         Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in her life, she might go home and write in her diary. Now,

    Editor,
         Brockingham is run by people who are more interested in tourists than its residents. The problem is that
    the people running the government refuse to accept new ideas. By banning all fast-food restaurants and
    discount stores, they take away all the places kids can afford to shop.
         These people forget that when they were young, they could go to the South Street Soda Fountain and get
    an ice-cream soda for 25 cents. Today you can't find an ice-cream soda anywhere in Brockingham for less
    than $2! Where can kids go for a snack?
         There is not a single restaurant in Brockingham where a family of four can eat dinner for less than $100.
    Add a 15% tip and sales tax and you have spent nearly $125 to eat a meal you could prepare at home for
    about $12. Have you noticed that Brockingham families never dine in Brockingham?
         Fast-food restaurants are also a good place for school kids to get an after-school job. Fast-food restaurants
    are busiest during the early supper hours when students are able to work, whereas the fancy food restaurants
    cater to late-night diners. Working in one of these establishments requires working shifts that are too late for
    most students.
         The City Council claims that local merchants, rather than national chains, should benefit from the tourist
    business. I agree that it is important to support local businesses, but I think the fast-food restaurants would
    encourage more people to shop in Brockingham.
         Another thing that disturbs me is that we must travel 25 miles to the nearest discount store. If I need a
    tire for my bike, I have a choice of buying one at Surf and Peddle Sport Shop for $15 or driving to
    Parkersburg Discount Center where I can buy the some kind of tire for $9. Again, I think the ban on all food
    chains and discount houses is counterproductive for our city. Wes Woodrow 9th-Grade Student at
    Brockingham High School
    1. Why does Wes Woodrow write this letter to the editor?
    A. Because the government bans all fastfood restaurants and discount stores in Brockingham.
    B. Because the writer can't find an icecream soda anywhere in Brockingham for less than $2.
    C. Because a family of four can't find a restaurant in Brockingham to eat dinner for less than $100.
    D. Because the writer has to travel 25 miles to the nearest discount store.
    2. From the letter we can infer that _____.
    A. the writer used to buy a lot of icecream soda
    B. the students refuse to work in fancy food restaurants
    C. the government's ban benefits local merchants much
    D. discount stores usually offer a discount of 40%.
    3. The underlined word "counterproductive" in Paragraph 6 of the letter probably means _______.
    A. cheap, not expensive
    B. surprising, not expected
    C. harmful, not helpful
    D. doubtful, not sure
    4. One way the writer of this letter tries to convince the reader is by _____.
    A. complaining that someone has to drive him to Parkersburg
    B. getting an after-school job in fast-food restaurant himself
    C. suggesting that many businessmen have the same opinion
    D. giving specific examples of the high costs in Brockingham

         Celia was shocked. She had always been in good shape during high school, but now, in her first year
    of college, she was suddenly ten pounds heavier. "My friends and I often had pizza or ice cream when
    we studied late at night," she said, "and I was always drinking Coke to stay awake."
         Celia's experience is common. Many students enter college and find it so different that they cannot
    deal with changes properly. They're away from their parents and in a new stressful (压力的) environment.
    Pressures (压力) together with freedom to sleep and eat however they please cause many students to
    experience the "Freshman 15": gaining weight suddenly in their freshman year of college.
         Most students do not realize that the "Freshman 15" can cause some serious health problems. Of
    course, college-age adults are still developing bone mass,so gaining some weight is normal. Sudden weight
    gain, however, puts too much strain (负担) on the heart and lungs,resulting in little energy and some
    difficult thinking and remembering. In later life, it can lead to heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and possibly
    cancer.
         The solution to the"Freshman 15" is simple-pay attention to developing good habits! In general:
         ● Eat normal-sized meals at regular times. Eat slowly and enjoy it,so you don't need to go back for more. 
         ● Keep only healthy snacks in your room-and don't snack too often!
         ● Control drinking and smoking. Alcohol has a lot of calories, and smoking too much makes exercise
            difficult.
         ● Exercise regularly! Even just 30 minutes a day-such as walking quickly to class from your dorm-will
            make a big difference!
    1. What happened to Celia in her first year of college?
    A. She had sleep problems
    B. She put on weight suddenly
    C. She always studied late
    D. She went on diet so as to keep in good shape
    2. What do many students think of their freshman year of college?
    A. They find it quite different
    B. They find it not quite difficult
    C. They find it very free
    D. They find it simple
    3. What do most college students fail to realize?
    A. Gaining some weight is normal
    B. They have grown up
    C. They have gained a lot of weight
    D. Sudden weight gain may result in serious health problems
    4. What are students advised to do?
    A. Eat slowly and exercise regularly
    B. Eat all foods slowly and regularly
    C. Keep enough healthy snacks in the room
    D. Eat healthy snacks as much as possible

