    9．With modern technology evolving，an increasing number of jobs involve sitting at a computer for at least 8 hours a day．This can actually cause pains and strains，known as Repetitive Strain Injuries （RSI）．The following are common complaints of people with office jobs．
    Poor Posture
       Hunching over（弯腰驼背）and twisting the spine（脊柱）can ruin your posture and lead to many problems later in life．Poor posture can also make you seem shorter than you actually are．
       Ensuring you have the correct office furniture for your height is an important part of reducing back pain．Doing yoga 20 minutes every day can help improve your fitness，burn fat，and improve your posture．
    Eye Strain
       Common symptoms of eye strain include dry，tired eyes，sharp pains behind them，unclear vision，and headaches．Although these symptoms are temporary，they can be very uncomfortable and make you lose concentration．
       Blink frequently to keep your eyes from going dry．Take short frequent breaks，or perform tasks which don't involve looking at your screen．Certain facial yoga sequences can really help to relax tired eyes．Try the"clock"sequence，for example．Imagine a clock in front of your eyes．With them as wide open as possible，do the sequence of the clock，starting at 12，moving to 5 past，and so on．If you repeat this twice clockwise（顺时针方向地） and then twice counter-clockwise your eyes should feel refreshed．
    Poor Circulation
       Sitting in the same position all day can have negative effects on your leg muscles and increase the risk of developing Deep Vein Thrombosis （DVT），which involves painful blood clots（凝块）in the leg muscles．
       Take regular walks．Try practicing yoga sequences that target leg muscles to increase circulation in the legs and feet．
       Yoga brings with it definite mental and physical benefits．Many people see aerobic exercise as a chore，but view yoga as a pastime．When you wake up in the morning，try a few stretches to see how refreshing it feels．
    64．Which is the right order for people to do facial yoga to relax their eyes？A
    a．Open the eyes as wide as possible．
    b．Repeat the movement clockwise．
    c．Imagine a clock in front of your eyes．
    d．Move your eyes from 12 to 5 past．
    e．Move your eyes counter-clockwise．
    A．c，a，d，b，e               
    B．a，c，d，b，e           
    C．c，a，e，d，b           
    D．a，c，b，e，d
    65．Which of the following is NOT supported by the text？C
    A．Proper office furniture helps ease back strain．
    B．Eye strain makes it hard for you to focus on what you're doing．
    C．Having proper posture helps increase your height．
    D．Sitting all day increases the risk of developing DVT．
    66．The text is developed mainly byA
    A．showing problems and giving solutions
    B．pointing out similarities and differences
    C．describing changes in a spatial（空间的）arrangement
    D．telling stories and giving explanations

    6．Teachers fear traditional playground games like British bulldog and conkers are disappearing from many of England's schools，a survey suggests．
    More than a quarter （29%） of the 653school staff surveyed by the Association of Teachers and Lecturers （ATL） said the chasing game，British bulldog，had been banned from their school．Some 14% said pupils were banned from playing conkers and 9% said leapfrog．Most （57%） said they felt schools were becoming increasingly risk averse （厌恶）．
    Around 15% of teachers，lecturers，support staff and school leaders said that fewer playground games and sports activities were played at their school than three years ago．
    The key reasons for the decrease were fewer staff on hand to monitor activities，reduced funding（资金） and concerns over pupil safety．
    Teachers were also questioned about changes in attitude towards risk．Some 57% of staff said there was a growing trend towards risk aversion in schools．
    And of the 383staff who thought schools were more risk averse，90% said it controlled activities both in and out of school．Some 84% think it limits the school curriculum（课程），while 83% believe risk aversion puts a brake on pupils'preparation for life．
    A head teacher at a primary school in Cleveland said："All staff recognise the need to keep children safe，but not all recognise that children still need to take measured risks to develop real life skills．"
    "Children are allowed to explore their physical limits and learn to negotiate physical tasks at their own pace．Staff have clear guidelines and children have clear boundaries，"the teacher added．
    Another high school teacher，from Wales，said："In fact，pupils need to learn their own limitations，which they can't do if they don't meet with risks．"And there continues to be fears that，should something go wrong，school trips could end in teachers or schools being charged．

    56．From the first two paragraphs we learn thatD．
    A．teachers express concern over pupil safety
    B．schools tend to introduce new games to replace bulldog games
    C．pupils become more and more unwilling to take risks
    D．pupils are not encouraged to play games like bulldog and conkers
    57．As for the ban of playground games，teachers feel that itD．
    A．helps prepare pupils for real life
    B．guarantees pupil safety at the cost of their study time
    C．serves to develop the school curriculum
    D．brings more harm than good to pupils in developing life skills
    58．The underlined sentence implies that pupilsC．
    A．don't need to take risks in life
    B．are unaware of their own weaknesses
    C．can learn better about themselves by taking risks
    D．can never perform physical tasks well without taking risks
    59．If trips are to be cancelled，the main reason would be that schoolsC．
    A．lack enough money
    B．have a tight schedule
    C．are afraid of possible accidents
    D．have fewer staff to monitor trips．

    13．Archaeologists believe they are on the turning point of throwing light on the life of William Shakespeare-by excavating （发掘） what may have been the playwright's dust hole．
    Experts have begun excavating the ruins of New Place，Shakespeare's former home in Stratford-upon-Avon，which was destroyed 250 years ago．Although little remains of the property，the team，led by Birmingham Archaeology，believes it has identified a dust hole used by the 16th century poet．
    Small pieces of pottery （陶瓷） and broken clay pipe have already been found from a muddy hole on the site，which they claim could yield some of the most significant discoveries about Shakespeare in decades．The dig focuses on three areas of the property，which Shakespeare bought in 1597 when he returned to his home town from London having achieved fame-including the so-called knot garden at the back of the building．
    Dr Diana Owen，Director of the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust，which owns the site，said，"We do not know if the knot garden was an area used by Shakespeare-it may have been a yard simply used by his servants．But this could actually yield some fantastic results，especially if it was an area where rubbish was thrown or the dust hole was located．"
    Kevin Colls，from Birmingham Archaeology，added，"Through documentary evidence we know Shakespeare lived at New Place but we have very little information regarding the layout （布局） of the house and gardens at this time．Through archaeological fieldwork，in particular the dig of structural remains and the recovery of artefacts，we hope to fill in the blanks．"
    Until October，visitors will be able to watch archaeologists and volunteers at work as they excavate the remains of the house，which was knocked down in 1759．Experts hope to unearth evidence to support theories that Shakespeare wrote many of his most famous works at the property．

    71．This excavation intends toC．
    A．know something about the playwright's dust hole
    B．search for some treasure in the dust hole
    C．explore the life of William Shakespeare
    D．find something that Shakespeare lost
    72．New Place was destroyed in theDcentury．
    A．15th           B．16th           C．17th           D．18th
    73．Small pieces of pottery and broken clay pipe on the siteB．
    A．could show Shakespeare's luxurious life
    B．could lead to important discoveries about Shakespeare
    C．could show us that Shakespeare lived at New Place
    D．could prove when New Place was knocked down
    74．The underlined phrase"the blanks"in Paragraph 5 refers toD
    A．the ruins of New Place 
    B．the smallest pieces of broken pottery
    C．three areas of the property 
    D．the layout of the house and gardens of New Place
    75．What can we learn from the text？A
    A．Shakespeare used to live at New Place．
    B．Shakespeare became famous after 1597．
    C．Only his servants used the knot garden．
    D．Dr Diana Owen owns Shakespeare's property．
