    People who are outdoors in cold weather should avoid actions like suddenly lifting a heavy basket full of snow. Even walking through heavy, wet snow can strain a person’s heart.
    Many people aren’t conditioned to the physical stress of outdoor activities and don’t know the dangers of being outdoors in cold weather. Those who like winter sports can suffer accidental hypothermia if they don’t make certain preparations.
    Hypothermia means the body temperature has fallen below normal. It occurs when your body can’t produce enough energy to keep the internal (内部的) body temperature warm enough. It can kill you. Heart failure causes most deaths in hypothermia.
    Children, the elderly and those with heart disease are at special risk. As people age, their ability to keep a normal internal body temperature often decreases. Elderly people can suffer hypothermia without knowing they’re in danger because they can’t notice the cold conditions as quickly as the young.
    Besides cold temperatures, high winds, snow and rain can also steal body heat. Wind is especially dangerous because it removes the layer of heated air from around your body. At 30 degrees Fahrenheit in a 20-mile-per-hour wind, the cooling effect is equal to calm air at four degrees. Similarly dampness (湿气) causes the body to lose heat faster than it would at the same temperature in drier conditions.
    To keep warm, wear more clothes. This traps air between layers. Also, wear a hat or head scarf. Much of your body’s heat can be lost through your head. Keep your hands and feet warm, too, as they tend to lose heat rapidly.
    Don’t drink alcohol before going outdoors or when outside. Alcohol makes you feel warm at first because blood vessels in the skin expand. But heat is then drawn away from the body’s important organs.
    1. The underlined word “strain” in Paragraph 1 means ________.
    A. injure     B. warm      C. control    D. burn
    2. What is implied in the passage about hypothermia?
    A.
    		It means the body temperature falls rapidly.
    B.
    		Most heart attacks are caused by it.
    C.
    		It is not as scary as people think.
    D.
    		It can threaten a person’s life.
    3. Based on the passage, one of the reasons why the elderly are at special risk of suffering from hypothermia is that _______.
    A.
    		they like exercising outside in cold mornings
    B.
    		they can’t notice cold conditions if they are not told
    C.
    		their body temperature is generally lower than young people’s
    D.
    		their ability to keep a normal internal body temperature is not so good
    4.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
    A.
    		What causes the body to lose heat faster.
    B.
    		The advantages of drier conditions.
    C.
    		What else can steal body heat.
    D.
    		Dangers of high winds.
    5. Which of the following is NOT a result of drinking alcohol before going outdoors?
    A.
    		Feeling warm at first
    B.
    		The body’s heat is taken away
    C.
    		Blood vessels in the skin expand
    D.
    		The risk of hypothermia is reduced

    After years of study, I have known there are only two types of people in this world: those who get to the airport early and those who arrive when the plane is about to take off.
    If there were any justice（公正）in this world, early-airport people would be rewarded for doing the right thing. And late-airport people would be punished. But early-airport people get ulcers（溃疡）, heart attacks and bite their fingernails to the bone. Late-airport people almost don’t realize they are flying.
    A guy of that kind once said, “Don’t hurry. If you miss your flight, it’s because God doesn’t want you to go.” This is clearly a guy who is never going to get an ulcer.
    Early-airport people suffer another “name”. They are called exactly what they are -wimps（窝囊废）. I know. I was an early-airport person for years. “My baggage will get on the plane first,” I told myself. Indeed it would, which made it the last baggage they took off the plane after landing.
    Another strange thing: No matter how early I showed up, I was always told that someone had called two or three years ahead of me and asked for the best seat. I thought it was a trick. I thought there was someone in America who called every airline every day and said: “Is that wimp Simon flying somewhere today? If he is , give me his seat.”
    After a lifetime arguing with my wife over whether I really have to pack 24 hours in advance and set the alarm clock four hours ahead, I have learned another fact about early-airport people and late –airport people:
    They always marry each other.
    小题1:We can learn from the passage that     .
    A．late-airport persons are often nervous
    B．early-airport persons are always at ease during the flight
    C．early-airport persons get their baggage first after the landing
    D．late-airport persons always take things easy
    小题2: Paragraph 5 mainly wants to tell us that      .
    A．someone always plays tricks on the writer
    B．the airlines usually fool passengers
    C．early-airport persons always can’t get good seats
    D．the service of airlines is very bad
    小题3:This passage is written in order to     .
    A．give readers tips about taking a plane
    B．offer suggestions about having a good plane trip
    C．express the writer’s anxiety about taking a plane
    D．show people’s different attitudes toward catching planes
    小题4: It could be inferred that the writer’s wife is     .
    A．an early-airport womanB．a late-airport woman
    C．a hot-tempered womanD．a sensitive woman

