It is very important for people to drink water in our everyday life. Many people believe they are supposed to drink eight glasses of water a day, or about two liters. Why? Because that is what they have been told all their life. But a recent report offers some different advice. Experts say people should obey their bodies; they should drink as much water as they feel like drinking. The report says most healthy people meet their daily needs for liquid by letting thirst be their guide. The report is from the Institute of Medicine, part of the National Academies. The report contains some general suggestions. The experts say women should get about 2.7 liters of water daily. Men should get about 3.7 liters. But wait——in each case, that is more than eight glasses.

There is one important difference. The report does not tell people how many glasses of water to drink. In fact, the experts say it may be impossible to know how many glasses are needed to meet these guidelines. This is because the daily water requirement can include the water content in foods. People do not get water only by forcing themselves to drink a set number of glasses per day. People also drink fruit juices and sodas and milk. They drink coffee and tea. These all contain water. Yet some also contain caffeine. This causes the body to expel(排出)more water. But the writers of the report say this does not mean the body loses too much water.

As you might expect, the Institute of Medicine says people need to drink more water when they are physically active. The same is true of those who live in hot climates. Depending on heat and activity, people could need two times as much water as others do. All this, however, does not answer one question. No one seems sure why people have the idea that good health requires eight glasses of water daily.

It may have started with a misunderstanding. In 1945, the National Academy of Sciences published some guidelines. Its Food and Nutrition Board(营养膳食) said a good amount of water for most adults was 2.5 liters daily. This was based on an average of one milliliter(毫升)for each calorie of food eaten. But that was only part of what the board said. It also said that most of this amount is contained in prepared foods.

56. In experts’ opinion, every day a person should drink ____.

   A. as much water as he can                                            B. more than eight glasses of water

   C. according to actual need for his body                     D. when he comes in sight of water

57. What is mainly described in the second paragraph?        

   A. People know about the daily water requirement.        

B. People need water instead of all kinds of drink.

   C. People get daily water not only from drinking.    

D. People drink all kinds of drink every day.

58. Who might drink less water according to the third paragraph?

59. The writer mentions the guidelines in 1945 to ____.

   A. meet with good results                                                        B. follow the advice

   C. give up his idea                                                              D. correct the conclusion

    Every day we go to school and listen to the teacher, and the teacher will ask us some questions. Sometimes, the classmates will ask for your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends— they will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. In the class, you must speak so that they can hear you—loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself.

Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you. The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease (not worried) but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation. You must take special care that you can be heard.

Tess still stood hesitating like a swimmer about to make his dive, hardly knowing whether to return or move forward, when a figure came out from the dark door of the tent. It was a tall young man, smoking.

    He had an almost black face, though red and smooth. His moustache was black with curled points, though he could not be more than twenty-three or-four. There was all unusual force in his face, and in his daring rolling eyes.

    “Well, my beauty, what can I do for you?” said he, coming forward. And seeing that she was quite at a loss: “Never mind me, I am Mr. d’Urbervilles. Have you come to see me or my mother”

    This differed greatly from what Tess had expected. She had dreamed of an aged and dignified face. She tried to keep calm and answered-“I came to see your mother, sir.”

    “I am afraid you cannot see her-she is ill in bed,” replied the representative of the house; for this was Mr. Alec, the only son of the noble family. “What is the business you wish to see her about?”

    “It isn’t business-it is-I can hardly say what.”

    “Pleasure”

    “Oh no. Why, sir, if I tell you, it will seem…”

    Tess’s sense of a certain ridicule was now so strong that despite her general discomfort at being here, her rosy lips curved（弯曲）towards a smile, much to the attraction of the young man.

    “It is so foolish,” she stammered（结结巴巴地说）; “I fear I can’t tell you”

    “Never mind; I like foolish things. Try again, my dear,” said he kindly.

    “Mother asked me to come,” Tess continued, “and, indeed, I was in the mind to do so myself.  But I did not think it would be like this. I came, sir, to tell you that we are of the same family as you.”