         If you don't want people to know too much about you, then you had better keep your fridge contents
    secret according to a British market research document released last week.
         Researchers peered (凝视) into the fridges of 400 people in Britain and compared the contents with the
    owners' lifestyles. They claim to be able to classify the nation's people by fridge contents.
         They say those people can be divided into five categories: "nutrition nerds", "food faddies", "martyr
    mums", "fast food fanatics" and "restaurant regulars".
         "Nutrition nerds" care much about what they put into their bodies. Their fridges are stocked with fruit,
    vegetables and healthy meat. People in this category tend to be highly organized and usually work in law or
    accountancy. The vast majority are single, but if they have a partner, that person will be similar.
         A fridge full of vitamins-enriched juices implies its owner works in media or fashion. They tend not to
    eat the foods they buy. Known as the "food faddies", they just want to be seen as buying the latest important
    things.
         A fridge filled with everything from steak to frozen fish suggests the "martyr mum". Her fridge tends to
    be stocked with every kind of product, except what she herself would want. This fridge hints at difficulty
    balancing family and work life.
         "Fast food fanatics" always buy mineral water for soda pop (汽水); the nearest they will get to fresh
    fruit is tomato sauce. Their fridges hint at someone who works hard and plays hard, also, someone who is
    not into long term planning.
         Finally, a fridge filled with nothing more than a bottle of white wine and some sparkling mineral water
    implies an owner who is single, lives in a big city and enjoys the finer things in life. The fridge is empty
    because this person regularly eats in restaurants.
    1. We can know from the first two paragraphs that _____.
    A. some researchers are fond of staring at other people's fridges
    B. people don't want others to know about their secrets
    C. the food you put in the fridge has something to do with your personality
    D. there are mainly five kinds of lifestyles among British people
    2. According to the passage, people who belong to "food faddies" _____.
    A. don't care much about money when buying things
    B. will try their best to stay healthy
    C. often stay up late to finish their job
    D. prefer to ask others about what to do next
    3. What will those who often dine out put in the fridge?
    A. All kinds of food they like.
    B. Only something to drink.
    C. Fruit, vegetables and meat.
    D. Food rich in vitamins.
    4. What might be the most suitable title for the text?
    A. Keep your fridge a secret.
    B. You are what's in your fridge.
    C. What to put in the fridge?
    D. Be careful about your fridge

