    Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations．They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago． 小题1:  
    The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly．Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses．  小题2:  So they are called "diseases of civilization"．Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.
    Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none． 小题3:  However, a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.
    Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic ones．They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits．They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains．小题4:  We eat six times more salt than our ancestors．We eat more sugar．We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.
      小题5: But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.         
    A．Stone Age people lived a simple life.
    B．But today, we enjoy eating a lot of these.
    C．In that case, they would live much healthier.
    D．Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.
    E．These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.
    F．People today probably don't want to live like our ancestors.
    G．Modern people used to suffer from "diseases of civilization".

    小题1:C
    小题2:E
    小题3:D
    小题4:B
    小题5:F

    小题1:根据前文人们应该吃1万年前人们吃的东西，在那种情况下，人们将活得更为健康。
    小题2:根据前面提及的this had led to new kinds of sicknesses。以及后面的they are called "diseases of civilization"．可知E符合。
    小题3:根据前文enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none．可知古代人不抽烟喝酒，接下来应该说古代人还经常锻炼。
    小题4:根据前面三句话可知古代人有很多好的习惯，而现代人恰恰相反。
    小题5:根据后半句But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.可知现代人不想像古代人那样生活。

    (1)The half-empty coffee cups, still standing next to their plates, tell of a morning like others. And yet, that grey covering of dust that everything wears tells a different story: it tells of screams, tears, confusion, terror and blood.
    (2)Now the restaurant in the World Trade Center will never again serve breakfast. And never again will all those people go there to eat or work --- those people of America whose faces have entered our hearts. So many people whose faces we associate with life and liveliness _______ tonight. So many words remain unsaid, and so much happiness has been destroyed. In their places are tear-stained faces. My generation has seen this. On Monday, a fight with my sister and a bad grade seemed to be the biggest problems in the world. Tonight, so many people across the country know that America’s pain is at its worst ever. We have read about World War II, and we have seen the black-and-white pictures. But to most students, that’s an event on a textbook page that would never happen today.
    (3) After all, this was a time of peace and wealth --- the United States was powerful and successful. There would be no more wars, and we were lucky to live in such a time. But when those planes hit; when firefighters with terror on their faces ran among the parts of the buildings that had fallen; when people screamed for their family members; when history was unfolding before our eyes, in full, clear colour ---- then we knew the world had been changed.
    (4) Everything that had happened in the past seemed to take on new life through September 11, 2001. And when they say this is the worst wound in American soil, I say, I thought this place was an empire. And I say, I thought this was a time of peace. And I say, I thought we were safe.
    (5) Knowing how many human beings turned to ashes in a second, and seeing some jumps from the buildings, I know that my generation is growing up in a world where mankind can still be evil. But seeing those heroes risk lives among the castle-like ruins, and seeing the eager blood donors at the hospitals, my generation has learned that tears are allowed, that mankind can also be beautiful, and that the ghost of evil will never defeat the spirit of good.

    [1]Everybody is familiar with Christmas music； its played everywhere. Whether it's the music from a grocery store or random(随机的）songs on the radio， holiday music remains to flood in the air from the day after Thanksgiving to the beginning of December. Christmas music gets extremely over- played through the Holiday season. “'I think the common seasonal Christmas music is annoying because it keeps being played over and over.”said junior Devin McFarland.
    [2]The Christmas music still played today is what she heard in her childhood. Some famous Christmas songs have never been changed. The original music is played so much that in some cases people dream about or even sing Christmas music__________. She wishes that there was a wider variety of songs. She likes the newer Christmas songs that bands either re- make or write themselves. "They have a fresher sound to Christmas songs, and they add their own characteristics to them so that they are more like their own songs. ” McFarland explained.
    [3]Christmas is known as a happy and homecoming festival, so the holiday season is meant to be spent happily with your family. It is recognized that the music media wants to get the point across and add to the festival atmosphere. But isn't the music being pushed to the public too much?
    [4]Most grocery stores play the music non-stop ，Christmas song after Christmas song， disgusting the customers who don't like that kind of music. You can walk through stores and attempt turning off the music, but sometimes it's impossible to do so. On the other hand, almost everyone has witnessed random persons walking along happily and either singing or whistling to the tune of the song that's played throughout the store.

