When you’re lying on the white sands of the Mexican Riviera, the stresses(压力) of the world seem a million miles away. Hey, stop! This is no vacation-you have to finish something!

Here lies the problem for travel writer and tood critic(评论家),Edie Jarolim “I always loved traveling and always liked to eat, but it never occurred to me that I could make money doing both of those things,” Jarolim said. Now you can read her travel advice everywhere in Arts and Antiques, in Brides, or in one of her there books, The Complate Idiot’s Travel Guide to Mexican Beach Resarts.

……writing began some eight years ago. After getting a PhD in English in Canada, she took a

Test Frommer’s travel guides, passed it, and got the job. After working at Frommer’s, Jarolim worked

for a while at Rough Guides in London, then Fodor’s, where she fell so in love with a description of the Southwest of the U.S. that she moved there.

Now as a travel writer, she spends one-third of her year on the road. The rest of the time is spent completing her tasks and writing reviews of restaurants at home in Tucson, Arigona.

As adventurous as the job sounds, the hard part is fact-checking all the information. Sure, it’s great to write about a tourist attraction, but you’d better get the local(当地的)museum hours correct or you could really ruin someone’s vacation.

As A/H1N1 continues to spread, experts from the Centers for Disease Control to the World Health Organization to neighborhood doctors are calling on the people to practice smart flu prevention techniques. Here are some tips to keep body improved and immune(免疫)system ready to fight infection.

Wash Your Hands

And wash them often, in hot soapy water, and for the amount of time it takes you to sing “Happy Birthday” twice.

Get Enough Sleep

This means slightly different things to different people, but try to get 8 hours of good rest each night to keep your immune system in top flu-fighting shape.

Keep Hydrated

Drink enough water each day to clear poisonous matter from your system and keep up good moisture(湿度)production in your body.

Eat Immune-Improving Foods

Keeping you body strong and ready to fight infection is important in flu prevention. Fatty foods can slow your metabolism(新陈代谢), make you feel inactive, and weaken your immune system. So stick with whole grains, colorful vegetables, and vitamin-rich fruits.

Avoid Alcohol

Alcohol is likely to decrease your resistance to infections and further damages the immune system. So avoid alcoholic drinks to keep your immune system strong.                         

Proper exercise-for example walking for 30-40 minutes 3-4 times a week-supports the immune system by increasing circulation, oxygenating the body, removing poisonous material through sweat, and reducing tension and stress. So get moving!

Avoid Contact with Sick People

If you’re coughing or sneezing, cover your mouth(and then wash your hands),and if you have to be around someone who is sick, try to stay a few feet away from them and avoid physical contact.

Know When to Get Help

A/H1N1 can look like regular flu, so don’t feel like you necessarily are infected if you’re exhibiting flu-like symptoms(症状). But do go to your doctor if you live in an area where there are recorded cases, or if your symptoms are very serious.

44.To fight A/H1N1 infection, it’s helpful for us to_______ .

       A.sing “Happy Birthday” while washing hands

       B.eat more fatty foods and colorful fruits

       C.keep away from alcoholic drinks

       D.refuse communication with patients

45.A suitable title for paragraph 7 might be _______.

       A.Support the Immune System     B.Keep Physically Active

       C.Get Enough Sweat             D.Walk to Reduce Stress

46.The passage seems to suggest that we should_______.

       A.get enough sleep after eating fatty foods

       B.wash hands with soap after a cough or sneeze

       C.drink more water after drinking alcohol

       D.see a doctor immediately if you have flu-like symptoms

47.What can help clear poisonous matter from the body?

       A.Washing your hands.       B.Eating fatty foods.

       C.Getting enough sleep.      D.Drinking enough water.

A while ago my family and I went sledding(滑雪橇)and as I watched my children climbing up the slope I started thinking.

Many people are   1   that most of today’s social problems are because of the “me” generation. Youngsters are just out for themselves and pay no   2   to others or their needs. Indeed, a common belief is that today’s youngsters won’t do anything   3  there is something in it for them.

Yet, while sledding, I saw a   4   side. I watched my two oldest children (then five and four) take my youngest (then two years old) by the hand to help her up the slippery slope   5   they went up. They would have been   6  without her, but not once did they try to sneak by her without helping. And when the sled  7   my two daughters was aimed toward the edge, it was my five year old son who ran to them to   8   them falling and hurting themselves.

These children sometimes  9  among themselves and, on occasion, behave horribly. But I can   10   them shopping and know that they won’t ask for anything, I can talk to them about tsunami or hurricane victims and know that they will offer to   11   some of their own money to the cause, and I can ask them to play with those children   12   on the sideline (作为旁观者)and know that they will befriend them.

Perhaps, therefore, the “me” generation is to blame   13   much of society’s problems – not the youngsters who want everything,   14   the adults who have taught them to selfishly   15   only of themselves.

Most adults have been   16   at some time or another, sadly, many   17   that disappointment down to their children. Then the children learn to put themselves first!

Most young children want to help. We can   18  that feeling by teaching the lesson my children learned while sledding: Life is a slippery slope with   19   of bumps (撞伤) and bruises (擦伤), but we can all make it to the   20  if we remember to help those who need it.

C

As Joe and Michael were heading towards the Drivers License place, Michael, who was behind the wheel, froze as he heard the voice on the radio saying that a man had been murdered by a bullet that had came from the sky. He immediately drove off and went to a secret place. Later on that day, after thinking that the shot they had fired possibly wasn’t the shot that killed Mr Ward, they headed back to the Drivers License place where Michael failed the driver’s test because he could not think straight. For the next two months, Michael and Joe hid the secret that the bullet had actually shot Mr Ward.

During this time, Jenna Ward started to realize life without her father. While Jenna mourned the death of her father, a strange boy started to appear at the front steps of the church across the street from her house. After many nights of watching this boy, she finally recognized that it was Michael who was sitting on the steps every night.

After months of finding out where the shot came, the police were able to narrow the search area down to within a four-block area. Among these four blocks were Michael’s house and Joe’s house. When the police arrived at Michael’s house, his dad mentioned the gun that Michael had received from his grandpa at his birthday party. Michael, trying to be sly, told the cops that Joe had borrowed the gun. Upon this, Joe said that the gun had been stolen out of his car along with his CD player. After the police were gone, Michael met Joe at a special spot and told Joe the gun was under the wood pile in his backyard.

One day, when Michael thought the police would not come back, he came home to find the police searching his backyard with metal detectors. When the Sergeant(警官) went into the woods behind the house, he came out with a bullet that Joe and he had shot off on his birthday. The bullet matched the one that they had recovered from Mr. Ward, but without the gun, the police could not place Michael as the killer.

With the pressure mounting, Michael finally broke down and realized he had to give up. On a Saturday morning, he went to Jenna’s house to confess to her and her mother and then turned himself in.

51. It can be inferred from the story that Michael and Joe _____.

   A. shot and killed Mr Ward by accident

   C. fired a bullet that killed Ward from the sky

   A. to find out whether Mr Ward was dead

   B. to find a secret place to hide themselves

   C. to take the driver’s licence test

53. Why did Michael sit on the steps of the church every night?

   A. He was monitoring Jenna’s whereabouts (行踪)

   B. He was probably feeling upset and guilty.

   C. He wanted to make sure that Ward was dead.

   D. He wanted to show sympathy for the Ward’s.

54. From the passage we can learn that _____.

   A. Michael lent the gun to Joe at his birthday party

   B. the gun together with a CD player was stolen from Joe’s car

   C. Michael hid the gun under the wood pile in his backyard
