阅读理解     Food sometimes gets poisoned with harmful things. A person who eats such food can get an illness
called food poisoning. Food poisoning is usually not serious, but some types are deadly. The symptoms of food poisoning usually begin within hours of eating the poisoned food. Fever is one of the most common
symptoms.
    Certain microorganisms(微生物)cause most types of food poisoning. Bacteria and other
microorganisms can poison eggs ,meat, vegetables, and many other foods. After entering the body, these
tiny living things release(释放) poisons that make people sick.
    Some chemicals can also cause food poisoning. They are often added to food while it is being grown,
processed or prepared. For example, many farmers spray chemicals on crops to kill weeds and insects.
Some people may have a bad reaction to those chemicals when they eat the crops.
    Some plants and animals contain natural poisons that are harmful to people. These include certain kinds of seafood, grains, nuts, seeds, beans, and mushrooms.
    When people handle food properly, the risk of food poisoning is very small. Microorganisms multiply
rapidly in dirty places and in warm temperatures. This means that people should never touch food with
dirty hands or put food on unwashed surfaces. Food should be kept in a refrigerator to stop microorganisms from growing. Meat needs to be cooked thoroughly to kill any dangerous microorganisms. People
should also wash food covered with chemicals before eating it. Finally, people should not eat wild
mushrooms or other foods that grow in the wild. Some of these foods may contain natural materials that
are poisonous to humans. In addition, some types of fish can be poisonous.
     Most people recover from food poisoning after a few days of resting and drinking extra water. If

阅读理解     Compared to adults, children seem to be moving constantly.So it"s no surprise that most parents
who are quizzed about their child"s physical activity level describe their children as fairly active.But a
new study of nearly 2,000 British school children suggests that many parents overestimate the amount
of physical activity their children are really getting.
     The researchers equipped 1,892 British school children, ages 9 and 10, with accelerometers that
measure all physical activity during a given time period.The research, known as the Speedy study
collected the exercise data from children at 92 schools in Norfolk, England, between April and July
2007.
      A child was regarded inactive if he or she recorded less than an hour a day of physical activity.
Although the majority of children studied were getting enough physical activity, a_sizable_minority_of_
children_were_not.Overall,39 percent of girls and 18 percent of boys studied were getting less than
an hour of physical activity each day.
     But if you asked the parents of the inactive children to describe their child"s activity level, the vast
majority-80 percent-described their children as fairly or very physically active, according to the findings
published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine.Interestingly, the children themselves had
more awareness about their lack of physical activity.Overall,40 percent of children overestimated their
physical activity.
     But it wasn"t the parents of overweight children who were most likely to guess wrong about physical
activity levels.The parents who were most out of touch about their child"s physical fitness were more
likely to have children who were slim.Parents of girls were also more likely to overestimate physical
activity.The researchers noted that parents should be educated about the importance of physical activity
for children even if the child is not overweight.
     "Parents of slim children appear to assume that their children are adequately  active, "  the study
authors reported."Increasing awareness regarding health benefits of physical activity beyond weight
control might help have a correct idea of physical activity levels and encourage behavior change."1. According to the Speedy study, what kind of children can be judged physically inactive?A. Slim children.
B. Children with less than an hour a day of physical activity.
C. Overweight children.
D. Children out of touch with their parents for a long time.2. What does the writer probably mean by saying "a sizable minority of children were not" in Paragraph 3?A. The amount of children"s physical activity is far from the writer"s satisfaction.
B. Only a small number of children were not getting enough physical activity.
C. A small number of children didn"t overestimate their physical activity.
D. The minority of children were not studied at all.3. The passage is intended to________.A. encourage parents to fairly judge their children"s physical activity levels
B. persuade parents to keep an eye on their children"s weight
C. urge children to wear accelerometers during exercise
D. advise parents to keep in touch with their children

阅读理解。     You can improve your child"s hearing memory considerably(在很大程度上). Once his
hearing memory has been greatly improved, he"ll be able to use and remember what he listens
to in class. The success of these suggestions depends upon your ability to use your child"s
natural desire to get involved in games he finds simple and fun.

you left out. At the beginning use only simple sentences. Gradually, increase the length of the
sentences. Make sure you don"t rush things along too quickly, or your child may become
discouraged and tired of the game.
     Take your child shopping with you often. He"s to remember a list of items you want to buy
in the supermarket. First , ask him to remember only a few things. Then, as he shows increased
ability to remember, make the list longer and longer. Praise him often and warmly when he
shows increased ability to remember things. He"ll become proud of his "good" memory and
will happily play the game.

     The idea for a science experiment can come from an unusual place.After watching a YouTube
video of a dancing bird named Snowball, a scientist in California decided to study the ability of
animals to keep the beat.
     Bird lovers have long claimed that their pets have rhythm, and there are many videos of dancing
birds online.Until now, scientists have suspected that humans are the only animals that can accurately
keep rhythm with music.
     Thanks to Snowball, that_scientific_opinion is changing.Snowball is a cockatoo, a kind of parrot,
and his favorite song is "Everybody" by the Backstreet Boys.When he hears the song, he moves his
feet and rocks his body with the tempo, or pace of the music, as though he is the only bird member
of the boy band.
     Aniruddh Patel is a neuroscientist, or a scientist who studies how the brain and the nervous system
contribute to learning, seeing and other mental abilities.He works at the Neurosciences Institute in San
 Diego.After seeing Snowball" s dance online, Patel visited the cockatoo at the bird rescue facility he"s
called home for two years.The scientist played "Everybody" for Snowball and also played versions of
the song that were sped up or slowed down.Sometimes, Snowball danced too fast or too slowly.
Often, when there was a change in tempo, Snowball adjusted his dancing to match the rhythm.In other
experiments, scientists have observed the same abilities in preschool children.
     Patel isn"t the only scientist who has studied Snowball"s moves.Adena Schachner, who studies
psychology at Harvard University, also wanted to know more about the dancing bird.Schachner"s
team played different musical pieces for Snowball and a parrot named Alex, as well as eight human
volunteers.The scientists observed that the birds and the humans kept time to the music with about
the same accuracy.
     Schachner and her team watched thousands of YouTube videos of different animals moving to
music.Not all the animals could dance, however.From watching the videos, the scientists observed
that only animals that imitate sounds, including 14 parrot species and Asian elephants, accurately
moved in time to music.


1. The underlined words "that scientific opinion" in the third paragraph refer to the theory that________.A. birds like Snowball have the ability to keep the beat
B. humans are the only animals that can accurately keep rhythm with music
C. the brain and the nervous system contribute to some mental abilities
D. bird pets can have their special rhythm under human"s instruction2. From the fourth paragraph we may know that________.A. Patel is the only scientist who has studied Snowball"s moves.
B. Snowball is able to adjust his dancing to match the rhythm.
C. Snowball cannot dance to the versions of the song Everybody.
D. it is the brain and the nervous system that control the mental abilities.3. The idea of studying animals" ability to keep the beat comes from________.A. bird lovers" discovery  
B. humans" musical sense
C. the same abilities in children  
D. videos of dancing birds
