【题目】阅读理解
Books are for reading, but man must bring to their reading a desire to learn and a power of absorbing. Reading should be active, not passive.
When students first go to a library, they may be at a loss as to what to read of all the different subjects. Well, Bacon tells you to “look at weak places in your armor(盔甲)”, and shows you how to fill up the blanks in your knowledge. On the other hand, it is no good just trying to fill your mind with knowledge. Knowledge in itself is often useless. A mind filled with too much knowledge is like a room too full of furniture; a man cannot walk about freely in it, and look out of the windows. It is much better to concentrate on a few subjects which interest you and to deal lightly with the others than to march heavily through the whole range(范围) of learning, like a silly tourist going through a museum and not missing a single object. If you try to master every subject you may become very wise, but you will be very lonely and you will probably lose all your friends. So you must learn to pick and choose, and you must also learn to look here and there in a library like a camel eating grass on the grassland. If you watch it eating, you will see that although he is supposed to be one of the most stupid animals in the world, he has at least one of the qualities of the cultured man, the power to pick and choose. A student looking for mental food in a library should take the camel as his model.
(1)The writer thinks that one must ___________.
A.read as many books as he can
B.read books on the subjects that interest him
C.read and absorb a lot
D.try to read books on all the different subjects
(2)A cultured man is similar to a camel because __________.
A.neither of them is interested in knowledge
B.both of them have the ability to select
C.neither of them can be considered wise
D.the man reads books as much as a camel eats grass
(3)The term “mental food” refers to ____________-.
A.grassland
B.subjects
C.books
D.brain
(4)In the second paragraph the writer mainly discusses___________.
A.how to compare furniture with books
B.why books must be absorbed
C.how to select reading materials
D.why students go to a library

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Exercise may help to safeguard the mind against depression(沮丧) through previously unknown effects on working muscles, according to a new study involving mice.
Mental health experts have long been aware that even mild, repeated stress can contribute to the development of depression and other mood disorders in animals and people. Scientists have also known that exercise seems to cushion against depression. But precisely how exercise, a physical activity can reduce someone's risk for depression, a mood state, has been mysterious. So for the new study, researchers at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm studied the brains and behavior of mice in a complicated and novel fashion.
We can't ask mice if they are feeling cheerful or in low spirits. Instead, researchers have pictured certain behaviors that indicate depression in mice. If animals lose weight, stop seeking out a sugar solution when it's available — because, probably, they no longer experience normal pleasures — or give up trying to escape from the cold-water zone just freeze in place, they are categorized as depressed. And in the new experiment, after five weeks of frequent but low-level stress, such as being lightly shocked, mice displayed exactly those behaviors. They became depressed.
The scientists could then have tested whether exercise blunts (延缓) the risk of developing depression after stress by having mice run first. But, frankly, from earlier research, they wanted to know how, so they bred pre-exercised mice. A wealth of earlier research by these scientists and others had shown that aerobic exercise, in both mice and people, increases the production within muscles of an enzyme (酶) called PGC-1alpha. The Karolinska scientists suspected(怀疑) that this enzyme somehow creates conditions within the body that protect the brain against depression. Then, the scientists exposed the animals, which without exercising, were in high levels of PGC-1alpha to five weeks of mild stress. The mice responded with slight symptoms of worry. But they did not develop depression. They continued to seek out sugar and fought to get out of the cold-water zone. Their high levels of PGC-1alpha appeared to make them depression-resistant(抵抗的). Finally, to ensure that these findings are relevant to people, the researchers had a group of adult volunteers complete three weeks of frequent endurance training, consisting of 40 to 50 minutes of moderate cycling or jogging. The scientists conducted muscle biopsies (活体检查) before and after the program and found that by the end of the three weeks, the volunteers' muscle cells contained substantially more PGC-1alpha than at the study's start.
The finding of these results, in the simplest terms, is that “you reduce the risk of getting depression when you exercise,” said Maria Lindskog, a researcher at the Karolinska Institute.
(1)The researchers at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm conducted the new study hoping to know ________.
A.if exercise cushions against depression
B.what can lead to depression in animals and people
C.if stress can contribute to the development of depression
D.how exercise contributes to reducing someone's risk for depression
(2)We can infer from the new experiment conducted by researchers at the Karolinska Institute that mice are depressed except when ________.
A.they attempt to escape from the cold-water zone
B.they stop searching for the sugar water
C.they stand still in place
D.they can't experience normal pleasures any longer
(3)Researchers asked a group of adult volunteers to complete three weeks of frequent endurance training in order to ________.
A.know if exercise can help to safeguard the mind against depression
B.know if they can endure 40 to 50 minutes of moderate cycling or jogging
C.ensure they can lose weight after moderate cycling or jogging
D.confirm the findings above are also relevant to people
(4)It can be concluded from the passage that ________.
A.the mice with high levels of PGC-1alpha are easier to develop depression
B.athletes are more likely to develop depression than ordinary people
C.the enzyme called PGC-1alpha helps to reduce depression
D.in the past mental health specialists didn't know exercise could help reduce depression

