And as you start fueling your body with nutrients and noticing how much better you feel,theres a good chance youll lose weight,too. Heres how your new healthy eating habits are helping you drop pounds.Drinking waterFinal
12、ly you decided to change those Diet Cokes for water? Its a good decision: drinking more water helps keep your skin and other cells healthy and functioning properly,and drinking enough water keeps you from feeling lethargic (无精打采的) and tired. Your new water habit is great for your waistline as well:
13、drinking water helps prevent overeating.Eat more fruits and vegetablesYour new weekends todo list that includes a trip to the farmers market to stock (贮备) up on vegetables for the week isnt just helping you eat more diseasefighting nutrients; loading up on produce is a smart weightloss strategy. Fru
14、its and vegetables are lowcal,highfiber (低卡高纤维) food to stay satisfied and feel full longer.Cooking at homeHealthy eating means cooking at home more since youre able to see what exactly is going into your food and control the amount of salt,sugar and fat in it.Not only does this ensure youre eating
15、the nutrients you need,but youll also save major calories from giving up the large buttery portions (比例) found in many restaurants.

DOn a certain website.BGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but
18、 have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play, catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought ab
19、out the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, extra learning trials
20、(尝试) increase the length of time we will remember it.In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhoo
21、d tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception (例外) to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.The law of overlea
22、rning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A
23、little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for ones future development.24. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.D. Stories for children

26、s send gases such as carbon dioxide, or CO2, into the atmosphere, the air around the earth. In the past, this wasnt a problem because trees absorbed the CO2. But now people in many countries are cutting down billions of trees all around the world. At the same time, factories are sending more CO2 int
27、o the atmosphere. Its difficult to believe, but factories put billions of tons of CO2 into the atmosphere every year. One ton is over 2000 pounds, so it is a lot of pollution. There is too much CO2 and there arent enough trees, so the world is getting warmer. In other words, we have a greenhouse eff
28、ect. This is terrible for the environment.What can we do about this? First, we can stop using so much coal and oil. We can learn to use different kinds of energy: the sun, wind, steam from volcanoes, and heat from inside the earth. Second, instead of cutting down trees, we should plant more trees. O
29、ne tree can absorb ten pounds of carbon dioxide every year.The trees are good for the earths atmosphere and for Guatemala (拉丁美洲国家危地马拉).In small towns and villages in Guatemala, most women are poor and have hard lives. Trees help them in three ways. First, the Connecticut factories pay them to plant
30、the trees. Their pay is com, not money. The com is good for their children. Second, these women know a lot about their environment. They know where to plant when to plant, and what kinds of trees to plant. For example,they plant many fruit trees. The fruit gives them vitamins for their families s di
31、ets. Other trees are good for firewood. In a few years, the women wont spend so much time looking for firewood. Third, all these trees are good for the soil. Now rain cant wash the soil down from the mountains so easily.This plan isnt enough to stop the greenhouse effect. However, its a start. The w
32、oman of Guatemala are helping themselves and helping their environment.28. Which of the following statement is NOT true?A. Factories send more CO2 into the atmosphere.B. Trees cant absorb the same CO2 as they did in the past.C. Billions of trees are being cut down throughout the world.D. The greenho
33、use effect is extremely bad for the environment.29. Whats the main idea of the second paragraph?A. The reasons why we should plant more trees.B. Ways we can adopt to take heat from volcanoes.C. Measures to be taken to forbid the use of coal and oil.D. Things we can do to stop or reduce the greenhous
34、e effect.30. How does planting trees help improve womens lives in Guatemala?A. By preventing the greenhouse effect.B. By developing their skills of planting trees.C. By enabling them to earn more money to support their family.D. By making them get com and fruit to feed their family in return.31. Wha
35、ts the authors attitude towards the plan of planting trees in Guatemala?A. Critical.C. Positive.B. Neutral.D. Doubtful.DGermans have a word “wanderlust” which translated into English would be “the desire to wander”. Nowadays the chance to travel is endless. Thanks to cheap air tickets, travelling ab
36、road is very easy and sometimes its even cheaper to fly out of the country than to travel within your own. So, yes, travelling is cheap but there have to be other reasons to travel and youre right. There are plenty of reasons! I have always had this feeling of wanderlust. It started from me wanting
37、to explore my local woods at the back of my garden as a young girl and as I have grown, so has my sense of adventure. And I found my local woods being replaced with the Brazil wetland, Pantanal, where I went last summer in search of jaguars, snakes and crocodiles. The thing with travelling is that i
38、ts always different. Even if you went to the same country, to the same town and stayed in exactly the same hotel, it would be a completely different experience. The people you meet will be different, and they will tell you their own travelling stories: stories of holiday romances, holiday worries an
39、d stories that seem so outrageous that you can hardly believe them until something similar happens to you. Or maybe the difference is you? Maybe you have changed since last time you were there? And thats the thing with travellingit changes you. When you travel you are forced to experience a new cult
40、ure. Whether its eating a guinea pig, or staying with a family where neither of you speak a common language and you have to communicate through hand actions and smiles, the experience gives me itchy feet to do it all again. And although wanderlust is a German word, the English idiom “to have itchy f
41、eet” has a similar idea. Someone who has itchy feet needs to leave or travel. This desire to explore is found not only in language but in us.32. According to Paragraph 2, what is the most important part of travelling? A. Having different experiences. B. Hearing many travelling stories. C. Experienci
42、ng holiday romances. D. Taking more adventures.33. The underlined word “outrageous” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_” A. interesting B. surprising C. moving D. disappointing34. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Staying with a family without common languages. B. Communica
43、ting through hand actions and smiles. C. Eating a guinea pig with a family. D. Experiencing a different culture.35. The writer wrote the passage in order to _. A. give various reasons for travelling B. encourage people to travel abroad C. explain the German word “wanderlust” D. share the writers tra

The subject line should tell the recipi
45、ent (接收者) immediately what the email is about. _36_ Remember that your wording(用词) also has to be brief._37_ It is best to be more formal rather than informal,so when writing to someone you have never met or written to before,a “Dear Jane Smith” is appropriate. When addressing someone whom you are a
46、 little familiar with,a “Dr Smith” is okay until they tell you to address them by their first name,in which case a simple “Jane” will be okay._38_ Within the first two sentences of your email,your recipient should know exactly why you are writing to him. Sometimes an introduction may have to precede
47、 (先于) the sentence that states why you are writing,and sometimes it has to follow.Use suitable language. You may be used to using informal language in certain social settings. _39_ Even when dealing with colleagues or friends you are familiar with,do not immediately fall back on informal language.Ke
48、ep it simple. People may get dozens and even hundreds of emails a day. _40_ In that way, they can save much of their time when reading emails.AUse proper greetings.BExpress your ideas clearly.CState your purpose at the beginning.DBe as specific as possible when writing the subject.EHowever,an email
49、may not be the best place to use such language.FIt is important to check the language to avoid spelling and grammar mistakes.GIt is always easier for them to read if you keep your email as short and brief as possible.第三部分 语言运用(满分70分)第一节 完形填空(共15小题,每小题1分,满分15分)“Just sign here, sir,” the deliveryman (
