During the twentieth century there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion (比率,比例) of a woman’s life spent in caring for children . A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties , and would be likely to have seven or eight children . By the time the youngest was fifteen , the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years , during which custom , opportunity and health made it unusual for her to get paid work . Today woman marry younger and have fewer children . Usually a woman’s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty . Even while she has the care of children , her work is lightened by household appliances (家用电器)and convenience foods .This important change in women’s life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic position . Even a fe w years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity , and most of them took a full-time job . However , when they married , they usually left work at once and never returned to it . Today the school-leaving age is sixteen , but many girls stay at school after that age , and though women tend to marry younger , more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born . Very many more afterwards return to full or part-time work . Such changes have led to new relationship in marriage , with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life , and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money , and running the home , according to their abilities and interests of each of them . 56.For women at the beginning of the twentieth century , the amount of time spent taking care of children .A.was shorter than in previous centuries B.was longer than in previous centuriesC.was considered to be surprisingly long D.accounted for a great part of their lives57.When she was over fifty , the late nineteenth century mother .A.would be healthy enough to take paid employmentB.was usually expected to die fairly soonC.would expect to work until she diedD.was unlikely to find a job even if she wanted one58.One reason why today’s mother may take a job is that she .A.is younger when her children are old enough to look after themselvesB.does not like her own childrenC.need not worry about her children’s foodD.likes to share more equally in money with husband59.The new life-pattern reflected in the relationship in marriage is the result of .A.husbands’ finding greater satisfactions of family lifeB.wives’ abilities in running the homeC.women’s imp roved economic positionD.husband and wife fighting for their own interestsBA good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading . It is remarkable first for what it contains : the range of news from local crime to international politics , from sport to business to fashion to science , and the range of comment and special features (特写) as well , from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books , art , theatre and music . A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it : never completely , never straight through , but always by jumping from here to there , in and out glancing at one piece , reading another article all the way through , reading just a few paragraphs of the next . A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers , but for more than any one reader is interested in . What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality (时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now . But immediately can the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient 〔短暂的〕value . For all these reasons , reading newspapers efficiently which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wastingtime , demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading .60.a modern newspaper is remarkable for all the following except its .A.wide coverage B.same styleC.speed in reporting news D.popularity61.According to the passage , the reason why no two people really read the “same〞newspaper is .A.people scan for the news they are interested inB.different people prefer different newspapersC.people have different views about what a good newspaper isD.people are rarely interested in the same kind of news62.It can be concluded from the passage that the newspaper readers .A.apply reading techniques skillfully B.jump from one newspaper to anotherC.appreciate the variety of a newspaper D.usually read a newspaper selectively63.The best title for the passage would be .A.The Importance of Newspaper TopicalityB.The Characteristics of a Good NewspaperC.The Variety of a Good NewspaperD.Some Suggestions on How to Read a NewspaperCMany people will remember the flight of the space shuttle (航天飞机)Challenger , in June , 1993. The achievement of Sally Ride , America’s first woman astronaut to fly into space , made this flight especially memorable . Students from two high schools in Camden , New Jersey , however , are likely to remember Norma rather than