    An allergy (过敏反应) is a strong reaction to a substance. Many things can cause
allergies. The most common cause is pollen (花粉), which is usually produced by trees in
the spring, grasses in the summer and weeds in the fall, as part of their reproductive
process.
    Other causes include organisms, chemicals, plants and dead skin particles (微粒) from
dogs and cats can also cause allergic reactions. So can insect stings and some food.
    The most common kind of allergic reactions is itchy (痒的), watery eyes and a blocked
or watery nose. Allergies can also cause red, itchy skin. Some reactions can be life-
threatening, for example, when breathing passages become blocked.
    It is not always easy to avoid allergies. Drugs may offer an effective treatment.
Another treatment used in some cases is called immunotherapy (免疫疗法). A patient is
injected with small amounts of the allergy-causing substance. The idea is that larger and
larger amounts are given over time until the patient develops a resistance in his body.
    In the United States, experts estimate that up to 8% of young children have food
allergies. Every year these allergies cause about 30,000 cases with severe reactions that
require immediate treatment. It can result in breathing trouble and in some cases death.
It is said that about 100 to 200 people will die. It says most of the reactions are caused
by peanuts and tree nuts like walnuts.
    People can also be allergic to medicines. The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and
Immunology says about 10% of bad reactions to commonly used medicines are allergic. In
other words, a person"s immune system overreacts and produces an allergic reaction. The
most common reactions include skin rashes (皮疹), itching, breathing problems and swelling
in areas such as the face.
1. Allergies seldom occur in winter because _____.
[     ]
A. plants don"t flower in cold weather
B. people usually wear thick clothes

[     ]
A. It is nothing serious.
B. One"s life is at risk.
C. One has to be sent to hospital.
D. One is sure to breathe easily.
3. According to immunotherapy, the patient is supposed to _____.
[     ]
A. take some medicines to produce antibodies
B. have immediate operations
C. be given the allergy-causing substance until he develops a resistance
D. be exposed to enough allergy-causing substances
4. The best title would be "_____".
[     ]
A. The ABCs of Allergies

    Living in a green area can make you live longer, according to research published
today. The research also shows that the difference in life expectancy (预期寿命)
between rich and poor becomes smaller among those who live in an environment
with parks and trees.
    Richard Mitchell, from Glasgow University, and his colleagues, found that the gap
between the number of deaths of people on high incomes and the number of deaths
of those on low incomes in green areas was half that compared with figures relating
to built-up areas.
    Green spaces, classified by the researchers as "open, undeveloped land with natural
vegetation", encouraged people to walk and be more active. Exercise in these settings
could have greater benefits than exercise elsewhere, the researchers said.
    The benefits potentially go beyond exercise. Studies have shown that being around
green spaces can reduce blood pressure and stress levels, and possibly help patients
recover faster.
    A number of researchers have looked at the effects of greenery on our well-being.
But few studies had looked at whether living in green areas reduced health inequalities,
the Glasgow team said.
    Using information from a land-use database of 2001, the researchers divided the
pre-retirement population of England into four groups according to income level, and
five groups according to access to green space. They then looked at death rate for
2001~2005. They found that the inequality in death rate from all causes relating to lack
of money was less in those populations in the greenest areas compared with the figures
for people living in more built-up places.
    They found an even stronger relationship when it came to deaths from certain diseases
such as heart conditions and stroke (中风). There was no difference, however, in deaths
from lung cancer.
    The researchers said that changing the physical environment was an easier way to fight
against poor health than using media campaigns or giving out information on health. "The
result of the study is clear: Environments that promote good health might be very important
in the fight to reduce health inequalities."
1. The underlined word "that" in Paragraph 2 refers to _____.
[     ]
A. the gap
B. the number of deaths
C. the income
D. the living area
2. What was the special point of the Glasgow team"s research?
[     ]
A. They offered a scientific definition of "green spaces".
B. They encouraged people to exercise in green areas.
C. They studied the effects of greenery on people"s health.
D. They focused on the influence of greenery on health inequalities.
3. What advice would the researchers probably give according to the last paragraph?
[     ]
A. More health information should be given to the public.
B. People should take more exercise every day.
C. More trees and grass should be planted in cities.
D. People should help to fight against health problems.
4. What is the main idea of the passage?
[     ]
A. People should live in green areas.
B. Green spaces promote good health.
C. Income influences health less than environment.
D. Exercise in green areas benefits people a lot.

