Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案):
A private middle school in Britain has stopped morning lessons and moved lessons to start at 1:30 p.m. every day. Its teachers believed their students would study better after a good rest.
Instead of rising early for a 9 a.m. start, students at Hampton Court House in Surrey, can enjoy a lie in and work from 1.30 p.m. to 7 p.m. Head teacher Guy Holloway said the move was from the study by neuroscientists (神经系统科学家).
According to the study, teenagers usually go to bed late and struggle to get up early. So, many teenagers do not get enough sleep during the weekdays and this can, and often does, have a great influence on teenagers’ mental and physical health (身心健康).
The new move began from September last year and the students think it’s quite good. The students have become more efficient and less stressed (压力). They can learn better. They can also avoid rush-hour traffic. This school has the latest start time in the U.K. and is the only one to begin lessons in the afternoon.
The 10th grade student Gabriel Purcell-Davis is one of the first groups of students to start class at the later time. The 15-year-old boy likes the idea. He said, “Finally, I can wake up in my bed, not in my maths lesson.”
1.It takes__________ for Hampton Court House students to have lessons a day.
A.more than five hours. B.five hours
C.four and a half hours D.less than five hours
2.How does lack (缺乏) of sleep influence teenagers, according to the study?
A.Teenagers may go to bed late. B.Teenagers may be excited at night.
C.Teenagers may have a poor memory (记忆力). D.Teenagers may feel less stressed in study.
3.The underlined word “efficient” in the fourth paragraph probably means__________.
A.仔细的 B.耐心的 C.高效的 D.有礼貌的

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题):
Reading newspapers is a convenient way to get the daily news. They are not expensive, and we can buy them at gas stations, supermarkets and newsstands. However, newspapers were not always so easy to get until Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press (印刷机) in the fifteenth century. It made copies by making a piece of paper across metal type (金属活字印刷). There is black ink on it. That’s why “the press” not only means the machine that prints the newspaper, but also newspapers themselves.
The term “newspaper” was first introduced during the 17th century, and the first newspaper was printed in Germany. Before people got into the habit of buying their own copies, a single copy was posted in a public place on a wall or notice board.
Newspapers were not designed very beautifully at first. Today, newspapers contain much more than a record of the day’s events. There are sections for fashion, food, sports, cartoons and games. Newspapers are a source of information and entertainment. For hundreds of years, printed newspapers were very popular.
However, in the 21st century, printed newspapers are starting to disappear. Four hundred years ago, there were not many newspapers because they could not be printed quickly, and many adults didn’t even know how to read. Today tablets, phones, and the Internet are replacing (代替) newspapers because it is easier and cheaper to read the news online.
1.Newspapers were easy to get in the fifteenth century, weren’t they?
_______________________________________________________________________.
2.Where was the first newspaper printed?
