A

A quarrel at home may result in you falling ill. Don’t laugh, it’s true. Family matters including living habits and even the way we speak have a big effect on our health, doctors say.

Wang Xiaoyu, a Senior 2 girl from Xichang, Sichuan Province, fainted (晕倒) in class when she heard her classmates quarrel at the top of their voices. Quarrels between her parents also put the girl into a coma. It is because she is suffering from depression (抑郁症), caused by bad relations at home, doctors explained.

“We don’t get sick or stay well by ourselves,” says Dr Robert Ferrer from the US. Ferrer shows that family forces may explain up to a quarter of health problems, in his recent research.

The genes you get from your family may cause illness. If one of your parents has a heart attack, your risk of being affected may double. But effects on health are not only written in our DNA.

Unrelated people who live under the same roof also get similar problems. Diet, lifestyle and environment affect our health, too.

Ferrer’s research also found that if teenagers feel they are ignored or unimportant at home they are more likely to get sick.

We may never fully understand all the effects that families have on our health. But just as individual (个别的) problems can have effects on others, a small improvement can have big benefits, Ferrer said.

56.Which of the following can best explain why Wang Xiaoyu fainted in class?

A.  Because her classmates often quarreled in class.

B.  Because her parents used to quarrel.

C.  Because of her depression caused by bad family relations.

D.  Because her classmates shouted loudly at her.

57.According to Dr Ferrer, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A.  We get sick or stay well by ourselves.

B.  Only the genes we get from our family have a big effect on our health.

C.  Our health has nothing to do with diet, lifestyle and environment.

D.  Teenagers who are ignored at home get sick more easily than those who are not.

58.The underlined word “coma” in Paragraph2 probably means ________.

A. embarrassment        B. faint    C. tiredness         D. sadness            

59. The best title for this passage is ________.

A. Family relations.         B. The reasons why we get sick.

C. Happy family makes you healthy. D. A research about teenagers’ health.

B

Mauritius, an island country, lies 1,200 miles off the southeastern coast of Africa, and just east of Madagascar, another African island country, which is larger by far than Mauritius. It covers 788 square miles and has a population of 1,100,000, about 750,000 Indians, 300,000 Clioers, 30,000 Chinese and 20,000 Whites included. They are living together peacefully.

The country can be divided into many parts with different climates all because of its peculiar terrains(地形).In the center there are volcanoes several thousand feet high, and 90 percent of its arable land is covered with sugarcane.

There were no people living on the island before the Dutch landed on it in 1638. The Dutch abandoned it in 1710, and five years later, the French came and succeeded in planting sugarcane there. It was conquered by Britain in 1810.

Mauritius was extremely poor when it declared its independence in 1968. In the past ten years, obvious economic prosperity(繁荣)has shown itself in this island country.

60. The underlined words “abandoned it” in third paragraph means______.

     A. took its place    B. gave it up  C. left for it   D. held it out

61. The right order that shows the history of Mauritius should be   .

     a. seized by the French    b. became its master

     c. ruled by the Dutch      d conquered by the British

     A. b, a, c, d  B. a, c, d, b  C. d, c, a, b  D. c, a, d, b

62. According to the passage all of the following statements are true except   .

     A. Arable land covers 90 percent of the country’ s total area

B. It was the rule of foreigners that made the Mauritius people live in poverty

     C. More than half of Mauritius population are Indians

Sometimes children do not do what their parents tell them to do. When this happens, a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing. When this does not work, the parent usually punishes the child.

There are many things that a parent can do. One thing that people have done is to spank (打屁股) the child. When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on their bottom. This is meant to show the child that they have done something wrong.

One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child. His parents used a wooden spoon. When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his child’s leg. He never did that again.

One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing. Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard. Sometimes parents will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing.

Many parents are not sure of what to do instead of spanking. Some people think that their religion(宗教)tells them that spanking is okay. Some think that the law lets them do it. The courts say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave.

Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child. Telling the child exactly what is wanted from them can be one thing. Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried. Getting down to the child’s level and taking a more child-friendly approach can help as well.

64. According to the passage, when children do something wrong, one thing that parents usually do to punish them is to ________.

A. strike them on the bottom  B. try to help them do the right thing

C. teach them what to do   D. take them to court

65. Which of the following is NOT the problem caused by spanking?

A.  It teaches the child to hit others when they offend him or her.

B.  The parent may get angry and hit the child too hard.

C.  Sometimes parents may use spanking for everything.

D.  It makes parents try other ways to make the child do right.

66. Which of the following can best describe the writer’s attitude towards spanking?

A. favorable (赞同的) B. indifferent (不关心) C. interested D. unfavorable

67. From this passage, we can conclude that ________.

A. Good children always do the right thing.

B. Parents should try their best to avoid spanking their children.

C. Parents have no choice but to spank their children when they do something wrong.

D. Children can have more than one choice to avoid being spanked.

D

  Good readers know that reading isn’t just about knowing words — it’s a way of thinking. Smart readers think before, during and after reading. Here are some tips that may be of some help.

  Think before you read. Before you read the text, ask yourself the questions that why you are reading it and what you want to get from it. Answering the questions will help you choose what words you need to know and what words you can skip or scan.

  Think while you are reading. Can you get the meaning of the text without looking up new words in a dictionary? Are there any clues in the text? A text will often give examples that may help you understand what some of the words mean. Let’s take the following sentence for example.

  Many large Russian cities, such as Chelyabinsk and Irkutsk, have taken steps to protect their culture.

  The words “Chelyabinsk” and “Irkutsk” may be new to us, but the sentence tells us that they are examples of _______.

  Think after you read. Do you understand the text? What is the main idea of the text? Can you guess the meaning of the new words? Which words do you need to look up? Is the text too easy or too hard for you?

  If you practice reading and thinking in this way, you will become a smarter reader and you will learn more, faster and better.

68. This passage is probably taken from _______.

A. a newspaper for general readers   B. a magazine for language teachers
C. a book for language learners     D. an advertisement for a new book

69. Which of the following can best be put in the blank in the passage?

A. countries       B. mountains       C. rivers       D. cities

70. The author of the passage advises us to do all the following EXCEPT_______.

A. we should think before, while and after we read a passage
B. we’d better look up every new word in a dictionary
C. we should learn to guess the meanings of new words
D. the clues in a passage should be made use of

阅读短文,根据所读内容在表中的空格处填上适当的单词或短语,每空不超过3个单词。

There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.

People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things. The pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine, the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend (hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.

Though in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrong doings. These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.