Sally whenever they think about the flight .Norma didn’t travel alone . She brought about 100 companions along with her . Norma was an ant , a queen ant who , with her subjects , made up the first ant colony (群体) to travel into space . The ants were part of a science experiment designedby the students to test the effects of weightlessness on insects .The equipment designed by the students for their colony functioned perfectly throughout the long space trip . The young scientists and their teachers were very sad to find that their insect astronauts had all died at some point before the container was returned to the school and opened . The problem did not occur in space , but on the ground after Challenger had landed . The container remained in the desert for nearly a week before the ant colony was removed . The hot , dry desert air dried out the colony’s container and the ants died from lack of moisture (水分).The project was termed a success because it did provide useful information . Students will continue their efforts to find out exactly what went wrong . They will try to prevent the same difficulties from recurring (再发生) on future missions . They don’t want to be discouraged either by the death of the ants or by the $10,000 shuttle fare they will have to pay to send the next colony of ants into space . 64.The story is mainly about .A.Sally Ride’s first ride B.space equipment for insectsC.a space experiment with ants D.going to school in New Jersey65.The project wasn’t a failure because .A.some important things were learned B.dead ants are better C.everything went as expected D.students wrote about it66.The ants died because .A.weightlessness harmed them B.space caused too much painC.no one fed them in space D.they dried out in the desert67.On the next space trip , ants .A.will be sent without people B.should not be left in the desert too long C.will have to pay double fare D.will escape the trip completely 68.What does the underlined word “subjects〞 mean in the text ?A.things talked about B.lessons you study at schoolC.words stated in a sentence D.members ruled by a rulerDOne of the qualities that most people admire in others is the willingness to admitone’s mistakes . It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like “I was wrong about that , and it is even harder to say ,〞 I was wrong , and you were right about that .〞I had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago . He told me he had been the manager of a certain store in the neighbourhood where I grew up , and he asked me if I remembered the egg cartons (in many countries , eggs are sold by the dozen and are put in cartons .) Then he related an incident and I began to remember unclearly the incident he was describing .I was about eight years old at that time . I went into the store with my mother to do some shopping . On that particular day , I must have found my way to the food department where the incident took place .There must have been a special sale on eggs that day because there were lots of eggs in dozen and half-dozen cartons . The cartons were put there or four feet high .I must have stopped in front of the poles of egg cartons . Just then a woman came by pushing her shopping cart and knocked off the cartons . For some reason , I decided it was up to me to put the eggs back together , so I went to work .The manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened .When he appeared , I was on my knees looking at some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs broken , but to him it looked as though I was the one who just did it .He severely reprimanded me and wanted me to pay for any broken eggs . I tried to explain , but it was no good . Even though I quickly forgot all about the incident , it is plain that the manager did not .69.According to the passage, many people will have a good opinion of those who .A.often make mistakes but correct them in no timeB.have never made any mistakesC.admit their mistakesD.forget other people’s mistakes easily .70.Which is the correct order of the following events ?a. I forgot all about the incidentb. I went into the store .c. a woman knocked off the egg cartonsd. I stood in front ofthe egg cartonse. the manager reminded me of the incidentf. the manager didn’tbelieve my explanationg.

Then I 36 my army uniform, while studying the crowd of people 37 their way through Grand Central Station. I was looking for the girl whose heart I knew, but whose 38 I didn’t, the girl with the rose.My interest in her had begun thirteen months 39 in a Florida library. Taking a book off the 40 , I found myself intrigued(着迷的), not with the words of the book, 41 with the notes pencilled in the margin(页边空白). The soft 42 reflected a thoughtful soul and insightful mind. In the front of the 43 , I discovered the previous owner’s 44 , Miss Maynell.With time and 45 I discovered her address. She lived in New York City.

Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably don’t think of it as being a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.When cartoon book characters like the Incredible Hulk get angry, they change colours and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. That’s why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Good, says holding on to anger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression. They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.So it doesn’t matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as deep breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if it’s worth hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else.Forgiveness does not mean that you simply accept what happened and say it’s OK. Instead, it’s a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past.56.The author of the passage tries to make his viewpoint clear .A.by raising his own examplesB.based on his own experienceC.by mentioning some studiesD.by mentioning some typical patients57.The example of the cartoon book characters is taken in the passage to .A.support the viewpoint that anger and hatred harm physical and mental healthB.introduce a famous expertC.let the readers know the different colours of cartoon facesD.show how to control one’s temper58.The underlined phrase “holding on to”in this passage possibly means “”A.removing B.keeping upC.getting rid of D.learning about59.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?A.People who are able to forgive feel less stress.B.People who are able to forgive feel less depression.C.People who are able to forgive have fewer problems on sleeping.D.people who are able to forgive feel less tired.60.The best title for this passage is probably .A.Forgiveness B.Forgiveness Is Good for HealthC.A Secret to Keeping Healthy D.Anger Is Bab for HealthBCanoes were made by felling large trees, letting them sit for three months or so until they were dry, and then burning the insides out of them. This process had to be carefully watched.Early people used dugout canoes. Native men would make a canoe from one tree using no metal edged tools. After felling a great tree, they hollowed it by putting rosin on one side and setting fire to it. The tree was burned in small sections and the resulting ashes were scraped out with shells. And the main body of the canoe was finally made. A large canoe could move quietly along with twenty men in it.Canoes traveled on rivers, lakes and possibly the ocean, providing the most important means of transportation. There were no beasts of burden in NorthAmerica and it is not certain if the Lenape(德拉瓦人)people used their dogs to carry things as some tribes did. What had to be transported was carried on people’s backs or in canoes. Canoes were made from the trunks of trees such as tulip trees, elms, oaks, or chestnuts. In fact, the Lenape name for the tulip tree is muxuhemenshi-“the tree of which canoes are made”. Birch bark canoes were not used in the Lenape homeland because the type of birches growing there is not suitable for canoe making.61.The underlined word “felling” in the first sentence means .A.falling B.growing C.planting D.cutting down 62.Which of the following is NOT included in the process of making a canoe?A.Scraping out the ashes with shells.B.Planting a tree.C.Burning the tree in small sections.D.Felling a great tree.63.According to the first paragraph, we can learn that .A.Cutting trees is very importantB.Letting trees get dry is the last processC.Burning the insides out of the trees had to be carefully watchedD.A large canoe could move quietly along with twenty men in it.64.It can be inferred that the things described in the passage .A.are happening in North America nowB.happened not long agoC.happened long agoD.will happen in the future65.What does the passage mainly discuss about?A.Lenape in North America.B.Tree burning.C.Transportation in North America.D.Canoe making.CAfter the face lift, the forehead tightening and the nose job, something might still show an old person’s age: his voice.For patients who think their trembly, hoarse words don’t match their newly firm face and figure, there’s a procedure that claims to make them sound younger too: the voice lift.There are two general kinds of voice lifts. In some cases, implants are inserted through an incision in the neck to bring the vocal cords(声带)closer together. Doctors also inject fat or other substances(物质)to make the cords bigger so that the voice sounds younger.The voice lift is becoming more widely known among the older people, who have tried to make themselves sound younger.