阅读理解。     Feel tired lately? Has a doctor said he can"t find anything wrong with you? Perhaps he has sent you to
a hospital, but all the advanced equipment there shows that there is nothing wrong with you.
     Then, consider this: you might be in a state of sub-health (亚健康). Sub-health, also called the third
state or gray state, is explained as a borderline(界限) state between health and disease.
     According to the survey by the National Health Organization, over 45 percent of sub-healthy people
are middle-aged or elderly. The percentage is even higher among people who work in management
positions as well as students around exam-week.
     Symptoms include a lack of energy, depression, slow reactions, insomnia, anger, and poor memory.
Other symptoms include shortness of breath, sweating and aching in the waist and legs.
     The key to preventing and recovering from sub-health, according to some medical experts, is to form
good living habits, alternate work and rest, exercise regularly, and take part in open air activities.
     As for meals, people are advised to eat less salt and sugar. They should also eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, fish because they are rich in nutritional elements -- vitamins and other elements that are important to
the body.
      Nutrition experts point out that it is not good to eat too much at one meal because it may cause
unhealthy changes in the digestive tract (消化道). They also say that a balanced diet is very helpful in
avoiding sub-health.1. According to this passage, which of the following is true?A. When you are in a state of sub-health, you should stay at home and keep silent.
B. When you are in a state of sub-health, you should go to see a doctor and buy some medicine.
C. When you are in a state of sub-health, you should have yourself examined in foreign countries.
D. When you are in a state of sub-health, you should find out the reasons and relax yourself.2. It may be easy for middle-aged people to get sub-healthy because _________.A. they have used up their energy

阅读理解。     As the pace (节奏) of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are
in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But
relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.
    Stress (压力) is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad
thing it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose
to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.
     The amount of stress a person can withstand (承受) depends very much on the individual. Some
people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial
responsibilities, others lose heart at the first sign of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in
whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between "flight or fight"
and in more primitive days the choices made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet
today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress, it involves the same response. It is when
such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes endangered. Since
we can"t remove stress from our lives (it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find
ways to deal with it.1. People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because _____.A. they regard working as their greatest enjoyment
B. they believe that work is superior to relaxation
C. they are traveling fast all the time
D. they are becoming busier with their work than ever before2. According to the author, the most important character for a good manager is his _____.A. strong will to withstand stress    
B. knowing the art of relaxation
C. high sense of responsibility      
D. having control over performance3. Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the passage?A. We can find quite a few ways to avoid stress.
B. Stress is always harmful to people"s health
C. It"s easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work.
D. Different people can bear different amount of stress.4. In the last sentence of the passage, "do so" refers to _____.A. "expose ourselves to stress"          
B. "find ways to deal with stress"
C. "remove stress from our lives"        
D. "establish links between diseases and stress"5. According to the author, the right attitude toward stress is _____.A. to avoid it                        
B. to try to deal with it
C. to regard it as a vital motivation      
D. to find some relaxation

阅读理解。     In the Caucasus region of Russia, nearly 50 out of every 100,000 people live to celebrate their 100th birthday, and many don"t stop at 100! By comparison, in America only 3 people in 100,000 reach 100. But these Russian old people aren"t alone. The Pakistanis, who live high in the Himalaya Mountains, and the Ecuadorans of the Andes Mountains seem to share the secret of long life, too.
     These people remain healthy in body and spirit despite the passage of time. While many older persons in industrial societies become weak and ill in their 60s and 70s, some Caucasians aged 100 to 140, work in the fields beside their great-great-grandchildren. Even the idea of aging is foreign to them. When asked "at what age does youth end?" Most of these old people had no answer. Several replied, "Well, perhaps at age 80."
     What accounts for this ability to survive to such old age, and to survive so well?First of all, hard physical work is a way of life for all of these long-lived people. They begin their long days of physical labor as children and never seem to stop. For example, Mr. Rustam Mamedov is 142 years of age. His wife is 116 years old. They have been married for 90 years. Mr. Mamedov has no intention of retiring from his life as a farmer. "Why?What else would I do?"he asks.
     All these people get healthful rewards from the environment in which they work. They all come from mountainous regions. They live and work at elevations of 1,660 to 1,000 meters above sea level. The air has less oxygen and is pollution-free. This reduced-oxygen environment makes the heart and blood vessel(血管) system stronger.
     Another factor that may contribute to the good health of these people is their isolation. To a great extent, they are separated from the pressures and worries of industrial society.
     Inherited factors also play some role. Most of the longest-lived people had parents and grandparents who also reached very old ages. Good family genes may, therefore, be one factor in living longer.1. In the Causasus region of Russian, how many people can reach the age of 100 in 10,000?A. 5
B. 3
C. 50
D. 302. The example of Mr. And Mrs. Mamedov implies that some Caucasians aged 100 to 140 ___.A. become weak and hopeless            
B. are too old to work in the fields
C. are still working in the fields          
D. benefit from physical work3. What is the main way of life for all of these long-lived people?A. Retiring from their lives as farmers.  
B. Having been married for 90 years.
C. Hard physical work.
D. Having no intentions.4. At elevations of 1,220 to 1,000 meters above sea level, the air   __  .A. has less oxygen and clear
B. is seriously polluted
C. is rich in oxygen and pollution-free
D. is extremely smelly5. Which of the following factors isn"t helpful to people"s health and long life?A. Clean mountain air.                  
B. Stress and pressure.
C. Daily hard work.                  
D. Good genes.

