    PALO AITO, California—“Switching off the television may help prevent children from getting fatter—even if they do not change their diet or increase the amount they exercise,” US researchers said last week.

    A study of 192 third and fourth grades, generally aged eight and nine, found that children who cut the number of hours spent watching television gained nearly two pounds(0.91 kg) less over a one-year period than those who did not change their television diet.

    “The findings are important because they show that weight loss can only be the result of a reduction in television viewing and not any other activity,” said Thomas Robinson, a pediatrician(儿科专家) at Stanford University.

    “American children spend an average of more than four hours per day watching television and videos or playing games, and rates of childhood being very fat have doubled over the past 20 years,” Robinson said.

    In the study, presented this week to the Pediatric Academic Societies’ annual meeting in San Francisco, the researchers persuaded about 100 of the students to reduce their television viewing by one-quarter to one-third.

    Children watching fewer hours of television showed a significantly smaller increase in waist size and had less body fat than other students who continue their normal television viewing, even though neither group ate a special diet nor took part in any extra exercise.

    “One explanation for the weight loss could be the children unstuck to the television may simply have been moving around and burning off calories,” Robinson said.

    “Another reason might be due to eating fewer meals in front of the television. Some studies have suggested that eating in front of the TV encourages people to eat more,” Robinson added.

    The purpose of the first two paragraphs is ______.

    A. to report the time children spend watching TV

    B. to show that more TV time leads to getting fatter

    C. to tell us the best way to reduce weight

    D. to introduce the background of the research

    According to the passage, the time American children usually spend on watching TV ____.

    A. is more than four hours a day       B. is less than four hours a day

    C. doubled in the last twenty years      D. is more than on any other activities

    The time the 100 children spend on TV every day is about _______ in the study.

    A. a quarter of an hour  B. four hours         C. three hours        D. one hour

    Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage ?

    A. Weight increase owes to the result of a reduction in TV viewing.

    B. The percentage of children getting fatter has doubled in the last 20 years.

    C. Children usually eat less while watching TV.

    D. Children usually eat nothing while watching TV.

    The main idea of the passage would be ______.

    A. less TV time helps reduce children’s weight

    B. fewer meals is a must in reducing children’s weight

    C. the less you eat, the thinner you will be

    D. more exercise is of great benefit to reduce weight

    Mexico City is truly one of the most amazing cities in the world with a mixture of both the old and new world. From the moment your plane starts to land in this vast city, you know that your trip will be quite an adventure.

    Once in your taxi and the moment you leave the airport, you are amazed at the large amount of slow traffic. The volume of the traffic can be stressful to some.

    The "Paseo de la Reforma (改革大道)", running southwest across the city, is one of the major tourist and business areas in Mexico City with many high quality hotels only walking distance from great restaurants and other tourist attractions. The only problem you will have is trying to see all of these sites during your vacation time.

    One of the most popular attractions in this area is the National Museum of Anthropology along the northwest part of the street. There are thousands of artifacts on display showing the history of the area and numerous items found from the many Aztec sites in the area. Walking southwest from the museum, you will soon reach the Mexico City Zoo, which is a great place to spend an afternoon.

    Across the street from the museum is the Chapultepec Castle, once an important site in the Mexican-American war. It's also a good idea to take the train up the hill to where the castle is located as the hill is steep (陡峭的). It's important to keep in mind that Mexico City is over 7,000 feet above sea level and some feel it difficult to breathe when walking.

    You can take a taxi to the Coyoacan market during the evening on a weekend. It's a great place to get some cheap souvenirs to bring back home and to enjoy some traditional Mexican cuisine. However, you must be careful where you eat and that the meat is well cooked.

    The tourists in Mexico City may not be satisfied with______.

    A．the high speed of the traffic                      B．the heavy traffic of the city

    C．the polluted air in the city                                D．their safety in the city

    From the third paragraph, we can learn that______.

    A．the number of the city attractions can't meet the needs of the tourists

    B．it is convenient for tourists to visit the city from where they stay

    C．tourists have problems when visiting the sites in Mexico City

    D．tourists often have their three meals in the high quality hotels

    Which of the following shows the correct positions of the following places?

    P = Paseo de la Reforma            M = the National Museum of Anthropology

    C = the Chapultepec Castle        Z = the Mexico City Zoo

    Which of the following attractions may interest those who want to study the military (of the army) history of Mexico City?

    A．The National Museum of Anthropology.    B．The Coyoacan market.

    C．The Chapultepec Castle.                           D．The Aztec sites.

