8．CHICAGO （Reuters）-Smoking not only can wrinkle （起皱纹） the face and tarn it yellow-it can do the same to the whole body，researchers reported on Monday．
The study，published in the Archives of Dermatology，shows that smoking affects the skin all over the body-even skin protected from the sun．
"We examined non-facial skin that was protected from the sun，and found that the total number of packs of cigarettes smoked per day and the total years a person has smoked were linked with the amount of skin damage a person experienced，"Dr．Yolanda Helfrich of the University of Michigan，who led the study，said in a statement．
"In participants older than 65 years，smokers had significantly more fine wrinkling than nonsmokers．Similar findings were seen in participants aged 45 to 65 years，"Helfrich"s team added in their report．
The researchers tested 82 people，smokers and nonsmokers，taking pictures of the inner right arms． They ranged，in age from 22 to 91 and half were smokers．Independent judges decided how wrinkled each person's skin was．
When skin is exposed to sunlight，notably the face，it becomes coarse，wrinkled and discolored with a pale yellow tint，Helfrich's team wrote．
Several previous studies have found that cigarette smoking contributes to premature（过早的）skin aging as measured by facial wrinkles，the study said，but little has been done to measure the aging of skin not exposed to light．
The report did not discuss die mechanism involved but previous research has found that cigarette smoke，among other things，causes blood vessels （血管） beneath the skin to constrict （紧缩），reducing blood supply to the skin．
Smoking can also damage the connective tissue that supports both die skin and the internal organs，．
72．When your skin is exposed to sunlight long，it-becomes all of the following butA．
A．flexible             
B．coarse                                       
C．rough

73．How wrinkled a person's skin is doesn't relate toD．
A．the number of cigarettes a person smokes．    
B．the kind and characteristics of skin
C．how long a person smokes              
D．how long skin is under sunlight
74．From the passage smoking results in skin aging mainly becauseA．
A．it will lower blood supply to skin                            
B．it can make you feel tired
C．it can make skin come off                                
D．it can make blood run faster
75．The main purpose of the passage is toC．
A．inform people about the result of the study                 
B．advise people how to protect skin
C．warn people not to smoke again                          
D．introduce a new way of avoid skin aging．

13．假设你是红星中学高三学生李华，请根据以下四幅图的先后顺序，介绍你在伦敦冬令营期间与同学们自行前往博物馆的完整过程，并以"My Experience in London"为题，给校刊"英语园地"写一篇英文稿件．
注意：1．词数不少于60；
2．开头已给出，不计入总词数．

My Experience in LondonLast winter vacation，my classmates and I went to London to attend a winter camp．
3．Plastic bags are a popular container in much of the world，but they are also a major source of pollution which need hundreds of years to break down，and as they do，tiny pieces can poison soil，lakes，rivers and oceans．So，environment experts urge people to reuse and recycle plastic bags．
Maryland artist Allita Irby just does so．It all starts with the morning newspaper，and the plastic bag that the paper comes in．The mixed media artist recognized its rich possibilities three years ago．"As I was taking the newspaper out，I felt the texture （质地） of these bags．I just looked down and realized it takes three to make a braid （发辫）．I'll just put a few main materials in just to make it strong enough．"Since then，Irby has been using plastic bags to create abstract lines in her art works．
Before using plastic bags in her pieces，Irby used natural materials like feathers，leather and dried plants，all of which contain elements that represent her Native American ancestry and identity，like her piece called"Navaho Bundles"．"I was making a hair style，a Navaho hair style when the hair was heavy and it was looped back on itself．I took the piece and looped it back onto itself and secured it with a tie．
Ms．Irby's neighbors praise her ability to turn wastes into treasure．Some people，like Charlotte Hogan，asked the artist to teach them how to create art from used plastic bags．Aleta Meyer expressed surprise，"I've never given any more thought to what to do with a plastic bag．This is definitely different．"Shirley Watts plans to show others her art．"I want to make a masterpiece that I can put in a frame and put it on my wall and then I know that I did it，"she said．
Allita Irby says anyone can do it and all you have to do is open your eyes and bring the outside in．

