阅读理解AThese are some ideas that some people came up with about what the life will be like in the year 2500.We will have established a base on the moon. School kids can take field trips to the moon weekly. We will have found cures (疗法) for AIDS and cancer. The war will have ended and peace flows freely through the land. Kids will learn more and be smarter than ever before！History will be the main subject at school. Cafeteria (自助餐厅) food will be delicious！You just walk up to a machine, stick out your tongue, and it will scan your taste buds (味蕾) to see what you want to eat.—KristenHere I am in the wonderful year of 2500 and life is so easy. I work in a pet store and it is so hard！I have to wake up at midnight every day and fly my car to the store. It takes so long to get there. It takes me 20 seconds to get to the store in Mississippi from my home in Florida！At work, I have to push 5 buttons and then I go home. It takes 2 seconds and that is like forever.—MorganIn the year 2500, I think we will have invented cars that run on things we don't need like garbage. Tail gas will smell like whatever you like such as chocolate. I also predict that buildings will be able to go into a different dimension (维) so your car won't hit them. The cars in 2500 don't fly, for we haven't got that technology yet, but they can hover (盘旋) up to seven feet. These cars are made for speed!—CarlyInstead of cars, we may have hovering devices that float around. We could also have electric cars instead of gaspowered cars. Food might be more healthy. What I believe is that the environment will change the most. The environmental changes will also determine many other changes. If more people try to help the environment, then perhaps in 2500 we will have more forests and wildlife. If people won't help the environment, then we will have no forests and little wildlife left.—Roberta1．According to Kristen, what will happen in 2500?A．English will be the main subject at school.B．Students can go to the moon every week.C．Cafeteria will replace other restaurants.D．AIDS and cancer will disappear.2．The underlined word “scan” in the text could be replaced by “________”．A．change B．treatC．examine D．improve3．Morgan thinks his work in the pet store is ________.A．difficult B．meaninglessC．important D．easy4．Roberta thinks that in 2500 ________.A．the environment will have changed a lotB．there will be more wildlife and forestsC．the environment will be seriously damagedD．cars will run on solar power and electricityBMy legs don't do much because I have a serious disease. They just sit there and look pretty. When people look at me, they only see the chair — my wheelchair. I've been in one since I was 3 years old. And it doesn't matter if I graduate at the top of my class and go to law school. To some, I'll always be the girl in the chair.But I don't think of myself as the kid who can't walk. Most of my friends don't even notice the chair anymore. I'm just the girl they've been friends with. My friends are good at lifting me in and out of my small car when we go to the movies. We even took the car to the dance. One of the boys helped me out of the car and all the girls helped me to fix my dress. Even in the crowded school elevator, there's always someone around to carry me.There are a lot of things I can't do for myself, such as lifting my arms, dressing myself, and feeding myself. Even so, I do very well at school and I always tell myself that I'm just like any other kid in my school.The truth is that my parents raised me to be proud of my disability (残疾). Thereare plenty of things I wish I could do differently. I wanted to be a doctor. But that's not going to work out. So I'll be a lawyer (律师) instead. I also wanted to dance and play soccer. My parents taught me that I'm like this for a reason — to educate people and show them that this disease affects (侵袭) my bones —not my brain. My friends Erica once said to me，“Kennedy, you're not disabled. You just can't walk.”5．What does the underlined word“They”in the first paragraph refer to?A．The author's legs.B．The author's chairs.C．The author's friends.D．The author's diseases.6．We can learn from the second paragraph that the author ________.A．is the dancing queen of her schoolB．is afraid of taking the school elevatorC．often gets lots of help from her friendsD．can't be understood by her schoolmates7．Kennedy's story mainly tells us that we should ________.A．work hard B．smile at lifeC．have dreams D．thank our parentsCWhat will man be like in the future — in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now？We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones！This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head, in particular, the forehead will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that man's eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitivebecause they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair？This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then，both sexes are likely to be bald.Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at！This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.8．The passage mainly tells us that ________.A．man's life will be different in the futureB．future man will look quite different from usC．