2．It's time to do something for your father-the man who for many people has been an encouragement and support since birth．The third Sunday of June is Father's Day．The holiday honors not only fathers，but also all men who act as father figures，such as stepfathers，uncles and grandfathers．
The idea of Father's Day came from the love and appreciation of American lady called Sonore Smart Dodd in 1909．Dodd wanted a special day to honor her father，William Smart．Heraised six children by himself on a countryside farm in Washington State after his wife died during the birth of their sixth child．When Dodd became an adult，she realized the selflessness her father has shown in raising his children as a single parent．It was her father who did all for his children．In the eyes of his daughter，William Smart was a courageous，selfless and loving man．Dodd's father was born in June，so she chose to hold the first Father's Day celebration in Washington on June 19th，1910．
In 1924，US President Calvin Coolidge supported the idea of a national Father's Day．Finally，in 1966，President Lyndon Johnson declared the third Sunday of June as Father's day．
So this is a perfect chance to let your father know what he means to you．To show your love and respect，you need not buy an expensive gift．You can send him a home-made card； You can call him every day； Even you can give him a sweet smile when he comes back from work．All these little things are easy for us to do，but they can show your care and love to your father．

6．Any mistake made in the printing of a stamp raises its value to stamp collectors．A mistake on a two-penny stamp has made it worth a million and a half times its face value．
Do you think it impossible？Well，it is true．And this is how it happened．
The mistake was made more than a hundred years ago in the former British colony（殖民地）of Mauritius，a small island in the Indian Ocean．In l847all order for stamps was sent to London Mauritius was about to become the fourth country in the world to put out stamps．
Before the order was filled and the stamps arrived from England，a big dance was planned by the commander-in-chief of all the armed forces on the island．The dance would be held in his house and letters of invitation would be sent to all the important people in Mauritius．Stamps were badly needed to post the letters．Therefore，an islander，who was a good printer，was told to copy the pattern of the stamps．He carelessly put the words"Post Office"instead of"Post Paid"，two words seen on stamps at that time，on the several hundred that he printed．
Today，there are only twenty-six of these misprinted stamps left-fourteen One-penny Reds and twelve Two-penny Blues，Because there are so few Two-penny Blues and because of their age，collectors have paid as much as﹩16，800for one of them．

16．Feeling left out？
A reader wrote in to say that she was feeling lonely at break because her best friend wasn't around．Here's our advice to her-and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes．
It's hard when a best friend isn't around-maybe because she moved to a different school or a different class．You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime．You want to have new friends．But how do you make them？Maybe it seems like everybody else already has their friends．But remember，there's always room for more friends．
Start by looking around your classroom-think about which kids you'd like to play with at break．Look for chances to say hi to them，smile，and be friendly．Offer to share something or express your appreciation （欣賞） to them．Invite someone to play with you or say"Do you want to sit here？"in the lunchroom．When you're at break，walk over to kids you want to play with，act friendly，and say"Hi，can I play，too？"or just join in．
If you have trouble doing  this，or if you're feeling shy，ask your teacher to help you make new friends．Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends．The best way to make friends is to be a friend．Be kind，be friendly，share，say nice things，offer to help-and pretty soon，you'll have one，or two，or even more new friends．
You might still miss that special best friend．But when you see each other，you can share something you didn't have before she left：You can introduce her to your new friends!

51．This text is written forC．
A．teachers    B．parents    
C．students    D．visitors
52．Some kids feel lonely at break because theyB．
A．have trouble with their studies        
B．don't have their best friends around
C．need their parents to be with them     
D．a(chǎn)re too young to look after themselves
53．The underlined word" this"in Paragraph 4refers toD．
A．sharing your ideas                  
B．talking before many people
C．studying better at school             
D．developing new friendship
54．Some kids need help from teachers to make friends becauseD．
A．they miss their old friends a lot         
B．they have no time to stay with others
C．teachers know who wants a new friend   
D．they are shy or not good at making friends

