AIn most languages, a greeting is usually followed by “small talk”. Small talk means the little things we talk about at the start of a conversation. In English-speaking countries people oftenmake small talk about the weather. “Nice day, isn’t it？” “Terrible weather, isn’t it？” But there is something special about small talk. It must be about something that both people have the same opinion about. The purpose of small talk is to let both people agree on something. This makes meeting people easier and more comfortable. In the UK people usually agree about the weather, so it is a safe topic for small talk. But people often disagree about religion or politics so these are not suitable topics for small talk. The topics for small talk also depend on where the conversation is taking place. At football matches, people make small talk about the game they are watching. “Great game, isn’t it？” At bus-stops, people may comment on the transport system. “The bus service is terrible, isn’t it？”21. Small talk is ________.A. a kind of conversation with short wordsB. a greeting used when people meet each otherC. to let people disagree about somethingD. something we talk about to start a conversation22.

It looked at the six most common sleeping positions and which personalities tend to match them. Have a look.1. Fetus （胎儿） position – This is the most common sleeping position. About 41 percent of theparticipants said they sleep in this position. These sleepers may appear to be strong but they are usually sensitive （敏感的） and shy. The more they curl （蜷缩） up, the more worried they are.2. Log position （树干睡姿）– This is the second most common position. People who sleep like alog are usually stubborn.3. Yearner position （向往型睡姿）– This position says that you are open-minded and eager （急切的）to face challenges.4. Soldier position –These sleepers lie on their backs with their arms down and close to thebody. They are usually reserved and quiet.5. Freefall position – People who sleep in this position are outgoing （外向的） but feel a lack ofcontrol in their lives. This is the least comfortable position.6. Starfish position – People who sleep like this are good listeners, helpful, and uncomfortablebeing the center of attention.25. What is the main idea of this passage？A.

SleepersCMany countries follow special customs when a child’s baby teeth fall out. Many of these customs tell stories about animals taking the teeth.For example, Koreans have the custom of throwing the fallen tooth onto the roof of a house so that a magpie （喜鹊）can take the tooth away and bring a new tooth for the child. This custom is also followed by some other Asian countries, such as Japan and Vietnam.Other countries, though, have tooth customs about other animals. In Mexico and Spain, for example, it is thought that a mouse takes a fallen tooth away and leaves some money. But in Mongolia, it is dogs that take children’s teeth away. Dogs are highly respected in Mongolian culture. It is believed that the new tooth will grow strong if the baby tooth is fed to a dog, so parents in Mongolia will put their children’s fallen teeth in a piece of meat and feed it to a dog.In France and the USA, a child will put a fallen tooth under his or her pillow before going tobed. It is thought that in the early morning, when the child is still sleeping, the Tooth Fairy will take the tooth away and leave something else under the pillow. What she will leave is hard to know. It is said that in France the Tooth Fairy may leave some candies; however, in the United States, she may leave money.28. Koreans throw a tooth onto the roof of a house in order to __________.A. get moneyB. feed magpiesC. get candiesD. get a new tooth29. In Vietnam, if a child’s tooth falls out, he or she will __________.A. throw it onto the roof of a houseB. feed it to a mouseC. put it in a piece of meat and feed the meat to a dogD. leave it to the Tooth Fairy30. From the last paragraph, we can know that in France and the USA _________.A. a child will put his or her fallen tooth beside the pillowB. the Tooth Fairy takes the fallen teeth away at midnightC. the Tooth Fairy will leave some candies to the children after taking the fallen teeth awayD. no one knows for sure what the Tooth Fairy will leave to the children after taking the fallenteeth away31. The passage is mainly about ___________.A. customs about fallen teeth in western countriesB. customs about fallen teeth in different countriesC. stories about human teethD. stories about some animalsDIn recent years, there has been a steady attack on salt from the doctors：salt is bad for you—regardless of your health. Politicians also got aboard. “There is a direct relationship,” US Congressman Neal Smith said, “between the amount of sodium（钠） a person consumes and heart disease, circulatory（循环的）disorders, stroke and even early death.”Frightening, if true! But many doctors and medical researchers are now beginning to feel the salt scare has gone too far. “All these remarks and cry about salt is unnecessary,” Dr. Dustan insists. “For most of us it probably does not make much difference how much salt we eat.” Dusta n’s most recent short-term study of 150 people showed that those with normal blood pressure experienced no change at all when placed on an extremely low-salt diet, or later when salt was reintroduced. Of the hypertensive（高血压的） patients, however, half of those on the low-salt diet did experience a drop in blood pressure, which returned to previous level when salt was reintroduced.“An adequate to somewhat excessive（过度的） salt intake has probably saved many more lives than it has cost in the general popula tion,” said Dr. John H Laragh. “So an opinion that the whole population should avoid salt makes no sense.”Medical experts agree that everyone should practice reasonable “moderation”（节制） in salt consumption. For the average person, a moderate amount might run from four to ten grams a day, or roughly 1/2 to 1/3 teaspoons. One to two grams of salt would come from the natural sodium in food. The rest would be added in processing, preparation or at the table. “Na is not your enemy,” says Comek’s Dr. Laragh. “Salt is the No.1 natural component of all human tissue, and the idea that you do not need it is wrong. Unless your doctor has proven that you have a salt-related health problem, there is no reason to give it up.”32．Why is salt attacked by doctors and politicians？A. It’s unnecessary.B. It does no good to human health..C. It is hated by most people.D. It will surely lead to heart disease and circulatory disorders. 33．From Dr. Dustan’s study in Paragraph 2 we can infer that _____.A．a low-salt diet may be good to some patientsB．the amount of salt intake has nothing to do with one’s blood pressureC．the reduction of salt intake can completely cure a hypertensive patientD．an extremely low-salt diet makes no difference to anyone34．In the 3rd paragraph, Dr. Laragh implied that _____.A．people should not be afraid of taking much excessive saltB．doctors should not always advise people to avoid saltC．an adequate to somewhat excessive salt intake is suggested to ill peopleD．excessive salt intake has killed some patients in the general population35．What is the experts’ advice for average people on salt consumption？A．They should increase salt intake through sodium pills.B．They should avoid salt as often as possible.C．They should consume 1/2 to 1/3 teaspoons of salt a day. D．They needn’t care about how much salt they consume.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