    阅读下列材料，从所给的六个选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中选出符合各段落大意的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。
    A. Mothers and Fathers Play Differently
    B. Mothers and Fathers Parent Differently
    C. Mothers and Fathers Solve Problems Differently
    D. Mothers and Fathers regulate Differently
    E. Mothers and Fathers Communicate Differently
    F. Fathers Push Limits; Mothers Encourage Security
    The following are some of the most compelling ways mother and father involvement make a positive
    difference in a child’s life. Children need mom’s softness as well as dad’s roughhousing.
    小题1:________  This difference provides an important diversity of experiences for children. Stanford psychologist Eleanor Maccoby explains mothers and fathers respond differently to infants. Mothers are more likely to provide warm, nurturing care for a crying infant. This diversity in itself provides children with a broader, richer experience of contrasting relational interactions—more so than for children who are raised by only one gender. Whether they realize it or not, children are learning at earliest age that men and women are different and have different ways of dealing with life, other adults and their children.
    小题2:________  While both mothers and fathers are physical, fathers are physical in different ways. Fathers tickle more, they wrestle, and throw their children in the air. Fathers chase their children sometimes as playful, scary “monsters”. Mothers cuddle babies, and fathers bounce them. Fathers roughhouse while mothers are gentle. One style encourages independence while the other security. One study found 70 percent of father-infant games were more physical and action oriented while only 4 percent of mother-infant ones were like this.
    小题3:________  Go to any playground and listen to the parents. Who is encouraging their kids to swing or climb just a little higher, ride their bike just a little faster, throw just a little harder? Who is yelling, “slow down, not so high, not so hard!” Of course, fathers encourage children to take chances and mothers protect and are more cautious. This difference can cause disagreements between mom and dad on what is best for the child. Either of these guiding styles by themselves can be unhealthy. Joined together, they keep each other in balance and help children remain safe while expanding their experiences and confidence.
    小题4:________  A major study showed that when speaking to children, mothers and fathers are different. What fathers express tends to be more brief, directive, and to the point. It also makes greater use of subtle body language and facial expressions. Mothers tend to be more descriptive, personal and verbally encouraging. Children who do not have daily exposure to both will not learn how to understand and use both styles of conversation as they grow. These boys and girls will be at a disadvantage because they will experience these different ways of exchanging ideas in relationships with teachers, bosses and other authority figures.
    小题5:________  As a famous saying goes, nothingcanbeaccomplishedwithoutregulationsorstandards. Fathers stress justice fairness and duty (based on rules), while mothers emphasize sympathy, care and help (based on relationship). Fathers tend to observe and enforce rules systematically and sternly, which teach children the objectivity and consequences of right and wrong. Mothers tend toward grace and sympathy in the midst of disobedience, which provides a sense of hopefulness. Either of these by themselves is not good, but if together, they create a healthy, proper balance.

    Oh, the things that I should see if I had the power of sight for just three days!
    The first day would be a busy one. I should call to me all my dear friends and look long into their faces, imprinting(铭记) upon my mind the outward evidences of the beauty that is within them, I should let my eyes rest, too, on the face of a baby, so that I could catch a vision of the eager, innocent beauty which precedes the individual's consciousness of the conflicts which life develops.
    And I should like to look into the loyal, trusting eyes of my dogs--the serious, clever little Scottie, Darkie, and the strong, understanding Great Dane, Helga, whose warm, tender, and playful friendships are so comforting to me.
    On that busy first day I should also view the small simple things of my home. I want to see the warm colors in the carpets under my feet, the pictures on the walls, the lovely small furniture that transforms a house into home. My eyes would rest respectfully on the books in dot-raised type which I have read, but they would be more eagerly interested in the printed books which seeing people can read, for during the long night of my life the books I have read and those which have been read to me have built themselves into a great shining lighthouse, showing me the deepest channels of human life and the human spirit.
    In the afternoon of that first seeing day, I should take a long walk in the woods and intoxicate (使陶醉) my eyes on the beauties of the world of Nature trying desperately to absorb in a few hours the vast brilliance which is presenting itself to those who can see. On the way home from my woodland trip, my path would lie close to a farm so that I might see the patient horses ploughing in the field and the peaceful content of men living close to the soil. And I should pray for the glory of a colorful sunset.
    When dusk had fallen, I should experience the double delight of being able to see by artificial light which the genius of man has created to extend the power of his sight when Nature brings darkness.
    In the night of that first day of sight, I should not be able to sleep, so full would be my mind of the memories of the day!
    (by Helen Keller)

