题目内容

Most young people 21 some form of 22    activity.  It may be walking, cycling,or swimming, or in winter, skating, or skiing. It may be a game of some kind—football, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering. (登山运动) Those who have a 23 for climbing high and difficult mountains are often 24 with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to 25 cold and hardship, and to take 26 on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the 27 between mountaineering and other forms of activity 28 which men 29 their leisure (空闲的) time. Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no manmade rules, 30 there are for such games as golf and football. There are, 31 rules of a different kind which would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from manmade rules 32 makes mountaineering 33 to many people. Those who climb mountains are 34 to use their own methods. If we compare mountaineering and other more familiar sports we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game” .We should be mistaken in this. There are , it is true, no “matches” between “teams” of climbers but when climbers are on a rock face 35 by a rope 36 which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork. The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical 37. A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year after year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis 38 are in their early twenties. 39 it is not unusual for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they probably climb with more skills and less waste of effort, and they certainly 40 equal enjoyment.

Doctors in Britain are warning of an obesity time bomb, when children who are already overweight grow up. So, what should we do? Exercise more? Eat less? Or both? The government feels it has to take responsibility for this expanding problem.
The cheerful Mr. Pickwick, the hero of the novel by Charles Dickens, is seen in illustrations as someone who is plump and happy. In 18th century paintings, beauty is equated （使…等同） with rounded bodies and soft curves. But nowadays being overweight is seen as indicating neither a cheerful character nor beauty but an increased risk of heart disease, stroke and diabetes.
So what do you do? Diet? Not according to England's chief medical officer, Sir Liam Donaldson. He says that physical activity is the key for reducing the risks of obesity, cancer and heart disease. And the Health Secretary John Reid even said that being inactive is as serious a risk factor in heart disease as smoking.
So, having bought some cross trainers, how much exercise should you do? According to Sir Liam Donaldson, at least 30 minutes of moderate activity five days a week. Is going to the gym the answer? Luckily for those who think that running machines are boring, the Health Development Agency believes that physical activity that fits into people's lives may be more effective. They suggest taking the stairs rather than the lift, walking up escalators, playing active games with your children, dancing or gardening. And according to a sports psychologist, Professor Biddle, gyms "are not making the nation fit", and may even cause harm.
There's new scientific evidence that too much exercise may actually be bad for you. Scientists at the University of Ulster have found that unsuitable exercise releases dangerous free radicals that can adversely （oppositely） affect normal function in unfit people. The only people who should push their bodies to that level of exercise on a regular basis are trained athletes.
So, should we forget about gyms and follow some expert's advice to reduce sedentary （久坐不动的） activities and increase exercise in our daily life? After all, getting off the bus a stop early and walking the rest of the way can't do any harm! One final thought. How come past generations lacked gym facilities but were leaner and fitter than people today? 
小题1:Mr.Pickwick and the paintings of the 18m century are used as examples to show that_____.
A．beauty should be overweight
B．a fat man is usually a cheerful character
C．fatness was considered something good at one time
D．fatness leads to an increased risk of disease
小题2:According to Sir Liam Donaldson, we should_____.
A．go on a dietB．do regular physical activity
C．give up smokingD．go to the gym
小题3:The underlined phrase cross trainers probably refers to _____.
A．people who help you do exerciseB．places where you can do exercise
C．a kind of shoesD．a form of vehicles
小题4:At present being overweight indicates _____.
A．an increased risk of diseasesB．a happier life
C．a cheerful characterD．a beauty
小题5:What is the passage mainly about?
A．how to keep fit and avoid fatness.B．increased risks for overweight people.
C．the dangers of exercise in the gym.D．the benefit of a balanced diet.