    (C)
    Most American students said goodbye to expensive fruits these days. In school canteens across the country, cheaper fruits like apples and oranges heave replaced them. “People are afraid to spend now” said Linda Morrow, who owns a shoe and handbag store. “They basically don’t know what the future will bring and keep waiting till after the Presidential Election.”
    The current financial crisis(金融危机)， during which several of the country’s biggest banks have been forced to sell or close, has made lots of Americans unwilling to buy expensive goods.
    Samira Martino, a restaurant owner in Miami, found everyone is ordering water instead of juice and more people are sharing meals. In more than two dozen interviews with the Associated Press across the country last month, American talked about their concerns, from worries about small businesses to doubts about simply making ends meet.
    The crisis began last year. Experts blame it on U.S. banks lending money too easily. A lot of people and companies, who borrowed money, have found themselves unable to pay it back. This left the banks, as well as the people who put their money in the banks, without money. Since the banks borrowed money between themselves and even across borders, the whole world’s financial markets were involved.
    This month the U.S. government agreed on a $ 700 billion plan to try to save the financial market. But a turn-around(转机) is not sure. President George W. Bush has warned it will take some time for the full effects of the plan to take hold in an economy that has had a world of trouble.
    Last week top finance officials from 20 major economies promised to work together to find a way out of the money trouble. They believe the current crisis is the worst since the Great Depression in 1929. And they all think international cooperation is the key to solve it.

    53. What is the cause of the current financial crisis of America?
    A. The Presidential Election
    B. U.S. banks lending money too easily.

    In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child’s acquisition（学会）of each new skill — the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is common that parents hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, and a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm（热情） for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.

    Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters; others are severe over time of coming home at night or punctuality（准时）for meals. In general, the controls imposed（强加的）represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community（社区）as much as the child’s own happiness.

    As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality.  Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and do not practice what they preach（说教）, their children may grow confused, and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.

    A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents’ principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.

    1.Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills _____.

    A．should be avoided

    B．is universal among parents

    C．sets up dangerous states of worry in the child

    D．will make him lose interest in learning new things

    2. When children are learning new skills, parents should _____.

    A．achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their own

    B．not expect too much of them

    C．encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they read

    D．create as many learning opportunities as possible

    3.The second paragraph mainly tells us that _____.

    A．parental restrictions vary, and are not always enforced for the benefit of the children alone

    B．parental controls satisfy only the needs of the parents and the values of the community

    C．parents should be strict with their children

    D．parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the situation

    4.The underlined word “precept” （in Paragraph 3） probably means “_____”.

    A．idea

    B．punishment

    C．instruction

    D．behaviour

    5.In moral matters, parents should _____.

    A．satisfy their children’s needs

    B．be aware of the marked difference between adults and children

    C．forbid things which have no foundation in morality

    D．observe（遵守，奉行） the rules themselves

    We would probably all be amazed if we watched a videotape of ourselves performing basically unconscious acts as we go about the business of the day. These unconscious acts consist of all the little personal habits that we don’t even think about, but definitely should. These are some of the things that present an image of who we are to others, and if we are careless in performing them, this image may well be other than we would like it to be.
    Parents who insist that their children practice good manners and habits at home are doing them a great service, for these habits then become lifelong and the natural way they do things. It proves true that their unconscious actions will reflect a well-mannered person.
    People who, for example, eat with both arms on the table at home will likely do so when out. Those who are lazy and slow in private will certainly be so in public. Children who are permitted to be disrespectful to their parents will follow suit with other adults, and will, most likely, become adults who are disrespectful of others. This is an area where the saying “practice makes perfect” may be applied.
    There is an article about the actress, Audrey Hepburn, known for her beautiful carriage and posture. According to her biographer, her grandmother tied her neck to the back of her chair, at table, so that she would not drop down suddenly over her food, but rather would learn to put only small amounts of food on her spoon or fork and bring them to her mouth. This is a rather extreme “at home” method for the development of erect (直立的) posture, but it does illustrate the effectiveness of practicing good habits so that, when in public, they are instinctive.

    1. 1.

      Which of the following expresses the main idea of the passage?

      1. A.
        Parents should be responsible for their children’s good habits.
      2. B.
        The actress is well known for her beautiful posture.
      3. C.
        We should always be aware of our manners.
      4. D.
        Without good manners, one can never be perfect.
    2. 2.

      Those who eat with both arms on the table at home ______.

      1. A.
        will probably change the habit when eating out with their relatives
      2. B.
        will probably have the same habit when they have meals in the restaurant
      3. C.
        will feel embarrassed when having meals with so many strangers in public
      4. D.
        will always put their arms on the table no matter where they eat
    3. 3.

      The meaning of “practice makes perfect” in the third paragraph is ______.

      1. A.
        the more practice one has, the better job he will do
      2. B.
        the more perfect one is, the more practice he needs
      3. C.
        if one has enough practice, he will become perfect
      4. D.
        perfect makes a person practice more
    4. 4.

      Which of the following are NOT true?

      1. A.
        If we are not careful about our unconscious acts, the images of ourselves presented to others will be quite undesirable.
      2. B.
        The good habits formed in one’s childhood will benefit him throughout his life.
      3. C.
        If parents do not care about the disrespectful attitude adopted by their children towards themselves, their children might be disrespectful to others.
      4. D.
        It is unlikely that a well-mannered person will not embarrass himself in public.
