    "Thanks" to the seasonal change, half of my class went down with colds and flu. You can hear coughs and sneezes everywhere, and the number of suffering students keeps climbing.

    A close friend of mine, however, survived the fierce battle, despite the fact that he was surrounded by "victims" all day long. I am not surprised, because we've been friends for ages, and he seldom gets sick. The following is his advice.

    1.____________.

    A long-distance run in the morning is a good choice. It not only makes you energized for the rest of the day, but also helps to develop good health for the rest of your life.

    2.____________.

    Eat a variety of food every day, because different foods contain different nutrition: rice provides sugar, meat contains energy and fat, vegetables are rich in vitamins and cellulose, etc. Fruit and yogurt are also highly recommended, because the former is known for its Vitamin C, and the latter, calcium, which plays a vital role in the growth of our bodies.

    3.____________.

    Water is one of the most important components of our bodies, and is essential for our metabolism. We often run out of water without notice, so we should drink water even if we are not thirsty. Besides, when we get sick, we should drink more, because when our bodies fight against viruses, it causes us to lose water.

    4.____________.

    A person in low spirits is more likely to get sick. A happy mood not only helps people defend against viruses, but also is a best cure for most illnesses.

    Follow the above rules, and you'll become as strong as a bull! Remember: diseases and viruses are not that frightening as long as you are well prepared.

    A. Keep optimistic and active

    B. Get plenty of exercise

    C. Keep drinking water

    D. Have a balanced diet

    One of the traditions which is now a necessary part of Christmas is a that of Father Christmas, or Santa Claus. According to the modern legend, he is a magical figure who visits all the children of the world during the night before Christmas Day, leaving presents which they find the next morning. He flies through the night sky in a sledge pulled by reindeer, and enters houses by climbing down chimneys. This strange legend is based on the life of a man called Nicholas, but in fact we know very little about him. Historians think he was a Christian bishop(主教)in Turkey in about 285--350 A.D. One of the stories about him is that he helped three poor girls. No one would marry them because they were so poor. To provide them with money for their weddings, Nicholas secretly dropped some gold coins down the chimney of their house. After Nicholas died, he was made a saint(圣人) by the church.(The name Santa Claus thus comes from St Nicholas.) His feast day was celebrated in December, and parents started giving their children secret presents from St Nicholas. Over the years, this custom became part of our Christmas traditions.

    Recently, a psychologist has claimed that Father Christmas is “the perfect fantasy” for children. According to Professor Anthony Clare, children love the character of Father Christmas because he is like an ideal father: he loves children and gives them presents, but he never criticizes them, is never angry, and children do not even need to thank him for the presents. Other writers, however, point out that Father Christmas can be a frightening character to some children. Jane Bidder says that some children are terrified of this fat, bearded old man. It can certainly confuse many children. As parents, we warn our children to be careful of strangers and never to let them into the house, and yet we tell children that a strange man will come into their bedroom at night! Some children can become very worried about this idea and fear that he is a kind of burglar.

    Most children, however, understand from their parents and from the media that Father Christmas is basically a benign character, and look forward to his annual visit with joy and excitement.

    IKEA is the world’s largest furniture retailer, and the man behind it is Ingvar Kamprad, one of the world’s most successful entrepreneurs. Born in Sweden in 1926, Kamprad was a natural businessman. As a child, he enjoyed selling things and made small profits from selling matches, seeds, and pencils in his community. When Kamprad was 17, his father gave him some money as a reward for his good grades. Naturally he used it to start up a business—IKEA.

    IKEA’s name comes from Kamprad's initials (I.K.) and the place where he grew up (‘E’and ‘A’). Today IKEA is known for its modern, minimalist furniture, but it was not a furniture company in the beginning. Rather, IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous goods.

    Kamprad’s wares included anything that he could sell for profits at discounted prices, including watches, pens and stockings.

    IKEA first began to sell furniture through a mail-order catalogue in 1947. The furniture was all designed and made by manufacturers near Kamprad’s home. Initial sales were very encouraging, so Kamprad expanded the product line．Furniture was such a successful aspect of the business that IKEA became solely a furniture company in 1951.

    In 1953 IKEA opened its first showroom in Almhult, Sweden. IKEA is known today for its spacious stores with furniture in attractive settings, but in the early1950s, people ordered from catalogues. Thus response to the first showroom was overwhelming: people loved being able to see and try the furniture before buying it. This led to increased sales and the company continued to thrive. By 1955, IKEA was designing all its own furniture.

    In 1956 Kamprad saw a man disassembling(拆卸) a table to make it easier to transport. Kamprad was inspired. The man had given him a great idea: flat packaging. Flat packaging would mean lower shipping costs for IKEA and lower prices for customers. IKEA tried it and sales soared. The problem was that people had to assemble furniture themselves, but over time, even this grew into an advantage for IKEA. Nowadays, IKEA is often seen as having connotations(内涵) of self-sufficiency. This image has done wonders for the company, leading to better sales and continued expansion．

    Today there are over 200 stores in 32 countries. Amazingly, Ingvar Kamprad has managed to keep IKEA a privately-held company. In 2004 he was named the world’s richest man. He currently lives in Switzerland and is retired from the day-to-day operations of IKEA. IKEA itself, though, just keeps on growing.

    1.The author states in Paragraph 6 that flat packaging___________.

    A. needs large space to assembly furniture

    B. is a business concept inspired by Kamprad

    C. helps reduce transportation costs

    D. makes the company self-sufficient

    2.What is the main idea of the passage?

    A. Ingvar Kamprad is the richest man in the world.

    B. IKEA is the world’s largest furniture retailer.

    C. The advantage of IKEA’s furniture is dissembling.

    D. Ingvar Kamprad established IKEA and led it to great success.

    3.What is the author’s attitude towards IKEA’s future according to the last paragraph?

    A. Indifferent B. Optimistic

    C. Doubtful D. Pessimistic

    4.The passage is developed primarily in terms of ___________.

    A. order of events

    B. analysis of a process

    C. examples that illustrate(阐释) a problem

    D. comparison and contrast