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Energy independence. It has a nice ring to it. Doesn't it? If you think so, you're not alone, because energy independence has been the dream of American president for decades, and never more so than in the past few years, when the most recent oil price shock has been partly responsible for kicking off the great recession.
“Energy independence” and its rhetorical (修辞的) companion “energy security” are, however, slippery concepts that are rarely though through. What is it we want independence from, exactly?
Most people would probably say that they want to be independent from imported oil. But there are reasons that we buy all that oil from elsewhere.
The first reason is that we need it to keep our economy running. Yes, there is a trickle(涓涓细流)of biofuel available, and more may become available, but most biofuels cause economic waste and environmental destruction.
Second, Americans have basically decided that they don't really want to produce all their own oil. They value the environmental quality they preserve over their oil imports from abroad. Vast areas of the United States are off-limits(禁止) to oil exploration and production in the name of environmental protection. To what extent are Americans really willing to endure the environmental impacts of domestic energy production in order to cut back imports?
Third, there are benefits to trade. It allows for economic efficiency, and when we buy things from places that have lower production costs than we do, we benefit. And although you don't read about this much, the United States is also a large exporter of oil products, selling about 2 million barrels of petroleum products per day to about 90 countries.
There is no question that the United States imports a great deal of energy and, in fact, relies on that steady flow to maintain its economy. When that flow is interrupted, we feel the pain in short supplies and higher prices, At the same time, we derive(得到,获得) massive economic benefits when we buy the most affordable energy on the world market and when we engage in energy trade around the world.
(1)What does the author say about energy independence for America?
A.It sounds very attractive.
C. It will bring oil prices down.
B.It ensures national security.
D. It has long been everyone's dream.
(2)Why does America rely heavily on oil imports?
A.It wants to expand its storage of crude oil.
B.Its own oil reserves are quickly running out.
C.It wants to keep its own environment intact.
D.Its own oil production falls short of demand.
(3)What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?
A.To arouse Americans' awareness of the energy crisis.
B.To stress the importance of energy conservation.
C.To explain the increase of international oil trade.
D.To justify(证明… 有理的) America's dependence on oil imports.

“I'm afraid I can't, Aunt,” said Jane. “I am not interested in math at all.”
“I don't think so.” said the woman. “You (be) good at it if you try your best. You (do) more exercises and practice a math problem again until you make it. Well, here's a math problem. Think it over and practice it again and again, then you (work) it out. ”
“OK,” said the girl, “Let me (have) a try.”

【题目】Discovery’s astronauts arrived to an exciting celebration Wednesday as nearly 700 people crowded an airplane storage place, waving flags and holding signs that read: “Welcome Home, Astronauts!”
The seven-person team returned to Earth on Tuesday after being the first to take a space shuttle into orbit since the Columbia disaster(灾难) of 2003.
“In the last two and a half years, we have been through the very worst that manned space flight can bring us, and over the past two weeks we have seen the very best,” NASA Administrator Michael Griffin told the astronauts and their families and fans Wednesday.
The crowd waved American flags for the U.S. astronauts and Japanese flags for crew member Soichi Noguchi, one of the spacewalkers.
“As a rookie(新手)astronaut, I could not ask for more,” Noguchi said, “We had three spacewalks, two extra days in space and one great team.”
While the homecoming has been filled with excitement for what mission controllers declared a “truly spectacular test flight”, uncertainty remains for the future of the shuttle program.
Shortly after Discovery rose up into space July 26, a nearly 1-pound large piece of foam insulation(泡沫绝缘材料) fell from the fuel tank—the very thing that was supposed to have been fixed after Columbia exploded. The foam missed Discovery, but NASA grounded all shuttle flights until engineers fix the problem.
NASA ground crews examined Discovery after its return from orbit and found it in good condition, an official said Wednesday at NASA’s Dryden Flight Research Center at Edwards Air Force Base in California.
Technicians counted 101 dings and divots, including 20 that were larger than 1 inch. Schaaf Dean, landing support group chief, said the numbers were similar to the results of other shuttle, post-landing examinations.
A beginning examination of the shuttle’s thermal(热的)blanket showed it remained undamaged during re-en-try into the Earth’s air.(Agencies)
【1】The seven astronauts ________.
A. are the first to take a space shuttle into orbit
B. took the Columbia into space
C. returned to earth safely
D. are Americans
【2】According to the text, the NASA officials think ________.
A. the flight of Discovery is a failure
B. manned space flight has been through the best in the past
C. the flight of Discovery is a success
D. the astronauts are national heroes
【3】When the Discovery took off, ________.
A. the fuel tank burned B. a piece of foam insulation fell
C. the safety belt is not fixed D. it knocked into the Columbia
【4】The underlined word “grounded” means ________.
A. (of a boat) hit the bottom of a sea and be unable to move
B. to cause a boat to hit the bottom of a sea or lake
C. to prevent a plane or person from flying
D. to be based on something
