do affect total sleep．
4．Fitness-tracking students aren't exactly the norm
It's also important to note that the data from Jawbone comes from college-age people who purchased and used Jawbone UP fitness tracking devices，which means that the participants in this research do not necessarily make up a representative sample（样本）of college students in terms of socioeconomic status or lifestyle factors．

28．What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 1？D
A．New data has the same results as the previous one．
B．New data and the previous one have many things in common．
C．New data from Jawbone may astonish most college students．
D．New data suggests that college students spend more time sleeping．
29．According to the new data，a student who does well in academic performance may probably sleepB．
A．less than 5.7hours a night
B．less than 7.5hours a night
C．early at night
D．over the night
30．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage？A
A．The sample of college students is far from enough．
B．College students usually don't have naps at all．
C．College students sleep only 5.7hours a night on average．
D．Every college student across the country takes part in the research．
31．What is the author's purpose in writing this passage？C
A．To show the importance of sufficient sleep at night．
B．To explain why college students can't get sufficient sleep．
C．To tell readers some data about college students'sleep per night．
D．To offer college students some tips on handling insufficient sleep．
20．-I bought a dress for only﹩10 in a sale；it was a real bargain．-I won't pay﹩10 for that dress； it's not worth ______．（　　）
A．all that muchB．that much allC．that all muchD．much all that