In the past, the affairs happening inside one country had little influence on other countries, even the neighboring ones. Therefore, incidents of food safety only affected and spread within one country, one city, one island or one village. However, with globalization, goods and products can almost flow freely between countries, regions, and continents. So the food safety problem is therefore no longer a national or regional issue, but rather a global one．
In 1997, Avian Influenza caused widespread panic in Hong Kong．It is said that the Avian Influenza originated from Shenzhen. Some Hong Kong people blamed the chicken farm staff on the mainland for the outbreak. The staff was accused of not thoroughly checking the health condition of the chicks under their care. It resulted in Hong Kong people's anger towards chicken farm staff in Shenzhen, whose supposed negligence(疏忽)contributed to the later spread of Avian Influenza in Hong Kong．
Worse still, in Germany, people have been warned not to eat cucumbers until tests can identify the source of a deadly E. coli outbreak. The scare has spread across Europe, with 16 people so far having been killed．In many people's minds, European countries have the strictest standards and checking procedures on their food safety. But the E. coli cucumber incident brought home the reality that it was not an effective defense against such an outbreak．
These diverse food safety issues from various parts of the world are enough evidence that food safety problem is not endemic in China. In fact, food safety is not even directly related to the development level of a place, thanks, no doubt, to the connectivity of our age. If we do not maintain our vigilance(警惕), people's confidence in food safety can be destroyed instantly—even in a developed country
小题1:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Nowadays, food safety incidents spread inside one country
B．In 1997, Avian Influenza caused great fear in Hong Kong
C．16 Germans died of deadly E. coli after eating cucumbers
D．Food safety is only related to the developing countries
小题2:The underlined word "endemic" in the last paragraph most probably means "______"
A．seriousB．commonC．urgentD．unique
小题3:We can infer from the passage that ______
A．food safety problems spread from one country to another
B．the staff of a Shenzhen chicken farm caught Avian Influenza
C．the strictest standards protected European people from getting E. coli
D．China is a country where food safety problem is related to people's age
小题4:Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A．Food Safety Problem Is a Global Issue
B．Cucumbers Are Popular in European Countries
C．Avian Influenza Originated from Shenzhen
D．Food Safety Issues Are Various from Country to Country
Given that many people's moods (情绪)are regulated by the chemical action of chocolate, it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made the chocolate shop similar to a drug store of Chinese medicine. Looking like a setting from the film Charlie&the Chocolate Factory, Singapore's Chocolate Research Facility (CRF) has over 100 varieties of chocolates.its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents' corner store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.
If the CRF seems to be a smart idea, that's because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi's and Sony. That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored(味道)chocolates.
The CRF's produce is "green". made within the country and divided into 10 lines, with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series一with Sichuan pepper, red bean (豆).cheese and other flavors一also does well and is fun to taste. And for chocolate snobs，who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate than others, the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo, Cuba, Venezuela , and Ghana, among others.
小题1:What is good about chocolate?
A．It serves as a suitable gift.
B．It works as an effective medicine.
C．It helps improve the state of mind.
D．It strengthens business relations.
小题2:Why is Chris Lee able to develop his idea of the CRF?
A．He knows the importance of research.
B．He learns form shops of similar types.
C．He has the support of many big names
D．He has a lot of marketing experience.
小题3:Which line of the CRF produce sells best?
A．The Connoisseur Series.
B．The Exotic Series.
C．The Alcohol Series.
D．The Sichuan Series.
小题4:The words "chocolate snobs" in Paragraph 3 probably refer to people who
A．are particular about chocolate
B．know little about cocoa beans
C．look down upon others
D．like to try new flavors
Research has shown that music has an important effect on one’s body and psyche (心灵). In fact, there is a growing field of health care known as music therapy(治疗), which uses music to treat diseases. Even hospitals are beginning to use music therapy. This is not surprising, as music affects the body and mind in many powerful ways.
Research has shown that quick music can make a person feel more alert（警觉戒备）, while slow music can produce a calm, deep thinking state. Also, research has found that music can change brainwave activity levels. This can help the brain to change speeds more easily on its own as needed, which means that music can bring lasting benefits to your state of mind, even after you’ve stopped listening.
Breathing and heart rates can also be influenced by music. This can mean slower breathing, slower heart rate. This is why music and music therapy can help reduce the damaging effects of long-term stress, greatly promoting (促进) not only relaxation, but health.
