In China,more and more middle school students are getting shorter sleeping time than be-fore. Most students sleep less than nine hours every night,because they have much homework to do. Some homework is given by their teachers,and some by their parents. Also,some students don't know how to save time .They are not careful enough while they do their homework,so it takes them a Iot of time. Some students spend too much time watching TV or playing computer games.They stay up very late. Some students have to get up early every morning on weekdays to get to school on time by bus or by bike.lt can be a long way from home to school.

Exercise Cuts Cancer Deaths in Men

Men who exercise often are less likely to die from cancer than those who_____(51),new research
published in the British Journal of Cancer revealed yesterday.
A team of scientists from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden looked_______(52)the effect of physical
activity and cancer risk in 40,708 men aged________(53)45 and 79._________(79.)
The seven-year study found that men_________(54)walked or cycled for at least 30 minutes a day had
a 34 per cent lower_________(55)of dying from cancer than the men who did less exercise or nothing at all.
__________(56)the period studied,3,714 men developed cancer and 1,153 died from the disease.The
researchers suggest that half an hour's walking_________(57)cycling a day increased survival among these
men by 33 per cent.
The researchers surveyed men from two countries in central Sweden about their lifestyle and the amount
of________(58)activity they were usually doing.They then scored these responses and compared the results
with data on cancer diagnosis and death officially recorded in a central cancer registry(登记簿)over a
seven-year_________(59).Lead author,Professor Alicja Wolk,said,"These results clearly show for the first
time the effect that very simple and basic daily_______(60)such as walking or cycling has in reducing
cancer death risk in middle-aged and elderly________(61)."
Dr Lesley Walker,director of cancer information at Cancer Research UK,said,"This study gives us a
clear indication that men who exercise are less_________(62)to die from cancer,and that they are more
likely to________(63)the disease if they get it. It's not entirely clear from this study what role exercise
plays in preventing________(64)in men,but we do know that a healthy lifestyle can prevent up to half of
all cancers—and_______(65)exercise forms a key part of this."

_________(60)
A:exercise
B:life
C:work
D:style

答案:A
解析:
文章第一句是把运动的男士和不运动的男士做对比,故选B。 "those who don't”即 "those people who don't exercise”。
词组look on意思为“旁观”;look at意思为“看,瞧”,符合句意;B、D两项不与look搭 配,故选C。
单词between表示在两者之间,这里指在45岁和79岁两个年龄阶段之间的调查对象, 故选B。
此空需要填入一个能够引导后面定语从句的引导词。A项的which不能用于指人的定 语从句;B项的whom则只能在定语从句中作宾语;D项的what不能引导定语从句,故选C。
此处是指“死于癌症的风险”,risk符合题意。rush意思为“匆忙”,turn意思为“变化”, fall意思为“跌落”。
上文提及此项研究历时7年,因此下文中实验对象的情况是在这一期间发生的,故 选A。
上文提及散步和骑自行车均能降低死于癌症的可能,因此这里应该指的是散步或骑车 运动能增加抵抗癌症胜利的可能,故选C。
本文探讨的是体育锻炼对癌症的影响,故应选B。
单词rank意思为“阶层,头衔”;list意思为“名单”;age意思为“年龄”;period意思为 “期间,时期”。这里指的是上文说到的7年研究期间,故选D。
由下文“such as walking or cycling”可知,此空应填入和锻炼有关的词,故选A。
由文章题目可知,本文探讨的是运动对男士患癌症的影响,故选B。
由下文“and that they are more likely to”中likely一词的提示可知,此空选C。
由文章内容可知,多锻炼能降低死于癌症的可能,增加挺过癌症煎熬的可能,故应选D。 单词survive在这里的意思为“幸免于,挺过去”
单词trouble意思为“麻烦”;mistake意思为“错误”;accident意思为“事故,意外”,根据 文章大意可知,应选B。
单词random意思为“随机的”;rare意思为“稀有的,稀少的”;rough意思为“艰苦的,粗 糙的”,根据文章大意可知,应选regular(有规律的,定期的)。

Going Her Own Way

When she was twelve,Maria made her first important decision about the course of her life.She decided
that she wanted to continue her education.Most girls from middle-class families chose to stay at home after
primary school,though some attended private Catholic"finishing"schools.There they learned a little about
music,art,needlework,and how to make polite conversation. This was not the sort of education that interested
Maria-or her mother. By this time,she had begun to take her studies more seriously.She read constantly
and brought her books everywhere.One time she even brought her math book to the theater and tried to study
in the dark.
Maria knew that she wanted to go on learning in a serious way.That meant attending the public high
school,something that very few girls did.In Italy at the time,there were two types of high schools:the
"classical"schools and the"technical"schools. In the classical schools,the students followed a very tradi-
tional program of studies,with courses in Latin and Greek language and literature,and Italian literature and
history. The few girls who continued studying after primary school usually chose these schools.
Maria,however,wanted to attend a technical school.The technical schools were more modern than the
classical schools and they offered courses in modern languages,mathematics,science,and accounting. Most
people一including Maria's father一believed that girls would never be able to understand these subjects.
Furthermore,they did not think it was proper for girls to study them.
Maria did not care if it was proper or not.Math and science were the subjects that interested her most.
But before she could sign up for the technical school,she had to win her father's approval. She finally did,
with her mother's help,though for many years after,there was tension in the family. Maria's father continued to
oppose her plans,while her mother helped her.
In 1883,at age thirteen,Maria entered the"Regia Scuola Tecnica Michelangelo Buonarroti"in Rome.
Her experience at this school is difficult for us to imagine.Though the courses included modern subjects,the
teaching methods were very traditional. Learning consisted of memorizing long lists of facts and repeating
them back to the teacher. Students were not supposed to ask questions or think for themselves in any way.
Teachers were very demanding;discipline in the classroom was strict;punishment was severe for those who
failed to achieve or were disobedient.

