26、、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。A A surprisingly high number of city citizens in China suffer from poor health and many die at an early age.Poor health with no sign of any identified (确定的)disease, a condition known in China as sub health, is on the rise. Sub health is marked by general weakness, low energy levels a
27、nd a poor immune system. A survey held in 16 cities with over 1 million population showed high proportions of urban Chinese have been suffering sub health problems. The numbers are particularly high in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, with 75.31, 73.49, and 73.41 per cent respectively of residents i
28、n poor health, the survey(调查) showed. The problem happens mostly among senior and middle-level managers, clerks and other white-collar workers with high education levels, said the website of the Red Cross Society of China. The sub health condition, found in most cases among groups of people with a h
29、igh educational level, will have bad effects on Chinas long-term development and progress if not dealt timely and properly, the website warned. A survey by the Chinese Academy of Sciences shows that the average life of Chinese intellectuals is 58 years, 10 years lower than the nations average. This
30、early death phenomenon may be increasing. Among Chinese people with high education in the 25-59 age group, the death rate for women is as high as 10.4 per cent. For men it is even higher: 16.5 per cent. A report published by the China Sub Health Academic Seminar said the countrys health is going thr
31、ough a transitional(过渡的) period and many long-term diseases have taken the place of infectious diseases such as SARS, cold as the main cause of death. Bad working habits, poor disease prevention knowledge, not enough governmental investment and lack of health education are the main reasons, said Yan
32、g Xiaoduo, a healthcare expert with a local health association, who said China should race against time seeking measures to solve the sub health problem. 56. What will be talked about next? A. More reasons for sub health. B. The way to solve the problem of sub health. C. Who suffer from sub health.
33、D. Why people with high education more likely to suffer sub health. 57. According to the text which of the followings is NOT true? A. Chinese people especially the city citizens are suffering from sub health problem. B. Sub health is famous for general weakness, low energy levels and a poor immune s
34、ystem. C. Now more and more people realize the importance to stop sub health. D. Sub health problem will do damage to our countrys development.58. What does the word “ urban” mean? A. country B. of cityC. populationD. residents59. Which of the followings result in sub health? 1. Bad working habits 2
35、. little knowledge about disease prevention 3. little money spent on the sub health 4. poor health educationA. 1, 2 B. 1, 2,3 C. 1, 2 , 4 D. 1,2 ,3 ,4BHow men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we have really known is that men, unlike an
36、imals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions, and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, and which could be written down. These sound
37、s, whether spoken or written in letters, are called words. The power of words, then, lies in their associations the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our
38、 past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases. Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal(具有感染力)powerfully to our minds and emotions(情感). This charming and telling use of wor
39、ds is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey(转达)his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they w
40、ill make our speech silly and vulgar(粗俗的).60According to the author of the passage, . Amen, as well as animals, invented certain sounds to express thoughtsBthe origin language is a difficult questionCwords did not have written form at firstDwords came from sounds61The power of words lies in the fact
41、 that .Ait can associate the things in the world with the ideas in our mindsBone word is connected with anotherCit can associate one person with anotherDit can recall to us the events of our past62In order not to make our speech silly and vulgar, we should .Ause words that can move men to tearsBchoo
42、se words with care and accuracyCbecome a master of wordsDuse words which sing like music63The best title for this passage would be .AThe meaning of wordsBThe nature of wordsCThe invention of wordsDThe power of wordsCSports is not only physically challenging, but it can also mentally challenging. Cri
43、ticism(批评)from coaches(trainers), parents, and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional, or psychological, and research has showed that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or qui
44、tting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other soci
45、al skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware(realize), at all times, that their feedback(反馈)to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parents and coaches criticisms to heart and find a flaw(缺陷) in themselves.Coaches and pare
46、nts should also be cautious(careful) that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In todays youth sport setting, young athletes may be worried more about who will
47、win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game, many parents and coaches focus on(pay more attention to) the outcome and find fault with youngsters performances. Positive reinforcement should be provided in spite of the outcome. Research shows that positive reinforcement motivate
48、s and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress(pressure), which can lead to burnout.64According to the passage sport is positive for young people in that . Ait can help them learn more about societyBit teaches them how to set realistic goals
49、for themselvesCit enables them to find flaws in themselvesDit can provide them with valuable experiences65Many coaches and parents are in the habit of criticizing young athletes .Awithout realizing criticism may destroy their self-confidenceBin order to make them remember lifes lessonsCbelieving tha
50、t criticism is beneficial for their early developmentDso as to put more pressure on them66According to the passage parents and coaches should .Ahelp children to win every gameBpay more attention to letting children enjoy sportsCenable children to understand the positive aspect of sportsDtrain childr
51、en to deal with stress67The authors purpose in writing the passage is .Ato persuade young children not to worry about criticismBto emphasize the importance of positive reinforcement to childrenCto discuss the skill of combing criticism with encouragementDto teach young athletes how to avoid burnoutD
52、When several different people look at the same person, it is not unusual for each of them to see different things; when you alone observe one behavior or one person at two different times, you may see different things. The following are but some of the factors that lead to these varying perceptions(
53、感知): Each persons perceptions of others are formed by his or her own cultural conditioning, education, and personal experience. Sometimes perceptions differ because of what we choose to observe and how we deal with what weve observed. It is not necessarily true that persons perception is based on ob
54、servations of a particular person. Your observations may be totally controlled by what others have told you about this person; or you may focus(关注) primarily on the situation or role relationship. Most people do not use the same yardstick(标准) to measure their parents, their friends, and strangers. S
55、ometimes we see only what we want to see, what may be obverse (对应面) to others because of our own needs, desires, or temporary (临时的) emotional states. This is a process known as selective perception. Selective perception is obviously more difficult when contradictory (矛盾的) information is particularly
56、 obvious, but it can be done. We can ignore the stimulus“Hes basically a good boy, so what I saw was not shoplifting.” We can reduce the importance of the contradictory information“All kids get into mischief (顽皮). Taking a book from the bookstore isnt such a big deal.” We can change the meaning of t
57、he contradictory information“It wasnt shoplifting because he was going to pay for it later.”68. The first factor given by the author that affects our perception is _. A. the abilities of ones auditory (听的) and visual sensorsB. cultural background and personal experience C. experiences one learns fro
58、m othersD. critical measures taken by other people69. While observing a particular person, _ A. one is likely to take all sides into considerationB. one pays more attention to his or her advantagesC. children often differ from grown ups in perception D. one tends to choose certain clues (提示) to look
59、 for 70. Observation of the same person by two people at the same time may differ because _. A. their yardsticks are not the sameB. either of them may be slow to catch information C. the time for observation is not long enoughD. each of them uses different language to express his or her impressions7
60、1. The worst thing in selective perception is that _. A. perceived information runs against your desireB. facts can be totally ignored and distorted (扭曲)C. importance of contradictory information can be overrated (估计过高)D. the same information may not be dealt with in the same wayEFriday, September 1
61、7Dangerous winds and flooding rains are moving through Alabama, Tennessee, and Georgia as Hurricane Ivan continues its path of destruction. Although the winds are diminishing as Ivan moves across land, the seasons third major hurricane is spawning deadly tornadoes throughout the South. At last 10 pe
62、ople have died in the Gulf Coast area due to tornadoes. Hurricane Ivan is also blamed for more than 60 deaths in Venezuela and the Caribbean. More than 2 million people evacuated the Gulf Coast region from Florida to New Orleans. Called the most intense storm to hit the area in 35 years, Ivan came a