“If I spoke a great deal, or I was shouting on a particular day, at the end of the day I would feel very tired,” said Robert Anzidei, 75, a retired man who had the voice lift several years ago. “I don’t know if I sound younger, but the hoarseness is gone, which is a great improvement.”The voice lift can also benefit people like performers, lawyers, teachers and telephone operators who need to have strong voices and want to take years off the sound of their voices.66.What is the voice lift in this passage?A.A kind of operation to make a patient’s voice sound younger.B.Matching a patient’s voice with his face and figure.C.Raising a patient’s voice.D.Speaking loudly.67.If one has a good voice, we can say that .A.he has implants in his neckB.his vocal cords are big and close togetherC.he has a voice liftD.he has a face lift68.The underlined words “an incisinon” here means “”.A.a sharp cut B.a kind of metalC.a voice D.a tape69.From the last paragraph, we can conclude that .A.people who get old should have voice liftsB.the vocie lift can reduce one’s ageC.performers should have voice liftsD.people who use their voices a lot need strong voices70.What is this passage mainly about?A.That the older one gets, the more possible he will get a trembly voice.B.That people should go and have a voice lift.C.A way to sound younger.D.How a voice lift is done.DThe regular use of text messages and e-mails can lower the IQ more than twice as much as smoking marijuana(大麻). That is the claim of psychologists who have found that tapping away on a mobile phone or computer keypad or checking them for electronic messages temporarily knocks up to ten points off the user’s IQ.This rate of decline in intelligence compares unfavorably with the four-point drop in IQ associated with smoking marijuana, according to British researchers, who have labeled(把……称为)the fleeting phenomenon of enhanced stupidity as “infomania”.The noticeable drop in IQ is believed to be the result of the constant distraction of “always on” technology when employees should be concentrating on what they are paid to do. Infomania means that they lose concentration as their minds remain fixed in an almost permanent state of readiness to react to technology instead of focusing on the tasks in hand.The brain also finds it hard to deal with keeping lots of tasks in motion at once, reducing its overall effectiveness. While modern technology can have hugebenefits, excessive(过度的)use can be damaging not only to a person’s mind, but to his or her social life.Eighty volunteers took part in clinical trials on IQ damage and 1,100 adults were interviewed.More than six in ten people polled admitted that they were addicted to checking their e-mail and text messages so that they examined work-related ones even when at home or on holiday. Half said that they always responded immediately to an e-mail and one in five would interrupt a meeting to do so.Furthermore, infomania is having a negative effect on work colleagues, increasing stress and disagreeing feelings. Nine out of ten polled thought that colleagues who answered e-mails or messages during a face-to-face meeting were extremely rude. Yet one in three Britons believed that it was not only acceptable, but actually diligent and efficient to do so.71.What does the underlined part mean?A.A person’s IQ drops ten points if he or she always checks electronic messages.B.The person who has a higher IQ enjoys checking electronic messages.C.The person who has a lower IQ enjoys checking electronic messages.D.A person’s IQ is ten points higher if he or she always checks electronic messages.72.What happens to people with infmania?A.People with infomania can only concentrate on their tasks in hand.B.people with infomania are addicted to smoking marijuana.C.People with infomania can’t respond to technology immediately.D.People with infomania can’t concentrate on their tasks in hand. 73.From the passage, we can learn that .A.about 550 interviewees responded to an e-mail immediatelyB.about 670 interviewees responded to an e-mail immediatelyC.about 50 taking part in clinical trials on IQ were addicted to checking e-mailsD.about 16 taking part in clinical trials on IQ refused to answer e-mails immediately74.What is the main idea of this passage?A.The regular use of text messages and e-mails can be compared to smoking marijuana.B.Modern technology can damage a person’s mind.C.The regular use of text messages and e-mails can harm your IQ.D.Electronic messages have side effects on the user’s life.75.Which of the following is NOT mentioned?A.Smoking marijuana can lower the IQ.B.The IQ drop caused by electronic obsession(痴迷)is just like a wakeful night.C.About one-third Britons can accept that their colleagues respond to e-mails during a face-to-face meeting.D.Infomania has a bad effect on work colleagues.第二卷(共45分)第四部分写作(共两节,满分45分)第一节阅读表达(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15分)This is the new trend for high school students-spending their summer vacation traveling, learning, sightseeing, and experiencing cultures overseas.◆Choosing programsThere are many different programs from which you can choose. Students may choose an adventure that lasts a week or one that lasts the entire summer vacation.They may choose programs that focus on everything from academic enrichment(充实)to outdoor adventures such as camping, rock climbing,and canoeing. Or they may pick a travel program devoted to sightseeingor daily excursions(短程旅游).◆Picking your best optionBecause short-term summer programs vary so much, it is importantto choose carfully. Even though the stay is for a short time, students and parents should research the program carefully.If you want to gain academic enrichment, check with your high school advisers before leaving. Some programs may include arranging and paying for the transportation abroad and for the excursions. Some do not. It is important to note and what services are included.