         That our students rarely get the opportunity to use their imagination was an open secret among Chinese
    people. Now,a global survey has brought it to the notice of the rest of the world. 
         The survey covering 21 countries, conducted by International Educational Progress Evaluation
    Organization, showed Chinese students excelled at math, beating their peers from other countries. But when
    it came to using their imagination, they were tied for the last place. And in creativity, they were fifth from
    the bottom.
         The survey results are not shocking, given the way our children are taught in schools and at home. But
    they are a severe reminder to our educators and parents to improve their ways.
         Chinese students rarely get the time or chance to use their imagination. Right from the day they enter
    school they are pushed into a culture of exams and more exams.
         Teachers and parents teach them that education is all about passing these exams with flying colors. And
    to pass those exams, they are made to learn by fixed standard answers. Teachers dare not encourage students
    to think outside the box. Teachers don't like students questioning them, killing the curiosity of the young
    minds. For children, there's hardly any room for bright ideas either in class or at home.
         Israel shares the values of education with China. But there is a world of difference between the way Israeli
    parents treat their children and we do. Israeli parents do not mollycoddle their children. Instead, they
    encourage them to learn how to live independently. In contrast, Chinese parents go to extremes, allowing their
    children to do whatever they like to do and punishing them severely the next for committing a "mistake".
         The global study should make us swing into action and help our students to throw open their young minds
    to imagination and creativity. It is time our education officials and educators asked themselves what they
    should do to let our children's imagination and creativity blossom.
    1. Based on the text, the creativity of the Chinese students ranks _____ among the 21 countries.
    A. the 5th
    B. the 17th
    C. the 2lst
    D. the 1st
    2. Why is the imagination of the Chinese students so poor?
    A. Their parents often improve their educational ways.
    B. They are thought to be lacking in curiosity.
    C. Their teachers are afraid of being questioned.
    D. They are not encouraged to imagine both at home and in class.
    3. What does the underlined word "mollycoddle" probably mean in Paragraph 6?
    A. spoil
    B. motivate
    C. appreciate
    D. scold
    4. It can be learned from the text Israeli parents _____.
    A. lay much more emphasis on education than Chinese ones
    B. allow their children to live in whatever way they like
    C. focus more attention on developing their children's living ability
    D. encourage their children to commit mistakes in lives
    5. Israel is introduced in the text mainly _____.
    A. to enrich the content of the text
    B. to support and advocate Israel education
    C. to illustrate the disadvantages of Chinese education
    D. to criticize the wrong behavior of Chinese parents

        According to a recent survey on money and relationships, 36% of people are keeping
    a bank account from their partner. While this financial unfaithfulness may appear as
    distrust in a relationship, in truth it may just be a form of financial protection. With
    almost half of all marriages ending in divorce, men and women are realizing they need to
    be financially savvy, regardless of whether they are in a relationship.
        The financial hardship on individuals after a divorce can be extremely difficult,
    even more so when children are involved. The lack of permanency in relationships, job and
    family life may be the cause of a growing trend to keep a secret bank account hidden from
    a partner, in other words, an "escape fund".
        Margaret's story is far from unique. She is a representative of a growing number of
    women in long-term relationships who are becoming protective of their own earnings. Every
    month on pay day, she banks hundreds of dollars into a savings account she keeps from her
    husband. She has been doing this throughout their six-year marriage and has built a nest
    egg worth an incredible $100,000. Margaret says if her husband found about her secret
    savings he'd be hurt and would take this as a sign that she wasn't sure of the marriage.
    "He'd think it was my escape fund so that financially I could afford to get out of the
    relationship if it went wrong. I know you should approach marriage as being forever and
    I hope ours is, but you can never be sure." Like many of her fellow secret savers,
    Margaret was hurt in a former relationship and has since been very guarded about her own
    money.
        Coming clean to your partner about being a secret saver may not be all that bad. Taken
    Colleen for example, who had been saving secretly for a few years before she confessed to
    her partner. "I decided to open a savings account and start building a nest egg of my own.
    I wanted to prove to myself that I could put money in the bank and leave it there for a
    rainy day."
    1. The trend to keep a secret bank account is growing because _____.
    A. "escape fund" helps one through rainy days
    B. days are getting harder and harder
    C. women are money sensitive
    D. financial conflicts often occur
    2. The word "savvy" (Line4, Para1) probably means _____.
    A. suspicious
    B. secure
    C. wise
    D. simple
    3. Which inference can we make about Margaret?
    A. She is a unique woman.
    B. She was once divorced.
    C. She is going to retire.
    D. She has many children.
    4. The author mentions Colleen's example to show _____.
    A. any couple can avoid marriage conflicts
    B. privacy within marriage should be respected
    C. everyone can save a fortune with a happy marriage
    D. financial disclosure is not necessarily bad
    5. Which of the following is the best summary of this passage?
    A. Secret Savers
    B. Love Is What It's Worth
    C. Banking Honesty
    D. Once Bitten, Twice Shy 65.

