ACrossing your legs is an extremely common habit; most people don’t even notice that they’re doing it when they sit down. While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason this happens is because the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart, crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You shouldn’t have your legs crossed for more than 15 minutes, and it’s important that you get up and walk around at least once every hour.Crossing your legs can also lead to neck and back pain. When you sit with your legs crossed your hips are in a twisted position, which can cause one of your pelvic bones to rotate. Since your pelvic bone supports your neck and spine, this can cause pressure on your lower and middle backand neck.You also might notice that when you sit with your legs crossed for long periods of time your feet and legs get tingly or have the feeling of being asleep. This is because when one leg sits on top of the other it causes pressure on the veins and nerves in your legs and feet. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.21.This passage most possibly can be found in ______.A.a science textbookB.a health magazineC.a travel brochureD.a story book22.According to the passage, which of the following sentences is true?A.Most people are aware of the bad influence of crossing the legs.B.Crossing the legs makes it easier for blood to circulate.C.It’s nothing bad for you to cross your legs for half an hour.D.It’s natural for people to cross their legs when they sit down.23.The underlined word “this” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.A.sitting for a long time.B.the gravity of yourselfC.the heart diseaseD.the resistance of blood circulationBMicrosoft has developed a new smartphone app that interprets eye signals and translates them into letters, allowing people with motor neurone disease to communicate with others from a phone.The GazeSpeak app combines a smartphone’s camera with artificial intelligence to recognize eye movements in real time and convert them into letters, words and sentences. For people suffering from ALS(渐冻症), also known as motor neurone disease, eye movement can be the only way they are able to communicate.“Current eye-tracking input systems for people with ALS or other motor impairments are expensive, not robust under sunlight, and require frequent re-calibration(校准)and substantial, relatively immobile setups,”said Xiaoyi Zhang, a researcher at Microsoft who developed the technology. “To mitigate the drawbacks, we created GazeSpeak, an eye-gesture communication system that runs on a smartphone, and is designed to be low-cost, robust, portable and easy to learn.”The app is used by the listener by pointing their smartphone at the speaker. A chart that can be stuck to the back of the smartphone is then used by the speaker to determine which eye movements to make in order to communicate. The sticker shows four grids of letters, which each correspond to a different eye movement. By looking up, down, left or right, the speaker selectswhich grids the letters they want belong to. The artificial intelligence algorithm(算法) is then able to predict the word or sentence they are trying to say.Zhang’s research, Smartphone-Based Gaze Gesture Communication for People with Motor Disabilities, is set to be presented at the Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems in May.24.What is the main idea of this passage?A.People suffering from ALS is difficult to communicate.B.A smartphone app helps ALS sufferers communicate with their eyes.C.The new GazeSpeak app is a big success.D.An eye-gesture communication system is easy to learn.25.What can be implied from the researcher, Xiaoyi Zhang’s words?A.Current eye-tracking input systems are more stable.B.The new GazeSpeak is more inexpensive.C.Current eye-tracking input systems are effortless for people to carry.D.The new eye-gesture system is tough for people to operate.26.What does the underlined word “drawbacks” probably mean?A. mistakesB. difficultiesC. burdenD. shortcomings27. What can we know about this app according to paragraph 4 ?A.The eye movements decide the selection of letters.B.The artificial intelligence can predict words by eyesight.C.ALS sufferers can talk to others by eye-contacting using this app.D.The new app can be run at any kinds of mobile phones.COn the day the tornado hit, there was no indication severe weather was on its way—the sky was blue and the sun had been out. The first alert my husband, Jimmy, 67, and I, 65, got came around 9 p.m., from some scrolling text on the TV Jimmy was watching. He ran upstairs to find me in our third-floor bedroom, and we changed the channel from the presidential primary debate I had been watching to our local Pensacola, Florida, station.No sooner had we found coverage of the tornado than it was on top of us. The bones of the house shook, and the power went out. We had three flights of steps to navigate to get to the relative safety of the first floor. Because the closet down there is wedged(楔入的) underneath a brick staircase, it seemed like the sturdiest place in our town house to wait things out.I didn’t know how or if we would make it down the steps. I gripped the banister and tried to move forward. As we reached the last flight of steps, our front door blew out. Shards of glass that looked like crushed ice flew everywhere. We got close to the staircase landing only to hear the loud ripping sound of our garage door coming off.By the time I reached the closet, the tornado had been over us for about a minute. Jimmy pushed me down to the closet floor, but he couldn’t get inside himself because of the wind. All of a sudden, Jimmy lifted off his feet like people in tornadoes do in the movies. I thought he was gone! And then everything stopped. He landed on his feet. In those first quiet moments, I couldn’t believe it was over. Jimmy said he’d go outside to check. “No,” I said. “Don’t leave me. Don’tleave me.”Our neighbor says the storm lasted four minutes. Of the houses left standing, ours suffered the most damage. Amazingly, none of us were severely injured.28.Why did the author have to move to the first floor?A.Because they have to get out of the house.B.Because the tornado was on the top of them.C.Because the closet there is the safest place.D.Because the bones of house broke.29. According to the passage, which of the following sentences is true?A. This couple got the news of tornado from radio.B. The author thought they can not survive this disaster.C. It took them about one minute to go downstairs.D. The author’s husband was flown to the air because of the wind.30.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. Four minutes, a lifetimeB. How to survive a tornadoC. A destructive disasterD. A lucky couple第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