Music can also be used to bring about a more positive state of mind by helping to keep worries away. Music has also been found to bring many other benefits, such as lowering blood pressure and reducing the risk of strokes（中风）. It is no surprise that so many people are considering music as an important tool to help the body become or stay healthy.
小题1:What can we infer about music therapy(治疗)?
A．It is a type of music.
B．It is a research about music.
C．It is a kind of musical effect on diseases.
D．It is the use of music method to help treat diseases.
小题2:According to the second paragraph, we can know that ________.
A．music with different speeds has different effects
B．quick music is not good for one’s health
C．slow music can help one to think more calmly and slowly
D．music will have less benefit after one stops listening
小题3:The reason why music can help deal with stress is that ________.
A．it is used by many hospitals
B．it can help change brainwaves
C．it does good to breathing and heart rates
D．it can bring a more positive state of mind
小题4:According to the passage, music can help deal with all the following EXCEPT ______.
A．nervousnessB．mind illnesses
C．strokesD．high blood pressure
“Drink your milk. It’s good for you!” You’ve probably heard that many times, and it’s true. Milk contains calcium, which is a necessary nutrient for keeping bones and teeth healthy and strong. The U.S. government even requires milk as part of the National School Lunch Program, saying that students should drink one cup of fat-free or low-fat milk at each meal.
Last Thursday, however, a group of doctors asked the government to remove milk from the lunch program. The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) says, “Milk is high in sugar, high in fat and high in animal protein, all of which have negative effects on health.” “One of the only reasons people talk about dairy, or promote it, is that it is going to help build strong bones.” says Dr. Neal Barnard, president of the PCRM. There are better and healthier ways to get calcium such as eating beans, broccoli, cereals and tofu. Orange juice and soymilk that have calcium added to them also supply the nutrient.
Of course, calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth, but your genes, how much vitamin D you take in and getting an hour’s worth of exercise every day all play a part.
Some nutritionists disagree with the idea that milk isn’t important. Keri Gans, a dietitian, says, “I think it’s irresponsible to take away this beverage that children enjoy, especially among those who are unable to meet their nutrient needs for the day, and remove it from the lunch line.”
The U.S. government is studying the request of the PCRM, but a decision may be a long way off. Meanwhile, Marion Nestle, a professor at New York University, puts it best: “Milk has nutrients. Other foods have the same nutrients. It’s just a food. Like other foods, too much might be a problem.”
小题1:What is mainly talked about in the first paragraph?
A．The concern about students’ health.B．Traditional attitudes towards milk.
C．Ways to keep bones and teeth healthy.D．The practice of the U.S. government.
小题2:According to Dr. Neal Barnard, milk is preferred mainly because _____.
A．children like its tasteB．people ignore its disadvantages
C．it contains more calcium than other foodsD．the calcium in it can build up bone strength
小题3:We can learn from the text that _____.
A．bone strength is determined by many factors
B．people’s diets shouldn’t contain animal protein
C．the opinion of the PCRM will soon be accepted
D．people should turn to vegetables for calcium
Bad teeth can be painful -- and worse. They can even be deadly. Infections (感染) of the gums (牙龈) and the teeth can cause bacteria (细菌) to go into the blood system. Those bacteria can increase the chance of a heart attack and worsen the effects of other diseases. And adults are not the only ones at risk.
For example, in 2007, doctors in the Washington area said a boy died when a tooth infection spread to his brain. They said it might have been prevented had he received the dental care (牙齿保健) he needed. He was twelve years old.
Experts at the National Institutes of Health say good dental care starts at birth. Breast milk, they say, is the best food for the healthy development of teeth. Breast milk can help slow the growth of bacteria and acid production in the mouth.
But dentists say a baby's gums and early teeth should be cleaned after each feeding. Use a cloth with a little warm water. Do the same if a baby is fed with a bottle. Experts say if you decide to put your baby to sleep with a bottle, only give the child water.
