    Nowadays, a hospital always manages to keep its beds full. This is good on the one hand, and it’s bad on   36  hand.
    One day, I went to see a sick friend at the hospital. I first went to the   37  desk, where I could get a permit to visit the patient.

    “I’m not   41 ,” I shouted. “I’m just looking for a friend.”

    “I want to get my   45  back.” I begged.
    “Oh, you can   46  us,” a voice said, “Even if the   47  happens, we will see that your wife will get everything.” They left and locked the door   48  them.
    I was trying to think of how to escape by the door when Dr. Ward came in with several of his   49 .
    “Thank God you finally came,” I said.
    “It hurts that badly?” he asked.
    “No, on the contrary, I am not ill   50 .”
    Dr. Ward looked   51 . “If you don’t feel any pain, that means it’s much more   52  than we expected.” Then he turned to his students, “This is the most difficult kind of patient to deal with because he refuses to   53  that he is ill. __54__ he won’t tell us where it hurts, he will never be well again until we find the hurt out for   55  by doing exploratory surgery (手术探查) .”

    Hungry for the brightest students, many of the country’s stronger universities are actively discounting tuition （学费）．And it’s the high achievers, rather than the needy students, who are getting a good chunk of the money．The practice is remarkably widespread, reaching almost all but the 30 or so Ivy and other top colleges that forbid good grades-based financial aid．Schools are also becoming more aggressive in raising their discounts．At the DePauw University Website, enter an SAT or ACT score, grade point average and class rank, and a computer program immediately tells you what kind of "award"．Only "the real unlucky" pay full price any more．
    About 76% of first-year students got some form of discount this year at 331 private schools．Average award per student: $7,000．At small schools with tuition under about $20,000, the average discount is even higher, with some schools returning over half their tuition．                                                         
    Carnegie Mellon even tells students it will "negotiate（讨价还价）" and perhaps match financial-aid packages if kids are offered bigger awards at other schools．Much as banks and insurers offer special rates to their best customers, schools are giving the biggest breaks to their top students．Public four-year colleges, too, are offering discounts．
    The flip side of big discounts is that less money is available to improve academic programs and keep school infrastructure （基础设施） up to date．Universities that have sharply increased their tuition discount rates have seen graduation rates fall, and that’s true even among highly selective schools．They get the students in the door, but don’t have the services to keep them．
    小题1:From the first paragraph, we can judge that _______．
    A．all the universities don’t offer tuition discounts．
    B．Ivy and other top colleges offer financial aid to the high achievers
    C．the needy students get more money from the universities
    D．the graduation rates of the students from highly selected schools fall
    小题2:The underlined words “flip side” in the last paragraph probably mean “_______”．
    A．advantageB．disadvantageC．bad practiceD．good function
    小题3:Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．The brightest students are not at all hungry for stronger universities．
    B．About 76% of first-year students got an award of $ 20,000 per year．
    C．Public colleges never offer discounts to the students．
    D．Colleges should concentrate more on the services to keep the students
    小题4:This passage mainly talks about _______．
    A．the great benefit of offering lower tuition
    B．college tuition discounts in popularity
    C．the top students in need of tuition discounts
    D．reducing graduation rates due to big discounts