◆Benefiting from the programsThe academic year program is the experience of studying abroad.Students experience holidays, schools, friends, families, and their day-to-day life all from their host countries. But sometimes it’s a good idea to begin building up to this experience by getting your feet wet first in a short-term adventure abroad.A summer excursion abroad seems to be like a honeymoon. You are not there long enough to fight with your friends or host families. Yet you are able to get a taste of what everyday life might be like.The short experience is planned so that every day is a wonderful adventure. The purpose of these programs is to see as much as possible. You will come back with the new knowledge and appreciation of your world.76.What is the best title of the passage?(Please answer within 10 words.)77.Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?It seems that a short trip abroad in summer is a little like a holiday taken bya newly married couple.78.Please fill in the blank in the fifth paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.(Please answer within 10 words.)79.Do you think it is very helpful to spend summer vacation abroad?Why?(Please answer within 30 words.)80.Translate the underlined sentence in the first paragraph into Chinese.第二节书面表达(满分30分)假如你是学校的播音员,请代表学校用英语广播一则通知,内容如下:1、美国来访教授Smith先生要来学校作报告;2、报告题目:How to use online dictionaries to learn English;3、时间:9月30号下午3点;4、报告地点:学校报告厅;5、参加人员:所有英语教师和对此感兴趣的其他学科教师和学生;6、要求:报告后可提问,希望大家做好准备,不要迟到。

She was born in Senegal, Africa in about 1753 and brought to America at about the age of seven. John and Susannah Wheatlev bought her for three pounds at a slave market in Boston in 1761. Phyllis was soon accepted as one of the family, which included being raised and educated with the Wheatley’s twin 15-year-old children, Mary and Nathaniel. At that time, most females, even from better families, could not read and write, but Mary was probably one of the best educated young women in Boston. Mary wanted to become a teacher, and in fact, it was Mary who decided to take charge of Phvllis’s education. Phyllis soon showed her remarkable talents. At the age of twelve she was reading the Greek and Latin classics.At the age of thirteen, Phyllis wrote her first poem. She became a Boston sensation(引起轰动的人物)after she wrote a poem on the death of the preacher (传教士)George Whitfield in 1770. It became common to read Phyllis Wheatley’s poetty in polite society. Mary had tried to interest publishers in Phyllis’s poems, but once they heard she was a Negro they weren’t interested.Then in 1773 Phyllis went with Nathaniel, who was now a businessman, to London. Thirty nine of her poems were published in London as Poems on Various Subjects. It was the first book published by a black American. In 1775 Phyllis wrote a poem about George Washington and sent it to him. He responded by praising her talents and inviting her to visit his headquarters. After both of her benefactors(恩人)died in 1777 and in 1778, Phyllis was freed. She married in 1778, moved away from Boston, and had three children. But after the unhappy marriage, she moved back to Boston, and died in poverty at the age of thirty.56.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.Phyllis’ poem on a preaher aroused public interest and excitement.B.Phyllis read a lot of books when she was young.C.Those days Negroes were still looked down upon.D.Phyllis wanted to become either a teacher or a businesswoman. 57.Which is the correct order according to the passage?a.US president sang high praise of her.b.Her poem aroused people’s curiosity.c.Mary began to educate her.d.Phyllis was freed as a slave.e.She served Nathaniel all the way to London.A.a, c, e, d, b B.e, c, b, d, a C.c, b, e, a, d D.d, c, e, b, a 58.Which statement about Phyllis is supported by the passage?A.She was poor when she died.B.She wouldn’t have written poetry if she had stayed in Africa.C.She went unrecognized as a poet during her lifetime.D.She only wrote religious poetry.59.What is the passage mainly about?A.Slavery in early America. B.The Wheatley family.C.America’s first black poet. D.The achievements of Phyllis.BOne student skipped class and then sent the professor an e-mail asking for copies of her teaching notes. Another explained that she was late for a Monday class because she was recovering from drinking too much at a wild weekend party.At colleges in the US, e-mail has made it easier to reach professors. But many say it has made them too easy to get in contact, removing boundaries(分界线)that traditionally kept students at a healthy distance.These days, professors say, students seem to view them as available around the clock, sending a steady stream of informal e-mails.“The tone that they take in e-mails is pretty astonishing,”said Michael Kessler, an assistant dean at Georgetown University. “They’ll order you to help:‘I need to know this .’”“There’s a fine balance between meeting their needs and at the same time maintaining a level of legitimacy(合乎情理)as an instructor who is in charge.”Christopher Dede, a professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, said e-mails show how students no longer respect their professors, perhaps because they realize that professors’ expertise(专门知识)could rapidly become outdated.