    It's not a new phenomenon, but have you noticed how many nouns are being used as verbs? We all use them, often without noticing what we're doing.
    I was arranging to meet someone for dinner last week, and I said “I’ll pencil it in my diary”, and my friend said “You can ink it in”, meaning that it was a firm arrangement not a tentative one!
    Many of these new verbs are linked to new technology. An obvious example is the word fax. We all got used to sending and receiving faxes, and then soon started talking about faxing something and promising we'd fax it immediately. Then along came email, and we were soon all emailing each other madly. How did we do without it? I can hardly imagine life without my daily emails.
    Email reminds me, of course, of my computer and its software, which has produced another couple of new verbs. On my computer I can bookmark those pages from the World Wide Web that I think I'll want to look at again, thus saving all the effort of remembering their addresses and calling them up from scratch. I can do the same thing on my PC, but there I don't bookmark; I favorite—coming from “favorite pages”, so the verb comes from an adjective not a noun.
    Now my children bought me a mobile phone, known simply as a mobile and I had to learn yet more new verbs. I can message someone, that is, I can leave a message for them on their phone. Or I can text them, write a few words suggesting when and where to meet, for example. How long will it be before I can mobile them, that is, phone them using my mobile? I haven’t heard that verb yet, but I’m sure I will soon. Perhaps I’ll start using it myself!

    1. 1.

      1. A.
        it was a firm arrangement
      2. B.
        he prefers a pencil to a pen
      3. C.
        the arrangement should be written as a diary
      4. D.

        email

    Do you love the holidays, but hate gaining weight? You are not alone. Holidays are times for  celebrating. Many people are worried about their weight. With proper planning, though, it is possible to keep normal weight during the holidays. The idea is to enjoy the holidays but not to eat too much. You don't have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy.
    Here are some tips for preventing（阻止） weight gain and maintaining（维持） physical fitness: Don't skip meals. Before you leave home, have a small, low-fat meal or snack. This may help to avoid getting too excited before delicious foods.
    Control the amount of food. Use a small plate (about 10 inches) and put aside the large ones that may encourage you to "load up". You should be most comfortable eating an amount of food about the size of your fist (拳头).
    Begin with soup and fruit or vegetables. Fill up beforehand (预先) on water-based soup and raw fruit or vegetables. Or drink a large glass of water before you eat to help you to feel full.
    Stick to physical activity. Don’t let exercise take a break during the holidays. A 20-minute walk helps to burn off excess calories.
    Avoid(避免) high-fat foods. Dishes that look oily or creamy may have large amount of fat. Choose lean meat (瘦肉).Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables. Use lemon juice instead of creamy food

    I come from a city on the United States’east coast. It’s a ten-hour flight for me to get home from Shanghai. When I got off the plane, I took photos of the blue sky and white clouds along the way. After two weeks, I returned to Shanghai. Much to my surprise, the blue sky in Shanghai that I liked before was not as blue as that in the US. I couldn’t help wondering what had happened.
    A few days later, I went to tour Waitan (a famous tourist attraction in Shanghai) by the Huangpu River with some of my friends. There we saw five Ferrari sports cars by the side of the road. The red and yellow cars looked so nice that everyone was looking at them. However, when I turned my head, I noticed the sky over Waitan, I was shocked to find that the buildings in the Lujiazui area on the other side of Huangpu River could hardly be seen. It was then that I realized that Ferrari cars could be bought with money, but a blue sky couldn’t.
    Shanghai is an important economic (经济的) and trade center in China. It has made great contributions (贡献) to the whole nation’s economic development. However, we need to protect the environment during economic growth. Pollution is poisoning our air and our rivers. Without clean air and rivers, how will people be able to survive?