阅读理解。     It had been a very disheartening day. The doctors had given us the worst of news. Our daughter, who
had just completed her first brain surgery to remove a tumor (肿瘤) and was going through radiation
treatment, was now officially given a two percent chance of survival as this type of cancer had no cure.
     My wife and I decided to take our daughter to lunch before continuing our afternoon conversation.
We went to a local restaurant where we sat in silence waiting for the waitress. I noticed a very elderly
couple sitting a few booths away, who were also in silence and did not speak a word. I couldn"t help but
wonder what challenges they had faced in their life and if they ever faced such terrible news about a child
of theirs.
     We eventually ordered our lunch and still sitting in silence we ate what we could. At some point I
became intrigued by the old couple. I thought to myself that they hadn"t yet spoken to each other and I
wondered if it was the peace they were enjoying or the food or maybe both. However, at some point I
lost interest and put my focus back on my lunch.
     Molly was still talking away and enjoying her meal. Her mom and I both listened and tried to be happy
in her presence but it wasn"t going very well. All of a sudden I saw a hand come out of nowhere. It was
huge and I could tell that it had been afflicted with arthritis (关节炎). I couldn"t take my eyes off that
hand. It landed on my daughter"s tiny six-year-old hand and as it did I looked up; it was the old woman
who had been sitting with the old man in silence eating their lunch.
     I looked into her eyes and she spoke, but not to me. She looked at my daughter and simply whispered, "If I could do more for you I would…" and then she smiled and moved away to join her husband, who
had moved towards the door.
     "Look, a whole dollar," Molly spoke with excitement as she discovered a crumpled one dollar bill left
behind by the old lady. I looked up to thank her, but she was gone. I sat stunned, not sure what had just
happened and then I looked over at my wife. In almost unison, we broke out into a smile. The sadness of
the day had been wiped out by the crippled hand and generous touch of the old lady. The dollar, although exciting to Molly, was not what made us smile; it was the offer from the old lady, who felt our suffering.
The crippled hand symbolized a healing touch and made us realize that we did not have to fight this battle
alone. 1. The author was _______, when he first caught sight of the old couple in the restaurant. A. curious      
B. confused      
C. upset      
D. indifferent2. By saying "If I could do more for you I would…the old woman means_______.  A. she had the ability to cure the disease of Molly
B. she had the responsibility for the safety of Molly
C. she was an old friend of the author and can lend some money to them
D. she would like to help Molly as much as possible3. What can we inferred from the passage? A. The author and his wife were not satisfied with the food in the restaurant.
B. The old couple had once gone through the same trouble as the author did.
C. The one dollar bill made the author feel touched by the warmth from others.
D. The old woman sympathized with Molly because she suffered from serious arthritis herself.4. What would be the best title of the text? A. A girl with cancer                    
B. A touch of heaven
C. A crippled hand                
D. A kind-hearted couple

阅读理解。     The most widespread fallacy(谬论) of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not. They are
caused by viruses passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact, directly
or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect
the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated arctic regions explorers have
reported people are free from colds until they come into contact again with infected people from the
outside world by way of packages and mails dropped from airplanes.
     During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches (战壕), cold and wet,
showed no increased tendency to catch colds.
     In the Second World War prisoners at the Auschwitz concentration camp, naked and starving, were
astonished to find that they seldom had colds. At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers
took part in experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long
stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be with cold
water, and then stood about dripping wet in a drafty (通风良好的)room. Some wore wet socks all day
while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a
cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose.
If, then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter?
Despite the most pains-taking research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by
scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this
makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on. 1. The writer offered _______ examples to support his argument.       A. 4
B. 5
C. 6
D. 72. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The Eskimos suffer from colds from time to time.
B. Colds are not always caused by cold.
C. People suffer from colds just because they like to stay indoors.
D. A person may catch a cold by touching someone who already has one.3. Arctic explorers may catch colds when they are _______.A. working in the isolated arctic regions
B. writing reports in terribly cold weather
C. free from work in the isolated arctic regions
D. coming into touch again with the outside world4. Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research Unit _______.A. suffered a lot  
B. never caught colds
C. often caught colds     
D. became very strong5. The passage mainly discusses _______.A. the experiments on the common cold
B. the fallacy about the common cold
C. the reason and the way people catch colds
D. the continued spread of common colds