We can infer from this passage that__________.
A:girls usually attended private primary schools
B:only girls attended classical schools
C:girls did not like going to school
D:Maria was a girl who had very strong will

答案:D
解析:
由文章第三段第一句话“Maria, however, wanted to attend a technical school.”可知答案为C。
由文章第一段第三句话“Most girls from middle-class families chose to stay at home afterprimary school...”可知答案为B
由文章第三段倒数第二句话“Most people including Maria' s father believed that girls would never be able to understand these subjects.”说明玛利亚的父亲对女人所持的是传统观念。
由文章最后一段最后一句话可知,在那时的意大利高中学校中,教师是非常严格的。
文章内容表明,玛利亚意志非常坚定,她冲破传统的束缚,进了她向往的技校。

Computer Literacy

There is no denying that students should learn something about how computers work,just as we expect them at least to understand that the internal-combustion engine(内燃机)has something to do with burning fuel, expanding gases and pistons(活塞)being driven. For people should have some basic idea of how the things that they use do what they do.Further,students might be helped by a course that considers the computer's impact on society. But that is not what is meant by computer literacy. For computer literacy is not a form of literacy(读写能力)。It is a trade skill that should not be taught as a liberal art.
Learning how to use a computer and learning how to program one are two distinct activities. A case might be made that the competent citizens of tomorrow should free themselves from their fear of computers.But this is quite different from saying that all ought to know how to program one. Leave that to people who have chosen programming as a career. While programming can be lots of fun,and while our society needs some people who are experts at it,the same is true of auto repair and violin-making.
Learning how to use a computer is not that difficult,and it gets easier all the time as programs become more"user-friendly".Let us assume that in the future everyone is going to have to know how to use a computer to be a competent citizen.What does the phrase"learning to use a computer" mean? It sounds like"learning to drive a car",that is,it sounds as if there is some set of definite skills that,once acquired,enable one to use a computer.
In fact,"learning to use a computer" is much more like"learning to play a game",but learning the rules of one game may not help you play a second game,whose rules may not be the same. There is no such a thing as teaching someone how to use a computer. One can only teach people to use this or that program.

In the second paragraph"violin-making"is mentioned to show that_______.
A:programming a computer is as interesting as making a violin
B:our society needs experts in different fields
C:violin-making requires as much skill as computer programming
D:people who can use a computer don't necessarily have to know computer programming

答案:D
解析:
题干意思为:要成为未来的称职公民,人们应该怎么做。根据文章第2段,未来的称职公民要学习一些电脑的基本技能,但不必像专业编程人员那样。因此答案C为正确选项。
题干意思为:第二段提到的“小提琴制造”是为了说明什么。举这个例子是为了说明第2段的第一句话,即学习使用电脑和学习如何编程是两件截然不同的事情。因此答案D“人们可以使用电脑并不意味着必须了解电脑编程”为正确答案。
题干意思为:学习如何使用电脑正在变得越来越容易,原因是什么。文章第3段指出Learning how to use a computer is not that difficult , and it gets easier all the time as programs become more " user-friendly",即学习使用电脑不难,并正在变得更加容易,原因是电脑程序正变得“让用户容易使用”,因此可知B为正确选项。
题干意思为:根据作者所述,第三段中“学习使用电脑”是什么意思。这一题的答案在文章的最后一句。即没有教一个人如何使用电脑这回事,一个人只能教别人如何使用这个或那个软件。答案C为学习特定的软件,符合题意。
题干意思为:作者写这篇文章的目的是什么。文章在第一段引出了computer literacy的概念,即“电脑素养”。全篇都是在围绕这个词进行解释。

