When you have good friends, the best way to get to know them better is to have a sleepover(睡衣派对). A sleepover usually includes having a party and sleeping next to your good friends all night.

In the UK, friends have sleepovers very often. Some have them once every weekend or just once every month. When you want to have a sleepover with your friends, your parents can call or text your friends' parents to ask about a suitable date. Then, you have to arrange(安排) whose house you'll stay at — your own or your friends' house. The last step is to finish your homework before you get together with your friends so you can enjoy your time together.

But there is one problem: What if the parents don't want so many children to be in the house all day? Well, parents can find somewhere to take the children. It could be a park, a swimming pool, a theater or just somewhere down the road.

There are many fun games you can play with your friends at a sleepover. You can have a water fight in the garden. You can play hide-and-seek in the house. While you play, you can enjoy popcorn and candy. If you don't want to play games, you can just chat with your friends about whatever you want to share.

4．What do we know about sleepovers? 

A．They can improve students' health. B．They usually include a party.

C．Only girls like sleepovers. D．They last at least two nights.

5．Paragraph 2 tells us ________.

A．how to organize a sleepover B．how to choose the best date

C．where to hold a sleepover D．when to finish your homework

6．What is the key to the problem described in Paragraph 3?

A．Don't have the sleepover. B．Watch a movie instead.

C．Change the date. D．Find a place to go outside.

7．What is NOT mentioned in the last paragraph?

A．Having a water fight in the garden.

B．Playing hide-and-seek in the house.

C．Chatting with your friends.

D．Having dinner together.

Preparing to go to Chinese university is tiring enough. But when studying abroad, you need to worry about things like new tests, essays, recommendations(推荐信), college choices and visa applications(签证申请).

The first thing you should do after picking the country you want to study in is to make a list of universities, including a dream school (a school you may not get into, but is at the top of your list), a safety school (a school you can definitely get into), and several schools in between. Look at the websites of those universities and you will get a complete list of everything you need for your applications.

The most important in any application will be your test scores, so pick a time as early as possible to take an exam preparation course.

If you are in a lecture hall with a teacher telling jokes, you are probably just wasting your time. As a reference point(参照标准), US students who attend top universities spend between 500 to 1,000 hours studying for the SAT, so probably you should do more.

You are also going to need to think about how to tell a story about yourself. Chinese students are well-known for being very hardworking, but also for sometimes short of creativity(创造力).

You need to show the university that you are excellent because of your own personality, not because your parents have forced you to be excellent.

Are you interested in sports? Make sure to play on your school's team. Universities want to see that you have interests of your own and can show initiative(主动性).

Finally, find an agent(代理人) to help you finish the application. You will need this help, but be as cautious as you can. Some agents will try their best to help students achieve their dreams but there are also ones who care more about the fees paid by students.

8．The main purpose of the text is to ________. 

A．introduce some top foreign universities

B．give advice on how to apply to a foreign university

C．let readers know about how to prepare for the SAT

D．tell readers how to choose a good foreign school

9．When preparing to go to a foreign school, you are advised to ________.

A．make a list of the universities you're interested in

B．take some exam preparation courses

C．spend about 500 hours preparing for the SAT

D．write a good story to show you are hardworking

10．The underlined word "cautious" in the last paragraph probably means ________.

A．early B．brave C．careful D．prepared

11．What can we know from the article? 

A．It is better to have your parents help you with your applications.

B．Foreign universities pay more attention to their students' creativity.

C．Sports fans have greater chances to go to foreign universities.

D．Agencies don't help your application much.

As the weather gets warmer, there are few things that are better to do than travel. But traveling might not be that fun for everyone, especially for those who have motion sickness(晕动症).

Motion sickness is also called travel sickness. It is a common experience for many people. Depending on how you travel, it can be called carsickness or seasickness. People with motion sickness feel very uncomfortable while they are in motion. They feel sick and dizzy(眩晕的), like the room around them won't stop turning.

It is generally believed that motion sickness happens when your senses become confused with each other, Scientific American reported.

We use different parts of our body to sense movement. Our eyes tell us if we are moving. The inner ears(内耳) contain a special liquid（液体）that helps us sense our direction and balance. Our muscles（肌肉）react to movement.

When you move around, these body parts work well together. But when you are in a car or an airplane, they get confused. Your inner ear gives off the information that you're moving, but your eyes say you're sitting still because you can't see that you're moving. This mismatch(不适配) gives us motion sickness.

But some people are less sensitive to motion sickness. This may be because they have certain genes(基因) that prevent mismatching senses, Bethann Hromatka, a genetics expert from the US, told the Atlantic.

Although there are many ways to deal with motion sickness, scientists believe that the key is to simply try to get used to it. For example, some astronauts do special exercises that give them mild(轻微的) motion sickness. After a week or two, the astronauts become used to it and don't feel uncomfortable anymore, Sam Puma, a NASA flight doctor, told the BBC.

12．What do we know about motion sickness? 

A．It is called carsickness when you travel by car.

B．It happens to only a small number of people.

C．It can make traveling more fun.

D．It causes the room to turn continuously.

13．How do people feel if they have motion sickness? 

A．Worried and angry. B．Sick and dizzy.

C．Thirsty. D．Sleepy.

14．Why do some people have motion sickness? 

A．Because their senses stop working.

B．Because they lose their sense of direction.

C．Because their eyes can't see properly.

D．Because there is a mismatch among their senses.

15．The astronauts are mentioned to show that ______. 

A．it is impossible for others to deal with motion sickness

B．astronauts can easily get used to motion sickness

C．special exercises can help deal with motion sickness

D．motion sickness has something to do with genes