         A new study indicates that combining aerobics (有氧运动) and weight lifting can help people with Type 2
    diabetes (糖尿病) keep their blood sugar levels under control.
         Most people probably think of diabetes control in terms of diet or insulin (胰岛素), but Dr. Tim Church
    says exercise can play a big role.
         "If you look at what diabetes is, it's the failure of the body to manage the blood sugar, and the biggest
    consumer of blood sugar in the human body is skeletal (骨骼) muscle," he says." So if you keep skeletal
    muscle happy, it's chewing up blood sugar 24 hours a day."
         Church says most previous studies looked at the impact on diabetes of one kind of exercise only-typically
    aerobic exercise, like walking or bicycling. So he and his colleagues recruited (招募) more than 250 patients
    with diabetes and randomly assigned them to an aerobic exercise group, a weightlifting group, a group that did
    both kinds of exercise, or a control group that had no organized exercise program.
         After nine months, he said, the results were clear.
         "And for everything we looked at, but in particu1ar related to hemoglobin (血红蛋白) A1C-that represents
    blood sugar control-the group that did both the walking and the resistance training, or weight lifting, did by far
    the best."
         Church said he expected that the group that did both kinds of exercise would do better, but he was
    surprised by how much better they did-not just on controlling blood sugar, but on other relevant measures as
    well, like weight. He said different kinds of exercise affect the body differently, especially the big muscles that
    are fueled by blood sugar.
         "Skeletal muscle is so important for your health, and that's particularly true in individuals with diabetes," he
    explained."And aerobic exercise affects skeletal muscle through one set of mechanisms(机制), and the
    weight-lifting affects skeletal muscles through a completely different set of mechanisms. So when you
    combine aerobic plus the weight-lifting, you're doubling the opportunity for benefit."

    1. Which of the following is true of diabetes?
    A. The body fails to manage the blood sugar.
    B. It can be controlled only through diet or insulin.
    C. Skeletal muscles can't consume blood sugar.
    D. People with type 2 diabetes are too fat.
    2. Dr.Church was surprised that _____.
    A. the group doing both kinds of exercise just controlled blood sugar
    B. his colleagues recruited so many people in his experiment
    C. the result of his experiment was far beyond his expectation
    D. the group doing both kinds of exercise just controlled weight
    3. What does the underlined phrase "the resistance training" refer to?
    A. aerobics
    B. walking
    C. bicycling
    D. weight-lifting
    4. According to the text, we can learn that _____.
    A. all the experiment groups have an organized exercise program
    B. different kinds of exercise affect the body the same way
    C. skeletal muscles are important only for individuals with diabetes
    D. aerobics and weight-lifting affect skeletal muscles in a different way
    5. The text is most probably a _____.
    A. science fiction story
    B. science health report
    C. newspaper advertisement
    D. book review

         [1] Queuing, warm beer and afternoon tea-what do they have in common? They are all part of British life.
    Or so I thought. However, the ability to queue for long periods of time, once believed to be a typical traditional
    characteristic of the British, is no longer tolerated by people in the UK, according to a survey done by the
    Payments Council. It would seem they are no longer prepared to wait in line.
         [2] Once upon a time, queuing was seen as normal. During the second World War, everyone had to queue
    up to receive their daily ration (配给) of foods. In fact, if you didn't stand up and wait in line with all the others,
    it was uncivilized (不文明).The famous English double-decker buses, with only one entrance, might also help
    explain why queuing was seen as a part of life. Almost always, there is a queue to get on.
         [3] But perhaps the British are tired of being pushed by the Spanish, the Italians or the French as they
    queue up to get a table at a restaurant. The people of these other European countries have more than one
    entrance to their buses, which could explain their more relaxed attitude to the queue.
         [4] Two minutes is now the longest time most British are prepared to stand and wait. But could it be that
    the Internet, which allows us to carry out tasks quickly, is the main reason why British people are no longer
    prepared to queue? As the Internet has become more popular among shoppers, impatience with queuing has
    increased.
         [5] "Used to buying without delay, customers are even abandoning purchases rather than wait their turn,"
    says Stuart Neal of Barclaycard. "Shoppers are also less likely to queue for longer if the item they are buying
    is of low value." Perhaps I will have to replace "queuing" with"impatience" in my list of things I associate with
    the British.
