题目列表(包括答案和解析)

Honestly, since my daughter was born, I have thought a lot about how to raise a child. I once heard a story that told about when a baby was born. The story said that when a baby was born, a new master was born. The parents of that baby would become the servants. The question is: Why? Based on my observation, this phenomenon is true. Most parents who don't pay much attention to their kids have difficulties with their kids' attitude.

I'll make a comparison of how two families raise their children. The first one is a family with three children. Both mother and father never say "No" to their children's demands. As a result, all of their children became stubborn and won't listen to their parents’ words, "We can't."

The second family educated their children strictly from one year old to high school. The parents never approved or agreed directly to give their children what they wanted. They always postponed one or two days, even if they could afford it. Due to the way their parents educated them, these children understood that if they wanted something, they had to wait or they had to make an effort first. As a result, all the kids from the second family successfully graduated from university on time.

In my opinion, if we want to be successful parents and raise our children well, we have to start disciplining them when they are toddlers but not wait until they become teenagers.

1.Why did the writer give two different stories in this passage?

A.To help prove his opinion about raising a child.

B.To list different ways that parents may take.

C.To criticize some parents’ foolish action.

D.To prove that his way of education is right.

2.What does the underlined word “postponed” in the third paragraph mean?

A.Carried out at once.

B.Gave up.

C.Put off.

D.Made a decision.

3.In the writer’s opinion, which of the following about raising a child is TRUE?

A.Children should be respected once they were born.

B.Parents should educate their children as early as possible.

C.It is right time to educate their children when they are teenagers.

D.Children should be helped whenever they make mistakes.

Goldie's Secret

       She turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall. No way could I have sent her away. No way, not me anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. "We're moving house.'; "No space for her any more with the baby coming." "We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present." People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.

       I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given

her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner's. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.

       That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.

       By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. "We didn't know what had happened to her," said the woman at the door. "I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared." "She must have tried to come back to them and got lost," added a boy from behind her. '

       I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I've got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I've learnt a good lesson: not to judge people.

1. How did the author feel about Goldie when Goldie came to the house?

     A. Shocked.          B. Sympathetic.    C. Annoyed.      D. Upset.

2. In her first few days at the author's house, Goldie____________.

     AI felt worried                          B. was angry

     C. ate a little                            D. sat by the fire

3. Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she       .

     A. saw her puppies                      B. heard familiar barkings

     C. wanted to leave the author              D. found her way to her old home

4. The passage is organized in order of____________.

     A. time             B. effectiveness    C. importance     D. complexity

It is the first report that home-grown food has been contaminated by radioactivity, largely Iodine(碘)-131, since the ministry ordered radiation( powerful and harmful rays that are sent out from radioactive substances) tests on food and water at the end of March in 14 mainland regions including Beijing, Tianjin, and some coastal provinces.

Sample inspections conducted on Tuesday found low levels of radioactive iodine in spinach( a kind of green vegetables) planted in Beijing, Tianjin and Henan province --- about 1-3 becquerels per kilogram (Bq/kg), the statement said.

"The contamination level detected is too low to be harmful to public health," it said.

According to health experts, radioactive iodine can accumulate in humans once ingested in high concentrations and increases the risk of thyroid cancer. But it decays naturally within weeks.

Leafy vegetables grown in the open like spinach, lettuce and leek are among the first foods to be tainted by radioactive deposits.

Raw milk is also susceptible to radioactive contamination as livestock feed on grass.

Tests carried out in March showed spinach and milk taken from farms near Japan's nuclear-stricken area had exceeded(go beyond) government-set safety limits for radiation.

No cases of tainted water or milk have been reported in China but the ministry vowed to further strengthen monitoring.

Wang Zhongwen, a researcher at the China Institute of Atomic Energy's radiation safety department, told China Daily on Wednesday that currently China only had the means to conduct food radiation tests in a few regions.

The statement also said that recent rain in Beijing and Tianjin meant radioactive substances could have fallen on vegetables.

Chen Jicang, a vegetable dealer in Beijing, said on Wednesday that concerns are growing among consumers, businesses and governments across the world.

"We have yet to see any impact on our business from the radiation, but we will keep a close eye on how the issue develops," he said.

He added that most vegetables consumed in Beijing are produced locally, and he might switch to other varieties if spinach sales suffer.

Yang Guoshan, a researcher of radiation medical science at the Academy of Military Medical Sciences, said people could safely eat products that contain low levels of Iodine-131.

"The radiation level is so low that residents don't need to spend any extra effort on cleaning them," he said.

