11."After World War II,many of the cities across western European countries         ,"our guide said.(  )
A.lied in ruinB.lay in ruinsC.lay in ruinD.lying in ruins

分析 我们的向导说:第二次世界大战后,西方欧洲国家的许多大城市都成为了废墟.

解答 答案:B.
lie in ruins成为废墟,这是固定短语,这里缺少的谓语动词,故排除D;lie的过去式是lay,根据时间状语可知,这里应该用过去式,lied意为撒谎.故选B.

点评 本本题难度适中.动词时态是高中阶段的重难点之一,也是高考常考的知识点,动词短语的考查在单选、完形及短文改错中经常出现,需要考生牢记它们的用法.

2.It has always been thought that alcohol causes people to put on weight because it contains a lot of sugar,but new research suggests a glass a day cold form part of a diet.Looking at past studies they found that,while heavy drinkers do put on weight; those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight.
A spokesman for the research team at Navarro University in Spain says,"Light to moderate alcohol intake,especially of wine,may be more likely to protect against,rather than promote,weight gain."The International Scientific Forum on Alcohol research reviewed the findings and agreed with most of the conclusions,particularly that data do not clearly indicate if moderate drinking increases weight.
Boston University's Dr.Harvey Finkel found that the biologic mechanisms(生物学机制)  relating alcohol to changes in body weight are not properly understood.His team pointed out  the strong protective effects of moderate drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes(糖尿病),which relate to increasing obesity.Some studies suggest that even very obese people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers.
The group says alcohol provides calories that are quickly absorbed into the body and are not stored in fat,and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods.They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks,taking into consideration drinking patterns and including the past tendency of participants to gain weight.
For now there is little evidence that consuming small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one's risk of becoming obese.What's more,a study three years ago suggested that resveratrol,a compound present in grapes and red wine destroys fat cells.

32.The passage is mainly for thoseB
A.who produce wine                        B.who have a drinking habit

A.Current data clearly show that moderate drinking increases weight.
B.Resveratrol is proved to increase the risk of becoming fat.

16.In many countries there are different special customs when a child's baby teeth fall out.Many of these customs tell stories about animals taking the teeth.
For example,Koreans have the custom of throwing the fallen tooth onto the roof of a house so that a magpie (喜鹊) can take the tooth away and bring a new tooth for the child.This custom is also followed by some other Asian countries,such as Japan and Vietnam.
Other countries,though,have tooth customs about other animals.In Mexico and Spain,for example,it is thought that a mouse takes a fallen tooth away and leaves some money.But in Mongolia,it is dogs that take children's teeth away.Dogs are highly respected in Mongolian culture.It is believed that the new tooth will grow strong if the baby tooth is fed to a dog,so parents in Mongolia will put their children's fallen teeth in a piece of meat and feed it to a dog.
In France and the USA,a child will put a fallen tooth under his or her pillow before going to bed.It is thought that in the early morning,when the child is still sleeping,the Tooth Fairy will take the tooth away and leave something else under the pillow.What she will leave is hard to know.It is said that in France the Tooth Fairy may leave some candies; however,in the United States,she may leave money.

13.Koreans throw a tooth onto the roof of a house in order toB.
A.get money       B.get a new tooth        C.get candies      D.feed magpies
14.From the last paragraph,we can know that in France and the USAD.

A famous professor was known for his interesting lessons,which attracted plenty of students to his class.This time,when the class began,he picked up a very large and __ jar and began to fill it with golf balls.He asked the students if the jar was full.They __ that it was.The professor picked up a box of small pebbles (截卵石) and __ them into the jar.He shook the jar __ to let the pebbles roll into the open __ between the golf balls.When asked if the jar was full,they __ with a firm “Yes”.

Then the professor poured a box of sand into the jar,which seemingly __ all the remaining space.The same question was asked and the same answer was given.The professor then __ two cans of beer from under the table and poured the __ contents into the jar,filling the empty space between the sand.

“Now,” said the professor,“I want you to recognize that this jar __ your life.The golf balls are the most __ things--your family,your children,your health and your friends.If everything else was lost and only they __ your life would still be full.The __ can be the other things that __ like your job,your house,your car.The sand is everything else--the small stuff.If you put the sand into the jar first,” he __.“there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for __.If you spend all your time and __ on the small stuff,you will never have __ for the things that are more important to you.Take care of the golf balls first,the things that really matter.The rest is just sand.”

One of the students put up her hand and __ what the beer represented.The professor smiled.“I’m glad you asked this.It just goes to show you that,no matter how __ your life may seem,there’s always room for a can of beer.”

19.The World Health Organization ( WHO) said that processed meat may lead to cancer.Do you still dare eat cancer-linked processed meat?Here are some comments on the website.
Bill (Australia) I'd rather live a short,pleasant life than a long,unhappy one,denying (拒绝给予)myself tasty food just because some experts say it's not healthy.We should all enjoy the one life we have-if I had listened to every piece of health advice I would never go anywhere,eat anything or enjoy life in any way.So,I won't change my habit.I am going to have a bacon sandwich,glass of wine,burger,can of coke whenever I feel like it.
Tim (America) Is meat really as bad as smoking?I don't think so.According to the WHO 34,000 people die worldwide per year because they eat processed meat.In 2012,8.2 million people died of cancer worldwide.That means if you eat a lot of processed meat you have a chance of being among the 0.41 percent of people dying of cancer because of processed meat.I'll take the chance.
Helen (Switzerland) The WHO doesn't say that just one bite of meat causes cancer,it is rather saying that people should vary their diet.People who eat more meat often have other unhealthy habits.They usually eat fewer fruits and vegetables and they also often exercise less.
Van ( China) Perhaps this report will make people consider becoming vegetarians (素食者).So for your health,the environment and future generations,it is not difficult;it just needs a change of attitude.There is a vast variety of other delicious food available to enjoy.

A.He'll become a vegetarian.
B.He'll live a pleasant life.

A.Very unhealthy.
B.Quite safe.
C.Full of risks.
D.Not worthwhile.
