| 第1、2、3、4、5、6、7题：Leonard Turkel couldn't believe his ears when he learned what happened to the results of eye screenings （筛查） of thousands of Miami-Dade County public school students. Although the tests are mandated （授权） by the state,the businessman-turned-philanthropist （慈善家） discovered that nobody was actually using the scores to ensure that kids could see the blackboard in class. Today,a sight-laboratory-in-a-bus financed by Turkel pulls up to （追上） schools in low-income areas,not only providing eyesight tests for children but also ensuring that glasses,when needed,are made and delivered within days—all for free. It was in the mid-1990s that Turkel started the sight program almost by chance.Important in opening a primary care center in the low-income Miami community of Overtown,Turkel said he was told that the eye screening he was planning for children was already being done by the school system. But then he learned that the results of school screenings—to be performed several times during a child's schooling,along with tests for hearing and scoliosis （脊柱侧凸）—were essentially（基本的） sitting in drawers.The school system could tell anybody who asked how many kids had failed sight screenings,but nobody was getting the kids help.Turkel decided to change that. "Once the kids who need help are identified,there had to be a way to go to the schools and provide them with whatever they needed，" said Turkel,president of the Miami-based nonprofit Turkel Resource Foundation （基金会） and co-founder of the University of Miami business school's Center for Nonprofit Management. The program,which at its height has served about 6，000 students a year,has faced financial obstacles but is operating today under a new grant （拨款）and with the help of 14 organizations.All schools in the 360，000-student system are now covered by the program. 1.Leonard Turkel felt surprised at the results of eye screenings of the students A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 2.Leonard Turkel used to be a philanthropist,but now he has turned a businessman A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 3.A sight-laboratory-in-a-bus provides poor areas with eyesight tests and glasses for free A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 4.In the mid-1990s,Turkel found no organization was doing eyesight screening for the students,so he started his plan A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 5.Much was done by school to help the students who had bad hearing and scoliosis test results A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentionedd 6.Turkel Resource Foundation provides free service to the school kids who need help and makes a lot of money from the foreign trade with other countries A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 7.The students from all schools add up to 360，000 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned |

| 第8、9、10、11、12、13、14题： Sixty-three percent of American women think that if there's no family history of cancer,you're not likely to develop the disease,a new survey found. In fact,most people who develop cancer have no family history of cancer,according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists （ACOG）（美国妇产科医师学会）,which sponsored the survey. "Too many women are dying from cancer,Dr. Douglas W. Laube,ACOG,s immediate past president,said during a Friday teleconference. "An estimated 200,070 women will die in the U. S. this year,and over 600,078 women will be diagnosed with cancer. The results of this survey found a worrisome （令人担忧的）gap in women,s knowledge about cancer. " Based on the findings,ACOG is increasing its efforts to educate women about cancer and the need for regular screening tests. Although the survey found many misconceptions （错误观念）about cancer,76 percent of women surveyed did say they feel knowledgeable about how they can reduce their risk of the disease. However,only 52 percent said they were doing enough to reduce that risk. And 10 percent said they hadn't done anything in the past year to lower their risk. Seventeen percent said they wouldn't change their lifestyles,even if changes would lower their cancer risk. Many women said they were afraid to undergo screening out of fear of finding cancer. Twenty percent said they didn't want to know if they had cancer. In response to these findings,ACOG will launch on Oct. 29 a new website — Protect &Detect： What Women Should Know about Cancer. The guide is designed to help women to take charge of their health and improve their understanding of their risk of cancer — and the lifestyle steps they can take to cut that risk. 1 Many American women have a poor knowledge of cancer. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 2 People with no family history of cancer are unlikely to develop cancer. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 3 More women are dying from cancer than men in America. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 4 Most American women know too little about how to lower their cancer risk. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 5 Some American women are just unwilling to change their lifestyles. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 6 Some American women are too afraid of finding cancer to undergo screening. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 7 ACOG's efforts to educate women about cancer will be greatly appreciated. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned |

