宝墩遗址以在成都平原上相继发现的新津宝 墩村、都江堰芒城村、崇州双河村和紫竹村、 郫县古城村、温江鱼凫村等六座史前遗址群 为代表。当时，古人的生产工具主要是石器， 也能制作陶器了，主要有绳纹花边陶、敞口 圈足尊、喇叭口高领罐、宽沿平地尊为标志。 对上述６座古城的发掘与研究证明：它们与 三星堆遗址的第一期属于同期文化，它不仅 大大丰富了三星堆一期的文化内涵，能够再 细分为若干期，并且可与以三星堆古城为代 表的夏商时期的三星堆文化或古蜀文明相衔 接。于是按考古学文化命名规则被称为“宝 墩文化”。

Mother‘s (rather than father‘s) own educational achievements have long been thought to be the key to children‘s progress at school. But government-funded research suggests that mothers can compensate for their lack of exam success if they offer their under-fives activities linked to literacy and numeracy.Researchers from Oxford, Cardiff and London universities, who measured the attainments of65316426.doc 2more than 2,000 children at the ages of three and five, found that their mothers‘education is important in accounting for differences between children. But what the mother did with the child was even more important. Those who talked frequently to their children, who played games with numbers and letters, read to them, took them to the library and taught them songs and nursery rhymes had a significant effect on their attainment both at the ages of three and five. Professor Pam Sammons of London University‘s Institute of Education, said, ―Children‘s progress is not completely determined by social disadvantages. What parents do with children is critically important. Parents who have no educational qualifications can still do many things to help their children. We need to encourage parents, particularly younger ones, to play with children and to talk to them.Sammons said the findings emphasized the importance of policies for supporting families of under-threes, for example, the government‘s Sure Start program. MPs on the Select Committee for Education are investigating early years education. Ministers have provided a nursery, playgroup or school place for every four-year-old, but critics say that too many children are now in school reception classes, which are not equipped for them. There are more staff workers for each child in nurseries than in reception classes. The researchers, comparing children‘s achievements in math and literacy, found that playgroups and private day nurseries tended to do much less well than nursery schools, which combined education, day care and reception classes.This research is consistent with previous studies that show the benefit of mother play in other areas such as in a child‘s creativity and social development using other devices such as music and toys. Music helps children connect the outer world of movement and sound with the inner world of feelings and observations. Children learn music the same way they learn language – by listening and imitating. Finger play promotes language development, motor skills and coordination, as well as self-esteem. Young children are proud when they sing a song and can do the accompanying finger movements. Listening to music also teaches important pre-reading skills. As youngsters use small drums or other percussion instruments (homemade or store-bought), they can play the rhythmic pattern of words.Babies become social beings through watching their parents, and through interacting with them and the rest of the family and later with others. It is a crucial time to begin teaching by example how people should behave toward one another. Toys that help babies with social development are stuffed animals, animal mobiles and dolls. Even very small babies can socialize with them. The infant will often converse with animal prancing on the crib bumpers or revolving on a mobile. Later, books and opportunities for make-believe and dress-up play also help children to develop social skills.In the beginning, babies‘ hand movements are totally random. But within a few months those tiny hands will move with more purpose and control. A mother has a particularly important role in the development of purposeful movement by giving her baby‘s hands plenty freedom; rather than keeping them swaddled or tucked under a blanket (except outdoor in cold weather). Researchers suggest providing a variety of objects that are easy for small hands to pick up and manipulate, and that don‘t require fine dexterity. And since young babies usually won‘t grasp objects that are directly in front of them, a mother should offer these objects from the side.Researchers suggest that mother give babies ample opportunity for ―hands-on‖ experience with the following:Rattles that fit small hands comfortably. Those with two handles or grasping surfaces allow a baby to pass them from hand to hand, an important skill, and those that baby can put their mouth on will help bring relief when teething begins.65316426.doc 3They also suggest mothers use cradle gyms (they fit across a carriage, playpen or crib) that have a variety of parts for baby to grab hold of, spin, pull and poke. Beware of those, however, with strings more than six inches long, and take any gym down once your baby is able to sit up.Another useful play device is an activity board that requires a wide range of hand movements to operate, many of which your baby won‘t be able to intentionally maneuver for a while, but some of which even a young infant can set in motion accidentally with a swipe of a hand or foot. Besides the spinning, dialing, pushing, and pressing skills these toys encourage, they also teach the concept of cause and effect.1.Mothers, either well-educated or badly-educated, can help their young children succeedacademically.2.Young babies at all ages benefit from mothers who talk and play games with them.3.Even if a mother has no educational qualifications, she should play and talk with her child.4.There is no shortage of nurseries, playgroup or school places.5.Listening to music can teach children important pre-reading skills.6.Babies can move their tiny hands within a few months after they are born.7.If you give an object to a baby you‘d better not offer it from the side of the baby.1.〔Y〕〔N〕〔NG〕2.〔Y〕〔N〕〔NG〕3. 〔Y〕〔N〕〔NG〕4.〔Y〕〔N〕〔NG〕5.〔Y〕〔N〕〔NG〕6. 〔Y〕〔N〕〔NG〕7.〔Y〕〔N〕〔NG〕8.

