3．lt's school time again!You're probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over．Some kids feel nervous or a little scared on the first day of school because of all the new things：new teachers，new friends，and even a new school．Luckily，these"new"worries only stick around for a little while．Let's find out more about going to a new school．
Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the stuff you'll be doing that year．Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class，too．When teachers do the talking on the first day，they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you'll know what's allowed and what's not．Please pay close attention．
You might already know a lot of people in your classes on the first day，but it's a great day to make a new friend，so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don't．Make the first move and you'll be glad what you did，and so will your new friend!
Seeing friends you haven't seen in a while can make the first day a good one．You can make the day feel special by wearing clothes that you really like．Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations，or a pair of sneakers（运动鞋）．lt also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need，such as pencils，folders，and whatever else you'll be needing．But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don't have time in the morning．

20．Wealth starts with a goal and saving a dollar at a time．Call it the piggy bank plan．There are lessons in that historic coin-savings container （容器）．
Any difficult task seems easier when started from baby steps．If you wished to climb a 12，000-foot mountain，and could do it a day at a time，you would only have to climb 33 feet daily to reach the top in a year．If you want to take a really nice trip，to collect the 15，000cost，you have to save 3.93 a day．If you drop that into a piggy bank and then once a year put $1，434 in a savings account，you will have your trip money．
When I was a child，my parents gave me a piggy bank to teach me that，if I wanted something，I should save money to buy it．We connect piggy banks with children，but in many countries，the little containers are also popular with adults．Europeans see a piggy bank as a sign of being rich．Around the world，many believe a gift of a piggy bank on New Year's Day brings good luck and wealth．
Why is a pig used as a symbol of saving？Why not an elephant bank，which is bigger and holds more coins？In the Middle Ages，before modern banking，skillful workers made these inexpensive containers from an orange-colored clay （黏土）called"pygg，"and people then saved coins in pygg jars．As"pygg"pronounced much like the Middle English word"pigge"meaning"pig"，gradually，the two words changed into the same pronunciation．Once a clever worker made a pygg jar in the shape of a pig，pleasing children and adults．The piggy bank was born．
In the past，you had to break the bank to get the money，bringing in a sense of seriousness into savings．While piggy banks teach children the value of saving，adults often need to relearn childhood lessons．Think about the things in life that need a large sum of money-college education，weddings，starting a business，buying a home，and fun things like great trips．So when you have money，take off the top 10%，put it aside，save and use it wisely．

29．What is the piggy bank plan？B
A．Setting a goal before making a travel plan．
B．Putting aside a little money regularly for future use．
C．Hav ing determination even when doing small things．
D．Climbing a mountain a little a day before reaching the top．
30．Why did the writer's parents give him a piggy bank as a gift？A
A．To help him develop the habit of saving．
B．To encourage him to climb mountains．
C．To please him with the latest fashion．
D．To teach him English pronunciation．
31．The piggy bank was firstD．
A．a pig-like toy for children
B．a worker's tool
C．an animal-look dish
D．a cheap clay container
32．The las t paragraph talks aboutB．

B．the importance of managing money
C．the difficulty of starting a business
D．the seriousness of educating children．

18．根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．
We all have been told since we were kids that we need at least 8 hours of sleep every night．（36）G．Not many．
Sleep，though，is one of the most important things our bodies need to stay healthy．Without the rest that sleep provides，our bodies and minds wear down to the point where not only do we lose our work efficiency，but lack of sleep can even make us sick．（37）A．
A lot of people eat late into the night and then try to sleep on a full stomach（38）FWhile you're trying to sleep，your body is working hard to absorb whatever you've eaten．Stay away from food a few hours before you go to bed，so that your body can rest．
If you need more hours in the day to get your work done，try to make a choice between waking up extra early and then going to bed on time，or staying up later but then also getting up later．Some people do better and are more productive when they stay up late．（39）DDo some tests on yourself to see which option works better on you．
（40）C．You body and your mind are more efficient when a routine has been set and a habit has been formed．Followed the same positive sleep patterns for a week or a week or a month and you'll notice a big change in how much more restful you feel．

A．If you are struggling to get the sleep you need，here are some suggestions for you．
B．So it's vital to have enough sleep for us．
C．Turn sleep into a habit．
D．Others feel better and have more energy when they wake up early．
E．The more hours we sleep，the more energy we will have．
F．This will not provide you with a restful sleep．
G．However，how many of us actually get that many hours of sleep？