    NEW YORK - People who keep doing some work in their field after they retire may enjoy better physical and mental health than those who stop work completely or switch to another area of work, according to a U.S. study.
    Researchers from the University of Maryland said the findings suggest that prospective retirees should consider moving into so-called "bridge employment" as a transition to full retirement.
    "In essence, if someone is in a field where part-time work or self-employment is possible, he or she should consider it as they plan for retirement," researcher Dr. Mo Wang, an assistant professor of psychology, told Reuters Health.
    For their study, Wang and his colleagues used data on more than 12,000 workers in a U.S. health study begun in 1992. Participants, who were between the ages of 51 and 61 at the outset, were surveyed every two years over a six-year period.
    Overall, Wang's team found, people who went into some form of bridge employment reported lower rates of major diseases like high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes and arthritis during the study period than their counterparts who went straight into full retirement.
    The findings were not explained by older age or worse initial health among people who opted for full retirement, the investigators report in the Journal of Occupational Health Psychology.
    On top of their better physical health, "bridge" workers also tended to report fewer mental health problems, such as depression.
    The same mental health benefits were not seen, however, when retirees took part-time work in other fields -- possibly, Wang said, because many of these people may have taken those jobs out of financial need rather than choice.
    He noted that the lack of benefit could also stem from the fact that these retirees had to adjust to an unfamiliar job position or had to make lifestyle changes.
    Bridge work, particularly in one's accustomed field, may benefit physical and mental health for a number of reasons, according to Wang.
    In general, he explained, such work may help older adults maintain the active lifestyles they had during their careers and decrease any stress they might feel from the transition into retirement.  wwwWang said when it comes to mental health, for instance, bridge work may help by allowing people to keep some of the "role identity" that they have formed over their careers.
    Staying active in general, not only through work, can also benefit retirees' physical health, Wang noted. He added, however, that any mental health benefits are likely to depend on the type of activity -- whether it is something that the person truly enjoys, and that helps ease any stress of moving into retirement.
    "These findings," Wang said, "suggest that for retirees and prospective retirees, carefully considering whether to engage in bridge employment -- and if so, what types of bridge employment -- is quite important."
    小题1: What does the underlined phrase “at the outset” mean?__________
    A．at leastB．at leastC．at the beginningD．at last
    小题2: People who went into some form of bridge employment have less chances to get the following diseases, EXCEPT___________.
    A．arthritisB．heart diseaseC．diabetesD．low blood pressure
    小题3:Which of the following statement is WRONG?_________
    A．As long as retirees move into “bridge employment”, they must be healthier than those who do not.
    B．The participants in the study were between 51 and 61 years old.
    C．The bridge workers are also less likely to get depression.
    D．Staying active is beneficial to the retirees’ physical health.
    小题4:What can we infer from the passage?________
    A．The study was begun in 1992 and lasts for two 6-year periods
    B．If a bridge worker is older than 61 years old, it does not mean that he will get a better health than others who enjoy full retirement.
    C．Only by moving into “bridge employment” can the retirees enjoy better health both physically and psychologically.
    D．Any activity can benefit the retirees’ mental health.
    小题5:Which is the best title of the passage?
    A．A US study
    B．Bridge Work
    C．Working after retiring can be good for your health
    D．Stay active

    Some 80 percent of graduate students in East China's Zhejiang province said in a survey they will give up trying to find jobs in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, first-tier cities in China that have been considered dream places for many, because of the untouchable home prices and high living costs.
    The Yangtse Evening Post conducted the survey among 50 job seekers who were attending Sunday's job fair in Jiangsu for graduate students. The survey showed graduates are becoming more realistic in their job search despite the job market becoming better.
    The fair attracted more than 10,000 graduate students with 7,382 positions.
    "The pressure of buying a house in Beijing is unbelievable," said Wang Jian from Nanjing Normal University, who acknowledged he had thought about finding a job in Beijing, Shanghai or Guangzhou, but in the face of huge pressures, he has no choice but to be "realistic."
    People can have a very comfortable life in Nanjing with a monthly salary of between 3,000 yuan ($450) and 4,000 yuan, but in Shanghai, 5,000 yuan a month can only help you survive and buying a house will remain a dream,
    A student from Nanjing University of Science and Technology said he just turned down an offer from a Shanghai company of 7,000 yuan a month because "living costs in Shanghai are too high."
    An unnamed male student from Nanjing University said he will try first-tier cities only if he can get a high salary. "I would go to Beijing only if I can earn 200,000 yuan a year," he said.
    "Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou once had the advantages that other cities don't have, but the high housing prices and living costs make young people barely able to breathe," said Ren Leiming from the job service center of Jiangsu's colleges and universities.
    "First-tier cities have plenty of talents that make it hard for people to be outstanding, and if you go work in smaller cities you can become a dominant player at your position much more easily," said Ren.
    小题1:Tthe majority of graduate students will give up trying to find jobs in the first-tier cities
    because        
    A it is not easy to find jobs there .
    B. home prices and living costs there are very high.
    C .they can’t make full use of their knowledge and skills there .
    D. monthly salaries there are low compared with those in other cities .
    小题2:Which of the following statements is TRUE about the job market now ?
    A. There are more job opportunities offered now
    B The job markets are becoming more and more competitive .
    C. Many graduate students are n’t satisfied with the working conditions
    D Companies and enterprises have stricter rules to take in graduate students .
    小题3:We can learn from the news report that             .
    A. In Shanghai, 5,000 yuan a month can only help you buy a luxury house .
    B. The fair attracted more than 10,000 graduate students and laid-off workers  with 7,382 positions
    C. The Yangtse Evening Post conducted the survey among 50 personnel managers who were attending Sunday's job fair in Jiangsu for graduate students.
    D A student from Nanjing University of Science and Technology turned down an offer from a Shanghai company of 7,000 yuan a month
    小题4:The words Ren said in the last paragraph mean              .
    A．people can’t achieve more in first-tier cities .
    B．people can easily be outstanding in smaller cities
    C．he would rather go to first-tier cities than smaller cities .
    D．talents are more welcome in first-tier cities than smaller ones

