Usually, students are not encouraged to run or jump around in the corridor (走廊). However,students in a British grammar school really enjoy running on the corridor tiles (瓷砖) and their teachers even encourage them to do that. Why? It is because the corridor was built with special kinetic (动能的) tiles. When students jump on the tiles, electricity will be generated ( 产生). After one year, the electricity generated from the tiles can fully charge 853 mobile phones or power(供电) an electric car to drive seven miles. It’s amazing, isn’t it? The corridor tiles are really a brilliant invention. Students can not only play on the corridor,but also help power the lights in their school corridors and other devices ( 设备) in their classrooms. Besides, this is a good way to teach students to be creative. They will be inspired to be scientists, inventors and engineers in the future to find clean energy for all humans. The inventor of the magic corridor tiles is Laurence Kemball-Cook. He was once a student in this school. Now, he is CEO of his own company. The corridor tiles are not Laurence’s only invention. He has also invented a special dance floor, which can be used at music festivals. It allows dancers to charge their mobile phones while they are dancing on the dance floor. 1.Why do the students in the passage enjoy running on the corridor tiles? A. Because the corridor tiles are expensive. B. Because the teachers ask them to do that. C. Because the corridor was built with special tiles. 2.After one year, the electricity generated from the tiles can provide enough energy for _______. A. over 800 mobile phones B. all the lights of the school C. an electric car to drive70 miles 3.The underlined word “inspired” most probably means “ _________”. A. encouraged B. forced C. trained 4.What else has Laurence invented besides the corridor tiles from the passage? A. A mobile phone. B. A music player. C. A special dance floor. 5.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? A. Students are not allowed to walk in the corridor. B. Laurence once studied in the British grammar school. C. Laurence has more than one company of his own.

What should you take in with you when you take an exam? Pen, pencil, eraser, ruler…, and don’t forget a bottle of water! According to a study at the British Psychological ( 心理学的) Society Annual Conference held in London, students who bring water into exams may improve their grades by up to 10 percent. Scientists at the University of East London and the University of Westminster, UK, did a study on 447 students. The students were studying for different degrees (学历) at the University of East London. Only 25 percent of them entered the exam hall with something to drink. Scientists then compared their exam results with their normal schoolwork grades. They found that all those who had brought drinks with them got better grades by between 2 and 10 percent. It is unclear why drinking water improves exam results. But scientists say having enough water in our bodies and not feeling thirsty could have a helpful effect on our brains. Drinking water may also cut down on anxiety ( 焦虑), which has a bad effect on exam performances, according to Chris Pawson, PhD, of the University of East London. “Whatever the explanation, it is clear that students should try hard to stay hydrated (含水的)with water during exams,” he said. So next time, when you are going to have a big exam, try bringing a bottle of water with you.Who knows – it may help you pass the exam! 1.How much may the students improve their grades most if they bring water into exams? A. By2%. B. By8%. C. By10%. D. By25%. 2.How many students in the study got better grades? A. About112 students who brought drinks or water into their exams. B. All the447 students who come from the University of East London. C. About300 students who took part in the study. D. About10 percent of the students who studied different subjects. 3.The underlined phrase “cut down on” probably means _______. A. increase B. bring C. reduce D. change 4.According to the passage, how does water help students in exams? a. It is good for their brains. b. It makes students smarter. c. It helps students stay cool. d. It helps students stay awake. A. a b B. a c C. b c D. c d 5.Where can you probably read the article? A. Fashion magazine. B. Text book. C. Travel guide. D. Newspaper.