| 第15、16、17、18、19、20、21题： It has been well documented that for centuries the olive leaf has offered a natural means to cure many ailments of the body. This can also be applied as a toenail fungus cure. Oleuropein（橄榄苦甙）,the name established for the agent in the olive leaf extract,is the reason why the olive leaf provides many positive attributes. Olive trees require this substance to ensure that the plant itself is quite robust so as to withstand any harsh weather situations or attacks from insects. The antimicrobial（抗菌剂） characteristic of olive leaf extract comes about when the oleuropein breaks down in the body into a certain acid. This acid interferes with a pathogen's（病原体的） ability to replicate. A beneficial byproduct of this response is that a jump start is given to the immune system,which begins to fight bacteria and infection on its own as well. Studies today show that toenail fungus is a common,infectious condition that strikes many people. It typically occurs when the immune system is down and can be difficult to eliminate from your system once contracted. Scientifically is it referred to as onychomycosis（灰指甲） which accounts for a large proportion of nail disorders and can become rather unsightly and painful. It first begins as a discoloration of sorts or a light colored spot under the tip of the toenail which then runs to spread until the entire nail itself is noticeably yellow and rough completely yellow,thick and rough. Fortunately,toenail fungus doesn't have to be accepted as a part of life. Various treatments are now available on the market to eliminate the fungus that causes this unpleasant condition. Applying the natural healing potential of olive leaf oil has proven to be a safe and natural way rid of this difficult ailment. When purchasing olive leaf extract,it is important to purchase from a reputable company as the processing of the plant must be done carefully to ensure that the extract is potent and effective. When consuming olive leaf extract it is important to start slowly to prevent what is known as Herxheimer reaction or "die-off." However,this outcome only happens when large doses are taken quickly. If the treatment begins slowly and is gradually increased,this response to detoxification is rarely seen at all. It is a preferable course of treatment to ingest a small amount of capsules on a daily basis to relieve toenail fungus. It is necessary to complete this therapy until the fungus is completely extinguished. Even as the fungus dies and the toenail starts to clear it is critical to persist with the course until the infected portion has grown out altogether. This toenail fungus cure should be accompanied by future preventions so that this will not occur again by keeping toenails clean and hygienic and to always keep them protected when visiting public areas where toenails are exposed. 1.Olive trees require leuropein to survive any harsh weather situations or attacks from insects A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 2.The acid generated from oleuropein can strengthen a pathogen's ability to replicate. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 3.Toenail fungus cannot pass from one person to another even with close contacts. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 4.Onychomycosis can be ugly but not painful A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 5.There isn‘t any effective treatment on the market to eliminate the toenail fungus,but medical experts are trying their best to develop a therapy for that A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 6.The olive oil extract should be put on the infected toenails by a small amount at the beginning,and then the doses can be increased little by little A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 7.When the fungus dies and the toenail starts to clear,the treatment can end A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned |

| 第22、23、24、25、26、27、28题： If you're worried about the possibility of a coming bird flu epidemic,you can take comfort in the fact that humanity has survived a similar influenza epidemic in the past.Starting its rounds at the end of World War I,the 1918 flu killed an estimated 50 million people. Popularly known as the Spanish Flu,this type of influenza was far worse than your common cold.Normally,influenza only kills those who are more vulnerable to disease,such as newborns,the old or the sick.However,the Spanish Flu was prone to killing the young and health.Often it would disable its victims in hours； within a day,they would be dead,typically from extreme cases of pneumonia（肺炎）. The Spanish Flu was quite nasty-fast-spreading and deadl.It managed to spread across the globe,devastating the world.Then suddenly,after two years ravaging（蹂躏）the Earth,it disappeared as quickly as it had arisen. Despite its nickname,the Spanish Flu did not originate in Spain.Its true origins are unknown.Some believe it started in US forts and then spread to Europe as America joined the war； others think that it populated the trenches of the English and the French and eventually broke out in 1918.Regardless of where it started,eventually a fifth of the world population suffered the disease,with a global mortality rate（死亡率）estimated at 2.5% of the population. Modernity was partly to blame for the quick spread of the disease.It passed throughout the world on trade routes and shipping lines.It hit Northern America,Europe,Asia,Africa and the South Pacific.The war did not help at all-the movement of supplies and troops aided the spread of the Spanish Flu,as well as the trench warfare.Imagine the speed at which a virus can spread in a crowded ditch.The fast emergence of the virus in the trenches caused some soldiers to believe that the Spanish Flu was a new form of biological warfare. Luckily,the Spanish Flu simply vanished by 1920.It is believed the flu simply ran out of fuel to spread. 1.The Spanish Flu started during World War I. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 2.The Spanish Flu posed a greater threat to the old and the sick. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 3.As the Spanish Flu was spreading,people in Australia were worried.

