    8．Grandparents who help out occasionally with childcare in their community tend to live longer than seniors who do not care for other people，according to a study from Berlin，Germany．
    "Having no contact with grandchildren at all can negatively impact grandparents'health．This link could be deeply rooted in our evolutionary past when help with childcare was important for the survival of the human species，"said Sonja Hilbrand，one of the researchers．
    The findings are drawn from data on more than 500 people over age 70．Overall，after accounting for grandparents'age and general state of health，the risk of dying over a 20-year period was one-third lower for grandparents who cared for their grandchildren，compared with grandparents who provided no childcare．
    Caregiving was associated with a longer life even when the care receiver wasn't a relative．Half of a11childless seniors who provided support to friends or neighbors lived for seven years after the study began，while non-helpers lived for four years on average．
    "Caregiving may give caregivers a purpose of life because they may feel useful for others and society．Caregiving may be thought also as an activity that keeps caregivers physically and mentally active，"said Professor Bruno Arpino．
    Arpino noted，however，that caregiving is not the only activity that can improve health and that too many caring responsibilities can take away from other beneficial activities like working，being in social clubs，or volunteering．"Children should take into account their parents'needs，willingness，and desires and agree with them on the timing and amount of childcare，"he suggested．
    "It is very important that every individual decides for him/herself，what proper amounts of help'means，"Hilbrand said，adding，"As long as you do not feel stressed about the intensity（强度）of help you provide you may be doing something good for others as well as for yourself．"

    8．What is the caregiving study based on？D
    A．Human evolutionary history．
    B．Demand modern society．
    C．Social contact between relatives．
    D．Data on many elderly people．
    9．In Arpino's opinion，childcareB．
    A．is sure to keep old people away from illnesses
    B．allows old people to live a more meaningful life
    C．creates more job opportunities for old people
    D．makes social activities inaccessible to old people
    10．What does the underlined part"take into account"in Paragraph 6 probably mean？D
    A．Limit．    B．Ignore．    C．Favor．    D．Consider．
    11．What does the last paragraph tell us？C
    A．Grandparents can do anything in their own interests．
    B．Grandparents should share more social responsibilities．
    C．Proper amounts of childcare do good to grandparents．
    D．Caregiving guarantees every grandparent a longer life．

    6．Most of us will be familiar with the traditional talent show set-up：thousands of hopefuls line up outside the audition （试音） room，wait for hours，go in and perform for a group of judges．Then these potential pop stars could be lucky and get through to the next round，or they might hear the command，"Sorry，it's a'no'from me"．But what do the judges actually bring to a talent show？
        Music talent show judges attract millions of viewers each week to their programs．As public figures，they play an important part in advertising campaigns for these programs．But they often receive high salaries and can be moody （情绪化的）．Are they really worth the expenses and difficulties that they can cause？One solution might be to replace them with computers．
        Can computers really match human judges？Scientist Dr．Nick Collins and his team at the University of Sussex think they can．Dr．Collins has been working on a project that involves programming three computerized judges that he says would be far more consistent in their judgment of musical performances．Employing a special programming language，Dr．Collins's digital judges can be trained up by"listening"to particular musical styles．After they have been listening for a while，the programming language allows these judges to spot the specific features of the music．It takes eight hours to train the electronic judges in this way．During this time，they analyze lots of information about each track （录音） they listen to，including the voice quality of the music，the rhythm（节奏） and the way the tracks change over time．
        Collins even says that the judges also have pet hates or guilty pleasures and that he can't expect how they will turn out．He adds，"The judges'listening ability is not yet as good as a human ear，but they won't be as moody as some human reality TV show judges．"
        Maybe that's the problem with this electronic musical change．Real human judges on talent shows interest us with their personality，decisions and humorous words．Will a computer be able to do the same？

    51．The setup of the traditional talent show is described in Paragraph 1 toD．
    A．find out more potential pop star
    B．show the popularity of the talent show
    C．make people familiar with the talent show
    D．bring up the topic of talent show judges
    52．What is the key message conveyed in Paragraph 2？C
    A．Music talent shows are very popular nowadays．
    B．There are too many advertisements in talent show programs．
    C．There are some problems with talent show judges．
    D．Judges are very important in the talent show programs．
    53．Which of the following best describes how Collins's computerized judges work？C
    A．They follow the change of each track．
    B．They assess the voice quality of specific music．
    C．They discover the characteristics of the music after listening to it．
    D．They imitate the specific features of different music styles．
    54．How does Collins think about his computerized judges？D
    A．They will be perfect for any talent show．
    B．They can listen as well as human ears．
    C．They will be welcomed by the public．
    D．They can judge more fairly than human judges．
    55．What's  the  writer's  opinion  about  replacing  real  human  judges  with computerized ones？A
    A．Doubtful．
    B．Interested．
    C．Satisfied．

    7．Food serves as a form of communication in two fundamental ways．Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust．Food can also have a specific meaning，and play a significant role in a family or culture's celebrations or traditions．The foods we eat-and when and how we eat them-are often unique to a particular culture or may even differ between rural （农村的） and urban areas within one country．
    Sharing bread，whether during a special occasion or at the family dinner table，is a common symbol of togetherness．Many cultures also celebrate birthdays and marriages with cakes that are cut and shared among the guests．Early forms of cake were simply a kind of bread，so this tradition has its roots in the custom of sharing bread．
    Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations．In the southern United States，pieces of corn bread represent blocks of gold for prosperity （兴旺） in the New Year．In Greece，people share a special cake called vasilopita．A coin is put into the cake，which signifies  success in the New Year for the person who receives it．
    Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child，and food can play a significant role．In China，when a baby is one month old，families name and welcome their child in a celebration that includes giving redcolored eggs to guests．In many cultures，round foods such as grapes，bread，and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to represent family unity．
    Nutrition is necessary for life，so it is not surprising that food is such an important part of different cultures around the world．
    29．According to the passage，sharing breadD．
    A．indicates a lack of food
    B．has its roots in birthday celebrations
    C．is a custom unique to rural areas
    D．can help to develop unity
    30．What does the coin in vasilopita signify for its receiver in the New Year？D
    A．Trust．B．Togetherness．C．Health．D．Success．
    31．The author explains the role of food in celebrations byC．
    A．analyzing causes         B．making comparisons
    C．using examples           D．describing processes
    32．What is the passage mainly about？A
    A．The importance of food in culture．
    B．The specific meaning of food．
    C．The role of food in ceremonies．
    D．The custom of sharing food．

    14．It was the summer of 1965．DeLuca，then 17，visited Peter Buck，a family friend．Buck asked DeLuca about his plans for the future．"I'm going to college，but I need a way to pay for it，"DeLuca recalls saying．"Buck said，‘You should open a sandwich shop．'"
    That afternoon，they agreed to be partners．And they set a goal：to open 32 stores in ten years．After doing some research，Buck wrote a check for 1000．DeLucarentedastorefront（店面）inConnecticut，andwhentheycouldn'tcovertheirstart-upcosts，Buckkickedinanother1000．
    But business didn't go smoothly as they expected．DeLuca says，"After six months，we were doing poorly，but we didn't know how badly，because we didn't have any financial controls．"All he and Buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs．
    DeLuca was managing the store and going to the University of Bridgeport at the same time．Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in New York．They'd meet Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running．"We convinced ourselves to open a second store．We figured we could tell the public，‘We are so successful，we are opening a second store．'"And they did-in the spring of 1966．Still，it was a lot of learning by trial and error．

    And having a goal was also important．"There are so many problems that can get you down．You just have to keep working toward your goal，"DeLuca adds．
