There are plenty of "energy drinks" on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!

But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.

Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited( 限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems.

25、More and more people think it necessary to study in an English-speaking country and it didn’t take long at all for me to decide to come and study in UK.

I have been used to school life since I came here two months ago, and I am starting to enjoy most of my time in here. School starts at 9 o’clock every morning, and every Monday, Wednesday and Friday we have long days, in which we have 9 lessons and school finishes at 4 o’clock. Every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday we have short days, in which we have only 6 lessons and finish at 1 o’clock. After lessons, we have 2 hours of activity time, when you can choose from a number of activities, including many sports, such as rugby(英式橄榄球) , football, basketball and tennis.

As a boarder(寄宿者), the quality of food is something I consider very important, and Merchiston has not let me down. The school kitchens are run by a professional company, and the quality of food is excellent, and they are always trying to make the diet healthy. One of the obvious advantages of being a boarder is that we can have breakfast in the school, which means we don’t have to pull ourselves out of bed as early as the day pupils!

26、Is modern life moving too fast? Do you feel as if you are running hard, but staying in the same place? Well, you are not alone. According to a recent study, 78% of the young people say the “sped-up” pace (节奏) of modern life is making them feel really tired.

Rapid changes in technology and society are the main causes of the problem. And the continuous bombardment (轰炸) of information can be another cause. With everyone connected by smartphones, young people are keeping up to date with the newest, the latest and the coolest things happening around them. No one wants to miss a hot topic. And with all the videos, games and messages they get from smartphones, they feel uncomfortable with times when it’s quiet—it’s so boring!

Is there a way to help stop the “sped-up” life? Yes, there is. Turn off your smartphone! Staying away from your phone for a few hours each day will put you back in control of your life. Even Bill Gates and Steve Jobs were worried about the influences of the technologies they had created. They didn’t allow their own kids to use the smartphones and the Internet for too long. As human beings, we are not supposed to be stimulated(刺激) all the time. It can even be harmful to both our physical and mental(心理的) health. So, slow down to visit a park, read a book and take up a hobby. It’s a little bit hard and you have to make a great effort, but it’s you who can take control of your time and life, isn’t it?

【1】What speeds up the pace of young people’s modern life?

①fast-developing technology     ②all kinds of information

③influence of famous people     ④quick and direct connection with others

A．①②③

B．①②④

C．②③④

【2】Why do young people like to watch videos and play games?

A．Because they have lots of spare time.

B．Because they can’t stand being bored.

C．Because they don’t want to fall behind others.

【3】Bill Gates and Steve Jobs are mentioned to show that ________.

A．the technologies are not always good

B．they were quite strict with their kids

C．the technologies play a big role in our life

【4】Which of the following is TRUE?

A．The writer always lives a relaxing life.

B．Most young people think the modern life is tiring.

C．Bill Gates and Steve Jobs regretted creating the technologies.

【5】What’s the writer’s purpose in writing the passage?

A．To teach people some ways to relax.

B．To ask people to give up smartphones.

C．To tell people to stop the “sped-up” life.

27、   Once upon a time, there was a kingdom which was ruled by a king who loved riddles (谜语). Once a year the king made a new riddle. He gave a prize to the person who could solve the riddle.

There was a baker who also lived in this kingdom. Everyone agreed that he baked the finest bread. The baker had almost everything he needed except for a horse. If the baker had a horse, he could sell his fine bread from one end of the kingdom to the other.

One year the king made a new riddle that puzzled everyone. “I will give a prize to the person who can solve my riddle," the king said, "Whoever wins will have the pick of one of my strongest horses." He then drew a line down the middle of the courtyard. “Make this line shorter without erasing(清除）any part of it,” the king challenged.

People came from far and wide. They looked at the line and even put their noses to the ground.

“ How can you make a line shorter without erasing any part of it ?” the people in the crowd asked each other. Some of them tried. The dressmaker kicked dirt (泥土) over the line to hide it. The farmer poured water over the line to make it disappear. None of these worked, and the people went home unhappily. Everyone was puzzled about how to solve this new riddle.

A week passed, and nobody had any new ideas. Then one day the baker came into the courtyard with a bag of flour (面粉）. “Your Majesty,” the baker said to the king, “ I can make your line shorter with erasing any part of it.” Then the baker opened his bag of flour. He poured out a line of flour right next to the king’s line. The line the baker made was longer than the king’s line.

“Now, good king,” the baker smiled, “your line is shorter.”
