School tests can be stressful. But they might also encourage you to help change the world. Three girls, Kristen, Jenna and Marisa from New York, learned about a growing problem from a reading test they took. The problem is e-waste, short for electronic waste. The girls learned some dangerous chemicals (化学品) in e-waste can harm the environment and people.
Later in the year, they had to come up with an idea for a science project. They remembered the interesting topic from their test. So the girls started a recycling drive to help other students and the community learn about properly recycling e-waste. They called themselves the E-Waste Girls.
"In our town, people recycle paper, plastic and glass, but not electronics. What can we do " asked Marisa.
"How about asking our friends if they know how to recycle e-waste " suggested Jenna.
The girls asked their friends, and nobody had heard anything about it. Many of their teachers didn't know either. So they taught everyone, including their teachers, to learn about properly recycling e-waste. Then they put recycling boxes in the school hall and asked the students to collect old cell phones, radios and other items. When the boxes were full, they sent them to a special recycling center. The recyclers took out the dangerous chemicals and disposed (处理) of them properly, so that they don't go into the air or the ground or the water.
One big way people can help reduce e-waste is by buying smartly. So the girls strongly suggested considering electronics made with fewer dangerous chemicals and choosing electronics that will last several years.
The girls' project also helped them become finalists in the We Can Change the World Challenge, a national student competition. The E-Waste Girls see a bright future in which projects like theirs will not be needed any more.
(1) How did the E-Waste Girls first learn about e-waste
A．A friend told them about it.

I was standing in the checkout line behind a woman who looked to be in her 60s. When it was her turn to pay, the cashier (收银员) greeted her by name and asked her how was she doing
The woman looked down, shook her head and said "Not so good. My husband just lost his job and my son is up to his old tricks again. The truth is, I don't know how I am going to get through the holidays."
Then she gave the cashier food stamps.
My heart ached. I wanted to help but didn't know how. Should I offer to pay for her groceries, ask for her husband's resume (简历)
As I walked into the parking lot, I spotted the woman returning her shopping cart. I remembered something in my purse that I thought could help her, maybe it would make her life better.
My heart pounded as I approached (逐渐靠近) the woman.
"Excuse me," I said, my voice trembling a bit. "I couldn't help overhearing what you said to the cashier. It sounds like you're going through a really hard time right now. I'm so sorry. I'd like to give you something."

When the woman read the cards only two words, she began to cry. And through her tears, she said, "you have no idea how much this means to me."
I was a little startled (吓一跳) by her reply. Having never done anything like this before, I didn't know what kind of reaction I might receive. All I could think to say was: "Would it be okay to give you a hug "
After we embraced, I walked back to my car and began to cry, too.
The words on the card

（2021·北京市·期末）There are many ways to help improve your health like eating healthy food, taking exercise and getting medical help. But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night. The general sleeping rule is that the younger you are, the longer sleep you need. But regardless of (不管) age, some people need to sleep more while for some a few hours is enough.
The problem with sleep is that more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health Organization, over half the people in the world may be sleep-deprived. Having less sleep not only makes people feel tired but also causes accidents. In the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100,000 traffic accidents a year. Also sleep problems can cause medical problems such as high blood pressure (血压).
Why are so many people sleep-deprived Part of the reasons may be cultural. In the American culture, people put a higher value on work than on sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are usually seen as "lazy". Also, you can sometimes hear some people say proudly that they don't have much time to sleep, they only sleep four or five hours a night. It seems that the less you sleep, the more work you'll do.
How do we teach these people to learn the value of sleep Perhaps they may listen to the advice of Dr. James Maas, an expert (专家) in sleep. He says, "Sleep is like a credit (信用) card. When you sleep less, you are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back. The more hours you don't sleep, the more hours you should sleep to 'pay back' the hours on your 'sleep credit card'."
For those who value work more than sleep, they should listen to what a famous person once said, "Don't think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night. That is a foolish (愚蠢的) idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more."
(1) According to the writer, the easiest and cheapest way to improve health is to _____.
A．eat healthy food every day
B．take exercise as much as possible
C．get medical help whenever necessary
D．sleep eight hours or more every night
(2) What does "sleep-deprived" mean in Paragraph 2
A．Having a good sleep.
B．Excited about sleep.
C．Having less sleep.
D．Interested in sleep.
(3) According to Dr. James Maas, what is sleep like
A．An hour.
B．A report.
C．A credit card.
D．A piece of paper.
(4) What do the words of the famous person mean in Paragragh 5
A．Sleeping during the night is foolish.
B．Sleeping during the night is helpful.
C．People have no courage.
D．People always do less work.
(5) What is the best title of the passage
A．The Value of Sleep B．The Value of Study

