This in a city that requires school cafeterias to serve organic meals. Great, I thought, organic lunch, toxic campus.Since December, when the report came out, the mayor, neighborhood activists（活跃分子）and various parent-teacher associations have engaged in a fierce battle over its validity: over the guilt of the steel-casting factory on the western edge of town, over union jobs versus children’s health and over what, if anything, ought to be done. With all sides presenting their own experts armed with conflicting scientific studies, whom should parents believe? Is there truly a threat here, we asked one another as we dropped off our kids, and if so, how great is it? And how does it compare with the other, seemingly perpetual health scares we confront, like panic over lead in synthetic athletic fields? Rather than just another weird episode in the town that brought you protesting environmentalists, this latest drama is a trial for how today’s parents perceive risk, how we try to keep our kids safe—whether it’s possible to keep them safe—in what feels like an increasingly threatening world. It raises the question of what, in o ur time, ―safe‖ could even mean.―There’s no way around the uncertainty,‖ says Kimberly Thompson, president of Kid Risk, a nonprofit group that studies children’s health. ―That means your choices can matter, but it also means you aren’t going to know if they do.‖ A 2004 report in the journal Pediatrics explained that nervous parents have more to fear from fire, car accidents and drowning than from toxic chemical exposure. To which I say: Well, obviously. But such concrete hazards are beside the point. It’s the dangers parents can’t—and may never—quantify that occur all of sudden. That’s why I’ve rid my cupboard of microwave food packed in bags coated with a potential cancer-causing substance, but although I’ve lived blocks from a major faultline(地质断层) for more than 12 years, I still haven’t bolted our bookcases to the living room wall.26. What does a recent investigation by USA Today reveal?A) Heavy metals in lab tests threaten children’s health in Berkeley.B) Berkeley residents are quite contented with their surroundings.C) The air quality around Berkeley’s school campuses is poor.D) Parents in Berkeley are over-sensitive to cancer risks their kids face.27. What response did USA Today’s report draw?A) A heated debate.B) Popular support.C) Widespread panic.D) Strong criticism.28. How did parents feel in the face of the experts’ studies?A) They felt very much relieved.B) They were frightened by the evidence. C) They didn’t know who to believe.D) They weren’t convinced of the results.29. What is the view of the 2004 report in the journal Pediatrics?A) It is important to quantify various concrete hazards.B) Daily accidents pose a more serious threat to children.C) Parents should be aware of children’s health hazards.D) Attention should be paid to toxic chemical exposure.30. Of the dangers in everyday life, the author thinks that people have most to fear from__________.A) the uncertainB) the quantifiableC) an earthquakeD) unhealthy foodPassage TwoCrippling health care bills, long emergency-room waits and the inability to find a primary care physician just scratch the surface of the problems that patients face daily.Primary care should be the backbone of any health care system. Countries with appropriate primary care resources score highly when it comes to health outcomes and cost. The U.S. takes the opposite approach by emphasizing the specialist rather than the primary care physician.A recent study analyzed the providers who treat Medicare beneficiaries（老年医保受惠人）. The startling finding was that the average Medicare patient saw a total of seven doctors—two primary care physicians and five specialists—in a given year. Contrary to popular belief, the more physicians taking care of you don’t guarantee better care. Actually, increasing fragmentation of care results in a corresponding rise in cost and medical errors. How did we let primary care slip so far? The key is how doctors are paid. Most physicians are paid whenever they perform a medical service. The more a physician does, regardless of quality or outcome, the better he’s reimbursed (返还费用). Moreover, the amount a physician receives leans heavily toward medical or surgical procedures. A specialist who performs a procedure in a 30-minute visit can be paid three times more than a primary care physician using that same 30 minutes to discuss a patient’s disease. Combine this fact with annual government threats to indiscriminately cut reimbursements, physicians are faced with no choice but to increase quantity to boost income.Primary care physicians who refuse to compromise quality are either driven out of business or to cash-only practices, further contributing to the decline of primary care.Medical students are not blind to this scenario. They see how heavily the reimbursement deck is stacked against primary care. The recent numbers show that since 1997, newly graduated U.S. medical students who choose primary care as a career have declined byHow do we fix this problem?It starts with reforming the physician reimbursement system. Remove the pressure for primary care physicians to squeeze in more patients per hour, and reward them for optimally (最佳地) managing their diseases and practicing evidence-based medicine. Make primary care more attractive to medical students by forgiving student loans for those who choose primary care as a career and reconciling the marked difference between specialist and primary care physician salaries.We’re at a point where primary care is needed more than ever. Within a few years, the first wave of the 76 million Baby Boomers will become eligible for Medicare. Patients older than 85, who need chronic care most, will rise by 50% this decade.Who will be there to treat them?31. The author’s chief concern about the current U.S. health care system is __________.A) the inadequate training of physiciansB) the declining number of doctorsC) the shrinking primary care resourcesD) the ever-rising health care costs32. We learn from the passage that people tend to believe that __________.A) the more costly the medicine, the more effective the cureB) seeing more doctors may result in more diagnostic errorsC) visiting doctors on a regular basis ensures good healthD) the more doctors taking care of a patient, the better33. Faced with the government threats to cut reimbursements indiscriminately, primary care physicians have to __________ .A) increase their income by working overtimeB) improve their expertise and serviceC) make various deals with specialistsD) see more patients at the expense of quality34. Why do many new medical graduates refuse to choose primary care as their career?A) They find the need for primary care declining.B) The current system works against primary care.C) Primary care physicians command less respect.D) They think working in emergency rooms tedious.35. What suggestion does the author give in order to provide better health care?A) Bridge the salary gap between specialists and primary care physicians.B) Extend primary care to patients with chronic diseases.C) Recruit more medical students by offering them loans.第一册（15单元）答题纸《综合英语》6. 7. 8. 9. 10.Ⅱ.

