12.Measles (麻疹),which once killed 450 children each year and disabled even more,was nearly wiped out in the United States 14 years ago by the universal use of the MMR vaccine (疫苗).But the disease is making a comeback,caused by a growing anti-vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreading quickly.Already this year,115 measles cases have been reported in the USA,compared with 189 for all of last year.
The numbers might sound small,but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend.When vaccination rates are very high,as they still are in the nation as a whole,everyone is protected.This is called"herd immunity",which protects the people who get hurt easily,including those who can't be vaccinated for medical reasons,babies too young to get vaccinated and people on whom the vaccine doesn't work.
But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in.When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride,immunity breaks down and everyone is in even bigger danger.
That's exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange County,California,where 22 measles cases were reported this month,to Brooklyn,N.Y.,where a 17-year-old caused an outbreak last year.
The resistance to vaccine has continued for decades,and it is driven by a real but very small risk.Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer.
Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out (决定不参加) of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten.Seventeen states allow parents to get an exemption (豁免),sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine.
Now,several states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out.But no one does enough to limit exemptions.
Parents ought to be able to opt out only for limited medical or religious reasons.But personal opinions?Not good enough.Everyone enjoys the life-saving benefits vaccines provide,but they'll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks.
 
32.The first two paragraphs suggest thatA
A.a small number of measles cases can start a dangerous trend
B.the outbreak of measles attracts the public attention
C.anti-vaccine movement has its medical reasons
D.information about measles spreads quickly
33.Herd immunity works well whenB
A.exemptions are allowed
B.the whole neighborhood is involved in
C.several vaccines are used together
D.new regulations are added to the state laws
34.What is the main reason for the comeback of measles?A
A.The vaccine opt-outs of some people.
B.The lack of medical care.
C.The features of measles itself.
D.The overuse of vaccine.
35.What is the purpose of the passage?B
A.To introduce the idea of exemption.
B.To stress the importance of vaccination.
C.To discuss methods to cure measles.
D.To appeal for equal rights in medical treatment.

8.October 15th is the Global Hand washing Day.Activities are planned in more than 20countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap.For example,donors(捐赠者) will give 150,000bars of soap to schools in Ethiopia.
Experts say people around the world wash their hands every day,but very few use soap at so-called important moments.These include after using the toilet,after cleaning a baby and before touching food.
Global Hand washing Day is the idea of the Public-Private Partnership for Hand washing with Sap.Partners include the United Nations Children's Fund,American government agencies,the World Bank and soap makers Unlever and Procter and Gamble.The organizers say all soaps are equally effective at removing disease-causing germ(细菌).They say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap.Rub(揉搓) it into all areas,including under the fingernails(指甲).Rub for at least twenty seconds.Then rinse well under running water.Finally,dry your hands with a clean cloth or wave them in the air.
The Partnership for Hand washing says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend in wshing hands.Soap also helps to break up the dirt that holds most of the germs.And it usually leaves a pleasant smell.The Partnership for Hand washing also says washing with soap before eating or after using the toilet could save more lives than any vaccine(疫苗)or medicine.Hand washing could also prevent the spread of other diseases.When people get germs on their hands,they can infect(感染)themselves by touching their eyes,noses or mouths.Then they can infect others.

51.What's the best title for this passage?C
A.Say no to washing hands in the wrong way.
B.Find out why washing hands carefully is so important.
C.Hand washing:so important----it gets a day of its own.
D.Want to live a longer life?-wash your hands.
52.The word"rinse"in Paragraph 3 probably meansB.
A.to dry your hands
B.to wash away the soap
C.to rub your hands carefully
D.to clean your fingers
53.The last paragraph mainly tells usB.
A.how to wash your hands correctly
B.why washing hand with soap is so important
C.the dangers of washing hands without soap
D.when we should especially wash our hands with soap
54.In which part of newspaper would you most probably read this passage?C
A.Medical care     B.Public service       C.Health report     D.Advertisement.

