26、ing this, congratulations: you are a survivor. According to statistics, you are more than twice as likely to die of skin cancer than a woman, and nine times more likely to die of AIDS. Assuming you make it to the end of your natural term, about 78 years for men in Australia, you will die on average
27、five years before a woman. There are many reasons for thistypically, men take more risks than women and are more likely to drink and smoke but perhaps more importantly, men dont go to the doctor. “Men arent seeing doctors as often as they should,” says Dr. Gullotta, “This is particularly so for the
28、over-40s, when diseases tend to strike.”Gullotta says a healthy man should visit the doctor every year or two. For those over 45, it should be at least once a year. Two months ago Gullotta saw a 50-year-old man who had delayed doing anything about his smokers cough for a year. “When I finally saw hi
29、m it had already spread and he has since died from lung cancer,” he says, “Earlier detection and treatment may not have cured him, but it would have prolonged（延长）his life. ”According to a recent survey, 95% of women aged between 15 and early 40s see a doctor once a year, compared to 70% of men in th
30、e same age group. “A lot of men think they are invincible（不可战胜的）” Gullotta says. “They only come in when a friend drops dead on the golf course and they think, Geez, if it could happen to him, . . . ”Then there is the ostrich（鸵鸟）approach, “Some men are scared of what might be there and would rather
31、not know,” says Dr. Ross Cartmill. “Most men get their cars serviced more regularly than they service their bodies,” Cartmill says. He believes most diseases that commonly affect men could be addressed by preventive check-ups. Regular check-ups for men would inevitably place strain on the public pur
32、se, Cartmill says. “But prevention is cheaper in the long run than having to treat the diseases. Besides, the ultimate cost is far greater: its called premature death. ”56. What does the author state is the most important reason men die five years earlier on average than women?A. Men drink and smoke
33、 much more than women. B. Men dont seek medical care as often as women. C. Men arent as cautious as women in face of danger. D. Men are more likely to suffer from fatal diseases. 57. Which of the following best completes the sentence Geez, if it could happen to him, _（Para. 8）?A. it could happen to
34、me, too. B. I should avoid playing golf. C. I should consider myself lucky. D. it would be a big misfortune. 58. What does Dr. Ross Cartmill mean by “the ostrich approach”（Para. 9）?A. A casual attitude towards ones health conditions. B. A new therapy for certain psychological problems. C. Refusal to
35、 get medical treatment for fear of the pain involved. D. Unwillingness to find out about ones disease because of fear. 59. What does Cartmill say about regular check-ups for men?A. They may increase public expenses. B. They will save money in the long run. C. They may cause psychological strains on
36、men. D. They will enable men to live as long as women. BHere are some of the worlds most impressive subways. The Tokyo Metro and Toei LinesFeatures: The Tokyo Metro and Toei lines that compose Tokyos massive（庞大的）subway system carry almost 8 million people each day, making it the busiest system in th
37、e world. The system is famous for its oshiyaliterally, “pusher”who shove passengers into crowded subway cars so the doors can close. And you think your commute is hell. The Moscow MetroFeatures: The Moscow Metro has some of the most beautiful stations in the world. The best of them were built during
38、 the Stalinist era and feature chandeliers（枝形吊灯）, marble moldings and elaborate murals（精美的壁画）. With more than 7 million riders a day, keeping all that marble clean has got to be a burden. The Hong Kong MTRFeatures: The Hong Kong MTR has the distinction of being one of the few subway systems in the w
39、orld that actually turns a profit. Its privately owned and uses real estate development along its tracks to increase income and ridership. It also introduced “Octopus cards” that allow people to not only pay their fares electronically, but buy stuff at convenience stores, supermarkets, restaurants a
40、nd even parking meters. Its estimated that 95% of all adults in Hong Kong own an Octopus card. Shanghai MetroFeatures: Shanghai is the third city in China to build a metro system, and it has become the countrys largest in the 12 years since it opened. Shanghai Metro has 142 miles of track and plans
41、to add another 180 miles within five years. By that point, it would be three times larger than Chicago “L”. The system carries about 2. 18 million people a day. The London MetroFeatures: Londoners call their subway the Underground, even though 55 percent of it lies above ground. No matter. When youv
42、e got the oldest mass-transit system in the world, you can call it anything you like. Trains started in 1863 and theyve been running ever since. Some 3 million people ride each day, every one of them remembering to “Mind the gap”. 60. Which one can provide the riders some wonderful decorations at th
43、e stations?A. The Tokyo Metro and Toei Lines. B. The Moscow Metro. C. The London Metro. D. The Hong Kong MTR. 61. _ is done with the purpose of making money. A. The Tokyo Metro and Toei Lines B. The Moscow MetroC. The London Metro D. The Hong Kong MTR62. We can learn from the passage that Shanghai M
44、etro _. A. carries the most people each day B. is the worlds largestC. may be much larger than the Chicago “L” in the futureD. is the busiest in the worldCBelieve it or not, optical illusion（错觉）can cut highway crashes. Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by near
45、ly 75 % using a simple optical illusion. Bent stripes, called chevrons（人字形）, painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down. Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D. C. is planning to
