3．When I was a kid in Minnesota，watermelon was expensive．One of my father's friends，Bernie，was a rich businessman，who owned a large store in St．Paul．
Every summer，when the first watermelons arrived，Bernie would call．Dad and I would go to Bernie's place．We'd sit on the edge of the dock（碼頭），feet dangling（搖晃），and got ready for a big meal．
Bernie would take his knife，cut our first watermelon，hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us．Then we'd bury our faces in watermelon，eating only the heart-the reddest，juiciest，firmest，sweetest，most seed-free part-and throw away the rest．
Bernie was my father's idea of a rich man．I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman．Years later，I realized that it was not Bernie's wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked．Bernie knew how to stop working，get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon．
What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind．Some of us，no matter how much money we have，will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon．If you don't take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life's small pleasure，your work is probably hurting your life．
For many years，I forgot that lesson I'd learned as a kid on the loading dock．I was too busy making all the money I could．
Well，I've relearned it．I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day．That's the heart of the watermelon．I have learned again to throw the rest away．
（1）We learned from the second paragraph that the writer and his father were feeling．
（2）How did the writer and his father eat the watermelon？A．relaxed B．worried C．hungry D．proud ．
A．They ate it in a polite way．
B．They only ate its best part．
C．They ate every part of it．
D．They shared only one piece．
（3）In the eyes of the writer's father，Bernie．
（4）The underlined part"the heart of the watermelon"in the last paragraph refers toA．was just a rich businessman B．worked hard all the time C．lived a rich but healthy life D．knew how to make money ．
（5）It can be learned from the passage thatA．the best part of the watermelon B．the writer's busy life C．the writer's decision of making money D．the writer's hope of enjoying life ．A．one has to work hard to reach his goal B．a(chǎn) friend in need is a friend in deed C．watermelon is the healthiest fruit D．one should keep work-life balance． 組卷：32引用：3難度：0.5 -
4．If English means endless new words，difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation，you are wrong．Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language？
According to a new study by a British university，learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power．Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter（腦灰質(zhì)）．This is the area of the brain which processes information．It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles．
The study also found the effect is greater，the younger people learn a second language．A team led by Dr．Andrea Michelle，from University College London，took a group of Britons who only spoke English．They were compared with a group of "early bilinguals" who had learnt a second language before the age of five，as well as a number of later learners．Scans showed that grey matter density （密度） in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language．But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language，the smaller the difference is．
"Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language，" said the scientists．
It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn．
Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills．" Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible （靈活的），" he said， "You are actually going beyond（超出） language and have a better understanding of different ideas．"
The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and thirty-four．Reading，writing and comprehension were all tested．The results showed that the younger they started to learn，the better． "Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world．" explained the scientists．
（1）If people learn other languages，what will be changed？
A．grey matter
B．white matter
C．exercise
（2）What does the word "bilingual" probably mean in Chinese？
A．詞匯學(xué)
B．雙語學(xué)習(xí)者
C．口語交際
（3）According to the passage，which of the following is NOT true？
A．Learning other languages can make you become smarter．
B．A second language can lead to an increase in your brain power．
C．Grey matter density in the brain was worse in bilinguals than that in people without a second language．
（4）In the last two paragraphs，the writer wants to tell us that．
A．Italian is the best choice for you to learn as a second language
B．learning a second language is the same as studying math
C．early learning of a second language helps you a lot in studying other subjects
（5）We may know from the scientific findings that．
A．the ability of learning a second language is changing all the time
B．the earlier you start to learn a second language，the higher the grey matter density is
C．the experience of learning a second language has bad effect on people's brain組卷：8引用：2難度：0.5

5．What would you do if you felt anxious（焦慮的）？Would you feel better if someone else could share his or her experiences with you？In the United States，two teenage girls set up a mental health camp called" Healing（治愈） Hearts" to help people deal with anxiety．

The " Healing Hearts" camp was created to "help deal with anxiety，especially with girls in high school because that's when they are the most vulnerable（脆弱的），" Janet Martinez said．
On the first day of the camp，10 girls were there．Experts at the camp talked about anxiety．They
helped girls who were experiencing anxiety．The girls learned how to calm themselves when they are
anxious．They learned about calming methods like deep breathing and guided mediation （調(diào)節(jié)）．
" It's good to know that someone else is going through the same thing as me and we can both help
each other out，" Dinah Martinez said．