    Children at a school in Italy have today begun an experiment to replace all their books with personal computers. The pupils involved will each be given a special laptop that contains their entire courses.
    Until today, the Don Milani di Rivoli elementary school in central Turin was like any other. Children turned up, got out their books and pens and began the process of learning. But now, in what's being described as a unique experiment, 60 fifth-grade pupils and a number of third-graders, will start using computers only.
    The mini-laptops, which run Windows software, all have a full curriculum programmed into them. The pupils will use the computers to do all their reading and writing. Security systems within the laptops mean the children's access to the Internet is strictly controlled. The machines weigh less than a kilogram, can be dropped from a height of 1.5 metres and are waterproof.
    Instead of spending 700 dollars a year on books, the laptops, built by the Italian company Olidata, cost less than 400 dollars. One of the teachers involved in the scheme says that, for the first time, schools will be able to verify in a scientific way how a computer alone can improve the learning process. The experiment, which has the backing of parents, is due to last a year.
    In other countries, such a programme is also being carried out. Venezuela is ordering one million low cost laptops for its school children. The machines will be based on the Intel Classmate laptop that has been designed for school children. Many see the deal as a blow for the One Laptop Per Child organization that has also been introducing its child- friendly machine to developing nations.
    小题1: Which of the following is TRUE about the mini-laptop?
    A．It is heavy for pupils to carry. B．It can't be damaged by water.
    C．It is one and a half meters high.D．It is easily broken or damaged.
    小题2: The pupils use the laptop to ____ in class.
    A．learn their lessons as an aid
    B．have a course named computer studies
    C．surf the Internet mainly to find information
    D．do what they used to do with books and pens
    小题3: How much money can a pupil save by using the mini-laptop to replace all the books in a year?
    A．Less than 400 dollars.B．More than 400 dollars.
    C．More than 300 dollars. D．Less than 300 dollars.
    小题4:Which of the following about the experiment is TRUE?
    A．It has been carried out for over one year.
    B．It has already turned out to be a success.
    C．The pupils' parents are against it in fact.
    D．The pupils' parents are supportive to it.

Yes, kittens are adorable （讨人喜欢的）．Yes, they can grow up to be good mousers and are very entertaining to watch．And yes, cats are independent and don't require as much care as dogs．But research shows cats can also be caretakers for us and our families, improve our health and teach us and our children to be kinder, gentler souls．

    For years experts have argued that poor households are consuming less nourishing food than the rest of the population.
    But a survey of some of the lowest earners in Britain shows the nutritional value of what they eat is little different to everyone else.
    In fact, the same deficiencies in diet were shared by all the population and the findings suggest that poor eating choices are far more widespread than previously suspected - affecting many wealthier families.
    These included low fruit and vegetable consumption, not eating enough oily fish and eating too much saturated fat and sugar.
    “This is a large and significant study and it shows we are all eating just as bad a diet as each other,” said Tim Lang, professor of food policy at City University.
    The poorest families were eating only slightly more sugar and slightly less fruit and vegetables, according to the study of 3,728 respondents in the bottom of the population.
    Alison Tedstone, head of nutritional science at the Food Standard Agency, said: “ Overall, people on low incomes have less than ideal diets, but their diets are only slightly worse than those of the rest of the population.”
    The study also showed that low earners are choosing to eat unhealthily. Their food choices were not linked to their income, their access to shops or their cooking skills.
    The findings appear to contradict assumptions that the poor cannot afford healthier foods or are too far away from shops that sell them.
    The Low Income Nutrition and Diet Survey showed that like the rest of the population, the poor's daily fruit and vegetable intake on average is below the recommended five portions. Fewer than 10 per cent of respondents hit this target, while around 20 per cent ate less than a portion per day.
    More than three quarters (76 per cent) of men and 81 per cent of women did less than one 30-minute session of moderate or vigorous exercise per week.
    Some 45 per cent of men and 40 per cent of women were smokers.
    This compares with 28 per cent of men and 24 per cent of women in the general population.
    小题1: According to the passage, which of the following is true?
    A．Whether the poor or the rich maybe have a bad diet.
    B．Even the poor can enjoy enough fruit and fish consumption.
    C．Only the poor have a bad diet.
    D．The study was conveyed in both the rich and the poor.
    小题2:What kind of persons maybe eat most sugar?
    A．The rich.B．Men.C．The poorest.D．Women
    小题3: From the passage, we can learn __________.
    A．the poor choose unhealthy food because of low income
    B．having no access to shops also leads to the poor’s bad diet
    C．the poor’s daily fruit intake is as much as general people
    D．the number of smokers in the poor is bigger than that in general people
    小题4: What’s the best title of the passage?
    A．The poor’s healthy problem.B．Keep off junk food.
    C．How to have a good diet.D．A diet survey.

