Some people think that they will get ill if they use their brains (大脑) too much. It
is not true. Through many studies, scientists show us that the more you use your brains,
the better it will be, and the cleverer you will become.
Of course, if you want to keep your mind clear and active, you must take a proper
rest and study properly. To the teenagers, using their brains in the morning is good for
their health.
There are many ways to rest. One is a peaceful rest. Sleep is a peaceful rest.
Another is an active rest. For example, take a walk outdoors, do more exercise every day.
To change the way of the brains’ activities is also a good way to rest.
In everyday life, to eat some eggs, meat, fresh vegetables and fruit is also good for
the brains.
Wish you a wise man and a happy life.
58.According to the writer of the passage, our brains should be used ____.
A. hardly B. seldom C. more often D. at times
59.Which of the following sentences is not true?
A. Sleep is a kind of a good rest.
B. Doing morning exercises is a peaceful rest.
C. Going out for a rest is an active rest.
D. There are different activities for a good rest.
60.Which is true?
A. Illness comes from the fact the brains are used too much.
B. Fruits are the most important for the brains.
C. The brains will be better if they are used often.
D. Sleep is the only way of having a rest.

Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is
not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard
for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here are some advice for
you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).
Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your
parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t
express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you
understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If
you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.
Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something.
You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael’s mother
didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally
came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.
Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations,
it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will
keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are
probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and
why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.
A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is
worth having a try!
62. The passage tells us _______ have a communication problem.
A. parents and other people
B. school kids and their parents
C. teachers and their students
D. parents and children of all ages
63. The underlined phrase “bridge” in the passage means “_______”.
A. 削除
B.建立 C. 到达
D. 通过
64. How many pieces of advice does the writer give us to bridge the generation gap?
A. 2 B.3 C.4 D.5
65. From the passage we learn that _______.
A. parents and children should not have a generation gap
B. parents should show love and respect to their children
C. there are some good ways to bridge the generation gap
D. there are so many serious problems in families today
