A.are tellingB.is tellingC.are givenD.were given

分析 一位兼任班主任的英语老师正在告诉我们一些关于志愿工作者的事情.

解答 答案B.
本句话的主语是"A teacher of English and class teacher",其表示的是一个人,这个人既是英语老师,也是班主任老师.故谓语动词使用单数形式.可排除A和D.C项使用的是被动语态,而teacher和give之间是主动关系,所以C不正确.故答案选B.

点评 并列结构作主语谓语用复数:
如:Reading and writing are very important.
注意:当主语由and连结时,如果它表示一个单一的概念,即指同一人或同一物时,谓语动词用单数,and此时连接的两个词前只有一个冠词. 
如:The iron and steel industry is very important to our life.

7.Bongos was a happy,artistic girl. She had one big ambition to play the drums in a band.But one big obstacle lay in her way.To be good enough to play in a band,Brenda had to practice a lot,but she lived next-door to a lot of old people.Many of them are sick.She knew that the sound of beating drums would really get on their nerves.So,she had tried playing in the strangest places:a basement,a kitchen,and even in a shower. But there was always someone it would annoy.
One day,while watching a science documentary on TV,she heard that sound cannot travel in space,because there's no air.At that moment,Brenda Bongos decided to become a sort of musical astronaut.
With the help of a lot of time,books and work,Brenda built a space bubble.This was a big glass ball connected to a machine which sucked out all the air inside. All that would be left inside was a drum kit(成套设备) and a chair. Brenda got into the space suit she had made,entered the bubble,turned on the machine,and played those drums like a wild child.
It wasn't long before Brenda Bongos came very famous.Many people came to see her play in her space bubble.Shortly afterwards she came out of the bubble and stated giving concerts.Her fame spread so much that the government suggested that she be part of a unique space journey.Finally,Brenda was a real musical astronaut,and had gone far beyond her first ambition of playing drums in a band.
Years later,when asked how she had achieved all this,she thought for a moment,and said:"If those old people next-door hadn't mattered so much to me,I wouldn't have found a solution,and none of this would have ever happened."

56.Why did Brenda try to play in the strangest places?B
A.Because she didn't want others to hear her play.
B.Because she didn't mean to disturb others.
C.Because she didn't have her own room.
D.Because she didn't like her neighbors.

B.when she became part of the unique space journey
C.after she became a real musical astronaut
D.when people came to see her in the space bubble

11.Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins,minerals,and high-quality protein,eggs also contain a high level of blood cholesterol(胆固醇),one of the major causes of heart disease.One egg yolk,in fact,contains a little more than two-thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit.
    This knowledge has caused egg sales to drop in recent years,which in turn has brought about the development of several alternatives to eating regular eggs.One alternative is to eat substitute eggs.These egg substitutes are not real eggs,but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked.They have the advantage of having lower cholesterol rates,and they can be scrambled or used in baking.One disadvantage,however,is that they are not good for frying,poaching,or boiling.A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of eggs,sometimes called"designer''eggs.These eggs are  produced by hens that are fed low-fat diets consisting of ingredients such as canola oil,flax,and rice bran.In spite of their diets,however,these hens produce eggs that contain  the same amount of cholesterol as regular eggs.Yet,producers of these eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans.
    Egg producers claim that their product has been described unfairly.They use scientific studies to back up their claim.And  in tact  studies on the relationship between eggs and human cholesterol levels have brought mixed results.It may be that it is not the type of egg that is the main determinant of cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs.Some people may be more sensitive to cholesterol from food than other people.In fact,there is evidence that certain dietary fats stimulate the body's production of blood cholesterol.Consequently,while it still makes sense to limit one's intake of eggs,even designer eggs,it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will probably not help reduce the blood cholesterol level.

A.High-quality protein

49.What's the main purpose of this passage?C
A.To advertise for substitute eggs.
B.To warn people of the danger of heart disease by eating eggs.
C.To inform people of the relationship between eggs and cholesterol.
D.To tell people that fat intake is more dangerous than egg intake.
50.Which of the following statements is NOT true?C
A.It has been proved that some dietary fats stimulate the body's production of blood cholesterol.
B.Some people are insensitive to cholesterol from food.
C.It is the type of egg that determines the level of cholesterol in one's body.
D.Controlling one's intake of eggs and dietary fat is likely to reduce blood cholesterol.
6.Today,we are told,children don't spend enough time in the fresh air.Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV-they seem to be living in a virtual world.They have lost touch with nature.
But now 400 organizations in the UK,from playgroups to the National Health Service,are encouraging children to have some"wild time".They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside.Activities such as building dens,climbing trees and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do.Even if they live in a city,they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.
Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad.They need to be shown what to do and where to go.Andy Simpson from National Health Service says,"We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids'development,independence and creativity,by giving wild time a go".
    So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now,it seems that going back to basics and experiencing"nature's playground"is what modern children need.David Bond from Project Wild Thing says,"We need to make more space for wild time in children's daily routine,freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted".
