三．阅读理解（每题3分）
My horse，Treasure，is my hero because she helped me discover how to relate to her．In the process．she“fixed’’my relationship with my husband and my children．
When I got this female horse, she was two years old，with no handling(训练)．She was not going to accept any type of dictatorship(独裁)from me．In the interest of not getting myself killed，I started to read and educate myself on ways to manage a high—spirited horse.
I discovered natural horsemanship, a method of training that focuses on communication．In order to communicate with another person，you must be understood．The very definition of understanding is two or more individuals sharing the same idea．This simple definition had a big impact on me．
When I started applying natural horsemanship concepts to my life，I noticed a change in the way other people related to me．My husband，when I stopped ordering him around，became happier and more helpful．My children．when I practiced being fair，firm and most of all， consistent，were willing to respond sooner，at a polite request from me rather than the orders I used to issue．
I think the most valuable life skill I learned from my horse is that pressure motivates，but release teaches．As soon as I applied these basic skills to my daily activities，I started to notice positive changes．My children were more considerate of each other，and started to ask first，without telling. I became well aware of my position as role model．
Today，five years later，I have the perfect horse．I also have very polite，considerate kids and a very happy husband．There is nothing in the world that can compare to being adored by the ones you love most--even if it all started with the attitude of a very special horse．

C. Before the author got Treasure, she didn’t love her husband.
D. Treasure’s coming helped the author’s family to get along better.

四．任务型阅读（每题1分）
Celebrating sleep
　　World Sleep Day, observed on 21 March, was created to bring attention to the growing number of sleep problems worldwide. Sleep is a natural part of human life, but many people in the modem world ignore its importance. As a result, sleep problems are increasingly common.
　　In 2002, scientists at the University of Athens in Greece conducted a survey of over 35,000 people in 10 countries around the world, including China, Belgium and South Africa. Of the people that responded to the survey, 24 percent said that they did not sleep well, and based on their responses, 31.6 percent were diagnosed with insomnia and another 17.5 percent were diagnosed with borderline insomnia(失眠). In addition, 30.7 percent of survey respondents reported visiting a doctor for help with sleep problems and 11.6 per cent said that they felt very sleepy during the day.
　　Overall, the survey found that ninny people suffer the effects of poor quality sleep, some examples of which are being unable to fall asleep and waking up in the middle of the night. The main factors causing these problems are pressure from school or work and a fast pace of life, but noise pollution and light pollution also interfere with sleep and contribute to poor quality sleep. The survey's findings are particularly troubling because large 'numbers of people were found to have difficulty sleeping at night. The short-term effects of this are tiredness and trouble concentrating. If this happens for a long time, the risk of gaining weight and having a heart attack may increase.
　　There are many things you can do to improve the quality of your sleep. First, you should have regular sleep habits. Try to go to bed and wake up around the same time each day. You also need to make your bedroom a cool, dark, quiet place to sleep so that heat, light and noise do not disturb you. At night, you should also avoid things that contain caffeine, such as chocolate, coffee, tea and many soft drinks, as caffeine may keep you from sleeping.
Getting a good night's sleep is important for everyone. By following the advice above, you can rest better at night and work better during the day.
