So many teenagers suffer from stress（压力）. The good news is that there are some simple ways to 47 stress.‎ Firstly, eating a healthy diet, getting enough sleep and doing exercises are very important. How can we be happy if we are not fit? For school work, planning 48 can help. Making a list of the things they need to do and planning when to do them can help students 49 their time.

Reading Comprehension （阅读理解）：（共50分）‎ A. Choose the best answer.(根据短文内容，选择恰当的答案)：（共12分）‎ When people put their hands in their pockets, they rarely realize they are using an invention that is only a few hundred years old. For several thousand years, human clothing did not have pockets of any kind. People tied a string, usually of leather, around the neck of a purse to keep things from falling out. These purses were usually tied onto belts. Thieves would try to cut these strings to steal the purses.‎ Near the end of the 1500s, men began to ask for slits(裂口) in their trousers exactly where we have side pockets today. A man still tied the strings of his purse to his belt, but then he pushed the purse through the side slit in his trousers. This made it more difficult for a thief to steal the purse.‎ These purses were also known as pockets even though they were not yet connected to trousers. We don’t know who thought out how to put this pocket into side seam(接缝) and made it a part of the trousers for ever. The invention made it easier and quicker to get something from the pocket. No longer did a man have to tie a purse from his belt and then undo the string around it.‎ Shortly after the pocket became a part of trousers for ever, people began to want pockets in other clothes as well. Both women and men asked for them in coats and so on. But they had to take two hands while reaching into the pocket. Finally, people asked for pockets at the hip(臀部) so that it would only take one hand to use the pocket.‎ Travelers in the days of first pockets had journey from town to town in carriages(马车). They began to ask for secret pockets so they could hide small expensive things from the robbers. The robbers could not always find a secret pocket inside a piece of clothing. Today, business jackets for both men and women still have these inside pockets to protect them.‎ Modern travellers sometimes still use purses like those of long ago. Today tourists can buy small, flat bags around the neck or waist for their passports and money. Then, even if thieves steal briefcases or women’s handbags, tourists will still have the most important papers and money in need. ‎ Three purposes have shaped the history of pockets. The first is safety. To prevent theft, pockets have been inside business jackets as secret places for expensive things. Pockets also developed because people wanted to reach money, keys, pens, tissue and other items quickly and easily. The third purpose of pockets was the last one to develop. ‎ ‎69. People have had pockets in their clothes ________. ‎ A) since 150 years B) since 1500 ‎ C) for a few hundred years D) for several thousand years ‎70. People began putting their purses in side slits in their trousers because ________. ‎ A) it was harder for the purses to be stolen B) the purses were less likely to be lost C) they didn’t like the purses tied to belts D) robbers could hardly see the purses ‎71. People started asking for pockets in trousers for ever because ________.‎ A) people were able to warm their hands B) this made it easier to get to the pocket ‎ C) it was hard to find the leather to make purses D) it was cheap to have pockets than to make purses.‎ ‎72. Pockets kept people’s things safe. What is another reason why people liked pockets?‎ A) Pockets were nice to look at B) Pockets were never be lost C) Pockets hold more than purses D) Pockets were easier to use ‎73. Which of the following statements is NOT true? ‎ A) Some tourists put passports and money in small, flat bags.‎ B) Both women and men asked for pockets in coats and so on.‎ C) Safety is the last purpose of pockets to develop.‎ D) Nobody knows who first made the pockets.‎ ‎74.

Colours in them seem to be mainly used to p 81 themselves.‎ Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫), but birds cannot e 82 catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours with the changes of the colours of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change into the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests whose colours are different from plants are easy to be f 83 and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for live and appear only at night.‎ If you study the animals’ life, you’ll find the m 84 use of colours. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests.

In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them .Our purpose is to fit them for life.‎ In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable(时兴的）to think that by free education for all--whether rich or poor , clever or stupid --one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees ,they refuse to do what they think "low "work and , in fact ,work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries .But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated , farmer is far more important than that of a professor, we can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one ‎ cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible diseases in our towns...‎ In fact , when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life , it means that we must be educated in such a way that , firstly each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and ,secondly that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society , and that is very bad to be ashamed of one's work .