     One day last September, as Britney Spears was about to board a flight to Los Angeles from London, a blue
bottle fell out of her purse. She quickly put it back in, but not before the camera recorded the event. Neither
Spears nor her spokesman was willing to comment on the contents of the bottle, but the next morning London"s
Daily Express published a page of pictures under the headline "EXCLUSIVE: POP PRINCESS SPOTTED AT
AIRPORT WITH POT OF SLIMMING TABLETS. " Spears was apparently carrying Zantrex-3, one of the
most popular weight-loss pills now sold in the United States. The pill, which is sold at about fifty dollars for
a month"s supply, contains a huge amount of caffeine, some green tea, and three common South American
herbs that also act as stimulants (兴奋剂). It hit the U.S. market last March and has had a success that would
be hard to overstate
. Millions of bottles have been sold, and during the Christmas season it was displayed in the
windows of the nation"s largest chain of vitamin shops, G.N.C. (It is so highly sought after that many of the
stores keep it in locked counters.) Zantrex-3 is also sold at CVS, Rite Aid, Wal-Mart, and other chains, and over
the telephone and on the Internet. If you type "Zantrex" into Google, more than a hundred thousand pieces of
information about it will appear. At any moment, there are scores of people sell it on eBay.
     Perhaps the most interesting thing about the success story of Zantrex-3, however, is that it is far from
unique.There are hundreds of similar products on the market today, and they are bought by millions of
Americans. And though Zantrex"s producer makes some exciting statements ("the most advanced weight
control compound (化合物) period"), so do the people who sell Stacker 2 and Anorex along with those who
sell Carb Eliminator and Fat Eliminator. Almost all of these compounds suggest that they can help people lose
weight and regain lost energy, and often without diet, exercise, or any other effort.
1. Britney Spears is a / an _____.
[     ]
A. dancer
B. singer
C. athlete
D. chemist
2. Which of the following is also a kind of weight-loss pill?
[     ]
A. CVS
B. Rite Aid
C. Wal-Mart
D. Anorex
3. The underlined part of the sentence in the first paragraph is most likely similar in meaning to _____.
[     ]
A. it is difficult to say how successful Zantrex-3 is
B. you can"t overstate the success of Zantrex-3
C. you can"t think too highly of the success of Zantrex-3
D. Zantrex-3 is not very successful
4. From the second paragraph we know that _____.
[     ]
A. Zantrex-3 is one of the successful weight-loss pills on the US market
B. Zantrex-3 is the most successful weight-loss pills on the US market
C. Zantrex-3 is the only weight-loss pill on the US market
D. there are five kinds of weight-loss pills on the US market
5. The text mainly tells us _____.
[     ]
A. when Britney Spears was found taking weight-loss pills with her
B. how Zantrex-3 became successful in the USA
C. weight-loss pills are very popular in the USA
D. Zantrex-3 is forbidden to be sold on the US market

     Before 1900, many theories existed as to the cause of yellow fever (黄热病). Some doctors were sure the
disease was air-born; others felt that it was spread from person to person. Dr. Carlos Finlay, a well-known
Cuban doctor of that time, had long held the theory that it was caused by the bite of mosquitoes (蚊子). But
neither the pubic nor the doctors then accepted his idea.
     Despite this, Walter Reed, an American doctor sent to study yellow fever in Cuba, went to talk with Finlay.
Reed, after reading a lot on the subject, had begun to think that Dr. Finlay might be right. Then Reed and his
comrades set to work at once. Outside Havana, they set up a laboratory and began experiments to test the
theory. The experiments were successful. Now we know: A period of about two weeks must pass before a
mosquito, after feeding on a sick person, could infect another person. The sick person had to have yellow
fever a certain number of days before the mosquito biting him was able to carry the disease.
