Eat like a king in the morning, a prince at noon, and a peasant at night. This saying is all about the importance of breakfast. And now scientists can tell us just why it’s so important. According to a study carried out at Imperial College London, UK, skipping the first meal of the day not only means you eat more at lunch, but also that your brain wants to find more unhealthy foods.

The study suggests that there is a special part of our brain called the orbitofrontal cortex (眶额皮层), which plays an important part in making choices about what we eat. It is used for identifying the taste of food, especially when skipping breakfast. It is more likely to target high-calorie foods when you’re on an empty stomach.

Scientists did an experiment on this. Dr Tony Goldstone from Imperial College London, scanned (扫描) the brains of 21 men and women, around the age of 25. On the first day, these people skipped breakfast before the scans. On the second day, they had cereal (谷物), bread and jam as breakfast. After the scan on both days, they had their lunch.

When the volunteers had skipped breakfast, they ate around 20 percent more at lunch, compared with days when they had eaten breakfast. Their brain scans also showed the orbitofrontal cortex was especially responsive to high-calorie foods. “We believe that bit identifies the value of foods – how pleasant, how delicious something is,” Goldstone told The Guardian.

1.From Paragraph 1, we learn that _____.

A. scientists found out why eating breakfast is important

B. it’s easy to lose weight without breakfast

C. there’s no need to have good food for supper

D. eating breakfast makes your brain smarter

3.Which of the following is NOT true about the orbitofrontal cortex?

A. It is part of our brain.

B. It tells people to eat breakfast.

C. It decides which food we like.

D. It is active toward high-calorie foods.

4.Which of the following can be the title for this passage?

I was fairly new to this particular school since my parents only moved to the area. There was a boy, who, as it turned out, was an orphan and was living and working for a small farming family. He didn’t appear at first glance to ever be fully engaged(专注) in the school learning process；he would sit quietly, never seem to get any attention from the teacher, and would spend a lot of time staring out of the window just behind him.

Over the next few weeks, I got to know this boy while playing outside in the schoolyard playing baseball, or soccer. He was very athletic and very good at anything we played. I started to wonder why he didn’t seem to do well in school and why the teacher ignored him.

He told me he had been in several foster (收养) homes since he was a little boy and that most of his time in the last few years had always been on farms. He said he was made to work before he went to school and as soon as he got home until it was time for bed. He was never given a chance to go out and play, nor was he allowed to have any friends although he told me he really didn’t have any friends anyway, because he was an orphan and they did not want anything to do with him.

I had never before been acquainted with prejudice of any kind. Here was one characteristic of a human being who through no fault of his own carried a label that prevented him from even having friends as a child. His potential was also being ignored by the teacher. It wasn’t that he couldn’t learn, or didn’t want to — it was because he wasn’t encouraged or in some cases, allowed to.

We may all meet people through the years that we tend to apply labels (标签) to without really taking the time to get to know them, to discover their real potential because our vision is clouded by how we always put people into pigeon holes that we are used to or comfortable with.

1. What was the first impression that the boy gave the author?

A. He was a troublemaker in class.

B. He was not drawn into learning.

C. He often played outside in the schoolyard.

D. He tried to get his teacher’s attention.

2.The main idea of the third paragraph is .

A. how the boy became homeless

B. that the boy’s family was very poor

C. why the boy didn’t have any friends

D. who made the boy work day and night

3.The boy’s potential was ignored because .

A. He worked hard. B. He liked playing baseball..

C. He was athletic. D. He was an orphan.

4.What does “pigeon holes” in the last paragraph refer to?

A. specific categories B. a group of friends

C. special schools D. animals’ homes

This year, Face book, the social media website announced that it would cooperate with several news organizations — including The New York Times, The Guardian, and the BBC — to place news stories directly into users’ personal Face book webpage. Stories published using Face book Instant will load more quickly and keep the style of the original publisher, who will keep all the advertising income the stories earn — at least for now. The deal shows how important social media has become to news organizations, and is a clear sign of how the world of news is changing — and has been for a while.

Many thought of it as the death of the newspaper, when Google News began in 2002. It had no human editor. Instead Google used, and still uses, a secret computer program that selects and displays news stories according to the reader’s personal interests, More recently, Associated Press and Yahoo have been publishing computer-written articles. Both use special software to automatically produce stories about company financial results and sports reports — areas where the quality of writing is felt to be of secondary importance to the accuracy of the data.

I think we should be concerned about such developments. One concern is that Facebook, Google and other social media websites see journalism as a sideline （副业）, a way of putting people in front of advertisements. It isn’t their primary function — so if it stops making them lots of money, they’re likely to stop doing it.