5.Look no further than Airbnb.Started in 2007,the website enables anyone,anywhere in the world,t list spare space on the website and rent it out like a hotel.It operates in over 19,000cities and in almost 200countries,and is now so popular that an Airbnb room is booked every two seconds.
This and other similar projects are testament to the growing popularity of"collaborative consumption"---sharing,swapping and renting your possessions.
This even extends to financial services and investing.For example,"peer-to-peer lending"is the now well-established practice of lending money to individuals or businesses through online services that match lenders directly with borrowers,enabling both parties to circumvent traditional providers such as banks.
These"peer-to-peer lending companies operate almost entirely online,and so can provide services more cheaply than traditional financial institutions.As a result,those investing can often earn higher returns compared to those offered by the banks,while the borrowers can in turn borrow money at lower interest rates.
Peer-to-peer lending doesn't fit cleanly into any of the three traditional types of financial institution-deposit taking,investment or insurance-and is sometimes categorized as"alternative finance".There are many types of peer-to-peer lending in operation around the world.Many peer-to-peer loans are unsecured personal loans made to consumers,although some peer-to-peer platforms,such as Wellesley &Co,specialize in making secured loans to businesses and using physical assets as security for those loans,thereby minimizing the risk while keeping high returnsof up to 5.8% per year.
By the end of 2015,UK peer-to-peer lenders had collectively lent almost£4.5bn to consumers and businesses.If you are losing interest in you savings,why not do something more interesting with your money-The Wellesley Way!

28.The example of Airbnb is given in order toA.
A.introduce the topic of the text
B.show the idea behind the service
C.analyse the reasons for its popularity
D.compare it with other similar websites
29.What does the underline word"circumvent"in Paragraph 3 mean?A
A.Avoid
B.Rely on
C.Connect
D.Communicate through
30.What do we know about peer-to-peer lending?D
A.It puts the borrowers at risk.
B.It is still in the experimental stage.
C.It's a traditional type of financial institution.
D.It's a win-win choice for both sides involved.
31.How does the autho introduce Wellesley &Co in paragraph 5?B
A.By using numbers
B.By making comparisons
C.By following the order of time
D.By following the order of importance.

3.It's finally that time:the start of the college year.For some,this is the first year.For me,it's the last.But I still remember that summer between high school and college when I didn't really know what I was getting myself into.There are plans and ideas about what my college experience was going to be like,but none of them worked out as planned.Here are three things I wish I had known before my freshman year.
(1)Use the mental health services available to you.you aren't alone.
That first night at college was memorable.I was scared and in a new place.There was homesickness that got better as I settled in.and though I continued to miss things from home,these weren't the only reasons I felt down.The academic pressure to succeed and the social pressure to fit in are too much for some people.And these pressures don't just happen in freshman year.
For me,there were upsets long after the days that required a map to figure out where all the buildings were on campus.Close friends guided me in the right direction,which was important because talking helps---even if it's just with a friend.Don't be afraid to take that extra step.
(2)It's OK to change your mind about your major(专业).
I entered the fall of my freshman year ready to major in politics,philosophy and economics,in preparation for a law degree.Things changed.You meet new people and discover new interests.
It's normal to be a little unsure of your plans once you start taking classes.So,don't worry if you haven't figured out exactly what you're going to major in.it will likely change anyway.
(3)You're there to get a degree and later a job,but a little fun won't hurt.
When my college days are long gone,I'm not going to remember the grades I got on papers or the late nights spent studying.
Instead,memorable moments will include playing video games with my roommate at 3:00am instead of writing a paper,or late-night runs with my friends after a night out---things that make for lifelong memories.
Doing well is important inside the classroom,but there are also jobs,internships(实习)and other pressures.Employers weigh internships and employment during college more heavily than your GPA,according to a 2012survey of employers by The Chronicle of Higher Education Finding a balance of killing it in the classroom,getting internships and having fun with friends is important.You don't want to burn out early.
Everyone says that college is the best four years of your life.but it can also be a stressful,messy period of self-exploration and discovery.But is it fun?No question.
Getting most from your (66)collegelife
Students need to(67)been keep/havethree things in mind before their first year in college.
Mental health service is helpful.●Both academic and social(68)pressureleads to students'unhappiness in college.
●(69)Talkingwith a friend is a good step to get help.
Change the major when necessary●Things might change when college students have new friends and (70)interests
●Students are(71)likelyto change their majors even after they start taking certain classes.
Learning and career are the primary goals in college,but first have some (72)fun.●Playing video games or outing with friends at night will be the most (73)unforgettablemoments in college.
●(74)Employersput more value on internships and employment during college than students'academic achievements.
conclusionGet yourself (75)ready/preparedbecause college years can be stressful and messy.
