举一反三

Drunken driving sometimes called American"s socially accepted form of murder has become a national epidemic（流行病）．Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers, adding up to an incredible 250,000 over the past ten years．A drunken driver is usually referred to as one with 0．10-blood alcohol content or roughly three beers, glasses of wines or shots of whisky drunk within two hours．Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American manly image and judges were lenient in most courts, but the drunken killing has recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies, especially concerning young children, that public opinion is no longer tolerant．
Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21, reversing a trend （逆转潮流） in the 1960s to reduce it to 18．After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18-20-year-old drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped it back to 21．
Reformers, however, fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless accompanied by educational programs to help young people to develop "responsible attitudes" about drinking and teach them to resist peer pressure to drink．
Some states are punishing bars for serving customers too many drinks．A bar in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or more double brandies to a customer who was "obviously drunk" and later drove off the land, killing a nine-year-old boy．
As the accidents continue to occur daily in every state, some Americans are even beginning to speak well of the 13 years national prohibition （禁令） of alcohol that began in 1919, which President Hoover called the "noble experiment"．They forget that legal prohibition didn"t stop drinking, but encouraged political corruption （腐败） and organized crime．As with the booming drug trade generally, there is no easy solution．
小题1:It can be inferred from the passage that drunken driving has become a major problem in the United States because___．

A．most Americans like drinking

B．heavy dinking is hard to avoid

C．Americans are not shocked by traffic accidents

D．many Americans are killed by traffic accidents

小题2:Wha

t can be inferred from the fact of the traffic accidents in New Jersey?

A．Drivers should not be allowed to drink．

B．Young drivers were usually bad．

C．The legal drinking age should be raised．

D．Some drivers didn"t reach the legal drinking age．

小题3:The underlined word "lenient" in the first paragraph means___．

A．cruel

B．serious

C．determined

D．merciful§

小题4:Which of the following best shows the writer"s opinion of drunken driving?

A．It may cause organized crime．

B．The new laws can stop heavy drinking．

C．There should be no bars to serve drinks．

D．It is difficult to solve the problem．

I know what you’re thinking: pizza（比萨饼）？ For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the a.m. if you want to.

I know lots of women who skip breakfast (不吃早饭), and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it. Some say they don’t have time, others think they’re “saying” calories (卡路里)，still others just don’t like breakfast food.

学科But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight .“Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking, R.D. , who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece.

学科Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southern California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.

So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers – it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow.” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it … you may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects.

小题1:The word “leftovers” in paragraph I probably means ______.

A．food remaining after a meal	B．things left undone
C．meals made of vegetables	D．pizza topped with fruit

小题2:What can we infer from the text?

A．Working women usually have breakfast in a hurry.

B．Many people have wrong ideas about breakfast.

C．There are some easy ways of cooking a meal.

D．Eating vegetables helps save energy.

小题3:According to the last paragraph, it is important to _______.

A．eat something for breakfast	B．be careful about what you cat
C．heat up food before eating it	D．cat calorie-controlled food

小题4:The text is written mainly for those _______.

A．who go to work early	B．who want to lose weight
C．who stay up late	D．who eat before sleep

Want to be a happy married couple? Consider having kids．
A new study found that having children boosts happiness．And the more, literally, the merrier．
But unmarried couples shouldn’t expect to find greater happiness through child-raising．The study, published in the Oct．14 online edition of the Journal of Happiness Studies, suggests that having children has little or no effect on boosting happiness among couples who aren’t hitched(和谐)．
The findings contradict previous research that suggested that having more offspring doesn"t lead to greater happiness and might even make people less satisfied with their lives．One theory behind the conclusion is that parents don’t receive many rewards in return for the hard work of raising children．
The new study, however, notes that parents say children are one of the most important things in their lives, if not the most important．
The study found that life satisfaction for married people -- women especially -- goes up the more kids they have．Single, separated and co-habiting people, by contrast, report negative experiences．
“One is tempted to advance that children make people rich under the ‘right conditions’ -- a time in life when people feel that they are ready, or at least willing, to enter parenthood,” Dr．Luis Angeles, of the University of Glasgow in Scotland, said in a news release from the journal’s publisher．“This time can come at very different moments for different individuals, but a likely signal of its approach may well be the act of marriage．”
小题1:he underlined word “offspring” in the fourth paragraph can be replaced by _____．

A．generation

B．children

C．mothers

D．marriage

小题2:The best title of this passage should be _______．

A．Children Are the Source of Happiness

B．Are You Happy Married Couple?

