            • 1. As we know,it is common for people to catch a cold in winter and most people believe they know the reason for colds.However,scientists say people have some wrong beliefs about the cause of colds.
              Many people think that once you get infected by colds,you will not be easy to be attacked by colds for the rest of your life.That's not the case.There are about 200different viruses that cause the common cold.You catch a cold because of one kind of them this time,but you might catch a cold next time because of another.
              Others believe that people get sick just because of the cold weather in winter.That is also wrong.
              It's because people tend to stay closer in winter and the cold virus is transmitted  from one person to another through handshakes,sneezing,or coughing.
              While there is no actual cure for the common cold,scientists say there are still a few things you can do to help you.Some experts say honey and chicken soup are effective against colds.Especially honey.There is increasing evidence that it helps shorten the duration of the common cold sometimes even by two to three days particularly in children.Chicken soup also helps reduce the duration of the cold.
              In addition,if you do have a cold and you don't feel like eating anything,it's not going to hurt you but you have to drink a lot and you can drink water or tea because doctors say the water cycle in your bodies helps to cure colds.That's very important.Though there is more than one way to deal with colds,doctors say the best advice is to continue using whatever works best for you.

              9.We know from the second paragraph that    
              A.colds can be caused by different viruses      
              B.there are people who never catch a cold
              C.the common cold is caused by only one virus  
              D.all people are easily attacked by colds
              10.The underlined word"transmitted"in the fourth paragraph means"    ".
              A.cured         B.changed      
              C.passed        D.caused
              11.If you have a cold,you can do the following except    
              A.drinking a lot of water   
              B.forcing yourself to eat    
              C.eating honey  
              D.drinking chicken soups
              12.It can be inferred from the passage that    
              A.different people may have different ways to fight against colds
              B.now scientists have found out practical treatment for colds
              C.working in freezing weather is the main reason for colds
              D.colds can be passed from animals to human beings.
            • 2. You may know the English letters A,B and C.But do you know there are people called ABC?You may like eating bananas.But did you know there is such a thing as a"banana person"?How strange!Are these people from"another earth"?No.They are just Chinese people like you and me.
                  ABC means American-born Chinese.An ABC is a Chinese,but was born in the United States.Sometimes,people call an ABC a"banana person".A banana is yellow outside and white inside.So,when a person is a banana,he or she is white inside-thinking like a Westerner and yellow outside-looking like a Chinese.
                  Do you know why?Usually,ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language.Some of them don't speak Chinese.Also,they are not interested in Chinese politics.
                  But if ABCs cannot speak Chinese,can we still call them Chinese people?Yes,of course.They are Chinese.They are overseas Chinese.These people may be citizens of another country like the US,Canada or Singapore.But they have Chinese blood.Their parents,grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China.They all have black eyes and black hair.But they are not Chinese citizens.They are not people of the People's Republic of China.For example,we all know the famous scientist C.N.Yang.He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957.Chinese people love him.But he is an American citizen.
              12."ABC"in this text stands for"    ".
              A.three English letters         B.a kind of banana
              C.Chinese born in America       D.Americans born in China
              13.Chinese in Western countries are called"banana persons"because    
              A.their bodies are white inside but yellow outside
              B.they think like Westerners but look like Chinese
              C.they were born in China but go to study in America
              D.they are Chinese who look like bananas
              14.C.N.Yang is mentioned here to show that    
              A.American Chinese are great
              B.we love American Chinese
              C.Chinese people can win Nobel Prizes
              D.American Chinese are not Chinese citizens
              15.This text is mainly about    
              A.different kinds of bananas
              B.overseas Chinese
              C.the Nobel Prize
              D.the life story of C.N.Yang.
            • 3. Life is good for penguins in Antarctica(南极洲)at the end of the movie Happy Feet.Real-life penguins,though,have little to celebrate.
              Twelve of the world's 19penguin species(种类)face serious dangers,according to wildlife experts.
              They are in danger of disappearing from the earth,including emperor penguins.
              "Many of the world's penguin species are in big trouble,"penguin expert Kassel Siegel told WR News.
              Her wildlife group is asking the US government to protect the 12species of penguins in danger.Several countries are making efforts to make sure the rapidly increasing tourists in Antarctica do not cause environmental problems.
              Overfishing is one reason for the problem.Penguins eat small fish and tiny animals called krill.Fishing boats are catching lots of krill.That leaves less food for penguins to eat.
              Another reason for the decline(减少)in the number of penguins is global warming.Global warming is the slow increase in average temperature around the world.It is causing sea ice to melt.Penguins need the sea ice as a place to rest while they search for krill.
              Scientists say global warming is caused when we drive cars or use electricity.That burns coal,oil,and natural gas.The burning of coal,oil,and natural gas gives off gases that add to the overheating of the earth."We can and must reduce gas emissions(排放)to keep penguins safe in the future,"says Siegel.

