Look After Your Voice

First gently bite the edges of your tonguewith your teeth. Or, press your entire tongue to the bottom of your mouth and hold it there untilthe salivA．flows. Or you can imagine that you are slicing abig juicy lemon and sucking the juice.

The seconddrink gives you even more confidence. Finally you will feel all-powerful and you will feel you cando everything, but in fact your brain and your mouth do not work together properly. Save the alco-hol until after you finish speaking.

Perhaps you want to accept the advice, Bbut you may wonder if you can ever change the haB．itsof alifetime. Of course you can. Goethe, who lived before indoor skating rinks or swimmingpools, said, "We learn to skate in the summer and swim in the winter". Take this message toheart and give yourself time to develop your new haB．its.

阅读材料，回答题。

Step Back in Time

Do you know that we live a lot longer now than the people who were born before us？ One hundred years ago the average woman lived to be 45. But now， she can live until at least 80.

One of the main reasons for people living longer is that we know how to look after ourselves better. We know which foods are good for us and what we have to eat to make sure our bodies get all the healthy things they need.We know why we sometimes get ill and what to do to get better again. And we know how important it is to do lots of exercise to keep our hearts beating healthily.

But in order that we don"t slip back into bad habits， let"s have a look at what life was like 100 years ago.

Families had between 15 and 20 children， although many babies didn"t live long.Children suffered from lots of diseases， especially tickets （佝偻病） and scurvy （坏血病）， which are both caused by bad diets. This is because many families were very poor and not able to feed their children well.

Really poor families who lived in crowded cities like London and Manchester often slept standing up，bending over a piece of string， because there was no room for them to lie down.

People didn"t have fridges until the 1920s. They kept fresh food cold by storing it on windowsills （窗台板）， blocks of ice， or even burying it in the garden.

Some children had to start work at the age of seven or eight to earn money for their parents. If you had lived 100 years ago， you might well be selling matchsticks （火柴杆）（a job done by many children ） or working with your dad by now.

Deport them or not

In a country that defines itself by ideals，not by shared blood，who should be allowed to come，work and live here？In the wake of the Sept．1 1 attacks these questions have never seemed more pressing．

On Dec．11，2001，as part of the effort to increase homeland security，federal and local authorities in 14 states staged“Operation Safe Travel”-raids on airports to arrest employees with false identification(身份证明)．In Salt Lake City there were 69 arrests．But those captured were anything but terrorists，most of them

illegal immigrants from Central or South America．Authorities said the undocumented workers’illegal status made them open to blackmail(讹诈)by terrorists．

Many immigrants in Salt Lake City were angered by the arrests and said they felt as if they were being treated like disposable goods．

Mayor Anderson said those feelings were justified to a certain extent，“We’re saying we want you to work in these places，we’re going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are，and then when it’s convenient for us，or when we can try to make a point in terms of national security，especially after Sept．1 1，then you’re disposable．There are whole families being uprooted for all of the wrong reasons，”Anderson said．

If Sept．1 1 had never happened．the airport workers would not have been arrested and could have gone oil quietly living in America．probably indefinitely．Ana Castr0，a manager at a Ben＆Jerry’s ice cream shop at the airport，had been workin9 10 years with the same false Social Security card when she was arrested in the December airport raid．Now she and her family are living under the threat of deportation(驱逐出境)．Castro’s case is currently waiting to be settled．While she awaits the outcome，the government has granted her permission to work here and she has returned to her job at Ben&Jerry’s．

阅读材料，回答题：

Late-Night Drinking

Coffee lovers beware. Having aquick" pick-me-up" cup of coffee late in the day will playhavocwith your sleep. As well as being astimulant, caffeine interrupts the flow of melatonin, theB．rain hormone that sends people into asleep.

Melatonin levels normally start to rise about two hours before bedtime. Levels then peak be-tween 2 am and 4 am, before failing again. "It&39;s the neurohormone that controls our sleep tells ourB．ody when to sleep and when to wake, "says Maurice Ohayon of the Stanford Sleep EpidemiologyResearch Center at Stanford University in California. but researchers in Israel have found that caf-feinated coffee halves the body&39;s levels of this sleep hormone.