You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Readthe passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank isidentified by a letter. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Questions 47 to 56 are based on the following passage.A new study says walking is just as (47) as more difficult exercise in reducing the risk of heart disease in women. It suggests that even (48) amounts of exercise can be good for women‘s health. Federal researchers in the United States (49) the study. The research is part of the federal government‘s Women‘s Health Initiative. Researchers are studying many health questions important to older women.The researchers (50) almost 74,000 women during a six-year period. The women were between the ages of 50 and 79. They answered questions about their activity (51) . The researchers divided the women into five groups, from the (52) activity to the most activity.The study found that fast walking for about two-and-one-half hours a week cut the risk of heart disease (53) one-third. This good effect was about the same in women who spent an (54) amount of time doing more difficult exercise. The good effects (55) as the women spent more time and energy taking part in such exercises.The study also found that sitting in a chair for at least sixteen hours each day could increase the risk of heart disease (56) a person exercised or not. The results were published in the New England Journal of Medicine.Section BDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D).You should decide on the best choic.Passage OneQuestions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.The human brain has two sides, and each side has different work to do.The left side of the brain controls language and number; it analyses and reasons. The right side65316426.doc 8controls our imagination; it controls our appreciation of music and our sense of rhythm. It is the right side of our brain which daydreams.Great artists and great scientists are similar. They both use the two sides of their brains. It is well-known that Albert Einstein (1879 –1955), as a great scientist, also enjoyed art, playing the violin and sailing. Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis, reason and language. He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking. The story goes that Einstein was daydreaming one summer‘s day while sitting on a hill. He imagined he was riding on sunbeams to the far distance of the universe. Then he found that he had returned to the sun. So he realized that the universe must curve. He got this idea by using his imagination. He then used the left side of brain to apply analysis, number and reason. And finally he used language to explain it.Traditional, established education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our brains. Language, number, analysis and reason are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming. However, we are encouraged to hop when we have two perfectly good legs! Then why don‘t we give more value to visual thinking?In fact, we all need both sides of our brains. We need to use our imaginations to think of solutions to problems and to enjoy emotional and artistic experiences. And we need to be logical and to be able to analyze and organize in order to survive day by day.57. According to the passage, the left side of the brain ________.A) controls language and numberB) controls our imaginationC) daydreamsD) controls our sense of rhythm58. What does the author want to show by using the example of Einstein?A) Great scientists are also great artists.B) The left side of Einstein‘s brain is very powerful.C) Einstein is a genius whose two sides of the brain are strong.D) The two sides of the brain are equally important.59. What do we learn about Einstein from the passage?A) He could play the violin well.B) He said his scientific discoveries are acquired by analysis rather than by daydreaming.C) He was the first person to discover the track of the sun.D) He was disgusted at language.60. What does the author mean by saying ―we are encouraged to hop when we have two perfectlygood legs‖ (Para. 4) ?A)We needn‘t hop because we are healthy.B)Only those who have something wrong in their legs can be encouraged to hop.C)It‘s foolish of us to hop when we have two perfectly good legs.D)We should use both sides of the brain.61. The author believes that the right side of our brain is as important as the left side because65316426.doc 9________.A) it controls our appreciation of music and sense of rhythmB) it enables us to make scientific discoveriesC) it is more important to analyze and organize in order to surviveD) the imaginations may provide solutions to problems and enable us to enjoy emotional andartistic experiencesPassage TwoQuestion 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.Elderly people respond best to a calm and unhurried environment. This is not always easy to provide as their behavior can sometimes be irritating. If they get excited or upset then they may become more difficult to look after. Although sometimes it can be extremely difficult, it is best to be patient and not to get upset yourself. You should always encourage old people to do as much as possible for themselves but be ready to lend a helping hand when necessary.Failing memory makes it difficult for the person to recall all the basic kinds of information we take for granted. The obvious way to help in this situation is to supply the information that is missing and help them make sense of what is going on. You must use every opportunity to provide information but remember to keep it simple and straightforward.