Each passage is followed by somequestions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter with asingle line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Internet use appears to cause a decline in psychological well-being, according to aresearch at Carnegie Mellon University.Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced moredepression and loneliness than those who logged on less frequently. And it wasn’ t that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that usingthe Net actually appeared to cause the bad feelings.Researchers are puzzling over the results, which were completely contrary to their expectations. They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television,since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others.The fact that Internet use reduces time available for family and friends may accountfor the drop in well-being, researchers hypothesized( 假定 ). Faceless, bodiless“ virtual”communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation, and the relationships formed through it may be shallower. Another possibility is that exposure tothe wider world via the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.“ But it’ s important to remember this is not about the technology,perse; it’ s about how it is used,” says psychologist Christine Riley of Intel.“ It really points to the need considering social factors in terms of how you design applications and services fortechnology. ”1.The best title for this passage would be __________.A. Internet May Cause DepressionB. The Dark Side of InternetC. How to Use Technology ProperlyD. The Importance of Psychological Well-being2.Internet use may cause a decline in psychological well-being because __________.A.people who were already feeling bad spend more time on the InternetB.Internet users thought the world was wider than it really wasC. people were too eager to turn the“ virtual” communication into realityD. people had less time for actual communication with their family andfriends 3. What does the Latin word per se“” (Line 1, Para. 5) mean?A. Probably.B. Absolutely.C. Oneself.D. Itself.4. The sentence“ It really points to⋯for technology-3,Para.. 5)”most(Lineprobably2 means __________.A. bad social effect does not indicate the technology is badB. we should design applications and services for technology according to theirsocial effectC. when we design technological applications and services, their social effectsshould be taken into accountD.social factors play an important part in designing applications and services fortechnology5.What ’ s the tone of the passage?A. Optimistic.B. Critical.C. Objective.D. Arbitrary.Passage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.Statuses are marvelous human inventions that enable us to get along with one another and to determine where we “ fit ” in society. As we go about our everyday lives, we mentally attempt to place people in terms of their statuses.For example, we mustjudge whether the person in the library is a reader or a librarian, whether the telephone caller is a friend or a salesman, whether the unfamiliar person on our property is a thief or a meter reader, and so on.The statuses we assume often vary with the people we encounter, and change throughout life. Most of us can, at very high speed, assume the statuses that various situations require. Much of social interactions consists of identifying and selecting among appropriate statuses and allowing other people to assume their statuses in relation to us. This means that we fit our actions to those of other people based on a constant mental process of appraisal and interpretation. Although some of us find the task more difficult than others, most of us perform it rather effortlessly.A status has been compared to ready-made clothes. Within certain limits the buyercan choose style and fabric. But an American is not free to choose the costume服(装 )of a Chinese peasant or that of a Hindu prince. We must choose from among theclothing presented by our society. Furthermore, our choice is limited to a size that will fit,as well as by our pocketbook (钱包 ). Having made a choice within these limits we canhave certain alterations made, but apart from minor adjustments, we tend to be limitedto what the stores have on their racks. Statuses too come ready made, and the range ofchoice among them is limited.6.In the first paragraph, the writer tells us that statuses can help us __________.A.determine whether a person is fit for a certain jobB.behave appropriately in relation to other peopleC.protect ourselves in unfamiliar situationsD.make friends with other people7.According to the writer, people often assume different statuses __________.A.in order to identify themselves with othersB.in order to better identify othersC.as their mental processes changeD.as the situation changes8.The word “ appraisal(Line ”6, Para.2)most probably means“ __________” .A. involvementB. appreciationC. assessmentD. presentation9.In the last sentence of the second paragraph, the pronou“ it” refers to“ __________”.A. fitting our actions to those of other people appropriatelyB. identification