Lotan Shilo and ateam at the Sapir Medical Center in Tel Aviv University found that six vol-unteers slept less well after acup of caffeinated coffee than after drinking the same amount of de-caf. On average, subjects slept 336 minutes per night after drinking caffeinated coffee, comparedwith 415 minutes after decaf. They also took half an hour to drop off--twice as long as usual--andjigged around in bed twice as much.

In the second phase of the experiment, the researchers woke the volunteers every three hoursand asked them to give aurine sample. Shilo measured concentrations of abreakdown product ofmelatonin. The results suggest that melatonin concentrations in caffeine drinkers were half those indecaf drinkers. In apaper accepted for publication in Sleep Medicine, the researchers suggest thatcaffeine blocks production of the enzyme that drives tnelatonin production.

because it can take many hours to eliminate caffeine from the body, Ohayon recommends thatcoffee lovers switch to decaf after lunch.

The author mentions" pick-me-up" to indicate that__________. 查看材料

A.melatonin levels need to be raised

B.neurohormone can wake us up

C.coffee is astimulant

D.decaf is acaffeinated coffee

根据材料，回答题。

A Ride in a Cable-car

A ride in a cable-car is one of the exciting and enjoyable experiences a child can have. In Switzerland， which is the home of the cabie-car， it is used mostly to take tourists up the slope of a mountain， to a restaurant from which one can have a bird-eye view of the surrounding country， or to a top of a ski-run， from which， in winter， skiers glide down the snow covered the slope on skis. In Singapore， however， the cable-car takes one from the summit of a hill on the main island to a low hill on Sentosa， a resort island just off the southern coast.

The cable-car is really a carriage which hangs from a strong steel cable suspended in the air. It moves along the cable with other cars on pulleys， the wheels of which are turned by electric motors. The cars are painted in eye-~catching colours and spaced at regular intervals. Each car can seat up six persons. After the passengers have entered a car， they are locked in from outside by an attendant， they have no control over the movement of the car.

Before long， the passengers get a breath-taking view through the glass windows of the modern city， the bustling harbour， and the several islands off the coast. The car is suspended so high in the air that slips on the sea look like small boats， and boats like toys. On a clear day， both the sky above and the sea below look beautifully blue.

In contrast to the fast-moving traffic on the ground， the cars in the air move in a leisurely manner， allowing passengers more than enough time to take in the scenery during the brief trip to the island of Sentosa. After a few hours on Sentosa， it will be time again to take a cable-car back to Mount Faber. The return journey is no less exciting than the outward trip.

The Weight Experiment

1NieolaWaiters has been taking part in experiments in Scotland to discover why humans gainand lose weight. being locked in asmall room called a" calorimeter" (热量测量室)is one way tofind out. The signs above the two rooms read simply" Chamber One" and" Chamber Two", theseare the calorimeters: 4m by 2m white-walled rooms where human volunteers are locked up in thename of science. Outside these rooms another sign reads," Please do not enter-work in progress"and in front of the morns advanced machinery registers (记录 ) every move the volunteers make.

Each day, meals measured to the last gram are passed through ahole in the wall of the calorimeterto the resident volunteer.

2NieolaWaiters is one of the twenty volunteers who, over the past eight months, have spent va-rying periods inside the calorimeter. Tall and slim, Nicoladoes not have aweight problem, butthought the strict diet might help her with training and fitness program.aself-employed communi-ty dance worker, she was able to fit the experiment in around her work. She saw an advert(广告)for volunteers at her gym and as she is interested in the whole areaof diet and exercise, shethought she would help out.

3The experiment on Nieolainvolved her spending one day on afixed diet at home and the nextin the room. This sequence(次序) was repeated four times over six weeks. She arrived at the calo-rimeter at 8:30 a. m. on each of the four mornings and from then on everything she ate or drankwas carefully measured. Her every move was noted too, her daily exercise routine timed to the lastsecond. At regular intervals, after eating, she filled in forms about how hungry she felt and sam-ples were taken for analysis.

4The scientists helped volunteers impose(g确立) akind of order on the long days they faced inthe room. "The first time, I only took one video and abook. but it was OK, because I watched TVthe rest of the time," says Nicola. And twice aday she used the exercisebike. She pedaled(踩踏板) for half an hour, watched by researchers to make sure she didn&39;t go too fast.

5It seems that some foods encourage you to eat more, while others satisfy you quickly. Volun-teers are already showing that high-fat diets are less likely to make you feel full. believing thatthey may now know what encourages people to overeat, the researchers are about to start testing ahigh-protein weight-loss diet.

