     Basketball stars are usually tall. The stars of other sports are sometimes short. Some of the best
football players are not very tall. Short people often have better balance than tall people, so they do not
fall over very often. In some sports the players must have good balance, for example, table tennis and
running.     
     You do not need long legs to run fast! Some of the fastest runners in the world are not very tall. Some
are tall and some people are short. There is no medicine to make people grow taller or to make people
shorter.

food today. Good food can help children grow.

     Up to 65% of children don't get as much sleep as they should do, and this can make them nervous
and slower at school, scientists say.
     So how long should young people sleep each night? The answer is between eight and ten hours. If
you don't get enough sleep at night, you'll have less energy the next day.
     But the scientists say many children have missed out on 4,500 hours of sleep by the time they are
seven years old. They say that children miss sleep because they have TVs and computers in their rooms,
and busy parents don't read to their younger children at night any more. The traditional "bedtime story"
helps children to relax and fall asleep peacefully. Children with TVs and computers in their bedrooms
were more likely to sleep badly, and to get less than eight hours' sleep. Even losing one hour's sleep a
night can mean that children do less well at school.
    German scientists think that your brain (大脑) keeps working while you are asleep. To show that
they were right, they gave two groups of people a problem to work out. One group went to sleep, and
the other group stayed awake. The result? The people who slept worked out the answer more quickly.
This showed that their brains had been trying to find the answer while the people were asleep. So,
make sure you get enough sleep tonight, and you'll be at your best tonight , and you'll be at your best
tomorrow!

     Wang Bing's father began smoking when he was a freshman(大学一年级学生) in college.
His friend passed him his firstcigarette. He has now been smoking for more than 30 years. It's
a classic example of how young people are introduced tocigarettes, except that nowadays smokers
develop their habit at aneven younger age.
     It has become a major concern(担忧) in China that many teenagers begin to smoke. A survey
showed that 22.5% of the middle school students questioned had tried smoking and 15.8% of
them smoked regularly.
     For many teenagers, smoking is a symbol of being an adult, independence, maturity(成熟)
and attractiveness because the images who they love best often smoke on screen.
     The social environment also plays an important role inattracting teenagers to smoking. They
are used to seeing theirelders, especially male family members, smoking at home. Many ofthem
imitate adult behavior and become new smokers.
     To increase the price of cigarettes is an effective way to reducethe number of young smokers,
as teenagers have limited money tospend on them.
     Another way is to educate the teenagers to voluntarily refuse cigarettes. A survey shows that
92.5% of the students know smoking will be bad for their health. If we persuade them in aproper
way, most of them may give up smoking.
     All in all, the society, the government, the school and thefamily should join together to take the
responsibility for ananti-smoking (禁烟) campaign aimed at teenagers, not just to put empty slogans
and warnings on cigarette packs.

1. The writer uses the first paragraph to _____.   
A. tell the readers a story of a smoker
B. introduce the topic of the passage
C. introduce the college life of Wang Bing's father.

B. The social environment encourages the teenagers to smoke.
C. The teenagers should be educated to refuse to smoke.
D. The teenage smoking has become a serious problem in China.   
3. What does the word "imitate" in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese?   
A. 指责
B. 忍受
C. 模仿
D. 支持  
4. From the underlined part of the last sentence of this passage, we can infer(推断) that the writer thinks putting slogans and warningson cigarette packs is _____ to solve the problem.  
A. not enough
B. of no use
C. of great help
D. of greatimportance

     It's cool, it's hot, and everyone is doing it. People talk about it often, and friends tell other friends how
  good they look. Sound like a fashion? It's actually another trend (倾向): "blog". What's a blog? A blog is
 a personal online diary. The word "blogger" means a person who writes diaries online.
     Many of today's teenagers are not afraid to openly discuss everything in their lives. Teens complain
 about parents and homework. They share diaries, post songs from the latest bands and show pictures of
 theirs. They write their own poems, say something about their girlfriends or boyfriends and complain to
 each other or offer support. But mostly they just write down what they do every day. However, many
 parents are afraid of these young bloggers. Parents see the kids talking about how they got drunk last
 weekend and how they don't like studying. Besides hearing from their friends, teen bloggers also get
 messages from strangers. Most of the time, it's older men asking to meet teenage girls. "These strange men
 are dangerous for my kids." said a mother.
     Many teens know it's not safe to use blogs on the Internet. They know they are putting information
 about themselves in a place they can be seen by anyone. But teens are unlikely to give up these new
