During the cold winter days you may find it hard to wake up in the morning. It’s warm and cozy (舒适的) in your bed.
In winter, many animals like to sleep, too. But their sleeps can be very long and deep. This kind of sleep is called hibernation (冬眠). During this kind of sleep, their temperatures go down, and hearts beat (跳动) slowly. They take very small breaths(呼吸).
Animals can hibernate for part or all of the winter. It’s hard for them to find things to eat. When they go to sleep, they don’t need much food.
Bears, hedgehogs (刺猬) and chipmunks (花栗鼠) go to sleep in their homes. Frogs(青蛙) and snakes hibernate, too. Frogs move into the earth under water to keep themselves warm.
Before they go to sleep, they eat a lot to get fat (脂肪). Some also keep food in their homes to eat later.
Bears are the biggest animals that hibernate. They often sleep in caves (山洞). Bears must eat a lot of things like nuts before going to sleep for a long time. They eat as much as 300 apples ( that’s the same as 60 hamburgers) each day for many weeks. They can eat for 20 hours in a day!
Bears can go into a very deep sleep. It can last from three months to half a year. During that time they do not eat, drink or go to the toilet. A mother bear can give birth to babies during her hibernation.
Other animals sleep less. Sometimes they wake up to eat, or take a walk. Then they go to sleep again.

It is a cold and dry winter morning. When you wake up, you feel that your throat hurts. You begin to sneeze and later you may cough. You must have a cold! Wait a moment. Could it just be a common cold or the flu(流感) going around?
A cold gives you a runny nose and cough. But it’s usually easy to deal with. Some take medicine while others drink herbal tea or chicken soup. Usually you feel better after a week.
On the other hand, the flu can be much more dangerous. It usually gives you fever. Sometimes it can cause death. According to an American magazine, the worst flu killed about 50 million people from 1918 to 1919.
Don’t worry. If you get a flu vaccine(疫苗), it can stop you from getting the virus(病毒). Flu vaccines work by giving the body a small amount of flu viruses. This causes your body to have antibodies(抗体). So next time you get the flu, the antibodies should help you.
The flu virus changes every few years. So there are so many types of flu, such as H1N1 and H5N1. The antibodies for one type of flu can’t help us against all types of flu. That’s why we need to get the vaccine every year.
However, good health habits may also help you away from a cold or flu. Washing your hands often stops you from getting viruses easily. It is also important to get regular exercise and eat healthy food. All these can help you strengthen your immune system (增强免疫系统).
1.If you have a common cold, usually you’ll feel better after ______ days.
A.7 B.10 C.15 D.20
2.What does the underlined “it” refer to?
A.Herbal tea. B.Chicken soup. C.A flu virus. D.A flu vaccine.
3.We need to get a flu vaccine every year because ______.
A.the flu often kills us B.the antibodies can help us against all types of flu
C.the flu virus changes every few years D.you don’t need to take any medicine after that
4.The following ways can help stop the flu EXCEPT ______.
A.staying indoors B.getting regular exercise
C.eating healthy food D.washing our hands often

Winter is cold and it can be difficult for animals to find food during winter. They get through winter in many ways.
Would you like to go to a warm place for the winter? That’s what migratory (迁徙的) animals do. When the weather starts to get cold, migratory animals like some birds and butterflies fly to a warmer place, and then they come back in spring.
Another good way to get through winter is to sleep through it. Many animals hide and sleep during the winter. Their body temperature drops and hearts beat more slowly. This helps them to save their energy. They do not eat. They live off their fat. They wake up when the weather gets warmer. We call this hibernation (冬眠). Snakes, frogs and bears hibernate in winter.
Many animals stay active in winter and adapt to (适应) the cold weather. Some animals save food in summer and autumn and eat it in winter. This is what squirrels do. Other animals make changes in their bodies or behavior (行为). To keep warm, some animals grow thicker coats in winter. Some animals eat different kinds of food as the seasons change. The red fox eats fruit and insects in the other three seasons, but eats small rodents (啮齿类动物) in winter. Other animals change colour. The arctic (北极的) fox is brown in summer. Its coat turns white in winter.
How do you live through the winter? Do you wear a thick coat? Do you stay inside? Or do you live in a warm place?

Your mom tells you to put on your hat and gloves. But as the cold winter season gets closer, it’s so cold that even mom’s advice does not work.
That means it’s time to put on your qiuku! This is a kind of “thermal underwear(保暖内衣)” or long underpants that keep people warm in the coldest months of the year.
In Western countries, qiuku is usually known as long johns, but they aren’t popular. Long johns in the US are usually two pieces, a long-sleeved(长袖的) shirt and long pants, worn under other clothing or sometimes even used as pajamas(睡衣).
Long johns first appeared in England during the 17th century. We call them long johns because the US boxer John L. Sullivan wore them while he boxed. But this is not a historical fact.
In the US, it gets quite cold and snowy in many places. And while parents often push kids to wear more clothes and long underwear, it’s very special when young people actually(实际上) put them on.
Part of the reason might be because it’s not very fashionable(时尚的) and another reason might be because people don’t spend much time outside during the cold months. So they just deal with the freezing(冰冻的) temperatures when they have to leave the warm building. But in their parents’ eyes, staying warm is more important than looking nice.
1. People wear qiuku to be __________.
A. fashionable B. popular C. friendly D. Warm
2. What is part of long johns in the US?
A. Socks B. T-shirts C. Long pants D. Coats
3.Which one is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Long johns first appeared in the US in the 17th century.
B. Long johns got its name from the boxer John L. Sullivan.
C. We can read about long johns and Sullivan in history books.
D. Long johns in Western countries are as popular as qiuku in China.
4. What does the underlined sentence mean?
A. Few young people wear long johns.
B. Many young people wear long johns.
C. Young people like special long johns.
D. Young people dislike special long johns.
5.The last paragraph tells us that ___________.
