    On a hot summer day in America a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. He dived into the cool water, not realizing that as he swam towards the middle of the lake, a crocodile (鳄鱼) was swimming toward him.

    His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him. From the shore, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war (拔河) between the two. The crocodile was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the crocodile.

    Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches where his mother's fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.

    The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Mom wouldn’t let go.”

    Never judge another person's scars, because you don't know how they were made.

    1.Which of the following is most related to the underlined word “passionate”?

    A. Anxious. B. Determined.

    C. Frightened. D. Courageous.

    2.By saying “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too” in the fourth paragraph, the boy really wants to show__________.

    A. how many scars and scratches he had

    B. how deep the scars made by the crocodile were

    C. how great and beloved his mother was

    D. what a brave and courageous boy he was

    3.In the story the writer intends to tell us that __________.

    A. scars always remind people of their past experiences

    B. it’s dangerous to swim alone in the water

    C. the boy also feels painful in his mind

    D. scars do not necessarily mean pain at all times

    4.Which of the following will be the best title for the text?

    A. A Terrible Experience

    B. Women Hold up Half the Sky

    C. Scars of Love

    D. Don't Judge by Appearances

    Question: Which program is in Guinness World Records as the world’s longest running TV quiz show? Answer: “It’s Academic.”

    “It’s Academic” is a Saturday morning program for high school students. The show has been broadcast in the Washington area for fifty years. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton competed on the show when she was a teenager. Teams from local schools are questioned about subjects like history, literature, math, science, religion, politics and sports.

    Sophie was a TV producer in the 1950s. She started “It’s Academic” after local school officials asked her to create a program that showed outstanding students.

    The show’s host, 84-year-old Mac McGarry, who has hosted “It’s Academic” since the beginning, says, “When we first started, the young people from various countries were not evident so much. Now, each program presents young people from all over the world, at least descendants (后裔) from people all over the world.”

    Mac McGarry said, “Every time I look up, I see people who are just seventeen years old. And I think, ‘Well, I must not be growing older at all. They are full of enthusiasm. I really have to become more active to keep up with them.’” More than 20,000 students have appeared on the show. Mac McGarry has asked more than 200,000 questions and gotten more than a few funny answers.

    Kelly Reeder led the team from Rockville High School in Maryland last year. Her school has won the championship on “It’s Academic” several times. She says, “We have put in a lot of effort over the years. It’s a really huge honor to end up on the A Team. My friends who are on ‘It’s Academic’ think it’s cool that I’m the captain of the A Team, but my friends who are not on ‘It’s Academic’ think it’s kind of funny.”

    1.We learn from the text that “It’s Academic” .

    A. was started half a century ago

    B. was produced by Hillary Clinton

    C. is broadcast across the US every week

    D. is a TV show based on Guinness records

    A. pick out outstanding students

    B. focus on students’ schoolwork

    C. attract more TV viewers

    D. accomplish a given task

    3.In Paragraph 4, McGarry mainly wants to say .

    A. the show was not popular at first

    B. they overcame difficulties in the beginning

    C. the teams in the show are quite different now

    D. the show becomes the longest running TV show

    4.By saying “I must not be growing older at all”, McGarry means that she .

    People who are slightly overweight or mildly obese(肥胖的) have a lower risk of early death than normal weight individuals(个人;个体), according to a new analysis of nearly 100 international studies.

    The studies, most conducted within the past decade, included about three million adults from around the world. The result of these studies by researchers at the National Center for Health Statistics in Maryland, part of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, shows that slightly overweight or obese people were six percent less likely to die from all causes compared to people of normal weight. But the researchers found that seriously obese individuals were still at a 30 percent greater risk of death compared to healthy-weight individuals.

    Study lead author Katherine Flegal says she was not surprised that overweight people would not have a higher death risk. “Because we'd actually already read a lot of this literature and realized that death rates for overweight would be at least not higher than normal[weight," she said. “I guess l was a little bit surprised that it was definitely lower. And l was also surprised that the lower rates of obesity didn't seem to differ from normal weight."

    But Flegal stresses the difference in death rates appear to be small between normal-weight people and overweight and mildly obese individuals.

    The finding by Flegal and colleagues have raised new questions about the reliability(可靠性)of the so-called "body mass index" or BMI, a measurement of body fat as a ratio(比例，比率)of height to weight, that has become popular in recent years among public health experts to measure potential health risks.

    But Heymsfield warns that individuals should not conclude that it's okay to put on extra kilograms, since being at a healthy weight lowers the risk for heart disease and diabetes.

    1.Katherine Flegal feels surprised at the fact that____.

    A. obese people have higher death rates

    B. slightly obese people have lower death rates

    C. obese people tend to die early

    D. death rates have nothing to do with body weight

    2.What do we learn from the fifth paragraph?

    A. BMI may not be so reliable.

    B. The study provides further evidence for BMI.

    C. BMI tells nothing about potential health risks.

    D. BMI has been much questioned recently.

    3.What can we conclude from the passage'?

    A. It's OK to put on extra weight.

    B. It doesn't matter if you are slightly obese.

    C. Obese people are much healthier.

    D. Body weight has nothing to do with death rates.

    4.What topic does the passage mainly deal with?

    A. Technology. B. Dieting. C. Health. D. Death.