It was her father who laid down the rules in her family and th ere was never any appeal, any second chance. After protracted discussion and her repeated pleas she had been allowed this weekly visit to the disco run by the church youth club, provided she caught the nine-forty bus without fail. It’d put her down at the “Crown an d Anchor” at Cobb’s marsh, only fifty yards from her cottage. From ten fifteen her father would begin watching for the bus to pass the front room where he and her mother woul d sit half-watching the television, the curtains drawn back. Whatever the programme or w eather, he would then put on his coat and come out to walk the fifty yards to meet her, keeping her always in sight. Since the Norfolk Whistler had begun his killings, her father had an added justification for the mild domestic tyranny which she half-realized, he thou ght right in dealing with his only child and rather enjoyed. The concordat had been early established：“You do right by me, my girl, and I’ll do right by you.”She both loved him and slightly feared him and she dreaded his anger. Now there would be one of those aw ful rows in which she knew she couldn’t hope to look to her mother for support. It woul d be the end of her Friday evenings with Wayne and Shirl and the gang. Already they te ased and pitied her because she was treated like a child. Now it would be total humiliati on.Her final desperate thought was to hire a taxi and chase the bus, but she didn’t kn o w where the cab rank was and she hadn’t enough money; she was sure of that. She coul d go back to the disco and see if Wayne and Shirl and the gang between them could len d her enough. But Wayne was always skint (⾝⽆分⽂的)and Shirl too mean and by the t ime she had argued and cajoled(哄骗)it would be too late.1. What was the girl’s problem now?A. The bus was lateB. She was late for the nine-forty busC. She was afraid to encounter the Norfolk WhistlerD. Her father would not come out to meet her on her way home2. Why did the girl think "This was the end"?A. She had seen the Norfolk Whistle comingB. She would never be able to get homeC. Her parents would give her a hard timeD. She would never be allowed to visit the disco again3. How long would it take her to get to the "Crown and Anchor"by bus?A. 40 minutes or soB. About half an hourC. Over an hourD. Hard to tell4. Which of the following statements is probably true?A. Her father had been strict with her ever since the Norfolk Whistler began his killi ngsB. Her father had always been strict with her since her childhoodC. She dreaded her father because he was always angry with herD. Whatever happened her mother always sided by her5. "She was sure of that."This means that she was sure___A. she could catch up with the bus if she took a taxiB. she could not borrow any money from either Wayne or ShirlC. she did not have enough money on her to hire a taxiD. she would never be able to get home in time2. Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these que stion is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of speci al education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other h and, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than onewho lives in rich and varied surrounding. Thus the limits of a person’s i ntelligence are f ixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. T he closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in in telligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likel y that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we ta ke two identical twins they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to university and the other to factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates th at environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who lives in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, ar e likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.1. Whi ch of these sentences best describes the writer’s point in Paragraph 1?A. To some extent, intelligence is given at birthB. Intelligence is developed by the environmentC. Some people are born clever and others born stupidD. Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment2. It is suggested in this passage that___.A. unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligenceB. close relation usually have similar intelligenceC. the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in intelligenceD. people who lived in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar d egrees of intelligence.3. Brothers and sisters are likely to___.A. have similar intelligenceB. have different intelligenceC. go to the same universityD. go to the same factory4. In Paragraph 1 (line 5), the word "surrounding"mean___.A. intelligenceB. lifeC. environmentsD. housing5. The best title for this article would be___.A. On IntelligenceB.