              24.What would probably happen if people reduced their use of coal,oil,and natural gas?    
              A.Penguins would have to move toother places to live.
              B. Penguins would be less likely to disappear from the earth.
              C.There would be more krill for penguins to eat.
              D.t would save people a lot of money.
              25.Which o the following are the reasons for the decline in the number of penguins?    
              A.The development of tourism and overheating.
              B.Overfishing and attacks from other animals.
              C.Overfishing and overheating.
              D.The develoment of tourism and attacks from other animals.
              26.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?    
              A.Penguins mainly live on small fish and tiny animals which live in water.
              B.Penguins need the sea ice as a place to feed their children.
              C.Nineteen of the world's penguin species face serious dangers.
              D.The US government has taken measures to protect the penguins in danger.
            • 4. Given that many people's moods (情绪)are regulated by the chemical action of chocolate,it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made the chocolate shop similar to a drugstore of Chinese medicine.Looking like a setting from the film Charlie & the Chocolate Factory,Singapore's Chocolate Research Facility (CRF) has over 100 varieties of chocolates.Its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents'comer store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.
              If the CRF seems to be a smart idea,that's because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi's and Sony.That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored(味道)chocolates.
              The CRF's produce is"green",made within the country and divided into 10 lines,with the Alcohol Series being the most popular.The Exotic Series一with Sichuan pepper,red bean (豆).cheese and other flavors一also does well and is fun to taste.And for chocolate snobs,who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate than others,the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo,Cuba,Venezuela,and Ghana,among others.

              29.What is good about chocolate?    
              A.It serves as a suitable gift.
              B.It works as an effective medicine.
              C.It helps improve the state of mind.
              D.It strengthens business relations.
              30.Why is Chris Lee able to develop his idea of the CRF?    
              A.He knows the importance of research.
              B.He learns form shops of similar types.
              C.He has the support of many big names
              D.He has a lot of marketing experience.
              31.Which line of the CRF produce sells best?    
              A.The Connoisseur Series.
              B.The Exotic Series.
              C.The Alcohol Series.
              D.The Sichuan Series.
              32.The words"chocolate snobs"in Paragraph 3 probably refer to people who    
              A.are particular about chocolate          
              B.know little about cocoa beans
              C.look down upon others          
              D.like to try new flavors.
            • 5. It seems hard to watch someone yawn(打哈欠)and not to yawn ourselves.Even reading about yawning can make you do it.Now,a new study has found why yawning has such a powerful force.
              Yawning when others yawn,the study suggests,is a sign of pity and a form of social connection.Kids don't develop this deeply rooted behavior until around age four,the study found.Kids with autism (自闭症) are less likely to catch yawns.In the most serious cases,they never do.Yawning might help doctors to see whether the children are developing rightly.The work could also lead to a better understanding of the ways that people communicate and connect.
              "Emotional infection seems to be a born thing that connects us together,"said Molly Helt,a graduate student in psychology at the University of Connecticut."Yawning may be part of that."Inspiration for her study came when she tried to get her own autistic son to clear his ears on an airplane.She repeatedly yawned at him,hoping he would yawn back.He never did.
              "The fact that autistic kids don't do it might mean they're really missing out on that emotional connection with people around them,"she said."The biggest thing people try to figure out after birth is how we become humans and understand that humans have minds that are different from others',"she added."Autistic people never seem to understand that."
              Like infectious(有感染力的)laughter and crying,scientists have found that yawning is a shared experience that promotes social connection.Helt said it could fight stress after a period of being nervous and spread a feeling of calm through a group.

