I read a lot of history, a little philosophy, and a good deal of science. My curiosity was too great to allow me to give much time to reflect what I read; I could hard wait to finish one book, too eager was I to begin another. This was always an adventure, and I would start upon a famous work as exciting as a reasonable young man would go in to bat for his side or a nice girl goes to a dance. Now and then journalists in search of copy ask me when the most thrilling moment of my life is. If I am not ashamed to say, I might answer that it is the moment that I began to read Goethe'sFaust.
I have never been quite lost this feeling, and even now the first pages of a book sometimes send the blood racing through my veins. To me reading is a rest as to other people conversation and a game of cards. It is more than that; it is a necessity, and if I am deprived of it in a little while I find myself as irritable as the addict deprived of his drug. I would sooner read a timetable or a catalogue than nothing at all.

【题目】D
In June, an isolated tribe known to semi-permanently reside in Peru emerged from the forest on the neighboring Envira River in Brazil to make contact with the outside world. Such contact happens surprisingly often, but it is usually brief. “This is unique in that they’ve chosen to stay,” says Chris Fagan, director of the nongovernmental group Upper Amazon Conservancy.
Reportedly under threat from illegal loggers, a few dozen tribespeople remain near the village where they first emerged. They are under the supervision of FUNAI, Brazil’s agency for Indian affairs. During many past contact events, members of the isolated groups died after encountering modern diseases for the first time. But experts hope the group that emerged in June will fare (进展) better because members have stayed long enough to receive medical care. There’s still concern that other members of the group’s tribe may have remained in the forest, vulnerable to disease and unreachable by medical personnel.
“The worst-case scenario (方案) is that some people get sick and go back to the original tribe,” says University of Missouri anthropologist Robert Walker, who studies Amazonian populations. “That’s the huge worry.”
Walker, who studies satellite imagery (卫星图) of the rainforest for evidence of isolated villages, says four or five such nomadic hunter-gatherer groups live in the Envira River watershed, though he estimates between 50 and 100 isolated indigenous (土生土长的) groups live in Greater Amazonia. These groups often make fleeting (短暂的) contact to steal tools from frontier towns, but most, he says, remain isolated out of fear. “Some of these folks’ ancestors have been massacred,” he says. “They were contacted, violently, in the past.”
Now, with illegal loggers and drug smugglers invading land reserves established to protect the tribespeople’s way of life, these isolated groups are feeling pressured out of their homes. And although activist groups and government anthropologists train locals to temporarily leave the area when isolated tribes arrive as a way to prevent the spread of disease, lack of official protocols (协议), consistent enforcement and regular compensation for villagers often make it an ineffective solution.
These tribespeople “have a right to continue their lifestyle as long as they want to,” Fagan says. “There are land reserves set up to allow them to do that, and those reserves are failing.”
【1】Where do the tribespeople who make contact with the outside world live?
A. In the US. B. In Brazil.
C. In Peru. D. In Cuba.
【2】Mr Walker is __________.
A. director of the nongovernmental group Upper Amazon Conservancy
B. an official from the Brazilian government
C. an official from FUNAI, Brazil’s agency for Indian affairs
D. an anthropologist from America
【3】What does the underlined word “massacred” mean?
A. killed in a large number.
B. given enough medical treatment.
C. helped with tender care.
D. treated in a friendly way.
【4】From what Fagan says in the last paragraph, we can know _______.
A. It is unique that the tribespeople should ask to stay
B. The government did a lot to set up land rserves but ended up in vain.
C. These tribespeople don’t have a right to continue their lifestyle as long as they want to.
D. The worst-case scenario is that some people get sick and go back to the original tribe.

