A small piece of fish each day may keep the heart doctor away. That's the finding of an extensive study of Dutch men in which deaths from heart disease were more than 50 percent lower among those who consumed at least an ounce of salt water fish per day than those who never ate fish.
The Dutch research is one of three human studies that give strong scientific backing to the long-held belief that eating fish can provide health benefits, particularly to the heart.
Heart disease is the number-one killer in the United States, with more than 550,000 death occurring from heart attacks each year. But researchers previously have noticed that the incidence (发病率) of heart disease is lower in cultures that consume more fish than Americans do. There are fewer heart disease deaths, for example, among the Eskimos of Greenland, who consume about 14 ounces of fish a day, and among the Japanese, whose daily
fish consumption averages more than 3 ounces.
For 20 years, the Dutch study, followed 852 middle-aged men, 20 percent of whom ate no fish. At the start of the study, the average fish consumption was about two-thirds of an ounce each day, with more men eating lean fish (无脂肪鱼) than fatty fish.
During the next two decades, 78 of the men died from heart disease. The fewest deaths were among the group who regularly ate fish, even at levels far lower than those of the Japanese or Eskimos. This relationship was true regardless of other factors such as age, high blood pressure, or blood cholesterol (胆固醇) levels.
61. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. The Dutch research has proved that eating fish can help to prevent heart disease.
B. Heart doctors won't call your house so long as you keep eating fish each day.
C. Among all the diseases heart disease is the most dangerous in America.
D There's a low incidence of heart disease in such countries as Japan and Greenland.
62. The underlined part "this relationship" refers to the connection between_________and the incidence of heart disease.
A. the amount of fish eaten
B. regular fish-eating
C. the kind of fish eaten
D. people of different regions
63. The passage is mainly about
A. the high incidence of heart disease in some countries
B. the effect of fish eating on people's health
C. the changes in people's diet in recent years
D. the daily fish consumption of people in different cultures
64. Why is heart disease the most dangerous killer in the United States?
A. Because American people drink too much spirits.
B. Because there are a great many fat people there.
C. The author doesn't give a definite answer.
D. Because American people eat too much fatty fish.
65. How many lives could probably be saved each year in the United States by eating fish according to the Dutch study?
A.550,000
B.275,000
C.110,000
D.852
C
I was in my third year of teaching creative writing at a high school in New York, when one of my students, 15-year-old Mikey, gave me a note from his mother. It explained his absence from class the day before.
I had seen Mikey himself writing the note at his desk. Most parental-excuse notes I received were penned by my students. If I were to deal with them, I'd be busy 24 hours a day. The forged excuse notes made a large pile, with writing that ranged from imaginative to crazy. The writers of those notes didn't realize that honest excuse notes were usually dull:“Peter was late because the alarm clock didn't go off."
Isn't it remarkable, I thought, how the students complained and said it was hard putting 200 words together on any subject? But when they produced excuse notes, they were brilliant.
So one day I typed out a dozen excuse notes and gave them to my classes. I said,“They're supposed to be written by parents, but actually they are not.True, Mikey?" The students looked at me nervously.
“Now, this will be the first class to study the art of the excuse note- the first class, ever, to practice writing them. You're so lucky to have a teacher like me who has taken your best writing and turned it into a subject worthy of study.”
Everyone smiled as I went on,“You used your imaginations. So try more now. Today I’d like you to write ‘An Excuse Note from Adam to God' or ‘An Excuse Note from Eve to God'.”Heads went down. Pens raced across paper. For the first time ever I saw students so careful in their writing that they had to be asked to go to lunch by their friends.
The next day everyone had excuse notes. Heated discussions followed.The headmaster entered the classroom and walked up and down, looking at papers, and then said, “I'd like you to see me in my office."
When I stepped into his office, he came to shake my hand and said,“I just want to tell you that that lesson, that task, whatever the hell you were doing, was great. Those kids were writing on the college level. Thank you.”