―Good morning, Mum. This is Fiona, your daughter. It is eight o‘clock, so if you get up now, we can have breakfast downstairs.‖When the elderly person makes confused statements e.g. about going out to his or her old employment or visiting a dead relative, correct in a calm matter-of-fact fashion: ―You don‘t work in the office any more. You are retired now. Will you come and help me with the dishes?‖We rely heavily on the information provided by signposts, clocks, calendars and newspapers. These assist us to organize and direct our behavior. Confused old people need these aids all the time to compensate for their poor memory. Encourage them to use reminder boards or diaries for important coming events and label the contents of different cupboards and drawers. Many other aids such as information cards, old photos, scrap books, and addresses or shopping list could help in individual case.62. Why can‘t we always keep calm in front of old people?A)Because old people sometimes annoy us.B)Because old people sometimes don‘t understand us.C)Because we are sometimes in a bad mood.D)Because we are sometimes in a hurry.63. What happens to elderly people‘s memory according to the passage?A)Their memory becomes worse and recalls basic things as granted.B)Their memory becomes worse and can‘t remember basic things.C)They can‘t remember their failures.D)They can only remember past failures.64. Paragraph 3 gives an example illustrating ________.65316426.doc10A)how to provide simple, direct informationB) a daughter‘s care for her motherC) a daughter‘s duty to her motherD)the right procedure of helping the old65. Why are old people encouraged to use diaries?A)Because diaries can replace reminder boarders.B)Because diaries are the best way to record important events.C)Because diaries help make up for poor memory.D)Because diaries can label the contents of cupboards.66. What is the main idea of the passage?A)What happens to old people with failing memory.B)How to help old people with failing memory.C)Why old people have poor memory.D)How to improve bad memory.Part V Cloze (15 minutes)Directions:There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D) on the right side of the paper.

In fact, the Internet is becoming a dominant element in modern life.The advantages of the Internet are very prominent. First, it can transmit information with surprising speed, and thus distances have been shortened. Second, with the Internet, life has become clearer. On-line chatting and various kinds of news give us access to knowledge from every corner of the world. Third, the Internet has completely changed people‘s mode of living. For example, on-line shopping, both convenient and cheap, is becoming more and more popular.However, the Internet has also brought some problems. First, its surprising speed can promote the spread of viruses as well. And virtual space has also provided opportunities for criminal activities. Third, many young people spend time on the Internet which should be devoted to homework.Overall, just as a coin has two sides, the Internet has both good and bad influences. Used wisely, the Internet will contribute to a brilliant future for us.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1.Y2. NG3. Y4. N5. Y6. NG7.

Unit 4: Flight 93: What I Never Know(第93次航班：我所无法理解的事)Introductory RemarksSince Sept. 11, 2001, the story of the passengers who fought their hijackers on United Airlines Flight 93 has become a model account of good thwarting evil. No one will ever know exactly what happened on that plane. But the last-minute calls made by some of the passengers give us a more complete account of the struggle of these everyday people. Here is one of the stories of courage and heroism.United Airlines Flight 93United Airlines Flight 93 was a Boeing 757 –222 flight that regularly flew from Newark International airport to San Francisco International airport, continuing on to Narita International Airport in Tokyo, Japan, on a different aircraft. On September 11, 2001, the aircraft on the flight was one of the four planes hijacked as part of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. It was the only one of the four planes that did not reach its intended target, instead crashing into the field in south Pennsylvania. It is believed that the pilot, flight attendants and some of the passengers fought back.