    Can you remember a morning when you’ve woken up to the ring of your alarm clock and wished you could stay in bed? You haven’t slept well, your hair is a mess. Worse, you can’t stop yawning. Yawning is universal to humans and many animals. Cats, dogs and fish yawn just like humans do! Yawning is an involuntary(无意识的,不自觉的) action during which you open your mouth and breathe deeply. The average duration of a yawn is about 6 seconds.
    The purpose and cause of yawning are still a mystery. Scientists are not sure what causes a yawn. People yawn when they are tired or bored, but they also yawn when they aren’t. There are many ideas explaining why we yawn.
    One idea is that yawning is a way for the body to become more alert by taking in more oxygen. A yawn increases the heart rate, forces carbon dioxide out of the lungs and blood stream, and brings oxygen to the brain. But one study showed that volunteers given a lot of oxygen did not yawn any less than before, while those given a lot of carbon dioxide did not yawn more.
    Another idea is that early humans used yawning as a form of communication. If one decided it was time to sleep, they would tell the others by yawning and they would do it in return to show they agreed.
    A third explanation comes from psychology professor Gordon Gallup of University at Albany in New York. He said that as people yawn, they cool off their brains. “Brains are like computers.” he said. “They only operate efficiently and effectively when they’re cool. Many things connected to yawning, like being tired, make the brain hot, and yawning can reduce the heat.”
    Scientists have sent people into space, and created terrible nuclear weapons, but there are lots of seemingly simple things, such as why we yawn, or hiccup（打嗝）, that they can’t figure out. Next time you are in class in the morning, let out a big yawn and watch to see how many of your classmates yawn in response!

    1. 1.

      What’s the purpose of the description of how bad you may feel when you’re woken up in the morning?

      1. A.
        To explain why humans yawn
      2. B.
        To explain how humans start yawning
      3. C.
        To lead into the topic of yawning
      4. D.
        To complain about being woken up by the clock
    2. 2.

      Which is not among the possible reasons for yawning mentioned in the passage?

      1. A.
        A way to show that you feel hot
      2. B.
        A way to get rid of carbon dioxide
      3. C.
        A way to cool off your brain
      4. D.
        A way to communicate
    3. 3.

      In which situation are you likely to yawn?

      1. A.
        When you feel frustrated
      2. B.
        The weather is hot
      3. C.
        Someone else yawns near you
      4. D.
        When you breathe in a lot of carbon dioxide
    4. 4.

      What can we learn from the passage?

      1. A.
        The real reason why humans and most animals yawn
      2. B.
        Hiccups are an involuntary human action similar to yawns
      3. C.
        The more an action can be studied, the easier it is to research
      4. D.
        Finding out why humans yawn should be easier than sending people into space

    A growing number of college students are applying to take entry tests for medical and dental （牙科的） schools among increasing graduate unemployment in Korea.
    “I’ve decided to apply for the test to enter a medical college to become a doctor, changing from my original plan to prepare for a lawyer qualification exam in order to get a more stable job in the future,” said a 24-year-old college graduate, Lee, who majored in business administration during his undergraduate schooling.
    The new medical and dental school system is getting popularity, attracting an increasing number of students every year since its appearance in 2004, as it is open to all college graduates regardless of their previous majors.
    The Education Development introduced the new medical and dental education system, in which college students with bachelor’s degrees are allowed to study medicine or dentistry by taking the Medical Education Test (MET) and Dental Education Test (DET).
    Ten medical schools and six dental colleges that have used the new system have received 4,377 applications (申请) for the entrance exams.
    Applicants are getting younger compared with those in their 20s representing 76.9 percent of the total. The tests might be easier for students with biology and chemistry majors, but graduates from other majors are also applying for the tests.
    Under the existing medical and dental education system, students should take a two-year premedical course followed by a four-year medical course.
    Students graduating under the new medical or dental education system are given master’s degrees, while those graduates who studied under the previous system have bachelor’s degrees

    1. 1.

      Why do more and more Korean students apply for medical schools?

      1. A.
        Because doctors are highly respected in Korea
      2. B.
        Because they want to get a more stable job
      3. C.
        Because medicine is easier to learn than other subjects
      4. D.
        Because the medical education system is reasonable
    2. 2.

      Students in the old system may spend _______ years at college to get bachelor’s degrees

      1. A.
        two
      2. B.
        four
      3. C.
        six
      4. D.
        seven
    3. 3.

      We can learn from the passage that _______

      1. A.
        it takes a longer time to get the master’s degree in the old system
      2. B.
        students may find it a lot easier to get a bachelor’s degree in medicine
      3. C.
        graduates from other majors like history are not allowed to apply for those schools
      4. D.
        the new system are not so popular as expected because of its high unemployment
    4. 4.

      What would be the best title for the passage?

      1. A.
        New Medical and Dental School System Is Carried Out in Korea
      2. B.
        Korean College Students Have a New Job Choice