66. What did the author do with the students found dishonest?
A. He reported them to the headmaster.
B. He lectured them hard on honesty.
C. He had them take notes before lunch.
D. He helped improve their writing skills.
67. The underlined word "forged" in the third paragraph means“_________”.
A. former
B. copied
C. false
D. honest
68. The author found that compared with the true excuse notes, the produced ones by the students were usually
A. less imaginative
B. more impressive
C. worse written
D. less convincing
69. The author had the students practice writing excuse notes so the students could learn
A. the importance of being honest
B. how to write excuse notes skillfully
C. the value of creative writing
D. how to be creative in writing
70. What did the headmaster think of the author's way of teaching?
A. Effective.
B. Difficult.
C. Misleading.
D. Reasonable.
D
With child behavior, there is almost much more than it meets the eye. Because it occurs at so many different levels, child behavior that seems simple at one level can often be much more complex and meaningful at another.
For instance, a little child's pattern of getting into cupboards, drawers and closed rooms, even after being told not to, is easily considered as bad behavior. When viewed at that level, the pattern is unacceptable and could lead to punishment. But it can be viewed at a more complex and meaningful level, namely child exploration. If a child regularly experiences an angry parent who seems determined to prevent any exploratory activities, the child will decide to continue to achieve future discoveries. When parents view this behavior as born out of natural curiosity rather than simple opposition, they are more likely to accept and appropriately monitor it. Although it may lead to warning responses to ensure the child's safety, it is less likely to lead to punishment.
There are countless other examples. Holding a goldfish outside its bowl is foolish at one level but also can be seen as a young child's attempt to express physical affection for a pet. Spending time with friends rather than family is selfish at one level but also indicates a teen's need for independence.The point here is that child behavior is often exhibited in simple forms that can appear to be oppositional, selfish or generally unacceptable if viewed only at that
basic level. However,when viewed at more meaningful level, the same apparently simple behavior can be seen as something larger and potentially more adaptive. This doesn't mean the behavior should be ignored, especially if it is inappropriate. But looking at the bigger picture of a child's behavior, adults might gain a fuller understanding of what they're dealing with, which can create more flexibility in how they respond.
71、According to Paragraph I, we can know that child behavior________.
A. is very changeable
B. is inacceptable
C. occurs at different levels
D. is fully understood by adults
72. The example in Paragraph 2 mainly shows that_________.
A. parents should properly punish child behavior
B. parents should keep children's safety in mind
C. children's behavior shows their interests
D. there are different attitudes to child behavior
73. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A. The child will insist on doing things with determination.
B. The child will have to make frequent decisions.
C. The child will make new discoveries in the future.
D. The child will develop a strong sense of achievement.
74. It can be inferred from Paragraph 3 that________.
A. child behavior usually reflects a child's need
B. what a child does can mean differently when seen from different aspects
C. children tend to do something to show their dependence to their parents
D. children spending time with friends show their selfishness
75. What does the writer suggest parents should do with a child's behavior?
A. Have a positive attitude towards it.
B. Ignore the improper behavior.
C. View it at the basic level.
D. Watch over it from head to foot.

VI.阅读表达(共5小题;每题2分;共10分)
Walter was always sitting in the same chair when I came to visit. He would look up and smile when he saw me and pat the chair next to him for me to sit down. He loved to tell me about his lost golden years when he was an excellent baseball player. I was a good listener. After a couple of hours of talking, I would shake his hands and say goodbye to him. I hoped that I brought a little sunshine into Walter' s life.
I met Walter when I was a high school student participating in a volunteer program with elderly people in a nursing home. It was the first of many such activities, ranging from playing with disabled children to sitting with cancer patients in a hospital. These activities seemed to satisfy my desire to be useful and to feel a meaningful connection to the lives of others.
My parents inculcated me with a belief that there was no greater human value than kindness, and encouraged me to make helping others and contributing to society important goals in life. Volunteer work provided a way of attempting to realize the truth of these messages.
I learned that volunteerism is not a one-way act of helping someone less fortunate. Involvement in the life of another person has enriched my life as well. Seeing how people deal with the challenges of their lives has taught me valuable lessons in courage and dignity. Many of the people whom I have met as a volunteer are an unforgettable part of my life. Perhaps I received far more than I ever gave.
This is why volunteerism works—each of us has so much need for human connection and so much to give to others.
91. What did the author do every time he visited Walter? (Within 10 words)
92. What was the first activity the author got involved in as a volunteer? (Within 10 words)
93. What is the meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph3? (1 word)
94. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4? (Within 10 words)
95.If you are to be a volunteer, what will you do? What can you benefit from the volunteer work? (Within 20 words)
