阅读理解。     Anorexia (厌食) and bulimia (食欲过度) are the names that come to mind when we think of eating
disorders (失调). But there is another eating disorder more common than anorexia and bulimia, and some
experts say it"s becoming a major health problem in America.
     "As soon as I came home, I"d throw down my backpack, open the refrigerator and start eating.
Sandwiches, cookies, candy bars -I"d just eat until I went to bed," says Matt Wymer, 18.
     Matt was a binge (无节制的) eater. According to a new study from Harvard Medical School, 3.5
percent of women and 2 percent of men suffer from this eating disorder.
      "You know we start at a very young age. You fall and someone says, "Oh, here, we"ll go get some ice
cream, and that"ll make it feel better. " Or when you go to the doctor, you get a candy; something bad
happens, "Oh, here"s something that"s comforting,"" says Marilyn Tanner, a doctor.
     Matt looked for comfort because he was always teased (嘲笑) about his weight.
     "There were days when I came and picked him up from school and he got in the car and he started crying
before I asked him anything," says Cathy Wymer, Matt"s mother."I probably gave him whatever he wanted
to try to make him happy, but it was the wrong way of doing it." says Matt"s father.
      "I just felt better after I ate a lot," says Matt.
      Experts say the first line of treatment for binge eaters is to help them find other ways, besides food,
ot feel better."There are about five basic ways. You write, you talk, you cry, you exercise, you laugh.
Laughing also reduces the stress that lots of times people are feeling," says Genie Burnett, Matt"s doctor.
     With the help of his doctor, Matt started a diet and did much sport. He"s lost more than 150 pounds,
he"s healthier and he says he"s more confident. 1. What would be the best title for this passage? A. Matt"s interesting life.
B. Matt"s parents" worries.
C. Eating disorders.
D. Binge eating. 2. From the second paragraph know that Matt ______. A. is very busy at home every day
B. goes to bed very late at night
C. suffers from an eating disorder
D. is not good at his lessons. 3. According to Marilyn Tanner, it is true that ______ .

A. eating disorder begin at an early age
B. ice cream is popular with most children
C. young children fall and hurt their knees easily
D. crying is a good treatment for binge eaters

4. Matt has become more confident by ______. A. talking
B. laughing

     All of us eat every day, but most of us don"t understand the study nutrition(营养).We often make
mistakes in talking about how to keep a good diet.
     For example, many people think that food such as rice, bread, and potatoes will make one fat, this kind
of food is very good for one"s health. It"s good source of many vitamins and it contains less amount of
calories. Some people don"t like frozen vegetables, because they think fresh vegetables cooked at home are
always better. This is wrong again. In fact, whether the vegetables are good or not depends more on how
they prepared. Overcooking, for example, destroys many good qualities of vegetables. Vegetables cooked in
 too much water can lose a deal of vitamins.
     It is also wrong to say that vegetables grown in poor, worn-out soil are lower in vitamins than vegetables
grown in rich soil. The vitamins are in the plants themselves. They don"t come from the soil. However the
minerals(矿物质)in a plant depend on the minerals in the soil.
     In short, there are many wrong ideas about nutrition. We need to correct them.

1. The passage is mainly about ______ .A. nutrition
B. vitamins
C. vegetables
D. health 2. Rice, bread and potatoes are good for people"s health mainly because ______. A. they make people fat
B. there are a lot of vitamins in them
C. they contain more calories
D. they give people more heat 3. Why don"t some people like frozen vegetables? A. They think fresh vegetables contain fewer vitamins
B. They think fresh vegetables contain a lot of vitamins
C. They don"t think the frozen vegetables are flesh
D. They don"t think the frozen vegetables taste as good as the fresh ones. 4. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Many people know almost everything about nutrition.
B. Food such as rice, bread, and potatoes make people fat.
C. The minerals in a plant do not come from the soil
D. Vegetables grown in poor soil may have the same amount of vitamins as those grown in rich. 5. In this passage the writer wants to tell us that ______. A. people should correct wrong ideas about good diet