man is growing taller and uglier as time passesD．man's organs' functions will be on the wane9．What serves as the evidence that man is changing?A．Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had.B．Man's hair is getting thinner and thinner.C．Man's arms and legs have become lighter and weaker.D．Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.10．Which of the following is TRUE about a human being in the future?A．He is hairless because hair is no longer useful.B．He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.C．His fingers grow weaker because he doesn't have to make use of them.D．He thinks and feels in different ways.11．It is implied that ________.A．human beings will become less attractive in the futureB．less use of a bodily organ may lead to its degenerationC．human beings hope for a change in the future lifeD．future life is always predictable课下能力提升(一)语篇解读：文章描述了到2500年人类的生活情况。

Module 4 课下能力提升(十六)Ⅰ.阅读理解What makes a person a scientist？Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others？The answer is “no”．It is not the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that makes him a scientist. You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a carpenter. You will probably agree，too，that knowing how to investigate (调查), how to gather information, is important to everyone. The scientist, however, goes one step further; he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his question and that his answer can be confirmed by other persons. He also works to fit the answers he gets to many questions into a large set of ideas about how the world works.The scientist's knowledge must be exact. There is no room for half right or right just half the time. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times. If the conditions are different, any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions. This is one reason why investigations are important in science. Albert Einstein, who developed The Theory of Relativity, arrived at this theory through mathemetics. The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigations. Einstein's ideas were shown to be correct. A scientist uses many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.1．What makes a scientist according to the passage?A．The tools he uses.B．The ways he learns.C．The ways he uses his tools.D．The power he uses.2．What can we learn from the passage?A．The scientist's knowledge is always right under all conditions.B．When the condition changes, the result of the observation may also change.C．Conditions make no difference to scientists.D．There's no point for ordinary people knowing how to investigate.3．A reasonable scientific theory should be one that ________.A．not only works under one set of conditions at one time, but also works under the same conditions at other timesB．leaves no room for improvementC．does not allow any change even under different conditionsD．can be used for many purposes4．What is the main idea of the passage?A．Scientists are different from ordinary people.B．The theory of relativity.C．Exactness is the core(核心) of science.D．Exactness and ways of using tools are the keys to the making of a scientist.Ⅱ.任务型阅读As Nicole and Mike Zupan get closer to retirement, they worry about more than just covering their own living expenses for the next several decades.1．________ He is autistic (患自闭症的) and may never be able to live on his own. Their idea of retirement is to live a quiet life close to their son. 2.________ They want to create a special needs trust to help pay for treatment and other expenses he might face as an adult.“Because of our son's needs, I guess I never really considered true retirement for us，” she says.3．________ She is to attend college in a few years.The Zupans' ideal plan is for Mike, 60, to retire first, in five to seven years, and for Nicole, 52, to continue working for several years beyond that before she joins him in retirement.But before they can get there, they want to pay off the D|S18,000 in credit card debt, partly because their son's treatment is not covered by insurance. They have about D|S230,000 left on the mortgage (按揭) for their home in Fairfax County, Va., which they assess will take about 12 years to pay off. 4.________Matters are complicated by the fact that Nicole, who worked as a preschool teacher, is now unemployed while she recovers from foot operation. 5.________ Mike's D|S120,000 income, which he earns as a government clerk, is enough to cover their basic living expenses. But Nicole wants to get back to work so the family could afford more treatmentfor Josef and pay down their debt faster. They also would be able to save more for their longt erm goals, including retirement, their daughter's college tuition and their son's future living expenses.A．Besides they have a D|S14,000 loan they used on home improvements.B．It's unlikely that Josef will go to college.C．They're also trying to save for their 14yearold daughter, Elshaday.D．They want to set aside enough money for their 15yearold son, Josef.E．It could be a few weeks before she can return to the workforce.F．Can their retirement savings cover them?G．He may need to move into a group home when he gets older.Ⅲ.完形填空Have you ever watched an artist paint a picture?

