    15．It's reported that the Great Fire attacked London in the 17th century．The fire started in the very early hours of the day．In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city，where most of the houses were wooden and close together．（36）G
    On Sunday morning the fire started in the house of the King's baker in Pudding Lane．The baker，with his wife and family，was able to get out through a window in the roof．（37）F Then it spread quickly into Thames Street．That was the beginning．
    By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire．On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames．（38）A The fire destroyed many well-known buildings，old St Paul's and the Guildhall among them．
    People threw their things into the river．Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment．（39）E The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire．With nothing left to burn，the fire became weak and finally died out．
    After the fire，the city was expected to be rebuilt with wider streets and fine new houses of stone．（40）BBut more than fifty churches were also rebuilt，among them new St Paul's．
    Although great pain and loss was caused by the fire，after it London was rebuilt as a better place：a city for the future and not just of the past．

    A．Tuesday was the worst day，for more buildings were caught in the fire．
    B．In fact，the streets were still narrow after totally rebuilt．
    C．At last，the streets became much wider．
    D．The family were able to survive the fire after all．
    E．The homeless had to wander in the streets for no shelter to stay．
    F．A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door．
    G．One hundred thousand people became homeless，but only a few lost their lives．

    13．Young people are definitely less courageous （勇敢的） than they were 30 years ago．Why is this？It's because they are spoiled，and take for granted everything that they have or are given．
    Thirty years ago，there wasn't nearly as much blatant （公然的） disrespect for elders，peers，or other people in general．At that time，young people were taught that to get anything or get anywhere in life，they'd have to work for it and earn it．
    If young people aren't being taught the basics of respecting others，and aren't being taught that they need to work to make a living，then where are they to learn courage？
    Courage isn't necessarily about risking your life，for whatever reason．It is about being able to face any kind of hardship，and to make decisions and face the consequences of those decisions．
    Courage means being able to learn from hard times，and to take those lessons with you through life．It means having the resourcefulness （足智多谋） to find ways to deal with your problems yourself，and not being afraid to do so．
    Too many young people now rely on parents，siblings，older relatives and others to get them through life．Too often they turn to these figures whenever they get into trouble，and expect to have their problems solved for them．
    If we are to help our young people become more courageous，we should stop spoiling them，stop doing everything for them，and teach them the skills necessary to make basic life decisions on their own．
    Once these basic principles are instilled （灌输） in our young people，I think we'll find that they are more courageous than we could have dreamed，and more like the young people of thirty years ago than we had ever imagined．
    It's time to go back to older values and ideas，and to bring courage back into our young people and society．
    Theme（66）Comparedwith young people 30 years ago，th ose are less courageous．
    The behavior of young people today      They generally show no（67）respectfor elders and other people．
           They take for granted whatever they have or receive．
          Many of them （68）dependon their parents or other relatives to get them through life．
     
     
     
    （69）Reasons/Causes    		      They are not （70）awareof the basics of respecting others．
           They are not taught to work hard to make a （71）realize/live．
            They don't have the （72）abilityto make wise decisions and overcome difficulties independently．
           They tend to expect others，such as their parents or siblings，to help them out when they are in （73）trouble/difficulty．
     
    Tips    		      Never （74）spoilthem； only help them when necessary．
          Teach them the skills they need to make basic life decisions by themselves．
     
    Conclusion
         		It's time we went back to older values and ideas，and （75）Broughtcourage back into our young people and society．

    5．Something in chocolate could be used to stop coughs and lead to more effective medicines，say UK researchers．
    Their study found that theobromine，found in cocoa，was nearly a third more effective in stopping coughs than codeine，which was considered the best cough medicine at present．
    The Imperial College London researchers who published their results online said the discovery could lead to more effective cough treatment．"While coughing is not necessarily harmful，it can have a major effect on the quality of life，and this discovery could be a huge step forward in treating this problem，"said Professor Peter Barnes．
    Ten healthy volunteers were given theobromine，codeine or placebo，a pill that contains no medicine，during the experiment．Neither the volunteers nor the researchers knew who received which pill．The researchers then measured levels of capsaicin，which is used in research to cause coughing and as a sign of how well the medicine are stopping coughs．
    The team found that，when the volunteers were given theobromine，the capsaicin need to produce a cough was around a third higher than in the placebo group．When they were given codeine they need only slightly higher levels of capsaicin to cause a cough compared with the placebo．
    The researchers said that theobromine worked by keeping down a nerve activity （神经活动），which causes coughing．They also found that unlike some standard cough treatments，theobromine caused no side effects such as sleepiness．
    24．According to Professor Barnes，theobromineD．
    A．cannot be as effective as codeine
    B．can be harmful to people's health
    C．cannot be separated from chocolate
    D．can be a more effective cure for coughs
    25．We learn from the text that volunteers in the experimentB．
    A．were patients with bad coughs
    B．were divided into three groups
    C．received standard treatments
    D．suffered little side effects
    26．Which of the following would be the best title for the text？B
    A．Codeine：A New Medicine
    B．Chocolate May Cure Coughs
    C．Cough Treatment：A Hard Case
    D．Theobromine Can Cause Coughs．
