People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test . During the test , these people were given all kinds of breakfasts , and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had different kinds of breakfasts.The rules show that if a person eats a right breakfast , he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit , eggs, bread and milk before going to school ,he or she will learn more quickly and listen more carefully in class.The result is opposite to what some people think . Having no breakfast will not help them lose weight . This is because they are so hungry at noon that eat too much for lunch . They will gainweight instead of losing it . You will lose weight if you reduce your other meals.1.

The more breakfast you have, the more quickly you will learn in class.D.

One out of every six Americans work at putting together the pars of cars , driving trucks , building roads or filling cars and trucks with gas. Americans won't live without cars!Most Americans would find it hard to think what life would look like without cars. However , some have realized the serious problems of the air pollution that is caused by the car. The polluted air becomes poisonous and dangerous to health.One way to get rid of the polluted air is to build a car that does not pollute. That 's what several of the large car factories have been trying to do . But to build a clean car is easier said than done. Progress in this field has been slow.Anoth er way is to take the place of the car engine by something else. Inventors are now working on steam cars as well as electric cars. Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that pleases man.To prevent the world from being polluted by cars, we'll have to make some changes in the way many of us live. Americans , for example , have to cut down on the number of their total cars. They are encouraged to travel and go to work by bicycle . Bicycling is thought to h elp keep the air clean.But this change does not come easily -a large number of workers may find themselves without jobs if a car factory closes down. Thus the problem of air pollution would become less important than that of unemployment.Although cars have led us to a better life, they have also brought us new problems.5. How many ways to get rid of air pollution are suggested in this article by the writer?A. OneB. TwoC. ThreeD. Four6. Large car factories are trying to build a clean car, ___________.A. which is clean itselfB. which is used to clean streetsC. which does not pollute the airD. which is easier to make7. If the number of cars is cut down , the most serious problem to American workers is __________.A. to have no work to doB. to keep the air cleanC. to get a better lifeD. to go to work by bike8. What is the conclusion of the writer?A. Bicycling is the only way out .B. The number of cars must be cut down .C .Cars bring us nothing but serious problems.D. Cars bring us not only a better life but serious problems.CAlmost every family in America or England buys at least one copy of a newspaper each day. Some people buy as many as two or three different papers.Why do people read newspapers?Newspapers supply us with news about events in our hometowns, in our country, and in other parts of the world. Today we can read about important things that took place in foreign countries on the same day they happened, even in countries far away. But hundreds of years ago, news of things took months or even years to travel from one country to another. In those times, news was often passed from one person to another and never completely true. Newspapers today supply us with more than just what happened in our country or in other countries. If we want to know what the weather will be like, we can read the weather reports. If we want to find out what films are being shown, or what plays or concerts we can go to we can look in the newspapers.In many countries people put notices in newspapers if they are trying to get a job, hunting for a house or rooms that they can rent, or even when looking for a person who is lost.9．This article tells us ________.A. most people in America or England read newspapers every dayB. all people in America or England read newspapers every dayC. every person in America or England reads newspapers every dayD. all families in America or England read newspapers every day10. Newspapers supply us with ________.A. only home newsB. only world newsC. home news and world newsD. important things11. Today we can read in our newspapers about important events________.A. that took place hundreds of years agoB. that took place in faraway countries soon after they happenedC. that will take place in foreign countriesD. that will take place in the world12. Which is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. The habit of reading newspapers is found among most people.B. Newspapers not only supply us with news from all over the world but also give us a lot of useful information.C. Hundreds of years ago news was not completely true because it was told in spoken words.D. If you have no place to live in, you can put notice in a newspaper and then you will certainly get a room to live in.DWhen I was growing up, I was embarrassed (困惑) to be seen with my father. He was badly crippled (跛脚) and very short , and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for balance, p eople would stare. I would be ashamed of the unwanted attention. If ever noticed or bothered, he never let on.It was difficult to walk together-his steps slow, mine impatien t-and because of that, we didn’t say much and we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “You set the pace. I will try to follow you.”Our usual walk was to or from the subway (地铁), which was how he got to work. He wen t to work sick, and even in bad weather. He almost never missed a day, and would make it to the office even if others could not .It was a matter of pride for him.When snow or ice was on the ground, it was impossible for him to walk , even with help. At such times my sister or I would pull him through the streets of Brooklyn, N. Y., on a child’s sleigh to the subway entrance .Once there, he would try to grasp handrail until he reached the lower steps that the warmer tunnel air kept ice free. In Manhattan the subway station was the basement of his office building, and he would not have to go outside again until we met him in Brooklyn on his way home.When I think of it now, I am surprised at how much courage it must have tak en for a grown man to suffer from shame and disability. And I am also surprised at how he did it -- without bitterness or complaint.He never talked about himself as an object of pity, nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or able. What he looked for in others was a “good heart,”and if he found one, the owner was good enough for him.Now that I am older, I believe that is a proper standard (标准) by which to judge people, even though I still don’t know exactly what a “good heart”is. But I know the times I don’t have one myself.He has been away many years now, but I think of him often. I wonder if he sensed my reluctance to be seen with him during our walks. If he did, I am sorry I never told him how sorry I was, how unworthy I was, how I regretted it. I think of him when I complain about my troubles, when I am envious of another’s good fortune, when I don’t have a “good heart”.59. How did the man treat his father when he was young?A.

By bike第三部分：词汇应用（共13分）1. The children’s mother was very c________ about their safety when they didn’t come back from school at the usual time.2. I s________ from a bad cold the other day.