When baby teeth begin to appear, you can clean them with a wet toothbrush. Dentists say it is important to find soft toothbrushes made especially for babies and to use them very gently.
The use of fluoride (氟化物) to protect teeth is common in many parts of the world. For example, it is often added to drinking water supplies. The fluoride mixes with enamel (珐琅质) , the hard surface on teeth, to help prevent holes from forming.
小题1:Which of the following can be used as the title of the passage?
A．Concerns for Healthy Teeth of the Young
B．Causes of Teeth Problem
C．Importance of Healthy Teeth of All
D．Solutions to Teeth Problem
小题2:What's the main idea of paragraph 4 and 5?
A．How to develop babies' teeth.B．How to keep babies' teeth clean

小题3:The passage indicates that ______.
A．Enamel is most widely used to protect teeth in the world
B．Breast milk can cure babies' bad teeth
C．Bad teeth may affect the health of adults and the young
D．Babies' teeth should be brushed once per day
小题4:The writer uses the boy's death as an example to show that ______.
A．not only adults but the young may suffer from teeth problem
B．the doctors should be responsible for the case
C．babies with bad teeth can easily die
D．the boy was not fed with his breast milk
As an English saying goes, “Laughter is the best medicine.” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health.
Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.
Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated (忍耐) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain.
As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.

小题4:According to the author, we should __________ in our life. 
A．laugh as much as possibleB．watch more funny films

D．Laughter is the best medicine.
A growing number of workers at Google Inc., Facebook Inc. and other employers are trading in their sit-down desks for standing ones, saying they feel more comfortable and energized. They also are motivated by medical reports saying that sitting for too long leads to increased health risks.
A standing desk sits high off the floor so a worker can either stand at it or sit on a high stool to use it. Officials at Palo Alto-based Facebook say a number of employees asked about standing desks after news articles were published about the health risks of sitting all day.
The stories cited medical studies that tied excessive sitting to increased obesity and other health problems because of factors including a drop in physical activity. A 2010 study by the American Cancer Society found that women who sat more than six hours a day were 37% more likely to die prematurely than women who sat for less than three hours, while the early-death rate for men was 18% higher. The American College of Cardiology released a study in January that found increased mortality (死亡率) among people who sat longer at home than those who didn't.
No one seems to compile statistics on the standing-desk trend. But anecdotal reports suggest Silicon Valley is embracing the movement.
Facebook officials say they have seen an upsurge in requests for standing desks to five to eight a week with a total of between 200 and 250 deployed (配置) at the company of more than 2,000 employees. Facebook also is trying out a treadmill station ─ where a worker can walk or run on a treadmill while tapping at a computer.
Google spokesman Jordan Newman said that 'many employees at Google opt for standing desks, and we offer them as part of our wellness program' though he said he didn't know the exact number.
Greg Hoy, 39 years old, asked for a standing desk shortly after joining Facebook seven months ago as a design recruiter. 'I don't get the 3 o'clock slump anymore,' he said. 'I feel active all day long.'
小题1:The underlined word “motivated” in paragraph 1 can be replaced by          .
A．frightenedB．inspiredC．missedD．discouraged
小题2:According to paragraph 3, we can know that          .
A．a drop in physical activity was the only reason why excessive sitting caused increased obesity.
B．women who sat longer were more likely to die prematurely according to a 2010 study by American College of Cardiology
C．according to the study, the early-death rate for men was 18% higher than that for women.
D．the mortality among people who didn’t sat long at home was lower than that among people who did.
小题3:According to paragraph 5, which of the following statements is true about a treadmill station          ?
A．is a computer that a worker can take along when he walks or runs
B．has been tried out by Facebook and now is very popular with other companies
C．is a place where workers can exercise while working.
D．is a treadmill on which workers can run or walk only after work
小题4:The passage mainly talks about          .
A．sitting for too long leads to increased health risks
B．standing desks have replaced sit-down ones in Facebook Inc.
C．more and more workers choose standing desks instead of sit-down ones
D．many employees at Google opt for standing desks