There’s another concern that computer-written articles are not actually journalism at all, because what a human news team produces is actually quite complex. A well-written news story puts information in context, offers a voice to each side of an argument and brings the public new knowledge.

Although economics and speed of delivery mean readers will probably choose a computer-written story over a carefully shaped article — at least for daily news — I don’t think the computers will be writing any in-depth articles for a while yet.

1.What is the main purpose of the article?

A. To report on a new computer service offered by Facebook.

B. To advise readers against reading computer-written news.

C. To express concern about recent trends in online news.

D. To describe the process of online news reporting.

2.Computer-written news reports have so far focused on sports and finance because ________.

A. these are the most popular topics for online readers

B. writing style is less important than accuracy in these areas

C. information on these topics is more easily available

D. there are fewer journalists specializing in these areas

3.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A. Business. B. Advertising.

C. Facebook. D. Journalism.

4.In Paragraph 4, which of the following is mentioned as a characteristic of a well-written news article?

A. The information presented is up-to-date.

B. The author’s opinion is clear.

C. The language used is vivid.

D. Different views on the topic are presented.

The kids in a village in Ethiopia wear dirty, ragged clothes. They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud. They have no school. Yet they all can chant the English alphabet, and some can make words.

The key to their success: 20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S. group called One Laptop Per Child.

The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where there are no schools or teachers. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they’re already amazed. “What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,” said Matt Keller, who runs the Ethiopia program.

The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse. The device’s camera was disabled to save memory, yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work. He called himself a lion, a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.

With his tablet, Kelbasa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows. Then he spelled words on his own. “Seven months ago he didn’t know any English. That’s unbelievable,” said Keller.

The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,” where they can read to learn. It won’t be in Amharic, Ethiopia’s first language, but in English, which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.

1.How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?

A. It trains teachers for them.

B. It helps their self-study.

C. It raises their living standards.

D. It provides funds for building schools.

2.What can we infer from Keller's words in Paragraph 3?

A. They need more time to analyze data.

B. More children are needed for the research.

C. He is confident about the future of the project.

D. The research should be carried out in kindergartens.

3.What is the aim of the project?

A. To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.

B. To make Amharic widely used in the world.

C. To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.

D. To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.

One of the Queen’s closest relatives and oldest friends was allowed to give a deep description into the family life of the Royals. Although there have been hundreds of other books declaring to offer a quick look behind the Palace doors, this is the first written by someone who is closely related to the Royal Family and has shared their lives—not only throughout the Queen’s reign (统治) but also through that of her father, King George VI.

The Final Curtsey was written by her Majesty’s cousin and childhood playmate the Honorable Margaret Rhodes. It tells in details the story of Mrs. Rhodes’s relationship with the Royal family over eight decades. The book, with delightfully informal and never-before-seen pictures, has been written with the full knowledge of the Queen, who has read and approved parts of it.

Born in 1925, the Honorable Margaret Rhodes has led an extraordinary life. She was the childhood playmate of her cousin, the Queen; a wartime M16 spy; and she was a lady-in- waiting (宫女) to her aunt, the Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, from 1991 until the latter’s death in 2002. At the Queen’s 80th birthday in April 2006, Margaret gave an interview to the BBC which she proved that, in her own opinion and despite several false reports, the Queen would not abdicate(退位).

In this charming autobiography (自传)，she told how she was offered a house to live in the Royal farm in Windsor Great Park unexpectedly. One day when she and the Queen were out riding outside, she suddenly returned and said, “Could you bear to live in the suburb?” “I think it should be OK.” Therefore Mrs. Rhodes is now still living there.

1.Compared with other books about the Royal Family, the biggest advantage of The Final Curtsey is that _______.

A. its author is very famous

B. its author knows the Queen well

C. it presents reader a very different Queen

D. it has pictures that have never been seen

2.When Mrs. Rhodes was offered to live in the Royal farm, she was _______.

A. unhappy B. surprised

C. sad D. disappointed

3.We can learn from Paragraph 3 that Mrs. Rhodes ________.

A. has lived quite a long life

B. was so famous that BBC interviewed her

C. has a close relationship with the royal family

D. has been very busy and kept on changing jobs

4.The passage is mainly about________.

A. a book about royal family

B. the Queen’s life

C. the life of Margaret Rhodes

D. the Queen’s abdication

On my first day of high school, I asked an eleventh-grader where my class was. And he told me it was “on the fourth floor, next to the pool.” I found out five minutes later that we don’t even have a fourth floor and there’s no pool either! Besides that, I didn’t have any trouble with the older kid.