51．The first paragraph is written to offerD．
A．the conditions of making plastics
B．the importance of plastic bags 
C．the reason for using plastics
D．the background of the story
52．We can learn that Allita IrbyC．
A．will never use plastic bags herself
B．pays much attention to her hair style
C．was born in a Native American family
D．only uses plastics to make art works now
53．What do you know about Allita Irby's art works before she used plastic bags？D
A．They are similar to Navaho hair styles．
B．They are actually tools used in daily life．
C．They offer Irby the inspiration to recycle plastic bags．
D．They are made of natural materials．
54．What do Allita Irby，Charlotte Hogan，Aleta Mryer and Sjirley Watts have in common？A
A．They live in the same neighborhood．
B．They are all mixed media artists．
C．They are active in protecting the environment．
D．They learn art from the same master．
55．As for art works made from wastes，C．
A．Watts follows Irby to make art works．
B．Meyer says she'll never make plastic arts．
C．Irby thinks what it needs is to discover beauty．
D．Hogan thinks they are the best ones for churches．
1．How do you improve your English speaking skills，so that you can communicate more easily and effectively？These tips will help you to become a more confident speaker．
Practice where you can and when you can．Any practice is good---whether you
speak to someone who is a native English speaker or not．
It's important to build your confidence．If possible，use simple sentence structure that you know is correct so that you can concentrate on getting your message across．
Try to experiment with the English you know．Apply words and phrases you know to new situations．Native English speakers are more likely to correct you if you use the wrong word than if you use the wrong grammar．Experimenting with vocabulary is a really good way of getting feedback（反馈）
Try to respond to what people say to you．You can often get clues to what people think by looking at their body language．Respond to them in a natural way．
Try not to translate into and from your own language．It takes too much time and you will find it difficult to get an English answer right away．You don？t know how to do well．The more you want to act well，the more slowly you act．This will make you more shilly-shally．
If you forget a word，do what native English speakers do all the time，and say things that‘fill'the conversation．This is better than remaining completely silent．Try using‘um'，or‘er'，if you forget the word．
Don't speak too fast!It？s important to use a natural rhythm in speaking English，but if you speak too fast it will be difficult for people to understand you．
Try to relax when you speak and you，11 find that your mouth does most of the pronunciation work for you．Speak English at normal speed．Final tips
-Try to become less hesitant and more confident．
-Don't be shy to speak------the more you do it，the more confident you，11 become．
-Remember to be polite------use"please"and"thank you"if you ask someone to
do something for you．
60．What is the passage mainly about？B
A．Good ways of studying English well．
B．Suggestions on becoming a confident speaker．
C．Things to pay attention to when learning English．
D．How to correct your mistakes as you speak English．
61．How many tips does the author offer in the passage？C
A.9．   B.10．   C.11．   D.12．
62．The underlined word"shilly-shally"means in the passageD．
A．sure about what to do
B．fast to make a good decision
C．successful in answering some questions
D．uncertain about how to express oneself
63．Which of the following will the writer agree with？B
A．It's not necessary to pay attention to others？body language．
B．It doesn't matter that you forget a word when you are speaking．
C．When practising English，you must talk with native English speakers．
D．Native English speakers will correct your grammar mistakes when you speak．
18．Have you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it？Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind．How can you use this to increase your brain power？Start writing．
By putting thoughts into words，you are telling yourself the logic （逻辑） behind what you think，feel，or only partly understand．Often，explaining a thought is the process of understanding．In other words，you increase your brain power by exercising your"explain power．"
Try this experiment．Explain how you'll increase your brain power，even if you have no idea how right now．Just start with anything，and create an explanation．For example，start with"I'll learn chess，"or"I'll read an article on the mind every week．"Explain how that will help．You'll be surprised how often this becomes a workable plan，and if you actually do this，you'll have a better understanding of your brain twenty minutes from now．
Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember．Many，if not most，highly productive people are always taking notes．You can try keeping it all in your head，but if you keep a journal of your ideas the next time you're working on a big project，you'll probably have more success．
Want to understand a topic？Write a book about it．That's an extreme example，but if you are learning something new，write a letter to a friend about it，and you will understand it better．Want to invent something？Write an explanation of the problem，why you want to solve it，and why it is worth solving，and ou're half-way there．
Writers don't always write because they clearly understand something beforehand．Often，they write about something because they want to understand it．You can do the same．Writing will help bring you to an understanding．Give it a try．

19．People are always afraid of making mistakes．But sometimes it is not bad to make mistakes，and here is why．
  First of all，mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying n ew things．It's always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing．If you never try new things，how can you improve？How can you create？The simple answer is，"You can't．"Look around you．Everything you see is the result of someone trying new things．
  Another good thing about mistakes is this：when you are making mistakes，you are learning．Consider this：Edison failed 10，000 times before he invented the light bulb．When he was asked how he felt after having failed so many times，he claimed that he hadn't failed 10，000 times，but had learned 10，000 things that didn't work．
  Finally，when you make a mistake，you are much closer to your goal．Why？Because you have said what you should say，and you have done what you should do．Every time you make a mistake，you are closer to your goal．But it doesn't mean that you can make mistakes without thinking．Instead，when you try new things，you have to think them over so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes．
  As the old saying goes，"If you are not making mistakes，you are not trying hard enough．"So go bravely and make mistakes．And learn．And grow．And succeed．
28．When you are trying new things，C．
A．you are ca reful    B．you're kind   C．you're growing    D．you know nothing
29．After he failed 10，000 times，EdisonB．
A．gave up his experiment        
B．invented the light bulb
C．set up a new laboratory        
D．made 10，000 new things
30．The underlined word"claimed"probably meansA．
A．said        B．shouted        C．required       D．cried
31．What is the main idea of the text？A
A．It's not bad to make mistakes sometimes．
B．When to correct mistakes．
C．It's not good to make mistakes sometimes．
D．How to correct mistakes．