考题 问答题Practice 2  Private school does not mean better. But it does mean expensive. Public schools in the US are paid for by money from everyone; private schools are not. Parents who send their children to private schools must pay to do so.  Parents may have enough money to pay for private schools. But these schools do not have to accept their children. Most private schools accept only children who are already doing well in school and are able to work quietly, Some take only boys or only girls. Classes are often quieter and less crowded than classes in public schools. This gives children a chance to learn more of what their teachers are trying to teach them.  Public schools do not teach religion. So some parents choose private religious schools for their children. These schools each belong to a church. 6 They give lessons about that religion. They give lessons in all the usual school subjects as well.  Children at many private schools wear special school uniforms, all exactly the same. At public schools, students wear what they want. They often dress in bright colors and tennis shoes. They sometimes invent new and wonderful fashions.正确答案:【参考译文】 私立学校并不一定比公立学校好,但上私立学校肯定比上公立学校贵。公立学校的办学经费用的是每一个公民纳税的钱,而私立学校却不是这样。家长如果想把自己的孩子送到私立学校去念书,他们就得自己付钱。 即使家长有钱付学费,私立学校也不一定非得把孩子收下来。大部分的私立学校一般都只收学习成绩较好而又遵守纪律的学生。有的私立学校只收男生,而有的私立学校又只收女生。与公立学校相比,私立学校每个班的人数要少些,学生也能遵守课堂纪律。这样,学生在学校里就能学到更多的知识。 公立学校不设宗教课程。所以,有些家长就把自己的孩子送到私立的教会学校去上学。这类教会学校一般都属于某个教派,在学校里,他们就给学生上自己教派的宗教课程。当然,其他学校教的所有的课程,教会学校也都得教。 许多私立学校的学生都得穿式样统一的校服。在公立学校,学生爱穿什么就可穿什么。他们往往穿着艳丽的衣服和网球鞋;有时,学生们也会搞些新花样,很快就成为流行的时装。解析:暂无解析

考题 问答题Practice 2  The laptop computer is a small, portable computer that’s light and small enough to hold on your lap. It is smaller than a luggage but larger than a notebook computer. A laptop usually weighs between 8 and 14 pounds, and when folded shut is about the size of a small briefcase. Laptops can be plugged in or run on batteries, although the batteries must be recharged every few hours. Laptop computers use a thin, light weight display screen called a flat-panel display, rather than the cathode ray tube technology of larger personal computers. Laptop displays vary widely in quality. Typically, their display screens show fewer lines than displays on larger computers and can be difficult to read in bright light. Laptops are self-contained units, having their own CPUs, memory, and disk drives. While more expensive than a desktop computer with equivalent computing power, a laptop can be ideal for the on-the-go user who needs a second, portable computer. Laptops aren’t always a suitable replacement for desktop computer, since they can’t be expanded or modified easily should your computing needs change. Also, the display is inferior to standard video graphics array(VGA)displays, although active matrix displays compete well except for size.正确答案:【参考译文】 膝上型计算机是一种小型便携式计算机,重量轻,机型小,可以放在膝上使用。其形状比行李箱小,但比笔记本电脑大,重量一般在8到14磅左右,折叠起来和小号公文包差不多大小。可以插电源也可以使用电池运行,电池每隔几个小时就必须充电。这类计算机不像较大型的个人电脑那样采用阴极射线管技术,而是采用一种名叫平板显示器的薄型轻质显示屏。膝上型计算机显示器的质量良莠不一。一般而言,其显示屏显示的行数比大型个人计算机少,且在强光下很难看清。膝上型电脑机型虽小然而五脏俱全,拥有自己的中央处理器、内存和光驱。尽管膝上型计算机比功能相当的台式机贵很多,然而对于经常到处奔波而另外需要一台便携式计算机的人来说这种计算机还是很理想的选择。如果用户使用计算机处理信息的需求发生变化,膝上型计算机很难相应地扩大容量或做出其他调整,因此有时用这类计算机来取代台式机也不太合适。而且,虽然膝上型计算机的活性矩阵显示器的屏幕大小可以与影像列阵显示器相媲美,但是总的来说,膝上型计算机的显示器不如标准的影像列阵显示器好。解析:暂无解析

The University of Bristol study,published in Pediatrics,involved more than 1,000 children aged about 10.They also had the kids fill out questionnaires designed to gauge the kids' emotional well-being and behavior.The questionnaires contained 20 questions covering five sections-emotional difficulties,conduct problems,hyperactivity or inattention,friendships and peer groups and problems relating to friends and peer groups.The study found no direct evidence that sitting in front of a screen actually causes mental health problems. Instead,it suggests that children with difficulties,such as extreme shyness,are more likely to choose TV or computer games than sociable activities. In the study,children were asked whether they agreed,disagreed or somewhat agree with a list of statements,including,"I generally play alone or keep to myself" and,"I am often unhappy or tearful".They were also asked how much exercise they took and how long they spent at a TV or computer screen.According to the study,children who spent more than two hours a day at a screen had a 60% higher risk of mental problems than children who spent fewer viewing hours. The risk was only slightly higher in children who did little or no exercise."Physical activity is good for health in many ways,but it can't make up for long hours of screen viewing. Parents should consider limiting their children's screen viewing to no more than 2 hours a day,”said the study organizer,Angie Page.Previous studies have raised concerns that watching too much television can affect children's behavior in later life. A Canadian study found that those who watched most TV as young children performed worse at school, ate more junk food and had more trouble concentrating.Which of the children behavior below leads to the highest risk of the mental problems, according to the University of Bristol study?A Playing computer every day.B Watching TV 3 hours per day.C Doing few physical activities.D Owning few friends.正确答案:A解析:
