     阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意问题后的要求)。          Anger and bitterness may affect your health. According to a research,forgiveness may help
you keep healthy,both physically and mentally.
     Forgiveness-giving up anger toward another- can greatly reduce your body"s anger and
stress responses,which affect your mental and physical health. Research conducted by the University
of Michigan"s institute for Social Research has showed that people who for-give themselves and
others experience reduced feelings of restlessness,nervousness and hopelessness. Other researches
have found forgiveness can also lower blood pressure and heart rates.
     "Stress worsens pain,tightens muscles and influences the smooth running of the immune(免疫)
system." says Fred Luskin,director of the Forgiveness Project at Stanford University." People think
they have unlimited storage of anger that will never do harm to their health,but they are quite wrong."
     And good news:You don"t have to be Gandhi to forgive others or ask for forgiveness." Forgiveness
is a teachable skill,which you can learn just like you learn to play the piano." says Luskin.
     Remember these tips when learning to forgive:
     Commit yourself. Do whatever you have to do to feel better. Forgiveness is for you not______.
     Grasp the truth. Recognize that your primary bitterness comes from the hurt feelings and physical
upset you suffer now,not what offended or hurt you 2 minutes or 10 years ago.
     Meet positive goals. Instead of mentally replaying your hurt,seek a new and positive future.
     Live well. remember that a life well lived is the most important. Stop focusing on wounded
feelings-that gives the person who caused your pain power over you. Instead,look for love,beauty
and kindness around you.1. What"s the main idea of the passage? (Please answer within 8 words.)

    "The world"s oceans are slowly getting more acidic．"say scientists．The researchers from California
report that the change is taking place in response to higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
    The lowering of the waters"pH value is not great at the moment but could cause a serious threat to
current ocean life if it continues, they warn. Ken Caldeira and Michael Wickett, from the Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory, report their concerns in the journal Nature.
Increasing use of oil fuels means more carbon dioxide is going into the air, and most of it will eventually be
absorbed by seawater. Once in the water, it reacts to form carbonic acid. Scientists believe that the
oceans have already become slightly more acidic over the last century.
    These researchers have tried to predict what will happen in the future by combining what we know
about the history of the oceans with computer models of climate change．"This level of acidity will get
much more extreme in the future if we continue releasing COZ into the atmosphere," said Dr Caldeira.
"And we predict the amount of future acidity will exceed(超过)anything we have seen over the last
several hundred million years, let alone perhaps after rare disastrous events such as asteroid(小1j-%+)
impacts．"
    However, it is not absolutely clear what that means for ocean life．Most organisms live near the
surface, where the greatest pH change would be expected to occur, but deep-ocean life forms may
be more sensitive to pH changes．Coral reefs and other organisms whose shells contain calcium carbonate(小行星) may be particularly affected if the water"s acidity levels keep going up, the team predict. They
could find it much more difficult to build these structures in water with a lower pH.
    In recent years some people have suggested storing carbon dioxide from power stations in the deep
ocean as a way of dealing with global warming．But Dr Caldeira said that such a strategy should now be
re-considered. "Previously, most experts had looked at ocean absorption of carbon dioxide as a good
thing一because in releasing CO2 into the atmosphere we warm the planet, and when CO2, is absorbed
by the ocean, it reduces the amount of greenhouse warming."

1 ．The ocean is becoming more acidic due to ．

A. the lower water pH value
B．the warming atmosphere
C．the higher level of COZ in the air
D．the increasing use of oil fuels

2． According to Dr Caldeira,                ．  A ．ocean absorption of carbon dioxide is a good thing
B ．more oil fuels will be used in the near future
C ．scientists may predict climate changes with computer models
D ．the future situation of the amount of acidity is extremely serious3．If the water"s acidity level keeps rising,                .  A ．ocean life whose structures contain calcium carbonate may be affected
B ．the waters"pH value will become higher and higher
C ．organisms living near the surface are more sensitive to pH changes
D ．some disastrous events will occur more often than before4．Most experts once believed storing carbon dioxide in the ocean would reduce                ．  A ．the COZ absorbed by the ocean
B ．the amount of greenhouse warming
C ．the acidity of the ocean
D ．the gradul release Of CO25．The purpose of this passage is to                . A ．show people the findings of a research team
B ．inform people of how acid the ocean is now
C ．introduce Dr Caldeira and his team"s research
D ．warn people of the higher level of COZ

