    For many years the United States and the other countries used gold and silver as money. Paper money was used to stand for the holdings(储备)of both gold and silver. The value of silver was limited to that of gold. Fifteen ounces(盎司) of silver had the same value of one ounce of gold. These values did not change until after 1860 when mines(银矿)in the west of the United States began to  1 large amounts of silver. This extra amount of silver caused the price of silver to 2    . Then fifteen ounces of silver would no longer buy one ounce of gold. In 1871 Germany declared(宣布)that it would not support its paper money with silver any more. Instead, it would use only gold. Other countries of Europe quickly  3 the same. The United States passed a law in 1973 that prevented the government from using silver as money. Western silver producers protested(抗议)loudly and put much pressure on the  4 makers. Five years later a new law was 5 . It said that the government must buy four and half million ounces of silver each month. The new law increased the amount of silver money. The country had two kinds of quite different views on the issue(发行)silver money. Businessmen, bankers and other rich men wanted to 6  the use of silver money because it made the dollar less valuable. But farmers, laborers and the others who owned the money not only wanted silver money but also wanted an unlimited supply of it.

    The hottest place in the world is the Sahara Desert in Africa. But there are deserts in many other places: in America, in Asia and in Australia. In 1917 the temperature in Death Valley, in the United States, was over 48°C every day for six weeks. That's very hot!
    But deserts are not always hot. After dark, deserts are very cold.
    Not many animals and plants can live in a desert, because it doesn't rain very often. But one animal likes the desert — the camel. It has big feet to walk on the sand. It can live for a long time without water. Sometimes it doesn't drink anything for weeks — so it gets very thirsty! When it finds water it can drink 100 liters(升) at a time.

    C．Warm and wind

    During the day, you spend a lot of time running, jumping, laughing, eating, and talking. You use up a lot of energy(能量) , and by the end of the day you’re tired. Sleep gives your body a chance to rest.
    But your brain (大脑)and body are not completely at rest during sleep. While you sleep, your mind may think of the things that happened during the day. It keeps the important things in mind as memories(记忆). It also thinks about things you were worrying about, and you may wake up with answers to some of your problems.
    You also grow while you sleep. The thing called "human growth hormone (荷尔蒙)" in the body helps you grow during sleep. This growth hormone also helps the body to repair itself.
    Sleep helps your body to conserve energy too. You use up a lot of energy during your daily activities. But when you sleep, your body temperature falls, and your "metabolism" (新陈代谢) slows down. You are still using some energy, but much less than when you are awake and active.
    Have you ever stayed up past your bedtime? Did you have difficulty getting up the next morning? Maybe you had problems seeing clearly or you cannot think clearly. That was your body’s way of saying, "I need sleep！" A lack ( 缺乏) of sleep can stop your body and mind from working correctly.
    小题1:What does "human growth hormone" do while people sleep?
    A．It helps people rest well.B．It helps repair the body.
    C．It helps answer problems.D．It helps slow the body down.
    小题2:According to the passage, which of the following tells you need sleep?
    A．You use up a lot of energy.B．You enjoy daily activities.
    C．Your body temperature falls.D．You don’t want to get up.
    小题3:What does the underlined word "conserve" mean?
    A．provideB．moveC．saveD．spend
    小题4:What is this passage mainly about?
    A．Sleep is very important.B．The brain needs enough sleep.
    C．Good ways to sleep well.D．People use energy when sleeping

    For most people, the word “fashion” means “clothes”. But people may ask the question, “What clothes are in fashion?” And they use the adjective “fashionable” in the same way: 
    “She was wearing a fashionable coat. His shirt was really a fashionable color.”
    But of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays, in restaurants, in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs…and in languages.
    Fashions change as time goes. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past, you will see that fashions have always changed. An English house of 1750 was different from one of 1650. A fashionable man in 1780 looked very different from his grandson in 1860.
    Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly than in the past. Newspaper, radios, telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours. New fashions mean that people will buy new things, so you see there is money in fashion.
    小题1: From this passage we know that “fashion” means ______.
    A．clothes B．many things
    C．most of the popular things D．everything
    小题2:Today fashions change very quickly because _______.
    A．people read newspaper every day
    B．radios send information from one country to another
    C．new things that people like are often shown on TV
    D．people quickly learn what is happening in the world
    小题3:“There is money in fashion” means ______.
    A．clothes are expensive B．money comes from fashion
    C．people like new things D．fashions make big money
    小题4: The best title for the passage is ______.
    A．Fashions B．Fashion mean clothes
    C．Fashion means money D．A fashionable

    For many people the subject of hiccups (嗝) is a joke, but for Harry Mendes, a fifteen-year-old schoolboy from Birmingham, it was something quite different.
    His hiccups began one Sunday lunch time and continued day and night for two weeks. After the first week, Harry’s parents took him to hospital, but it took another week for the doctors to cure his attack.
    Harry, who is now back at school, described what happened to him.
    “When I began to hiccup, I drank a glass of water but that didn’t do any good. That evening I had hiccups every four seconds. We tried everything to stop them. I held my breath and drank cold drinks. My father even tried to give me a shock but that didn’t work either.”
    After a week of sleepless nights, he went to hospital. The doctors took an X-ray of his chest but they couldn’t find anything wrong.
    “They gave me some medicine and my hiccups slowed down, but it was another week before the medicine worked completely and my hiccups stopped.”
    Harry was very lucky. The world record holder is the American farmer Charles Osborne, who hiccupped for sixty-eight years. He stopped in 1990 at last, but nobody knows why.
    小题1:Harry’s hiccups lasted ____.
    A．a weekB．fourteen daysC．twenty-eight daysD．one month
    小题2:His hiccups started after he ____.
    A．drank a glass of waterB．went to hospital
    C．ate an Indian mealD．finished his homework
    小题3:His parents decided to take him to hospital when he ____.
    A．hiccupped for four secondsB．held his breath
    C．hiccupped at nightD．couldn’t stop hiccupping
    小题4:His hiccups completely stopped one week after the doctor ____.
    A．gave him some medicineB．took an X-ray of his chest
    C．gave him a shockD．let him drink cold drinks
    小题5:What does “shock” in this passage mean？
