Oliver's highly-publicized television campaign to improve school lunches led to dramatic changes in the meals offered to pupils in the Greenwich schools . In order to achieve his aim Oliver needed to show schools how to swap(交换)cheap processed meals,which were high in staturated fat(饱和脂肪),salt,and sugar for healthies options.Now research at the institute for Social Economic Reasearch(ISER)has shown that Oliver's experiment did not only help pupils eat more healthly,it also resulted in them performing better at school in English and Science and in helping schools reduce their rates of absenteeism(缺勤).The ISER study carried out by Michele Belol and Jonathan James showed substantial positive effects with the performance of 11-year-old pupils eating Oliver’s meals improving by up to 8% in Science and by as much as 6%in English. In addition,the number of children having authorized absences for sickness since 2004 showed a 14% decrease.The ISER study analysed the academic lest results of more than 13000 children in Greenwich between 2002 and 2007 to evaluate the impact of Oliver's healthier meals on school performance. Pupils who sat exams in 2006-2007 had been on the new diet for at least 12 months and the researchers found that the number of pupils reaching higher levels of achievement had clearly risen.The study also compared the results of the schools in Greenwich with those of pupils of the same age in seven other London areas who did not eat the meals created by Oliver.The researchers were surprised by the speed of improvements in the Greenwich pupils. They could find no otherexplanation for the results except for healthier and more nutritous meals created by Oliver.Commenting on ISER's Findings Oliver said he felt the research proved that he was right in his decision to remove fatty processed food and replace it with nutrient-rich(营养的)foods such as coconut fish and broccoli(花椰菜).He commented that we could see that it made them calmer and therefore、able to learn.16、The Feed Me Better campaign targeted a healthier diet at school childrenA RightB WrongC Not mentioned17、Everyone believed the campaign should be succeifulA RightB WrongC Not mentioned18、The ISER is an instuteA RightB WrongC Not mentioned19、The puoils in Gtreewwich said they said they liked the healthier mealsA RightB WrongC Not mentioned20、The nwmber of pupils who asked for sick leave decreasedA RightB WrongC Not mentioned21、The ISEK didnot do a comparative study on the impact of the new dietA RightB WrongC Not mentioned22、The healthier diet has helped school childrecn improue academicallyA RightB WrongC Not mentioned三、概括大意Aromatherapy(芳香疗法)1 Aromatherapy is a form of alternative medicine which is based on the use of very concentrated essential oils from the flowers,leaves,bark,branches or roots of plants which are considered to have healing ptoperties.In aromatherapy these powerful oils are mixed with other oils,such as almond(杏仁)oil,or they are diluted(稀释)with water.These solutions(溶液剂)can be rubbed on the skin,sprayed in the air,or applied as a compress(敷药)。

第二篇 A Biological ClockEvery living thing has what scientists call a biological clock that controls behavior. The biological clock tells plants when to form flowers and when the flowers should open. It tells insects when to leave the protective cocoons and fly away,and it tells animals and human beings when to eat, sleep and wake.Events outside the plant and animal affect the actions of some biological clocks. Scientists recently found, for example, that a tiny animal changes the color of its fur because of the number of hours of daylight. In the short days of winter, its fur becomes white. The fur becomes gray brown in color in the longer hours of daylight in summer. Inner signals control other biological clocks. German scientists found that some kind of internal clock seems to order birds to begin their long migration flight twice each year. Birds prevented from flying become restless when it is time for the trip,but they become calm again when the time of the flight has ended.Scientists say they are beginning to learn which parts of the brain contain biological clocks. An American researcher, Martin Moorhead, said a small group of cells near the front of the brain seems to control the timing of some of our actions. These cells tell a person when to awaken, when to sleep and when to seek food . Scientists say there probably are other biological clock cells that control other body activities.Dr. Moorhead is studying how our biological clocks affect the way we do our work. For example, most of us have great difficulty if we must often change to different work hours.It can take many days for a human body to accept the major change in work hours. Dr. Moorhead said industrial officials should have a better understanding of biological clocks and how they affect workers. He said such understanding could cut sickness and accidents at work and would help increase a factory’s production.