3．We've reached a strange-some would say unusual-point．While fighting world hunger continues to be the matter of vital importance according to a recent report from the World Health Organization （WHO），more people now die from being overweight，or say，from being extremely fat，than from being underweight．It's the good life that's more likely to kill us these days．
Worse，nearly l8million children under the age of five around the world are estimated to be overweight．What's going on？
We really don't have many excuses for our weight problems．The dangers of the problem have been drilled into us by public-health campaigns since 2001 and the message is getting through-up to a point．
In the 1970s，Finland，for example，had the highest rate of heart disease in the world and being overweight was its main cause．Not any more．A public-health campaign has greatly reduced the number of heart disease deaths by 80per cent over the past three decades．
Maybe that explains why the percentage of people in Finland taking diet pills doubled between 2001and 2005，and doctors even offer surgery of removing fat inside and change the shape of the body．That has become a sort of fashion．No wonder it ranks as the world's most body-conscious country．
We know what we should be doing to lose weight-but actually doing it is another matter．By far the most popular excuse is not taking enough exercise．More than half of us admit we lack willpower．
Others blame good food．They say：it's just too inviting and it makes them overeat．Still others lay the blame on the Americans，complaining that pounds have piled on thanks to eating too much American-style fast food．
Some also blame their parents-their genes．But unfortunately，the parents are wronged because they're normal in shape，or rather slim．
It's a similar story around the world，although people are relatively unlikely to have tried to lose weight．Parents are eager to see their kids shape up．Do as I say-not as I do．

28．What is the"strange"point mentioned in the first sentence？A
A．The good life is a greater risk than the bad life．
B．Starvation is taking more people's lives in the world．
C．WHO report shows people's unawareness of food safety．
D．Overweight issue remains unresolved despite WHO's efforts．
29．Why does the author think that people have no excuse for being overweight？C
A．A lot of effective diet pills are available．
B．Body image has nothing to do with good food．
C．They have been made fully aware of its dangers．
D．There are too many overweight people in the world．
30．The example of Finland is used to illustrateC．
A．the cause of heart disease
B．the fashion of body shaping
C．the effectiveness of a campaign
D．the history of a body-conscious country
31．Which would be the best title for the passage？A
A．Actions or Excuses？
B．Overweight or Underweight？
C．WHO in a Dilemma
D．No Longer Dying of Hunger．

14．Motorists who used to listen to the radio or their favorite tunes on CDs may have a new way to entertain themselves，after engineers in Japan developed a musical road surface．
A team from the Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has built a number of"melody roads"，which use cars as tuning forks to play music as they travel．
The concept works by using grooves（凹槽）．They are cut at very specific intervals in the road surface．The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes．
Depending on how far apart the grooves are，a car moving over them will produce a series of high or low notes，and designers are able to create a distinct tune．
Paten documents for the design describe it as notches"formed in a road surface so as to play a melody without producing simple sound or rhythm and reproduce melody-like tones．"
There are three musical strips in central and northern Japan-one of which plays the tune of a Japanese pop song．Reports say the system was invented by Shizuo Shinoda．He scraped some markings into a road with a bulldozer before driving over them and found that they helped to produce all kinds of tones．
The optimal speed for melody road is 44kph，but people say it is not always easy to get the intended sound．
"You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well，"wrote one Japanese blogger．"Driving too fast will sound like playing fast forward，while driving around 12mph[20km/h]has a slow-motion effect，making you almost car-sick．"

28．We can learn from the passage that the highness of notes is depended on．A
A．how far the grooves are
B．how big the grooves are
C．the number of the grooves
D．the speed of the car
29．The underlined word"optimal"in the passage might meanC

30．In order to hear the music well，you have toD
A．drive very fast
B．drive slowly
C．open the windows wide
D．keep the windows closed
31．What's the best title of the passage？B
A．A New Type of Music
B．Melody Roads in Japan
C．A Musical Road Surface
D．A New Invention in Japan．
