    Whether it’s a carol（圣诞颂歌）service or an evening of karaoke in the pub, many people will enjoy a good old singsong this Christmas. Singing aloud will not just lift the spirits---it’s good for your physical health as well. Filling the lungs（肺）with air, increasing the heart rate and getting blood pumping round the body faster can all help our physical health.
    For the past few years Heart Research UK has been Funding a Christmas campaign aimed at getting people singing, simply for the benefit it can bring. The organizer of the campaign says singing is a safe, simple and social activity that everyone can enjoy. “Singing is linked to long life, stress reduction, and general health protection. It also brings a great amount of happiness. It is impossible to sing well with a long face because it affects your pitch（音高）.”
    Professor Graham Welch, who leads the International Music Education Research Centre at the University of London, has spent more than 30 years studying the effects of singing. He says that singing is a form of exercise. It means we’re also having a strong aerobic activity（有氧运动）when we’re singing, which results in increasing the feeling of pleasure while decreasing that of stress.
    “And communal（共同的）singing—like in a singing group, a church service or even a singsong in the pub—helps improve our sense of self-respect. It increases our sense of satisfaction with ourselves, a greater sense of feeling included. ”
    Helen Astrid, a singing teacher, also sees the great effects that singing brings. “It lifts us up on a spiritual level, it helps our self-respect, and it’s great for all ages from small kids to grannies—you can have a good sing and let your hair down.”
    But she warns people not to have too many beers or glasses of wine, though a glass may help them gather courage before taking to the stage during the holidays.
    小题1:Heart Research UK holds a campaign to __________.
    A．encourage people to sing for God at Christmas
    B．study the effects of singing on people
    C．get people to sing and improve their health
    D．bring happiness to people during holidays
    小题2: What are the benefits of singing according to Graham Welch?
    a. Singers’ living longer.
    b. Singers’ general health protection.
    c. Singers’ feeling happier.
    d. Singers’ stress reduced.
    e. Singer’s self-respect improved.
    A．a, b, cB．b, c, dC．c, d, eD．a, b, e
    小题3: The underlined part “let your hair down” probably means __________.
    A．feel at easeB．protect yourself
    C．dress casuallyD．cover your nervousness
    小题4: What can we infer from the passage?
    A．Singing at Christmas is good for health.
    B．In a low mood one is not able to sing well.
    C．Experts have disagreement on singing.
    D．Singing is the same as other aerobic activities.
    小题5:Which is the best title of the passage?
    A．Karaoke—Best Place for Singing!
    B．Christmas—Best Time for Singing!
    C．Singing—Healthy but Difficult
    D．For Health—Let’s Sing!

    While I was in my 4th month of pregnancy (妊娠期) with my second child, we were preparing for a trip to Louisiana, where Marshall’s family live, to celebrate Jane’s 2nd birthday. Two days before we were to leave, we got the shocking news that I was going to lose the baby. Not knowing when this would happen, we decided to continue with our trip.
    Since Marshall’s family lives on a 600-acre cattle farm, you often find that you have a lot of time to yourself to think when you are there. That is precisely what I did not want to do at this time. I told Marshall that I needed to get a good book to get lost in while I was there. I told him I heard the Harry Potter books were good, so he went out and got the first one for me.
    During that trip, I totally got lost in the book, which was of great help during a time when I needed a distraction to forget about the sadness. In the book, I noticed the name “Seamus”. I vaguely remembered it was pronounced “Shamus” and I liked the sound of that. I mentioned it to Marshall and he liked it too. Toward the end of the trip, I had just 5 chapters left and I knew I was about to finish the first book, which I was pretty excited about.
    Soon after we put Jane down to bed, I had started labor (分娩), so I was unable to read. The labor lasted 5 and 1/2 hours, but Marshall stayed there with me, sitting beside me and reading aloud the last 5 chapters of Harry Potter. I can never fully explain how much that helped me through the experience. And ever since then, Marshall and I both have been fans of the Harry Potter books. We remember how they helped us get through that time of our lives.
    We were sad to have lost the baby, but the name Seamus started our journey toward adoption. And we gave this name to our adopted son. Though our Seamus doesn’t have a drop of Irish blood in him, the name fits him perfectly.
    小题1:Why did the writer want a good book during the trip?
    A．Because the trip to Louisiana would take a long time.
    B．Because she didn’t want to think of losing her baby.
    C．Because she had nothing else to do except reading.
    D．Because a good book could help her enjoy her trip.
    小题2: According to the story, we can know that the Harry Potter books _________________.
    A．made the family’s trip more excitingB．include five books all together
    C．have someone called Seamus in themD．can help people deal with their problems
    小题3: The writer named her son Seamus because ___________________.
    A．she wanted to keep her trip in memoryB．she loved this name very much
    C．her son doesn’t have Irish bloodD．it is a perfect name for a boy
    小题4:Which of the following is TRUE about the couple?
    A．They planned their trip after getting the shocking news.
    B．They thought the cattle farm was too large to do anything on.
    C．They felt excited when they almost finished the trip.
    D．They liked reading Harry Porter very much after the trip.
    小题5: Which is the best title for the passage?
    A．Funny Stories Of My FamilyB．Seamus And Harry Potter
    C．How We Got To LouisianaD．How My Son Got His Name

