Autumn and winter are cold and flu seasons. Will the old advice about dressing warmly help prevent a cold, or if you get sick, should you follow the old saying, “feed a cold and starve a fever?” And what about that fever? Should you take medicine to reduce your temperature, or is it better to let the body treat the fever itself? Everyone seems to have an answer. But is popular wisdom valuable?
Doctor Nelson knows a lot about cold and flu seasons. Nelson says research may be just starting to provide proofs for long-held beliefs. For example, scientists for years were against the idea that getting cold and wet might cause colds or flu. But recent studies have shown that cold temperatures cause stress on the body, and that stress can create conditions more inviting to viruses. So maybe it does make sense to wrap up warmly before going outside.
And what about feeding a cold and starving a fever? Nelson says if you have a cold and are hungry, you should eat. But a fever, especially a high one, suggests a more serious problem. He says people are usually not hungry when they have a high fever. Eating might even make a person sick. But drinking enough water is important. A fever easily makes the body lose water.
Finally, when should you treat a fever? Nelson says a fever should be treated if it stays at
40℃ or above for a day or more. A high temperature can damage brain cells. The doctor also believes in treating a fever if it prevents a person from sleeping.
Medicine like aspirin, for example, can be used to reduce pain and fever. But aspirin should not be given to children because it can cause serious problems.
小题1:We can learn from the passage that Doctor Nelson________.
A.doesn’t believe in the old advice about preventing colds
B.is now trying his best to provide proofs for long-held beliefs.
C.doesn’t think it necessary to see a doctor immediately if a person has a temperature of 40℃
D.doesn’t think it necessary to treat a fever even if it prevents someone from sleeping.
小题2:According to Doctor Nelson, if someone catches a fever, he should________.
A.bathe in cold waterB.drink enough water
C.try to eat somethingD.take some exercise outside
小题3:Which of the following is Not mentioned in the passage?
A.When people should treat a fever
B.Whether the old advice about preventing a cold is valuable.
C.What the medicine , aspirin, is used for.
D.Why people should eat when having a cold.
小题4:The passage suggests that_______.
A.aspirin can damage train cells if an adult takes too much of it.
B.it is easier for people to catch colds when their bodies are stressed.
C.some old advice about preventing colds doesn’t make any sense.
D.the idea that getting cold can cause flu was proved true years ago.
Research by sociologists Scott Coltrance Michele Adams looked at national survey data and found that when men increase their share of housework and childcare, their children are happier, healthier and do better at school.What’s more, when school-aged children do housework with their fathers, they get along better with their peers and have more friends.And they show more positive behaviors than if they do the same work with their mothers.“Because fewer men do housework than women,” said Adams, “when they share the work,it has more influence on children.” Fathers model “co-operative family partnerships”.
When men share housework and childcare, it turns out, their partners are happier.Wives of egalitarian(主张人人平等的)husbands, regardless of class, report the highest levels of marital(婚姻的)satisfaction and lowest rates of depression,and are less likely to see therapists(治疗专家).They are also more likely to stay fit, since they probably have more time on their hands.
And the benefits for men are even greater.Men who share housework and childcare are healthier--physically and psychologically.They smoke less, drink less, and take recreational drugs less often.They are more likely to stay in shape and more likely to go to doctors for routine screenings, but less likely to use emergency rooms or miss work due to illness.
In both Europe and the United States,Dad is becoming the “fun parent”.He takes the kids to the park and plays soccer with the kids; she stays home.“What a great time we had with Dad!” the kids announce as they burst through the kitchen door to a lunch mum prepared.
小题1:We can infer from the first paragraph that         
A.fathers usually have greater influence on their children
B.it's better for school-aged children to do housework with their mothers
C.few boys would like to do housework
D.children benefit more from doing housework with their fathers
小题2:Which of the following is NOT true of a woman whose husband shares housework?

