阅读理解。     As is known, healthy foods can help save your life. Now, here is a list of healthy foods that can save your
memory. It is best that every person knows what he eats, as he takes in, can make or break himself, in terms
of health.
     Fish is helpful in regaining back the kind of memory that a person once has. Eating fish can help you save
the trouble of forgetfulness. Vegetables rich in fiber and other dark and green leafy kinds are very suitable for
people who want to avoid mental blocks. These foods contain high units of vitamin E.
     Another food that is considered having different effects on preventing this brain deficiency (缺陷) is
avocado (鳄梨), which is also rich in vitamins E and C. It is really good to know these healthy foods that can
save your memory are always at hand so as to help you in your fight against diseases. Sunflower seeds are
regarded as Vitamin C-powered seeds and also give you enough energy.

help the body. Over-drinking can cause illness and like anything else. This is considered as one of the healthy
foods that can save your memory; alcohol can otherwise lose it.
     It is better to consume colored bread, rice and whole grains for you to get the best out of fiber. These
foods can lower the body"s risk of being infected with Alzheimer"s disease (老年痴呆病).

阅读理解。     Green-space facilities are contributing to an important extent to the quality of the urban environment.
Fortunately it is no longer necessary that every lecture or every book about this subject has to start with
the proof of this idea. At present it is generally accepted, although more as a self-evident statement than
on the base of a closely-reasoned scientific proof. The recognition of the importance of green-space in
the urban environment is a first step on the right way; this does not mean, however, that enough details
are known about the functions of greenspaces in towns and about the way in which the inhabitants (居民)
are using these spaces.
     The theoretical separation of living, working, traffic and recreation which for many years has been
used in town-and-country planning, has in my opinion resulted in disproportionate (不成比例的) attention
for forms of recreation far from home, whereas (但是) there was relatively little attention for improvement
of recreative possibilities in the direct neighborhood of the home. We have come to the conclusion that this
is not right, because an important part of the time which we do not pass in sleeping or working, is used for
activities at and around home. So it is obvious that recreation in the open air has to begin at the street door
of the house. The urban environment has to offer as many recreation activities as possible, and the design
of these has to be such that more obligatory(强制性的) activities can also have a recreative aspect.
     The very best standard of living is nothing if it is not possible to take a pleasant walk in the district, if the
children cannot be allowed to play in the streets, because the risks of traffic are too great, if during shopping
you can nowhere find a spot of enjoying for a moment the nice weather, in short, if you only feel yourself
at home after the street door of your house is closed after you. 1. According to the author, the importance of greenspaces in the urban environment ____. A. is still unknown
B. is being closely studied
C. is usually neglected
D. has been fully recognized 2. The theoretical separation of living, working, traffic and recreation has led to ____. A. the disproportion of recreation facilities in the neighborhood
B. all of the recreation facilities far from home
C. relatively little attention for recreative possibilities
D. the improvement of recreative possibilities in the neighborhood 3. The author suggests that the recreative possibilities of greenspaces should be provided ____. A. in special areas
B. in the suburbs
C. in the neighbourhood of the home
D. in gardens and parks 4. The author says "more obligatory activities can also have a recreative aspect" to ____. A. suggest that obligatory activities don"t need to serious
B. show that recreation activities are very important
C. show how recreation activities have spread wildly
D. suggest how to offer recreation activities around home 5. Why would someone only feel himself at home according to the last paragraph? A. One lives the very best standard of living.
B. There are too many distractions outside his home.
C. There are few recreations around his house.
D. One needs the street door of his house to be opened always.

阅读理解。     From babies to body builders, we all have muscles. They grow, they bulge (鼓起), they stretch and
sometimes they even painfully pull. But for all the work they do for us, we are still unable to crown one
as "the strongest muscle".
     Instead, a few muscles could claim the title, depending on how strength is measured.
     If the title goes to the muscle that can exert the most force, the victor would be the soleus (小腿肚肌),
according to Gray"s "Anatomy". Without this muscle, we wouldn"t be able to stand, walk, run or shake
our bodies on the dance floor. If the soleus was not continuously pulling, we would always be falling over
ourselves (although some of us tend to do that from time to time anyway).
     But perhaps the title should go to the muscle that exerts the most pressure. Pressure is different from
force-pressure takes into account the area over which a force is exerted. The muscle that takes the prize
for delivering the greatest amount of pressure is the masseter, or the jaw muscle, according to the book
"Clinical Oral Science" (Reed Educational and Professional Publishing, 1998).
     In 1986, Richard Hofmann of Lake City, Fla., achieved a bite strength of 975 pounds for two seconds,
setting a Guinness Record. Talk about jaw dropping! The jaw is able to clench (咬紧) and chew because
of the masseter muscle.
     Others may argue the muscles used in childbirth are the most powerful.
     When it comes to versatility, perhaps the tongue is the strongest muscle. Its combination of elasticity
(伸缩性) and forcefulness gives us the ability to speak, eat and kiss-all things very desirable on a first date.
However dexterous (灵巧的) it may be though, its power does not match that of muscles such as the soleus.
     If slow and steady wins the race, the heart is certainly a contender for the title. When it contracts, the
muscle pumps about 2 ounces of blood, and is constantly working over a lifetime. Beating about 40 million
times a year, a person"s heart will beat approximately 2. 5 billion times by the time of their 70th birthday. 1. According to the passage, the underlined word "contender" in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to
   "____" A. failure
B. partner
C. muscle
D. competitor 2. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. What"s the strongest muscle in the human body?
B. Who is the strongest person in the world?
C. What are the functions of different muscles?
D. What are the standards of the strongest muscle? 3. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Without the soleus, we could still stand, walk, run or shake our bodies on the dance floor.
B. A few muscles could be the winners, according to different measures.
C. The muscles used in childbirth are the most powerful.
D. The tongue is the strongest muscle for delivering the greatest amount of pressure. 4. What would be discussed in following paragraph?  A. Another possible strongest muscle.
B. The conclusion of the strongest muscles.
C. The functions of different muscles.
D. The Guinness Record of the strongest muscle.

