为多余选项。     ●Hi, Carolyn: It"s been a bad time for my husband and me. I haven"t been able to get pregnant since
a miscarriage about a year ago, and many people around me have had babies or are getting pregnant.
  1    I have been looking for another job for months and have been on more interviews than I ever
thought I would get. But I still don"t have a new position.
         2   I know everyone has ups and downs, but I feel like I"ve been down so long, with nothing
changing. How do you continue feeling hopeful when so many things go wrong? I"ve seen a doctor. She
did help, but it still hurts when another friend is pregnant or wait another week with no job offer.          
-Feeling Down
     ●Dear, Feeling down: It will hurt, yes. And if you"ve lost hope, then analyzing the depression is a must.
It"s so personal that it"s hard to make suggestions, but what are you reliably good at, what gives you great pleasure, and what puts smiles on your face?    3   For many it"s just getting to the other side, knowing
you have a favorite book or the person you love waiting for you at the end of the day.
     Personally, being a mom also comes with difficult lows, since all kids struggle with the world and with
their parents. It"s their job. While you say "so many things go wrong," I actually count two in your
letter-losing your baby and your job.  4   But you do have your general health, your talents, your marriage, your friends, your family, and other abilities and interests to move you forward.   5    -Carolyn

     When we say older people shrink, we don"t mean they become tiny enough to fit in your pocket! We
just mean that it"s common for older people to become a little shorter over time. This kind of shrinking
can"t be reversed, although people can slow or stop this process. But why does shrinking happen at all?
    Because of gravity (that force that keeps your feet on the ground) , cushions between the bones in the
spine (脊骨), get compressed (压缩), which makes a person lose a little height and become shorter.
    Another reason why some older people shrink is because of osteoporosis (骨质疏松). Osteoporosis
occurs when bone is broken down and not enough new bone material is made. Over time, bone is said
to be lost because it"s not being replaced. Bones become smaller and weaker and can easily break if
someone with osteoporosis is injured.
     Older people - especially women, who generally have smaller and lighter bones to begin with-are
more likely to develop osteoporosis. As years go by, a person with osteoporosis can get small breaks in
bones that are called compression fractures. These breaks cause collapse of the spine and over time the
person with osteoporosis can become hunched over (驼背).
     Did you know that every day you shrink a little, too? You aren"t as tall at the end of the day as you
are at the beginning. That"s because as the day goes on, water in the disks of the spine gets compressed
due to gravity, making you just a tiny bit shorter. Don"t worry, though. Once you get a good night"s rest,
your body recovers, and the next morning, you"re standing tall again!
     Smoking and drinking alcohol can make this problem worse. Want to do something right now to build
strong bones? I believe what I will say will help you.
1. Which of the following statements is true? 
A. For shrinking, people can do nothing about it.
B. If someone is injured, he will become shorter.
C. Women have smaller and lighter bones than men.
D. We aren"t as tall at the end of the day as we are at the beginning.  
2. What should we do if we don"t want to shrink faster?
A. We should try to reduce gravity.
B. We should be careful not to be hurt by others.
C. We should sleep as long as possible.
D. We should keep away from smoking and drinking alcohol.
3. What is the topic of the passage? 
A. How can we stop shrinking?    
B. Why do we shrink?
C. Some tips on how to keep tall.    
D. How to live a healthy life.
4. About osteoporosis we know that _______.  
A. gravity is one of the causes of osteoporosis
B. once our bone is broken down, osteoporosis will occur
C. women are more likely to develop osteoporosis
D. if we develop osteoporosis, we are more likely to be shorter
5. What will the author talk about in the paragraph to be followed?
A. Tell us how to grow taller.
B. Tell us how to become healthier.
C. Tell us how to avoid being shrinking.
D. Tell us what to do to have strong bones.

     Going on a date can be a nightmare for the best of us. But now a pair of "social X-Ray" glasses
promises to tell you exactly what the other person is thinking-and when you should stop talking.
     The glasses have a built-in camera which monitors the other person"s facial expressions and matches
them up with 24 known features which convey emotions. It will then tell the individual via an earpiece and
lights on the glasses what their date is thinking. In a traffic light-style system, a red light means negative,
yellow means they are a bit interested and green means your date is happy. The glasses are under
development at present by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology"s Media Lab.
     They say that wearing them during a conversation with another person is like having an "extra sense"
that they are bored or losing interest.
     The eyewear was developed for people suffering from autism (孤独症) who have much difficulty
interacting with others, but now the team behind it has seen wider applications. It works thanks to a
camera the size of a grain of rice which is put into the glasses frame and connected via a wire to a small
computer which can be attached to the user"s body. The camera monitors how long and how often 24
"feature points" appear on the subject"s faces which are then analyzed by software developed by the MIT
team.
     This data is then compared with a bank of expressions and the computer tells the wearer what is
going on via the earpiece and the traffic light system.
     So far the glasses are still a job in progress and have been accurate just 64 per cent of the time, a
figure which is expected to improve with further tests.

A. going on a date can be a nightmare for the best of us
B. scientists are showing more and more concern to people suffering from autism
C. the glasses will be more and more popular

2. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

B. The glasses are widely used and have achieved great success.
C. The built-in camera in the glasses is of great importance.

     Australia has passed regulations that will enable more international students to further their education
in the country.    
     The new measures were released by the Australian Department of Tertiary Education, Skills, Jobs
and Workplace Relations in September and will take effect in mid-2012.    
     As a result, the student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified, and the
deposit (押金) required to study in Australia has been reduced. Language requirements for overseas
students have also been eased.    
     Also, overseas students receiving a higher education in Australia will be granted a working visa lasting
from two to four years after graduation, as long as they meet the basic IELTS requirement.    
     "This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning
to study overseas," says Wang Lan, a consultant from Education International Cooperation Group (EIC),
a Beijing-based company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas.    
     However, in the past few years, many of Wang"s student clients (客户) could not start studies in
Australia because they did not meet the language requirements, visa processing took a long time and
deposit regulations were tough. The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to
study in Australia, Wang says.    
     A 22-year-old female student surnamed Li, in Beijing, who is planning to do her  postgraduate studies
in Australia, learned about the policy change several weeks ago.   
     "According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put
down 550,000 yuan ($86,850). Now we only need to prepare 410,000 yuan. This is a relief for my
parents," Li says.
    She also says that the two to four years working visa makes her feel much clearer about her study
plans.    
     "I believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness when I
return to China," she says.    
    Gaining a competitive advantage is the major reason for Chinese students to study abroad, according
to the report by EIC.
1. What"s the main idea of the passage?  
A. Language requirement for overseas students have been eased in Australia.
B. Australia is a most attractive place for students in China.
C. Australia widens window of opportunity for international students.
D. More students will work in Australia after their graduation.
2. Which of the following is NOT the content of the new regulations?  
A. The student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified.
B. The deposit required to study in Australia has been reduced.
C. Language requirements for overseas students have been more difficult.
D. After graduation, some overseas students can get a working visa in Australia.
3. After the new regulations are passed, _______ .   
A. more students will come to Australia to work
B. more Chinese students will choose to live in Australia.
C. the opportunities to work in Australia decrease for overseas students
D. more Chinese students will choose to further their education in Australia
4. How much can Li"s parents save according to the new regulations?  
A. 550,000 yuan
B. 140,000 yuan
C. 410,000 yuan
D. 86,850 yuan
5. Why do many students want to work in Australia after their graduation?   
A. The working experience abroad will strengthen their competitiveness.
B. They can earn more money in Australia.
C. Their working experience can make them stay in Australia forever.
D. They have to do so according to the new regulations.