| 第29、30、31、32、33、34、35题： The story goes that a certain court jester went too far one day and insulted his king.The king became so infuriated he sentenced the jester to be executed.His court prayed upon the king to have mercy for this man who had served him well for so many years.After a time,the king relented only enough to give the jester his choice as to how he would like| to die.The jester replied,"If it's all the same to you,my Lord,I'd like to die of old age." Certainly in this case,a good sense of humor saved the man‘s life. It's true for us as well.We may not be faced with a situation where our wit will save us from an execution,but our sense of humor and the ability to laugh at things has proven health benefits that extend and improve our quality of life.Norman Cousins,in his book Anatomy of an Illness,wrote about how he cured himself of cancer by laughing a good part of each day.He rented films of comedies and watched them for hours on end in his hospital room.He had nothing to lose since he'd been diagnosed as terminal.His "experiment" turned out to be a classic example of the healing powers of laughter.If it worked for Cousins with a life-threatening illness,it can work for us to enhance and protect our good health.We should laugh often and heartily.It‘s good for our body.Besides,life's too important to take seriously. 1.The jester made the king angry by playing jokes with his crown A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 2.The king was so angry with the jester that he wanted to kill the jester A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 3.The court asked for the king‘s mercy on the jester because he’s too old and stupid A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 4.The king forgave the jester at once because he knew that the jester had served him well for so many years A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 5.The jester chose to die of old age together with his wife and children A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 6.Norman Cousins cured himself of lung cancer by laughing a good part of each day A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 7.Norman Cousins rented some funny movies to see in his wards A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned |

| 第36、37、38、39、40、41、42题： Micro-chip Research Center Created A research center has been set up in this far-east country to develop advanced micro-chip production technology.The center,which will start out with about US $ 14 million,will help the country develop its chip industry without always depending on imported technology. The center will make use of its research skills and facilities to develop new technology for domestic chip plants.The advent of the center will possibly free the country from the situation that it is always buying almost-outdated technologies from other countries,said the country's flagship chipmaker.Currently,chip plants in this country are in a passive situation because many foreign governments don’t allow them to import the most advanced technologies,fearing they will be used for military purposes.Moreover,the high licensing fees they have to pay to technology providers are also an important reason for their decision of self-reliance. As mainstream chip production technology shifts from one generation to the next every three to five years,plants with new technology can make more powerful chips at lower costs,while plants with outdated equipment,which often cost billions of dollars to build,will be marginalized by the maker.More than 10 chip plants are being built,each costing millions of U.S dollars.The majority of that money goes to overseas equipment vendors and technology owners-mainly from Japan and Singapore. Should the new center play a major role in improving the situation in the industry,the country admits the US $14 million investment is still rather small.This country is developing comprehensive technologies.Most of the investment will be spent on setting alliances with technology and intellectual property owners.练习： 1.The country says that the investment of US $ 14 million is big enough for developing that country's chip industry. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 2.That country gives top priorities to developing chips for military purposes. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 3.Although the licensing fees are not very high,that far-east country cannot afford to pay. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 4.Many western countries ban the exporting of the most advanced chip-making technologies to that country to prevent them for being used for military purposes. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 5.Currently,almost all the flagship chipmakers in that country are owned by American investors. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 6.Mainstream chip production technology develop rapidly. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 7.More than 10 chip plants being built in that country are an example of self-reliance. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned |

George Snyder was driving the fire truck down Route 88 when he first noticed that a funnel（漏斗状的）cloud was behind him."I stopped the truck and watched the funnel cloud.It was about 100 feet off the ground and I saw it go up and down for a while.It was moving toward Bradley Road and then suddenly it disappeared."Snyder said. Snyder only saw one of the funnel clouds that passed through northeastern 0hio on Saturday.In Trumbull County，a tornado turned trees onto their sides.Some trees fell onto houses and cars.Other trees fell into telephone and electrical wires as they went down. Amanda Sym check was having a party when the storm began."I knew something was wrong," he said."I saw the sky go green and pink（粉红色）。Then it sounded like a train rushing toward the house.I started crying and told everyone to go to the basement for protection." The tornado caused a 10t of damage to cars and houses in the area.It will take a long time and much money to repair everything.There was also serious water damage from the thunderstorms.The heavy rains and high wind caused the power to go out in many homes. The storms caused serious flooding in areas near the river.More than four inches of rain fell in parts of Trumbull County.The river was so high that the water ran into streets and houses.Many streets had to be closed to Cars and trucks because of the high water.This made it difficult for fire trucks，police Cars，and other rescue vehicles to help people who were in trouble.Many people who live near the river had to leave their homes for their own safety.Some people reported five feet of water in their homes.Local and state officials opened emergency shelters for the people who were evacuated（撤走）。‘The Red Cross served meals to them.

