2.Movie producers love the idea,partly because  it's so afraid and partly because it could really happen.The scene is this:an asteroid(小行星) is rushing toward Earth.A collision is unavoidable.When this happens,lots of people will die.
In the movies,a brave hero thinks of a clever plan to destroy the asteroid and save Earth.In real life,scientists have come up with more reasonable plans that might actually work if this situation comes up.
One way,say scientists and astronauts,is a 20ton spacecraft called a gravitational tractor.First,the tractor,would move quickly up to the threatening asteroid and stop a short distance away.It would hang there,firing its thrusters just enough to fight the force of gravity between the spacecraft and the asteroid.
The tractor could then use its own gravity to pull the asteroid off course.It would take about a year for the spacecraft to draw an asteroid away from Earth's path.
The question is that the spacecraft would have to arrive at the asteroid about 20years before it hits Earth.It would be easier then to move the asteroid out of the way than it would be if the asteroid was near the Earth.
Still,the tractor idea is better than many ways proposed years ago for asteroid avoidance.Exploding asteroids,for example,wouldn't work because the rocky bodies are too full of air.
Don't spend too much time worrying about asteroids'falling on your house,however.The chances of a collision happening in your lifetime are very small.If     ,though,scientists will do everything they can to keep you from getting hurt.Sounds very heroic to me!

76.What is the main idea of the article?(Please answer within 10words.)
How to Save Earth from a Collision with an Asteroid
77.How should we save earth from a collision in real life?(Please answer within 10words.)

78.Express the meaning of the underlined sentence in another way.
The spacecraft would spend about a year drawing an asteroid away from Earth's path.
79.What does it in the first paragraph refer to?
An asteroid is rushing toward Earth.
80.Please fill in the blank with proper words or phrases.(Please answer within 10words.)
If it does happen.

13.[1]We all know eating out can be a lot of fun.There's the experience of having someone wait on your every need,the social aspect of being in a restaurant with friends and,of course,the great benefit of the lack of in-home cleanup.
[2]We all also know eating out can be expensive,and I'm pretty sure college isn't the most financially successful time in a normal person's life.That's why eating at home for a majority of meals really is the only option for many college students.
[3]Eating at home doesn't have to be dull,boring,or difficult.It can and should be an energetic,creative experience that transforms the way you look at food.When you cook for yourself,you know exactly how your pasta(意大利面) is going to turn out.You know where the greens in your salad come from.You know the olive oil you're using really comes from olives that are pressed for the first time.Use eating at home as an opportunity to learn and develop your kitchen skills.I promise you they will remain useful and rewarding for the rest of your life.
[4]Another important concept is to keep in mind that when it comes to shopping for food-less quantity,more quality.Buy base ingredients that are fresh,as local as possible and beautiful,and anything you cook will improve greatly.I promise you will be just as satisfied by eating a little bit less of something with a lot more quality.
[5]I am not saying eating out is a bad thing.But I insist there are many more places that are not worth your cash.Put a little more effort into cooking for yourself at home and you will gain experience and appreciation for the world of food.

76.List three benefits of eating out according to the text.(no more than 20words)
①The waiters can wait on you.②You can stay with your friends.③You don't have to do the clean-up.
77.Complete the following statement according to Paragraph 2.(no more than 4words)
Many college students have to eat at home because offinancial problems/(a) lack of money.
78.What's Paragraph 3mainly about?(no more than 7words)The advantages/benefits of eating at home.
79.What advice is given concerning shopping for food in Paragraph 4?(no more than 4words)Less quantity,more quality.
80.Do you like eating at home?State your own reasons.(no more than 20words)Yes,I will gain experience and appreciation for the world of food..

