19.Wisdom teeth are normally the last teeth to appear.This usually happens when people are in their late teen years or early twenties,in other words,when they are older and wiser.
Wisdom teeth can grow into place normally and never cause a problem.But often there is not enough room for them in the mouth; they might crowd other teeth.Sometimes they even push sideways through the gums (齿龈)
An impacted wisdom tooth is one that fails to completely rise through the gums.Wisdom teeth that only partly break through can leave space for bacteria to enter around the teeth.Infection (感染) is a risk in these cases.
Wisdom teeth that are not well lined and become impacted are often removed.The American Dental Association says removal is generally advised when wisdom teeth only partly break through the gums.Removal is also advised if there is a chance that wisdom teeth are poorly lined.The best time to remove is before the teeth cause any problems or pain.Young adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removal.
But why do we have wisdom teeth if we often need to get them removed?One theory has to do with our diets.Scientists say the diet of ancient humans probably required more chewing teeth.Life was probably a little rougher on the teeth back then,too.So it was good to have extras.
68.According to the passage,which of the following statements is NOT true?A
A.Just older and wiser people can have wisdom teeth
B.Wisdom teeth can cause problems if not in their right place
C.Impacted wisdom teeth can't grow out of the gum fully
D.Wisdom teeth that only partly break can get bacterial infections
69.Wisdom teeth should be removedC
A.when they break through the gums
B.when they are below the gums
C.if they are not well lined or get impacted
D.if they take up enough room in the mouth
70.We can learn from the passage thatA
A.impacted wisdom teeth have the risk of getting infected
B.ancient humans need chewing teeth because of their happy life
C.older adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removal
D.more chewing teeth are needed for the diet of modern humans
71.The main purpose of the passage is toD
A.advise             B.persuade             C.comment              D.introduce.

9.You know how wonderful you are,and you know that others know how wonderful you are,but what do you do when admiration crosses over the line into jealousy(嫉妒)?For most teens there will come a day when you realize that one of your friends is jealous and that this jealousy is hurting your friendship.When this happens it can seem like there is nothing that you can do,but the good news is that there is.Don't let jealousy spoil your relationships.Deal with it confidently and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.
It can be hard to walk up to a friend and ask them what the problem is,but if you want to save your friendship you'll have to do just that.Don't approach them and ask why they are jealous of you unless of course you want to appear totally conceited (逞能),just take some time alone with them and let them know that you've been feeling like there's been something coming between you.If they refuse to respond,then use the opportunity to explain how you have been feeling.Chances are that something you say will strike a nerve and your friend will open up as well.
When you figure out what is annoying your friend,ask him or her what (s)he thinks would make the situation better.If,for example,(s)he says that (s)he feels like (s)he doesn't get to spend any time with you because of your being off with your new friends from the swim team then maybe you could invite her along the next time or block off one day a week for just the two of[.Com]you.Remember,though,that whatever solution you decide on should be a compromise(妥协).Don't limit your own talents or opportunities simply because your friend is unhappy.Try instead to include him or her in your new life and see how that works out.
Even the best of friendships can be ruined by jealousy.This destructive emotion is rarely productive and can turn best friends into worst enemies.Before taking extreme action,chat with your jealous friend to see if the two of you can work out a compromise.If you can't,be prepared to know exactly how far you will go to keep your friend and how far you won't.
33.What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 2?A
A.How to solve the problem of jealousy.
B.Why we need to solve the problem of jealousy.
C.How to explain your jealousy to your friends.
D.Why it is hard to deal with the problem of jealousy.
34.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?D
A.There's always a solution to solve the problem of jealousy.
B.Jealousy can turn best friends into worst enemies.
C.You should go a long way with your friend to work out a solution
D.You may lose a friend to keep your own gifts,chances or self-development.
35.This passage is mainly intended forC.
A.female readers      
B.students   
C.teenagers       
D.best friends.

