    Now I know that we black people are much more likely to have high blood pressure and diabetes (糖尿病) than white people. And they often lead to heart attacks and other untreated diseases. For example, black people are three to four times more likely than white people to have high blood pressure and twice as likely as the white population to die of a stroke (中风).
    New research has found out the surprisingly high levels of salt in many of black people’s favorite meals. I stopped putting extra salt in my food at the table long ago and I try to cut down on the salt. I use in cooking. The suggested daily level of salt for adults is 6 grams. It is easy to see that if you try not to eat too many processed (加工过的) foods and use salt in your cooking within the limit, you won’t reach more than the daily level.
    The research showed how much salt there is in some foods that we buy from restaurants and takeaways. An average salad with rice and peas has 6.2 grams of salt. This is more salt than you are supposed to eat for the whole day.
    A researcher talked about the importance of home cooking rather than take-outs. At home, he pointed out, not only can you hold control of the salt bottle, but also you can create tasty food which is low on salt. The researcher later provided curry goat and rice and peas. They were low on salt, but completely delicious.
    I do not suppose Jamaicans are going to stop buying takeaways soon. But if you suffer from high blood pressure, it is probably better not to buy them often.
    小题1:The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 1 refers to _______.
    A．white peopleB．black people
    C．untreated diseasesD．high blood pressure and diabetes
    小题2:What has the new research found out according to Paragraph 2?
    A．Black people take in too much salt.
    B．Black people’s meals are very special.
    C．Processed foods have too much salt in them.
    D．6 grams of salt per day is enough for an adult.
    小题3:What would the writer probably suggest black people do?
    A．Order no salad in a restaurant.B．Take in no salt for several days.
    C．Stop cooking their favorite meals.D．Eat less takeaways.
    小题4:The researcher provided curry goat and rice and peas in order to _______.
    A．thank those who came to his home for his research
    B．let people know that eating less salt makes one healthier
    C．show that tasty food with less salt can be made at home
    D．prove the less salt the food has the more delicious it is
    小题5:What would be the best title for this passage?
    A．Watch the saltB．Take care, black people
    C．Say no to takeawaysD．Say no to high blood pressure

    小题1:D

    It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.
    Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail(详细地), either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.
    Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.
    I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.
    小题1:People with little education usually ____.
    A．spend a long time in schoolB．have a good chance to get a job
    C．spend the best years to choose jobsD．have fewer chances to get a good job
    小题2:The earliest education was probably to ______.
    A．make a man lead a better lifeB．teach a man to write and think
    C．make people get a way of livingD．teach people to read good books
    小题3:The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “_______” in Chinese.
    A．圆满的B．崭新的C．公平的D．全面的
    小题4:It is expected that educated people will be able to _____.
    A．accept education as a way of living
    B．take an interest in the whole world
    C．develop their abilities to make plays
    D．learn subjects like language and math
    小题5:The passage mainly tells us that _______.
    A．education should make a man improve
    B．people can get education in a short time
    C．people should be able to get better paying jobs
    D．all subjects are so important for a way of living

    "Earworms", some people call them. Songs that get stuck in your head go round and round, sometimes for days, sometimes for months. For no clear reason you cannot help yourself from humming or singing a tune by Lady Gaga.
    To a psychologist, the most interesting thing about earworms is that they show a part of our mind that is clearly outside of our control. Earworms arrive without permission and refuse to leave when we tell them to. They are parasites (寄生虫) living in a part of our minds.
    If you have got an earworm you can suffer an attack of it simply by someone mentioning the tune, without having to hear it. This proves that earworms are a part of long-term memory. Humans have an "inner ear", for remembering phone numbers, for instance. When it gets infected with earworms, rather than review our plans for the day, or lists of things to remember, the inner ear gets stuck on a few short bars of music or a couple of phrases from a song. A part of us that we normally do not have to think about, that should just do what we ask, has been turned against us, upsetting us with a request that we never asked for. The mind is an inner world which we do not have complete knowledge of, or have control over.
    Fortunately psychology can provide some advice on how to deal with an uncontrollable mind. Consider the famous "don’t think of a white bear" problem, which tells you to try not to think about white bears, or to do something else, to avoid both thinking of the white bear and not thinking of the white bear. For earworms, the solution may be the same. Our inner ear has become infected with an earworm. This is a part not under our control, so just sending in instructions to "shut up" is unlikely to be of much help (and has been shown to make it worse). Much better is to employ the inner ear in another task. If your mind is poisoned by Brittany Spears’ Toxic, for instance, then try singing Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You out Of My Head. Let me know if it works!
    小题1:According to the passage, earworms are ______.
    A．songs that keep going round in our mind
    B．worms that live in a part of our brain
    C．tunes by pop singers like Lady Gaga
    D．parasites clearly under our control
    小题2:Which of the following statements is TRUE?
    A．Singing songs may get earworms out of your head.
    B．Earworms are used for keeping long-term memory.
    C．Humans do not have complete control over their mind.
    D．You won’t suffer from earworms unless you hear the song.
    小题3:What does “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
    A．The instruction to shut up your mind.
    B．“Don’t think of the white bear” problem.
    C．Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You out Of My Head.
    D．Using the earworm-infected inner ear in another task.
    小题4:What is the passage mainly about?
    A．The causes and influences of earworms.
    B．What earworms are and how to deal with them.
    C．How to clear earworms out of your head.
    D．The relation between earworms and popular songs.

