My name is Charlotte Dujardin. I'm an Olympic dressage champion (花式騎術(shù)冠軍). What is my life like? You may wonder.

I'm one of those people who need their sleep. If I don't get enough, I can be pretty sleepy. I start riding by 7:30 am and I'm usually so tired from a day's training that my head is on the pillow by 9:30 pm. I'm like an old person. I've always been a deep sleeper; not even the thought of an Olympic final keeps me awake.

I work with a personal trainer who makes sure I follow a strict diet. The things I eat must provide enough energy for my daily training. For breakfast I have eggs and bread, a chicken wrap and salad for lunch, a healthy meal of meat and lots of vegetables for dinner, plus two snacks of nuts and fruit. On days off, like normal girls, I love ice-cream.

I often work seven days a week, riding from 7:30 am till 5 pm, then training at the gym. I also teach at the weekend but the days don't feel long because I love my job very much. I have a proper holiday once a year when I don't see a horse for 10 days: I need time to rest and relax.

My family is very supportive of what I do and always come to competitions. I miss my parents and other family members but balancing (平衡) my work with the relationship with them can be difficult as I'm away a lot.

A.She looks very old. B.She wakes up very easily.

C.She needs to go to bed early. D.She gets tired easily in the daytime.

2.What does Paragraph 3 say about the author?

A.She always eats too much. B.Her trainer prepares food for her.

4.What problem does the author face in her life?

B.She doesn't have enough time to relax.

C.She can't spend much time with her family.

D.She fails to win a medal in the Olympic Games.

It is often said that eyes can speak. Do you have such kind of experience? In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. If he notices that he is being looked at, he may feel uncomfortable. It is the same in daily life. When you are looked at for several more times, you will look yourself up and down in order to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry with the person who is looking at you. Eyes can speak, right?

Looking too long at someone may seem to be impolite. But sometimes things are different. If you wish to draw someone’s attention, you may look at him or her for more than ten seconds. For lovers, they enjoy looking at each other longer to show the love that words cannot express. Clearly, eye communication should be done according to the relationship between the two people and the certain situation.

下面短文有四處需要添加首句。并完成第五小題。

How to Get Children to Stop Touching Their Faces

Kids seem like they're always touching everything in their environment, from tables and chairs to doors and stairs. Since those surfaces may hold germs(細菌), you can help your child avoid illness by encouraging them not to touch their face throughout the day.

1. Once your child is about 3 years old, you can begin having conversations with them and avoiding germs, including the importance of washing their hands and how touching their face can spread germs to their nose and mouth. While just knowing this information probably won't help them break the habit, it can help set the groundwork.

2. If you don't want to criticize(批評)your child when they forget, it is important to remind them when you see them with their hands around their face or mouth. Sometimes, just knowing that they're doing it will be enough to help them stop doing it.

3. It can be hard to remember sometimes, but look for chances to let your child know when they're doing a good job of keeping their hands away from their face. Encouraging words can be a really powerful motivation(動機)for kids to keep trying when they're learning something new.

4. Children often touch their faces or mouths without thinking about it. Many times, it's just because they're bored and they're looking for a way to excite themselves. If you think that might be the case, try giving your child a toy they can hold onto.

The passage is most probably chosen from the part of 5.in a newspaper.

A.Point out any time you see your child touching their face.

B.Health

C.Offer your child something they can hold.

D.Explain why it' important if your child is old enough.

E.Praise your child when they aren't touching their face.

F.Encourage your child to wash their face carefully.

G.Sports