    What is the hottest topic at your school recently? In Hangzhou Yongjin Middle School, it’s money.
    The school held an activity called“making money”last weekend. About 200 Junior 1 and Junior 2 students
    were divided into 30 teams. They went out                        . What did they choose to sell? Some
    sold newspapers; some chose bottled water; some sold environmentally friendly shopping bags and bamboo
    baskets.
    Hu Qing’s team decided to sell some us useful books in front of the Children Activity Center. They thought
    parents would like to buy the books for their children. But unfortunately, they met urban management officers.
    The officers asked them to leave.“We played hide-and-seek with the offices for the whole morning,”said Hu.
    “Finally we had to give up.”
    Wang Bing and her team sold ice cream in a square. They didn’t meet any officers. But few people were
    interested in what they were selling. The team then put up a board saying“For Country Kids”. It worked. More
    people came to their stall(小摊). A foreigner even gave them 100 Yuan.“He didn’t want any change. He said he
    wanted to help the children,” said Wang. “We were touched.”Later that day they gave the 100 Yuan and more
    to the “Project Hope”office.
    Meng Zhaoxiang and his team were luckier. They sold all their cakes in four hours, spending 39.5 Yuan and
    getting back 80 Yuan. They made 40.5 Yuan. “It was not easy to make the money,”said Meng. “Some people
    just looked. Others just tasted but didn’t buy. Now I know how hard it is for our parents to make money we need

    阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到相应的位置上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
    [1]Cooking carrots whole before chopping them up increases their anti-cancer properties by 25 percent, researchers say.
    [2]Leaving the vegetable intact (完整的) prevents valuable nutrients from being easily washed away into water. They can then be chopped up once cooked without loss of nutrients.
    [3]Carrots have long been prized for their health benefits, especially their vitamin and fiber content. They contain huge amounts of carotenoids（类胡萝卜素）which are converted into vitamin A in the body. They are also an excellent source of the anti-cancer compound falcarion (镰叶芹醇). In a previous study, Dr Kirsten Brandt found rats fed on a diet containing carrots or isolated falcarino were less likely to develop tumors than those which were not.
    [4]They also found that carrots boiled before they were cut contained 25 percent more falcarino than those that were chopped up first. Carrots which are cut have a higher surface area in contact with water, resulting in greater loss of nutrients, compared with boiling them whole. The heat softens the cell walls in the vegetable, allowing vitamins and falcarino to leach (过滤)out.
    [5]Dr Brandt said, "The great thing about this is that it's a simple way for people to increase their uptake of a compound, which is good for you. All you need is a bigger saucepan. Naturally occurring   sugars, responsible for giving the carrots its sweet flavor, were also found in higher concentration in carrots that had been cooked whole."
    [6]The team also carried out a taste on almost 100 volunteers comparing carrots boiled before being cut and some that are cut up first. More than 80 percent of volunteers said that carrots cooked whole tasted much better.
    [7]Boiling carrots whole appears to help them keep more of the nutrients. This is really a piece of good news because the method is of great value. Some other vegetables, such as parsnips (欧洲萝卜) which are from the same family and have a roughly similar size and texture can also be more nutritious by ____.
    1. What’ s the main idea of the passage? (No more than 10 words)
                                                                          
    2. Complete the following statement with proper words. (No more than 2 words)

    4. Why do people regard carrots as healthful vegetables? (No more than 8 words)

    阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。（请注意问题后的词数要求）
    〔1〕Too much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children．
    〔2〕One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders．Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedrooms TVs．
    〔3〕A second study, looking at nearly 1,000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-year-olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood．But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and don’t rule out that already poorly motivated youngsters（年轻人）may watch lots of TV．
    〔4〕Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages 5 and 15．Those with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per weeknight during childhood,___________ more than 2½ hours for those who had no education beyond high school．
    〔5〕In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest, while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest．
    〔6〕While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating findings that children shouldn’t have TVs in their bedrooms．
    小题1:What would be the best title for this text?
    _______________________________________________________________________．
    小题2:Which sentence in  the text is closest in meaning to the following one?
