Hargraves LookoutBVaccines are substances that help the body fight off diseases and illnesses. In the past they have helped save millions of lives around the world.Diseases are often caused by b
27、acteria or viruses that attack the human body. A vaccine is a dead or very weak form of such a virus. When you get a vaccination from your doctor the body it gets used to these weaker viruses and can produce antibodies which stay active for a long time. When the real virus or bacteria attack, the bo
28、dy becomes immune and can defend itself.People can get their vaccinations in many forms.Very often the vaccine is injected into your body, but vaccines are also taken by mouth or are breathed in.Although many vaccines protect you throughout your life, some provide immunity for only a certain time. V
29、accines against the flu must be administered every year, because the flu virus can change or may appear in a different form.Most people already have a certain amount of immunity in their bodies. It is passed to them from their mother. However, these antibodies do not protect a baby for a long time,
30、so that many vaccines are given to infants in their first yearsSome illnesses only occur in certain areas. If you travel, for example, to tropical regions, you should get vaccines to protect you from yellow fever, malaria or hepatitis.Vaccines have virtually put an end to many diseases. Smallpox, fo
31、r example, was once one of the worlds most serious diseases, which killed millions every year. By the end of the 1970s smallpox had disappeared completely because nearly everyone was vaccinated.The first vaccines were created towards the end of the 18th century. An English scientist, Edward Jenner,
32、carried out experiments with cowpox, a milder form of smallpox. He found out that people who got cowpox rarely got ill from smallpox.

