题目内容

5．Young people can accomplish what they want through such simple acts as keeping themselves ________ and approaching everything with total commitment．（　　）

A．

focusing

B．

focused

C．

having focused

D．

to focus

分析年轻人可以通过一些简单的行动来完成他们想要做的事，像注意力集中，做每件事都专心致志．

解答答案：B
短语搭配，keep oneself focused全神贯注，专心致志；focus与oneself之间构成动宾关系，要用被动，原本的结构是focus oneself on sth专注于某事．故选B．

点评过去分词是非谓语动词的一种，用法很灵活，分为简单式done（表示与谓语同时或几乎同时发生的动作）；完成式having been done（表示先于谓语的动作）．学习时，要把握其用法特征：表示被动和完成．同时还要注意区分现在分词和不定式．

13．

Though she is already one of the most famous pop stars of the 21st century，you've probably never heard of a 25-year-old singer-songwriter called Stefani Germanotta-but that's only because almost everyone knows her by her stage name．Lady Gaga．
Bom in New York City in 1986，Lady Gaga enjoyed music，singing and
dancing from an early age：she started playing the piano when only four years
old and loved performing in musicals at high school．At 17she went to a special
school for the arts but later left because she wanted to become a professional
singer as soon as possible．
She became a global star with her first album The Fame in 2008and followed it in 2009with The Fame Monster．Earlier this year she released a single，"Bom this Way"，which broke the record for quickest sales for a piece of music on iTunes，with one million downloads in only five days．Her third album，also called Born this Way，went on sale in May，2011．
Because of how much money she earns，how much she is written and talked about in the media，and how many internet searches are made with her name，Forbes magazine recently put her at number one in its list of the"world's most powerful celebrities"．
Most music critics say that what makes Lady Gaga's music outstanding are her strong voice and also the strong electronic rhythm of most of her songs，which makes them popular in nightclubs．They also say her music often sounds a bit like the work of other artists，and she herself is quite open about the fact that goroups such as Queenand female singers such as Madonna have been a big influence on her．
More original than her music，perhaps，is the way she looks A big part of her image is her   outlandish clothes，with her strangest piece of clothing probably having been a dress mande partly out of maet，which she wore once in 2010．
Part of what has made Lady Gaga so famous so quickly is the way she has used social media．She has over 30million Facebook friends，for example，and almost 10milion followers on Twitter．

17．What is the single largest cause of sick leave in the UK？The answer is not the common cold or flu，but back pain．Back pain affects one in three British adults，costs the country over 5billion pounds every year and is very difficult to treat．But now Britain's National Health Service（NHS）will be offering a new solution：acupuncture．The ancient Chinese needle therapy（疗法）has been around in the UK for many years，but this is the first time it has been officially approved by the NHS's advisory body，the National Institute for Clinical Excellence（NICE）．
Traditionally，doctors in the UK have advised back pain sufferers to stay active，do stretching exercises and take painkillers when necessary and in more serious cases some people are given X-ray treatment or injections with therapeutic substances．
NICE，however，say there is evidence that acupuncture may be more effective than expensive X-rays or injections，so patients who have been suffering for over six weeks should be given a choice．As an alternative to acupuncture，patients will be able to choose for either a course of spinal manipulation（脊柱推拿术），or a series of special exercise sessions．In the UK，acupuncture is classed as a complementary therapy，which is the term given to a medical procedure which hasn't received the strict trials by which scientists prove some treatments work．
While many experts have welcomed the move to make acupuncture available on the NHS，some are still doubtful about its effectiveness．Research from the US earlier this month found that using toothpicks could be as good as using real needles．So while some are yet to be convinced，back pain sufferers will be hoping that acupuncture helps get them feeling healthy and mobile again．Employers，on the other hand，will be hoping it gets them back to work．

32．What can we learn from the first paragraph？B
A．The British have come to know acupuncture recently．
B．About thirty percent of the British suffer from back pain．
C．NICE has been arguing against Chinese needle therapy．
D．The British ask for sick leave mostly because of cold or flu．
33．The traditional ways to treat back pain in the UK includeC．
A．staying in bed for rest
B．Chinese needle therapy
C．receiving X-ray treatment
D．avoiding physical exercises
34．In treating back pain，acupunctureA．
A．may cost less than X-rays
B．works surely better than injections
C．has gone through strict scientific tests
D．will replace the traditional ways in the UK
35．What do experts think of acupuncture？D
A．They think highly of it．
B．Most of them are against it．
C．Few recognize its usefulness．
D．They differ on its effectiveness．

3．Hurricane Sandy was a hurricane that destroyed parts of the Caribbean and the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern United States during late October 2012，with minor impacts in the Southeastern and Midwestern states and Eastern Canada．Sandy，classified as the eighteenth named storm and tenth hurricane of the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season，was a Category 2 storm at its peak intensity．While it was a Category 1 storm off the coast of the Northeastern United States，the storm became the largest Atlantic hurricane on record．Previous estimates of losses due to damage and business interruption are estimated at 65.6 billion，which would make it the second-costliest Atlantic hurricane，behind only Hurricane Katrina．At least 253 people were killed along the path of the storm in eight countries．

In the United States，Hurricane Sandy affected 24 states，including the entire eastern seaboard from Florida to Maine and west across the Appalachian Mountainsto Michiganand Wisconsin，with particularly severe damage in New Jersey and New York．Its storm hit New York City on October 29，flooding streets，tunnels and subway lines and cutting power in and around the city．Damage in the US is estimated at over 63 billion．
