17.Nowadays parents and their children are spending less and less time communicating with each other.(31)G.It is reported that American parents today spend about 40percent less time with their children than parents did a generation ago.To keep your family time creative and enjoyable,below is a list of helpful family time tips.
1.Eat together & listen to each other
Most children today don't know the meaning of a family dinnertime.Yet the communication and unity built during this time is necessary to a healthy family life.Sharing a meal together allows parents and their children the opportunity to talk about each other's lives.(32)F.
2.Read often
It's important for parents to read to their children.The latest research shows that reading to your children develops an interest in knowledge and contributes to language development.It also increases their concentration on things and helps them become more curious.(33)D.After reading,ask questions about what the books are about.
3.Start a hobby or project
Choose a fun activity that your children are interested in.Activities like cooking,fishing or biking can be their great hobbies.(34)B.Once a child learns a new skill,let him or her take the lead under your direction.
4.Plan a family outing
(35)C.Jump into the family car and go for a drive.Prepare a picnic lunch and visit a local park.Take time to play or ride a bike.A slow and relaxing walk in the woods will help parents communicate with their children better.Also,a visit to the zoo or museum will inspire enthusiasm in a child and lead to long discussions.

A.It is very important for children to exercise.
B.They can open the door to exciting family time.
C.Sometimes getting out of the house is important.
D.Look for books that your children would enjoy reading.
E.New technology has made video games more popular with children.
F.This is also a time for parents to listen and give advice to their children.
G.As a result,many children are getting less love than their parents once got.
15.Optimism May Help People Live Longer
People who have an optimistic view on life are more likely to live longer,a US study said Wednesday.
The study,published in the American Journal of Epidemiology,analyzed data from 2004to 2012from 70,000women enrolled in the Nurses'Health Study,a long-running US study tracking women's health via surveys every two years.
The researchers looked at participants'levels of optimism and other factors that might play a role in how optimism may affect mortality risk,such as race,high blood pressure,diet,and physical activity.
It found the most optimistic women,or the top 25%,had a nearly 30 percent lower risk of dying from any of the diseases analyzed in the study compared with the least optimistic women,or the bottom 25%.
The most optimistic women had a 16 percent lower risk of dying from cancer;38 percent lower risk of dying from heart disease;39 percent lower risk of dying from stroke;38 percent lower risk of dying from respiratory disease;and 52 percent lower risk of dying from infection.
Previous studies have linked optimism with reduced risk of early death from cardiovascular(心脑血管的)problems,but this was the first to find a link between optimism and reduced risk from other major causes.
"While most medical and public health efforts today focus on reducing risk factors for diseases,evidence has been mounting that enhancing psychological resilience (弹性,复原力) may also make a difference,"said Eric Kim,research fellow at the Harvard T.H.Chan School of Public Health and co-lead author of the study.
"Our new findings suggest that we should make efforts to boost optimism,which has been shown to be associated with healthier behaviors and healthier ways of coping with life challenges."
The study also found that healthy behaviors only partially explain the link between optimism and reduced mortality risk.One other possibility is that higher optimism directly affects our biological systems,Kim said.
Co-lead author and postdoctoral research fellow Kaitlin Hagan said optimism can be varied with relatively uncomplicated and low-cost interventions (干预),even things as simple as having people write down and think about the best possible outcomes for various areas of their lives,such as careers or friendships.
"Encouraging use of these interventions could be an innovative way to enhance health in the future,"Hagan said.

A.help women live longer than men
B.enable people to stay healthy
C.cure people of high blood pressure

C.had a 39% lower risk of suffering from cancer
D.were less likely to suffer from low emotions
65.The underlined word"mounting"in paragraph 7might be best placed byA.
A.increasing     B.appearing       C.doubling     D.showing
66.Both Kim and Hagan believed thatC.
A.simple but high-cost interventions should be tried out
B.higher optimism indirectly influences our body
C.optimism should be encouraged and developed
D.optimism can help people meet all kinds of challenges.
2.When I brush my teeth each morning,I see my tongue,and feel slightly amazed that it's going to be insured(投保) for£1 million.I had never really paid much attention to it until I became a baby-food tester.Now,my tongue---or rather,its ability to determine tiny changes in flavor---is the primary tool of my job.The company I work for believes I'm so valuable in terms of getting the balance of tastes in baby food just right that it's worth getting insured.
I'm what you call a"supertaster"---one of a small percentage of the population born with twice as many taste buds(味蕾) as the rest.Babies are typically born with more than 10,000taste buds,but in later life they decrease to as few as 5,000.At 24I should really be at the height of my tasting power.
At first,baby food tasted strange to me---it took a while to get used to eating a meal that had been reduced to a paste(糨糊).Also,I have to make a real effort to think like a baby---to imagine that each time I put a spoonful of pie in my mouth,I am six months old again.I still avoid tasting baby fish pie after breakfast.
I am more aware of the need to protect my tongue these days,particularly before a tasting session,and to avoid any strong tastes or smells,such as coffee and perfume.I also drink plenty of water during the day to clean my palate(味觉).
It's not really something that affects my personal life.Outside work it's a joy to be able to taste everything so deeply.One consequence is that eating is a much richer experience for me than for most people.If I take one bite of a salad,I can tell immediately what's in the dressing.I like the challenge of guessing what's in anything I eat,and the satisfaction of rarely getting it wrong.

24.The reason why the author is being insured is thatA.
A.few people have his tasting power
B.he manages valuable assets for his company
C.baby-food testers'taste buds are easily injured
D.he makes well-balanced meals for babies
25.The author is a good baby-food tester because heB.
A.is good at making baby food
B.has more taste buds
C.knows a lot about nutrition
D.is young
26.How does the author protect his tongue?D
①By avoiding strong tastes.
②By brushing his teeth every day.
③By staying away from strong smells.
④By drinking plenty of water.
A.①②③
B.②③④
C.①②④
D.①③④
27.What does the author mean by saying that"eating is a much richer experience for me than for most people"?C
A.He can learn a lot about food by tasting it.
B.He can easily tell which of two foods is better.
C.He is more sensitive to flavor than other people.
D.He spends much of his time eating every day.
18.If you see a group of people dancing and singing on the street or in the railway station,you don't need to feel surprised.They are a flash mob(暴民).Who are they?Are they mobs?Don't be confused by their name.Actually,a flash mob is a group of people who gather suddenly in a public place,do something unusual for a brief period of time,and then quickly disappear.
They are usually organized with the help of the Internet or other digital communications networks.The messages may be sent to friends,who send to more people.At a predetermined time,they gather and perform some activities such as exchanging books,coming together to look at the sky,waving their hands and yelling something at the top of their voice for 30 seconds.Then,they quickly disappear before the police can arrive.Using mobile phones,the flash mob can change its place if the first one has been cancelled for any reason.

Flash mob gatherings can sometimes shock people.Such an activity might seem amusing and magical,but it also might frighten people who are not aware of what is taking place.Undoubtedly,flash mob can serve as good political tools and have great potential,such as using flash mobs to advertise a product.
    The flash mob is now becoming more and more popular.People use it to do many things.For example,in 2009,Michael Jackson's fans took part in a flash mob to remember him.Hundreds of his fans gathered singing and dancing Michael's famous song"Beat It"together.Flash mobs give people from all walks of life an opportunity to come together to create a memory.
