We can see waste everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don't agree with them.

Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources（资源）, we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal（煤） or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.

In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need and so on. Little by little, we will change everything. We can stop waste one day, if we do our best.

（1）From the passage we know that some students often _______ in the school.

My name is Jackson. I'm a great reader with good memory. I remember almost everything I read. But I don't like to speak in class. When Mr.

Knoll announced an oral book report, the idea of going up and having my classmates staring at me while I talked filled me with anxiety.

As for the date, if the book report was due in two weeks, I would do it right then. Mr. Knoll, though, gave us a month to get the report ready, so I thought I had plenty of time.

Finally, I chose Fire-Hunter by Jim Kjelgaard. It looked really interesting. I read the first few pages and then I set it aside. I wasn't worried. I had plenty of time. Then the book got buried in the clutter(杂物) in my room.

Before I knew it, the date of the book report was a week away. Some kids had already finished.

I was in a panic. I raced home and found the book. Trembling(颤抖)，I turned to the back and discovered there were 218 pages! I read like crazy.

The last day came. When Mr. Knoll called on me to give my report, I still had eighty pages to go.

The class looked sorry for me when I pulled myself forward. They could see my fear.

"My book is Fire-Hunter, by Jim Kjelgaard," I began slowly. Then I started to tell the story and the class seemed interested. To my surprise, I discovered I was enjoying myself. However, I had no idea how the book ended. I really didn't know what came over me. I made up the rest of the story on the spot.

The class loved it, and applauded as I finished.

At break time, Mr. Knoll called me over. "You know, Jackson, I don't really remember the book ending that way."

I gulped(倒吸气).

"You told a pretty good story," he continued. "The assignment was an oral book report. You did a great job on the oral part."

"Uh, thanks," I said.

"When you actually finish Fire-Hunter, please come to me and give me the book report.

"Yes, I definitely will," I said. I knew I would never make that mistake again.

The human body is a machine that can raise lots of interesting questions. Why, for example, are yawns (呵欠) contagious (传染的)? What's up with ice-cream headaches? Here are answers to these and other questions about our bodies.

Why do I get a headache when I eat ice cream too quickly?

Scientists aren't exactly sure what causes the brain freeze when we eat ice cream or other super cold foods too quickly, though some believe it's the result of changed blood .flow in the nervous system. Blood vessels in the head tighten to stop the loss of body heat and then relax to let blood flow rise; that sudden rush of blood is what causes the headache. You can improve an ice-cream headache by rapidly rubbing your tongue across the roof of your mouth to help warm up things.

What causes my stomach to make a low continuous noise when I'm hungry?

Actually, your stomach makes noise whether you're hungry or full; you just hear it more clearly when you're hungry. Think of your digestive tract(消化道)as a really long tube lined with smooth muscle tissue. These muscles move food, fluids and gas through your digestive tract. ___________. It can make you feel embarrassed(尴尬的)but is nothing to worry about.

Why do I blush when I'm embarrassed?

When you're embarrassed, your brain releases a shot of adrenaline(肾上腺素), which makes your heart race and blood vessels become larger in size. All this happens to increase blood flow and oxygen delivery throughout the body in a fight-or-flight reaction(对抗反应). There are a lot of tiny blood vessels in your face, which turn noticeably redder from this sudden rush of blood. As for the actual function of blushing, researchers are still trying to find that one out.

Why are yawns contagious?

Have you ever yawned in front of someone, only to have them yawn right back? It's a common thing, but researchers don't have a good explanation for it. They do, however, know this happens only with humans and chimpanzees(黑猩猩). A bigger question puzzling scientists is why we yawn at all. It used to be thought that yawning showed that oxygen to the brain was not enough, but that's just a myth. A growing body of research now shows that yawning is nature's way of keeping our brains cool.

（1）What is the meaning of the underlined word tighten?

A . 变松

B . 变紧

C . 变短

D . 变长

（2）Which of the following sentences can be filled in the blank?

A . And that's what you're hearing when your stomach makes noise.

B . And that's why you're so hungry when your stomach is empty

C . And that's what makes you feel uncomfortable when you're full.

D . And that's how it makes a difference to your digestive tract.

（3）Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A . There is no way for you to improve an ice-cream headache.

B . Researchers have found out the actual function of blushing.

C . Your stomach makes noise only when you are hungry.

D . Researchers don't have a good explanation for why yawns are contagious.（4）What is the best title of the passage?

A . Some Interesting Facts

B . Our Strange Body

C . Some Useful Discoveries