    If you are having trouble falling asleep, you are in good company. About 65% of Americans said they have sleeping problems a few nights each week, according to a recent study by the National Sleep Foundation. Sleeping too little can lead to a higher risk of becoming fat and getting depressed(沮丧的). But before you go to a doctor for advice, it is worth examining your sleeping habits one more time. Some of your favorite evening habits may have something to do with the sleeping problems.
    Setting a Bright Alarm Clock
    The light of your bright alarm clock can prevent you from falling asleep. You can make your room as dark as possible. Cover the bright numbers with a book or consider buying a small travel clock. Your cellphone alarm may also do the trick.
    Counting Sheep
    When you just can’t fall asleep, it’s useless to stay in bed to count sheep. If you’ve been trying to fall asleep for more than 30 minutes, the National Sleep Foundation suggests you get up to do some reading or watch TV for a while. Such activities will make you sleepy. Before you know it, you’ll be going back to bed really tired.
    3. Exercising Late at Night?
    Daytime workouts(锻炼) will keep you full of energy for hours. That’s why you don’t want to exercise within three hours of hitting the sack. Fierce(剧烈的)  physical activity raise your body temperature and pumps your energy level—both are bad for a good night’s sleep.
    小题1:What can we learn from the first sentence of the passage?
    A．It’s not good to fail to fall asleep at night.
    B．People in a good company often have sleeping problems.
    C．There are many people who have sleeping problems.
    D．You should find someone to talk to if you can’t fall asleep.
    小题2:The underlined part “hitting the sack” in the last paragraph means “______”.
    A. going back home              B. going to bed
    C. going to the gym              C. falling asleep
    小题3:Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
    A．The bad results of getting too little sleep.
    B．Why the bright alarm clock keeps you awake.
    C．What to do if you can’t fall asleep after 30 minutes.
    D．Why watching TV and reading books make people sleepy.
    小题4:By writing the passage, the writer mainly wants to tell us _______.
    A．why so many people can’t sleep well at night
    B．how to enjoy a good night’s sleep
    C．that sleeping problems are troubling more and more people
    D．that people may solve their sleeping problems by some habits

    Haikou: A shark was killed after being dragged to shore at Yalong Berth beach in Sanya, South China’s Hainan Province, on Sunday afternoon.
    It was the first time a shark had been caught in the beach area, a popular tourist site in Hainan.
    Local fishermen said they caught the 3-meter-long, l-ton shark by chance When they were fishing in sea water 1,000 metres deep near the beach.
    Police temporarily（暂时）protected the shark while oceanographers decided whether it was a species belonging to State protection.
    Fishermen later killed and sold the shark after oceanographers confirmed that it was a whale shark and therefore not under State protection.
    The shark was believed to have drifted into the area from the deep sea due to strong waves caused last week by Typhoon Imbudo. It had no open injuries but experts said they believed it suffered from internal（内部的）bleeding.
    Local police officer Fu Chenggeng said beachgoers should not feel threatened by sharks because the fish never attack human beings on their own initiative. Fu said he had never heard of any shark attacks at the Sanya beach since he first started work there eight years ago.
    However, police said they will improve the security system to safeguard tourists’ safety on the beach.
    1．A possible title of the article should be      .
    A．Tourists in Danger              B．Killing Whale Shark
    C．Shark Caught in Beach Area      D．Whale Shark in Danger
    2．From the article it can be learned      .
    A．the shark was caught because of obvious injuries 
    B．the number of the whale shark may be small
    C．typhoon Imbudo may have brought the shark to the area
    D．it’s not unusual to see a shark on the beach
    3．The underlined word “confirmed” probably means      .
    A．said      B．believed       C．thought        D．made sure