The face was fatty round, with reddish cheeks and blue eyes. If the rock where the woman sat had not been so dangerous for swimmers, Munro would have thought it was human. After a few minutes it dropped into the sea and swam away. Others had seen it too.The island of Benbecula in the outer Hebrides, about 1830, women cutting seaweed reported they had met a creature of female form playing happily off the shore.

Module 3 课下能力提升(十二)Ⅰ.阅读理解Northern Europeans spend a lot of time in their cold and cloudy winters planning their summer holidays. They are proud of their healthy color when they return home after the holiday. But they also know that a certain amount of sunshine is good for their bodies and general health.In ancient Greece people knew about the healing (治疗) powers of the sun, but this knowledge was lost. At the end of the nineteenth century a Danish doctor, Niels Finsen, began to study the effect of sunlight on certain diseases, especially diseases of the skin. He was interested not only in natural sunlight but also in artificially (人造地) produced rays. Sunlight began to play a more important part in curing sick people.A Swiss doctor, Auguste Roller, made full use of the sun in his hospital at Lysine. Lysine is a small village high up in the Alps. The position is important: the rays of the sun with the greatest healing power are the infrared (红外线的) and ultraviolet (紫外线的) rays; but ultraviolet rays are too easily lost in fog and the polluted air near industrial towns. Dr. Roller found that sunlight, fresh air and good food cure a great many diseases. He was particularly successful in curing certain forms of tuberculosis with his “suncure”.There were a large number of children in Dr. Roller's hospital. He decided to start a school where sick children could be cured and at the same time continue to learn. It was not long before his school was full.In winter, wearing only shorts, socks and boots, the children put on their skis after breakfast and left the hospital. They carried small desks and chairs as well as their school books. Their teacher led them over the snow until they reached a slope which faced the sun and was free from cold winds. There they set out their desks and chairs, and school began.Although they wore hardly any clothes, Roller's pupils were very seldom cold. Thatwas because their bodies were full of energy which they got from the sun. But the doctor knew that sunshine can also be dangerous. If, for example, tuberculosis is attacking the lungs, unwise sunbathing may do great harm.Today there is not just one school in the sun. There are several in Switzerland, and since Switzerland is not the only country which has the right conditions, there are similar schools in other places.1．According to the passage, when did sunlight begin to play a more important part in the treatment of disease?A．From ancient times.B．At the end of the nineteenth century.C．Not until this century.D．Only very recently.2．Why are a Danish doctor and a Swiss doctor mentioned in the second and third paragraphs?A．Because they both made use of sunlight to treat illness.B．Because they were the first people who used sunlight for treatment.C．Because they were both famous European doctors.D．Because they used sunlight in very different ways.3．Dr Roller set up a “suncure” school probably for the reason that ________.A．most children could stay in his hospitalB．children could study while being treatedC．the school was expected to be full of pupilsD．the school was high up in the mountains4．What can be inferred from the last paragraph of the passage?A．“Suncure” schools are becoming popular ev erywhere.B．Switzerland is the only country where “suncure” schools are popular.C．Proper conditions are necessary for the running of a “suncure” school.D．“Suncure” schools are found in countries where there is a lot of sunshine.Ⅱ.任务型阅读Cats are the most popular pets among Americans. 1.________ Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries (金丝雀). If someone looks very proud or satisfied with himself or herself, we say he or she looks like “the cat that ate the canary”．2．________ So if you “play cat and mouse” with someone, you change between different kinds of behavior when dealing with another person. For example, a child might offersomething sweet to her little brother and then take it away when he reaches for it.One old and funny expression describes something that is the best. Americans might say that something is “the cat's miaow (喵)”. 3.________ Sometimes people sleep for a short time during the day. This is called “a cat nap”. If you tell about something that was supposed to be a secret, we say you “let the cat out of the bag”. 4.________ Then someone might ask if “the cat has got your tongue”．Have you ever watched children in a classroom when their teacher leaves for a few minutes? 5.________ It means people sometimes misbehave when there is no supervision (监督). You may have heard this expression: curiosity killed the cat. This means being too concerned about things that are not your business might cause problems.A．When the cat is away, the mice will play.B．Sometimes you are not able to speak or answer a question.C．Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches.D．A cat will often catch a small animal and present it to its owner.E．You may have known that cats spend most of their time sleeping.F．So it is not surprising t hat there are many expressions with the word, “cat”．G．The saying “that looks like something the cat dragged in” describes something in bad condition.Ⅲ.完形填空My son Joey was born with clubfeet (畸形足). The doctors told us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally__1__would never run very well. The first three years of his life were spent in __2__. By the time he was eight, you __3__ he had a problem when you saw him walk.The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would __4__ and play, too.

