世界第70亿人在菲律宾降生!
On 31 October, 2011, a baby was born in a hospital in Manila, the Philippines. It’s a baby girl with 5.5 pounds, and the world’s population reached seven billion. United Nations Population Fund (基金会) staff gave a cake to the family of newborn baby girl named Danica Camacho. The birth came a day ahead of what the United Nations had proclaimed(公布) as The Day of 7 Billion.
The Philippines is the 12th most populous country in the world. Only 50 years ago, the
Philippines’ population stood at 27.1 million. Today they are about 95 million. That’s a 250 percent jump. Such a country waits for the baby of Mary Rose Castin, the 21-year-old wife. ―I didn’t realize there were so many people,‖ said Mary Rose when she was told that the world’s population was reaching seven billion.
The world’s population didn’t hit the 1 billion until the 19th century. But only just a hundred years later, we were 2 billion strong. Every day, 382,000 babies are born all over the world. Most of the births are in countries already struggling to feed a growing number of hungry mouths. By 2100, Earth will be welcoming its 10 billionth baby.
In the world of 7 billion, large populations necessarily need more houses. Medical care will also be a serious problem. An increasing population is an environmental problem in many countries. There is not enough space, and there is too much traffic, noise and pollution. To not act now will make the problems harder to solve later. 根据短文内容,选择正确答案。

3月16日——世界睡眠日
March 16th is World Sleep Day. This year’s slogan (标语) is ―Breathe (呼吸) Easily, Sleep Well‖. Its aim is to celebrate the benefits (好处) of good and healthy sleep.
Sleep is like food for the brain. Enough sleep helps the body and brain grow and develop. According to the National Sleep Foundation in the US, adults need seven to nine hours of sleep every night. For students aged 10 to 17, a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours per night.
But many students don’t get enough sleep because of early school start times and heavy
homework. About 80 percent of middle school students don’t get enough sleep, the China Youth and Children Research Center reported. For some students, they want to sleep early, but they keep worrying about their schoolwork and can’t fall asleep quickly. For others, they may even have insomnia which might keep them awake all night.
These sleeping problems greatly affect people’s lives. Experts have shown that lack of sleep for teenagers leads to poor grades. Students without enough sleep cannot pay attention in class or do well in sports. Also, the lack of sleep may make them depressed (沮丧的).
Luckily, with good sleep habits, it is easier to fall asleep. Some of these good habits include avoiding drinks that make people excited late in the day, going to sleep at the same time each night, and sleeping in a comfortable place that is dark, quiet, and neither too warm nor too cold. 根据短文内容,选择正确答案。

C. They might feel depressed. D. They might not be able to finish their schoolwork. 23. The underlined word ―insomnia‖ means ―_______‖ in Chinese. A. 健忘症 B. 肥胖症 C. 多动症 D. 失眠症
24. Which is NOT a reason why so many students don’t get enough sleep?

杨幂《宫锁心玉》 Many believe that life has smiled on Yang Mi: at the age of 4, she got her first TV drama(剧)role; at 16, she became a model for a fashion magazine; at 18, she went to her dream college — Beijing Film Academy (学院).
Last year, the 24-year-old actress played bad girl Luo Qingchuan in the time-traveling TV drama, Palace. The drama became a big success and made Yang very famous. The number of her micro blog(微博) followers soared from several thousand to more than 3 million overnight.