文章：In recent years, the popularity of electric vehicles (EVs) has surged due to environmental concerns and technological advancements. Governments around the world are promoting the use of EVs by offering incentives such as tax breaks and subsidies. However, the adoption of EVs is not without its challenges. One of the main concerns is the availability of charging infrastructure. While the number of chargingstations is increasing, it is still not sufficient to meet the growing demand. Additionally, the range anxiety, which is the fear of running out of battery power before reaching a charging station, is a significant barrier to the widespread adoption of EVs.问题：1. Why has the popularity of electric vehicles increased?2. What are some of the challenges faced by the adoption of electric vehicles?3. What is range anxiety, and why is it a concern for EV users?答案：1. The popularity of electric vehicles has increased due toenvironmental concerns and technological advancements.2. Some challenges faced by the adoption of electric vehicles include the availability of charging infrastructure and the fear of running out of battery power before reaching a charging station, known as range anxiety.3. Range anxiety is the fear of running out of battery power before reaching a charging station. It is a concern for EV users because it can limit the practicality of using an electric vehicle for long-distance travel.试题二：完形填空阅读下面的短文，从括号内所给的选项中选出最佳选项填入空白处。

Reading comprehension (30 points)Passage 1We have heard it repeatedly: most people do not get enough exercise. Yet when we look at our dogs, we can say we do not give them enough exercise either.Do dogs enjoy exercise? Of course they do. Just ask people who have asked their dog if he wants to go for a walk. What has happened from then on whenever they have said the word walk? Dogs usually get so excited about going for walks.The biggest issue about an exercise program for our dogs is getting them started. Never begin taking your under-exercised dog for extremely(极度的)long walks all of a sudden. Dogs, just like people, need to warm up before they start to exercise and they should start a program slowly.Walking is great exercise for you and your dog alike. What is important is that the walking becomes a routine and is done on a regular basis (经常地). Regular means twice a day or more if it is all right with you. If you are tired of walking and your dog still wants to continue, the playing a game with your dog or letting your dog go after a toy can finish the program for the day.To reduce any possible health risk, consider the following do’s and don’ts for exercising your dog:●Do warm your dog up with a gentle walk before starting any exercise.●Do have water available (可得到的)，but do not let him drink too much directly(马上)after a long walk.●Do make the exercise a routine event.●Don’t overdo it.●Don’t feed your dog immediately before or after exercise.●Don’t exercise your dog outside on the hottest part of a summer day or in very cold winterweather. (286 words )1. According to the passage, how do we know dogs enjoy exercise?A) Dogs, unlike people, don’t feel tired after vigorous exercise.B) Dogs exercise outdoors in the heat of summer and cold of winter.C) Dogs get excited when we exercise them by taking them on a walk, for exampleD) Dogs, those under-exercise included, can walk for extremely long hours.2. The biggest issue about an exercise program for our dogs is____________.A) warming them up B) chaining them upC) dressing them up D) feeding them up3. According to the writer, what is important about walking?A) It should be stopped once you feel tired.B) It should be started suddenly.C) It should be ended with a game or play.D) It should be done twice a day or more if possible.4. What should you do if you are tired of walking but your dog wants to continue?A) Walk it till it gets tired.B) Play a game with him instead.C) Let him walk alone.D) Go home immediately.5. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A) Dogs have better strength and endurance than humans.B) Dogs are energetic, so we can never over-exercise them.C) Dogs need more exercise than they get, but people don’t.D) Dogs should not be fed shortly before or after exercise.Passage2Most of us grow up taking certain things for granted. We tend to assume that experts and religious leaders tell us “the truth”. We tend to believe that things advertised o n television or in newspapers can’t be bad for us.However, encouragement of critical thinking in students is one of the goals of most colleges and universities. Few professors require students to share the professors’ own beliefs. In general, professors are more concerned that students learn to question and critically examine the arguments of others, including some of their own beliefs or values. This does not mean that professors insist that you change your beliefs, either. It does