Module 3 课下能力提升(九)阅读理解APeople can communicate with one another not only through verbal communication but also through nonverbal communication；moreover, the latter plays an important role.Usually body language occurs unconsciously. Yet the body language we use decides to a large extent the quality of our communication. It follows that therefore it would be good to become conscious of our own and others' body language. We can learn to use our body language for a purpose. It is important to note that body language has different meanings in different cultures. How we can interpret body language depends on the situation, the culture, the relationship we have with the person as well as the gender (性别) of the other. This means that there is not one signal that has the same meaning all over the world. Body language is also interlinked with spoken language and a whole pattern of behavior from a person. As well as that, various body language signs can combine each other to make a particular meaning clear or strengthen the meaning of what we communicate.Body language is known as nonverbal behavior which conveys (传递) information through gestures, actions and facial expressions. People communicate with each other by their body language in the ways of nodding, waving, eye contacting, shrugging and so on. According to the research results of psychologists, these ways can express what the verbal language cannot directly.How we get across to someone is decided only for a small part by the words we speak. The person on the receiving end of our body language will have a feeling or impression that is often difficult to describe, difficult to put into words or difficult to prove what actually was communicated. Haven't we all said at times, “I have a feeling he/she likes me”，or something like, “I doubt if what he/she is saying is really the truth”．This type of feeling is called intuition (直觉). Body language plays a big role in intuition as it gives us messages about the other person that we can interpret at an intuitive level. It is therefore necessary to get to know our own body language first.

We walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn't even lift her eyes from the book. Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched, mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop (拖把). She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, “Very dirty floors.”“Yes, I'm glad they've fina lly decided to clean them，” the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said, “But aren't you working late？”Mum just pushed harder, each swipe of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book.After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum nodded politely to the nurse and said, “Thank you.”Outside, Mum told me, “Dagma is fine. No fever. ”“You see her, Mum？”“Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. It's a fine hospital. But the floors! A mop is no good. You need a brush. ”5．When the nurse talked to Mum, she thought Mum was a ________.A．nurse B．cleanerC．patient D．visitor6．What can we infer about the hospital?A．It was a children's hospital.B．The nurses and doctors there don't work hard.C．It has strict rules about visiting hours.D．A lot of patients come to this hospital every day.7．Mum went to see Dagma in the hospital to ________.A．give her some messages about DadB．make sure her room was cleanC．check that she was still thereD．find out how she was8．Which of the following words can best describe Mum?A．Hardworking. B．Clever.C．Warmlyhearted. D．Strange.CWhat's your opinion about finding good friends? Speaking from my past experience, it is very difficult to find good friends that you can trust but once you have found them, they are worth keeping forever! Therefore, I think friendship is the most important relationship that anybody could have.The qualities I look for in a friend are a good sense of humor and sensitivity. A friend would have to be strongminded and highly spirited. I think that these qualities are the key qualities to look for in a good friend.Even the best friends can still have arguments between themselves, though usually about more serious topics, rather than the usual childish arguments. Some matters can seriously affect friendship. If one of your friends started experimenting with harmful and dangerous drugs, what would you do? A good friend would try to help as much as possible,while a bad example of a friend would simply shrug and turn a blind eye.Not only the bad things affect friendship —good activities do too, such as bonding with one another, not just by going out on a night with them, but by spending quality time with them and talking to each other. This is a key aspect of a good friendship.Good friends do not always have to be in the same age group as you. I have a good friend and she is 47 years old and I am 16.Unfortunately, some people lose contact with their friends as they grow older, which is a sad way to lose a good friend.I think friendship is one of the most important things in life because if you have no friends you will have no happiness.9．