阅读理解

It is back-to school time in much of the world. Calm, easy mornings are replaced with busy, hurried ones.  Many parents are also getting ready for work, helping their children and preparing food for lunch.

But, don't forget about breakfast! When things get busy in the morning, some people don't eat breakfast to save time. The parents and students must realize the mistake. Everyone should pay attention (关注) to breakfast.

As a student, you should not skip breakfast because it has something to do with your grades. Maybe you don't believe it.That is the finding of a study from Cardiff University in Wales. Researchers did a survey among 5,000 students from more than 100 primary schools in the U.K. They asked the students whether they had breakfast and what they ate for breakfast. Finally, they found out that the students who ate a healthy breakfast got better grades.

The answer is yes. Researchers say that situations are different in different countries. For example, in the United States, about 8 to 12 percent of all students in grade school do not eat breakfast. When students are in high school, 20 to 30 percent of them ignore (忽视) the morning meal.

A. Is it true that many children don't eat breakfast?

B. Children wake up early and get ready for school.

C. Here is a finding about breakfast and grades.

D. But that may be a big mistake for students.

E. Some students just have lunch at school.

F. Then they did a survey about their grades 6 to 18 months later.

B.阅读下面短文,然后根据括号内所给汉语意思写出单词的正确形式(每空一词)。

Every one of us, rich or poor, should at least have one or two friends. They are like our family {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(成员), and help us in many ways. They listen to us when we want to speak; they wipe our tears when we cry; they take care of us when we are {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (不健康的;有病的).

As students, we should spend more time with our friends. The friendship is pure, fresh and simple. It's of great {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(价值) in our young hearts.

Friendship is a kind of {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(珍宝) in our lives. It's actually like a bottle of wine. The longer it is kept, the {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(甜的) it will be. It's also like a cup of tea. When we are {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(渴的), it will be our best choice.

{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(然而;但是), more and more people forget to enjoy the beauty of life and the beauty of friendship. They work hard in order to make more money to afford what they have always {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(梦想). As a result, they have little time to enjoy life with their friends. We {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(期盼) more and more people can pay more attention to themselves and their friends. When staying with our friends, we can talk together, play together and even cry together. {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(没有一人) of us can live happily without friends.

Since humans sent the first satellite(卫星) to space in the 1950s,scientists have been studying an important topic:how to grow plants in space if humans live there one day.A recent experiment at the Tiangong space station makes a big step forward.

Chinese astronauts have successfully grown rice seedlings(幼苗) during the Shenzhou XIV mission.The researcher said,"The rice seedlings are growing very well."Since the rice experiment began on July 29,the seedlings of the tall shoot rice variety(高杆水稻品种) have reached a height of 30 centimeters.The seedlings of the dwarf rice variety(矮杆水稻品种) have grown to 5 centimeters,China Daily reported on August 30,2022.

While there have been other rice experiments in space,this one is the first of its kind to produce the complete life cycle of a plant—it begins with a seed and ends with a grown plant producing new seeds.

Such food﹣growing experiments are not for astronauts.They can solve food problems on Earth.By sending seeds to space,we can create mutated(突变的) seeds that can produce higher yields(产量)on Earth.

For more than 30 years,China has developed over 260 new types of seeds in space.They are planted on Earth every year.

According to Yao Tong,an engineer from Hainan Aerospace Engineering Breeding Research Center,30%of strawberries sold in Beijing are "space strawberries",which are as big as eggs.The center has also produced "space tomatoes"with yields increased by 30%,and "space bananas"with a growth cycle shortened from 13 months to 9 months.

请阅读下面短文,根据短文内容从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项

 "Have you ever heard that it's impossible to fold a piece of paper more than seven times? Actually, it is just a popular myth. 

The myth refers to folding a piece of paper in half many times in any direction. The paper is folded in half. Try it for yourself with a piece of notebook paper. ____ But when you make the fifth and sixth folds, you'll notice that it's increasingly hard to fold the paper. Why does it happen? Because the number of the layers (层) of paper doubles with each fold. For example, after the sixth fold, you're left with 64 layers of paper. If you have strong hands, you may be able to make that seventh fold. If you start with a piece of paper that is 0.01 centimeters thick, it'll be as thick as a notebook after seven folds. And it would seem impossible to make more folds. At this point, you may be thinking that the paper-folding myth doesn't sound much like a myth.

However, in 2002, a high school student named Britney Gallivan proved the idea wrong. Britney successfully folded a 1.20-meter-long roll of toilet paper 12 times (note that she used single-direction folding). She also developed a math rule. This is convenient. It allows you to find out the maximum (最大的) number of possible folds based on paper thickness, paper length, and direction of folding.

Since Britney's success, many people have managed to fold a single piece of paper more than 7 times. Students even folded a piece of toilet paper a total of thirteen times. The toilet paper they used was about 4,000 meters long!