C．Married with Children Paves Way to Happiness

D．The Right Conditions of Having Children

小题3:Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A．The more children women have, the happier they are．

B．The more children the married women have, the more unsatisfied they become．

C．Raising kids can give any person happiness．

D．Without marriage, one woman had better not raise kids．

小题4:In the passage, the underlined part ‘right conditions’ refers to _______．

A．a time when the couple are ready and willing to become parents

B．the situation where the family is rich enough to raise a child

C．the situation where the couple are very happy

D．a time when the couple thinks raising children can boost happiness

Once again, science supports what your grandmother told you: A good night"s sleep helps your body fight a cold.
People who averaged fewer than seven hours of sleep per   1  in the weeks before being exposed to the cold virus were nearly three times   2  likely to get sick as those who   3  eight hours or more, a new study found.
Researchers used frequent telephone   4  to track the sleep   5  of more than 150 men and women aged 21 to 55 over the course of a few weeks. Then they   6  the subjects to the virus, quarantined them for five days and kept   7  of who got sick.
8  sleeping more, sleeping better also seemed to   9  the body fight illness: Patients who fared better on a measure   10  as "sleep efficiency" - the percentage of time in bed that you"re actually sleeping - were also   11  likely to get sick.
The results held   12  even after researchers   13  for variables such as body-mass index, age, sex, smoking and pre-existing antibodies to the   14   .
15  your grandmother, the researchers aren"t exactly sure   16  sleeping better makes you less likely to   17  a cold. But they   18   take a stab at the answer: "Sleep disturbance influences the regulation of proinflammatory cytokines（促炎细胞因子）, histamines, and other symptom mediators that are released in response to infection." In plain English, maybe tossing and turning when you"re   19  with the cold virus   20  to the symptoms that define a cold.
The researchers were based at Carnegie Mellon, the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Virginia, and the study was funded by the National Institutes of Health.

Like poorly managed stress, anger that isn’t handled in a healthy way can be not only uncomfortable, but even damaging to one’s health and personal life. Consider the following research on anger:
One study from the University of Washington School of Nursing studied   1  problems in husbands and wives. Researchers cited(引用) previous evidence that anger problems and depressive symptoms have been linked to all major   2  of death, but found that wives specifically found a greater association between anger and  3  of depression,   4  men tended to instead experience an   5  between anger and health problems.
According to a study from Ohio State University, those who had less control over their anger   6  to heal more slowly from wounds. Researchers gave blisters(起疱膏) to 98 participants and found that, after 8 days, those who had less control over their anger also tended to be   7  healers.    8  , those participants also tended to have more cortisol (a stress hormone) in their system during the blistering procedure,   9  that they may be more stressed by difficult situations as well.
10  study from Harvard School of Public Health studied hostility(敌对行为) in men and found that those with  11  rates of hostility not only had poorer pulmonary functioning (breathing problems), but experienced higher rates of decline as they aged.
Research with children and   12  shows that anger   13  is important for the younger set as well. Findings showed that youth who cope inappropriately with their anger are at greater   14  for problem-ridden(受…支配的) interpersonal relationships. Their   15  is also at risk; those who cope poorly with anger tend to have more negative   16  when it comes to both mental and general health. This highlights the fact that anger management is an important skill to   17  early.
These are just a few of the many studies linking anger to   18  and emotional health problems, from the obvious to the   19  . Because poorly managed anger presents such a significant problem in so many areas of life, it’s important to take steps toward learning and using healthy anger management techniques in daily life,    20  stress management techniques.