17．

16．Few of us make money by losing sleep．But three graduate students at Brown University in Providence built a company around sleep deprivation （睡眠不足）．
Jason Donahue，Ben Rubin and Eric Shashoua were working late nights in Brown's business and engineering schools．They began thinking about ways to sleep better．They discovered they weren't alone in burning the midnight oil．Around 20% of Americans get less than six hours of rest a night．
The friends imagined a smart alarm clock that could track how much time people spend in the most restorative （有回复作用的） stages of the sleep cycle：REM （rapid eye movement） and deep sleep．What would it cost to design such a thing？Five years of research，20 employees，$14 million and a whole lot of doubting from investors and scientists．
Their company，Zeo，based in Newton，Mass，launched its product in June，2009．The Zeo device uses a headband with tiny sensors （传感器） that scan your brain for signs of four sleep states-REM，light，deep and waking sleep．The smart alarm clock displays a graph of your sleep pattern and wakes you as you're not in REM sleep （which is when you're least groggy）．In the morning you can upload the data to the company's Web site，and so track your sleep over time．Most of the feedback comes in the form of Zeo's ZQ score showing how well you've slept．
"Zeo allows people to unlock this black box of sleep，"says Dave Dickinson，a health-care CEO．
Whether any of this actually improves sleep is up to the consumer，who will also need to make lifestyle changes like cutting out alcohol before bedtime or caffeine after 3 pm．
For now the company is selling Zeo online only．Dickinson also plans to spread it to countries such as Australia，where sleep deprivation approaches US levels．

29．Who will support Zeo？B
A．People full of imagination．
B．People suffering sleeping problems．
C．People having access to the Internet．
D．People having bad lifestyles．
30．To design the Zeo device，the three graduate studentsA．
A．spent much time and money
B．were widely supported by scientists
C．worked by themselves all the time
D．attracted many investors
31．What can we know from the passage？B
A．Zeo has a direct effect on users'lifestyles．
B．It needs more personal efforts to make Zeo function better．
C．A large quantity of Zeo devices have been sold in Australia．
D．Consumers can go to the Zeo company to purchase Zeo in person．

15．"It seems that you had a rough day，Tyler．Is there anything I can do to help？"
"That's just the thing，Mom．We can't help．Today，our science teacher talked about Earth Day and the environment．Earth Day is supposed to be a day when every person promises to do something to help take care of our world．Mrs Green told us our world is getting dirtier and that many animals and plants are dying．She wants us to think of something we can do to help and I thought all the way home and there is not anything that I can do to make a difference．"
"Let me tell you a story that might help you think about your problem in a different way．"She began，"One morning a man was walking down a beach that was covered with dying starfish．Thinking what a shame it was that all of those starfish would die on the beach，he came across a boy who was throwing starfish back into the ocean as fast as he could．‘Son，'the man said，‘you'd better quit．There are thousands of them．They are washed up all over the beach．There is no way you can make any sort of a difference．'The boy spoke to the man without even a pause，‘I can make a difference to this one，and this one，and this one．'The man thought a while，and he knew the boy was right．He began to help return the animals to their home．"
Tyler stared at his mother，"But he did make a difference，didn't he？To every starfish that he threw back？So，what it means is that even though I can't change everything，I can make a big difference by doing the little things that matter？"His mother nodded，smiling，"That is exactly what I am saying．"
On Earth Day，there was a meeting and everyone in the community was invited．Many of them were surprised to see a large brown tree without leaves．Soon performances began．A boy walked across a stage filled with starfish．The play went on as Tyler and his class showing the story and ended with the audience's applause．"At first，we thought we couldn't do anything．The problems seemed too big for us．But then we realized that together，even the little things we do could add up to mean a lot to our world．"The kids began passing out the green leaves and pens to the audience．"We want every person to think of one thing you can do to make a difference to our world．Even if it seems like something small，it will matter．"The audience began writing．"I will walk to work．""I will use both sides of my paper to save trees．"…
Soon the tree was green and covered with the Earth Day promises．Seeing the people laughing and talking as they left，Tyler smiled，thinking of the difference they would make．
