To decide not to be part of a groupD. To decide on BOne day I was driving home with a woman. She rolled down the window, fifty feet a
11、way from the driveway and spit her gum （口香糖）out of the window. “Couldnt you just wait five seconds and put your gum where it belongs?” I asked, annoyed. She was not the only one who was gum-lazy. Consider the following. Every time I brush chewed gum under my desk, I shake with fright. At Folsom Midd
12、le School, whenever I had to walk by the gum wall next to the girls locker room, I felt totally disgusted. When I was young, I walked outside during my dance show in my ballet shoes, always stepping right on a big and juicy piece of bubble gum. I was extremely upset.The worst part of all these incid
13、ents is that a trash can is located near. But some people are too lazy to walk towards it. If you cant be a responsible gum chewer, dont chew at all. Thats all Im going to say. Take Singapore as a good example. The chewing gum ban in Singapore was placed. It bans the import and sale of chewing gum i
14、n Singapore, whether for the purpose of trade or personal chewing. However, the ban has been partly lifted with some types of gum, such as medical gum, allowable. This comes with the warning that it is sold only by a druggist, who has to take down the names of buyers. Obviously, the Singapore govern
15、ment gets angry at gum stuck in keyholes of mailboxes and on elevator buttons. Not only is it annoying, but chewing gum can actually do harm to the health. Most gum contains aspartame （阿斯巴甜）, a chemical sweetener（增甜剂）that the US government is now deciding whether or not it is a deadly chemical. If i
16、t is, it may cause cancer. Other studies suggest that aspartame may cause neurological（神经系统的）disorders. Therefore, aspartame is not allowed to use in the US.So just say no to chewing gum.24. What did the author think of the womans behavior?A. It was strange. B. It was unacceptable. C. It was dangero
17、us. D. It was violent.25 According to Paragraph 2, the author _.A. stepped on a piece of gum while dancing B. cleaned gum under her desk sometimesC. was troubled by chewed gumD. often found chewed gum in her locker 26. What do we know about aspartame? A. It is proved to be a harmless chemical. B. It
18、 is the cause of many kinds of cancer. C. It is being refused by the US government. D. It is the main ingredient of chewing gum. 27. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To advise people against chewing gum. B. To criticize people who are lazy. C. To persuade people to buy medical gum. D. To mak
19、e comments on the ban in Singapore.C March 21 has been declared World Sleep Day, a time to recognize and celebrate the value of sleep. Many sleep experts hope it will be a wake-up call. According to a poll (民意调查）by the National Sleep Foundation, nearly 4 in 5 Americans dont get as much sleep as they
20、 should during the workweek. On average, adults are thought to need at least eight hours of sleep a night, although some can manage with less and some wont do well without more. But the survey found that, on workdays, only 21% of Americans actually get a full eight hours of sleep, and another 21% ge
21、t less than six.To many of us, the thought of spending more time sleeping is, well, a big yawn. On the other hand, the thought of being smarter, thinner, healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal. And those are just a few of the advantages that can be ours if we consistently get enough sleep,
22、 researchers say. Also on the plus side: Were likely to have better skin, better memories, better judgment, and, oh, yes, longer lives.“When you lose even one hour of sleep for any reason, it influences your performance the next day,” says Dr. Alon Avidan, director of the UCLA Sleep Disorders Center
23、.A study published last year found the same to be true even of children. When kids aged 8 to 12 slept for just one hour less for four nights, they didnt function as well during the day.But sleeping has an image problem. “We see napping or sleeping as lazy,” says Jennifer Vriend, a clinical psycholog
24、ist in Ottawa, Canada, and the leading author of the study with children. “We put so much emphasis on diet, nutrition and exercise. Sleep is in the back seat.” In fact, she adds, no matter how much we work out, no matter how well we eat, we cant be in top physical shape unless we also get plenty of
25、sleep.28. The underlined part in Paragraph 1 means _.A. To wake up the sleepers B. To draw peoples attentionC. To serve as a morning call D. To declare the special day29.From Paragraph 3 we can infer that _A. Being healthier is one of the advantages for us B. Sleeping has nothing to do with ones exp
26、ectations C. Spending more time on sleeping is a waste of time D. Enough sleep is the guarantee of the appealing things30.What Jennifer Vriend said in the last paragraph implies that _.A. Sleeping is an image problem B. People care little about sleepingC. Lazy people tend to sleep long D. Sleeping i
27、s only part of our life31.What is the purpose of the passage?A. To talk about peoples sleeping problems.B. To provide an investigation result of sleeping.C. To arouse the awareness of enough sleeping.D. To stress the function of sleeping at night.DThe chimp didnt feel well. She fell over, ignoring t
28、he other wild chimps.Finally, the sick chimp crawled over to a bush, picked some leaves and swallowed them. By the next afternoon, the chimp was as good as new!Biologists watching the chimp were surprised. Somehow, the plant had cured the chimp! Did the chimp know the plant would make her feel bette
29、r? Or was it just a lucky accident?Many scientists dont think it has anything to do with luck. Theyre discovering that some animals seem to use plants to cure themselves. And these animals are leading scientists to new plants that could cure humans!Dr. Richard Wrangham, an anthropologist at Harvard
30、University, agrees that animals may know something we dont know about forest plants. Wrangham got to know chimps and their diets while studying them for three years in Tanzania. “You must know a lot about an animals feeding habits to know what it doesnt consider food,” Wrangham explains. Every morni
31、ng, he saw that most chimps ate fruit near their nests. Later on, they ate on leaves. When he noticed chimps eating the leaves of a plant they usually ignored, Wrangham thought something interesting was going on-especially when he saw that theyd sometimes walk for 20 minutes to find the plant. Anoth
32、er strange thing that caught his eye was how they ate the bitter leaves. “They swallowed the leaves whole,” explains Wrangham, noting that chimps usually chew their food well. “They seemed to rub（摩擦）the leaves around the roofs of their mouths. They closed their eyes, wrinkled their noses and swallow
33、ed slowly. ”Wrangham wondered what could be so good about something tasting so bad. He had a chemist analyze the leaves. He discovered that the leaves contain a red oil that kills different viruses（病毒）. Later tests showed that the oil might even fight cancer and the AIDS virus! Why dont the chimps c
34、hew the leaves? “Rubbing the leaves between the tongue and the inside of the mouth might allow the chemicals to enter the bloodstream directly,” he suggests, “instead of going to the stomach, where they might get destroyed by acids. The chimps seem to know what theyre doing.” 32. We can learn from t
35、he passage that _. A. chimps cure themselves by chewing plants B. chemicals in plants help cure animals C. scientists live with chimps to study their diets D. Dr. Wrangham knows a lot about forest plants33. How can Dr. Wrangham tell which plants are medicine for chimps? A. By talking with the biolog
36、ists. B. By studying the chimps feeding habits. C. By analyzing the chimps favorite food. D. By comparing other scientists discoveries.34. The author wrote the passage to _. A. provide a solution B. test a theory C. present a finding D. describe an experiment35. What does the passage mainly talk abo
37、ut? A. Animal doctors. B. Forest plants. C. Chimps diets. D. A cure for cancer.第二节 （共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Fear may top the list of the many unpleasant emotions we can experience. 36 .