37、CBooks were the primary source of intellectual entertainment just a hundreds years ago, but it is a disappointment that people read less often in these days of widespread technological reliance. However, I believe that books are an irreplaceable part of our lives, and the role that good books play i
38、n the personal growth and development of a particular person throughout ones life is a remarkable one. Books expand our knowledge and conception of the world around us. One may argue that films and TV documentaries do that too, but I believe that books are a much better alternative, since they allow
39、 each reader to experience the same story using ones own imagination. The experience achieved through reading is richer and more personal, since the same description and the same word choice will result in as many different interpretations as there are readers. We are all unique, and books allow us
40、to experience whatever is written in the light of our own personal values, through our ideas and our imagination.In addition books enrich our vocabulary, introduce us to new concepts and offer a wider choice of words to us. Watching certain TV programs and documentary films can also widen ones vocab
41、ulary, but hardly as effectively as books do, since reading operates with both more sophisticated visual and audio(if reading aloud) receptor. Moreover, our imagination reproduces mental picture of what we are reading about, so a new word automatically links to a certain image and a particular emoti
42、on that it relates to.And also, books are a fantastic source of inspiration. Unlike fine art, architecture or travelling, books help us create our own mental illustration for what we read on paper. In a way, books make us all artists and creators of our own mental cartoons, movies or illustration co
43、llections. Every image we create ourselves is automatically given a certain emotion, whether a simple or a more complicated one. Every mental image that a written word projects is full of life and energy with emotions. This is what makes books powerful and memorable. Books are an endless source of i
44、nspiration and motivation to become a better person.Im certain that creating a system of symbols and eventually an alphabet, words, and books was the greatest series of inventions of humankind. Good books do not have an experience date and will be priceless for any generation. They will continue spa
45、rking new ideas, inspiring new deeds and enriching the lives of every generation to come. I am positive that books will eventually regain their popularity with todays youth, since books are those roots to which people will go back, in search of the motivation, inspiration and aspiration, to find the
46、 true meaning and value of life.61. The passage conveys to us the idea that _. A. books are as important to us as the media B. good books can influence us significantly C. what to read should be a crucial problem D. its good to make reading our daily routine62. It can be inferred from the passage th
47、at _. A. people watch movies simply for pleasure B. a good story gives all of you one feeling C. the process of reading is that of thinking D. every book should have its unique style63. It is implied in the passage that _. A. television programs provide the viewers with a limited vocabulary B. visua
48、l and audio receptors arent used together when we watch TV C. the context of a story makes it easy for us to understand new words D. feelings are one of the factors that help us to understand new words64. According to the passage, _. A. people do not read as many books as they used to B. books contr
49、ibute a lot to our becoming real artists C. any books has its own value and will never die out D. broad knowledge makes books widely influentialD Living to Tell the Tale is the first book in a planned trilogy(三部曲) that will make up the memoirs(回忆录)of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the famous Colombian writ
50、er who initially won public praise in the mid-1960s for his novel One Hundred Years of Solitude. At that time, Garcia Marquez, a journalist and writer had never sold more than 700 copies of a book. While driving his family through Mexico, he had a real brainstorm. He remembered his grandmothers stor
51、ytelling technique-to recall fantastic, improbable events as if they had actually happened-literally. He turned the car around and drove back home to begin One Hundred Years of Solitude in a new way. To my mind it is one of the 20th centurys best works of fiction, and won Garcia Marquez the 1982 Nob
52、el Prize in Literature. Living to Tell the Tale relates the early years of the authors life, although some of the books most important incidents happened earlier than Garcia Marquezs birth. The impact of these experiences, the people and their stories were to have a powerful effect on him, as a man
53、and as a writer. This is the tale of his parents love , marriage and the birth of their children. It tells of his early years which were spent in Aracataca, in the home of his grandparents. His grandfather, Colonel Nicolas Ricardo Marquez Mejia, was a soldier of the Thousand Days War. He was suppose
54、dly a storyteller of great reputation. He told his young grandson that there was no greater burden than to have killed a man. Later Garcia Marquez would put these words into the mouths of his characters. His grandmother, Tranquilina Iguaran Cotes, also had a major influence on Garcias life. No matte
55、r how fantastic her statements were, she always delivered them as if they were the absolute truth. This was the style which was to affect Garcia Marquezs fiction, sometimes called “magical realism”. The woman filled the house with stories of ghosts and future signs, all of which were ignored by her
56、husband. He had little interest in “womens beliefs”. In 1940, when he was 13, Garcia was awarded a scholarship to a secondary school for gifted students. It was during his school years, 1940s and 50s, that he was first drawn to poetry, a national obsession in Colombia. He and his friends, fellow stu
57、dents, would read aloud and discuss poetry late into the night. Too poor to buy his own books, Gabriel would read novels borrowed from friends. While still a boy, he decided he wanted to be a writer. The people who surrounded him in his childhood later became instrumental when developing the charact
58、ers and the storylines for his novels. Love In the Time of Cholera was inspired by the romance between his mother and father. And his grandfather, who had twelve children (some say 16), became Colonel Aureliano Buendia in One Hundred Years of Solitude. Garcia Marquez began Living to Tell the Tale, h
59、owever, not with his real birth in 1928, but with his “birth as a writer”, at age 22. he and his mother took a trip from Baranquilla, where he was working as a reporter, to his childhood home in Aracataca. They were going to sell the old house. Vivid memories were stirred up here, memories which ele
60、ctrified his imagination. This trip was to change the course of his writing life. Living to Tell the Tale is not a conventional literary memoir. It is a magical combination of memoir and national history written in the authors remarkable voice. It is his personal mythology. In spite of poverty, Garc
61、ia Marquez acknowledged his early years were filled with joy, a sense of well-being and encouragement from many people.65. The storytelling technique of Marquezs grandmother is mentioned to show that _. A. Marquezs novel were mostly inspired by her stories B. she had a major influence on Marquezs wr

It was inspired by a trip to Marquezs hometown. D. It was written by Marquez at the age of 22.69. The passage is most p

66、ous situations in our life. In fact everyone needs courage to do something well. Courage may make you confident of your success so it is considered by many to be one of the most important human virtues.Learning how to gain courage doesnt mean not being afraid. It means learning to do things despite
67、your fear. Fear comes from the bodys natural response to the brains fight or flight response. Fearfulness is a learned behavior, based in our brain chemistry, but strengthened by the world around us that has trained us to be fearful. Learning to work through fear and step beyond it is about retraini
68、ng your mind.Avoiding fears actually makes you feel more fearful. Theirs is a certain mindset in Western culture that views emotions as weakness and seeks to suppress them. But suppressing negative emotions only heightens the fear of the negative emotions itself, strengthening them the more they are
69、 avoided.Exposing yourself to things that you fear (while being sure to be smart about it) can help the brain become less sensitive to the fear and make it easier for you to face.The longer your brain has to come up with excuses for not having courage, the more time you will have to panic about assu