阅读理解。     As Americans" health and fitness levels continue to decline, many of those in the worst shape are afraid
to go to a "regular" gym to improve their poor health. They somehow feel embarrassed and don"t know how
to begin. For these individuals, boutique gyms that specialize in particular parts of population may be good
choices. These special gyms provide a more personal setting tor those returning to a healthy lifestyle or
starting a fitness program for the first time. Personal training and individualized attention are key features
of these new kinds of gyms.
     Bulldog Fitness, a gym for kids only, is using the latest trend in video games that provide a workout to
engage their young members. Playstation2 Game Bikes, the Treadwall (a rock climbing wall that moves with
you), and DDR Dance Machines are customers" favorites.
     Meanwhile, Irene Pastore of Senior Fit in New York city shows that "age is no excuse for ill-health." Her
boutique gym focuses on the health risks associated with sedentary living. Personal training programs are
designed specifically for seniors depending on their special needs.
     "We feel that people that need the most guidance often don"t know where to turn. If America is going to
change its current health decline, the public and healthcare industry needs to pay more attention to the unique
needs of customers," says Dr. Sal Arria, CEO and founder of the International Sports Science Association
(IS-SA). Dr. Arria claims that those returning to a fitness state should make certain that they choose a trainer
who holds a specialized certification that qualifies them to work with their individual area of need. 1. Why are Americans in the worst shape afraid to go to gym? A. Because they are afraid of the price.

     Rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are a major cause of climate change, and now
a new study has confirmed that atmospheric CO2 is also affecting the ocean chemistry and potentially harming
sea life. 
     Montana State University scientist Robert Dore has been researching the water in the Pacific Ocean
for almost two decades.
     "We"ve been going to the same spot in the Pacific Ocean, and we try and characterize long-term change
in the open ocean environment. And one of the key things that we measure is CO2 levels. And we"ve been
able to record this increasing quantity of atmospheric CO2 into the ocean."
     Scientists expected that as atmospheric CO2 increased, more and more of the carbon dioxide would be
absorbed into the ocean, affecting the chemical balance of the sea water, with a potentially harmful impact
on shellfish and coral in particular.
     "As carbon dioxide dissolves (溶解) in the water, or seawater in this case, it forms a weak acid (酸),
carbonic acid," Dore explains. "And therefore, as the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere goes up and
that exchanges with the surface seawater, it drives the pH down, and makes it more acidic."
     The seawater Dore and his colleagues have analyzed confirms what the theory predicts.
     The effect was particular striking at about 250 meters down, and again at 500 meters. Dore and his
colleagues came up with two possible explanations. It could be that surface water picked up CO2 and then
moved to those depths. Or there could be a biological explanation.
     "It"s important to realize that the oceans are really becoming acidic. And it can have negative impacts on
a whole variety of sea life from fish to coral. It"s potentially catastrophic." 1. What can be the best title of the passage? A. Sea Life Facing Danger
B. Scientist Researching Seawater
C. Oceans Becoming More Acidic
D. Climate Change Affecting Seawater2. Which of the following shows the process of the impact of atmospheric CO2 on sea life?
a. Sea life is endangered.
b. CO2 goes into the surface water.
c. The ocean chemistry is affected.
d. CO2 decreases the pH and makes the seawater more acidic.
e. CO2 levels in the atmosphere go up.A. a→b→c→d→e
B. e→b→c→d→a
C. a→e→c→d→b
D. e→d→c→b→a 3. Scientist Robert Dore came to the conclusion based on _______. A. his research and analysis
B. the expectation of other scientists
C. some former theory
D. a major cause of climate change 4. What does the passage want to tell us most? A. It takes time to make a scientific study.
B. Atmospheric CO2 is doing harm to sea life.
C. Robert Dore is a committed and serious scientist.
D. Measures should be taken to prevent the potential catastrophe.

阅读理解。     Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains,
in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence
on the environment.
     Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside,
but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses (球场) in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal
and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.
     There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today.
You don"t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don"t have to worry about
resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it
will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you
feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control. 
    Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying
products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be"green gyms". They are better
replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports
outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your
membership. And best of all, it"s free. 1. The author thinks the golf is resource-hungry because of the following EXCEPT that _____. A. Golf wastes large areas of countryside
B. Golf runs out of much water
C. Keeping golf court in good condition needs too much energy
D. Golf is bad for people"s health 2. According to the passage, which of the following is an environment-friendly sport? A. swimming in the pool
B. hiking in the hills
C. playing basketball in the gym
D. motor racing in the desert 3. The reason why the author uses power walking as an example mainly is that ______. A. it improves our health
B. it is an outdoor sport
C. it uses fewer resources
D. it is recommended by experts 4. The passage is developed mainly by _____. A. examples and explanation
B. comparison and persuasion
C. facts and descriptions