阅读理解。     West Virginia-Public schools are using a dance video game to help get students in shape. In these schools,
students are often told to turn off their video games and get some exercise. The schools have found a new
way for their students to work out while playing a new video game. West Virginia is one of the heaviest states
in the country. About half of its fifth-graders are considered to be overweight, and their parents are worried
about that. To get them moving on a healthier path, the state"s public schools are using a video game called
"Dance Revolution".
     To use the game, players should stand on a special mat in front of a TV screen. Following arrows on the
screen, players must move their feet to the specific symbols on the mat. Players must move quickly, touching
symbols on the mat at just the right time. With each song, they get more exercise.
     "If we can get children to change their behavior at a young age, they will hopefully grow up to be healthy
and active adults," said Carl Callison of Mountain State Blue Cross, a health care company.
     West Virginia is ranked among the top three heaviest states. About a third of West Virginians are considered
to be obese (肥胖的). Even more are considered to be overweight. Extra weight can lead to serious health
problems such as high blood pressure, diabetes (糖尿病), some cancers, and many other health issues.
     "One out of three children born in West Virginia today will have diabetes by the time they grow up," said
Nidia Henderson, a manager for the public employees insurance program. "That"s a terrible thing and not
acceptable."
     All of West Virginia"s 157 middle schools are using the video game. School officials hope that all public
schools in the state will use the game within the next three years. However, officials emphasize that the game
is not meant to substitute physical education and health classes. The game will be part of physical education
classes and after-school programs. 1. Why do public school in West Virginia develop "Dance Revolution"? A. Because most of" students don"t like dancing.

D. who can practise the game 3. According to the text, which of the following is NOT true? A. About one person in three West Virginians is overweight.
B. Overweight may cause a lot of diseases.
C. The problem of students" overweight has been realized.
D. There are only 157 middle schools in West Virginia. 4. The underlined word "substitute" in the last paragraph means ____. A. replace

阅读理解。     We produce 500 billion of plastic bags in a year worldwide and they are thrown away polluting oceans,
killing wildlife and getting dumped in landfills where they take up to 1,000 years to decompose. Researchers
have been unsuccessfully looking for a solution.
     The 16-year-old Canadian high school student, Daniel Burd, from Waterloo Collegiate Institute, has
discovered a way to make plastic bags degrade (降解) in as few as 3 months. a finding that won him first
prize at the Canada-Wide Science Fair, a $ 10,000 prize, a $ 20,000 scholarship, and a chance to revolutionize
a major environmental issue.
     Burd"s strategy was simple: Since plastic does eventually degrade, it must be eaten by microorganisms (微
生物). If those microorganisms could be identified, we could put them to work eating the plastic much faster
than under normal conditions.
     With this goal in mind, he grounded plastic bags into a powder and concocted (调制) a solution of
household chemicals, yeast (酵母) and tap water to encourage microbes growth. Then he added the plastic
powder and let the microbes work their magic for 3 months. Finally, he tested the resulting bacterial culture
on plastic bags, exposing one plastic sample to dead bacteria as a control. Sure enough, the plastic exposed
(暴露) to the live bacteria was 17% lighter than the control after six weeks.
     The inputs are cheap, maintaining the required temperature takes little energy because microbes produce
heat as they work, and the only outputs are water and tiny levels of carbon dioxide.
     "Almost every week I have to do chores and when I open the closet door, I have piles of plastic bags
falling on top of me. One day, I got tired of it and I wanted to know what other people are doing with these
plastic bags. The answer: not much. So I decided to do something myself." said Daniel Burd. 1. Daniel Burd won first prize at the Canada-Wide Science Fair because ____. A. he found a new kind of microorganism
B. he contributed much to environmental protection
C. he found a way to degrade plastics in shorter time
D. he could encourage microbes growth in an easier way 2. Daniel Burd exposed one plastic sample to dead bacteria to ____. A. make the live bacteria work better
B. test how effective his method was
C. know which bacteria worked faster
D. control the temperature in the process 3. Maintaining the required temperature takes little energy because ____. A. plastics can get hot easily
B. microbes can produce heat themselves
C. much carbon dioxide is produced
D. the temperature can be controlled 4. Daniel Burd got his idea from ____. A. his school textbook
B. the failure of researchers
C. his everyday work
D. the practice of other people

阅读理解。     We have met the enemy and he is ours. We bought him at a pet shop. When monkey-pox, a disease usually
found in the African rain forest suddenly turns up in children in the American Midwest, it"s hard not to wonder
of the disease that comes from foreign animals is homing in on human beings. "Most of the infections (感染)

says Peter Schantz. Monkey-pox may be the wake-up call Researchers believe infected animals may infect their
owners. We know very little about these new diseases. Anew bug (病毒) may be kind at first But it may develop
into something harmful (有害的). Monkey-pox doesn"t look a major infectious disease. But is not impossible to