“The respect was driven by the belief that professors were all-knowing sources of deep knowledge,” Dede said, and that belief has weakened.College students say e-mail makes it easier to ask questions and helps them learn. But they seem unaware that what they write in e-mails could have negative effects on them, said Alexandra Lahav, an associate professor of law at the University of Connecticut.She recalled an e-mail message from a student saying that he planned to miss classes, so he could play with his son. Professor Lahav not respond. “Students don’t understand that what they say in e-mails can make them seem unprofessional,” she said.60.The first two examples are used by the author to show that in the US .A.school regulations are not very strictB.Internet is widely used by studentsC.college students usually miss classesD.students feel free to e-mail their professors61.All the tones used in the students’ e-mails are mentioned EXCEPT .A.informal B.serious C.commanding D.surprising 62.It seems that Professor Dede is trying to explain why .A.college students are crazy about e-mailsB.professors are not respected as beforeC.knowledge learned in college becomes outdatedD.students don’t believe in their professors63.We can infer from what Professor Lahav said that .A.some e-mails could result in a bad impressionB.college students are quite serious when writing an e-mailC.studenst know exactly the effects of their e-mailsD.she paid no attention to some of the students’ e-mails.CThe legal limit for driving after drinking alcohol is 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 milliliters of blood, when tested. But there is no sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach this limit. It varies with each person depending on your weight, your sex, if you’ve just eaten and what sort of drinks you’ve had. Some people might reach their limit after only about three standard drinks.In fact, your driving ability can be affected by just one or two drinks Even if you’re below the legal limit, you could still be taken to court if a police officer thinks your driving has been affected by alcohol. It takes about an hour for the body to get rid of the alcohol in one standard drink. So, if you have a heavy drinking session in the evening, you might find that you’re still over the legal limit early in the morning. In addition, if you’ve had a few drinks at lunch time, another one or two drinks in the early evening may well put you over the legallimit.In a test with professional drivers, the more alcoholic drinks they had had, the more certain they were that they could drive a test course through a set of moveable post s…and the less able they were to do it! So the only way to be sure you’re safe is not to drink at all.Alcohol is a major cause of road traffic accidents. One in three of the drivers killed in road accidents have levels of alcohol which are over the legal limit, and road accidents after drinking are the biggest cause of death among young men.It is important to remember that driving after you have been drinking doesn’t just affect you. If you’re involved in an accident, it affects a lot of other people as well, not least the person you might kill or injure.64.The amount of alcohol a person can drink before reaching the legal limit .A.is 80 milligrams of pure alcoholB.is about three standard drinksC.is different for different peopleD.mainly depends on his body weight65.You will be taken to court by the police .A.when you drive a vehicle after drinking alcoholB.when you have had at least three drinksC.only when tests show you have more than enough alcoholD.when the police suspect you are sort of drunk from the way you drive. 66.According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?A.After a few drinks at noon, another one or two drinks late in the afternoon may put you over the legal limit.B.The more alcohol the drivers have, the more likely they are to pass the driving test.C.If you have had a standard drink, you may drive an hour later.D.If you want to drive safely, you had better not drink at all.67.This article urges you to remember that if you drive after drinking .A.you may be taken to court by the policeB.you are putting yourself in dangerC.you may kill or hurt another road-userD.you are putting many other people at riskDPoliticians generally believe that economic growth makes a nation happier.But maybe they’re wrong.An opinion piece from the UK’s Financial Times newspaper last week says “today there is much statistical and laboratory evidence in favor of a new theory: once a country has filled its storerooms, there is no point in that nation becoming richer.”“First, surveys show that the industrialized nations have not become happier over time. UK citizens today report the same degree of psychological well-being with their lives as did their parents and grandparents.”Second, using more formal measures of mental health, rates of depression in countries such as the UK have increased. Third, in the US, even though real income levels have risen, the suicide rate is the same as in the year 1900.“Some scholars have come up with strong evidence about why growth does not work.Relative happiness!“One reason is that humans are creatures of comparison. Happiness levels depend on the earnings levels of a person’s neihbors. It is relative income that matters: when everyone in a society gets wealthier. average well-being stays the same.“A further reason is the fact that experiences wear off. Some researchers believe that after a pay rise people get used to greater income and eventually return to their original happy or unhappy state.“A final reason is that human beings are bad at judging what will make them happy.