46、 repeat Japans success. Starting next year, the Foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashesExcessive speed plays a major role in as much as one-fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according t
47、o the Foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the Foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards（危险）are the greatestcurves, exit slopes, traffic circles and bridges. Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can at first cut the average spee
48、d of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bar. Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a
49、longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents. 63. The passage mainly discusses _. A. a new way of highway speed control B. a new pattern for painting highwaysC. a new approach to training drivers D. a new type of optical illusion64. On roads painted with chevrons, dr
50、ivers tend to feel_. A. they should avoid speed-related hazards. B. they are driving in the wrong laneC. they should slow down their speed. D. they are approaching the speed limit65. The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety plans to _. A. try out the Japanese method of chevr
51、ons and other patterns of stripes in certain areas. B. change the road signs across the countryC. replace straight, horizontal bars with chevronsD. repeat the Japanese road construction66. The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that the former _. A. can keep drivers awake B. can
52、 cut road accidents in halfC. will have a longer effect on drivers D. will look more attractiveDMy fathers family name being Pirrip, and my Christian name Philip, my infant tongue could make of both names nothing longer or more explicit than Pip. So, I called myself Pip, and came to be called Pip. A
53、s I never saw my father or my mother, and never saw any likeness of either of them（for their days were long before the days of photographs）, my first imagination regarding what they were like, were unreasonably from their tombstones. The shape of the letters on my fathers, gave me a strange idea tha
54、t he was a square, strong, dark man, with curly black hair. From the character and turn of the words, Also Georgiana Wife of the Above, I drew a childish conclusion that my mother was freckled（长雀斑的）and sickly. Ours was the wet country, down by the river, within, as the river wound, twenty miles of t
55、he sea. My first most vivid and broad impression of the identity of things, seems to me to have been gained on an unforgettable cold afternoon towards evening. At such a time I found out for certain, that this place overgrown with nettles（荨麻）was the churchyard（墓地）; and that Philip Pirrip, and also G
56、eorgiana wife of the above, were dead and buried; and that Alexander, Bartholomew, Abraham, Tobias, and Roger, infant children of the aforesaid, were also dead and buried. Suddenly I began to feel lonely and sad and afraid. I began to cry. Hold your noise! cried a terrible voice, as a man started up
57、 from among the graves at the side of the church porch. Keep still, you little devil, or Ill cut your throat!A fearful man, all in grey, with a great iron on his leg. A man with no hat, and with broken shoes, and with an old rag tied round his head. A man who shivered, and glared and growled; and wh
58、ose teeth chattered in his head seized me by the chin. O! Dont cut my throat, sir, I begged in terror. Pray dont do it, sir. Tell us your name! said the man. Quick!Pip, sir. Once more, said the man, staring at me. Give it mouth!Pip. Pip, sir. Show us where you live, said the man. Point out the place
59、!I pointed to where our village lay, among the alder-trees, a mile or more from the church. The man, after looking at me for a moment, turned me upside down, and emptied my pockets. There was nothing in them but a piece of bread. When the church came to itself for he was so sudden and strong that he
60、 made it go head over heels before me, and I saw the steeple（尖塔）under my feet when the church came to itself, I say, I was seated on a high tombstone, trembling, while he ate the bread hungrily. You young dog, said the man, licking his lips, what fat cheeks you have got. I believe they were fat, tho
61、ugh I was at that time undersized for my years, and not strong. Darn me if I couldnt eat them, said the man, with a threatening shake of his head. I carefully expressed my hope that he wouldnt, and held tighter to the tombstone on which he had put me; partly, to keep myself upon it; partly, to keep
62、myself from crying. Now look here! said the man. Wheres your father?There, sir! said I. He started, made a short run, and stopped and looked over his shoulder. There, sir! I explained. Thats his grave. Oh! said he, coming back. And mothers there too, sir. And my five little brothers. 67. Who do you
63、think Alexander is?A. Pips friend. B. Pips father. C. One of Pips little brothers. D. The fearful man. 68. It can be learned from the passage that _. A. Pips mother was freckled and ill. B. Pip imagined what his parents looked like through their photographs. C. Pips parents and little brothers were
64、killed by the man. D. Pip was probably shorter or thinner than most children of his age. 69. What is the fearful man most likely to be?A. An escaped prisoner. B. A minister of the church. C. A tower watcher. D. Pips parents enemy. 70. Which of the following is right according to the passage?A. It wa
65、s the words on the tombstones that made me know of my parents appearance. B. The man was so hungry that he wanted to cut his throat and eat his fat cheeks. C. Pips parents were buried together in the churchyard 20 miles from the village. D. He called himself Pip just because he was too young to pron

A sneeze is a response that involves the muscles of the face, chest and throat. Therefore its so fo
67、rceful that it can cause the particles to fly out of the nose at 100 miles per hour. When we sneeze, a positive pressure is created on the heart, which can make the heart skip a beat. Almost anything can irritate（刺激）the inside of your nose, the most common being dust particles. When we catch a cold,