Unit 2: Deer and the Energy Cycle Introductory RemarksLife depends on energy. All human beings eat food and make use of the chemical energy in it, and so do all other animals. Calling energy the currency of the ecological system, Prof. Moen argues that it is neither love nor money but energy that makes the world go round.However, our energy sources are limited and, to make matters worse, we are rapidly using up our energy supplies. It is extremely important therefore that we conserve the supplies we have so as to make them last as long as possible.In this article Prof. Moen describes in great detail the life of deer round the year and the various means by which they survive the hard winter. When he concludes by saying “it is biologically reasonable for deer to reduce their cost of living to increase their chances of surviving in winter,” he is actually leading us to the question: If deer can do that, why not we human beings?

college english定语从句
定语从句： 修饰一个名词或代词的从句称为定语从句， 一般紧跟在它所修饰的先行词后面。 关系词：引导定语从句的关联词成为关系词 关系词有关系代词和关系副词。关系代词有 that, which, who, whom, whose, as等； 关系副词有where, when, why等。
限定性定语从句与 非限定性定语从句的区别
判断关系代词与关系副词
• 方法一： 用关系代词，还是关系副词完全取决于 从句中的谓语动词。及物动词后面无宾语，就必 须要求用关系代词；而不及物动词则要求用关系 副词。例如： This is the mountain village where I stayed last year. I'll never forget the days when I worked together with you. 判断改错 （错） This is the mountain village where I visited last year. （错） I will never forget the days when I spent in the countryside.
• 而句2中, 主、谓、宾俱全，从句部分为句 子的状语表地点，既可用副词where，又因 in the museum词组，可用介词in + which 引导地点状语。而此题中，介词on 用的不 对，所以选A。 关系词的选择依据在从句中所做的成分， 先行词在从句中做主、定、宾语时，选择 关系代词 (who, whom, that, which, whose)； 先行词在从句中做状语时，应选 择关系副词 ( where 地点状语，when 时 间状语，why 原因状语) 。
• （对） This is the mountain village (which) I visited last year. （对） I'll never forget the days (which) I spent in the countryside. 习惯上总把表地点或时间的名词与关系副词 where, when联系在一起。此两题错在关系词的误 用上。 方法二： 准确判断先行词在定语从句中的成 分(主、谓、宾、定、状)，也能正确选择出关系 代词/关系副词。 例1. Is this museum ___ you visited a few days age? A. where B. that C. on which D. the one

Unit 3: Why Do We Believe That the Earth Is Round (我们为什么相信地球是圆的？) Introductory Remarks“Why Do We Believe That the Earth Is Round” is one of a series of short essays Orwell wrote for British periodicals in the 1940’s. In it he first tries to refute both the Flat Earth theory and Oval Earth theory but says that his reasons for thinking that the earth is round are rather weak and precarious. Then from the discussion he draws his conclusion that ours is a credulous age because much of our knowledge does not rest on reasoning or on experiment, but on authority. Here Orwell expresses a healthy concern for the burden the ordinary newspaper-reading citizen carries. Overloaded with information and misinformation, the average man cannot adequately process and digest what he receives. He is apt to accept what he hears or reads as true without submitting it to factual verification or the test of reason. Man should respect the views of true experts, but he should test their theories, and compare different viewpoints in order to arrive at a truer perspective. Then, and only then, can man truly become an intelligent thinking species Prefaceprove (vt.) 证明, 证实prove + noun: He has proved his courage in battle.prove + adj.: The article has proved most useful.prove to be …: The play proved to be very good.prove + that clause:I will prove (to the world) that he was right. go ahead (vi.): Go ahead, please.go ahead with sth: Go ahead with your plan.rely on = depend onsense (C):理性(pl.) 感觉draw on吸收, 利用= take advantage of = make use of Lines 1 – 13some… or…other 某一…e.g.: somewhere or other 在某个地方; some day or other (未来)某一天; (in) some way or other (以)某种方法; He went to some place or other.他去了某个地方. preface (to):introduction (to) (文章或书的)序言; 引言Saint Joan“圣女贞德”Bernard Shaw肖伯纳(English dramatist)remark (v. & n.): say; commentgullible (adj.): credulous 易轻信的; 易受骗的gull (vt.): cheat; deceive e.g.: Gull (=deceive / cheat) a fool out of his money骗取傻子的钱gull (n.): a person who is easily deceived易受欺骗的人superstitious (adj.)迷信的superstition (U)the Middle Ages (欧洲)中世纪credulity (U)易轻信; 易受骗credulous (adj.)incredulity (U); incredulous (adj.) = unbelievablecite (vt.)引用, 引证e.g.: The lawyer cited a previous case to support his argument. average (=ordinary) man普通人advance: put forth; put or bring forward提出e.g.: Mary is too shy to advance her opinion at the meeting.not a single(强调否定) 一个也没有…can advanc e not a single reason提不出任何一个理由e.g.: There was n’t a single boat on the lake.merely = only not merely (=not only)… but alsoswallow (up): eat up without biting; believe or absorb without thinking or reasoninge.g.: I trusted her so much that I could have swallowed any story she told me.appeal to:be attractive or interesting to迎合, 引起…的兴趣e.g.: Korea films always appeal to young people.a)appeal to the court (向法院起诉)b)appeal to history (引证历史)c)appeal to the public (向大众呼吁)d)appeal to force (求助于武力)mentality (U): way of thinking思维方式the twentieth-century mentality二十世纪的思维方式exaggerate (vi. & vt.): overstate夸张, 夸大其词e.g.:Be honest, and don’t exaggerate your sales achievement.…something in: some truth or value in有些对或道理e.g.: There is something/nothing/everything in your answer.

