    The book A Big Fat Crisis: The Hidden Forces Behind Obesity Epidemic— and How We Can End It by Deborah Cohen, a senior natural scientist, is very popular now. 1. But according to this book, the following are some misunderstandings of obesity or being overweight.

    1．If you're obese, blame your genes.

    2. Yet, between 1980 and 2000, the number of Americans who are obese has doubled—too quickly for genetic factors to be responsible. At restaurants, a dollar puts more calories on our plates than ever before, because restaurant meals usually have more calories than what we prepare at home, so people who eat out more frequently have higher rates of obesity than those who eat out less.

    2．If you're obese, you lack self?control.

    Research shows that if we are faced with too much information, we have a tendency to make poor choices on diet. 3. Even, the most vigilant(警觉的)people may not be good controllers of themselves.

    3．4.

    Although the US Department of Agriculture estimates that fewer than 5 per cent of Americans live in the “food deserts”， about 65 per cent of the nation's population is obese. For most of us, obesity is not related to access to more fresh fruits and vegetables, but to the choices we make in supermarkets.

    4．The problem is not that we eat too much, but that we don't exercise.

    Michelle Obama's “Let's Move” campaign is based on the idea that if kids exercise more, childhood obesity rates will decrease. 5. In fact, although a drop in work?related physical activity may explain up to 100 fewer calories burned, leisure physical activity appears to have increased.

    A．Lack of access to fresh fruits and vegetables is a cause of obesity.

    B．Obesity rates have increased.

    C．Fresh fruits and vegetables we choose in a supermarket are related to obesity.

    D．But there was no obvious decrease in physical activity levels as obesity rates climbed in the 1980s and 1990s.

    E．People hold different views on obesity.

    F．People benefit a lot from physical activities.

    G．Our world has become so rich in food that we can be led to consume too much in ways we can't understand.

    When students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their importance，the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list. Music is nice , people seem to say , but not important. Too often it is viewed as entertainment, but certainly not an education priority（优先）.This view is shortsighted. In fact, music education is beneficial and important for all students

    Music tells us who we are. Because music is an expression of the beings who create it, it reflects their thinking and values, as well as the social environment it came from. Rock music represents a lifestyle just as surely as does a Schubert song. The jazz influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions. Music expresses our character and values .It gives us identity as a society.

    Music provides a kind of perception（视角）that cannot be acquired any other way. Science can explain how the sun rises and sets .The arts explore the emotive（情感的）meaning of the same phenomenon. We need every possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason: No one way can get it all.

    The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communicate as mathematical and scientific symbols. They are ways we human beings “talk” to each other. They are the language of civilization through which we express our fears, our curiosities our hungers, our discoveries, our hopes .The arts are ways we give form to our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others. When we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music, we take away from them the meanings that music expresses.

    So music education is far more necessary than people seem to realize.

    1.According to paragraph 1, students_______.

    A. regard music as a way of entertainment

    B. disagree with their parents on education

    C. view music as an overlooked subject

    D. prefer the arts to science

    2.In Paragraph 2, the author uses jazz as an example to           .

    A. compare it with rock music

    B. show music identifies a society

    C. introduce American musical traditions

    D. prove music influences people’s lifestyles

    3.According to the passage , the arts and science           .

    A. approach the world from different angles

    B. explore different phenomena of the world

    C. express people’s feeling in different ways

    D. explain what it means to be human differently

    4.What is the main idea of the passage?

    A. Music education deserves more attention.

    B. Music should be of top education priority.

    C. Music is an effective communication tool.

    D. Music education makes students more imaginative.

    阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

    If you take a look at the best-selling books in the UK these days, it is almost certain that there will be a lot of autobiographies (自传) in that list. Bill Clinton, Nelson Mandela and actor Michael J Fox have all written them. An autobiography is the story of a person?s life, written by that person. It is usually a very famous person who might tell us all about their childhood, how they became famous and any other interesting things that have happened in their lives.

    Traditionally, someone would write an autobiography when they were older because they had had a long, successful life. However, these days there are many magazines with stories and photos of the stars which sell very well. Reality TV shows are extremely popular and lots of people become famous very easily just from being on the TV rather than being able to sing or act well. As a result, people become famous very quickly and as soon as they are famous, a lot of money can be made from writing an autobiography, even if they are very young.

    So now you can find an autobiography from almost everyone who is in the public eye. Even though we can follow the lives of the stars very closely on TV or in magazines nowadays, we maybe don?t know how they live their lives from day to day. Autobiographies often give the information we never knew about the stars. The British public are very curious to find out more so they are very eager to read autobiographies.

    Not every star wants to write though. Sometimes stars employ writers to write their life stories for them. The writer will interview the stars, listen to everything they want to say, record interviews and then write books based on their words. David Beckham did this with his book My Side.

    Not everyone likes to read books regularly but they might like to read about the lives of stars. Autobiographies are helping to get more British people reading books. About 100 million autobiographies are sold in Britain every year. More stars depend on them for extra income and as more of these books appear in the shops, more people are sure to keep buying them.

    On 29 May last year, I was doing my swim training for a half Ironman race in the bay near my home.

    I was finishing my first loop (圈) when I felt jaws coming around my body and a sharp pain. The water was dark, so I couldn’t see anything. It just came out of nowhere and then it was gone in a flash. I knew it was something really big and assumed it was a shark. I panicked, but knew I needed to get out of the water. I was kicking wildly in case it came back. There was a lifeguard boat close by, so I waved my arms in the air and screamed for help. It got to me within 20 seconds. At that point I didn’t feel anything; adrenaline (肾上腺素) had taken over. The lifeguards held me under the arms and pulled me up out of the water. Then the pain kicked in and it was pretty hard to bear. Some muscle had been bitten off my right arm. I felt a lot of warm, gushing blood.