C.She will have more free time.
D.She is more likely to gain weight.
小题3:Men who share housework and childcare        
A.benefit physically more than psychologically
B.will take the place of women
C.are less likely to develop bad habits
D.don’t perform well at work
小题4:The passage is mainly about       
A.the new pattern of family relations in Europe and the US
B.the benefits of men’s participation in housework and childcare
C.the problems of men’s participation in childcare
D.the important role husbands play in the family

On a hill 600 feet above the surrounding land, we watch the lines of rain move across the scene, the moon rise over the hills, and the stars appear in the sky. The views invite a long look from a comfortable chair in front of the wooden house.
Every window in our wooden house has a view, and the forest and lakes seldom look the same as the hour before. Each look reminds us where we are.
There is space for our three boys to play outside, to shoot arrows, collect tree seeds, build earth houses and climb trees.
Our kids have learned the names of the trees, and with the names have come familiarity and appreciation. As they tell all who show even a passing interest, maple(枫树)makes the best fighting sticks and white pines are the best climbing trees.
The air is clean and fresh. The water from the well has a pleasant taste, and it is perhaps the healthiest water our kids will ever drink. Though they have one glass a day of juice and the rest is water, they never say anything against that.
The seasons change just outside the door. We watch the maples turn every shade of yellow and red in the fall and note the poplars’(杨树)putting out the first green leaves of spring. The rainbow smelt fills the local steam as the ice gradually disappears, and the wood frogs start to sing in pools after being frozen for the winter. A family of birds rules our skies and flies over the lake.
小题1:What can be learned from Paragraph 2?
A.The scenes are colorful and changeable.
B.There are many windows in the wooden house.
C.The views remind us that we are in a wooden house.
D.The lakes outside the windows are quite different in color.
小题2:By mentioning the names of the trees, the author aims to show that ______ .
A.the kids like playing in trees
B.the kids are very familiar with trees
C.the kids have learned much knowledge
D.the kids find trees useful learning tools
小题3:What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?
A.The change of seasons is easily felt.
B.The seasons make the scenes change.
C.The weather often changes in the forest.
D.The door is a good position to enjoy changing seasons.
小题4:What is the main purpose of the author writing the text?
A.To describe the beauty of the scene around the house.
B.To introduce her children’s happy life in the forest.
C.To show that living in the forest is healthful.
D.To share the joy of living in the nature.

Jean's father was a farm plane pilot in the little farming community in Northern California where she was raised, and _36_Jean was totallyattracted by airplanes and flying.
In her senior year of high school, her English teacher was Mrs. Dorothy Slaton. Mrs. Slaton was a _37_, demanding teacher with high standards and a low _38_ for excuses. She refused to treat her students like _39_, instead expecting them to behave like the _40_ adults they would have to be to succeed in the real world after graduation. Jean was _41_ of her at first but grew to respect her firmness and fairness gradually.
One day Mrs. Slaton gave the class a written _42_. "What do you think you’ll be doing 10 years from now?” Jean’s dream was to be a pilot like her father, but as the years went by, she had been beaten down by the _43_ and negative words she got whenever she talked about her career, so she unwillingly gave it up and wrote something else. Mrs. Slaton collected the papers and nothing more was said. Two weekslater, the teacher handed back the assignments, _44_ the students to face it down on the desk, and asked this question: "If you had enough finances and unlimited _45_, what would you do? Please write it on the _46_ of your previous assignment paper.”
When the students stopped writing, the teacher asked, "How many of you wrote the same thing on _47_ sides of the paper?" Not one hand went up.
The next thing that Mrs. Slaton said changed the course of Jean’s life. The teacher leaned forward _48_ her desk and said, "I have a little secret for you all. You do have _49_ abilities and talents. You do have access to the finest schools, and you can arrange plenty of finances if you want something _50_ enough. This is it! When you leave school, _51_ you don’t go for your dreams, no one will do it for you. You can have _52_ you want if you want it enough.”
What her teacher said touched Jean so much! In the following years, she tried her best to realize her dream of becoming a pilot. Although it didn’t happen _53_, she finally became one of the first three female pilot trainees ever _54_ by United Airlines. Today, Jean Harper is a Boeing 737 captain.
It was the power of one well-placed _55_ word that gave that uncertain young girl the strength and faith to pursue her dream.