阅读材料，回答题：

Do bring about greater competition

About eight million school-age children are home alone after school. These are the hourswhen the number of violent crimes peaks and when youths are most likely to experiment with alco-hol, tobacco, and drugs. Many older children take care of themselves after school for an hour or twountil aparent comes home, and research suggests that some of these children are more at risk ofpoor grades and risky behaviors.

Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors amongyouths. One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less vio-lence even in poor neighB．orhoods.

After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence because they offer activities tochildren and youths during their out-of-school time. In addition to helping youths make use of af-ter-school hours, after-school programs provide teens with opportunities to develop caring relation-ships with adults. Studies have found that high-quality relationships with parents and other adults,as well as good use of time, are very important for healthy development in youth.

After-school programs can also be used for teens who hang out at friends&39; houses and playb．asketd．all when a parent or other responsible adult is at home. The programs can also be helpfulfor formal after-school activities, including" drop-in" programs that are provided B．y organizations.Despite the benefits of after-school programs, there are many reasons why some parents do notuse them. Programs may be too expensive, of poor quality, or hard to join. Some older children andyoung teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care. Parents may feeluncertain about how much freedom is proper for children and youths who are beyond the tradition-al child care years. However, research supports the effectiveness of these programs in protectingmiddle school and high school youths from risk and harm.

Which of the following is abenefit of after-school programs？查看材料

A.They help to avoid crime and violence during that time

B.They help youths do things on their own during after-school hours

C.They help teens develop caring relationships with classmates

D.They help to reduce risky behaviors among youths

阅读材料，回答题： Adaptation of Living ThingsCertain animals and plants develop character

阅读材料，回答题：

Adaptation of Living Things

Certain animals and plants develop characteristics that help them cope with their environmentbetter than others of their kind. This natural biological process is called adaptation. Among thesuperior characteristics developed through adaptation are those that may help in getting food orshelter, in providing protection, and in producing and protecting the young. That results in the

evolution of more and more organisms（生物体）that are better fitted to their environments.

Each living thing is adapted to its way of life in a general way, but each is adapted especiallyto its own distinct class. A plant, for example, depends upon its roots to fix itself firmly and toabsorb water and inorganic chemicals(无机物). It depends upon its green leaves for using thesun&39;s energy to make food from inorganic chemicals. These are general adaptations, common tomost plants. In addition, there are special adaptations that only certain kinds of plants have.

Many animals have adaptations that help them escape from their enemies. Some are hiddenby their body color or shape, and many look like a leaf or a little branch. The coats of deer arecolored to mix with the surroundings. Many animals have the ability to remain completely stillwhen an enemy is near.

Organisms have a great variety of ways of adapting. They may adapt in their structure, func-tion, and genetics; in their development and production of the young; and in other respects. Anorganism may create its own environment, as do warm-blooded mammals (哺乳动物), whichhave the ability to adjust body heat exactly to maintain their ideal temperature despite changingweather. Usually adaptations are an advantage, but sometimes an organism is so well adapted to a particular environment that if conditions change, it finds it difficult or impossible to readapt to thenew conditions.

Some plants and animals develop superior characteristics so that they may 查看材料

A.help others of their kind get food， shelter and other things needed

B.survive even in extremely severe conditions

C.become better adapted to the environments than others of their kind

阅读材料，回答题。

How does Science Proceed？

How exactly does science work？ How do scientists go about "doing" science？ Ordinarily we think science proceeds in a straightforward way. Ideally, scientists make observations, formulate hypotheses, and test those hypotheses by making further observations. When there is difference between what is observed and what is predicted by the hypothesis, the hypothesis is reviewed. Science proceeds in this way, which is a gradual method of finding the best fit between observation and prediction.

But this idealized version of how one "does" science is naive.Although science demands proof that observations made by one observer be observable by other observers using the same methods.It is by no means clear that even when confronted with identical phenomena different observers will report identical observations.

And it is most certain that, even if the same observations are made, the conclusions as to the meaning of the observations frequently differ.