According to the author, true friendship ________.A．is easy to getB．needs managementC．deepens with timeD．affects one's happiness10．Paragraph 3 is mainly about ________.A．why drugs are bad for teenagersB．whether a friend is reliableC．ways that help avoid argumentsD．problems that will test friendship11．According to the author, which matters least in friendship?A．Confidence. B．Age.C．Sense of humor. D．Communication.12．Which of the following sayings can match the author's view on friendship?A．Old friends and old wines are best.B．A friend without faults will never be found.C．A friend to everybody is a friend to nobody.D．A life without a friend is a life without a sun.课下能力提升(九)语篇解读：人们之间既可以通过语言交流，也可以通过非语言进行交流，身势语在我们的日常交流中起着重要的作用。

It is said that our body movements communicate about 50 percent of what we really mean while words only express 7 percent. So, while your mouth is closed, your body is just saying...Arms. How you hold your arms shows how open and receptive you are to people you meet. If you keep your arms to the sides of your body or behind your back, this suggests you are not afraid of taking on whatever comes your way. Outgoing people generally use their arms with big movements, while quieter people keep them close to their bodies. If someone upsets you, just cross your arms to show you're unhappy!Head. When you want to appear confident, keep your head level. If you are a monitor in class, you can also take on this position when you want your words to be taken seriously.However, to be friendly in listening or speaking, you must move your head a little.Legs. Your legs tend to move around a lot more than normal when you are nervous or telling lies. If you are at interviews, try to keep them still!Posture (姿势). A good posture makes you feel better about yourself. If you are feeling down, you normally don't sit straight, with your shoulders inwards. This makes breathing more difficult, which can make you feel nervous or uncomfortable.Mouth.When you are thinking, you often purse your lips. You might also use this position to hold back an angry comment you don't wish to show. However, it will probably still be noticed, and people will know you're not pleased.Face.When you lie, you might put on a false face. But that expression would crack briefly, allowing displays of true emotions such as happiness, sadness, disgust (厌恶) and fear to come through.1．When someone is keeping his arms behind his back, he tried totell you that ________.A. he is outgoingB. he is angryC. he is not afraidD. he is cool答案与解析：C细节理解题。

Module 4 课下能力提升(十三)阅读理解ANiels Bohr did well at school without ever being brilliant, usually coming third or fourth in a class of about 20 students. If he really was good at any subject, it was, perhaps, physical education. He was an excellent soccer player, yet not as good as his brother. This was Niels Bohr, the worldfamous Nobel prize winning physicist.Born to a physiology (生理学) professor, Niels lived in a world of ideas and discussion from his very early childhood at home. He developed an interest in physics and mathematics from the early days of his education. With no laboratory available in school and college, he would perform experiments in his father's laboratory. His first work on surface tension was done here, for which he won the Gold Medal in 1906 from the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences.Early in his scientific career, Bohr made great contributions to the understanding of atomic (原子的) structure based on quantum mechanics (量子力学)．Neils Bohr came up with the model of an atom which was able to explain all the properties (性质) of the atom. It is this atomic model that is accepted even today with only very slight improvements. This work won him the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922.When the Nazis controlled Denmark, his life became difficult. He had to escape to Sweden in 1943 in a fishing boat; from there he fled to England. England opened up opportunities of working on the atom bomb (原子弹)．After a few months he joined a British research team and went to Los Alamos in the United States where the team continued to work on the project.Niels was also deeply concerned with making people realize the destructive power of the atomic bomb. He published a letter to the United Nations in 1950 which asked them to help get rid of nuclear (核的) weapons in the world. This and his other activities won Bohr the first U．S. Atoms for Peace Award in 1957. He spent his remaining yearsshowing people that nuclear energy must be used in a positive and productive way.1．Who probably helped Niels Bohr develop an interest in physics?A．His brother. B．His mother.C．His teacher. D．His father.2．Niels Bohr received the Nobel Prize mainly because of________.A．his physical educationB．his atomic modelC．his understanding of quantum mechanicsD．his work on surface tension3．Niels Bohr did his research work on the atom bomb in________.A．Denmark B．AmericaC．England D．Sweden4．From the last paragraph we can infer that________.A．