    Amelia Earhart's (1897-1937) childhood was not the typical girl’s. She liked nothing better than to explore the banks of the Missouri River, where she climbed trees and hunted rats with her rifle (步枪). She also built her own roller coaster(过山车 ).
    The exciting life of the American aviation (航空)pioneer is dramatized in the movie Amelia, which is due to come out on October 23.
    After Earhart paid a pilot $1 to take her up for a short fly in his plane, aviation became her love and career.
    As she later explained, “Never do things others can do and will do, if there are things others cannot do or will not do.”
    Earhart found herself a flying teacher and started to learn to fly. She took all sorts of jobs to pay for the lessons and to buy a second-hand plane on her 24th birthday.
    In 1932, Earhart flew solo across the Atlantic. She became the first woman to make the solo crossing. She also made a flying suit for women and went on to design other clothes for women who led active lives. “Now and then women should do for themselves what men have already done —— occasionally what men have not done ——thereby establishing themselves as persons, and perhaps encouraging other women toward greater independence of thought and action.” she said.
    When she was nearly 40, Earhart was ready for a final challenge—to be the first woman to fly around the world. However, in mid-flight, she and her navigator (导航员) disappeared in bad weather.
    Earhart will be forever remembered as a brave pioneer for both aviation and for women.
    59. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
    A. A movie about Earhart’s exciting life has come out.
    B. Earhart never did things others could and would do.
    C. Earhart’s love for aviation came after she flew a plane for a short time.
    D. In Earhart's opinion, women should think and act more independently.
    60. The underlined word in paragraph 2 means ____.
    A. presented           B. adopted            C. published          D. created
    61. From the passage we can know that ____.
    A. Earhart showed most interest in adventure trips to the Missouri River during her
    childhood
    B. Earhart s ambition was to fly across the Atlantic
    C. Earhart challenged herself constantly
    D. Besides flying, Earhart also designed planes and clothes
    62. You can probably find this article in        .
    A. a booklet            B. a newspaper       C. a guide book      D. an advertisement

      Moving in with a boyfriend causes women to eat more unhealthily and put on weight. But the opposite is true for men, whose long-term health benefits when they move in with a female partner.

       Dieticians at Newcastle University said both partners try to please one another, and so change their dietary habits to suit their other half.

       It leads men to eat more light meals, such as salads, fruit and vegetables, while women choose to make creamier, heavier dishes curry or rich pasta sauces, which may please their partner.

       Women still have the strongest long-term influence over the couple’s diet and lifestyle, as they still have the traditional role of shopper and cook in most households.

       The report, by Newcastle University’s Human Nutrition Research Centre, reviewed the finding of a variety of research projects from the UK, North America and Australia, which looked at the eating and lifestyle habits of couples.

       The research shows that women are more likely to put on weight and increase their consumption of foods high in fat and sugar when they move in with their partner.

       Women also use food as a comfort when dealing with emotional stress and have been found to gain weight when a relationship ends, while the same finding has not been observed in men.

       Many couples reported food as being central to their partnership, and eating together in the evening was particularly important to many.

       Report author and registered dietician Dr. Amelia Lake said, “The research has shown that your partner is a strong influence on lifestyle and people who are trying to live healthier lives should take this factor into consideration.”

    A. have few changes of their dietary habits

    C. don’t like foods high in fat and sugar at all

         A. not very heavy

         B. less in fat and sugar

         C. gentle

         D. not serious or important

    43. According to the report by Newcastle University’s Human Nutrition Research Centre, ________.

         A. women put on weight only because they want to suit their other half

         B. when men are faced with emotional stress, they will change their dietary habits

         C. eating together in the evening is a good way to communicate for couples