              32.According to the first two paragraphs,what does the new study suggest?    
              A.Yawning is a form of communication.
              B.It is easy to stop yawning when you see others yawn.
              C.Children follow others in yawning just after they are born.
              D.Yawning has some mysterious force which is related to God.
              33.According to Molly Helt,    
              A.humans differ from animals because they communicate with others
              B.yawning is a kind of emotional connection among humans
              C.emotions are infectious,but yawning is not
              D.yawning helps clear ears on planes
              34.Which of the following is NOT true about yawning?    
              A.It is natural to yawn back if people around you yawn.
              B.Some kids are too young to yawn after others.
              C.Yawning can be used to test children's development.
              D.Kids with autism yawn easily when others yawn.
              35.The author implies in the last paragraph that    
              A.yawning can make people feel relaxed
              B.it is bad manners to yawn on some social occasions
              C.the more you yawn,the happier you will be
              D.yawning is different from infectious laughter and crying in theory.
            • 6. In most towns today,you can see teenagers standing over electronic machines with flashing lights,shooting at spaceships from other planets and dropping bombs on strange monsters(恶魔).The machines have names like Space Warrior,Dark Invader and so on.It used to be believed that damage was done only to those strange visitors from outer space,but now it seems that they are striking back.
               Many teenagers like electronic games so much that they can't stop playing.They spend hours tightly holding the joystick controls and constantly pressing buttons marked"fire".They develop pains on their fingers because of the constant pressure.They play and play that the pains have no chance to cure properly.The rapid wrist movement required to guide the spaceship across the screen causes another problem:The muscles of the wrist and arm become so inflamed and swollen(充血红肿) that they press against the bones.This condition is what doctors now call"Space Warrior's Wrist".
              Other strange aches and pains also are likely to affect the elbows and shoulders.
              Another even more alarming problem is shown by the case of a 17-year-old girl which was recently reported in the British Medical Journal.She had been playing various kinds of electronic games for more than two hours a day.Her father repaired games and machines and she could use the cassettes and systems in his workshop as often as she liked.One day,after playing a game called Dark Invader,she lost consciousness(晕倒) and fell to the floor.
              Doctors who examined her found she was suffering from an unusual illness caused by lights flashing at a particular frequency.

              12.Electronic games are found very popular with    
              A.people living in towns                   
              B.students studying in high schools
              C.girls working in their father's workshops    
              D.young people
              13."Space Warrior's Wrist"is caused by    
              A.constantly pressing the buttons            B.rapidly moving across the screen
              C.tightly holding the joystick controls      D.inflamed and swollen muscles of the wrist
              14.The case of a 17-year-old girl given by the writer shows that the writer    
              A.supports playing electronic games    
              B.feels very sorry for the girl
              C.disagreed with young people's playing electronic games
              D.feels worried about young people's poor health
              15.From the passage we can conclude that playing electronic games is    
              A.enjoyable and helpful to the study     
              B.exciting but harmful to the health and study
              C.interesting but harmless to the eyes     
              D.amusing and satisfying.
            • 7. Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family,and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck.I'm not going to say luck,talent,and circumstances don't come into play because they do.Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence,and that's just the reality of how life is.
              However,to succeed in life,one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical.And,in addition to that,in order to get really good at something,one needs to spend at least 10,000hours studying and practicing.To become great at certain things,it'll require even more time,time that most people won't put in.
              This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love.If you don't enjoy what you do,it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.
              When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success,you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost.It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent,but thinking that way does you no good,and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway.
              Whatever you do,if you want to become great at it,you need to work day in and day out,almost to the point of addiction,and over a long period of time.If you're not willing to put in the time and work,don't expect to receive any rewards.Consistent hard work won't ensure you the level of success you may want,but it will ensure that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.

              24.Paragraph 1mainly talks about    
              A.the meaning of success  B.the reasons for success
              C.the standards of successD.the importance of success
              25.In Paragraph 2,the underlined word"that"refers to    
              A.setting a practical goal             B.being good at something
              C.putting in more time                 D.succeeding in life
              26.Successful people suggest doing what one loves because    
              A.it takes a lot of time to succeed     B.work makes one feel pain
              C.one gives up his work easily       D.one tends to enjoy his work
              27.What can we infer from Paragraph 4?    
              A.Successful people like to show their great skills.
              B.People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
              C.People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
              D.It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.
            • 8. Losing weight has become a major concern for so many people.People try different weight loss methods,some of which will never work,while others provide just a temporary solution.It is important to note that there are some green ways to lose weight that are not only healthy and effective but also good for the environment.
              Growing your own vegetables can ensure that you are eating healthy foods.The process is even better if you can use organic manure(肥料).It is not only a good way to go green; it also provides you with plenty of physical exercise.Preparing a garden,including planting and taking care of the vegetables,is a great way to achieve a healthy weight.
              If you usually eat meat on a daily basis,you should consider replacing that meat with more vegetables.If you have no idea what vegetarian( 素食主义者)diets are like,you can do  research on the Internet,and you can also get information from vegetarian magazines such asVegetarian Times Magazine.By reducing your intake of meat,you will be able to reduce your intake of fats,and hence,it will be easier for you to get rid of some weight.
              Reduce periods of driving and try walking or cycling instead.If you are used to driving your car,it would be great for you if you substituted walking or cycling for driving.Cycling and walking are good workouts that will ensure that your body burns excess fat and calories,and therefore,you will be able to lose weight.
              It is important to know that there are so many ways in which we can turn our bad habits into good ones.Most of these good habits will not only benefit our bodies; they will also make the world a better place for all of us.

