阅读理解     My grandfather was a teacher.He was the headmaster of a school for boys between the ages of thirteen and eighteen.I know that he was a kind and gentle man at heart,because when I was young (and he was
old),he gave me presents,and seated me on his knees,and told me stories,but I believe the boys at his
school were afraid of him.
     At school,when he walked into a room full of noisy boys,there was silence at once.When he looked at a boy with a certain look in his eyes,that boy went red in the face,and looked down at his shoes.If a boy
brought him poor,careless work,which was not the best that boy could do,my grandfather picked up the
boy"s book and threw it across the room,shouting,"Do it all again,and bring it back early in the morning!" If the boy was late,or if he forgot to birng the work,he had to do it again and again,and yet again.My
grandfather never forgot.

阅读理解     If there is one person who has left a deep impression on me,it"s my teacher,Mrs Pathak,who was my
class teacher for three years.In my childhood,how I wished I had a mother or a sister like her.One moment she could be tough (严厉的) and strict,another moment caring and compassionate (富有同情心的).
     She always encouraged us to tell the truth.For instance,if one had not done the homework,he need not
lie.She allowed us to make mistakes,saying we couldn"t be perfect all the time,but we should try.
     Another thing she taught me early on was punctuality.She set a good example with her own behaviour.
She was always on time,so we students tried our best to be on time.
     She surprised us with her sense of humour.Her classroom teaching was always humorous.After class,
she talked to us and told us jokes.
     We really felt free to ask questions and Mrs Pathak would give the answers.If she did not know-there had been some occasions (场合)-she would say so.We all then tried to find out the answers.Whoever
came up with the answer was appreciated and given the due credit (应有的称赞).Now I sometimes
wonder whether Mrs Pathak was pretending just to encourage us to explore and find answers by
ourselves.1. According to the passage,which of the following is NOT suitable for describing Mrs Pathak?A. Tough.

任务型阅读。
    While being laid off and entering into retirement are far from the same, they both often leave one half of a couple with extra time on their hands, and plenty of pent-up(被压制的) energy that their significant other, coming home after a long day at work, can"t handle.
WSJ.com recently wrote an article that shared a few words of wisdom on how to deal with this situation. Here are a few of their tips:
1. Be nice to each other and have a positive attitude.
   As hard as it may be, try to not be discouraged during the job search and make sure to support your spouse(配偶). If one of you says something negative, the other should try to come back with a positive. And don"t forget, compliments can go a long way.
2. Encourage your partner to take up a hobby, get a side job or join a club.
    
Typically, people work an average of forty hours a week, eight to nine hours a day. So is it any wonder that someone suddenly unemployed might go crazy with all that free time?
In order to squash the boredom before it begins, encourage your partner to stay as busy as possible. Stay healthy and join a sports team, or learn how to cook (this benefits your spouse as well).
    Another option is taking up a side job serving food or working as a sales associate. This will allow your sweetie to interact with other people as well as earn some money. But, of course, new hobbies shouldn"t take up the time needed to continue the job hunt.
3. Encourage them to continue their existing friendships and to foster(培养) new ones.
    As WSJ.com points out, those who recently lost their jobs are sometimes embarrassed and therefore shut out family and friends. They might cling(依靠)to their partners for support. Tell your wife or husband to talk to their families and friends. They know and love them, and can be a good support system (rather than a support group of one: you).
4. Give each other a little space before and after "couple time."
    You may be happy to spend time with your significant other but need a little alone time after working all day. To the recently laid off: let your partner settle down, drink a beer, and watch a little television before you bombard (发出连珠炮似的问题)him with your idea to go skydiving or white water rafting. You may have an endless amount of pent up energy, but they probably need some space to relax.
5. Trust each other.
    When everything is going great, it"s easy to be happy and to trust your partner is doing everything he should. It"s not nearly as simple when half of your income is gone. Stand by each other as a couple and trust that each of you is doing everything necessary to get another job.

     Are you tired?Do you often catch colds and flu?If so, you might consider changing your sleep habits.
Good health demands good sleep.Studies have shown that most people need eight hours of sleep each
night.Americans, however, on average, get only seven hours.Onethird of us get just six hours, and good
health is not simply a matter of how much sleep you get, but also the type of sleep you get.
     Nonrapid eye movement (NREM) sleep allows your body to grow and repair itself.During NREM
sleep, your muscles relax.Your heart rate and breathing rate decrease.Your eyes roll slowly back and
forths then they stop moving.Most of the sleeping you do is NREM sleep.
     Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep restores your brain.During REM sleep, you dream.You may not
remember every dream, but every time you sleep, you dream.Your eyes move back and forth quickly.
Your breathing rate and heartbeat increase.Your muscles become paralysed (麻痹的). About 25 percent of your sleep is REM sleep.You need enough of both kinds of sleep to be healthy.
     Is it a real concern if you don"t get enough good sleep?It certainly is.Poor sleep puts you and others at
risk.More than 100,000 car accidents are caused each year by drivers who nod off (打盹). Almost $100 billion is lost yearly in the business and environmental field.People deprived_of sleep have been factors in
the Challenger space tragedy, the Exxon Valdez oil spill (溢出), and the Chernobyl nuclear reactor
accident.So do yourself and everyone around you a favour.Don"t cheat yourself out of good sleep!