of other people’ s statusesC. selecting one ’ s own statusesD. constant mental process10.By saying that “ an American is not free to choosecostumeth of a Chinese peasantor that of a Hindu prince ”(Lines 2~3, Para.3), the writer means __________.A.different people have different styles of clothesB.ready-made clothes may need alterationsC.statuses come ready made just like clothesD.our choice of statuses is limitedPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.People born in autumn live longer than those born in spring and are less likely tofall chronically( 慢性 ) ill when they are older, according to an Austrian scientist. Usingcensus(人口统计) data for more than one million people in Austrian, Denmark and Australia, scientists at the Max Plank Institute for Demographic(人口统计的 ) Researchfound the month of birth was related to life expectancy over the age of 50. Seasonal differences in what mothers ate during pregnancy, and infections occurring at differenttimes of the year could both have an impact on the health of a new-born baby and could influence its life expectancy in older age. “A mother giving birth in spring spends the last stage of her pregnancy in winter, when she will eat less vitamins than in summer,” said one of the scientists. “When she stops breast-feeding and starts giving her baby normal food, it ’s in the hot weeks of summer when babies are inclined to infections of the digestive system.”In Austria, adults born in autumn lived about seven months longer than those born in spring, and in Denmark adults with birthdays in autumn outlived those born in spring by about four months. In the southern hemisphere, the picture is similar. Adults born in the Australian autumn lived about four months longer than those born in the Australian spring. The study focused on people born at the beginning of the 20th century, using death certificates and census data. Although nutrition at all times of the year has improved since then, the seasonal pattern persists.11.The passage is mainly about ________.A.how the month of birth is related to life expectancyB.how the seasonal pattern affects the health of new-born babiesC.how nutrition in different seasons influences life expectancyD.why people born in autumn are free from chronic illness12.People born in autumn live longer than those born in spring because ________.A.a mother giving birth in spring has less nutrition during her pregnancyB.a mother giving birth in autumn eats more vitamins during the last stage of herpregnancyC.A baby born in spring receives no protection from infectionsD.a baby born in autumn is never subject to any infections13.The term “life expectancy” Line( 4) refers to ________.A.the length of time for each personB. the expectations of a person’s lifeC.the seasonal changes in a person’ lifeD.the average period that a person may expect to live14.Which of the following terms is EXCLUDED from the scientists’DemographicResearch?A.Statistics of births.B.Statistics of deaths.C. Statistics of breast-feeding.D. Statistics of diseases.15.The last sentence of the passage implies that ________.A.the seasonal pattern has an impact on food valuesB.the seasonal pattern determines a person’life expectancyC.the seasonal pattern still influences life expectancy even if nutrition improves atall times of the yearD. the seasonal pattern will not change even if nutrition has improved much inmodern agePart Ⅶ WritingA.

This unit aims to improve our ability to understand and interpret texts. We will learn techniques to enhance our reading speed, as well as strategies for effective comprehension.Reading Techniques:1. Skimming: Skimming is a technique used to quickly get an overall idea of a text. When skimming, we should focus on headings, subheadings, and the first and last sentences of each paragraph. Skimming helps us to understand the main topic and organization of a passage.2. Scanning: Scanning involves searching a text for specific information. To scan effectively, we should have a clear idea of what we are looking for and use keywords to quickly locate the relevant information.3. Predicting: Predicting is a skill that helps us anticipate what will come next in a text. We can make predictions based on the title, pictures, or our prior knowledge. This strategy activates our background knowledge and prepares us for the main ideas in the text.Strategies for Effective Comprehension:1. Active Reading: Active reading involves engaging with the text by asking questions, making connections, and taking notes. We should interact with the text by underlining or highlighting key points, as this helps us to remember and understand the material better.2. Summarizing: Summarizing is a valuable skill that requires us to condense the main points of a text into a concise and coherent summary. It helps us to consolidate our understanding and to identify the most important information in a text.3. Inferencing: Inferencing involves using the information in a text, along with our background knowledge, to draw conclusions or make educated guesses about what is not explicitly stated. Inferencing helps us to read between the lines and understand the deeper meanings of a text.4. Vocabulary Acquisition: Building our vocabulary is essential for understanding and interpreting texts. We should actively look for new words while reading and use various strategies to learn and remember them, such as using context clues, creating flashcards, or using online tools.Conclusion:By developing our reading comprehension skills and using effective strategies, we can enhance our ability to understand and interpret various types of texts. The techniques mentioned above, such as skimming, scanning, predicting, active reading, summarizing, inferencing, and vocabulary acquisition, will greatly contribute to our success in comprehending English texts.