第九篇The Case of the Disappearing FingerprintsOne useful anti-cancer drug can effectively erase the whorls and other characteristic marks that give people their distinctive fingerprints. Losing them could become troublesome. A case released online in a letter by Annals of Oncology indicates how big a problem of losing fingerprints is.Eng-Huat Tan, a Singapore-based medical doctor describes a 62-year old man who has used capecitabine to treat his nasopharyngeal cancer. After three years on the drug , the patient decided to visit U. S. relatives last December. But he was stopped by U. S. customs officials for4 hours after entering the country when those officials couldn’t get fingerprints from the man. There were no distinctive swirly marks appearing from his index finger.U. S. customs has been fingerprinting incoming foreign visitors for years, Tan says. Their index fingers are printed and screened against digital files of the fingerprints of bad guys— terrorists and potential criminals that our federal guardians have been tasked with keeping out of the country. Unfortunately, for the Singaporean traveler,one potential side effect of his drug treatment is a smoothing of the tissue on the finger pads. Hence , no fingerprints.“It is uncertain when fingerprint loss will begin to take place in patients who are taking capecitabine,” Tan points out. So he cauti ons any physicians who prescribe the drug to provide their patients with .a doctor’s note pointing out that their medicine may cause fingerprints to disappear.Eventually, the Singapore traveler made it into the United States. I guess the name on his passp ort didn’t raise any red flags. But he,s also now got the explanatory doctor’s note—and won’t leave home without it.By the way, maybe the Food and Drug Administration, which approved use of the drug 11 years ago, should consider updating its list of side effects associated with this medicine. The current list does note that patients may experience vomiting, stomach pain and some other side effects. But no where does it mention the potential for loss of fingerprints.第十四篇Young Adults Who Exercise Get Higher IQ ScoresYoung adults who are fit have a higher IQ and are more likely to go on to university,reveals a major new study carried out at the Sahlgrenska Academy and Sahlgrenska University Hospital.The results were recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). The study involved 1.2 million Swedish men doing military service who were born between 1950 and 1976. The research group analyzed the results of both physical and IQ tests the youngsters took right after they started serving the army.The study shows a clear link between good physical fitness and better results for the IQ test. The strongest links are for logical thinking and verbal comprehension. But it is only fitness that plays a role in the results for the IQ test,and not strength. “Being fit mea ns that you also have good heart and lung capacity and that your brain gets plenty of oxygen,” says Michael Nilsson, professor at the Sahlgrenska Academy and chief physician at the Sahlgrenska University Hospital. “This may be one of the reasons why we can see a clear link with fitness, but not with muscular strength . We are also seeing that there are growth factors that are important. ”By analyzing data for twins, the researchers have been able to determine that it is primarily environmental factors and not genes that explain the link between fitness and a higher IQ.“We have also shown that those youngsters who improve their physical fitness between the ages of 15 and 18 increase their cognitive performance,” says Maria Aberg, researcher at the Sahlgr enska Academy and physician at Aby health centre. “This being the case6, physical education is a subject that has an important place in schools, and is an absolute must if we want to do well in maths and other theoretical subjects.”The researchers have also compared the results from fitness tests during national service with the socio-economic status of the men later in life . Those who were fit at 18 were more likely to go into higher education, and many secured more qualified jobs. SaunaC has various formsB Saunas with smoke.D curing asthmaA pores are cleaned by sweatD All of the above.“Don’t Drink Alone”Gets New MeaningA who drink alcohol outside of mealsurC It increases by 20 percent the possibility of cancer in all sites.A 3 drinks.B Laryngeal cancer.D reduces the risk of laryngeal cancer.Eat to LiveD We have to begin dieting since childhood.B To illustrate the effect of meager food on mice.D They are more likely to suffer from inflammation.A The mice that started dieting in old age.C dieting is not a good method to give us health and long life.。

Owls and Larks(猫头鹰与云雀)1 In this article, we look at the importance of sleep for learning. Most healthy adults need eight or more hours of sleep. But why do we need sleep in the first place? We need sleep for the brain to get a chance to rebuild memories stored during the day and associate these with previously learned things. If this process is interrupted by, say, the sound of an alarm clock, it may not be as effective. So if your sleep is cut short by the alarm clock, how damaging is it? The truth is that it's difficult to predict, as so much depends on how much sleep your body actually needs on that particular occasion.2 The popular belief that people are naturally either larks (early risers) or owls is false. The reason why people tend to be one or the other has more to do with lifestyle, age, and personality. Many people who appear to be early birds may have just become so through habit, for example, parents