3．How far would you be willing to go to satisfy your need to know？Far enough to find out your possibility of dying from a terrible disease？These days that's more than an academic question，as Tracy Smith reports in our Cover Story．
There are now more than a thousand genetic（基因的）tests，for everything from baldness to breast cancer，and the list is growing．Question is，do you really want to know what might eventually kill you？For instance，Nobel Prize-winning scientist James Watson，one of the first people to map their entire genetic makeup，is said to have asked not to be told if he were at a higher risk for Alzheimer'（老年癡呆癥）．
"If I tell you that you have an increased risk of getting a terrible disease，that could weigh on your mind and make you anxious，through which you see the rest of your life as you wait for that disease to hit you．It could really mess you up．"Said Dr．Robert Green，a Harvard geneticist．
"Every ache and pain，"Smith suggested，could be understood as"the beginning of the end．""That's right．If you ever worried you were at risk for Alzheimer's disease，then every time you can't find your car in the parking lot，you think the disease has started．"
Dr．Green has been thinking about this issue for years．He led a study of people who wanted to know if they were at a higher genetic risk for Alzheimer's．It was thought that people who got bad news would，for lack of a better medical term，freak out．But Green and his team found that there was"no significant difference"between how people handled good news and possibly the worst news of their lives．In fact，most people think they can handle it．People who ask for the information usually can handle the information，good or bad，said Green．
71．The first paragraph is meant toB．
A．a(chǎn)sk some questions              
B．introduce the topic
C．satisfy readers'curiosity         
D．describe an academic fact
72．Which of the following is true of James Watson？D
A．He is strongly in favor of the present genetic tests．
B．He is more likely to suffer from Alzheimer's disease．
C．He believes genetic mapping can help cure any disease．
D．He doesn't want to know his chance of getting a disease．
73．According to Paragraphs 3 and 4，if a person is at a higher genetic risk，it isA．
A．a(chǎn)dvisable not to let him know       
B．impossible to hide his disease
C．better to inform him immediately
D．necessary to remove his anxiety
74．The underlined part"freak out"in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to"A"．
A．break down        B．drop out     C．leave off        D．turn away
75．The study led by Dr．Green indicates that peopleC．
A．prefer to hear good news    
B．tend to find out the truth
C．can accept some bad news    
D．have the right to be informed．

20．Let's face it-you're going to get a lot of well-intentioned advice from friends，parents and grandparents about your sleep．Some of this advice is going to be just wrong．
Myth 1：Sleeping late on the weekends will make up for lost sleep during the week．
Fact：Getting less than the amount of sleep that you need night after night accumulates over time and starts to create a"sleep debt"．And like all debts，eventually you need to pay the price．The problem with waiting until the weekend to meet sleep needs is that in the meantime，you are paying the price of being less alert，feeling more moody，thinking slower and having less stimulation．
Myth 2：A boring teacher （or warm room，full stomach，etc．） can put teens to sleep．
Fact：If you are getting enough sleep on a regular basis，there is no teacher，math book or reading assignment in the world boring enough to make you fall asleep in class．There are basically two things that make people sleepy-not getting enough sleep and not getting good quality sleep．The environment kids are in，including the room temperature，light level and entertainment value，may unmask underlying sleepiness，but the environment does not cause it!So if you are dozing off in class，don't blame it on bad teaching．
Myth 3：Teenagers can pull an all-nighter to study and still be ready for the big test in the morning．
Fact：Teenagers are much better off studying less and getting a good night's sleep．Research clearly shows that the ability to concentrate and learn new information，as well as to work efficiently，declines sharply after being awake for 15-16hours，and continues to bottom out the longer you stay up．Plus，if the big test is at 8：00am，the problem gets even worse．That's because morning time typically represents a low energy point in the body's normal 24-hour circadian（生理節(jié)奏的） rhythm，especially in teenagers．

64．According to the passage，a student who is in a sleep debtD．
A．thinks slower but more carefully
B．must make up for the lost sleep on the weekends
C．will become more interested in fancying
D．will become bad-tempered and upset
65．According to Myth 2，which of the following is TRUE？C
A．Students who eat a lot are sleepy at class．
B．The warm room can make students fall asleep easily．
C．Students'sleepiness has nothing to do with teaching．
D．The light level may lead students to feel sleepy．
66．If you wake up at six in the morning，when will you begin working ineffectively？A
A．At about 9pm         B．In the early morning．
C．At about noon．      D．In the midnight．
67．According to the passage，at 8：00am a teenager willB．
A．feel more energetic after a night's sleep
B．have a poor learning result
C．have the least desire to learn
D．be able to think in a quick way．