While applying to college may seem easy, getting in can be tough! When you apply for college, you will have to be honest with yourself and do a bit of research to find the right fit. Here are three steps to take when applying to colleges for the best chances at getting into the best college for you.
Step l: Making A List Of Colleges To Apply To
With over 6,000 colleges in the United States, the first step in applying to college is to do some research and make a college list .This process will be different for everyone. The number of colleges you apply to can vary, from applying  to 1 school (not recommended) to 30 schools (not recommended),each applicant can choose how many colleges they apply to. Many limit the number because applications are accompanied by a fee.
Step2: Splitting The List Into Target, Reach and Safety Schools
In general, students will want to apply to three types of schools: Target, Reach and Safety schools. It is up to you how many applications you send, but a good mix would be more target than reach, and at least one safety. You will need to take your list, and now decide which are your top picks, which are attainable for you academically, which are affordable for you only with aid, and refine your broad list into a group of schools that gives you the best chance for success. Talk to an admissions counselor at your high school if you have questions about this.
Step 3: Completing and Sending Applications to Colleges
Once your list is complete you are ready to apply to college by completing and sending in applications! College applications take time to complete —you have to write essays, ask for recommendations and get test scores sent to schools—so stay organized! All colleges will require these types of application materials, so start thinking about these items well before October or December. Once you complete and send them, then you have successfully applied to college.
小题1:It can be learned from the first paragraph that_____________.
A.you should be cautious to pick up the right college
B.you don't have to think twice before applying to college
C.once you apply to a college, you'll be admitted to it easily
D.each applicant should choose the best college for their ideal
小题2:To make a list of colleges, you____________.
A.should consider more Safety schools
B.had better take your academy into account
C.are supposed to choose merely one most fit
D.are required to pick out more than 30 colleges
小题3:Which of the following statements is WRONG?
A.One should clarify the list according to one's abilities.
B.Refer to admissions counselor at high school if necessary.
C.One doesn't have to send his test scores to the intended college.
D.Teachers' recommendations are included in application materials.
小题4:We can conclude from the text that____________.
A.each applicant has the right to apply to any colleges for free
B.the more college one chooses, the more successful he will be
C.applicants should send required materials before the deadline
D.safety schools are those that don't have so many requirements
小题5:The text is mainly about____________.
A.how to succeed in life
B.how to apply to college
C.how to ask for information
D.how to do a research in college

Laws to stop tigers, camels, zebras and snakes being used as performing animals in circuses have been announced by the government.
The environment minister, Jim Paice, hoped the laws would be brought in before the end of the parliament in 2015, which is the main law-making institution of the UK. At present between 35 and 50 wild animals are thought to be used by circuses in England and Defra offered to help find new homes for the retired performers.
The announcement follows a campaign by animal charity organization for the ban (禁令), which became worse when a video appeared last year of a circus elephant being beaten by a worker. Campaigners were angry when Paice previously announced tougher licensing instead.
Circus Mondao, whose website shows zebra and camels, said it would probably challenge the suggested ban. The circus is a member of the European Circus Association, which previously challenged Austria's ban, saying there was no scientific evidence (证据) that the animals were harmed by the travelling or conditions. On its website, Mondao says that when it travels animals are the last to be loaded and the first to be unloaded; they are moved to tents within an hour of arriving, and are usually moved 20-50 miles.
Animal charities welcomed the move, but called for ministers to speed up the laws. Asked why circuses would be banned from keeping wild animals but not domestic animals such as horses, a Defra spokesman said a key difference was that domesticated animals were more used to conditions such as travelling. "Wild animals aren't domesticated: we feel it's not right ethically (伦理上) for wild animals to perform," he said.
小题1:What is the proper order of the following events ?
a. Tougher licensing was announced by the environment minister.
b. A campaign for a ban was launched by an animal charity.
c. Laws were announced by the government.
d. The suggested ban was challenged by Circus Mondao.
A.b, d, c, aB.c, b, a, dC.b, a, c, dD.c, a, d, b
小题2:According to the text, which of the following is TRUE?
A.Retired performers are taken good care of in their new homes.
B.The environment minister expected to introduce the law during the present parliament.
C.Austria’s ban has been seriously challenged by all the European circuses.
D.Animal charities were not satisfied with the suggested laws at all.
小题3:“Domestic animals ” are probably      .
A.animals that provide meat for people
B.animals that are introduced from other countries
C.animals that are well trained by a circus
D.animals that live on farm or in people’s home

