It doesn't matter when or how much a person sleeps, but everyone needs some rest to stay alive. That's what all doctors thought, until they heard about Al Herpin. Al Herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true ? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.
Al Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day. They never saw Herpin sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.
The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness.

With the New Year weeks approaching, you’re looking forward to watching the splendid fireworks shows that will welcome 2019 worldwide. Unfortunately, visually impaired and blind people can’t experience this joyful celebration. That may change soon thanks to Feeling Fireworks, a fireworks experience invented by the Disney Research Lab in Switzerland.
To experience the show, users stand before a large flexible screen, place their hands at the base of the screen and move them around to feel the fireworks. Alternatively, their hands can be situated in the center of the screen, where the initial explosions happen, and then moved across to explore other fireworks.
As the fireworks begin to explode, five nozzles(喷嘴)at the back of the screen start to shoot water, creating movement of water imitating the show. One specializes in the "blooming flower effect", another reproduces the "crackle" effect, and the rest take care of rockets and explosions. A computer controls the timing, and Feeling Fireworks allows users to experience fireworks similar to those in the sky.
Paul Beardsley, who led the research team, says, "We want blind, visually impaired, and sighted people to all try Feeling Fireworks, and to have a shared and enjoyable memory of a fireworks evening."And the screen displaying the vivid images created by water makes it fun for everyone.
The low-cost technology is still in its early stage, with only a 66 percent success rate. However, the team plans to continue improving the experience and believes the day when everyone will be able to enjoy the thrill of fireworks shows is not far. When ready, Feeling Fireworks will initially（最初，首先) be available only at the Disney theme parks, and then hopefully, at fireworks shows worldwide.
8. How will Feeling Fireworks help blind people?
A. By improving their sight to see fireworks.
B. By playing the sound of fireworks for them.
C. By enabling them to feel the fireworks by hand.
D. By planting a chip into their brains to see things.
9. Why is water sprayed at the back of the screen?
A. To create the effect of fireworks. B. To keep the screen clean of dust.
C. To protect visitors from being hurt. D. To lead the way for the fireworks.
10. What does the underlined word "it" (in Para. 4) refer to?
A. Staying in company with blind people.
B. Watching the nozzles behind the screen.
C. Finding the initial firework explosions.
D. Enjoying the grand fireworks show.
11. What can we infer about Feeling Fireworks technology?
A. Research into the technology cost a lot.
B. It needs improvements for a good success rate.
C. It has been put to use at the Disney theme parks
D. It's expected to replace real fireworks one day.

Martha had been working for Miller Laboratories for two years, but she was not happy there. Nothing significant had happened in the way of promotions or salary increases. Martha felt that her supervisor, a younger and less experienced person than she, did not like her. In fact, the supervisor often said unpleasant things to her.
One day, while talking with her friend Maria, she mentioned how discouraged she was. Maria gave her the name of a cousin of hers who was director of Human Resources Department for a large chemical company. Martha called him the next day and set up an interview on her lunch hour.
During the interview, Mr. Petri said, “You’re just the kind of person we need here. You’ve being wasted in your other job. Give me a call in a day or two. I’m sure we can find a place for you in our organization.” Martha was so happy that she almost danced out of the building.
That afternoon, Ruth Kenny, her supervisor, saw that Martha had come in ten minutes late from her lunch hour and she said, “Oh, so you finally decided to come back to work today?”
This was the last straw. She could not take another insult. Besides, Mr. Petri was right: she was being wasted in this job.
“Look,” she said angrily, “if you don’t like the way I work, I don’t need to stay here. I’ll go where I’m appreciated! Goodbye!” She took up her things and stormed out of the office.
That night she called Maria and told her what had happened and then asked Maria, “What do you think?”
“Well,” said Maria carefully, “are you sure about the other job?”
“Well, not exactly, but...”
Maria continued, “Will you be able to get a recommendation from Ms. Kenny if you need one?”
“A recommendation?…from Ms. Kenny?” hesitated Martha, in a worried tone.
“Martha, I hope you didn’t burn your bridges,” Maria said. “I think I would have handled it differently."
12. Martha is unhappy in her job because _____.
A. she has not been promoted
B. the work is not significant
C. her supervisor is younger than she
D. there is too much work with little payment
13. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. At her supervisor’s criticism, Martha lost her temper.
B. Mr. Petri felt Martha was not valued in her present job.
C. Martha’s interview with the director was on her lunch hour.
D. Martha got the name of the director through her cousin.
14. The phrase “the last straw” in the middle of the passage probably refers to _____.
A. the last opportunity B. the straw that saves Martha’s life
C. the last reminder D. the final unpleasant thing
15. What does Maria think of Martha’s decision?
A. Martha has handled the matter properly.
B. Martha shouldn’t have set the bridge on fire.
C. Martha should have found a new job before leaving.
D. Martha shouldn’t have lost her temper with her supervisor.