    “Ho! Poor relations!”

    “Yes.”

    “Stokes”

    “No; d’Urbervilles.”

    “Ay, ay; I mean d’Urbervilles.”

    “Our names are worn away to Durbeyfield; but we have several proofs that we are d’Urbervilles. The local scholars hold the view that we are, …and…and we have an old seal（印章）and a silver spoon marked with the same castle as yours. So mother said we ought to make ourselves known to you, as we’ve lost our horse by a bad accident; we can hardly make a living.”

    “Very kind of your mother, I’m sure.” Alec looked at Tess as he spoke, in a way that made her uneasy. ”And so, my pretty girl, you’ve come on a friendly visit to us, as relations.”

    “I suppose I have,” looking less confident and uncomfortable again.

    “Well—there’s no harm in it. Where do you live? What are you?”

                                       —Tess of the d’Urbervilles By Thomas Hardy

67. How does Tess feel in the whole course of the meeting with Alec？

        A. Excited and hopeful                                  B. Nervous and uncomfortable

        C. Surprised but comfortable                              D. Pleased but embarrassed

68. In the eyes of Tess, Alec is ________.

        A. forceful and daring                                  B. unfriendly and talkative

     C. a gentle and reliable man                              D. older than she had expected

69. Why does Tess pay the visit to the d’Urbervilles？

        A. To see Alec himself.    

B. To see Alec’s mother.

        C. To confirm that they are of the same family.

        D. To make known their relationship and seek help.

Paris has the Eiffel Tower; New York has the Statue of Liberty; and Brussels, the Manneken Piss．

Think of the Belgian capital and, if anything, you think of the small peeing (撒尿) boy—a 60-meterhigh bronze figure standing on a block, supplying a constant stream of water to the basin under him．

Some might laugh．But for Jacques Stroobants, the statue is up there with the best of them．

“I’m proud of him．People come from all around the world to see him,” says 60-year-old Stroobants with a fatherly glance at the little boy．

As the most famous landmark of Brussels, Manneken Piss has a very special place in the heart of Belgians．

The original Manneken Piss dates back to 1388, but the statue tourists see today dates from 1619 when the city built a second one after the original was destroyed．

Many stories go round Manneken Piss．Nobody knows why he was made．One story is that he saved Brussels by putting out the flames of a deadly fire with his well-aimed piss．But the most believable story is that the boy, the son of a wealthy man, was kidnapped (绑架)．The father had a statue built in honor of the way his son was found—peeing against a tree．

Perhaps best-known for his naked beauty, the “peeing boy” has also been clothed in some of the finest clothes money can buy．

Stroobants has been changing his clothes for the last 29 years．On average, he has clothes on 300 days a year．And on special days, he pees beer．

A few of the ways he’s been dressed are：a football player, Mozart and an army general．Now, he has more than 600 pieces of clothes．

There is no strict charge for those wishing to provide clothes for the little boy．But certain conditions must be met．

“The clothes cannot include either advertising or political message,” said Stroobants, because they would cheapen the national treasure．

But Manneken Piss is still something local people can make money from—by selling all kinds of souvenirs．

72．Which of the following is NOT true about Manneken Piss?

A．It has a history of more than 600 years.                    

B．It stands in Brussels.

C．It is best known for the clothes he wears.                 

D．It is 60 meters high.

73．The Manneken Piss has a special place in the heart of Belgians because _______．

A．it’s good looking with water running constantly

B．it brings joys to people who see it

C．it helps people make money

D．it’s a symbol of the city

74．We can learn from the passage that ________．

A．for most of the year, the boy is naked

B．Stroobants is probably in charge of taking care of the statue

C．people can provide any clothes for Manneken Piss free of charge

D．people make money by advertising Manneken Piss

75．The local people can get money by selling _______．

A．objects that remind the tourists of a trip         

B．clothes that Manneken Piss has worn

C．anything that is related to Manneken Piss       

D．stone figures that resemble Manneken Piss