mean, however, that professors will usually ask you to support the views you express in class or in your writing.If your premises (前提)are shaky, or if your arguments are not logical, professors personally point out the false reasoning in your arguments. Most professors want you to learn to recognize the premises of your arguments, to examine whether you really accept these premises, and to understand whether or not you draw logical conclusions. Put it this way: Professors don’t tell you what to think; they try to teach you how to think.On the other hand, if you intend to disagree with your professors in class, you should be prepared to offer a strong argument in support of your ideas. Arguing just for the sake of arguing usually does not promote a critical examination of ideas. Many professors interpret it as rudeness.1. In the first paragraph, the writer tries to tell us that people ____.A. easily accept certain things without a second thoughtB. grow up through learning certain things in lifeC. are forming their views during their growthD. have strong beliefs in authorities while getting old2. Nowadays, most colleges and universities encourage students to _____.A. criticize othersB. share professors’ beliefsC. give their own ideasD. change their own beliefs3. The word “shaky” (Line l, Para.3) most probably means“____”.A.creativeB. firmC. falseD. weak4. To help students develop their critical thinking, professors mainly teach them ____.A. choice of their premisesB. the way to think independentlyC. skills of drawing conclusionsD. different kinds of argument5. According to the writer, the right way to argue is to ____.A. argue mainly for the sake of arguingB. prove it with a good conclusionC. support your idea with sound reasoningD. examine others’ ideas crit icallyPassage3Directions: Read the following passage and complete the information by filling in the blanks below. For each blank, you should write no more than 3 words. (每一空格填写单词不超过3个) There was once a man named Nyakundi who had several donkeys (驴). Every day Nyakundi would choose a donkey and load it with the goods he wanted to sell at the market that day. When they got to the village, Nyakundi would unload the goods form the donkey at the marketplace and wait for people to buy what he had brought.One day Nyakundi and his donkey stopped at Luo village and bought a load of salt. Then they went to Kisii village. This was where Nyakundi usually sold his goods, and he had noticed that no one in Kisii had any salt.On the way to Kissi, they crossed a shallow(浅的) river. The donkey slipped and fell into the water. When Nyakundi helped him up, most of the salt had dissolved(溶解) and washed away. Nyakundi promised himself that he would be more careful the next time.That night the donkeys were talking with each oth er at Nyakundi’s corral (畜栏). The donkey that had fallen into the stream told the others what had happened that day. “It was strange” said the donkey. “When I got up, the load I was carrying was much lighter than before. I think that I shallfall into the water on purpose (故意地) whenever I cross that river.” The other donkeys thought that was a clever idea.The next day Nyakundi chose a donkey and loaded its packs. Then they went to the Kisii market as usual. This donkey remembered what his friend had said the night before. When they reached the river, Nyakundi was careful with the donkey so that it would not slip. The donkey was stubborn and wanted to get wet. It stopped in the middle of the shallow river and kneeled (跪) until it was in water up to its neck. Then the donkey got up.Surprise! Nyakundi was not selling salt today. Today he was selling sponges (海绵). When the donkey had kneeled, the sponges had soaked (吸收) up water. Now the poor donkey’s load was twice as heave as before. (339 words)1.Every day a donkey was chosen to __________________ to sell at the market.2.When the donkey got up from the water, the load became ___________because the salt hadwashed away.3.Because he lost the goods, Nyakundi decided he would be ___________the next time.4.The donkey thought it was _______________ to fall into the water on purpose whenever theycross the river.5.The next day when the donkey got wet in the river, the load actually became _________because the sponge soaked up water.V.

For instance, animals’ cries do not 6 thoughts and feelings clearly. This means, basically, that they lack structure. They lack the kind of structure that 7 us to divide a human utterance into words.We can change an utterance by 8 one word in it with another: a good illustration of this is a soldier who can say, e.g., “tanks approaching from the west”; but a bird has a single alarm cry, which means “danger!”This is why the number of 9 that an animal can make is very limited: the great tit is a case in point; it has about twenty different calls, 10 in human language the number of possible utterances is limitless.

