Low-cost Gifts for Mother’s Day
Gift No. 1
Offer to be your mother’s health friend. Promise to be there for all doctor’s visits whether she has a disease or needs a regular medical check-up. Most mothers always say there is no need, but another set if eyes and ears is always a good idea at a doctor’s visit. The best part? This one is free.
Gift No. 2
Help your mother organize all of her medical records, which include the test results and medical information. Put them all in one place. Be sure to make a list of all of her medicines and what time she takes them. “Having all this information in one place could end up saving your mother’s life,” Dr. Marie Savard said.
Gift No. 3
Enough sleep is connected with general health conditions. “Buy your mother cotton sheets and comfortable pillows to encourage better sleep,” Savard said. “We know that good sleep is very important to our health.”
Gift No. 4
Some gift companies such as Presents for Purpose allow you to pay it forward this Mother’s Day by picking gifts, 10 percent of whose price you pay goes to a charity (慈善机构). Gift givers can choose from a wide variety of useful but inexpensive things — many of which are “green” — and then choose a meaningful charity from a list. When your mother gets the gift she will be told that she has helped the chosen charity.

B篇
Last year my wife and I spent a most interesting month in Turkey. Before we left, we were reminded of the difficulties of driving in Turkey. We certainly did not find this to be the case and, except for a few places in faraway mountain areas, the roads were wide, and well­paved(铺设). We drove for 12 days along the Western Coast of Turkey and had no problems at all. We found the Turkish drivers to be very polite and well educated. We also found that eating lunch in the smaller towns difficult, so we picnicked almost every day.
The following day after our arrival was Turkey’s Children’s Day, started by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk.Ataturk loved children and he often said, ＂Children are a new beginning of tomorrow.＂ He even dedicated(奉献) the day 23rd of April to the children which is celebrated as Children’s Day.
On that day certain children are picked to take over the places of the government and a lucky kid will be the president of Turkey for a whole day. He can decide what’s going to happen and whether or not he is going to have the president next to him. There are a very large number of possibilities of things he can do but some shops aren’t open because they are celebrating the day as well.
All in all, it was a more enjoyable trip. I would recommend(推荐) a trip to Turkey to anyone with an adventurous(冒险的) spirit!

C 篇
Taking a shower is relaxing. You can hum a song, daydream or think about nothing, leaving the real world behind you. But did you know that showering can also benefit your mind?
A research by Scott Barry Kaufman, a psychologist from Yale University in the US interviewed over 3,000 people around the world. It turned out that nearly two-thirds of the interviewees said they had experienced new ideas in the shower and were more likely to have them in the shower than at work.
So why does a simple shower have such magic power? Science can explain it.
Showering can help to raise our level of dopamine, a hormone (荷尔蒙) closely related to our creativity. “People vary in terms of their level of creativity according to the activity of dopamine”, explained Alice Flaherty, a famous American neuroscientist. “Taking a warm shower can make us feel relaxed and therefore make the dopamine level rise and bring ‘Aha!’ moment to us.”
Besides the chemical changes, showering may give you a break from what you feel you have been stuck with. Especially when you have thought hard all day about a problem, jumping into the shower can keep you from the outside world so that you can focus on your inner feelings and memories. In this way, according to American psychologist Shelley H. Carson, author of Your Creative Brain, “a showering hour may turn into an ‘incubation (孵化) period’ for your ideas.”
Compared with sitting in front of a computer, taking a shower is something we do less frequently in our daily life. When showering, we get a fresh experience with the change of location, temperature and humidity. “New and unexpected experiences can lead to positive changes in thinking,” explained Kaufman. “Getting off the couch and jumping in the shower may create a distance and force you to think from a new point of view.”
Showering allows us to enjoy the creative juices of our minds, but it needn’t just be the bathroom where you get your inspiration. For instance, Gertrude Stein, a female American writer and poet, got new ideas by driving around a farm and stopping at different cows until she found the one that most inspired her. So try to create your own way to free your mind, whether it’s a walk near the ocean, a country drive or reading a book at home.
8．According to the article, what changes can showering cause?
A．Bringing the terrible moment to us. B．Increasing the level of dopamine.
C．Leading to boredom or tiredness. D．Setting the creative part of the brain free.
9．If one has focused on something all day, showering can help _______.
A．turn one’s attention inwards B．draw one’s attention to the outside world
C．one make an important breakthrough D．many chemical changes to take place
10．It can be inferred from the article that _______.
A．changes in the frequency of an action can create a new perspective
B．it is a good idea to talk with others about their sources of inspiration
C．our lives might feel longer and fuller if we frequently try new things
D．it is helpful to try something different rather than stay focused on a difficult task
11．The example of Gertrude Stein in the last paragraph is used to _______.
A．encourage readers to find their own ways of getting inspiration
B．point out to readers that it's hard to find inspiration
C．explain how to link inspiration with readers’ daily lives
D．show that creativity often comes from strange places
D篇
Try this: For an entire day, forget about the clock. Eat when you’re hungry and sleep when you’re tired. What do you think will happen?
You may be surprised to find that your day is much like most other days. You’ll probably get hungry when you normally eat and tired when you normally sleep. Even though you don’t know what time it is, your body does.
These patterns of daily life are called circadian rhythms, and they are more than just habits. Inside our bodies are several clocklike systems that follow a roughly 24-hour cycle. Throughout the day and night, our inner clocks direct changes in temperature, body chemicals, hunger, sleepiness and more.
Everyone’s rhythms are different, which is why you might like to stay up late while your sister always wants to go to bed early.
Learning about our body clocks may help scientists understand why problems arise when we act out of step with our circadian rhythms. For example, traveling across time zones can make people wake up in the middle of the night. Regularly staying up late can make kids do worse in tests.
“There is a growing sense that when we eat and when we steep are important parts of how healthy we are,” says Steven Shea, director of the Sleep Disorders Program at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.
One way to learn about how our body clocks tick is to mess them up and see what happens. That’s what neurologist (神经病学家) Frank Scheer and his workmates did in a recent study.
Staying up night after night, their studies suggest, could make kids extra hungry and more likely to gain weight. And regularly sleeping too little, Scheer says, may be one cause of the recent increase in childhood obesity (肥胖).
12．What will happen if you forget about the clock according to the passage?
A．You will feel upset. B．You will behave normally.
C．Your body will not know what time it is. D．You will probably get hungry more easily.
13．What does “circadian rhythms” probably mean?
A．habits. B．body chemicals. C．clocklike systems. D．bad consequences.
14．How do Frank Scheer and his workmates study body clocks?
A．By seeing what happens when they are messed up.
B．By asking questions and collecting answers.
C．By studying people traveling across time zones.
D．By programming people with man-made clocks.
15．What will the writer most probably talk about next?
A．Other examples what happens when body clocks go wrong.
B．Medicines that can keep people from putting on weight.
C．Reasons why it is important to have a normal body clock.
D．Emphasis on what circadian rhythms are.
