1.How many times did you brush your teeth yesterday?
●Finding:A full 33% of seniors brush their teeth only once a day.
●Step:Remove the 300 types of bacteria in your mouth each morning with a battery?operated toothbrush.Brush gently for 2 minutes,at least twice a day.
2.How many times did you wash your hands or bathe yesterday?
●Finding:Seniors,on average,bathe fewer than 3 days a week.And nearly 30%wash their hands only 4 times a day-half of the number doctors recommend.
●Step:We touch our faces around 3,000 times a day-often inviting germs(病菌)to enter our mouth,nose,and eyes.Use toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle.And,most important,wash your hands often with hot running water and soap for 20 seconds.
3.How often do you think about fighting germs?
●Finding:Seniors are not fighting germs as well as they should.
●Step:Be aware of germs.Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge(海绵)that can carry more germs than anything else?To kill these germs,keep your sponge in the microwave for 10 seconds.
1.What is found out about American seniors?
A.Most of them have good habits.
B.Nearly 30% of them bathe three days a week.
C.All of them are fighting germs better than expected.
D.About one third of them brush their teeth only once a day.
2.Doctors suggest that people should wash their hands ________.
A.twice a day
B.three times a day
C.four times a day
D.eight times a day
3.Which of the following is true according to the text?
A.We should keep from touching our faces.
B.There are less than 300 types of bacteria in the mouth.
C.A kitchen sponge can carry more germs than a toilet.
D.We should wash our hands before touching a door handle.
4.The text probably comes from ________.
A.a guide book
B.a popular magazine
C.a book review
D.an official document
1.D
2.D
3.C
4.B
【解析】本文为一篇信息材料类说明文。文章介绍的是一个对美国老年人进行的健康习惯的调查结果以及专家给出的对策。
1.
2.2】解析:选D。推理判断题。根据wash their hands可锁定第二个问题下的内容,根据“And nearly 30% wash their hands only 4 times a day-half of the number doctors recommend.”可知,每天洗手四次只是医生建议的一半,由此可推知,医生建议的次数是每天8次。故选D项。
3.3】解析:选C。细节理解题。文章只是建议老年人要勤洗手,因为手每天接触脸约三千次,然后接触口、鼻、眼睛,这样就会将细菌带到这些部位,显然,问题的症结是避免未洗净的手接触口、鼻、眼睛等易被细菌感染的部位,而不是脸部,故A项不正确;B项中的less than 300与第一个问题下“Remove the 300 types of bacteria in your mouth...”有出入,故B项不正确;根据第二个问题下的“Use toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle.”可知,问题在于门把手上有大量细菌,会传到手上,而不是手上的细菌传到门把手上,故D项也不合适。根据最后一段中的“Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge(海绵)that can carry more germs than anything else?”可知C项正确。
4.4】解析:选B。推理判断题。本题要求判断文章的出处,此类试题一般结合文章的内容和格式综合考虑。本文显然不是书评(a book review),也不是官方文件(an official document)。A项有较强的干扰性,但本文主要是面向公众的科学知识普及,而不是生活指引。故选B项。

Sitting on the peaceful coast of Galapagos Islands. Ecuador, watching the sun move quietly into the sea, you shouldn't forget that Charles Darwin (1809-1882) arrived here in 1835. He stayed on the islands for five weeks, observing various animals. This finally inspired (启发) his famous work, On the Origin of Species. You can certainly follow Darwin's footsteps and enjoy a trip from four to seven days to the islands. The islands are certainly a paradise (天堂) for wildlife, as there are no natural killers on the islands and the number of boats and visitors is under government control. Though you cannot walk freely as Darwin did about 200 years ago, each day is as impressive as it could be. The most well-known animal of the Galapagos is the giant tortoise(巨型海龟), which can be seen moving slowly around the highlands of Sanra Cruz, the second largest island in the archipelago(群岛). Some of these creatures are so old that they might have been seen in their youth by Darwin himself. Despite strict control over activities and timing, your stay on the Galapagos will be remembered as a chain of incomparable pictures: diving with sea lions that swim and play within inches of you; feeling small sharks touch your feet as you swim; and, most magically, seeing a whale and her baby surface with a great breath of air. Travelling between the islands and observing the wildlife that so inspired Darwin, you will feel as though you are getting a special view of an untouched world. At night you will sleep on board the ship, leaving the wildlife in complete occupation of the islands, which are as undisturbed now as they have been since the beginning of time.
1. What do we know about Darwin's visit to the islands?
A. He studied different creatures on the islands
B. He completed his famous book on the islands
C. He was touched by the geography of the islands
D. He was attracted by well-known animals of the islands
2. Which of the following plays a role in making the islands "a paradise for wildlife"?
A. Animals on the islands feed on grass.
B. Local government forbids killing wildlife.
C. People cannot visit the islands as they wish.
D. Tourists are not allowed to touch the animals.
3. Your stay on the islands will be most impressive mainly because of_________.
A. The beautiful sea views
B. Darwin's inspiring trip
C. a closer view of animals
D. various daring activities
4. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. A Unique Attraction for Wildlife Lovers
B. Calapagos as a Paradise for Adventures
C. Charles Darwin as a Symbol of Galapagos
D. A Successful Example of Wildlife Protection

