    　　Is there anything more important than health? I don’t think so．Wise people say, “Health is the greatest wealth．” You can’t be good at your studies or work when you are ill．

    　　If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should go to the doctor．

    　　The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed．After that he will advise some treatments, or some medicine．The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice．

    　　Speaking about doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funny story．

    　　An old gentleman came to see the doctor．The man was very ill．He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs．The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease．

    　　He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest．He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks．In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule：“Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is．” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day．

    　　A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office．He looked cheerful and happy．He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man．

    　　“But you know, doctor, ” he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age．”

    (1)

    [　　]

    A．

    B．

    after he has examined the patient

    C．

    if the patient doesn’t take medicine

    D．

    unless the patient feels pain

    he was feeling better than ever

    B．

    he wasn’t a healthy man

    C．

    he was feeling worse than before

    D．

    he would be well again

    (3)

    From the last sentence of the passage, we learn the man ________ before the doctor told him not to smoke more than one cigarette a day．

    was a heavy smoker

    B．

    didn’t smoke so much

    　　All young people dream of travelling the world．They are restless and very eager to see new sights．However, they have little idea how they would really do it if given the chance．Because their knowledge of geography is quite limited, they seldom know much about the places they wish to visit or how they would get there．

    　　Already hundreds of thousands of Chinese student tourists are visiting these places-Wuyi, Lhasa, Lijiang, Dali, Vientiane and Phnom Penh．Indeed, these students will soon be the most travelled generation in China's long history．The World Tourist Organization predicts that a quarter of a century from now the number of Chinese tourists going abroad will be twenty times what it is today．The largest percentage of these tourists will visit Southeast Asia．Not all Chinese who travel abroad will be tourists, however．More and more youths are deciding to volunteer their skills in this region; much like their peers in th-e Peace Corps and VSO．

    　　Critical thinking skills required include planning for a trip and solving problems after the trip has begun．The focus is on how to read an atlas(地图集)to make travel plans and how to find ways of travelling．An atlas offers a wealth of information about geography and is one way to increase students' awareness of their global environment．Use of an atlas especially addresses the needs of students with different visual and spatial(空间的)learning styles．

    [　　]

    A．

    China

    B．

    Europe

    C．

    Vietnam

    D．

    Asia

    阅读理解

    　　You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight．They hit one another hard．At the start they only fight with their fists(拳头)．But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs．And so it goes on until one of the men crashes through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below．He is dead!

    　　Of course he isn't really dead．With any luck he isn't even hurt．Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are professionals(专业人士)．They do this for a living．These men are called stuntmen(替身演员)．That is to say, they perform tricks．

    　　There are two sides to their work．．They actually do most of the things you see on the screen．For example, they fall from a high building．However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress(床垫)．Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar!

    　　But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training．Often a stuntman's success depends on careful timing(时间测量)．For example, when he is "blown up"in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of th explosion(爆炸)just at the right moment．

    　　Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives．They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed．A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff(悬崖)a thousand feet high．His parachute failed to open, and he was killed．

    　　In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only．Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action．For nowadays there are stunt-girls too!

    (1)

    Stuntmen are those who ________

    [　　]

    A．

    often dress up as actors

    B．

    prefer to lead dangerous lives

    C．

    often perform seemingly dangerous actions

    D．

    often fight each other for their lives

    (2)

    Stuntmen earn their living by ________

    [　　]

    A．

    playing their dirty tricks

    B．

    selling their special skills

    C．

    jumping out of high windows

    D．

    jumping from fast moving trains

    (3)

    Usually when a stuntman falls from a high building ________

    [　　]

    A．

    he needs little protection

    B．

    he will be covered with a mattress

    C．

    his life is endangered

    D．

    his safety is generally all right

    (4)

    What can be inferred from the author's example of the Norwegian stuntman?

    [　　]

    A．

    Sometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman．

    B．

    The percentage of serious accidents is high

    C．

    Parachutes must be of good quality．

    D．

    The cliff is too high．

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

    　　There are people in Italy who can't stand soccer．Not all Canadians love hockey．A similar situation exists in America, where there are those individuals you may be one of them who frown when somebody mentions baseball．Baseball to them means boring hours watching grown men in funny tight outfits standing around in a field staring away while very little of anything happens．They tell you it's a game better suited to the 19 th century, slow, quiet, and gentlemanly．These are the same people you may be one of them who love football because there's the sport that values “the hit”．

    　　By contrast, baseball seems abstract, cool, silent, still．

    　　On TV the game is divided into a dozen perspectives, replays, close-ups．The geometry(几何学) of the game, however, is essential to understanding it．You will view the game from one point as a painter does his subject; you may, of course, project yourself into the game．It is in this projection that the game affords so much space and time for involvement．The TV won't do it for you．

    　　Take, for example, the third baseman．You sit behind the third base and you watch him watching home plate．His legs are apart, knees flexed(弯曲)．His arms hang loose．He does a lot of this．The skeptic(怀疑论者) still cannot think of any other sports so still, so passive．But watch what happens every time the pitcher throws：the third baseman goes up on his toes, flexes his arms or brings the glove to a point in front of him, takes a step right or left, backward or forward, perhaps he glances across the field to check his first baseman's position．Suppose the pitch is a ball．“Nothing happened,” you say．“I could have had my eyes closed．”

    　　The skeptic and the innocent must play the game．And this involvement in the stands is no more intellectual than listening to music is．Watch the third baseman．Smooth the dirt in front of you with one foot; smooth the pocket in your glove; watch the eyes of the batter, the speed of the bat, the sound of ball on wood．If football is a symphony of movement and theatre, baseball is chamber music, a spacious interlocking(连锁) of notes, chorus(和声) and responses．

    (1)

    The passage is mainly concerned with ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    the different tastes of people for sports

    B．

    the superiority of football

    C．

    the attraction of baseball

    D．

    the different characteristics of sports

    (2)

    Those who don't like baseball may complain that ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    it is only to the taste of the old

    B．

    it is not exciting enough

    C．

    it involves fewer players than football

    D．

    it is pretentious and looks funny

    (3)

    The author admits that ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    baseball is too peaceful for the young

    B．

    football is more attracting than baseball

    C．

    baseball is more interesting than football

    D．

    baseball may seem boring when watched on TV

    (4)

    By stating “I could have had my eyes closed．” the author means (4 th paragraph last sentence) ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    Even if the third baseman closed his eyes a moment ago, it could make no difference to the result

    B．

    The third baseman is so good at baseball that he could finish the game with eyes closed all the time and do his work well

    C．

    The consequence was so bad that he could not bear to see it

    D．

    The third baseman would rather sleep than play the game