         BEIJING-The handsome face and muscular figure of Lin Dan make him an ideal candidate for the big
    screen.
         However, the Chinese badminton superstar says any speculation about a career in the entertainment
    industry will have to wait until his on-court career ends.
         "Right now, I'm just focused on the 2012 Olympic Games. I will not think about the possibility of acting
    as long as I'm still able to play the sport," said 27-year-old Lin during a press conference on Sunday
    organized by razor (剃刀) brand Gillette.
         The reigning (占优势)Olympic and world champion is determined to hold on until the 2012 London
    Olympics, even though he achieved a grand slam (大满贯) by winning the Asian Games in Guangzhou.
          "I will try my best and hold on to play the 2012 Olympic Games," said Lin, who won the MVP Award
    at the Asian Games thanks to his men's single title and his overwhelming popularity with fans and the media.
          "I know it will be a tough two years. I know rising stars and old foes will come up and pose bigger
    threats during my preparation. But I'm ready to accept the challenge," 'Super Dan' said.
         The Asiad title was the only major crown missing from Lin's glittering resume, which includes one
    Olympic title and three consecutive world crowns.
          He said the pressure going into the Asiad was even greater than that at the 2008 Beijing Games.
         "I know lots of people expected me to pick up the title. There was big pressure on me," said Lin, who
    was upset by Indonesia's Hidayat Taufik in the Doha final four years ago."So when I did it, I felt more
    excited than when I won the Olympic title."
    1. From the passage we can know that _______.
    A. Lin Dan is fond of acting
    B. Lin Dan will work on entertainment and badminton at the same time
    C. Lin Dan has decided to take up badminton all his life.
    D. Lin Dan won't consider join in the entertainment industry before he retires
    2. We can infer that _______.
    A. many athletes are afraid of the new opponent (对手)
    B. Lin Dan will achieve his grand slam
    C. Lin Dan is prepared to face the 2012 Olympic Games
    D. Lin Dan beat Indonesia's Hidayat Taufik in 2006
    3. Which can probably replace the underlined word "speculation" in Paragraph 2?
    A. observation
    B. prediction
    C. contribution
    D. consideration
    4. Which statement is NOT true?
    A. Lin Dan has won all kinds of titles of badminton.
    B. The 2012 London Olympic Games had brought the biggest pressure to Lin Dan.
    C. Lin Dan's success is partly due to the popularity with fans and the media.
    D. Every year more new challengers will appear to compete with Lin Dan.

         For a clearer picture of what the student knows, most teachers use another kind of examination in
    addition to objective tests. They use "essay" tests, which require students to write long answers to broad,
    general questions such as the following: "Mention several ways in which Benjamin Franklin has influenced
    thinking of people in his own country and in other parts of the world."
         One advantage of the essay test is that it reduces the element of luck. The student cannot get a high
    score just by making a lucky guess. Another advantage is that it shows the examiner more cares about the
    student's ability to put facts together into a meaningful whole. It should show how deeply he has thought
    about the subject. Sometimes, though, essay tests have disadvantages, too. Some students are able to write
    rather good answers without really knowing much about the subject, while other students who actually
    know the material have trouble expressing their ideas in the essay form.
         Besides, in an essay test the student's score may depend upon the examiner's feelings at the time of
    reading the answer. If he is feeling tired or bored, the student may receive a lower score than he should.
    Another examiner reading the same answer might give it a much higher mark. Because of this, the objective
    test gives each student a fairer chance, and of course it is easier and quicker to score.
          Whether an objective test or an essay test is used, problems arise. When some objective questions are
    used along with some essay questions, however, a fairly clear picture of the student's knowledge can usually
    be gotten.
    1. What may have been discussed in the previous (先前的) paragraphs?
    A. The essay test.
    B. How teachers test their students.
    C. How students write their essays.
    D. The objective test.
    2. The essay test is preferred because _____.
    A. it shows more about the student's understanding of the subject
    B. it tests the student's knowledge of the material as well as his expression of ideas
    C. it gives each student a fairer chance
    D. its scoring may be influenced by the examiner's feelings
    3. The underlined word "this" in the third paragraph refers to the fact that _____.
    A. students may receive a lower score in an essay test
    B. another examiner usually gives the answer a higher mark
    C. different examiners may give the same essay different scores
    D. the objective test gives each student a fairer chance
    4. According to the passage, which of the following statements about the objective test is NOT true?
    A. It is more objective than the essay test in terms of scoring.
    B. It allows the students to guess the correct answer without really knowing the material.
    C. It shows the student's ability to think bout difficult problems.
    D. It is easy and quick to score.