I think the biggest difference between middle and high school is the homework load (工作量) and size of the school. I went from maybe fifteen minutes of homework a night to several hours, so I had to learn how to make full use of time! Our class size is around 550, but joining in clubs, sports, music, and other activities at school makes it easier to get to know people in every grade.

The best advice I can give about the years you spend in high school is to learn things for yourself, not just to get a good grade. There have been so many tests that I’ve prepared for the night before, gotten an A, and not remembered anything later. I’ve changed that this year, and I enjoy school so much more. Don’t take easy classes just to have a simple year. If you have a choice between chemistry and sports, the first will prove to be a lot more useful!

While drinking and smoking might be present in some middle schools, they’re also around in high school. I have a lot of friends who promised they’d never drink or smoke, but are now partying every weekend. If you have “fun”and spend your nights wasted instead of studying, you will regret it when you’re applying for (申请) college. The “friends” who say you’re a loser for not partying are really not your friends at all. It’s hard to see your closest friends grow apart and go in different directions, but don’t follow their footsteps. Create your own path in life and make your own decisions.

1. What happened to the author on his first day of high school?

A. He had a fight with an eleventh-grader.

B. He fell into a pool on the fourth floor.

C. He was five minutes late for class.

D. He was fooled by a schoolboy.

2.The author advises high school students to _____.

A. choose useful classes

B.give up sports

C. try their best to get good grades

D. get ready for tests the night before

3. The last paragraph mainly tells us _____.

A. not to lose ourselves in high school

B. about the importance of making friends

C. not to go to any party in high school

D.about the trouble caused by drinking and smoking

D. Different views on the topic are presented.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Everyone gathered around and Paddy read out loud, slowly, his tone growing sadder and sadder. The little headline said: BOXER RECEIVES LIFE SENTENCE.

Frank Cleary, aged 26, professional boxer, was today found guilty of the murder of Albert Cumming, aged 32, laborer, last July. The jury (陪审团) reached its decision after only ten minutes, recommending the most severe punishment the court could give out. It was, said the judge, a simple case. Cumming and Cleary had quarreled violently at the Harbour Hotel on July 23rd and the police saw Cleary kicking at the head of the unconscious Cumming. When arrested Cleary was drunk but clear-thinking…

Cleary was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour. Asked if he had anything to say, Cleary answered, “Just don’t tell my mother.”

“It happened over three years ago,” Paddy said helplessly. No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do. “Just don’t tell my mother,” said Fee numbly. “And no one did! Oh, God! My poor, poor Frank!”

Paddy wiped the tears from his face and said. “Fee dear, pack your things. We’ll go to see him.”

She half-rose before sinking back, her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead. “I can’t go,” she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there. “It would kill him to see me. I know him so well— his pride, his ambition. Let him bear the shame alone, it’s what he wants. We’ve got to help him keep his secret. What good will it do him to see us? ”

Paddy was still weeping, but not for Frank, for the life which had gone from Fee’s face, for the dying in her eyes. Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune, always stood between Fee and himself. He was the cause of her withdrawal from his heart and the hearts of his children.

Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away. But Paddy’s love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank.

So he said, “Well, Fee, we won’t go. But we must make sure he is taken care of. How about if I write to Father Jones and ask him to look out for Frank?”

The eyes didn’t liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks. “Yes, Paddy, do that. Only make sure he knows not to tell Frank we found out. Perhaps it would ease Frank to think for certain that we don’t know.”

1.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Frank was found guilty of murder because he was a professional boxer.

B. The family didn’t find out what happened to Frank until three years later.

C. The jury and the judge disagreed on whether Frank had committed murder.

D. Frank didn’t want his family to find out what happened because Paddy disliked him.

2.Paddy didn’t cry for Frank because he thought ________.

A. Frank did kill someone and deserved the punishment

B. Frank should have told Fee what had happened

C. what had happened to Frank was killing Fee

D. Frank had always been a man of bad moral character

3.Which of the following suggests that Fee was deeply shocked by what happened to Frank?

A. “Her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead.”

B. “Let him bear the shame alone, it’s what he wants.”

C. “Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away.”

D. “The eyes didn’t liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks.”

4.“She half-rose before sinking back …” (in Paragraph 6) shows that ________.

A. Fee was so heart-broken that she could hardly stand up

B. Fee didn’t want to upset Paddy by visiting Frank

C. Fee couldn’t leave her family to go to see Frank

D. Fee struggled between wanting to see Frank and respecting his wish