While it is important to maintain good habits, it is equally important to learn how to break bad habits if you want to achieve success in life. Here are some tips to get you started.
The first step in breaking bad habits is to identify them. Only after identifying them can you decide to do something about them. 16 For example, you may ask yourself: Is the habit holding me back from achieving my goal? Does the habit make me feel good or bad?
17 Then you may listen to the things that people say about you. Are people saying the same negative things about you? It’s easy to become defensive when someone says something about us we don’t like, and let’s face it. 18
Once you have identified your bad habits, it’s time to break them. First, you should introduce something new and meaningful in your life to replace the bad habit. 19 If you hung around at the bars after work, replace it by going to the gym instead. Or if you sat and watched TV for hours, you may work on a task that needs to be done.
20 Write down the efforts you make to change them, and also the results of your actions. And write down how you feel when you successfully change one of your bad habits. If you can read and reflect on how you feel about the progress you’ve made, it may motivate you to continue to work on changing other things.
A. Sometimes you may need advice on breaking bad habits from other people.
B. First, you may ask yourself how you feel about a habit.
C. You may come up with a plan to break your bad habits.
D. Meanwhile, keep a diary of the bad habits you desire to change.
E. Sometimes the truth hurts.
F. Otherwise there is an empty space in your life where the bad habit could go back.
G. There are times when it can be difficult to identify your bad habits.

I remember one of my last few years at an amusement park. I had spent about five years working in a booth(货摊)across which was a(n) 21 comedian(喜剧演员).

When I heard it would be his 28 year performing at the amusement park, I had wanted to 29 him for all the amazing shows he had done on that stage. He was 30 with the crowd after one of his last shows of the day. As each person dropped a 31 into his big basket, he was pointing at them with a huge smile and then saying "No, you're the 32 !” to each one.
I 33 him and dropped a twenty-dollar bill into his basket. He turned to me then, smiling very brightly, and continued with another, "No, you're the greatest!” I 34 him directly and stopped him, saying, "No, Moonie, you are the greatest. I have been 35 your shows for five years from that booth right over there. And I just want to say thank you for the years of amazing 36 that you have given me.
The look on his face said that he was truly touched by that 37 . He asked me what my 38 was and asked to shake my hand. I 39 and we shared a very deep moment of mutual （相互的） 40 and gratitude. I walked away with great happiness, and I know he did, too.

It’s useful and necessary to discuss learning habits. As we all know, good learning habits can make your study go to succeed. As a student, we should pay more attention to our habits which we develop in our study.
I’m sure “repeat” is a best habit. Do you develop the habit? If we want to improve our study, we should repeat what the teachers taught us again and again, and then we can understand or remember the knowledge which the teachers demand us to master.How to develop the habit? The first step: set a timetable , stick to carrying out the plan, and don’t stop.
When I do my homework, I often make mistakes with carelessness. How to overcome the shortage? I think I should think about it over and over as long as I do my homework. And then I do it little by little. Maybe in this way I can correct my mistakes.
