3．Mom was cooking in the kitchen.She could hear the girls arguing in the living room.It was the third time this week that the sisters had been arguing over nothing.A few minutes later，Maria rushed into her bedroom angrily and closed the door heavily.
"Come to the kitchen，young lady，" Mom firmly （坚定地） said to Maria in her best mother tone （语气） of voice.
Maria walked into the kitchen and shouted， "I can't stand living with Felicia another minute.I don't ever want to talk to her again!"
Mom called out， "Felicia，come to the kitchen right now."
While Felicia was on her way，Mom put two chairs opposite to each other but very close together. "Maria，you sit here and Felicia，you sit there." The girls sat face to face，with their knees almost touching. "Now you look each other in the eye for five minutes，" Mom ordered.
At first the girls moved their bodies from side to side.Mom said firmly， "You must stay staring at each other for five minutes.Each minute you don't make eye contact means another minute sitting in the chairs." They both wanted out，so they had to sit there and look at each other.

4．When things get wildly busy in the morning，some people don't have breakfast in order to save time.But that may be a big mistake for students.Whether at home，on the way to school or at school，eating something healthy for breakfast may help a student get better grades.
Researchers looked at 5，000 9-to-11-year-olds from more than 100 primary schools in the UK.They looked at what the students ate for breakfast and then their grades.And 6 to 18 months later，they found that the students who ate a healthy breakfast were twice as likely to perform above average in educational activities.The researchers also found that unhealthy breakfasts—such as potato chips or a donut did not appear helpful to educational performance.In 2013，an organization in the United States，also looked at possible connections between breakfast and students' success in school.They found that on average students who ate breakfast provided by their school attended 1.5 more days of school per year.These students also scored 17.5 percent higher on standardized math tests.
Health experts suggest that the best breakfast is a mix of complex carbohydrates （碳水化合物），protein and fat.This gives your body the energy it needs to think clearly and to remember what it learns.Wholegrain bread is an example.The report explains that the brain needs glucose （葡萄糖） to work well.Simply eating a breakfast rich in carbohydrates may make a student tired.So，adding protein helps to prevent fatigue （疲劳）.Having a protein such as milk，yogurt，eggs or meat can help students to feel full longer.Oatmeal （燕麦片），the researchers say，is an example of a breakfast that is rich in fiber and protein.It releases energy slowly because it is a wholegrain food.So，students will feel full longer.
Health experts also suggest not eating too much for breakfast.This can also make a person feel tired and unable to think clearly.They say eating between 350 and 500 calories in the morning is a good amount of energy to start the day.
（1）What's the main purpose of Paragraph 1？
A．To analyze why breakfast is ignored （忽略）.
B．To lead in the main topic of the text.
C．To stress the effect of eating healthily.
D．To share a common mistake among students.
（2）How did the researchers carry out the researches？
A．By asking about students' living habits.
B．By providing students with free healthy breakfast.
C．By asking students to fill in varieties of forms.
D．By following and comparing students' breakfast and grades.
（3）Which is the best breakfast choice according to health experts？
A．Wholegrain bread and some juice.
B．A donut，an egg and a glass of milk.
C．An egg，a glass of milk and some potato chips.
D．Wholegrain bread with beef and a bowl of oatmeal.
（4）What is the text mainly about？
A．The way of cooking a large breakfast.
B．The importance of having a good breakfast.
C．How to stay energetic throughout the day.
D．How much breakfast we should eat each day.组卷：10引用：1难度：0.5