    Thirty years ago, Lake Ponkapog in Hartwell, New Jersey, was full of life. Many birds and animals lived beside the water, which was full of fish. Now there are few birds, animals, and fish. The lake water is polluted. It is in a colour of dirty brown, and it is filled with strange plants.
    How did this happen? First, we must think about how water gets into Lake Ponkapog. When it rains, water comes into the lake from all around. In the past, there were forests all round Lake Ponkapog, so the rainwater was clean.
    Now there are many homes around the lake. People often use the chemicals (化学制品)in their gardens. They use other chemicals inside their houses for cleaning and killing insects. There are also many businesses. Businesses use chemicals in their machines of shops. Other chemicals fall onto the ground from cars or trucks. When it rains, the rainwater picks up all the chemicals from home and businesses and then carries them into the lake . They pollute the water and kill the animals.
    Boats on the lake are also a problem. Lake Ponkapog is a popular place for motorboats（汽船）. But oil and gas from boats often get into the lake. So more bad chemicals go into the water this way.
    People in Hartwell are worried . They love their lake and want to save it. Will it be possible? A clean lake must have clean rainwater going into it. Clean rainwater is possible only if people are more careful about chemicals at home and at other chemicals on the ground. And they mustn’t use motorboats any more on the lake. All these may change people’s lives. Only then can Lake Ponkapog be a beautiful, clean lake again.
    小题1:In the past, the water in Lake Ponkapog was made clean by ________.
    A．forestsB．rainC．birdsD．fish
    小题2:Chemicals from homes and businesses _________.
    A．are always cleanB．can help the animals

    小题3:Cleaner rainwater will mean _________ .
    A．more boats on the lakeB．more dirty things in the lake
    C．a cleaner lakeD．a dirty lake
    小题4:To save Lake Ponkapog, people need to ________.
    A．be more careful about chemicals B．use the water
    C．grow fewer plants in the gardens D．use more motorboats on the lake
    小题5:The passage is about ________.
    A．boats on the Lake PankapogB．why the water is dirty in Lake Ponkapog

    Winter is dangerous because it’s so difficult to know what is going to happen and accidents take place so easily. Fog can be waiting to meet you over the top of a hill. Ice might be hiding under the melting(融化)snow, waiting ahead to send you off the road. The car coming to you may suddenly slip across the road.
    Rule Number One for driving on icy roads is to drive smoothly(平稳地). Sudden movements can make a car very difficult to control. So every time you either start or stop your car, increase or reduce your speed, you must be as gentle and slow as possible. Suppose you are driving with a full cup of hot coffee on the seat next to you. Drive so that you wouldn’t spill(溅) it.
    Rule Number Two is to pay attention to what might happen. The more ice there is, the further down the road you have to look. Test how long it takes to gently stop your car. Remember that you may be driving more quickly than you think. Generally, allow twice of your usual stopping distance when the road is wet, three times this distance on snow, and even more on ice. Try to stay in control of your car at all times and you will not get into trouble.
    小题1:The writer tries to       in this passage.
    A．show his dislikes about bad winter weather
    B．give information about winter weather
    C．ask people not to drive in winter
    D．advise people about safe driving in winter
    小题2:According to the passage, the writer thinks that      .
    A．people should not drive in the snow
    B．drivers should think more about problems in winter driving
    C．people drive too fast in winter
    D．winter drivers should stop their cars less
    小题3:In the passage the writer talks about a cup of coffee     .
    A．to show how important smooth movements are
    B．to ask the drivers to bring some soft drinks with them
    C．to tell the drivers to be more relaxed
    D．to show how it can be spilled
    小题4:Which of the following is NOT TRUE?    
    A．Traffic accidents take place easily in winter.
    B．Fog and melting snow often cause car accidents.
    C．The stopping distance on ice is as long as the usual one.
    D．In winter you should drive your car with great care.
    小题5:Which traffic sign shows the main idea of the passage?     

    A.              B.

    C.              D.
