If we close our eyes, falling in deep______, we can find that the things that move us to be really happy or sad have a______ meaning. If we don’t go deeper and are just satisfied with______ things, sooner or later we will find that we have not really gained anything because our first______ has blinded and misled us, and we’ll remain ignorant______ we realize that and make some changes.
It is believed that thinking and going deeper than before is______ of great progress. If one day we are willing to go deeper into everything, no matter how much it______ us, we will finally prove how much we have______ up, how much more sensible, mature , and intelligent we have become.

As one comes to some crossroads, he or she sees a sign which says that drivers have to stop when they come to the main road ahead. At other crossroads, drivers have to go slow, but they do not actually have to stop unless, of course, there is something coming along the main road; and at still others, they do not have either to stop or to go slow, because they are themselves on the main road.
Mr Williams, who was always a very careful driver, was driving home from work one evening when he came to a crossroad. It had a “SLOW” sign. He slowed down when he came to the main road, looked both ways to see that nothing was coming, and then drove across without stopping completely.
At once he heard a police whistle(口哨声), so he pulled into the side of the road and stopped. A policeman walked over to him with a notebook and a pen in his hand and said, “You didn’t stop at that crossing.”
“But the sign there doesn’t say ‘STOP’,” answered Mr Williams, “ It just says ‘SLOW’, and I did go slow.”
The policeman looked around him, and a look of surprise came over his face. Then he put his notebook and pen away, scratched(抓) his head and said, “Well, I’m in the wrong street !”
1.Mr Williams was driving ____ one evening.
A. to a party B. to his office
C. home after work D. to work from home
2.When he was stopped by a policeman, he ____.
A. was driving at a high speed B. was driving onto the main road
C. was going to stop his car D. was driving slowly
3.Though slowly, Mr Williams continued driving at the crossing because____ .
A. he didn't see any “STOP” sign there
B. he paid no attention to the traffic rules
C. he didn't have to stop
D. he was eager to get home
4.Looking round Mr Williams, the policeman was surprised because____ .
A. he met a mad man
B. he realized that he himself was mistaken
C. Mr Williams dared to speak to him like that
D. Mr Williams would not apologize to him

Accidents happen almost every day. Some accidents are not serious and some are. We read about such accidents nearly every day in the newspapers. It is wrong for people to think that accidents take place only on the roads or highways, or even at work places. Home accidents are just as common. Because very few home accidents are reported, people come to think that there are few accidents which happen in homes.
There have been many cases where people fall to their deaths from high rise flats. Children often fall over while coming down the stairs. Old people may slip (滑跤) on wet floors if they are not careful.
Nowadays there are a lot of modern electrical appliances (电器) such as rice cookers which make life easy for the modern house wives. These appliances can kill if they are not used in the proper way. Gas stoves (煤气灶) used for cooking are also dangerous if they are not properly used. They may cause burns or, in more serious cases, even fires.
But all such accidents can be stopped if we are careful and follow simple rules of safety. For example, it is unwise for people to try repairing their own electrical appliances if they do not know how to. It is safer to get them repaired by an electrician (电工).
1.Accidents take place ____.
A. mostly in homes
B. mostly on roads and highways
C. mostly in factories
D. almost everywhere
2.Which of the following accidents may NOT happen in homes?
A. People may fall to death from high buildings.
B. People may be knocked down by cars on the roads.
C. Gas stoves may cause burns or even fires.
D. People may be killed by an electrical appliance.
3.People are advised____ .
A. to avoid using electrical appliances
B. to repair their own electrical appliances
C. not to repair their own electrical appliances
D. not to get their electrical appliances fixed

If you are having trouble falling asleep, you are in good company. About 65% of Americans said they have sleeping problems a few nights each week, according to a recent study by the National Sleep Foundation. Sleeping too little can lead to a higher risk of becoming fat and getting depressed(沮丧的). But before you go to a doctor for advice, it is worth examining your sleeping habits one more time. Some of your favorite evening habits may have something to do with the sleeping problems.
Setting a Bright Alarm Clock
The light of your bright alarm clock can prevent you from falling asleep. You can make your room as dark as possible. Cover the bright numbers with a book or consider buying a small travel clock. Your cellphone alarm may also do the trick.
Counting Sheep
When you just can’t fall asleep, it’s useless to stay in bed to count sheep. If you’ve been trying to fall asleep for more than 30 minutes, the National Sleep Foundation suggests you get up to do some reading or watch TV for a while. Such activities will make you sleepy. Before you know it, you’ll be going back to bed really tired.
Exercising Late at Night?
Daytime workouts(锻炼) will keep you full of energy for hours. That’s why you don’t want to exercise within three hours of hitting the sack. Fierce(剧烈的) physical activity raise your body temperature and pumps your energy level—both are bad for a good night’s sleep.
1.What can we learn from the first sentence of the passage?
A. It’s not good to fail to fall asleep at night.
B. People in a good company often have sleeping problems.
C. There are many people who have sleeping problems.
D. You should find someone to talk to if you can’t fall asleep.
2.The underlined part “hitting the sack” in the last paragraph means “______”.
A. going back home B. going to bed
C. going to the gym D. falling asleep
3.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. The bad results of getting too little sleep.
B. Why the bright alarm clock keeps you awake.
C. What to do if you can’t fall asleep after 30 minutes.
D. Why watching TV and reading books make people sleepy.