(2013·高考广东卷,C)One day,when I was working as a psychologist in England,an adolescent boy showed up in my office.It was David.He kept walking up and down restlessly,his face pale,and his hands shaking slightly.His head teacher had referred him to me.“This boy has lost his family,”he wrote.“He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others,and I’m very worried about him.Can you help?”
I looked at David and showed him to a chair.How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn’t have the answer to,and which no words can describe.Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.
The first two times we met,David didn’t say a word.He sat there,only looking up to look at the children’s drawings on the wall behind me.I suggested we play a game of chess.He nodded.After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon—in complete silence and without looking at me.It’s not easy to cheat in chess,but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.
Usually,he arrived earlier than agreed,took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down.It seemed as if he enjoyed my company.But why did he never look at me?
“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,”I thought.“Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.”Some months later,when we were playing chess,he looked up at me suddenly.
“It’s your turn,”he said.
After that day,David started talking.He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club.He wrote to me a few times,about his biking with some friends,and about his plan to get into university.Now he had really started to live his own life.
Maybe I gave David something.But I also learned that one—without any words—can reach out to another person.All it takes is a hug,a shoulder to cry on,a friendly touch,and an ear that listens.
1.When he first met the author,David________.
A.felt a little excited
B.walked energetically
C.looked a little nervous
D.showed up with his teacher
2.As a psychologist,the author________.
A.was ready to listen to David
B.was skeptical about psychology
C.was able to describe David’s problem
D.was sure of handling David’s problem
3.David enjoyed being with the author because he________.
A.wanted to ask the author for advice
B.needed to share sorrow with the author
C.liked the children’s drawings in the office
D.beat the author many times in the chess game
4.What can be inferred about David?
A.He recovered after months of treatment.
B.He liked biking before he lost his family.
C.He went into university soon after starting to talk.
D.He got friends in school before he met the author.
5.What made David change?
A.His teacher’s help.
B.The author’s friendship.
C.His exchange of letters with the author.
D.The author’s silent communication with him.

Pride and Prejudice for the Modern Woman
Let us imagine how Pride and Prejudice,Jane Austen’s most
famous work,might be updated,200 years on.
Austen’s popularity is rooted in her intelligence.But today she would certainly have had a very different life,as would her characters.Here’s my own suggestion...
It is a truth finally and universally acknowledged that a single woman with brains deserves to have equal opportunities to men,however disadvantaged she may feel by sexism.
“My dear husband,”said his hopeful wife one day,“have you heard that the local store,standing empty for so long,is taken over by a bright young businesswoman?”
Her dull and indifferent (漠不关心的) husband replied that he had not.
“But it is,it is,”she replied excitedly.
Mr Dull?Husband made no reply.
“Don’t you want to know her plans?”she cried with some impatience.
“Well,clearly you think it matters to your silly little head...so I’d better listen.”
“Well,my dear,the rumour (传言) is that she has already set up a string of successful businesses in northern England,though how_a_woman_can_know_anything_about_that_is_beyond_me.She will move in herself next month.”
“What is her name?”
“Bingley.”
“Is she married or single?”
“What a question! And none of your business.But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys.”
“How so? How can it possibly affect them? ”
“My dear love:those lazy boys need something to wake them up.There are bound to be jobs going.”
“Is that her point in settling here? Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place.”
“Nonsense,my love,how little you’ve noticed the world has changed.She’s got a first?rate degree and some sort of business qualification,I’m told.She surely needs one of our boys! Perhaps you might give her a call.”
“Me? No.Perhaps you can take an interest.You still have your looks,after all.She may even offer you a job.”
“Oh,that’s not likely.These new chances belong to the younger generation.But now you mention it,I think I’ll go along all the same.”
And Mrs Bennet went along.That was 10 years ago.She is now managing director of a FTSE?listed company.
...It would remain the case,of course,that Mrs Bennet would be one of very few women on the company board,that her salary would be lower than her male colleagues,her bonus of a more“female”dimension and her lifespan (年限) among the city’s business leaders shorter than theirs.Still,she’d no doubt have enjoyed Davos—and might even have hobnobbed (攀谈) with influential figures.
1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Austen was born 200 years ago.
B.Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice.
C.Austen’s success lies in her wisdom.
D.Austen’s updated work gains popularity.
2.The underlined part in the passage suggests that Mrs Bennet ________.
A.had mixed feelings of admiration and surprise about Bingley
B.felt kind of worried and doubtful about Bingley
C.was extremely anxious to meet Bingley
D.had a great curiosity about Bingley
3.In the eyes of Mrs Bennet,Bingley surely needed one of their boys to ________.
A.get married to
B.work for her
C.help her move in
D.take over her store
4.What does the writer intend to tell us?
A.Women with brains can also be as successful as men.
B.Women have to pay a high price for success.
C.A judgment must be made free from prejudice.
D.Sex discrimination still exists nowadays.
