Dust on furniture may be bad news for waistlines (腰围). But it’s far too early to add dusting to a weight-loss plan. Dietary fats and other materials that make up indoor dust can send a signal to human fat cells, telling them to grow. That process, in turn, might slow the body’s rate of burning energy. Such changes could add to any weight problems a person might have.
“We don’t know what that means to long-term health and certain diseases yet,” says Heather Stapleton, one of the study’s authors. But she notes that her team’s findings also raise a question of whether pollutants in dust might play some role in the growing, global problem of obesity (肥胖).
Stapleton and her colleagues collected dust from homes and offices. Studies found that some materials in the dust could turn on a protein (蛋白质) called PPAR-gamma 1. It’s found in many human tissues. Turning this protein on can cause fat cells to grow. Researchers think this protein may be involved in obesity. But a second study now finds evidence that certain fats are mostly to blame. Cooking oils may send out some of these fats into the air, where they eventually find their way into house dust. Or, the authors say, the fats might enter house dust as part of the hair or skin cells shed (脱落) by people or pets.
“While the findings are amazing,” says Mitchell Lazar, another study author, “these findings need to be taken as very limited.” Indeed, he adds several cautions about how the findings should be understood. “For one thing, people eat these fats in foods all of the time. That is likely to be a lot more than would be consumed from indoor dust,” he said.
1.What do we know about PPAR-gamma 1? _____
A. It comes from dust.
B. It leads to weight gain.
C. It can help get rid of dust.
D. It only appears in human bodies.
2. What’s the best title for the text? _____
A. Can house dust make us fat?
B. Why is it important to clean?
C. Anything to do to deal with dust?
D. What is the best way to lose weight?

As I walked along the Edgware Road, I felt as though the world was closing in on me. All the sounds I take for granted, had gone. I had entered a world of silence. This unsettling experience occurred a few weeks ago when I agreed to go deaf for the day to support the work of the charity Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, for which I am an ambassador.
When I managed to take a cab to the office of my manager, Gavin, I couldn’t hear what the taxi driver was saying to me. Conversation was impossible. Then, when I reached the office, I had to ring the intercom five times as I couldn’t hear a response.
Everybody said I was shouting at them--- I simply wasn’t aware of how loudly I was speaking as I couldn’t hear my own voice. Gavin kept telling me my phone was ringing, but I didn’t realize. I was too busy trying to concentrate on reading his lips. And when he tried to tell me a code to put into my phone, I had to keep asking him to repeat it, more slowly. Eventually he lost his patience and snapped at me: “Just give me the phone!” I was shocked.
People couldn’t be bothered to repeat themselves, so they kept trying to do things for me that I was perfectly capable of doing myself. I felt I’d lost control.
Being deaf for the day was extraordinarily tiring. I had to work so hard to “listen” with my eyes, get people’s attention and use my other senses to make up for my lack of hearing. It was a huge, exhausting effort.
Until that experience I didn’t realize how much I took my own hearing for granted, or the sorts of emotions and experiences deaf people go through. If a deaf person asks you to repeat something, never think: “It doesn’t matter.” It does matter.
1.Why did the author focus on reading Gavin’s lips?
A. By doing this he could understand what Gavin was saying.
B. He wanted to be aware of what the code was.
C. He attempted to get the code into the phone by himself.
D. He didn’t want to bother Gavin to repeat what he was saying.
2.What advice does the author give in the passage?
A. Speak at the top of your voice if you can’t hear others speaking.
B. Repeat things as slowly as possible for the deaf.
C. Take your own hearing for granted.
D. Do as many things as possible for the deaf.
3.What can be inferred from the passage?
A. It’s boring to live in a world of silence.
B. The author has to use gestures to communicate with his friends.
C. There are many other ways to help the deaf understand others.
D. Many ordinary people just take hearing for granted until they lose it.
4.What can be the best title of the passage?
A. Helping the Deaf with More Patience
B. Don’t Take Your Hearing for Granted
C. Listening with Eyes
D. The Importance of Reading Lips

Here are two places that you may want to pay a visit to.
Sark, Channel Islands
This is one of the few places in the world where tradition still stands and the traditional ways are fully respected. The roads here remain not cemented（铺水泥）, and are not even paved, and they are completely dark at night as there are no street lights. The residents of Sark are not allowed to drive cars, and if they do, they have to keep them outside Sark. The transportation you can use in Sark includes your legs, bicycles or a horse-drawn carriage. There are no motor vehicles here.
There are many activities you can enjoy here during the day, but when the night comes, the only thing you can do outside is look at the sky, which is really great. Because of the lack of artificial lights, the stars are very clearly visible.
Hyderabad, India
This southeastern city of India was the city where one of the wealthiest people in the world lived, Mir Osman Ali Khan. Now this city is the place where many global IT brands hold their head offices. But it hasn’t lost its historic looks, as it remains surrounded by ancient boulders（大圆石）, and the modern houses recently built are surrounded by traditional gardens and lakes. From the great hotel Taj Falaknuma Palace you can see the Old City where the old Indian tradition is well preserved.
The best time to travel to Hyderabad depends on whether you are going for the city itself, or you wish to go to some of the festivals that take place here. The Hyderabad Literary Festival takes place from the 23rd to the 26th of January, while a festival celebrating various cultures, the Deccan Festival, happens from February 25 to March I.

Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self - conscious; that is, they are concerned with their own appearance and actions too much. Negative thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: What kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?
It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably. A person’s self- concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person behaves affects other people’s reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a deep effect on all areas of their lives.
Shy people, who have low respect, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need faith that they are doing “the right thing”. Shy people are very sensitive to criticism. It makes them feel inferior (自卑).They also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise. A shy person may respond to a praise with a statement like this one: “You’re just saying that to make me feel good, I know it’s not true. ” It is clear that, while self- awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.
Can shyness be completely got rid of, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determination since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self respect. It is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths. Each one of us has his or her own characteristics. We are interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our chances for a rich and successful life.
1.The first paragraph is mainly about ______.
A. the cause of shyness
B. the effect of shyness on people
C. the feelings of shy people
D. the questions in the minds of shy people
2.According to the writer, self-awareness is ______.
A. harmful to people
B. a weak point of shy people
C. the cause of unhappiness
D. a healthy quality
3.What is the shy people’s reaction to praise?
A. They are pleased by it.
B. They feel it is not true.
C. They are very sensitive to it.
D. They feel they are worthy of it.
4.We can learn from the passage that shyness can ______.
A. be overcome with determination
B. help us to live up to our full development

Whether rich or poor, parents who have books in the home increase the level of education their children will attain, according to a 20-year study led by Mariah Evans.
For years, educators have thought the strongest predictor of attaining high levels of education was having parents who were highly educated. But, the study showed that the difference between being raised in a bookless home compared to being raised in a home with a 500-book library has as great an effect on the level of education a child will attain as the difference between having parents who are barely literate (有文化的) and having parents who have a university education.
Being a sociologist, Evans was particularly interested to find that children of lesser-educated parents benefit the most from having books in the home. What kinds of investments should we make to help these kids get ahead? The results of this study indicate that getting some books into their homes is an inexpensive way that we can help these children succeed. Evans said, "Even a little bit goes a long way. Having as few as 20 books in the home still has a significant impact on motivating a child to a higher level of education, and the more books you add, the greater benefit the children get.”
The researchers were struck by the strong effect having books in the home had on children's educational attainment even above and beyond such factors as education level of the parents, the father's occupation or the economic level of the country.
Having books in the home is twice as important as the father's education level, and more important than whether a child was brought up in a developing country or a developed country. Surprisingly, the difference in educational attainment for children born in developed country and children born in developing country was just 2 years, less than two-thirds of the effect that having 500 or more books in the home had on children.
1.In the past educators held a point of view that ______ .
A. children whose family had a library would possibly attain high levels of education
B. children who were born in poor families studied harder than those in rich families
C. parents’ level of education had nothing to do with their children’s levels of education
D. children whose parents are highly educated would attain high levels of education
2.What does the underlined word “motivating” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Making somebody determined to do something.
B. Helping somebody to finish something
C. Making somebody ready to do something.
D. Preventing somebody from achieving something.
3.Which of the following has the most important effect on the level of education a child will attain?
A. The economic level of the country.
B. The father’s occupation.
C. Education levels of parents.
D. Having books in the home.
4.What is the best title for the passage?
A. The best investment parents should make.
B. Ways to make children get a higher level of education.
C. Reading books is good for the development of children.
D. Books in home have a great effect on children’s education levels.

A
Ten years ago I used to be very fit. I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those days I didn’t earn very much. I had a job in an office. It wasn’t a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing. Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn’t have any time for things like that any more. There’s a lot of stress in my job. Perhaps that is why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling my glass to the top, and instead of having one glass, I would have several. I started smoking a lot, too. I never used to smoke at all. Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldn’t believe it. Luckily it wasn’t very serious. The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less. He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just haven’t any time! My job takes everything out of me! Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job. Perhaps I could do something like I used to do. But if I do that, I won’t earn as much. I have a family to support. I have to think of them, too. I just don’t know what I should do. What do you think?
1.Compared with ten years ago, what is worse for the author now?
A. His job. B. His pay.
C. His means of transport. D. His health.
2.According to the passage, when the author got the better job, which of the following is NOT true?
A. He got higher pay.
B. His working hours weren’t long.
C. He found it very stressful.
D. He had little free time at weekends.
3.After the author had a heart attack, the doctor advised him _____.
A. not to work any longer
B. to take a long vacation abroad
C. to stop smoking and take exercise
D. not to eat out any more
4.What can we learn about the author?
A. The author is not sure what he should do now.
B. The author has taken the doctor’s advice.
C. The author has got another new job.
D. The author feels much better now.