    When you are little, it’s not hard to believe you can change the world. I remember my enthusiasm when, at the age of 12, I addressed（向……演讲） the people at the Rio Earth Summit. “ I am only a child,” I told them.” Yet I know that if all the money spent on war was spent on ending poverty and finding environmental answers, what a wonderful place this world would be. At school you teach us not to fight with others, to work things out, to respect others, to clean up our mess, not to hurt other creatures, to share, not to be greedy. Then why do you go out and do the things you tell us not to do. You grown-ups say you love us, but I challenge you, please, to make your actions reflect your words.”
    I spoke for six minutes and received a standing ovation. Some of the people even cried. I thought that maybe I had reached some of them, that my speech might actually spur（刺激）action. Now, ten years from Rio, after I’ve sat through many more conferences, I’m not sure what has been achieved. My confidence in the people in power and in the power of an individual’s voice to reach them has been deeply shaken.
    When I was little, the world was simple. But as a young adult, I’m learning that as we have to make choices—educa-tion, career, lifestyle—life gets more and more complicated. We are beginning to feel pressure to produce and be successful. We are taught that economic growth is progress, but we aren’t taught how to seek a happy, healthy way of living. And we are learning that what we wanted for the future when we were 12 was idealistic and naive（天真的）.
    Today I’m no longer a child, but I’m worried about what kind of environment my children will grow up in. I know change is possible, because I am changing, still figuring out what I think. I am still deciding how to live my life. The challenges are great, but if we accept individual responsibility and make choices, we will rise to the challenges, and we will become part of the positive tide of the change. I hope this goal will be met through our common efforts. Thank you all.
    小题1:The purpose of what the speaker said at the age of 12 was to     .
    A．end poverty and make schools beautiful
    B．find environmental answers and show off
    C．focus people’s attention on some social problems
    D．find a wonderful place and clean it up
    小题2:What does the underlined word “ovation”in the second paragraph refer to?
    A．A long period of laughing.B．A cold and unfriendly welcome.
    C．An expression used for greeting.
    D．Great applause or cheering.
    小题3:The information in the text is presented mainly through      .
    A．question and answerB．a personal lecture
    C．cause and effectD．listing steps in a process
    小题4:Which of the following best describes the speaker?
    A．He is an experienced educator.
    B．He is an impolite man.
    C．He is a man of great worries.
    D．He is a man of social responsibility.

    A rat looked through a crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife opening a package. What food might it contain? He was alarmed to discover that it was a rat trap (捕鼠夹).
    Going back to the farmyard the rat gave a warning: “There is a rat trap in the house, a rat trap in the house!” The chicken raised her head and said: “Excuse me, Mr Rat, I can tell this is a big concern to you, but it is of no business to me. I cannot be bothered with it.”
    The rat turned to the pig and told him: “There is a rat trap in the house, a rat trap in the house!”“I am so very sorry, Mr. Rat,” sympathized the pig, “but there is nothing I can do about it but pray. I will make sure that you are in my prayers.”
    The rat turned to the cow. She said, “Like wow, Mr. Rat. A rat trap. I am in grave danger. Duh?”
    So the rat returned to the house, head down and dejected, to face the farmer’s rat trap alone.
    That very night a sound was heard throughout the house, like the sound of a rat trap catching its prey (猎物). The farmer’s wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see that it was a poisonous snake whose tail the trap had caught. The snake bit the farmer’s wife.
    The farmer rushed her to the hospital. She returned home with a fever. Now everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet (短柄斧) to the farmyard for the soup’s main ingredient.
    His wife’s sickness continued so that friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them the farmer killed the pig.
    The farmer’s wife did not get well. She died, and so many people came for her funeral that the farmer had the cow killed to provide meat for all of them to eat.
    So the next time you hear that someone is facing a problem and think that it does not concern you, remember that when there is a rat trap in the house, the whole farmyard is at risk.
    小题1:The underlined word “dejected” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to        .
    A．disappointed B．surprised C．confused D．doubtful
    小题2:   Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?
    A．The chicken showed great concern for the rat.
    B．The pig helped the rat get rid of the trap.
    C．The cow didn’t care about what the rat said.
    D．The snake was killed after being caught in the trap.
    小题3:   We can conclude from the article that        .
    A．the farmer’s wife got good treatment in the hospital
    B．the farmer regretted setting up the rat trap
    C．the rat was very wise in avoiding the trap
    D．none of the other animals felt threatened by the rat trap
    小题4:   What message does the story intend to convey?
    A．We should mind our own business.B．Everything is related to something else.
    C．Helping others is always a virtue.D．We should treat animals in a friendly way.

    What makes it rain? Rain falls from clouds for the same reason anything falls to Earth. The Earth's gravity pulls it. But every cloud is made of water droplets or ice crystal(冰晶). Why doesn't rain or snow fall constantly from all clouds? The droplets or ice crystals in clouds are extremely small. The effect of gravity on them is slight. Air currents move and lift droplets so that the net downward amount of water is zero, even though the droplets are moving constantly.
    It can be seen that droplets and ice crystals behave somewhat like dust in the air in a beam of sunlight. To the casual observer, dust seems to act in a totally random fashion, moving about
    without fixed direction. But in fact dust particles（分子） are much larger than water droplets and they finally fall. The average size of a cloud droplet is only 0.0004 inch in diameter（直径）. It is so small that it would take sixteen hours to fall half a mile in perfectly still air, and it doesn't fall out of moving air at all. Only when the droplet grows to a diameter of 0.008 inch or larger can it fall from the cloud. The average raindrop contains a million times as much water as a tiny cloud droplet. The growth of a cloud droplet to a size larger enough to fall out is the cause of rain and other forms of precipitation. This important growth process is called "coalescence".
