Passage 1
Beauty sleep is a real thing, researches have shown that people who have enough sleep look more attractive to others.

show.
The researchers asked 25 university students to join in their sleep experiment. They were asked to get a good night's sleep for two nights.
A week later, they were asked to sleep for only four hours every night for two nights in a row. The researchers took make-up free(素颜) photos of the volunteers after both the good and the bad sleep.
Next, they asked 122 strangers to have a look at the photos and judge(评价) them on attractiveness, health, and sleepiness, as well as asking them,“How much would you like to make friends with this person in the picture?”
The strangers were good at judging if the person they were looking at was tired, and, if they were sleepy, their attractiveness score was low.
The strangers also said they wouldn't want to socialize with the tired students. The researchers say this is natural for people. An unhealthy-looking face makes people run away. In other words, people don't want to hang around with people who might be ill.
Dr.Brewer, an expert at the University of Liver-pool said, “Judgement of attractiveness is often un-conscious(无意识的), but we all do it, and we are able to judge on even something small like whether someone looks tired or unhealthy. This study is a good reminder of how important sleep is to us.”

Passage 2
What do you want most after playing football or a great deal of physical exercise on a hot afternoon? A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful of what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for our health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!
But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.
Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.

Ⅲ.回答问题
In a tree in a forest, there lived a lot of birds.
Before the rainy season, the birds tried their best to do things to make their home safe.
Some of the birds collected branches and leaves while other birds built their nests. They also stored some food for their children. They kept themselves busy preparing for the difficult times.
Soon the rains came. It was followed by thunder and lightning. But the birds were not afraid of them because they made full preparation. One day, a monkey that got wet in the rain came into the forest. He sat on a branch, shaking with cold.
The poor monkey tried his best to get shelter(庇护), but failed. The leaves were not enough to protect him from the rains.
The birds were watching what had happened to the poor monkey. They felt sorry for the monkey but there was little that they could do for him. One of them said, “Brother! Our small nests are not big enough to give you shelter.”
Another bird said, “All of us prepared for the rainy season. If you had prepared for it, you would not be in this bad situation.”
“How dare you tell me what to do?” said the monkey. He angrily tore up the bird's nest and threw it on the ground.
The poor bird thought, “Fools never value good advice. It is better not to give them advice.” Then the bird flew, leaving the monkey alone in the cold rain. No one knew what would happen to the monkey.
