21、   Clothes are important and necessary to us, but do you know how to choose suitable clothes in a correct way? Here are some ideas for you.

When you go shopping and want to buy some clothes, you should think about which kind of clothes you really need and decide how much money you can spend on them. Then look at the labels(标签)  that are inside the new clothes. They tell you how to take care of the clothes.  The label for a shirt may tell you to wash it in warm water. A sweater label may tell you to wash it in cold water.  The label on a coat may say “dry clean only” and cleaning in water may ruin (损坏) this coat. If you do as the directions say on the label, you can keep your clothes looking their best.

Many clothes today must be dry-cleaned. Dry cleaning is expensive. When buying new clothes, you had better check if they need to be dry-cleaned.  You can save money if you buy clothes that can be washed or that are well made. Well-made clothes last longer. They look good even after they have been washed many times.

Clothes that cost more money don’t always mean they are better made. They may not fit you, either. On the other hand, less expensive clothes may sometimes look better and fit you well.

【1】The first thing for you to do before you buy clothes is ________

A.to know how to wash them B.to look for well-made clothes

C.to see which kind of clothes you need D.to read the directions inside them

【2】According to the passage, a sweater may be ________.

A.washed once a week B.washed in cold water C.washed in hot water D.dry-cleaned only

23、When the weather is hot, you go to a lake or an ocean. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth（地面） hot but it cannot make the water very hot. Although the air over the earth becomes hot, the air over the water stays cool. The hot air over the earth goes up. Then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. When it moves in, you will feel the wind. And the wind makes you cool.

Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask “Why is the ocean full of salt（盐）?”, scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks (断裂). Rain falls into the cracks and then carries the salt into the ocean. But then we ask, “What happens to the salt in the ocean?” The ocean does not get saltier every year. Scientists are not sure about the answer to this question.

We know a lot about our world. But there are still many answers which we don't have and are curious (好奇的) about.

24、With online booksellers and e-readers becoming popular, traditional booksellers seem to be dying out. But is it true? Many bookstores are now trying everything to make more readers enjoy staying there to read or choose books they like. And some of them have done a great job.

Usually, online stores have larger number of books than traditional bookstores. Some traditional ones are clever enough to sell just one kind of book and win the hearts of a specific group of people. Trends Lounge in Beijing is such a place for art lovers. The bookstore has walls of books which are about arts and artists. You may meet famous artists there or maybe even a happy couple that choose to get married in the bookstore.

Some other bookstores are trying to make themselves more than just a place that sells books. They want to be somewhere for people to socialize. The Eslite Bookstore in Taipei has spaces including clothes stores, cafes and tea houses. It also holds lots of activities on reading, such as talks with famous writers. All these make the bookstore a cultural landmark in Taipei. Luckily for book lovers on the Chinese mainland, Eslite opened a store in Suzhou in 2015. Some bookstores even go one step further. They themselves have become symbols of the city culture by showing the local culture of the city where they are. For example, Hong Kong has many second-floor bookstores because street-level stores are paid much more. These bookstores are small, but their books a are carefully chosen by the owners, just like the city of Hong Kong.

It’s true that a great bookstore can make people enjoy reading in many ways. After all, reading online can’t bring you the touch of paper, the smell of print, and the strong feeling that you are going on a wonderful journey with each new book in a bookstore.

Paper books give people a very different reading experience than e-books. Harvard did a research last year that found out reading from an e-book at night makes a big difference to your ability to sleep and among other things. When reading a book, the paper kind, one can memorize and understand better than reading off an e-reader. So come to enjoy the beauty of real books in the bookstore!

【1】What are many traditional bookstores trying to do recently?

A．To make children know more about the traditional culture.

B．To discover more books which are about arts and artists.

C．To take the place of the online booksellers and e-readers.

D．To make more readers read and choose books made of paper.

【2】According to the passage, some traditional bookstores have increased the number of the customers by ______ in their stores.

A．building a wall which is about art

B．inviting famous writers to meet readers

C．selling books written by new couples

D．having a yard sale to sell old books

【3】According to the passage, where can we find The Eslite Bookstore?

A．Beijing and Shanghai.

B．Suzhou and Taipei.

C．Beijing and Taipei.

D．Taipei and Hong Kong.

【4】Which of the following statements is NOT true about online booksellers and e-readers?

A．Reading from an e-book at night is bad for your ability to sleep.

B．Paper books have better feelings to the touch than e-readers.

C．Nowadays, online booksellers and e-readers are becoming popular.

D．Reading off an e-reader can memorize better than reading paper books.

【5】From the last paragraph, we can learn that ______.

A．paper books are better than e-readers

B．paper books are cheaper than e-readers

C．reading paper books can make others admire you

D．teenagers must enjoy the beauty of a real bookstore

25、Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一次，首字母已给）

Have you ever experienced the feeling of falling as you start to fall asleep? Sometimes you may wake up to this feeling. If so, don’t worry. Many people have felt the same thing.

In fact, these muscle twitches（肌肉抽搐）in the arms, legs or other parts of the body are called hypnic jerks（入嚼抽动）or sleep starts. And they are very c【1】 . Up to 70 percent of people experience them sometimes, Huffington Post reported. But what causes it?

There are some theories（理念）. Some scientists believe that the feeling of falling comes from the body relaxing itself, especially if the person is anxious or unable to get comfortable. A【2】 you’re going to sleep, your muscles become relaxed. But your brain s【3】 awake. It misunderstands the relaxing of your muscles as a sign that you’re falling. The brain then jerks the body awake as if it’s trying to protect you.

Other scientists believe that different phases of sleep might cause the hypnic jerks. When we sleep, we experience two phases non-rapid eye movement (NREM,非快速眼动睡眠期) and rapid eye movement (REM,快速眼动睡眠期). During REM, our heart rate, breathing and nervous s【4】 can fact irregularly. If the body experiences flashes（一瞬间）of REM while entering sleep, these irregularities could cause twitches.

If you don’t want to experience hypnic jerks, scientists have some suggestions. When you become r【5】 relaxed, you can learn how to reconnect slowly by moving your fingers and toes a little bit. Then start to move your head and open your eyes, while being aware of yourself as you get out of the relaxed state.

But experts agree that hypnic jerks, though sometimes scary, are homeless. If it wakes you up, simply roll over and go back to sleep,. But keep in mind: a caffeinated（含咖啡因的） drink, e【6】 evening activities or stress may make hypnic jerks happen more often.