68、 the virus present in the nose causes much irritation. Some people suffer from allergies（过敏）and sneeze when exposed to certain particles like flower powder. Uncontrollable sudden sneezes cannot be stopped. However, if you can feel the sneeze coming up, it may help if you try to focus on a physical c
69、ondition rather than the sneeze. For example, you can pinch（捏）the tip of your nose. Using the tip of your tongue, touch the roof of your mouth lightly. People across the world associate kinds of beliefs in culture to sneezes. For example, in India, a sneeze that takes place before the start of any w
70、ork is an indication of a bad interruption. Thus, people generally take a break or drink a glass of water before starting the work again. In almost all the countries where English is spoken, the common response to a sneeze is “God Bless You”. The most common explanations about its origin focus on th
71、e idea of preventing the soul from the body or an effort to prevent death. The longest sneezing attack is present in the Guinness World Book of Records. A 12-year-old girl called Donna Griffiths from England holds the record. Her sneezing attack lasted for 977 days from January 1981 to September 198

Of course there are more opportunities in cities so most of them can find jobs to earn a lot of money and live a happy life. Their children can go to school and study to
78、gether with those in cities. Therefore, they are sure that their children will have a brighter future with the help of good education. But at the same time, they have a lot of challengers. For example, too many people come to cities looking for jobs, but here are not enough for them. These people th
79、en remain unemployed, and can not afford to buy houses in cities. They have to pay more for education and medical treatment. And finally many of them end up living in poverty. What can be done to help them? I think the government can do a lot to improve their conditions. More houses should be built
80、and sold to them cheaply. Or they may rent houses instead of buying. Their childrens tuitions should also be reduced. Besides, they should enjoy equal medical insurance. I hope the farmers will be able to overcome their difficulties and live happily in cities. 学生习作三篇，仅作参考A. More and more farmers are
81、 moving to live in cities, so cities are becoming larger and larger. The farmers have chances in cities as well as difficulties. According to the farmers, there are many more opportunities for them to seek their fortune. Besides, their children can be well educated in cities, which can be helpful to
82、 their brighter future. However, the farmers cant avoid being faced with many problems. Due to the rapidly increasing population of the city, more and more people have lost their jobs. In addition, they are also burdened with the high cost of the rent, the education, medical service as well as other
83、 expenses. With these problems, many of them are now living in poverty. What can be done to help them？In my opinion, the government can help solve this by organizing the farmers to attend training courses, which may help them find jobs more easily. And the government can also develop the economy at
84、a faster rate to create more job opportunities for them. When it comes to the farmers, I think they should weigh the advantages and disadvantages before moving into cities. I hope the farmers will be able to overcome their difficulties and live happily in cities. B）More and more farmers are moving t
85、o live in cities, so cities are becoming larger and larger. The farmers have chances in cities as well as difficulties. Many of them believe that as long as they move into modern cities, they can open the doors of opportunities not only for themselves but for their children. They dream of making mor
86、e money, receiving better health care and thus leading a higher standard of life. On top of this, their children can receive a better education, which will widen their scope of knowledge and help them fulfil their dreams of being college students. However, they are also faced with various challenges
87、. Today, many cities, which are already densely populated, still have a fast increasing population. As a result, many people are laid off, and they cant afford the rent of their houses or even the expenses of health care and education. In my opinion, farmers should be encouraged to grow more crops o
88、f high quality, and by selling them at a reasonable price they can enjoy a better life. Moreover, the government and the public should pay more attention to improving their living standards. I hope the farmers will be able to overcome their difficulties and live happily in cities. C）More and more fa
89、rmers are moving to live in cities, so cities are becoming larger and larger. The farmers have chances in cities as well as difficulties. The farmers think there are more chances in cities so they can find well-paid jobs more easily to earn more money. Besides, living conditions in cities are much b
90、etter than those in the countryside. Their children are able to receive a better education, which means a better future for them. However, difficulties come along with chances. For instance, with the sharp increase of the city population, many people find it hard to find a good job. In addition, ren
91、ting houses, education and medical care have cost them so much money that many even cant make both ends meet. As a result, many farmers who come to cities with the hope of living a better life end up in poverty. What can be done to help them?The local government should train these farmers so that it
92、 will be easy for them to find jobs. Moreover, their children should be given more care and enjoy equality in education. But above all, farmers should learn to depend on themselves. They should work hard and be honest. I hope the farmers will be able to overcome their difficulties and live happily in cities. - 17 - / 17