Reference NotesUnit 6 Living a Healthier LifeReading FocusYoga in AmericaTopic-related InformationYoga means "union" in Sanscrit, the language ofindia where yoga originated. Yogacombines physical exercises, mental medi- tation, and breathing techniques to strengthen the muscles and relieve stress. It's the union between the mind, body and spirit. Yoga has been practiced for thousands of years as a life philosophy to connect the individual self with what practitioners call the Divine, Universal Spirit, or Cosmic Consciousness. Yogais best known as a type of exercise system that stretches and strengthens the body through various poses called asanas. But yoga goes far beyond just a mere exercise routine. One of the most compelling reasons to begin practicing is the holistic outlook it takes—working mind, body, and spirit. Body-mind yoga is a very diverse practice, no matter which school you choose. Young and old people can gain many benefits from regular yoga practices, and asanas can be adjusted to fit physical limitations and other complications.Nowadays, yoga exercises have become more and more popular all over the world. Yoga is not just a physical exercise, but a mental discipline, which offers great benefits when practiced regularly. Apart from physical fitness, you can also get complete relaxation of mind by making yoga exercises an integral part of your life.There are many different schools of yoga, all of which have their own unique practices and philosophies. The prominent types are: Bhakti yoga, Hatha yoga, Jnana yoga, Karma yoga and Kundalini yoga. Almost all types of yoga have their unique qualities. The most common form is Hatha yoga, which includes postures (asanas) and various breathing techniques (pranayama).About the textThis passage is taken from Gale Encyclopedia of Alternative Medicine and Gale Encyclopedia of Nursing and Allied Health, 2002, which is designed for students of nursing and the allied health professions, caregivers, and the educated lay readers. It is a five-volume set including over 850 signed articles on various aspects of nursing. It covers nursing and allied healthcare educa- tion and training, current health issues(viewpoints, professional implications), tests and procedures (descriptions, precautions, aftercare), and quipment/tools (descriptions, operation, healthcare team roles), as well as diseases (causes, diagnosis, treatment) and human biology/body systems (functions, role in human health). The book focuses primarily on the interests of nurses and allied health professionals. The essays were contributed by physicians, nurses, and other health professionals.This passage is an expository essay on yoga. It gives a brief introduction to the origin of yoga, its quick spread in the US, as well as the benefits of doing yoga. The author also talks about the different schools of yoga and their focuses. At the same time, he gives the beginners of yoga some tips for practice.Since the passage is an exposition, long sentences and passive voice are used a lot. However, the author makes a point of writing in clear language so readers will fully understand him.参考译文“瑜伽”这个词源于梵语,意思是“结合”或“联合”。
传统上瑜伽是一种把个人和神,万物之灵或无穷的意识联合在一起的方法。
为了帮助达到这个也被称为“自我超越”或“启蒙”的目的,设计了身体上和精神上的锻炼方法。
在身体上,设计了各种瑜伽姿势来使人的身体结实、强壮,有协调性,练习这些体位能使脊柱变得柔软健康,血液更通畅地到达各器官、腺或人体组织,从而使身体各系统更健康。
在精神上,瑜伽使用呼吸法(梵语为pranayama)和冥想使心境平和、净化,精神得到很好的修养。
但是专家们很快指出瑜伽不是一种宗教,而是将健康与平和的心境结合在一起的一种生活方式。
瑜伽在美国道格拉斯·多普勒1. 瑜伽起源于古印度,是世界上最古老的哲学体系之一。
一些学者估计,瑜伽至少有5,000年的历史,印度曾出土过3,000午前的表现瑜伽姿势的手工艺品。
瑜伽师们认为,经过几千年的考验和完善,瑜伽已经发展成为一门养生的成熟科学。
19世纪晚期,印度学者、瑜伽师斯瓦米·维韦卡南达在芝加哥做了一场关于冥想的演讲,从此瑜伽传人了美国。
慢慢地有人开始练习瑜伽,并在20世纪60年代东方哲学热盛行的时候形成了学习瑜伽的高潮。
从此,瑜伽知识在美国传播开来,许多学徒专程前往印度学习,很多印度瑜伽师也来到美国教学,创办了大量瑜伽学校。
今天的美国,瑜伽已十分盛行,瑜伽教练和练习者随处可见。
最近一项由《瑜伽月刊》委托洛普民调机构所做的调查显示,有1,100万的美国人至少会偶尔做一次瑜伽,另有600万的美国人会经常做瑜伽。
瑜伽已被广泛应用于物理治疗法(或译“理疗法”)和专业运动队的日常训练,做瑜伽的好处也被电影明星和《财富》杂志世界500强企业的总裁们争相吹捧。
许多医学名校已经研究并提出能够有效缓解疾病和压力的瑜伽术了。
包括加州大学洛杉矾分校在内的一些医学院甚至还为内科医学专业的学生开设了瑜伽课程。
2. 美国有许多不同的诃陀(或译为“哈他”)瑜伽学派,其中影响最大的是艾扬格派和阿斯汤加派。
艾扬格瑜伽的创立者是波·可·斯·艾扬格,他是世界上目前仍健在的最伟大的瑜伽改革者之一。
艾扬格瑜伽十分注重姿势的精准,它采用新的方式和顺序练习传统瑜伽。
艾扬格瑜伽可促进理疗,因为它允许练习者使用瑜伽伸展带、瑜伽砖等辅助器材来减少做瑜伽动作的难度。
阿斯汤加瑜伽有着更精准的要求,练习者要用舞蹈般流畅的动作来练习传统瑜伽,从而使身体发热,并通过出汗和深呼吸来净化自己的身体。
3. 做瑜伽没有场地的限制,一套瑜伽动作通常需要20分钟到两个小时或者更多的时间,而一个小时左右的时间则是一系列动作和冥想的最佳选择。
根据瑜伽师和学派的不同,一些瑜伽动作做起来辛苦异常,而另一些却只是在呼吸和心跳平稳的情况下调整和伸展肢体。
每天练习瑜伽会达到最好的效果,随着动作越来越熟练,你就可以加大强度和难度,这样瑜伽就能成为你相伴终生的日常锻炼方式了。
练习基础的瑜伽动作即可收到增强力量,改善柔韧性并使人感到舒适的效果,但要想达到完美和高深的境界还是需要日积月累的练习,这也是瑜伽吸引人的地方之一。