10.Moral science is taught as a subject in most schools but with little effect.Perhaps part of the problem lies in the fact that morality(道德)is not a science,strictly speaking.It is too much of a social phenomenon,and also has too much of the personal and subjective(主观的)things mixed within.Besides,morality itself changes with generations.So it is impossible to be defined in a textbook.
    I remember sitting through forty minutes of moral lessons,which told stories about little children who never told lies and were rewarded for their goodness.It had little effect and left no impression on me,though.
    If moral science has to be taught as a subject in schools,it needs a participatory(参与其中的)approach.When you tell a child about morals,you also have to deal with social norms(规范)and cultural differences.You have to explain that morality can be subjective,and be able to co-exist in society.You will probably have to refer to the morals of the present time.
    The best way to tell a child how to live is to show him what is valued.If a child likes his friend,you have to make the child think about why.Once the child notices and recognizes goodness in others,he or she is likely to develop it as well.
    In fact,children learn most of their morals by watching people around them.They absorb behavior patterns from teachers and older students.They watch to see what is rewarded and who is punished.They learn on the sports field and through social work.Moral science lessons should simply consist of letting them live and interact,and watch you support correct values and reward good behavior.

67.Which is NOT the reason that moral science is taught in schools but with little effect?D
  A.Morality doesn't strictly belong to a science
  B.Morality is more like a social phenomenon.
  C.Different generations have different moral ideas.
  D.Morality can't be written down in textbooks.
68.The author describes his own experience of having moral lessons in order toC
  A.explain telling lies is not moral for little children.
  B.advise people should be rewarded for their goodness.
  C.prove moral lessons in schools have little effect.
  D.show he has no opinions about moral science.
69.When you tell a child about morals,you shouldB.
  A.teach him to share personal moral ideas with others
  B.tell him about social norms and cultural differences
  C.explain that nobody can influence his moral ideas.
  D.say that the present morals are likely to be changed
70.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A.
  A.The best way of teaching children about morals.
  B.The value of teachers'setting a good example
  C.The influence of people's behavior on morals.
  D.The importance of rewarding good behavior.

7.An African-born British scientist received an environment research prize for show-ing how bees can be used to reduce conflict between people and elephants.Lucy King's work proved that beehive(峰房)"fences"can keep elephants out of African farmers'fields.The animals are scared of bees,which can bite them inside their long noses,and flee when they hear buzzing(蜂鸣声).
Dr King's work offers an intelligent solution to an age-old challenge,while providing further confirmation of the importance of bees to people and a really clever way of preserving the world's largest land animal for current and future generations.Working in Kenya,Dr King and her team showed that more than 90% of elephants will flee when they hear the sounds of buzzing bees.Afterwards,they also found that elephants produce a special sound to warn their fellows of the danger.They used the findings to construct barriers where beehives are woven into a fence,keeping the elephants away from places where people live and grow food.
 A two-year project involving 34 farms showed that elephants trying to go through the fences would shake them,disturbing the bees.Later,the fences were adopted by farming communities in three Kenyan districts--who also made increased amounts of money from selling honey.
As Africa's population grows,competition for space between people and elephants is becoming more serious,and there are fatalities on both sides.The same is true in parts of Asia.Sri Lanka alone sees the deaths of all estimated 60 people and 200 elephants each year from conflict.
Lucy King now wants to see whether the Kenyan technique will work in other parts of Africa--and perhaps,eventually,in Asia.

61.The underlined part in Paragraph 1 means the same asC
A.intelligent solution to an age-old challenge.
B.confirmation of the importance of bees to people
C.competition for space between people and elephants    
D.way of preserving the world's largest land animal
62.Which of the following orders of events correctly shows how Dr King's project works?B
①Beehive fences are built around a Farm.
②Elephants hear the buzzing and run away.
③Bees are disturbed and fly out of the beehives.
④Elephants trying to enter the farm shake the fences.
A.①→②→③→④B.①→④→③→②
C.④→③→②→①D.①→②→④→③
63.Dr King's solution is described as"intelligent"becauseD.
A.it successfully keeps elephants out of African farmers'fields
B.the fences Were adopted by farming communities in three Kenyan districts
C.more than 90% of elephants flee when they hear the sounds of buzzing bees
D.it protects crops.produces honey and preserves the dephant at the same time
64.The underlined word"fatalities"in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning toA.
A deaths    B.communities    C.population    D.fences
65.Which of the following is true according to the passage?D
A.Dr king was born in Britain.
B.Most elephants scare bees.
C.The technique has proved to work well in Asia,too.
D.Conflicts between people and elephants are rather serious.

