Germs(细菌) are everywhere. You can't see them, but they are on your desk, on your computer, and even in the air!
Like people, germs move around the world. They fly with us on planes. When food, clothes, and other things travel around the world, germs travel, too. Some germs are safe, but some are dangerous. Germs cause illnesses like colds and the flu.
Warmer Weather Brings Germs
The world's weather is changing. Cooler countries are getting warmer, so insects from hot countries can move there. Some of these insects, like mosquitoes(蚊子), carry dangerous germs. These germs cause headaches(头疼), fever, and can even kill people.
Under Your Skin
Your skin protects you from germs. It stops some germs, but not all. They can enter your body when you eat, or when you have a cut. Germs are on your hands, too, they enter(进入) your body when you touch your eyes, nose, or mouse.
Fighting Germs
Your immune system(免疫系统) protects you, too. When germs get inside your body, your immune system finds and kills them. Special cells(细胞) move around your body and fight germs. They help you stay healthy. Other cells make antibodies. Antibodies help your body find and stop germs.
What can you do to fight germs? You should wash your hands with soap(肥皂) and water. Soap kills many germs, and water washes them away.

(1)、According to the text, insects ___________.

A、kill germs B、carry germs C、protect germs D、love germs
(2)、The underlined word “there” refers to _______.

A、cooler countries B、hot countries C、everywhere D、the world
(3)、What do antibodies do?  

A、They kill germs and wash them away. B、They find and develop germs. C、They help protect us from germs. D、They carry dangerous germs.
(4)、Which can be the best title for this text? 

A、Germs Are Everywhere B、Weather Is Changing C、Skin Stops Germs D、Germs Are Developed

    Many strong and out-of-control emotions are recognized as an illness. People who are always very sad have depression (抑郁症); those who worry a lot have anxiety.
    But what about anger problems? Anger is largely viewed as a secondary emotion – one caused by other emotions. People are thought to be angry because they are sad, anxious or stressed. In the past, many doctors didn't accept the idea that anger could be a problem all on its own.
    Today, though, a growing number of mental health experts think that anger is a serious problem that needs its own treatment.
How to tell the difference between "normal" anger and "anger problem" is difficult. After all, everyone gets really mad from time to time. Experts point out a few ways.
    Disordered anger, as it is sometimes called, tends to be of greater intensity (强度). It takes very little to set off a person with an anger problem, and their responses (反应) are very strong. An example: While most people would get upset if a driver cut them off, someone with disordered anger might try to chase down the car and force it off the road.
    And in cases of disordered anger, the person gets angry more frequently and his/her anger lasts longer. For most people, angry feelings disappear quickly. But people with anger problems often stay angry for days, weeks or even years; their feelings of anger don't disappear over time.
     Consequences are also important to consider: Disordered anger often damages people's lives. “It interferes (干扰) with people's relationships and their jobs,”says Raymond Chip Tafrate, a US psychologist. “Even their health is affected.”
Anger clearly increases the risk of certain health problems, as many studies have shown. “When a person is angry, their heart beats faster and their blood pressure goes up,”says Howard Kassinove, a professor at Hofstra University in New York. Over time, these changes take their toll on the body, he adds.
    Experts suggest that people with an anger problem take anger-management programs. The programs teach people to control their responses to stressful situations through the use of relaxation techniques. The programs sometimes include life-skills training as well: increasing someone's level of competence (竞争)– whether on the job or as a parent or partner – helps bring down stress and cut angry feelings.

阅读下面短文,从每小题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Have you ever wanted to see your dreams after you woke up? Artificial intelligence(AI) technology may help you do this in the near future!

Researchers from Osaka University in Japan have trained an AI system to recreate pictures in people's heads. The pictures AI has created include a teddy bear, an airplane and a clock tower. The technology is 80 percent accurate (准确 的),reported Science Magazine.

Previously (先前) there have been AI models that can turn a word or phrase into pictures. The AI has studied lots of pictures and their text descriptions. Over time, the AI can find patterns (模式) and recreate pictures if you first input (输入) text.

This time, the researchers took a step further. They trained the AI to link people's brain scan data (扫描数据) with pictures. They asked four people to look at 10,000 different pictures, and let the AI find patterns of blood flow in the brain. Then the patterns could be related to the pictures.

If people looked at an airplane, the AI would use the brain scan data to create a picture of a very cloudy airplane. Then, it would turn on the previous "text-to-picture" model by inputting the keyword "airplane". Finally, the AI would improve the picture and make it more real.

"It's a new method that combines textual and visual information to ‛decipher (破译) the brain', "Ariel Goldstein from Princeton University told Science Magazine.

Researchers said the technology could someday help people with paralysis (瘫痪) to communicate. It might also help scientists understand dreams or even how other animals see the world.
