12、ts.If you are fat and want to lose weight,keep junk food out of your house.If you are a heavy smoker with coffee,turn to tea and keep away from friends who like smoking.Be patient.Bad habits develop over years,so you probably wont be able to get rid of them quickly.In fact,people often give up sever

14、When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived on a farm and in the winter, especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that city li
15、fe has its problems, too.One big disadvantage is money it costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma (哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. A
16、lthough I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment (娱乐活动). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and
17、 greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens (十几岁) or twenties. However, as
18、you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.24What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?AStaying on the farm. BMoving to the countryside. CLeaving home for the city. DRunning
19、away from the school. 25What are the disadvantages of living in the city the writer listed in the passage?AMoney; house; pollution. BPollution; house; traveling.CTraveling; house; money.

21、ed in the passage. CFor a generation now, school reform has meant what students must be taught and carried out by standardized tests.Heres a thought experiment. Suppose that next year almost every student passed the tests. What would the reaction be from people? Would they shake their heads in respe
22、ct and say, Damn, those teachers must be good! ?Of course not. Such remarkable success would be used as evidence that the tests were too easy and it needs to raise standards. High standards really means standards that all students will never be able to meet. My little thought experiment uncovers a t
23、ruth that we have been taught to respond with doubt whenever all members of any group are successful. In America, success doesnt count unless it is got by only a few.Consider widespread complaints about grade inflation (膨胀) in higher education. Many people dont even bother to stress that grades have
24、 risen over time. They simply point to how many students get As right now. The goal, in other words, isnt to do well but to defeat other people who are also trying to do well. Grades in testing should be used to announce whos beating whom. A schools final task, apparently, is not to help everyone le
25、arn but to prepare the game so that there will always be losers.This makes no sense in any situation. Perhaps, for example, we can defend rating states or nations based on the quality of their air, health care or schools, but ranking(排名)them is foolish. School testing ranking doesnt lead to improvem
26、ents in performance but tends to hold us back from doing our best. It makes productive teamwork less likely and leads all concerned to focus not on meaningful improvements but on trying to beat everyone else.Most of all, it encourages the false belief that excellence is a zero-sum game. It would be
27、more reasonable to rescue the spirit of the concept: Everyone may not succeed, but at least in theory all of us could.28.What did the writers thought experiment prove?A.Good teachers represent higher test scores. B.American tests are usually too easy.C.Excellence is regarded as a rare thing. D.Stude

They may also skip homework to play video games or spend too much time playing games and do poorly in school. “While the medical community currently does not recognize
32、 video game addiction as mental disorder, hopefully this study will be one of many that allow us to have an educated conversation on the positive and negative effects of video games,” said Dr Douglas Gentile, an assistant professor of psychology at ISU. Dr David Walsh, the president of the National
33、Institute on Media and the Family which tries to reduce the harm of media on the health and development of children and families, said the findings are a wake-up call.“This study gives everyone a better idea of the problem,” he explained. The researchers, who studied 1,178 American children and teen
34、agers, aged 8 to 18, found some displayed at least 6 of 11 symptoms of pathological (病态的) gambling as stated by the American Psychiatric Association. Addicted gamers played video games 24 hours a week, twice as much as casual gamers. Some addicted gamers even steal to support their habit, according
35、to the findings that will be published in the journal Psychological Science. While video games can be fun and entertaining, some kids are getting trouble. “I continue to hear from families who are concerned about their kids gaming habits. Not only do we need to focus on identifying the problem, but

63、的主谓关系,故用现在分词作状语。64考查代词。句意:在信中,金汉邈介绍了他自己和义乌,并且希望女王能够欣赏中国传统文化。本句中主语和宾语表示同一人,故要用反身代词。65考查同位语从句。根据句子分析,空处后面是同位语从句来解释说明his hope,且从句中不缺少成分,因此用that引导同位语从句。66考查形容词。根据语境可知,此处表示“中国传统文化”,用形容词traditional来修饰名词词组Chinese culture。67考查副词。句意:两个月后,(他们) 收到了一封来自白金汉宫的回信。根据语境可知,寄出信之后两个月收到来信,later“之后”。68考查动词时态和语态。分析句子结构可知,
