    Smoking is harmful. But as soon as you quit the habit, everything will be OK, right?

    Wrong.

    New research has found that even if you give up smoking, the damage it has done to your genes (基因) will stay there for a much longer time.

    In the research, a team of US scientists studied the blood of 16,000 people. Among them, some were smokers, some used to smoke, and the rest were non-smokers. Scientists compared their genes and found that more than 7,000 genes of smokers had changed-a number that is one-third of known human genes.

    According to NBC News, both heart disease and cancer are caused by genetic changes. Some people may have had the changes when they were born, but most people get them in their day-to-day lives while doing things like smoking.

    When you stop smoking, a lot of these genes will return to normal within five years.

    This means your body is trying to heal (治愈) itself of the harmful effects of smoking. But the changes in some of the genes stay for longer. They can stay for as long as 30 years.It’s almost like leaving a footprint on wet cement (水泥) 一it will always be there, even when you’ve walked away and when the cement becomes dry.

    Although the study results may make people unhappy, there is a bright side: the findings could help scientists invent medicine to treat genetic damage caused by smoking or find ways to tell which people have heart disease or cancer risks.

    1.The function of Paragraph 1 is to .

    A. give an example B. introduce the topic of the passage

    C. make an argument D. show the main idea of the passage

    2.Most genetic changes happen because of .

    A. people’s condition at birth B. environmental pollution

    C. people’s bad living habits D. heart disease and cancer

    3.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refers to .

    A. the cement B. the footprint

    C. the harmful effect D. the genetic change

    4.Which of the following statements is true?

    A. The findings are the fruit of more than three years’ research.

    B. The findings have prevented more people from starting smoking

    C. The findings offer evidence that a damaged gene can heal itself.

    D. The findings help to find cures for genetic damage caused by smoking.

    It’s not unusual for us to be together with our relatives on the weekends. But you know that holidays can be the chances for families to get together. Also, it may be a time to break your relationship because of some improper conversations. Now, Deborah Tannen, a Georgetown University professor, offers suggestions to improve communication at the holiday table. Let’s take a look.

    A round dinning table is best for promoting a lively conversation because everyone faces one another. So, avoid seating grandparents at the ends of a rectangular(长方形的）table, even though it is the traditional place of honor. The old may feel lonely there because they will be unable to hear or keep up with a conversation. So do female family members because they prefer to face each other when they talk. However, Men might look around at other things. “Guys may be more relaxed looking at the TV or other interesting things.” says Tannen.

    When talking, you should notice the people who are not involved in it. If you feel you are doing all the talk, wait to give others a chance to start. If you feel you can’t get a chance to speak, try to make yourself to start talking.

    Besides, Some families find that gatherings will go better if they take part in an outdoor activity. Going to a park for a walk may be more enjoyable than sitting around talking.

    1.According to the passages, seating the old at the ends of a rectangular table _______.

    A. might stop them from talking

    B. may make them feel uncomfortable

    C. is a good way to show them honor

    D. allows them to follow a conversation

    2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

    A. Men like to make more eye contact than women.

    B. Women prefer outdoor activities over sitting around talking.

    C. Men may be more relaxed while watching TV.

    D. Women always want to doing all the talk.

    3.The main purpose of the text is to _______.

    A. introduce Deborah Tannen

    B. give us some advice on how to spend holidays

    C. suggest how we can talk and act properly when families are getting together

    D. look at the person and listen to him when you are talking with others

    A short guide to surviving a post-election Thanksgiving

    Thanksgiving in the US is a celebration of the blessings of the previous year. This time it included one of the most divisive presidential campaigns. Even now it is over, the possibility of argument has not disappeared. Here we have some tips for you to survive this Thanksgiving.

    ●Cover up any signal of union

    It might be fine to have your Hillary bumper sticker in New York, but it isn't going to go down well in Wyoming, where 70% voted Trump. Similarly, your "I love Trump" T-shirt will probably not be popular in California, where 62% voted Hillary.1.．

    ●Practice your facial expression beforehand

    They say a picture tells 1,000 words. Your face is the same. 2.You need to invest some energy in making sure your true feelings are completely buried. Ten minutes in front of the mirror should be enough to perfect your neutral face. 3.Well, we suggest closing them. Easy.

    ●Have a list of neutral topics for the dinner table

    The weather is A favorite subject of the British. It is inoffensive, bland and can provide a good half-hour's chat, if done well. Everyone has an opinion on whether or not it is colder/hotter/wetter/windier than last year/10 years ago/when they were little. You can involve the whole family.4.With Clinton and Trump supporters largely split on whether climate change exists, it could inadvertently lead to politics. So it's maybe trickier for Americans than the weather-worn Brits. 5.After all, the rivalry between your American football team of choice and your cousin's may have a long and vitriolic history, but it is likely to be less poisonous than the current differences in your politics.

    A. Sports may not be a neutral subject.

    B. Biting your lip is simply not enough this holiday season.

    C. There are hundreds of outstanding topics for Thanksgiving.

    D. There is one slight downfall to this particular favorite.

    E. Are you one of those people whose eyes always tell the truth?

    F. So we advise leaving the T-shirt at home, and covering up the stickers.

    G. It would be fine, if people of different opinions would not spend Thanksgiving together.