阅读理解。      Cancer is feared by everyone. And there is more and more fear about cancer. Not the disease
itself - there is no such thing as a high incidence rates(发病率) of cancer. Except for lung cancer,
mostly caused by cigarette smoking, the incidence rates are not on the rise. However, some kinds
of cancer are decreasing. But the fear of cancer is catching, and the country stands at risk of an
anxiety. The earth itself is coming to seem like a huge carcinogen(致癌物). The ordinary, more or
less, scientific statement that something between 80 and 90 percent of all cancers are due to things
in the environment is taken to mean that none of us will be safe until the whole environment is "cleaned
up." This is not at all the meaning.
     The 80-percent calculation is based on the unthinkable differences in the incidence of cancer in
various societies around the world - for example, the high incidence of liver cancer in Africa and
the Far East, stomach cancer in Japan, breast cancer in Western Europe and North America, and
the relatively low figures for breast cancer in Japan and parts of Africa and for liver cancer in America.
These data show there may be specific environmental influences, but largely based on personal life-style,
which determines the incidence of various forms of cancer in different communities - that is all the
data suggest. The overall incidence of cancer, counting up all the cases, is probable roughly the same
everywhere.1. According to the passage, the incidence of cancer is generally believed _____.A. to be based on inactive life style
B. to be due to anxiety
C. to result from environmental influences
D. to be caused by heavy smoking2. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer"s opinion about the relationship between cancer
    and environment is _____.A. positive
B. negative
C. neutral
D. approving3. According to the passage, the writer seems to feel that _____.A. the risk of catching cancer is on the rise
B. the whole earth is coming to seem like a huge carcinogen
C. the risk of catching cancer isn"t so great as people think
D. cancer can be cured if the environment is cleaned up4. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Cancer and Environment
B. The Fear Caused by Cancers
C. Data on Cancer Incidence
D. Cancer and its Investigation

阅读理解。     What would you think if I told you I could eat 40 percent more food than other peopleeating boxes
of ice cream,bowls of noodles and plates of meatall while losing weight?
     You might hate me,thinking I have one of those annoyingly good metabolisms (新陈代谢) that just
burn up fat the instant it enters my body.You might wonder if I have an intestinal (肠的) worm,or perhaps an eating disorder.Or maybe you"d just shrug your shoulders and figure I have a rich fantasy life.You"d be
wrong.
     For my body to finish such a surprising task,I would have to be a mouse.Not just any mouse,but one
lucky enough to be involved in a new study at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.
     After identifying an enzyme (酶) that allows fat to be stored in the body,scientists fed mice without
those enzymes,and found those mice were able to consume far more food than other miceand still weigh
10 to 15percent less.
     Best of all,the mice that had no enzymes were in very good health,producing baby mice with no
problem and generally acting like any other mouse.That"s great news for obesity researchers,who think
that scientists may figure out a way to prevent the fatmetabolizing (脂肪代谢) enzyme in humans and
control weight
gain.And such a pill would be very exciting for many struggling to get rid of dangerous extra pounds.
     But don"t start planning any big dinner just yet:At this point,of course,any pill for humans is but a
twinkle (闪烁) in the eye of every medicine company"s CEO.More tests are to be made,and eventually
humans will be introduced in the test.
     But for now,unfortunately,control in diet is still key.1.What does "such a surprising task" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Eating a lot of food while losing weight.
B.Burning fat very quickly.
C.Controlling the diet.
D.Having a rich fantasy life.2.Why did the author say he/she had to be a mouse in Paragraph 4?A.Because a mouse can lose weight no matter how much it eats.
B.Because the weightlosing tests were made on the mouse.
C.Because the mouse has a very good metabolism.
D.Because the author wants to try the food without the enzyme.3.What does the author want to show through the last two paragraphs?A.You can be free of guilt when having big dinners.
B.Scientists cannot find the key to identifying the enzyme.
C .Don"t overeat before the test is made on humans.
D.It is unnecessary to control weight at present.

阅读理解。   Are morning people born or made? In my case it was definitely made. In my early 20s, I rarely went to
bed before midnight, and I would almost always get up late the next morning.
   But after a while I couldn"t ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. On those rare
occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity(效率)was almost always higher. So I set out to become a habitual early riser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop
that noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sleep research showed me that I was using the wrong strategy.
   The most common wrong strategy is this: You assume that if you"re going to get up earlier, you"d better
go to bed earlier. It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail.
   There are two main schools (流派) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to bed and
get up at the same time every day. The second school says you should go to bed when you"re tired and get up when you naturally wake up. However, I have found both of them are wrong if you care about productivity. If you sleep at set hours, you"ll sometimes go to bed when you aren"t sleepy enough. You"re wasting
time lying in bed awake and not being asleep.
   If your sleep is based on what your body tells you, you"ll probably be sleeping more thanyou need. Also, your mornings may be less predictable if you"re getting up at different times.
   The solution for me has been to combine both methods. I go to bed when I"m sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time. So I always get up at the same time (in my case 5 am), but I go to bed at different times every night - sometimes at 9:30pm, and other times at midnight. Most of the time I go to bed between 10-11 pm.
   However, going to bed only when I"m sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning is my way. If you want to become an early riser, you can try your own.1. According to the passage, the underlined phrase refers to ________.A. people who stay up until the next morning.
B. people who get up early in the morning.
C. people who feel sleepy in the morning.
D. people whose productivity is the highest in the morning.2. Why did the author want to become a habitual early riser? A. Because he/she wanted to form the habit of going to bed early and getting up early.
B. Because he/she had found that his / her productivity was higher when he/she got up early.
C. Because he/she wanted to see which of the two main schools of thought on sleep patterns was right.
D. Because he/she was told the high relationship between success and rising early.3. The author experienced all the following EXCEPT ________.   A. going to bed after midnight
B. getting up early occasionally
C. pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping
D. asking scholars for advice on sleeping habits4. The passage is mainly about ________. A. how to become an early riser
B. how to have good sleep
C. wrong strategies for getting up early
D. main schools of thought on sleep patterns