Christmas is over. And Paplo Sica got the radio-controlled truck that he wanted. But nobody would believe the pain and work that went into getting this holy (神圣的) toy.
It all started on October 13 when a friend of his brought a car magazine to school. As soon as Paplo Sica saw it, he knew he wanted a truck for Christmas.
For over a month Paplo Sica stared at car magazines until he made up his mind: "I want a Midnight Pumpkin truck! I have got to work immediately, dropping hints (暗示) to my father about it." His first job was to tell his father about how the steering (操纵杆) on his own car didn't work. But his father just blamed the problems on Paplo's bad driving and by the end of the week Paplo was US ＄36.79 poorer after he was made to get some repairs.
Paplo's next plan would have to be more obvious. "Look at this, Dad. The Midnight Pumpkin radio-controlled truck with controller and battery pack (电池包)—all for only US ＄250! You can't afford to miss out this Bargain!"
His answer was that he certainly could afford to miss a bargain like this and that for US ＄250 you could buy something educational, like a telescope.
"A telescope ! To look at the moon ! The moon has been around for 50 billion years and will probably be around for another 5 billion! I'll look at it through a telescope when I'm 97 years old and living in a nursing home! This is my youth! I'm supposed to run around."
Paplo went into his room, angry at how mean his father was. It was obvious that his father didn't care that Paplo would die if he didn't get the Midnight Pumpkin radio-controlled truck.
When Paplo woke up on Christmas morning he wasn't excited. He had been beaten. Paplo opened all his presents until there was just one big package left. "The telescope," he thought. Paplo Sica removed the packaging and looked at the top of the box—it was a Midnight Pumpkin truck. "I have won! I love my parents! I could even get an A+ in English class!"
(1) It was _____ for Paplo Sica to get what he wanted.
A．easy B．hard C．impossible D．necessary
(2) Paplo Sica had his old car mended because _____.
A．he didn't drive it carefully
B．he had broken it for fun
C．there was something wrong with it
D．his father made him to do so
(3) Paplo Sica's father gave Paplo a good education by _____.
A．letting him play with the radio-controlled truck
B．blaming the problems on his bad driving
C．missing a bargain for US ＄250
D．making him have the broken car fixed
(4) At last Paplo Sica's father wanted to give Paplo Sica _____.
A．a good present B．a surprise C．a good chance D．a big package
(5) The word "mean" in this passage means _____.
A．ungenerous B．unselfish C．unfriendly D．unlucky

On Friday, June 20th, 29 dogs along with their owners came to Santa Rosa, California. They came there to take part in an unusual competition—one that seeks out and honors the World's Ugliest Dog. Now in its 26th year, the competition is one of the biggest attractions at the annual Sonoma County Fair.
Among the leading competitors were Cupcake, who was adopted (收养) from a local dog rescue center in January, and Shorty, who would have been put to sleep if its owner, Jason, wasn't kind enough to pick it up. Also competing was 11-year-old veteran Grovie. Described by his owner as short and funny, the Chinese pug is a local resident who has taken part in this contest several times. Then there was the 2002 "World's Ugliest Dog" and "Ring of Champions" winner, Rascal. The 7lbs naturally hairless dog with very few teeth comes from an impressive background. His grandfather, Chi Chi, has held the Guinness World Record for winning the title "World's Ugliest Dog" seven times!
But all these impressively "ugly" dogs had no chance against Peanut. The two-year-old dog was badly burnt in a fire which caused him to lose his lips, most of his body hair and eyelids. Besides winning the title, $1,500 in cash and a large trophy (奖杯), the first-time winner also enjoyed an all-expenses-paid trip to New York City where he made scheduled appearances on the Today Show and the Jimmy Kimmel Show.
The competition is a great way to honor these dogs, many of whom get their unusual looks because of human abuse (虐待). But most importantly, it shows the world that ugliness does not prevent dogs from becoming very loving pets.
(1) The competition is mainly for _____.
A．dog owners who have ugly dogs
B．people who are willing to adopt dogs
C．dogs with unusual skills
D．dogs with ugly appearances
(2) Jason adopted Shorty perhaps because _____.

B．He has no hair and very few teeth.
C．His grandfather has won the title "World's Ugliest Dog" several times.
D．He once appeared on the Today Show and the Jimmy Kimmel Show.
(4) Which dog won the competition this time
A．Rascal. B．Peanut. C．Chi Chi. D．Grovie.
(5) What's the main purpose of the competition
A．To call on people to adopt ugly dogs.
B．To tell people ugly dogs are not worth loving.

(1) 此题是细节理解题。答案出处：But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night. 但是改善健康最简单、最便宜的方法就是每晚睡8小时或更长时间。
因此，正确答案是D。
(2) 此题是词义猜测题。答案出处：The problem with sleep is that more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health Organization, over half the people in the world may be sleep-deprived. Having less sleep not only makes people feel tired but also causes accidents. 睡眠的问题是世界上越来越多的人睡眠不足。根据世界卫生组织，世界上超过一半的人可能sleep-deprived。睡眠不足不仅会使人感到疲劳，还会引起事故。根据not sleeping enough和Having less sleep可知sleep-deprived指睡眠不足。
因此，正确答案是C。
(3) 此题是细节理解题。答案出处：He says, "Sleep is like a credit (信用) card. When you sleep less, you are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back.

That is a foolish (愚蠢的) idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more." 对于那些把工作看得比睡眠更重要的人来说，他们应该听听一位名人曾经说过的话：“不要因为你晚上睡觉就认为你会做更少的工作。”那是没有想象力的人所持有的愚蠢想法。你可以做得更多。”由此推知，此话表示晚上的睡眠其实是很有帮助的。
因此，正确答案是B。
(5) 此题是最佳标题题。答案出处：全文。此文介绍了缺少睡眠的害处以及睡眠充足的好处。结合“How do we teach these people to learn the value of sleep 我们如何教这些人学会睡眠的价值？”可知选A。