14.Recently,university students around the world were asked to volunteer in a global experiment called Unplugged.It was designed to see how young people would react if they were asked to observe a total media ban by unplugging all forms of media devices for 24 hours.
Unplugged is being run by Dr Roman Gerodimos,a lecturer in Communication and Journalism at Bournemouth University.During the experiment,Dr Gerodimos said there were already  signs of how much the exercise affected volunteers.He said:"They're reporting withdrawal symptoms,overeating,feeling nervous,isolated and disconnected."
During their 24-hour test,three of the experiment's participants were followed around by a BBC reporter plus cameraman.They were asked to write down 100 lines about their day offline,but of course,they all waited until the next day when they had access to their laptops.
Elliot Day wrote:"Today,my whole morning routine was thrown up into the air.Despite being  aware of the social importance of the media,I was surprised by how empty my life felt without the radio or newspapers."
From Caroline Scott,we read:"I didn't expect it,but being deprived of the media for 24 hours resulted in my day-to-day activities becoming so much harder to carry out than usual…I didn't break out in a cold sweat like our lecturer expected us all to,but It's not something l would like to do again!"
And Charlotte Gay wrote:"I have to say the most difficult item for me to be without has been  my  mobile;not  only is it a social device,it's  my main access point of communication."
Earlier in the year,a UK government study found that in the UK we spend about half our waking hours using the media,often plugged into several things at once.So,with technology continuing to develop at an alarming rate,how much time will you set aside for sleep in the future?
71.What can we learn about the volunteers?B
 A.Volunteers didn't write down about their day offline.
 B.Volunteers weren't allowed to use any media for 24 hours.
 C.Volunteers  were followed around by Dr Roman Gerodimos.
 D.Only volunteers in the UK took part in Unplugged experiment.
72.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the participants'feelings?D
 A.Anxious.  B.Lonely  C.Bored.   D.Despaired.
73.Which of the following is true of Caroline Scott?C
 A.The media ban affected his temperature.
 B.His work went on smoothly without the media.
 C.His work was carried on hard without the media.
 D.His life was empty without the radio or newspapers.
74.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A
 A.People should use the media devices reasonably.
 B.People can easily survive the media devices addict.
 C.People can spend more time sleeping in the future.

4.TOKYO-Lonely astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) may soon be getting a robot friend from Japan.
Japan's space agency is considering putting a talking humanoid (有人的特点的) robot on the ISS to watch the work while astronauts are asleep,monitor their health and stress levels and communicate to Earth through the micro-blogging site Twitter.
Japan's space agency JAXA announced this week that it is looking at a plan to send a humanoid robot to the space station in 2013 that could communicate with the ground through Twitter-primarily feeding photos,rather than original ideas-and provide astronauts with"comfort and companionship".
Following up on US NASA's"Robonaut"R-2 program,which is set for launch on the Discovery shuttle next week,the Japanese robot would be part of a larger effort to create and refine robots that can be used by the elderly,JAXA said in a statement.
Japan is one of the leading countries in robotics and has a rapidly aging society with one of the world's longest life expectancies.
Improving robot communication capabilities could help elderly people on Earth by providing a nonintrusive (无干扰的) means of monitoring the robot owner's health and vital signs and sending information to emergency responders if there is an abnormality,JAXA said.
"We are thinking in terms of a very human-like robot that would have facial expressions and be able to talk with the astronauts,"said JAXA's Satoshi Sano.
The robot was being developed with the advertising and communications giant Dentsu Inc and a team at Tokyo University.
The NASA project has a human-like head,hands and arms and uses the same tools as station crew members.The"Robonaut"called R-2 is intended to carry out maintenance tasks in the station's Destiny lab.
NASA says it hopes that humanoid robots could one day stand in for astronauts during spacewalks or perform tasks too difficult or dangerous for humans.
For now,the﹩2.5 million NASA robot is limited to activities within the lab.

60.According to the passage,a humanoid robot,put on the ISS,shall carry out the tasks exceptD.
A.take care of the ISS sometimes 
B.keep an eye on the health of the astronauts
C.keep in contact with Earth
D.get a friend for astronauts from Japan
61.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to this passage?A
A.The robot program will eventually benefit the elderly.
B.R-2 program is in the charge of Japan's JAXA.
C.NASA is planning to communicate with the space station through Twitter.
D.Japan has the largest number of elderly people.
62.From the passage we can knowB.
A.many Japanese universities joined in the robot program
B.future astronauts will become less lonely and more comfortable with the help of the robot
C.robots could completely take the place of human astronauts in the future
D.the robot program,having cost﹩2.5 million,can carry out all tasks.