The fact is that all of us scientists included, see differently. Variations in human perception are well known and have been studied extensively. Distortions in perceptions are frequently seen among observers, even though they may be in identical settings viewing identical phenomena. A documented misperception from history can be found in the experience of Darwin.His ship, Beagle, after anchoring off the Patagonian coast, sent off a landing party in small rowboats. Amazingly, the Patagonian natives watching from shore were blind to the Beagle, but could easily see the tiny rowboats. They have no prior experience of huge sailing ships, but small rowing vessels were an everyday part of their life. Rowboats fit their model of the world but huge ships did not.Their model determined their perceptions.

Our ideas that science proceeds on an utterly objective and straightforward basis ignores the distortions of reality imposed by our own perceptual apparatus. In many cases we see what we have been trained to see, what we are used to seeing. If a subject is fitted with special glasses that are designed to invert the visual field, at first the subject sees everything upside down. After a period of time, as the glasses continue to be worn, a correction is made by our perceptual mechanism and the image is flipped, so that the world once again appears erect.

What is the main idea of the passage？查看材料

A.The research methods used by scientists

B.Observation and human perception variation

C.The relation between hypothesis and observation

D.The human perceptual mechanism

TV Games Shows

One of the most fascinating things about television is the size of the audience. anovel can beon the best sellers list with asale of fewer than 100,000 copies, but apopular TV show might have70 million TV viewers. TV can make anything or anyone well-known overnight.

This is the principle behind quiz or game shows, which put ordinary people on TV to play agame for the prizes and money. aquiz show can make anyone A．star, and it can give away thou-sands of dollars just for fun. but all of this money can create problems. For instance ,in the 1950s,quiz shows were very popular in the US and almost everyone watched them. Charles Van Doren,an English instructor, became rich and famous after winning money on several shows. He even hadA．career asatelevision personality. but one of the losers proved that Charles Van Doren was cheat-ing. It turned out that the show&39;s producers, who were pulling the strings, gave the answers to themost popular contestants beforehanD． Why？ because if the audience didn&39;t like the person whowon the game, they turned the show off. based on his story, amovie under the title Quiz Show is on40 years later.

Charles Van Doren is no longer involved with TV. but game shows are still here,though theyaren&39;t taken as seriously. In fact, some of them try to be as ridiculous as possible. There are showsthat send strangers on vacation trips together, or that try to cause newly-married couples to fight onTV, or that punish losers by humiliating them. The entertainment now is to see what people will dojust to be on TV. People still win money,but the real prize is to be in front of an audience of mil-lions.

阅读材料，回答题。

Satiric Literature

Perhaps the most striking quality of satiric literature is its freshness, its originality of perspective.Satire rarely offers original ideas.Instead, it presents the familiar in a new form.Satirists do not offer the world new philosophies.What they do is look at familiar conditions from a perspective that makes these conditions seem foolish, harmful, or affected.Satire jars us out of complacence into a pleasantly shocked realization that many of the values we unquestioningly accept are false.Don Quixote makes chivalry seem absurd; Brave New World ridicules the pretensions of science; A Modest Proposal dramatizes starvation by advocating cannibalism.None of these ideas is original.Chivalry was suspect before Cervantes, humanists objected to the claims of pure science before Aldoua Huxley, and people were aware of famine before Swirl.It was not the originality of the idea that made these satires popular.It was the manner of expression, the satiric method, that made them interesting and entertaining. Satires are read because they are aesthetically satisfying works of art, not because they are morally wholesome or ethically instructive.They are stimulating and refreshing because with common sense briskness they brush away illusions and second-hand opinions.With spontaneous irreverence, satire rearranges perspectives, scrambles familiar objects into incongruous juxtaposition, and speaks in a personal idiom instead of abstract platitude.

Satire exists because there is need for it.It has lived because readers appreciate a refreshing stimulus,an irreverent reminder that they live in a world of platitudinous thinking, cheap moralizing, and foolish philosophy. Satire serves to prod people into all awareness of truth, though rarely to any active on behalf of truth. Satire tends to remind people that much of what they see, hear, and read in popular media issanctimonious, sentimental, and only partially true.Life resembles in only a slight degree the popular image of it. Soldiers rarely hold die ideals that movies attribute to them, nor do ordinary citizens devote their lives to unselfish service of humanity.Intelligent people know these things but tend to forget them when they do not hear them expressed.

What does the passage mainly discuss？查看材料

A.Difficulties of writing satiric literature

B.Popular topics of satire

C.New philosophies emerging from satiric literature

D.Reasons for the popularity of satire
