A
When I was in elementary school, my teachers always complained about my behavior in class. There was no doubt that I had a great deal of energy, and therefore I always talked with my classmates and sometimes I didn’t pay attention to the lessons, which always made my teachers angry. If you don’t believe me, the comments on my report cards every year can tell you the story.
In my third year of elementary school, my teacher wrote, “Neil should have a more serious attitude towards his schoolwork.” And in my fifth year, my teacher wrote, “Neil doesn’t work hard to complete his work and his compositions. He has to be encouraged and urged by his parents or teachers.” And after only a few months, my
sixth-grade teacher wrote, “Less social involvement and more academic diligence (勤奋) is in order.”
Later that same school year, my sixth-grade teacher noticed that all my book reports were about the universe. Knowing that I had a lot of extra energy, she suggested that I take advantage of after-school classes about the universe at the Hayden Planetarium.
From then on, my interest in the universe became stronger and stronger. Instead of killing my time in class, I focused my extra energy on the subject that might become my career in the future. Between the ages of eleven and seventeen, I took about eight courses on the universe. I received an attractive certificate ( 证书) on successfulcompletion of the course, signed by both the instructor and the head of the HaydenPlanetarium.
Now I am the director of the Hayden Planetarium and a research associate (合伙人) of the Department of Astrophysics at the American Museum of Natural History, both in New York City. We still offer these classes today and give out certificates of completion, which are signed by the instructor and me. Welcome to take extraclasses here.

March 21 is World Sleep Day. How’s your sleep recently?
The Chinese Medical Doctor Association asked 8,200 people in China about their sleep. More than 36.3 percent of them said they often sleep badly. The study also finds that many students have only 5 hours of sleep a day. According to the US National Sleep Foundation, teenagers need 8.5 to 9 hours of sleep every night
What cuts into their sleeping time? Homework. Also , school starts early in the morning. But bad sleeping habits also play a role.
Do you like to have a look at your mobile phone before going to bed? The survey finds that 60 percent of people check their phones before they sleep. They read news, check their WeChat (微信)and micro blog(博客) messages, or chat with QQ friends.
It’s important for us to get enough sleep. If we can’t get enough sleep, we’ll feel sleepy and think slowly. And sleepy kids are often unhappy, says a study by the US National Foundation.
103 Dates 枣
70 Mashed potatoes
56 Boiled potatoes
52 Orange juice
49 Chocolate bar
30 Whole milk
We can’t change our school time. But there are still ways to get better sleep. Stay away from soda, coffee and tea at night. They make it hard to sleep well. Leave your mobile phone and computer on your desk. Watch less TV.

What will the house of the future look like? Could it have gardens on its walls, or a pool with fish for dinner? Architects believe that they are all possibilities. The only thing for sure is that the houses will be as green as possible.
The tree house
Many architects in the world would like to build a “tree house.” Like a leaf, the surface of the house collects sunlight during the day. The energy can be used to heat water, produce electricity, and even create fresh air for the home. The “root” of the house is deep under the ground. It uses the soil to control the home’s temperature.
The Lizard house
Like a lizard (蜥蜴), changing color with the weather is the most important design of a lizard house. When it’s in the bright sun, the cover of the house will turn dark to protect it from strong heat. During dark days, it turns white and takes in as much light and heat as possible to produce energy.
Meals at home
This design is perhaps as much about the future of food production as architecture. It has gardens on the outside wall of the house. People can plant tomatoes, carrots and green tea on them. So every day in the morning, you just need to walk outside and collect your meals.
Learning from the past
Looking to the future isn’t the only way to be green. Sometimes, ancient techniques can also help cut down energy use. For example, a chimney (烟囱) can be a useful air conditioner because it is easier for hot air to flow out at the chimney.

29. We can heat water, produce electricity or create fresh air for the home _______.
A. with the root of a leafB. with the energy from sunlight
C. with the soil under the groundD. with gardens on its walls
30. What will happen to the cover of the lizard house when it’s in the bright sun?
A. It will take in light.B. It will produce energy.
C. It will turn dark.D. It will turn white.
31. A chimney can be a useful air conditioner, but it used to cause.
A. pollutionB. accident C. noise D. techniques
D
I remember the first time that I was extremely happy. I was about 8 years old when for the first time, there was a computer in the classroom. I remember that my teacher allowed each student to take turns to play various educational games on the computer. One day, I found the source code(编码)for one of these games. Without knowing or being taught any programming language, I was able to figure out some of the BASIC code. I just gave myself an infinite number of lives in the game, so I could continue playing it forever. This was also my first introduction to algebra, and I didn't even know it at the time. This was a decisive moment in my life. I was quite excited because of what I was learning and what I was able to do. As a result, I was enthusiastic for the rest of my life about self learning and computers, and I was quite happy doing them too.
I've noticed that people who are truly content with life are enthusiastic about what they do. This enthusiasm, along with good health, is the key to being happy. It also leads to self-confidence and content in life too. It may also lead to success, wealth, and achievements.
Success, wealth, or achievements can also bring some people happiness, yet I know plenty of rich people who are unhappy. I know many people with successful businesses that are not happy with what they are doing. I know people who continuously buy themselves new toys, such as cars, computers, and televisions, yet never seem content for too long. Please remember, happiness is the journey of life, not the destination.
32. The underlined word "infinite" means_______
A. big B. limitless C. normal D. small
33. The author wants to tell us through his experience in the school that ________.
A. interest is the best teacher B. children are the hope of the future
C. young people are fearless D. where there’s a will, there’s a way
34. What is the secret of happiness in the author's opinion?
A. Success and wealth. B. Gifts and self-confidence.
C. Enthusiasm and good health. D. Knowledge and achievements.
35. We can infer from the last paragraph that ________.
A. people who are rich and successful in career generally feel unhappy
B. wealth can’t bring people any happiness and comfort
C. one will feel unhappy once he has gained all the things that he wants
D. being enthusiastic about what you do is more important than wealth