            • 9. It happened to me recently.I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama's Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President.A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was,in his words,"a brilliantly (精彩地)written book".However,he then went on to talk about Mr.Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all.I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.
              And it seems that my friend is not the only one.Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven't.In the World Book Day's"Report on Guilty Secrets",Dreams From My Father is at number 9.The report lists ten books,and various authors,which people have lied about reading,and as I'm not one to lie too often (I'd hate to be caught out),I'll admit here and now that I haven't read the entire top ten.But I am pleased to say that,unlike 42percent of people,I have read the book at number one,George Orwell's 1984.I think it's really brilliant.
              The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it.It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen,Charles Dickens,Fyodor Dostoevsky (I haven't read him,but haven't lied about it either) and Herman Melville.)
              Asked why they lied,the most common reason was to"impress"someone they were speaking to.This could be tricky if the conversation became more in-depth!
              But when asked which authors they actually enjoy,people named J.K.Rowling,John Grisham,Sophie Kinsella (ah,the big sellers,in other words).Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story (I'll come clean:I do this and am astonished that 58percent said they had never done so).

              29.How did the author find his friend a book liar?    
              A.By judging his manner of speaking.
              B.By looking into his background.
              C.By mentioning a famous name.
              D.By discussing the book itself.
              30.Which of the following is a"guilty secret"according to the World Book Day report    
              A.Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list.
              B.42% of people pretended to have read 1984.
              C.The author admitted having read 9books.
              D.Dreams From My Father is hardly read.
              31.By lying about reading,a person hopes to    
              A.control the conversation           
              B.appear knowledgeable
              C.learn about the book              
              D.make more friends
              32.What is the author's attitude to 58% of readers?

              B.Uncaring
              C.Doubtful

            • 10. (2015春•菏泽期中)Can you imagine a world without chocolate?It's not something I'd 1ike to do.so I was relieved to read that there's a university with a programme to safeguard the future of chocolate!
              The University of Reading,in England,has just opened a new clearing house for all the world's new cocoa varieties.They must be quarantined(隔离检疫)before they can be grown.Why?Cocoa production hit a record high of 4.4million tons last year but about 30%of the precious crop is regularly lost to pests and diseases.Now we don't want that,do we?
              Demand for chocolate has been increasing faster than the world supply of cocoa and researchers think that new varieties are key to solving this problem.
              The University of Reading has been protecting the quality of the new crops since 1985,after it took over the task from the Royal Botanical Gardens in Kew,London.And it has improved its facilities.The leader of the institution's cocoa project,Professor Paul Hadley,says,"One of the main issues concerning cocoa improvement is the supply of reliably clean,healthy,interesting cocoa material."
              The cocoa centre has a collection of 400plant varieties and their greenhouse uses a lot of  energy to keep them in tropical conditions.After up to two years in quarantine,clean and safe  seeds are sent to some 20countries,including several in West Africa.That's where 75%of the  cocoa used for chocolate worldwide comes from.The crop is extremely important for the local  economy:it employs about two million people.
              Professor Hadley says he works with a small team of skilled technicians who look after the collection.And more of us seem to count on them now.
              The scientist says,"there is some concern within the industry that demand is increasing  constantly,particularly in countries like China,where the standard of living is increasing and  people are getting a taste for different chocolates."

              24.What is the text mainly about?    
              A.Safeguarding cocoa seeds.
              B.Planting cocoa worldwide.

              C.ensure the quality of cocoa 
              D.supply cocoa for two million people