Gao Jie, a 52-year-old resident in Tianjin said she is deeply worried because spinach is a staple part of her family's diet.

"If spinach is radioactive, is there any possibility that other types of vegetables are safe?"

Trace levels of radioactive isotope cesium-137 and -134 were detected in the air in 21 provinces and regions on Wednesday, up from 17 on Tuesday, according to China's National Nuclear Emergency Coordination Committee.

What does the underlined word mean in para 1?

A. protected  B. contained   C. polluted by dangerous substances   D. tested

Why are the spinach and milk taken from nuclear-stricken area not safe?

A. Because tests have been carried out there.

B. Raw milk is sensitive to radioactive contamination as livestock(家畜)feed on grass.

C. The amount of radioactive substances goes beyond the safe limits for radiation.

D. Japan is a nuclear-stricken area.

Where do you think this passage comes from?

A. a magazine   B. CCTV news  C. a journal   D. a novel

What is not mentioned in the passage?

A. Consumers became concerned about the safety of vegetables.

B. People need to clean vegetables completely before cooking because of radiation.

C. Food and water have to be tested since the end of March in 14 mainland regions

D. Low levels of radioactive iodine has been found in spinach in Tianjin

What do you think is mainly talked about in the passage?

A. How the radioactivity came into being

B. What we should do in face of radioactivity.

C. Radioactivity has no side effect on human being.

D. Home-grown food has been affected by radioactivity.

      Sports medicine experts have observed for  years that athletes such as long distance runners, especially women athletes, often display a lack of iron. Now a new study by a team of Purdue University researchers suggests that even moderate exercise may lead to reduced iron in the blood of women.

"We found that women who were normally inactive and then started a program of moderate exercise of middle degree showed sings of iron loss," says Roseanne M. Lyle, associate professor at Purdue. Her study of 62 formerly inactive women who began exercising three times a week for six months was published in the journal Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise.

Iron deficiency is very common among women in general, affecting one in four female teenagers and one in five women aged 18 to 45, respectively. But the ratio is even greater among active women, affecting up to 80 percent of female endurance athletes. This means, Lyle says, that "too many women ignore the amount of iron they take in". Women of child-bearing age are at greatest risk, since their monthly bleeding is a major source of iron loss. Plus, many health-conscious women increase their risk by rejecting red meat, which contains the most easily absorbed form of iron. And because women often restrict their diet in an effort to control weight, they may not consume enough iron-rich food, and are liable to experience a deficiency.

Exercise can result in iron loss through a variety of mechanisms. Some iron is lost in sweat, and, for unknown reasons, intense endurance exercise is sometimes associated with bleeding of the digestive system. Athletes in high-impact sports such as running may also lose iron through a phenomenon where small blood vessels in the feet leak blood.

There are three stages of iron deficiency. The first and most common is having low iron reserves, a condition that typically has no symptoms. Fatigue and poor performance may begin to appear in the second stage of deficiency, when not enough iron is present to form the molecules(分子) of blood protein that transport oxygen to the working muscles. In the third and final stage, people often feel weak, tired, and out of breath - and exercise performance is severely compromised.

"People think that if they're not at the third stage, nothing is wrong, but that's not true," says John L. Beard, who helped design the Purdue study. "You're not stage 3 until your iron reserves go to zero, and if you wait until that point, you're in trouble."

       Beard and other experts say it’s advisable for people to have a yearly blood test. If iron levels are low, talk with a physician to see if the deficiency should be corrected by changing your diet and taking iron-rich foods or by taking iron-added pills.

 “Select breads and cereals with the words ‘iron-added’ on the label,” writes sports diet expert Nancy Clark. “This added iron supplements the small amount that naturally occurs in grains.” Clark also recommends cooking in iron pans, as food can obtain iron from the pan during the cooking process.

64.Which of the following may be the title for the passage?

       A.Science, sports and exercise

       B.Correct iron deficiency

       C.Women, Iron and exercise

       D.Women, health and exercise

65.The third paragraph is developed mainly by             .

       A.organizing the details according to the order of time

       B.presenting the result followed by specific causes

       C.beginnign with details followed by a general statement

       D.making comparisons ad contrasts

66.What does it mean when you are in the third stage of iron defieiency?

       A.Nothing serious though you don’t have much iron stored in the body.

       B.There is not enough iron to form the molecules of blood protein to transport oxygen.

       C.The small blood vessels in your reet are beginnig to leak blood.

       D.No iron is ldft in your body and you would be in trouble without urgent measures.

67.What is the writer’s attitude in writing this passage?

       A.Defensive.       B.Persuasive.      C.Supportive.      D.Objective.