    It was shortly before midnight, and Dr Patricia was getting ready for bed. The phone rang on the end of the line was a woman about to break a promise.
    The woman was her mother’s neighbor. Flora Harris had made the neighbor swear she wouldn’t tell her daughter she’d had a heart attack and was in the hospital, for fear her daughter would worry. The neighbor wisely decided to disobey orders.
    Harris desperately wanted to get to the hospital immediately, but she couldn’t. She lives in Washington, D. C, and her mother lives in California.
    For the past year a half, Harris has gone to Los Angeles every other month to take care of her mother. Flora Harris takes care of her husband, James, who’s 91 and has Alzheimer’s disease. They live in their own home, and a caregiver comes to help them a few hours a day.
    Harris is one of many Americans facing the heartache of how to take care of aging parents from afar. She’s often worried, not to mention exrtemely busy with a demanding job, two teenage daughters and the frequent trips to California.
    In some ways, Harris is lucky. She has the resources to make the trips to Los Angeles. Plus, Harris is a doctor who treats the elderly.
    “But it’s still tough,” she says. “I can foresee what the next few years are going to look like, and it’s not a pretty picture. My father’s going to need diapers (尿布). There will come a time when he won’t recognize me and he’s easily excited. I worry he’s going to be violent and hurt my mother.”
    So what do you do when you live a continent away from your aging, sick parents? There are no magic answers. You can hire someone to help, but you can’t oursource it completely.

    B．She was not supposed to call Harris at midnight.

    D．She told Harris about her mother’s illness.

    B．Her parents cannot take of themselves at all.
    C．She cannot do a demanding job.

    I don’t really care how many claws the animal in a comic book (漫画书) has. I’m not overly concerned whether the bird is colored green or grey. In fact I don’t think comic book “collector” really applies to me at all. I’m probably more of a comic book “appreciator”. My interest has always been in what can be accomplished with the medium of “visual story - telling”. In the respect, comic books are the best thing going. And there are some great comics out there.
    I’m not sure exactly where this interest of mine came from. I do know that as a child, comic books allowed me to improve my reading – skills. The Mighty Thor made me develop an interest in Norse legends; Challengers of the Unknown got me interested in science fiction. The combination of words and pictures was a perfect springboard (起点) for my childhood imagination.
    So just how does one learn to appreciate comic book art? There is a classic example. Writer Scott Macloud was philosophical (达观的) about what makes a comic book stand out in his best – selling book Understanding Comics. The book, first published in 1994, has been translated into 13 languages and is practically useful for students studying graphic illustration (图示说明).
    On the Internet there are some cool comic book sites to be found. More than a few are mainly about superheroes and the like. But there are some choice sites that I would describe as “literary (文学的),” in that you can find some great resources that discuss the comic book as an art form. Among them there is a great article and interview at www.rcharvey.com discussing the influence of several artists and writers in the field.
    Check it out. Spend two dollars on a comic book and read it with your children. You may find yourself enjoying what you see and read. You may even find yourself wanting more.
    And wanting to read more is a good thing!
    53．According to Para. 1 the author is concerned about          .
    A．the color of the characters in a comic book
    B．how many comic books he has collected
    C．what he can learn from a visual story
    D．whether a story is true to life
    54．What do we know about Scott Macloud’s best – selling book?
    A．There are many classic examples if comic books in it.
    B．It is helpful 1 for students studying science fiction.
    C．It suggests what good comic books are like.
    D．It is mainly intended for parents.
    55．In the passage, the author encourages people to         .
    A．follow the example of superheroes from comic books
    B．join in the discussion at www.rcharvey.com
    C．consider comic books to be literary.
    D．buy and read more comic books
    56．What is the best title for the passage?
    A．Children’s favorite books
    B．Well – known comic books
    C．Comic books – cooler than you think
    D．How to become a good comic book writer

    I never got along well with Dad. But when he was dying, I set off for Nebraska to be with him and my family. I stopped for the night at a hotel with a pool, hoping a swim would relax me.
    The pool area was empty as I walked into the still water. A man in a bathing suit appeared. He sat on the edge of the pool with his legs moving up and down in the water. He had dark hair and deep brown eyes and smiled. ‘Where are you going?’ he asked. When I told him something about my father, he asked how we got along. I tried to change the subject, but then for some reason, I told him everything.
    Finally the man said, ‘Even with all the trouble, remember, your father still loves you.’ All at once, warm and clear childhood memories came flooding back: Dad running alongside my wobbling (摇摆的) bicycle, the proud hug he gave me at my high school graduation, his laugh when I caught him off guard with a tickle(挠痒). ‘Yes, I know he does love me,’ I heard myself say. And for the first time these years I believed it. The man left, leaving me alone with my comforting thoughts.
    Back in my room, as I went to bed, I decided it was time to forgive（原谅） my father. Then I wished he’d forgiven me too. The phone bell woke me up at 3 a.m. My sister’s voice sent a shock (寒战) through me: Dad had just died. I had wanted to see him and make peace. But as my sadness grew, I remembered that the man by the pool had already brought Dad and me together.
    64. From the passage we learn that the author __________.
    A. didn’t know his father was seriously ill        B. always thought highly of his father
    C. lived in Nebraska far away from his family       D. was going to see his father
    65. When the author was in the swimming pool, __________.
    A. many other people were there, too
    B. he talked a lot with the man by the pool
    C. he greeted the man by the pool first
    D. the man by the pool told him everything about his family
    66. What made the author change his original（原始的）idea about his father?
    A. That he was made to think of the fact that his father loved him.
    B. That the man by the pool mentioned(提及) his interesting childhood.
    C. That he remembered his father had taught him to ride a bike.
    D. That he knew his father would leave him forever.
    67. In the last paragraph, the author was sad that he __________.
    A. hadn’t accepted the kind stranger’s advice
    B. had no chance to make peace with his father
    C. hadn’t respected his father when he was young