10.Too much eating.Too many unhealthy foods.Too many advertisements for food.Too little activity.Different explanations are offered for America's weight problem-a problem increasingly shared by other countries.Almost one-fifth of American children and teenagers are overweight.
Schools have been urged to increase physical education,an important tool for public health.And many have.Yet now comes a study showing an increase in the number of injuries in"phys ed"class.Injuries increased one hundred fifty percent between nineteen ninety-seven and two thousand seven.
The study involved injuries treated in hospital emergency departments.Only two percent were serious.
The researchers did not try to identify the causes of the increase,but they have some theories.
Lara McKenzie from Ohio State University was the lead researcher.She says one possibility is a decrease in the number of school nurses during the period they studied.For example,a two thousand four study showed that the number of school nurses nationally failed to meet federal guidelines.Schools without a nurse on duty may be more likely to send an injured child to a hospital.
Another possible reason for more injuries is a change in the traditional idea of physical education.This"New P.E."expands the kinds of sports that are taught.But activities that some schools offer now,like rock climbing and skateboarding,can also expand the risks,says Cheryl Richardson.She is with the National Association for Sport and Physical Education.
Also,she says not all states require P.E.teachers to be specially trained.Untrained teachers could be less likely to recognize unsafe conditions.
Cheryl Richardson also points to one of the study's findings-that injuries are often the result of contact with a person or a structure.This tells her that the teachers were not giving each student enough space to move around safely.
Six activities produced seventy percent of all injuries:running,basketball,football,volleyball,soccer and gymnastics.
The researchers say larger class sizes are another possible reason for the increase in injuries.Larger classes can mean less supervision.The National Association for Sport and Physical Education says twenty to thirty students in a P.E.class should be the limit.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS)

81.How do many schools deal with the problem that more children are overweight?
By increasing physical education.
82.What's the result of expanding the kinds of sports taught in school?
The risks of getting injured increase/expand.(The number of injuries in"phys ed"class increases)
83.P.E.teachers without special training are more likely toneglect unsafe conditions.
84.After reading the passage,please give at least two suggestions to an American school on how to reduce injuries in"phys ed"classes.
Increase the number of school nurses; avoid high risk activities; provide enough space; employ specially trained P.E.teachers; limit the size of a P.E class..

7.Chinese cuisine (菜肴) is widely known and enjoyed in the world.But there is one interesting concept concerning Chinese food which is almost unheard of in the West,and which is becoming increasingly ignored by the youth of the East-the ancient custom of"tonic food."
Tonic food is food which is consumed to improve one's well-being,or stave off sickness,particularly at times when one is more likely to fall ill.For instance,it was once the custom for new mothers to eat a sesame-oil hot pot every day for the first month after giving birth.It was believed that this dish would benefit the muscles,reduce pain,improve circulation,stimulate sweating,and warm the body.
In fact,some Western theories of health are similar to the beliefs in Chinese tonic food,although each takes a different path toward the very same goal.Western medicine actually recommends some of the exact same ingredients that make up tonic foods.Sesame oil can provide lots of calories,and chicken meat is particularly high in protein.Any Western doctor should be happy to suggest such a Chinese dish after childbirth.
The elderly,weak,and young can also benefit greatly from tonic foods,especially during the winter.Some foods,such as goat meat and spinach,are seen as"hot,"while others,such as Chinese cabbage and radish,are seen as"cold."One should be careful not to eat too much of either"hot"or"cold"food.However,how much"hot"or"cold"food one should eat depends on the time of the year,how the food is prepared and what it is prepared with,and the individual's health.
"Warm"or"cool"tonic foods are strongly recommended.The choices for"warm"and"cool"foods range from simple sea cucumber to the delicacy of bird's nest soup,depending on the individual's economic circumstances.
The concept of tonic food is far from losing credibility,either with Westerners or practitioners of modern medicine.For example,up until two years ago,tonic foods were added to the meals served at a renowned hospital.

81.What attitude do the young in the East hold towards"tonic food"?(不超过5个词)They are increasingly ignoring it.
82.Why are some Western theories of health considered similar to the Chinese beliefs in tonic food?(不超过11个词) 
Because we stern medicine recommend ssomeing redients that make up to nice foods.
83.List four factors deciding the amount of tonic food.(不超过20个词)
The time of the year,how the food is prepared,what it is prepared with,and the individual's health.
84.What does the passage mainly talk about?(不超过6个词)Introduction about tonic food./Knowledge about tonicfood..
