A girl went to her father to ask for his suggestion. She was having a        time in life, and it seemed that as soon as one problem disappeared another one         in its place.
Her father, a chef, took her into the kichen. He poured water into three pans and put them on to boil. After the water boiled, he put some carrots into the first pan, some         into the second pan and coffee into the last one. He waited without saying a word.
After 20 minutes, her father turned         the stove(爐子), took out the carrots and the eggs and put them in a bowl. He poured the coffee into a cup.
He asked his daughter, “Dear,         do you see?”
“Carrots, eggs, and coffee”, she replied.
“Touch the carrots,” he told her. She did and felt that the carrots were       . After that he asked her to take an egg and break it. She found that the egg was hard.       , her father asked her to taste the coffee.
She asked, “What’s the          , Father?”
Her father said, “As you see, each thing reacted(起反應) differently to the boiling water. The strong and hard carrots became soft and weak after boiling. The fragile(脆弱的) eggs became hard after being cooked. The coffee beans were very special, but they changed in the water, too.”
“Who are you?”asked her father. “When trouble          at your door, how do you react? Are you carrots, eggs,          coffee?”

A recent research shows that physical activity(體育活動) may help students do better in their classes. The research comes because educators in some countries are reducing time for activities like P.E. class.
Researchers go over the results of fourteen studies. Twelve were from the United States, one from Canada and one from South Africa. The studies appeared between 2009 and 2013. They included more than 55,000 children, aged six to eighteen.
Thomas Singh, one of the researchers, says the studies showed a relationship between physical activity and scores on subjects such as math, English and reading. Ms. Singh offers some possible explanations (解釋):
“ There are, first, physiological (生理的) explanations, like more blood flow, and so more oxygen (氧氣) to the brain. Being physically active means there are more hormones( 荷爾蒙) produced like endorphins ( 腦內(nèi)啡). And endorphins make your stress level lower and your mood improved, which means you will perform better in class. Also, students who take part in organized sports learn rules and how to follow them. This could improve their classroom behavior and help them know what they should do.
All in all, the finding tells us that physically active kids are more likely to do better in school. Ms. Singh says schools should consider the finding before they cut physical education programs. 
小題1:What led the researchers to do the studies?
A.Schools’cutting physical activity.
B.Their interest in physical activity.
C.The tests including about 55,000 children.
D.Kids’unsatisfying schooling performance.
小題2:How many countries took part in the studies?
A.14. B.12C.2. D.3.
小題3:Which of the following is NOT one of the advantages of physical activity according to the passage?
A.Getting more blood flow.
B.Better classroom behavior.
C.Feeling relaxed and refreshed.
D.Greater ability to organize activities.

The more books you read, the better your life will be. If you don’t believe me, please consider the following reasons to read more books.

You will have strong brain power .Studies suggest reading makes you smart. Unlike watching television, which requires no thought process(過程), reading is an active learning experience that will keep your mind sharp (even in old age).   
You will travel to a new world . Sometimes our daily life can start to get boring . At times like this, I like to dive into a good fiction book, where I can forget about whatever problems are stressing me out. I’ll come back refreshed after my mini-vacation to a fresh and exciting place in the world of words.   
You will improve your vocabulary . The more words you’re able to use, the better you will become at expressing your thoughts and feelings. I couldn’t imagine how I would write articles like this if I didn’t actively aim to improve my vocabulary, because using the same few words to express myself would get awfully boring in a hurry.  
You will entertain yourself at a low price .If you’re looking for entertainment without much money, reading is your best choice. Thanks to the popularity of electronic reading devices(設備), it’s never been easier to entertain yourself for hours at a time, for the low cost of a few dollars.
You will discover surprising new ideas.  Reading introduced me to concepts (概念)like mindful eating, relaxation exercises, and the importance of loving yourself. If I didn’t read, I wouldn’t realize these ideas. If you don’t read, you will miss many surprising new ideas.  
You will become an expert(專家) in your field . Don’t you think reading articles and books by experts in your field might make you better at what you do? If you don’t learn more about your profession, then your lack of passion could be a sign that you’re in the wrong field.   
I firmly believe that reading has changed my life . I hope these reasons can encourage you to read more books.
小題1:How many reasons are mentioned in the passage?
