Have you ever trained your brain? Now there are some new suggestions, such as eating dark chocolate and having cold meat for breakfast. You should also avoid watching soap operas, spending time with people who complain or follow fat-free diets, according to a new book on getting “brain-fit”.
Many of the suggestions in Teach Yourself Training Your Brain are surprising. The book says to read out loud while holding a baby. Writers Terry Horne and Simon Wotton say their advice is from the latest research by experts around the world.
“For years we have thought our brain capability is decided by our genes. But it’s now clear that it depends on our l ifestyle. What we eat and drink, how we learn at school and what type of feelings we have are all important,” said Horne.
The book talks about the most up-to -date thinking in science about how diet, the environment, stress and other sides of modern life affect our brain capacity. It also offers advice and exercises. The book comes as more and more people are spending money on books, DVDs and computer games, which can improve their brain’s capability.
Horne believes that people need to make changes to their lifestyles to increase their brain capacity. Happiness, confidence and an optimistic nature help the brain, he added.
“So mix with people who make you laugh, or share the same interests as you. And avoid people who complain,” said Horne. “People who are n egative will make you sad, which means you won’t achieve things.”
29. According to the book, which of the following isn’t good for training your brain?
A. Doing some brain games.
B. Eating dark chocolate.
C. Having cold meat for breakfast.
D. Watching soap operas.
30. What’s Horne’s attitude toward the brain capability?
A. It depends on what our genes are like.
B. It’s decided by our lifestyle.
C. It has nothing to do with schools.
D. It should follow the type of our feelings.
31. What's the book Teach Yourself Training Your Brain mainly about?
A. How people’s brain capability works.
B. Exercises to improve brain capability.
C. Some scientific and healthy diets.
D. How to improve people’s brain capability.
32. From the underlined sentence, we can learn that ________.
A. more and more people are interested in reading
B. books can help people improve their brain capability
C. people are paying more attention to training their brain
D. there are many ways to train people’s brain
D
It is a cold and dry winter morning. When you wake up, you feel that your throat hurts. You begin to sneeze and later you may cough. You must have a cold! Wait a moment. Could it just be a common cold or the flu that’s been going around?
A cold gives you a runny no se and cough. But it’s usually easy to deal with. Some take medicine while others drink herbal tea or chicken soup. Usually you feel better after a week.
On the other hand, the flu can be much more dangerous. It usually gives you fever.
Sometimes it can cause death. According to an American magazine, the worst flu killed about 50 million people from 1918 to 1919.
Don’t worry. If you get a flu vaccine（疫苗）, it can stop you from getting the virus. Flu vaccines work by giving the body a small amount of flu viruses. This causes your body to develop antibodies. So next time you get the flu, the antibodies should help you.
The flu virus changes every few years. Therefore, there are so many types of flu, such as H1N1 and H5N1. The antibodies for one type of flu can't help us against all types of flu. That’s why we need to get vaccine every year.
However, good health habits may also help stop you developing a cold or flu.
Washing your hands often helps stop you from getting viruses. It is also important to get regular exercise and eat healthy food. All these can help you strengthen your immune system.
33. According to the passage, which is TRUE of the flu?
A. It first happened in 1919.
B. It usually doesn’t give you fever.
C. It is easy to deal with.
D. It can kill people sometimes.
34. If you get a flu vaccine, ________.
A. it can’t stop you from getting the flu virus
B. it won’t cause your body to develop antibodies
C. your body will develop antibodies
D. your body will get a large amount of flu viruses
35. We need to get a flu vaccine every year because ________.
A. we probably have a cold in winter
B. the flu virus changes every few years
C. the flu is very dangerous
D. you don’t need to take any medicine after that

第二节书面表达（共25分）
One possible version:
Dear Tom,
How is it going these days? I keep wondering how you feel about your school life in Beijing. Have you got used to the life in China? Are you enjoying your life? I hope you are.
Let me tell you a piece of good news: I’m going to take part in an English speech contest of middle school students in July in the coming summer vacation. So I’m busy preparing for it. But now I have some difficulty in collecting useful information and using proper English word to express my thoughts. Besides, I really want to improve my spoken English, especially the pronunciation and intonation. Of course, as a native English speaker, you can give me some suggestions.
In addition, I’m going to visit you after the contest. I’m sure we will have a wonderful time together in Beijing! I can hardly wait to see you! I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua。
