6．A new computer treatment is being used to deal with obesity （肥胖） in children．
Connected to a small dining set，consisting of scales and a plate，a mini computer teaches children how to eat and reminds them when to stop．
"In very fat people，hunger signals from the stomach to the brain stop functioning．But the new computer system teaches the children how to receive these messages again，"says Dr．Julian Hamilton-Shield，the Bristol University senior lecturer leading the treatment trials．
The computer，called a Mandometer，records and stores the weight loss from the plate when children eat．As the food is leaving the plate，a curve （曲线） is produced on the computer screen suggesting whether the child is eating too quickly．
"Children with weight problems often eat too quickly．We want them to eat steadily and slowly and the system teaches them to slow down．It's a bit like retraining．"says Hamilton-Shield．
Obesity now represents one of the major threats to the future health of children．About one in five boys and one in four girls aged two to fifteen in England are overweight．But so far no treatments have proven effective in treating children．
The Mandometer was developed in Sweden，but at present is experiencing further development at the University of Bristol，with﹩224，400in funds from BUPA-a global health and care organization．The system could be on the market in two years time．At first，it would be managed by medical clinics．

60．The text is mainly written to explainA．
A．how a new computer treatment dealing with obesity works
B．why child obesity becomes a topic of people
C．how to lose weight with the help of computers
D．why a computer is effective in dealing with child obesity
61．The word"functioning"in paragraph 3probably meansB．
A．eating B．working C．lasting D．losing
62．Obesity threats the health of children，whichC．
A．people have not cared about
B．is nothing compared with other diseases
C．is very serious
D．has led to many deaths
63．What can we learn from the text？C
A．The Mandometer will be put into market once it proves effective．
B．The Mandometer is cheap enough for every family to afford．
C．The Mandometer is still not perfect．
D．Slow eating is sure to make people lose weight．

10．There was a time when a trip to the supermarket in the United States often ended with a seemingly simple question from the cashier："Paper or plastic？"Well，which type of bag would you choose？
While all types of bags have some influence on the environment，it has long been supposed that paper bags are kinder．They are made from a renewable source，break down easily，burn without giving off thick smoke and can be recycled．However，the producing process behind paper bags uses more energy than that of plastic ones．How can this be true？
Studies show that paper bag production requires four times as much energy as plastic bag production．And the amount of water used to make them is twenty times higher．Besides，the influence on forests is very serious．It takes about fourteen million trees to produce ten billion paper bags，which happens to be the number of bags used in the United States yearly．In terms of recycling，the idea that paper bags are more environment-friendly than plastic ones can be quickly   discarded．Research shows it requires about 98% less energy to recycle plastic than it does paper．
Even though paper bags might be more harmful than plastic ones，plastic still seems to be considered by governments as the more harmful of the two．In Ireland，for example，a tax has been introduced to discourage the use of plastic bags．People have to pay 22cents for every plastic bag，and as a result，their use has dropped quickly．
There's no doubt that it makes more sense to reuse these bags．However，we don't seem to be doing that at present．That may be because they fall apart quickly．If so，cloth bags are a better choice，but still，their production also has a bad influence on the environment．So what to do？How should we answer the question of"Paper or plastic？"It seems that we first need to ask ourselves one more general question："What can I do to help the environment？"

24．The questions in Paragraph 1are used toC．
A．express the author's doubts
B．tell readers how to save money
C．introduce points for discussion
D．show the kindness of the cashier
25．Compared with plastic bags，paper bagsA．
A．need more water to produce
B．require less energy to recycle
C．take more time to break down
D．have less influence on forests
26．The underlined word"discarded"in Paragraph 3probably means"B"．
A．shared           B．given up
C．discussed         D．put forward
27．Which question does the author probably hope the cashier will ask？D
A．Paper or cloth？
B．Paper or plastic？
C．A small bag or big one？
D．A new bag or your own one？

4．The unthinkable keeps happening．The 18th hot car death of the year was recorded Thursday---on the same day a national public service campaign started．It is meant to warn parents about the dangers of leaving kids in overheated cars．In the latest unfortunate accident，a 10-month-old girl died in Wichita，Kan，after being left by her parents in a car that was parked outside her house．The baby was forgotten，according to the police．
One New Mexico teenager's creation called"Hot Seat"might someday prevent such deaths．Alyssa Chavez，a 17-year-old from Albuquerque，said she designed a warning system that might stop people from accidentally leaving their young children in the car after they get out of it．
Chavez，whose mother owns a day-care center，said she had heard about the deaths of three children in hot cars in summer．"I felt that would be a good project for my eighth-grade science fair project---to find something to prevent those accidents from happening，"said Chavez．
She bought a door alarm （警报器） and began to design her new warning system．Finally，she won the science fair．And for the last three years，she's been improving the design and creating a busness plan．
The invention works in a simple but effective way．A parent places a sensor pad （感应垫） under the cover of a baby car seat．The pad has a sensor that communicates with a key fob （饰物） carried by the parent to find out how far the parent is from the car．If the parent is more than 40feet away from the car，the pad will check to see if it feels the child in the seat．If it doesn't，the alarms will not sound．If it does，then three alarms will go off---the key fob，the parent's phone and the car alarm itself．Chavez is now trying to raise money to build a model Hot Seat．
28．What can we say about the 10-month-old girl's parents？A
A．They were too careless．
B．They treated her unkindly．
C．They had poor driving skills．
D．They were against the campaign．

5．Drug Problems
If you're worried about your own or someone else's drug taking or misuse，it's good to know the facts．
Why take drugs？
Drug users don't start using drugs with the intention of becoming addicted．But many drugs contain addictive substances and even people who use them occasionally can become dependent and need to use them regularly．
Reasons why people start using drugs can include：to escape problems they may be having in other parts of their life，peer pressure and fitting in with another group of people，being curious about the effects of drugs．
If you start to use drugs on a regular basis，or if you become dependent on them，it can affect your family and friends as well as having a serious impact on your own physical and mental well-being．
Drug overdoses can be fatal．You can die instantly from misusing substances and drugs that you can buy over the counters．
Signs of drug abuse and misuse
There is not a common list of symptoms that you can use to tell if you or someone you know is misusing drugs．That's because drug use affects different people in different ways，depending on the type of drugs they're using．
Although anxiety，tiredness and a change in sleeping habits can be signs of drug use，they can also be caused by changes in your body，stress or other problems．
Drugs are categorized into three classes based on their overall level of harm．Class A drugs are the most dangerous，however，all the drugs in all three classes are harmful and addictive．
Remember that all drugs are illegal，even Class C drugs like cannabis（大麻烟）．If you're caught selling them to other people，or carrying a small amount in your pocket，it's likely that the police will get involved．
If you're found guilty of any of these offences，you may face a fine or time in custody（拘留），with Class A drugs carrying the most severe sentences．
Worried about a friend？
If you think that one of your friends or relatives is misusing drugs，you may want to approach them and talk about it．It's not your responsibility to make them stop，but you can tell them about how their behavior is affecting your relationship．
If they ask for help with their problem，then it's important to listen and help them find the right information and treatment．
National Drugs Helpline
If you're worried about drug abuse and addiction you can call the National Drugs Helpline on 0800 776 600for confidential advice---lines are open seven days a week．Calls are free and they won't show up on your phone bill，but you may be charged if you use a mobile．