【题目】According to the Ministry of Health, 260 million Chinese people have chronic(慢性)diseases, and 85 percent of all deaths in China are caused by such diseases.Among them, cardiovascular(心血管的)disease has bothered more people than any other kind of chronic disease.
According to the WHO(World Health Organization), salt consumption(消耗), one of the key causes of high blood pressure that can lead to cardiovascular disease, is much higher in China than in other countries.
Douglas Bettcher, the director of the WHO’s Tobacco Free Initiative, says, “The average Chinese person consumes about 12 to 14 grams (of salt) per day, while the suggestion of the WHO is consumption of less than 5 grams per day.High salt consumption is a major cause of cardiovascular disease and high pressure in China.
Changing the way that food is prepared could reduce salt consumption in China.
Another major risk factor in China is smoking.Dr Michael O’Leary, a representative of the WHO, says, “We know already that one million deaths in China are related to smoking, This is an enormous number.It means that we are seeing nearly 3000 deaths a day in China, or two deaths every minute, related to smoking.
According to O’Leary, about 26 percent of men who die from smoking-related diseases in China die before the age of 60.People who can still contribute a great deal, in other words, are dying too young.
China has tried to ban smoking , but more efforts are needed.
More than half of chronic diseases are preventable by changing lifestyles and reducing risks.The four key risk factors are: smoking, diets high in fats, salt and sugar, environments that prevent physical activities, and alcohol consumption.These are the areas on which efforts to make changes need to concentrate.
【1】Which of the following is more in China than in other countries?
A. The amount of salt consumed
B. The number of deaths caused by high blood pressure.
C. The number of people with cardiovascular disease.
D. The number of people with high blood pressure.
【2】According to the WHO, how much salt should a Chinese person consume?
A. About 12 to 14 grams per day.
B. Less than 5 grams per day.
C. About 17 to 19 grams per day.
D. About 7 to 9 grams per day.
【3】Why does O’Leary mention “26 percent of men” in Paragraph 6?
A. To show China needs to try to ban smoking.
B. To show smoking causes the deaths of elderly people.
C. To show smoking causes the deaths of too many young people.
D. To show the number of smoking-related deaths in China is large.
【4】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. There are four causes of chronic diseases.
B. The change in lifestyles can prevent some chronic diseases.
C. No smoking or alcohol means no chronic diseases.
D. If we do physical activities, we will have no chronic diseases.

【题目】Having taken a room at the hotel at which he had been instructed to stay, Smallwood went out; it was a lovely day, early in August, and the sun shone in an unclouded sky. He had not been to Lucerne since he was a boy, but remembered a covered bridge, though not clearly, a great stone lion and a church in which he had sat, bored yet impressed while they played an organ (风琴); and now wandering along a shady quay (码头) he tried not so much to find his way about a half-forgotten scene as to reform in his mind some recollection of the shy and eager boy, so impatient for life, who so long ago had wandered there. But it seemed to him that the most lively of his memories was not of himself, but of the crowd; he seemed to remember the sun and the heat and the people; the train was crowded and so was the hotel, the lake steamers were packed and on the quays and in the streets you found your way among the holiday-makers. They were fat and old and ugly and strange.
Now, in wartime, Lucerne was as deserted as it must have been before the world discovered that Switzerland was the play-ground of Europe. Most of the hotels were closed, the streets were empty, the boats for hire rocked (摇晃) lazily at the water’s edge and there was none to take them, and in the avenue by the lake the only persons to be seen were serious Swiss taking their dogs for their daily walk. Smallwood felt happy and, sitting down on a bench that faced the water, surrendered (听任) himself to the feelings. The blue water, snowy mountains, and their beauty hit you in the face. So long, at all event, as the fine weather lasted he was prepared to enjoy himself. He didn’t see why he should not at least try to combine pleasure to himself with advantage to his country.
【1】We can infer that Smallwood went to Lucerne _________.
A. to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the area
B. to do something as told
C. to visit his friend there
D. to get in touch with the shy and eager boy
【2】He felt that the city _________.
A. was more crowded than it used to be
B. had changed out of all recognition
C. had been ruined by becoming an attraction
D. was quieter than he remembered it
【3】He was prepared to enjoy himself as long as _________.
A. he was serving his country
B. he was making a profit
C. the pleasant weather continued like this
D. he could stay in Lucerne
【4】After reading the passage, we can draw a conclusion that _________.
A. Smallwood’s former visit to Lucerne was made in peacetime
B. Smallwood was pleased by the sound this time
C. Smallwood was very nervous when he got to Lucerne
D. A war would soon break out in Lucerne