Choose the one that you think is the correct answer.Text oneA century ago in the United States, when an individual brought suit against a company,public opinion tended to protect that company. But perhaps this phenomenon was most striking in the case of the railroads. Nearly half of all negligence cases decided through 1896 involved railroads. And the railroads usually won.Most of the cases were decided in state courts, when the railroads had the climate of the times on their sides. Government supported the railroad industry; the progress railroads represented was not to be slowed down by requiring them often to pay damages to those unlucky enough to be hurt working for them.Court decisions always went against railroad workers. A Mr. Farwell, an engineer, lost his right hand when a switchman's negligence ran his engine off the track. The court reasoned that since Farwell had taken the job of an engineer voluntarily at good pay, he had accepted the risk. Therefore the accident, though avoidable had the switchmen acted carefully, was a "pure accident". In effect a railroad could never be held responsible for injury to one employee caused by the mistake of another.In one case where a Pennsylvania Railroad worker had started a fire at a warehouse and the fire had spread several blocks, causing widespread damage, a jury found the company responsible for all the damage. But the court overturned the jury's decision because it argued that the railroad's negligence was the immediate cause of damage only to the nearest buildings. Beyond them the connection was too remote to consider.As the century wore on, public sentiment began to turn against the railroads -- against their economic and political power and high fares as well as against their callousness toward individuals.1. Which of the following is NOT true in Farwell's case?A. Farwell was injured because he negligently ran his engine off the track.B. Farwell would not have been injured if the switchman had been more careful.C. The court argued that the victim had accepted the risk since he had willingly taken hisjob.D. The court decided that the railroad should not be held responsible.2. What must have happened after the fire case was settled in court?A. The railroad compensated for the damage to the immediate buildings.B. The railroad compensated for all the damage by the fire.C. The railroad paid nothing for the damaged building.D. The railroad worker paid for the property damage himself.3. The following aroused public resentment EXCEPT _____.A. political powerB. high faresC. economic lossD. indifference4. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Railroad oppressing individuals in the US.B. History of the US railroads.C. Railroad workers' working rights.D. Law cases concerning the railroads.Text twoHawaii's native minority is demanding a greater degree of sovereignty over its own affairs. But much of the archipelago's political establishment, which includes the White Americans who dominated until the second world war and people of Japanese, Chinese and Filipino origins, is opposed to the idea.The islands were annexed by the US in 1898 and since then Hawaii's native peoples have fared worse than any of its other ethnic groups. They make up over 60 percent of the state's homeless, suffer higher levels of unemployment and their life span is five years less than the average Hawaiians. They are the only major US native group without some degree of autonomy.But a sovereignty advisory committee set up by Hawaii's first native governor, Joahn Waihee, has given the natives' cause a major boost by recommending that the Hawaiian natives decide by themselves whether to re-establish a sovereign Hawaiian nation.However, the Hawaiian natives are not united in their demands. Some just want greater autonomy within the state -- as enjoyed by many American Indian natives over matters such as education. This is a position supported by the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA), a state agency set up in 1978 to represent the natives' interests and which has now become the moderate face of the native sovereignty movement. More ambitious is the Ka Lahui group, which declared itself a new nation in 1987 and wants full, official independence from the US.But if Hawaiian natives are given greater autonomy, it is far from clear how many people this will apply to. The state authorities only count as native those people with more than 50 percent Hawaiian blood.Native demands are not just based on political grievances, though. They also want their claim on 660,000 hectares of Hawaiian crown land to be accepted. It is on this issue that native groups are facing most opposition from the state authorities. In 1933, the state government paid the OHA US' 136 million in back rent on the crown land and many officials say that by accepting this payment the agency has given up its claims to legally own the land. The OHA has vigorously disputed this. 5. Hawaii's native minority refers to _____.A. Hawaii's ethnic groupsB. people of Filipino originC. the Ka Lahui groupD. people with 50% Hawaiian blood6. Which of the following is NOT true of John Waihee?A. He is Hawaii's first native governor.B. He has set up a sovereignty advisory committee.C. He suggested the native people decide for themselves.D. He is leading the local independence movement.7. Various native Hawaiians demand all the following EXCEPT _____.A. a greater autonomy within the stateB. more back rent on the crown landC. a claim on the Hawaiian crown landD. full independence from the USText threeThe worldwide consumption of bakery products is increasing. Many populations that formerly relied solely on rice or coarser grains as their main source of carbohydrates show a preference for compounded bakery products as new industry and increased incomes make them more widely accessible. Japan is an outstanding example of countries following this trend. The United States has shown a steady downward trend in per capita consumption of cereal-based foods for many years, and the consumption of sweet bakery foods, such as cakes or pastry, has been increasingly displacing bread consumption.Probably 95% of the white bread sold in the United States is enriched with thiamin, niacin, riboflavin, and iron, and about 30% of the 50 states have laws requiring white breadenrichment. Formerly, calcium and vitamin D were frequently added to enriched bread, but lack of consumer demand and questionable nutritional benefit led to gradual phasing out of these enrichments. India has attempted to encourage consumption of protein-enriched bread, with some success. Except for research projects, little has been done in other countries, however. In areas where bakery products comprise a large proportion of the diet, they could provide an ideal vehicle for nutritional supplementation. Then need for better quality protein in the daily diet occurs mostly in the developing countries, where carbohydrate foods -- usually cereals -- are the basic components of the diet and therefore the logical protein carriers.8.
