16.Why are people interested in eating raw foods or whole foods?One reason is that eating these types of food reduces the risk of acid accumulation in your body.
Raw and whole foods are usually digested more efficiently than cooked and refined foods.When we cook foods,we destroy the natural enzymes(酶)that are part of the food in its raw form.These enzymes were intended by nature to help us digest the food.When we consume food without these natural enzymes,our bodies either digest the food improperly or allow too many nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream.In both instances,the result is obesity.When too many nutrients are absorbed at once,the body grows fat.Improperly digested food moves slowly through the digestive tract,where it becomes increasingly acidic (酸性的).To protect its vital organs from this acidic waste,the body changes the acid into fat and stores it safely away from the organs.
Processed foods contain chemical elements,which might confuse the appetite mechanism that tells us when we've had enough to eat; as a result,people often overeat.Processed foods also upset the digestive cycle.The body will either identify these foods as allergens and then store them safely away from the organs as fat,or the remains of undigested food will become acidic and enter the bloodstream as acid waste,which will stick to the blood vessel walls and block the passage of vital oxygen and nutrients heading for the body's cells.The body's metabolism(新陈代谢) becomes inactive,and the result is weight gain and obesity.
The accumulation of acid in the digestive tract makes digestion increasingly inefficient.When that happens,even healthy foods can become acidic and the food allergies will become more common.
To stop this vicious(恶性的) circle in its tracks,people need to consume food and supplements that will neutralize (使…中和)the acid already accumulated in body.Eating the right types of raw and whole foods can help.It's also important to restore your enzyme balance.You need to identify and avoid the foods that cause acid accumulation and consume the foods that increase enzyme production.If you truly want to change and help your body heal itself,you need to take an active approach.-Raw and whole foods can be your choice.

31.What is the main purpose of this passage?A
A.To advocate eating more raw and whole foods.
B.To tell the differences between raw and processed foods.

11.A new study links heavy air pollution from coal burning to shorter lives in northern China.Researchers estimate that the half-billion people alive there in the 1990s will live an average of 5 years less than their southern counterparts because they breathed dirtier air.
China itself made the comparison possible:for decades,a now-discontinued government policy provided free coal for heating,but only in the colder north.Researchers found significant differences in both particulate pollution of the air and life expectancy in the two regions.
While previous studies have found that pollution affects human health,"the deeper and
ultimately more important question is the impact on life expectancy,"said one of the researchers,Michael Greenstone,a professor of environmental economics at Massachusetts Institute of一Technology.
"This study provides a unique setting to answer the life expectancy question because the
(heating) policy dramatically changes pollution concentrations(含量),Greenstone said in an email."Further,due to the low rates of migration in China in this period,we can know people's exposure over long time periods,"he said.
The policy gave free coal for fuel boilers to heat homes and offices to cities north of the Huai Riv饥which divides China into north and south.It was in effect for much of the 1950-198,0 period of central planning,and,though discontinued after 1980,it has left a legacy(遗留Pl in the north of heavy coal burning,which releases particulate pollutants into the air that can harm human health.Researchers found no other government policies that treated China's north differently from the south.
The researchers collected data for 90cities,from 1981to 2000,on the annual daily average
concentration of total suspended(悬浮的)particulates.In China,those are considered to be particulates that are 100micrometers or less in diameter,sent out from sources including power stations,construction sites and vehicles.Among them,PM2.5is of especially great health concern because it can go deep into the lungs.
The researchers estimated the impact on life expectancies using death data from 1991-2000.They found that in the north,the concentration of particulates was 184micrograms per cubic meter一or 55percent higher than in the south,and life expectancies were 5.5years lower on average across all age ranges.

62.The main idea of this passage is thatA.
A.research in China finds air pollution shortened life expectancy
B.the government provided free coal for heating in North China
C.coal burning causes bad air quality across China
D.a new study finds different particulates in South China
63.According to Greenstone,Cgreatly contributed to the high pollution concentrations in North China.
A.power stations 
B.construction sites
C.the free heating policy 
D.gases from vehicles
64.It is implied in the passage thatB•
A.coal is no longer used for heating in North China
B.air quality was comparatively better in South China
C.southerners burned coals for heating in the 1980s
D.people preferred to live in South China after 1980
65.The underlined word"particulates"most probably meansC.
A.dirty clouds
B.particular smoke
C.harmful dust

6.Were you the first or the last child in your family?Or were you a middle or an only child?Some people think (61)itmatters where you were born in your family.But there are different ideas about  what birth order means.Some people say that oldest children,(62)whoare smart and strong-willed,are very likely(63)to succeed(succeed).The reason(64)forthis is simple.Parents have a lot of time for their first child and give him or her a lot of attention.An only child will succeed for(65)thesame reason.
What happens to the(66)otherchildren in the family?Middle children don't get so much attention,so they don't feel that important.If a family has many children,the middle one sometimes gets lost in the crowd.The youngest child,(67)however,often gets special treatment.Often this child grows up to be funny.But a recent study saw things quite(68)differently(difference).The study found that first children believed in family rules.They didn't take many chances in(69)theirlives.They usually(70)followed(follow) orders.Rules didn't mean as much to later children in the family.They took chances and they often did better in life.

14.Why is it so difficult to fall asleep when you are overtired?There is no one answer that applies to every individual.But many people fail to note the difference between fatigue,physical tiredness and sleepiness,the inability to stay awake.It's possible to feel"tired"physically and still be unable to fall asleep,because while your body may be exhausted,you don't feel sleepy.To fall asleep,you need enough time to relax,even if you feel fatigued.It's not so easy to simply"turn off".According to Carl E.Hunt,director of the National Center on Sleep Disorders Research in Bethesda,Maryland,most people do not allow themselves relaxed.
Lack of sleep complicates matters even more.Experts say adults need at least 7 to 8 hours of sleep a night to function properly.When you get less sleep than that on consecutive (连续) nights,you begin to be burdened by"sleep debt".As sleep debt increases (and functionality decreases),your body experiences a stress response and begins to release adrenaline (肾上腺素).Now a bad cycle has been created:You experience the feeling of being more and more tired,but your body is increasingly stimulated."Power sleeping"for more hours on weekends is only a temporary solution."There is no substitute for getting a good night's sleep on a regular basis,"says Hunt.
Most of us,however,don't get the sleep we need.According to the 2002 National Sleep Foundation,Americans sleep an average of 6.9 hours per night during the week,and 58 percent of adults experience sleeplessness a few nights a week or more.

33.The writer intends to tell usD.
A.Americans don't get enough sleep
B.what benefits we can get from enough sleep   
C.lack of sleep has a bad effect on our body  
D.why it's difficult for overtired people to fall asleep  
34.Which of the following is NOT caused by lack of sleep?C
A.Power sleeping.                        
B.Sleep debt.
C.Lack of adrenaline.                    
D.Function badly.
35.From the passage we can draw a conclusion that lack of sleepD.
A.is so common that it isn't worth paying attention to
B.doesn't matter for it can be solved by"Power sleeping
C.can make it easy to fall asleep when one is overtired
D.may make it difficult to fall asleep when one is overtired.
