| America is a country on the move. In unheard of number, people of all ages are exercising their way to better health. According to the latest figures, 59 percent of American adults exercise regularly-up 12 percent from just two years ago and more than double the figure of 25 years ago. Even non-exercisers believe they would be more attractive and confident if they were more attractive. It is hard not to get the message. The advantage of physical fitness are shown on magazine covers, postage stamps, and television ads for everything from beauty soaps to travel books. Exercise as a part of daily life did not catch on until the 1960s when research by military doctors began to show the health benefits of doing regular physical exercises. Growing publicity for races held in American cities helped increase a strong interest in the ancient sport of running. Although running has leveled off in recent years as Americans have discovered equally rewarding-and something safer-forms of exercise, such as walking and swimming, running remains the most popular form of exercise. As the popularity of exercise continues to increase, so does scientific evidence of its health benefits. The key to fitness is exercising the major muscle group strongly enough to double the heart rate and keep it doubled for 20 to 30 minutes at a time. Doing such physical exercises three times or more a week will produce considerable improvements in physical health in about three months. |

| It was Molly's job to hand her father his brown paper lunch bag each morning before he headed off to work. One morning, in addition to his usual lunch bag, Molly handed him a second paper bag. This one was worn and held together with staples (书钉). "Why two bags?" Her father asked. "The other is something else," Molly answered. "What's in it?" "Just some stuff (东西). Take it with you." Not wanting to discuss the matter, he put both sacks into his briefcase, kissed Molly and rushed off. At midday he opened Molly's bag and took out the contents: two hair ribbons, three small stones, a plastic dinosaur, a tiny sea shell, a small doll, and 13 pennies…The busy father smiled, finished eating, and swept the desk clean into the wastebasket, Molly's stuff included. That evening, Molly ran up behind him as he read the paper. "Where's my bag?" "What bag?" "The one I gave you this morning." "I left it at the office. Why?" "I forgot to put this note in it," she said. "And, besides, Daddy, the things in the sack are the things I really like. I thought you might like to play with them. You didn't lose the bag, did you, Daddy?" "Oh, no," he said, lying. "I just forgot to bring it home. I'll bring it tomorrow." While Molly hugged her father's neck, he unfolded the note that read:"I love you, Daddy." Molly had given him her treasures-all that a 7-year-old held dear. Love in a paper bag, and he missed it-not only missed it, but had thrown it in the wastebasket. So back he went to the office. Just ahead of the night Janitor (看门人), he picked up the bag from the wastebasket. He put the treasure inside and carried it home carefully. The bag didn't look so good, but the stuff was all there and that's what counted. After dinner, he asked Molly to tell him about the stuff in the sack. It took a long time to tell. Everything had a story or a memory. "Sometimes I think of all the great times in this sweet life," he thought. We should all remember that it's not the destination that counts in life, but the journey. That journey with the people we love is all that really matters. It is such a simple truth but it is so easily forgotten. |

| Most American kids love Halloween treats, but a bucket of Halloween candy can be a dentist's nightmare. Some parents try to get rid of half of the candy after their children go to bed, but dentists say parents also need to separate the good kinds of treats from the bad. It is not exactly what a child eats that truly matters, but how much time it stays in his mouth. According to pediatric dentists Dr Kaneta Lott, the most damaging stuff is something that is sticky or very hard and thus stays in the mouth for a long time. This is because we all have bacteria in our mouths. When we eat, the bacteria take our food as their food and produce an acid that destroys the surface of the teeth, causing cavities to form. The longer the food stays in the mouth, the more likely cavities will develop. Therefore, potato chips are worse than candy because they get stuck between teeth. For the same reason, raisins and crackers are not the best choice. Hard candies take a long time to consume and are also a bad choice for Halloween treats. If children really love candy, dentists recommend that they eat chocolate instead. Unlike hard candies, chocolate dissolves quickly in the mouth. Besides, chocolate contains tannins, which help to kill some of the bacteria in the mouth. But no matter what a child eats, brushing after each meal is still the best way to fight cavities. |
| 1. What is the main purpose of this passage? |
|
[ ] |
| A. To discuss how cavities can be treated. B. To point out the problems with Halloween celebrations. C. To tell parents what sweets are less damaging to their children's teeth. D. To teach parents the meaning of Halloween candies for their children. |
| 2. Why are hard candies especially bad for teeth? |
|
[ ] |
| A. They may break the child's teeth. B. They help bacteria to produce tannins. C. They contain too much sugar. D. They stay in the mouth for a long time. |
| 3. According to the passage, which of the following is a better choice for Halloween treats? |
|
[ ] |
| A. Chocolate B. Crackers C. Raisins D. Potato chips |
| 4. According to the passage, which of the following is true of tannins? |
|
[ ] |
| A. They are produced when the bacteria digest the food. B. They help to get rid of some bacteria in the mouth. C. They help chocolate to dissolve more quickly. D. They destroy the surface of the teeth. |

| Well-done on an Exam Do not underestimate the power of revision in the days and hours before an examination. The closer you are to the exam, the more chance you have of storing and attaining key information. But do not overdo it. 1______ An effective daily routine can help you through an exam period, so in the days leading up to your first exam, get into the habit of being up and read to work. It can be a shock to the system after months of working to your own timetable to be mentally alert at that time if you have not prepared for it. On the day of the exam, have a good breakfast, pack everything you need ( pens, pencils, erasers, etc), then make your way to the examination hall in good time. 2______ Once in your seat, simply pause for a few seconds and collect your thoughts. Close your eyes and take in a few slow, deep breaths to help you relax. When you turn over the test paper, spend a short period reading through all the instructions and questions, paying particular attention to key verbs such as "discuss", "compare" and "evaluate". 3______ It is always wise to allow 10 minutes at the end of the exam to give yourself time to go back over your answers. Once you have selected the questions you wish to tackle, begin by attempting the one you think is your strongest. It will give you more confidence when you see a well-answered question down on paper. Also remember to write clearly, and do not be afraid to express the unexpected: after all, examiners can get very bored marking stereotypical (模式化的) answers. 4______ If you need something else to focus on to help you collect your thoughts, choose a fixture in the room, such as the ceiling or anything else that will not allow you to be distracted. Finally, once you have finished, never hang around outside afterwards to attend the discussion by other students. 5______ |
| A. Try not to look at those around you, or at the clock. B. When you get home, read the examination paper through and look up the other words you didn't understand. C. Sleep, exercise and relaxation are all just as important. D. Map out a quick plan of points you wish to make and how much time you should spend on each question. E. Go and have a well-earned rest---then prepare the next exam. F. Do not arrive too early, though, as other people's anxiety can be contagious (传染性的), and you may suffer from undue panic. G. If possible, you can arrive early and communicate with those worried students and help them overcome their anxiety. |

| I often quarrel about my mother over whether I can surf the Internet after school. She holds view that Senior Two students have to make fully use of every minute to work hard at their lessons. It seems to me that once I am allowed to do that, I'll unable to control myself and forget all about my study. She also thinks it is bad for my eye. But I really can't accept her ideas. In my opinion, surf the Internet can set my mind at rest after a day hard work. Besides, it is important for us to know what had happened at home and at abroad. Thus, we shouldn't be forbidden to surf the net. ________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________ |