the power of the atomic bomb will be used properlyB．Niels thought it wrong to develop nuclear weaponsC．nuclear energy has been used in quite a few waysD．Niels would like to go on with his research workBNowadays, studying abroad gains popularity in China. Many parents would rather send their children abroad to receive education than let them be educated in China.Every coin has two sides and studying abroad is no exception (例外). There are advantages for people to attend school abroad. In the first place, he can use the foreign language in his daily life so that his ability in the second language may be greatly improved, as it is obvious that there is no better opportunity to improve second language skills than living in the country where it is spoken. While studying in a foreign country, he will mostly meet many others from overseas and it is possible to make friends with people from all over the world. This is not only exciting on the social level, but could lead to important overseas contacts in his career as well. He can learn the latest knowledge in science and make use of the firstrate facilities (设备) available. In this way, there are many chances for him to widen his horizons and broaden his mind.Of course, attending school abroad may bring about a series of problems as well. The most serious problem is language barrier (障碍). Not all of the students who plan to go abroad are good at the language spoken there. As a result, on arriving there, they will find it difficult to understand what the teachers say. Besides, for lack of knowledge of the customs of the local people, they may constantly (不断地) run into trouble in dealing with various situations. Furthermore, the tuition and the cost of living are much higher than those in our country, which may add more burdens to their family.Therefore, given an opportunity to attend a school abroad, one must consider both its advantages and its disadvantages carefully before making up his mind.5．What is the passage mainly about?A．Students' life in the foreign countries.B．The advantages and disadvantages of studying abroad.C．Problems that will be met when we study abroad.D．The reasons why many parents sent their children abroad.6．All the following are the advantages of studying abroad EXCEPT________.A．the ability in the second language may be greatly improvedB．you may make friends from all over the worldC．you can learn to live an independent lifeD．you can get to know the latest knowledge in science.7．The writer's attitude towards studying abroad is ________.A．positive B．negativeC．neutral D．not clearCAlzheimer's disease (老年痴呆症)affects millions of people around the world. American researchers say the disease will affect more than one hundred million people worldwide by the year 2050. That would be four times the current number. Researchers and doctors have been studying Alzheimer's patients for a century. Yet the cause and the cure for the mental sickness are still unknown. However, some researchers have made important steps towards understanding it.Several early signs of the disease involve memory and thought processes. At first,patients have trouble remembering little things. Later, they have trouble remembering more important things, such as the names of their children.There are also some physical tests that might show who is at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. The tests look for proteins in brain and spinal cord (脊髓) fluid. The proteins appear to be found only in people with the disease. The protein tests correctly identify the presence of the disease in about ninety percent of patients.Now, a much simpler physical test to predict Alzheimer's risk has been developed. Researchers found that trouble with the sense of smell can be one of the first signs of Alzheimer's. Using this information, they developed a test in which people were asked to identify twelve familiar smells. These smells included cinnamon, black pepper, chocolate, paint thinner, and smoke.The study continued for five years. During this period, the same people were asked to take several tests measuring their memory and thought abilities. Fifty percent of those who could not identify at least four of the smells in the first test had trouble with their memory and thinking in the next five years.Another study has shown a possible way to reduce a person's chances of developing Alzheimer's disease in old age. Researchers in Chicago found that people who use their brains more often are less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease. Those who read a newspaper, or play chess or word games are about three times less likely to develop the condition.Researchers say they still do not know what causes Alzheimer's disease. But they say these findings might help prevent the disease in the future.8．What's the main idea of the passage?A．Some early signs of the Alzheimer's disease.B．Some physical tests about Alzheimer's disease.C．The research about Alzheimer's disease.D．The patients of Alzheimer's disease.9．What's the current number of Alzheimer's patients?A．100 million.