    My chest felt heavy, as if someone had put their foot on it, and I was having trouble breathing. It was extremely painful. When I got to the hospital, I told the nurses to put me to sleep because of the pain. I just wanted them to fix me.

    I woke up after surgery four hours later. My doctor was amazed when I managed to move my fingers: the bite just missed a major nerve. My right lung had been damaged; I had several broken bones and a nerve in my leg was cut, so I have reduced feeling at the top of my leg. The shark also bit through my upper back muscle.

    Local experts determined that the shark was probably 9-10 feet long. It was young, about seven years old. It just attacked me, left and didn’t come back because it figured I wasn’t food.

    1.The writer mentions Adrenaline in Paragraph 2 to ________.

    A. explain why she didn’t feel pain at that time

    B. offer a possible reason the shark attacked her

    C. show how dangerous the situation was then

    D. describe the suffering a shark bite could cause

    2.The writer of the text can be best described as ________.

    A. grateful B. confident

    C. tough D. aggressive

    3.Which of the following might be the best title for the text?

    A. A Shark from Nowhere

    B. Surviving a Shark Attack

    C. A Race against Time

    D. No Panic over Sharks at Sea

    Most people say that they do not usually feel confident. But exciting things can happen when we actually believe in ourselves. Here is a man who believed in his own ability even as a boy, and that confidence helped shape his adult life.

    At the turn of the last century, a young boy quit school to help with the family expenses. When he was fifteen, he became interested in automobiles(汽车) and worked in a garage. He subscribed to a correspondence course on automobiles and, after a long day in the garage, studied at the kitchen table in the lamplight.

    When he felt ready, he walked into the Frayer-Miller Automobile Company of Columbus, Ohio. When Mr. Frayer noticed him, he asked, “Well, what do you want?”

    “I just thought I’d tell you I’m coming to work here tomorrow morning,” the boy replied. 

    “Oh! Who hired you?”

    “Nobody yet, but I’ll be on the job in the morning. If I’m not worth anything, you can fire me.”

    Early the next morning the boy returned to the plant. Noticing the floor was thick with metal shavings and accumulated dirt, the boy got a broom and set out to clean the place.

    Because of his self-confidence and work ethic, the boy’s future was predictable. He went on to stand out in many fields, including automobile racing, piloting World War I planes and founding one of America’s largest airline companies ---- Eastern Airlines.

    People who become more confident habitually encourage themselves. Without confidence, we are not likely to move far in the direction of our dreams. It is important that we always believe in ourselves. In order to reach victory, we must believe in ourselves even when we make mistakes

    1.How did the boy learn knowledge concerning automobiles?

    A. He attended school in the daytime.

    B. He studied hard at home.

    C. He read books in the garage where he worked.

    D. He turned to some instructors for help.

    2.We can learn from the boy’s words that _____.

    A. he wanted to show off his competence

    B. he looked down upon others

    C. he was very generous

    D. he believed in himself

    3.Due to his efforts and confidence, the boy _____.

    A. made World War I planes

    B. learned much knowledge in a garage

    C. achieved everything in his life

    D. set up Eastern Airlines

    4.What is the purpose of the passage?

    A. To inspire us with self-confidence.

    B. To tell us an interesting story.

    C. To inspire us to work hard.

    D. To stress the importance of realizing our dreams.

    Wilkie Collins was born in London in 1824 and his first novel -- a historical romance called“Anatonia” -- was published when he was 26. Shortly after this he met Charles Dickens, and they formed a close friendship that lasted for ten years and influenced both men's writing. Collins went on to publish 25 novels as well as many short stories, plays and works of non-fiction. However, he is most well known for the two mystery novels “The Woman in White” and “The Moonstone”.

    Collins published both mysteries as serials in All the Year Round. When it appeared in the magazine in 1860, “The Woman in White” was so popular that it became the subject of a song and a play. It even influenced fashion, and many women started to dress in white. Eight years later “The Moonstone” was published and earned Collins the title "the father of the modern English detective novel". T S Elliot, another famous writer, said that The Moonstone was the "first and greatest of English detective novels", and it is still admired by modern crime writers today.

    An author of many mysteries, Dorothy L Sayers considered “The Moonstone” to be "probably the finest detective story ever written", and many people agree with her. There are several reasons why they think so. One is that Collins uses different characters to tell each section of the story. The characters have very different personalities and voices, which are interesting and often amusing. There are also several features of the plot which started trends in mystery writing. For example, many detective stories are set in a country house, where the theft must have been committed by one of the people in the house. The character of a famous detective with an unusual appearance and habits occurs in many books, and an innocent person is often under suspicion at first. A number of modern films have also used the idea of a cursed jewel stolen from a religious statue. And of course, in The Moonstone and most other good mystery novels, the person who at first seems the least likely to be the criminal turns out to be guilty.

    1.Anatonia was published in ________.

    A. 1824 B. 1850

    C. 1860 D. 1868

    2.All the Year Round was a title of ____.

    A. one of Wilkie Collins’ books B. one of Charles Dickens’ books

    C. a story of a magazine D. a magazine

    3.Collins is known as the father of the modern English detective novel because_______.

    A. he was older than the other detective story writers.

    B. his son was also a famous detective story writer.

    C. many aspects of his writing are copied by other detective story writers.

    D. the Moonstone is the most popular detective story.