with very young children. Teenagers can have difficulty falling asleep until late at night and then they naturally have problems getting up the following morning.3 The main reason why owls are owls is that they tend to spend their time over a book, movie, or computer game till the early hours of the morning. They enjoy the quiet of the night when they can pursue their passion. On the other hand, larks can make better use of early morning hours where they can study in quiet at the time when their brains are most refreshed. So which is better for learning-an owl's or a lark's lifestyle? The simple truth is that it is more complex than simply being one or the other. Leading a well-balanced life in terms of work and play and sleeping enough to bring maximum refreshment is probably the secret.4 As for naps, experts on insomnia(失眠)argue against taking naps, as these may keep people up at night. If your nap lasts only five minutes to half an hour and does not affect your ability to fall asleep in the night, it will probably help you be more alert in evening hours. However, if you are having problems getting to sleep at night, it's not only naps that you should avoid. Try not to drink a lot of alcohol, take nicotine(尼古丁), do mentally intense activities like preparing for exams or doing exercise in the evening. Some people swear that drinking coffee never stops them from sleeping like a log, whereas others will never go near the stuff for fear of being awake all night. However, the best advice for most is to avoid it in the evening, and if you drink coffee before a nap, remember you are likely to awaken as soon as the caffeine starts kicking in.23 Paragraph 1 _________24 Paragraph 2 _________25 Paragraph 3 _________26 Paragraph 4 _________A What should we avoid?B How much sleep do we need?C Which is better, being an owl or a lark?D Why do we need sleep?E What makes people owls or larks?F What helps us fall asleep?27 Sleep helps brain to _________.28 Parents with very young children tend to _________29 A good lifestyle means one can _________.30 It is good advice for most people to _________.A sleep enough to bring most refreshmentB keep away from coffee in the eveningC stay up till the early hours of the morningD get up quite earlyE store memories in the brainF rebuild memories stored during the day第4部分:阅读理解(第3l~45题,每题3分,共45分)下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道题。

First,it's possible to livc a normal life with only one kidney.( The remai-ning kidney enlarges to make up most of the difference.) In addition a kidney from a live donor lastsJonger than a kidney taken from someone who has died suddenly. But the biggest change in the pastfew years is that transplant surgeons have started using laparoscopic techniques to remove the donorkidney through a much smaller incision,and this can cut recovery time for the donor from six weeks tofour weeks.Just because you do something, however,it doesn't mean you should. Donating a kidney means undergoing an operation that carries some risk.You could argue that you may be helping to save a life,but you certainly can't pretend that you're better off with one kidney instead of two.So,what are the risks? "As with any major operation, there is a chance of dying,of reoperationdue to bleeding,of infection,of vein clots in the legs or a hernia at the incision,"says Dr. Arthur Ma-tas, director of the renal-transplant program at the university of Minnesota Medical Center in Minneap-olis. Even laparoscopy,a relatively new techriique for kidney donation,is not risk-free. Doctors estimatethat chances of dying from the procedure are about3 in10,000.There's no money to be made; selling an organ is illegal. But the recipient's insurance normally covers your operation and immediate aftercare. Your costs can include hotel bills,lost pay during recovery or possible future disability.Although transplant centers must evaluate any potential donor's suitability,it never hurts to have an independent opinion. The most common contraindications(禁忌征候)are heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure.Never let anyone,not even a close relative,pressure you into giving up an organ-no matter if you're healthy. "There's often the feeling that you're not a good friend, father, mother if you don't dothis," says Arthus Caplan, director of the University of Pennsylvania's center for Bioethics. Sometransplant centers will invent a"medical problem" on behalf of those who are reluctant to donate butfeel they can't say no.16.From1994 t01998 the number of Americans who had donated a kidney reached2419. A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned正确答案:B17.Why the number of kidney donors has risen is that one is better off with one kidney instead oftwo.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned正确答案:B18.There exist risks if a person donates a kidney.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned正确答案:A19.None of the Americans who donates a kidney during the period lasting from1994 to1998 diedfrom the procedure.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned正确答案:C20.Selling organs is illegal, so no one does it in the U.S-A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned正确答案:C21.People with heart disease,diabetes and high pressure are not suitable for kidney donation.