The Argentina side of 1986 was functional and hard-working but it was Maradona who fired them to the final and then set up two of the goals in their 3-2 win over West Germany in the final.In 1990, a barely-fit Maradona fought his way to the final where the Germans took their revenge. Few people shared Diego’s post-match tears. In fact many rejoiced that such an ugly brute of a team had lost.Eight years before, in Spain, Maradona, then newly arrived at Barcelona, disgraced himself by being sent off in a Second Phase game with Brazil. Even four years before that the 18-year-old Maradona was a source of great controversy when he was left Out of the victorious squad that won on home ground.USA 1994 was the end for Maradona as a player. Right after the Nigeria game, he was picked for drugs-screening and tested positive for banned stimulant ephedrine (麻黄硷).He was banned from the rest of the tournament and the team fell apart, going out in the second round to Romania.21. How many World Cups are mentioned in the passage?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.D. Six.22. Which country won the 1990 World Cup?A. Argentina.B. Germany.C. Romania.D. England.23.

According to the passage, Maradona is a man _________.A. full of ideasB. with cruel behaviorsC. having good luckD. of great controversyPassage TwoA material which usually keeps animals and people warm is providing an oil clean-up service for the environment. Wool from sheep proved to be an effective “sponge” to soak up oil from the waters of the Persian Gulf after the Gulf War in 1991. The absorbent qualities of wool were used to good effect in wool poles which swept across the surface of the water and cleaned up the oil.（加）Now the same absorbent qualities are being used by railways in the Netherlands. Wool mats produced by Rhanex Wools of New Zealand have been laid between the rails at eight major Dutch railway stations to soak up diesel oil dropping from locomotives. Dutch authorities were worried that diesel oil was seeping (渗入) through the ground into the water-table, which is used for farm irrigation and to supply drinking water. The mats can be regularly squeezed to extract the diesel oil from them, and then reused.Similar wool mats are being used in inner city car parking lots in Sydney, Australia, to soak up oil dropping from parked cars. One parking lot owner believed that the value of his land could be reduced by oil pollution.The environmental friendly qualities of wool are also being put to good use to protect wool itself. High value Merino sheep in Australia and Canada are wearing wool covers to protect their fleece (羊毛).65316475.doc 426. Which of the following is not one of wool’s advan tages?A. It has absorbent quality.B. It could be squeezed and reused.C. It can be used to avoid pollution.D. It could increase the price of land.27. It can be inferred that wool first proved very useful in absorbing oil ________.A. in ancient timeB. in the Gulf WarC. after the Gulf WarD. before the Gulf War28. Which country used wool to prevent oil seeping into earth?A. America.B. Iraq.C. New Zealand.D. The Netherlands.29. Why are wool mats are being used in parking lots in Sydney?A. To prevent the cars from turning over.B. To absorb oil leaking from the parked cars.C. To attract more drivers to park their cars.D. To ask for a higher price when the lands are sold.30. Which function of wool is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Storing up oil.B. Material for making clothes.C. Absorbing oil.D. Protecting sheep themselves.Passage ThreeDaily social relations in France have always been dominated by family ties. The family has bee n the focus of the individual’s loyalty and affection, of his economic interest, and even of his legal duty. Many an older Frenchman has spent his youth in a world where he was expected to regard cousins, uncles and grandparents as more important to him than friends of his own age, and where the family’s needs and de mands were put before those of the local community or even of the State.The main change since the war is that the focus of loyalty has been steadily narrowing from the “extended family”to the “nuclear family”, i.e. the home cell of parents and children. In the rural areas the traditionally big peasant families have been losing their influence as the young drift away to the town. As property gives way to income and family management disappears, the tight network of the big family gath ering has become