Your body, which has close relation with the food you eat, is the most important thing you own. So it needs proper treatment and proper nourishment(营养).
The old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” is not silly as some people think. The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain vitamin C Many people take extra vitamins in the form of pills(药丸), believing that these will make them healthy. But a good diet is made up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesn’t need or use extra vitamins. So why waste money on them?
In the modern western world many people are too busy to care about eating properly. They throw anything into their stomachs, eating hurriedly and carelessly. The list of illness caused or made worse by bad eating habits is frightening.
小题1:The old saying in the passage tells us that_______.| A．the apple is the best among all kinds of fruits. | | B．apple can take the place of doctors. | | C．eating apples regularly (有规律的) does lots of good to our health. | | D．an apple is a sure cure for illness. |
小题2:In the second paragraph the writer tries to let us know______.| A．our bodies need food or we can’t live. | | B．often eating apples is a good habit. | | C．taking extra vitamin pills is completely useless. | | D．a good diet is very important to our health. |
小题3:From the passage we can draw a conclusion that if we want to keep healthy, we should______.| A．only eat an apple a day. | | B．eat properly. | | C．take as many vitamins pills as possible. | | D．throw food into our stomachs slowly and carefully. |

For many years, I had a belief that my suffering was due to my size. I believed that when the weight disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts, and rejections with it.
Many weight－conscious people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything. Perhaps our worst mistake is believing that being thin equals being loved，being special, and being cherished. We fantasize（幻想） about what it will be like when we reach the long－awaited goal. We work very hard to realize this dream. Then, at last, we find ourselves there.
But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, we continue to believe that next time it will be different. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally fulfill its promise of everlasting happiness, self－worth, and, of course, love.
It took me a long while to realize that there was something more for me to learn about beauty. Beauty standards vary with culture. In Samoa a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds. More importantly, if it’s happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us strive hard to change our body, but in vain. We have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves. When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.
小题1:The passage tries to highlight the importance of ________.| A．body size | | B．attitudes toward life | | C．culture difference | | D．different beauty standards |
小题2:What does the word “everything” in paragraph 2 mean?| A．All the problems. | B．All the properties. | | C．The whole world. | D．The absolute truth. |
小题3:What can be inferred about the author?| A．The author is a Samoan. | | B．The author succeeded in losing weight. | | C．The author has been troubled by her/ his weight. | | D．The author probably got wounded in wars or accidents. |
小题4:According to the author, what is the common view of those who have lost some weight first and gained it back later?| A．They feel angry about the regained weight. | | B．They are indifferent to the regained weight. | | C．They feel optimistic(乐观的) about future plans on weight control. | | D．They think they should give up their future plans on weight control. |

I fell in love with Yosemite National Park the first time I saw it, when I was 13. My parents took us there for camping. On the way out, I asked them to wait while I ran up to E1 Capitan, a 16 rock of 3,300 feet straight up. I touched that giant rock and knew 17 I wanted to climb it. That has been my life’s passion (钟爱) ever since 18 the rocks and mountains of Yosemite. I’ve long made Yosemite my 19 .
About 15 years ago I started seeing a lot of 20 , like toilet paper, beer cans, and empty boxes, around the area. It’s 21 me why visitors started respecting the place 22 and treated such a beautiful home-like place this way.
I tried 23 trash(垃圾)myself, but the job was too big. I would 24 an hour or two on the job, only to find the area trashed all over again weeks later. Finally, I got so 25 it that I decided something had to change.
As a rock-climbing guide, I knew 26 about organizing any big event. But in 2004, together with some climbers, I set a date for a 27 . On that day, more than 300 people 28 . Over three days we collected about 6,000 pounds of trash. It was amazing how much we were able to 29 . I couldn’t believe the 30 we made—the park looked clean!
Each year volunteers come for the cleanup from everywhere. In 2007 alone, 2,945 people 31 42,330 pounds of trash.
I often hear people 32 about their surroundings. If you are one of them, I would say the only way to change things is by 33 rather than complaining. We need to teach by 34 . You can’t blame others 35 you start with yourself.

Is there anything more important than health? I don’t think so. “Health is the greatest wealth(财富),” wise people say. You can’t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.
Speaking about health, I can’t help telling you a funny story.
An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease.
He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule: “Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.
A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.
“But you know, doctor,” he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”
小题1:The writer thinks that . | A．health is more important than wealth | | B．work is as important as studies | | C．medicine is more important than pleasure | | D．nothing is more important than money |
小题2:. The doctor usually tells his patient what to do . | A．without examining the patient | | B．after he has examined the patient | | C．if the patient doesn’t take medicine | | D．unless the patient feels pain |
小题3: The underlined part means “ ”. | A．he will be well again | B．he wasn’t a healthy man | | C．he was feeling worse than before | D．he was feeling better than ever |
小题4: From the last sentence of the passage, we learn the man before the doctor told him not to smoke more than one cigarette a day.| A．didn’t smoke | B．has smoked so much | | C．was a heavy smoker | D．began to learn to smoke |

What happens inside the skull of a soccer player who repeatedly heads a soccer ball? That question motivate a challenging new study of the brains of experienced players that has caused discussion and debate among soccer players, and some anxiety among those of us with soccer-playing children.
For the study, researchers at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York selected 34 adults，men and women. All of the volunteers had played soccer since childhood and now competed year-round in adult soccer leagues. Each filled out a detailed questionnaire developed especially for this study to determine how many times they had headed a soccer ball in the previous year, as well as whether they had experienced any known concussions（脑震荡）in the past.
Then the players completed computerized tests of their memory and other learning skills and had their brains scanned, using a complicated new MRI technique which can find structural changes in the brain that can’t be seen during most scans.
According to the data they presented at a Radiological Society of North America meeting last month，the researchers found that the players who had headed the ball more than about 1,100 times in the previous 12 months showed significant loss of white matter in parts of their brains involved with memory，attention and the processing of visual information, compared with players who had headed the ball fewer times.
This pattern of white matter loss is “similar to those seen in traumatic（外伤的）brain injury” , like that after a serious concussion, the researchers reported，even though only one of these players was reported to have ever experienced a conc ussion.
The players who had headed the ball about 1,100 times or more in the past year were also generally worse at recalling lists of words read to them, forgetting or fumbling the words far more often than players who had headed the ball less.
小题1:The passage is most probably a _________________.| A．news report | B．research report | | C．story for soccer players | D．text for doctors |
小题2:From the passage we can conclude that frequent heading may have _________________.| A．significant effect on one’s brain | | B．little effect on one’s brain | | C．nothing to do with the brain injury | | D．one’s memory improved |
小题3:What is likely to be the cause of memory loss?| A．Playing soccer frequently. | B．Tests of their memory. | | C．White matter loss. | D．Information processing. |
小题4:The underlined word "fumbling" is closest in meaning to ________________.| A．remembering | B．misunderstanding | C．recalling | D．missing |