Some might not want to admit it, but there is a hidden Cinderella in everyone's heart—we all wish we could achieve recognition or success after a period ofobscurity (默默无闻) or neglect.Mary Santiago has that secret dream, too. Her story is featured in Another Cinderella Story, a film set in a US high school.Mary is shy but loves to dance. Compared with other girls, she is invisible. However, her world changes completely when a famous teenage pop singer, Joey Parker, appears.Joey is everything the rest of the boys in her class are not—kind, handsome and desirable. Mary and Joey's paths cross at a ball. They meet and fall in love with each other. But when Mary has to rush back home, she leaves behind her MP3 player, which becomes the only clue Joey has to find the girl of his dreams. Of course, there is a wicked (邪恶的) stepmother, who turns out to be Dominique Blatt and she takes in Mary after her dancer mother dies. Dominique treats Mary like a maid and does everything she can to make sure Mary doesn't get into the top dance school. Her two daughters are equally determined to stop Joey falling for Mary, even if that means embarrassing her.The story, though it mostly follows Cinderella, does add a few modern day twists to the classic fairy tale. Refreshingly, the film, unlike many high school films, does not focus on looks, although the actors are all beautiful. There is also a lot less materialism in Another Cinderella Story than in many similar movies.“The movie takes the fairy tale Cinderella as its jumping off point，” writes movie critic Amber Wilkinson. “The focus is firmly on following your dream. ”1．The first paragraph is mainly to ________.A. build interest and lead us to Mary's secret dreamB. remind us why Cinderella is popular all the yearsC. inform us of the main topic of the whole passageD. tell us how interesting the fairy tale Cinderella is答案与解析：A推理判断题。

But outstanding astrophysicist(天体物理学家) Stephen Hawking has admitted that he did not learn to read until he was eight years old.In a public lecture at the Royal Albert Hall, Professor Hawking also admitted that he was not active in studying while at Oxford University, where he studied physics, and that only the diagnosis that he might die young from motor neuron(神经元) disease made him concentrate on his work.Professor Hawking said, “My sister Philippa could read by the age of 4 but then she was definitely brighter than me.” He said that he was unexceptional at school and was never further than halfway up his class. “My classwork was very untidy, and my handwriting was the despair of my teachers，”he said. “But my classmates gave me the nickname Einstein, so presumably they saw signs of something better.”But he said that it was when doctors told him that he probably only had a few years to live at the age of 21 that galvanized(刺激) him into focusing on his work and a period of productivity that resulted in some of his early breakthroughs. He said, “When you are faced with the possibility of an early death, it makes you realize that life is worth living and there are lots of things you want to do.”1．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Stephen Hawking is the second Einstein in the world.B. Stephen Hawking couldn't read at the age of 7.C. Stephen Hawking's handwriting was once terribly bad.D. Stephen Hawking's sister once performed much better than him.答案与解析：A细节理解题。