The scientists measured the weight, height, and waist size of each participant. Information on the children’s lifestyle was gained through phone interviews their parents.The researchers found that 20% of the boys and 24% of the girls were overweight. Children who slept less than 10 hours a night were 3.5 times more at risk of being overweight than those who slept 12 or more hours. No other factors analyzed (分析)in the study-parental obesity, parents’ level of education, family income, time spent in front of the TV or computer, regular physical activity -had as much of an effect on obesity than time spent sleeping.Hormone(荷尔蒙)production is the researchers’ main point to explain the relationship between sleep and obesity. “Lack of sleep lowers the level of a hormone that stimulates metabolism(促进新陈代谢)and decreases hunger. In addition, short nights of sleep cause the concentration of a hormone that increases hunger,” explains Professor Angelo Tremblay.“It’s ironic that part of the solution to obesity might lie in sleep. According to this study’s results, my best advice against obesity in children would be to encourage them to move more and to make sure they get enough sleep,”concludes Tremblay.72.According to the passage, children’s obesity has nothing to do with .A.whether their parents are overweightB.how long they usually sit in front of the TV or computerC.what kind of education their parents receiveD.the way in which the children sleep73.According to the study, lack of sleep won’t .A.reduce a kind of hormone which can decrease hungerB.gather a kind of hormone which can increase hungerC.make you so sick that you don’t have a good appetite(胃口)D.result in putting on weight more easily74.The reason why the number of obesity nowadays doubled is closely related to A.the lack of physical exercise of the childrenB.the heavy burden shouldered by children on their studiesC.the average night of sleep for children lost one to two hoursD.the development of high-tech in medicine75.What is the main idea of the passage?A.Children who sleep less are more likely to be overweight.B.A research on how overweight progresses.C.A new way to keep a diet.D.How long should the kids sleep?选做题:Something that has to do with 72.Sleeping hours Parental obesityParents’ level of73.Family income Time spent in front of theTV or 74.Lack of regular75.第二卷(共45分)第四部分:写作(共两节,满分45分)第一节阅读表达(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15)Life is so full of questions. So is science.Scientists have had so many great accomplishments and our knowledge about the world has grown a great deal, but there is still a lot that we don’t know yet.USA’s Science magazine is carrying a special report on 125 important unanswered scientific questions. They range from the nature of the universe tothe nature of societies. Some will drive scientific research for a long time until next century, but others . Many will lead to new questions.“The process of trying to figure out what we don’t know just keeps on giving scientists new questions. So, scientists’ job is never done,” said the editor.Below are a few of the most pressing questions:Are we alone in the universe?Alone in all that space? Not likely. The real big question is when, if ever, we’ll have the power to reach out and touch such intelligence. With a bit of luck, it could be in the next 25 years.How much can the human lifespan(寿命)be extended?Lifespan extension in species such as mice has made some scientists believe that humans will hit beyond 100 or 110 years of age. Others say humans’ lifespan may be far more limited.What can replace expensive oil? And when?Whether alternative(替代的)energy sources will be found in time to avoid an energy crisis depends in part on the importance given to energy research. It will require a global political agreement on what science is telling us.76.What is the best title of the passage?