One potential problem with allowances is that children’s responsible behavior can become about earning the allowance rather than the intrinsic(固有的)value of their family responsibilities. For example, if you pay your children for taking out the rubbish, they see this chore (家务事) as a job that they should be rewarded for instead of a responsibility they must fulfill as part of the family. But giving children an allowance for weekly chores is not necessarily bad. You are rewarding them for fulfilling their family responsibilities, but it is not for a specific act. It is an appreciation of their commitment to your family values. You are also conveying another important message that their actions have consequences: if they do good things, good things happen. They also learn a lesson about the market economy, namely that work is rewarded.
Allowances can also be used as punishment and to teach children lessons about family values. For example, if your children join a group of kids smashing (砸碎) pumpkins on Halloween, a part of a reasonable punishment might be to require them to pay the families out of their allowance to replace the pumpkins. Thus, your children learn that bad behavior has financial consequences. Meanwhile, by relating the punishment to the misdeed, you ensure that your children see the connection and learn the value lesson.
How much allowance should you pay your children? The precise amount depends on your family’s financial situation, the cost of living and your children’s needs. Children can start to earn a weekly allowance as early as 5 years of age. An increase of $ 1 per week for each year of your children’s lives is realistic until they reach their mid-teens. When they begin to drive and date, you can calculate their expenses and establish a reasonable allowance that covers their needs.
小题1:The first paragraph mainly tells us that giving allowance to children may____________.
A.lead to children’s preference for money rather than anything else
B.lead to children’s preference for earning money on their own
C.cause the problem that children value money more than responsibilities
D.cause children to earn money instead of going to school
小题2:When your children join a group of kids smashing pumpkins on Halloween, ___________.
A.you should give them some allowances to pay for the pumpkins
B.they should be rid of their opportunity to celebrate Halloween
C.you should ensure your children see the connection with their lessons
D.they should face the consequence of losing their own money
小题3:It can be inferred from the passage that_____________.
A.the author doesn’t want to give any tips on the allowance amount
B.allowances given to children of different ages may vary
C.children under 6 can’t be given any allowance
D.the allowance amount grows depending on the amount other children receive

Idioms are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word you see or hear, you may not understand the idiom because you don't understand the culture behind it.
   For example, if an American boy asks his mother what's for dinner tomorrow, she may say "I'll play it by ear", that means she doesn't have plans for dinner and she will decide later. "Play by ear" used to mean playing music using the sheet music, but now people often use it when they're not talking about music.
   There're many idioms in English. If you learn to use them, your English will be more vivid and colorful. English idioms are more common in spoken English. They can be difficult to remember sometimes. Next time when you hear somebody saying to you, "Give me a hand", you don't necessarily stretch out your hand to him/her, but you do need to be helpful. And when the situation is out of hand, you usually can do very little to manage all that. What about a green hand? It's not about the color of your hand! You're a green hand when you are very new at your work and don't have much experience. If you and your partner always work together hand in glove, you two definitely work together very well.
   Can you guess the meanings of some common English idioms to do with parts of your body?
小题1:An idiom is _______.
A.a phrase or a sentence that means exactly what the words say
B.a phrase or a sentence that doesn't mean exactly what every word says
C.so difficult that nobody can understand
D.something to do with parts of your body
小题2:If a mother says "I'll play it by ear" to talk about the dinner, she means _______.
A.she will cook dinner while listening to music at the same time
B.she doesn't hear what others are talking about.
C.she will play music using the sheet music instead of cooking dinner
D.She doesn't have plans for dinner and will decide later
小题3:When one says "Can you give me a hand?", he means _______.
A.he needs to hold your hand.
B.he works well with you
C.he needs your help
D.he is a new comer and can't help with the situation
小题4:Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.People use English idioms more in spoken English than in written English.
B.To understand the culture behind an idiom is important in understanding the idiom.
C.Idioms make your English more vivid and colorful so they are easy to remember.
D.You may not understand an idiom even though you know the meaning of each word.
小题5:Here are 4 common English idioms to do with parts of your body and their meanings. Can you match them?
  1) to learn something by heart a. to depend on oneself
  2) to have sticky fingers b. to know something very well
  3) to stand on one's own feet c. to do something secretly
  4) to go behind someone's back d. to have the habit of stealing
A.badc B.bdac C.cbad D.cdba