less necessary for the individual’s future, and also less easy to maintain. Many younger couples today prefer pleasure travelling, or a weekend cottage shared with a few friends, to the traditional big family reunions on Sundays and in August.But old values are still there. Clan (氏族) loyalties towards more distant relatives may become weak, an adult’s ties with his own parents and even with their parents often remain remarkably strong. And if many younger people are today trying to lead more emotionally independent lives, it is often not without a sense of guilt, or an awareness of the pain it causes to their parents. This may be so in any country: it is especially sharp in France.31. In France, people used to _________.A. value more their families than the countryB. attach most importance to their friendsC. regard their cousins and uncles more important than their parentsD. consider the local community prior to the state32. The “nuclear family” will not include _________.A. fatherB. motherC. childrenD. grandparents33. The rural families are growing smaller because _________.65316475.doc 5A. many young men and women were killed in the warB. more and more people choose to stay singleC. more and more families have only one childD. many young men and women are leaving the country for cities34. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The French have given up their clan loyalties to independence.B. Family gathering has become less necessary nowadays.C. Many younger couples spend weekends and holidays themselves or with a few friends.D. The old values still have their influence today.35. What does “this” in the last sentence of the passage refer to ?A.Loyalty to the family.B. Emotionally independence.C. Sense of guilt.D. Difference between old values and new values.Passage FourWhen it comes to walking off those excesses, a lengthy hike once a day will do you far more good than nipping down to (一溜烟跑) the shops every couple of hours — even if the short walks add up to the same amount of time, say exercise researchers in Britain. But walks of any length beat sitting at home with your feet up and watching television, they stress.Some researchers in Britain reached these conclusions after putting 56 couch potatoes through an 18-week course of daily walks.They found that longer walks produce the most beneficial changes to the composition of blood fats, but walks of any length improve the fitness of the heart.In the study, the normally inactive subjects were divided into three roughly equal groups. The “long walkers” took a hike of between 20 and 40 minutes every day. “Intermediate walkers” had two rounds of jogging of 10 to 15 minutes, and “short walkers” did three stints of 90 to 110 minutes. The controls sat at home, as usual.At the start and end of the 18 weeks, the health and fitness of each group were measured and it was found that the long walkers were healthiest, as measured by altered fat profiles in their blood.At the end, each litre of blood from the long walkers contained an average 0. 05 grains less apolipoprotein (阿朴脂蛋白) II, a “bad” fat that is linked with heart disease. This was more than twice the drop seen in the intermediate walkers, and five times that in short walkers. In the controls, the level of this fat stayed the same. The drop in apolipoprotein II in the long walkers was matched by a rise in the blood level of apolipoprotein I, a “good” fat that is associated with smooth arteries.36. According to the researchers, _________ is least beneficial to your health.A. taking a lengthy hike once a dayB. going shopping several times every dayC. doing jogging every morningD. sitting in the sofa watching TV every evening37. “Couch potato” is used to refer to a kind of _________.A. farmersB. vegetablesC. movie-goersD. TV viewers38. Which of the following statement is FALSE?A. Longer walks benefit our composition of blood fats.B. The subjects in the study all often watch TV.C. Only longer walks benefit our health.D. The subjects in the study may not like exercises.39. The subjects are divided into ________ groups.65316475.doc 6A. 4B. 3C. 2D. 140. Why is long walk beneficial to our heart?A. It help us lose weight.B. It leads to the drop in apolipoprotein I.C. It leads to the drop in apolipoprotein II.D. It keeps us from watching TV.III．Vocabulary and Structure (15%)41. No one can avoid being influenced by advertisements, for they exert a ________ influence on us.A. darkB. subtleC. lightD. vague42.