| 第57、58、59、60、61、62、63题： Mad Scientist Stereotype Outdated Do people still imagine a physicist as a bearded man in glasses or has the image of the mad scientist changed？ The Institute of Physics set out to find out whether the stereotype of a physics 'boffin' （科学家）still exists by conducting a survey on shoppers in London.The people were asked to identify the physicist from a photograph of a line-up of possible suspects.98 percent of those asked got it wrong.The majority of people picked a white male of around 60,wearing glasses and with a white beard. While this stereotype may have been the image of an average physicist fifty years ago,the reality is now very different.Since 1960 the number of young women entering physics has doubled and the average age of a physicist is now 31. The stereotype of the absent-minded scientist has lasted a long time because the media and Hollywood help promote the image of men in white lab coats with glasses sitting by blackboards full of equations（等式）or working with fizzing （嘶嘶响）test tubes.These stereotypes are really damaging to society.Very good school children are put off studying science because they don't see people like themselves on television or in magazines doing science.They simply don't relate to the media's image of the mad scientist. This is one reason why fewer young people are choosing to do science at university.If we want to encourage more young people to study science subjects,we need to change this image of the scientist and make science careers more attractive.But we must also develop children's interest in science. In an attempt to change this negative image,an increasing number of science festivals are being organized.Thousands of people from secondary schools are also encouraged to take part in nationwide science competitions of which the most popular are the national science Olympiads.Winning national teams then get the opportunity to take part in the International Science Olympiads which are held in a different country every year.These events are all interesting for the young people who take part but they only involve a small proportion of students who are already interested in science.It seems that there is a long way to go before science becomes attractive as subjects like computer studies or fashion and design. 1 Most people have similar ideas of what a physicist looks like. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 2 The majority of physicists in Britain today are Cambridge graduates A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 3 The media and the cinema have played a role in promoting the image of the mad scientist. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 4 There will be more women scientists than men scientists in.the future A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 5 More children will study science if it becomes more attractive. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 6 The image of the mad scientist is really encouraging to society. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 7 The International Science Olympiads are held once every two years.

| 第64、65、66、67、68、69、70题： Help Your Child Become a Reader Encouraging early reading skills can build a path to a lifelong （终身的） love of reading and can help your child get a head start in school.While reading to your child is still the most important thing you can do to build reading skills,there are many techniques that can help. Make reading fun.Play games with your child as you read.Many traditional children's games can be adapted to encourage reading skills. While reading or during play,tell your child,"Ispy with my little eye,something that begins with the letter "b".Help the child find something on the page or in the room that begins with that letter.For example,"Isee a barn." This can also be used to teach beginning letter sounds."Ispy with my little eye something that begins with the sound 〝s〞。Help the child find a word that begins with the "s" sound. In this variation on the popular game,instruct the child that,"Simon says,point to something that starts with the letter "n" The child can then find an object in the room or a body part,such as the nose,that starts with the letter presented.This can also be used to teach beginning sounds. Make a game out of rhyming （押韵） words by making up silly words to rhyme with the child's name or favorite toys.This sets the stage for rhyming real words by showing the child the similarities of sounds.As the child masters making up the words,begin rhyming real words to one another. Tips to raise a successful reader： Put books in places where the child plays.If books are easily accessible,children are more likely to pick them up. Let children "read to you" by looking at pictures.Making up stories to go along with illustrations helps children discover how words relate to pictures. Take books along on trips or even short visits to the doctor's office or grocery store. Have children help you shop.Reading grocery lists and looking for specific items helps build sight vocabulary. 16 A good reading habit can help your child do well at school. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 17 Computer games can be used to help children develop their reading skills. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 18 One of the useful games is to play spy. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 19 When playing a game you should ask your child to find something starting with the letter b instead of c. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 20 The purpose of the rhyming games is to make preparations for children to write poems. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 21 You can ask your child to tell stories based on pictures. A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 22 You should take books with you when you go out with your child A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned |
