13.It is sad but true that people die in earthquakes(61)fromfalling furniture and bricks.Earthquake(62)safety(safe) is very important and there is more to it(63)thanjust keeping buildings from falling down.So if your home is in an earthquake area,you should prepare carefully before the earthquake(64)comes(come).
First,make sure you buy a house which is earthquake safe.All pipes should be fixed to the walls and all walls should be(65)especially (especial) thick and strong.Make sure the building has no(66)broken(break) windows and is well repaired.
Second,look at the objects in your house.Objects(67)like computers,televisions and lamps can be tied to tables or(68)stuck(stick) to them so they won't easily move around.The cupboards,(69)where many small things are stored,should have strong doors.Always remember,(70)better(good) safe than sorry.

分析 本文作者主要讲述了防震安全知识;首先,要确保买一栋能够安全防震的房子,如:所有的管道都要固定在墙上,所有的墙壁都应该特别的厚重与结实;确保该房屋没有损坏的窗户,并且是修缮完好的;其次,应将房子里的物品都绑在桌子上或将其固定住,这样,他们便不会轻易地移动;将小的物件都存储在橱柜里,还要确保橱柜的门要结实;文章最后,作者提醒读者:注意安全总比事后后悔强,即小心驶得万年船!

解答 61.from       考查固定短语      固定短语die from意为:死于;这里指:在地震中人们死于倒落的家具和砖块;故填from
62.safety     考查名词       此处与其修饰词Earthquake一起作主语,并且谓语动词is为单数形式,因此这里应使用名词的单数形式;意为:地震安全,防震安全;故填safety
63.than       考查连词      本句的意思:地震安全很重要,除了要防止建筑物的倒塌之外,还有比这多很多的事情要做;根据句中的比较级"more"以及句意可知,此处应填连词than
64.comes    考查时态     本句的意思是:因此如果你的家在震区,你应该在地震到来之前仔细地做好准备;此处讲述的是一些常识,并且根据So if your home is…使用了一般现在时,故此处也应使用一般现在时;由于该从句的主语the earthquake是第三人称单数形式;故填comes
65.especially   考查副词    此处在句中修饰形容词thick and strong,意为:特别的厚重与结实;故填especially
66.broken   考查过去分词     根据句意"确保建筑物没有损坏的窗户,并且是修缮完好的"可知,此处表示被动与完成的动作,指损坏的窗户;故填broken
67.like    考查介词      根据"computers,televisions and lamps"都属于Objects(物品),故可以推测出,此处表示列举;故填介词like(像…)
68. stuck  考查过去分词      根据句意"像电脑,电视,点灯等物品可以被绑在桌子上或被固定住,这样,他们便不会轻易地移动"可知,此处表达了被动的意义,并且本句的谓语是由并列连词or连接在一起的,所以此处应省略掉 can be,故填stuck
69.where    考查关系副词      根据句意及空缺处之前的逗号可知,本句是非限定性定语从句;由于先行词 cupboards在从句中作地点状语,意为:橱柜里存储着许多小的物品;故填关系副词where
70.better     考查形容词的比较级    根据句中的连词than以及句意"安全总比事后后悔强"可知,此处表示两者的比较;故用比较级better

点评 本题主要考查了各种语法在短文中的具体运用.做本题时,需要在正确理解短文的前提下,逐句分析句意以及所考查到的语法现象;因此在平时的学习中,应熟练掌握各种语法知识,其中包括词法,句法,各种时态语态以及虚拟语气等.

11.How many hours do you spend sitting in a chair every day?Eight hours in the office plus three hours in front of the TV after work is the  norm for many people.
You probably don't need an expert to tell you that sitting too much is not good for your health-from an increased risk of heart disease and obesity in the long term,to reduced cholesterol(胆固醇)maintenance in the short term,not to mention the strain on your neck and spine.
To make matters worse,many researches show a good diet and regular exercise call't reduce the negative effects of sitting too much.
A 2010study of nearly 9,000Australians found that for each additional hour of television a person watched per day,the risk of dying rose by 11percent.Another study tracked the health of 123,000Americans between 1992and 2006.The death rate for men who spent six hours or more per day sitting was about 20percent higher than for men who sat for three hours or less.
So what can we do about it?Health experts suggest we break up those many hours spent sitting with more hours spent standing.
The BBC conducted a simple experiment with a group of 10volunteers who usually spent most of the day sitting.They were asked to stand for at least three hours a day.The researchers took measurements Oil days when the volunteers stood,and when they sat around.When they looked at the data there were some striking differences,the BBC reported.
Blood sugar leveled off much quicker on the days when the study subjects stood compared with the days they spent in a chair.Standing also burned more calories--about 50calories an hour.A member said although doing exercise offers many proven benefits,our bodies also need the increase in muscle activity that standing provides.
The researchers believe that even small adjustments,like standing while talking on the   phone,will help.

56.The underlined word"norm"in Paragraph 1most probably meansA.
A.standard answer    B.cause
C.excuse             D.reasonable explanation
57.What bad effect does sitting too much have?B
A.A low risk of heart disease.      B.Becoming too fat.
C.Balanced cholesterol maintenance. D.Benefiting your neck and spine.
58.What's the main idea of Paragraph 4?A
A.Sitting is killing us.
B.We should have a good diet.
C.Watching TV does us no good.
D.Women have higher death rate than men.
59.What is the purpose of the experiment in the text?C
A.To help the 10volunteers to lose weight.
B.To find the difference between standing and sitting.
C.To prove the benefit of standing.
D.To teach us how to control blood sugar.
60.What would be the best title for the text?B
A.Having regular exercise    B.Standing up for health
C.Watching less TV           D.Increasing muscle activity.

4.Among all the fast growing science and technology,the research of human genes,or biological engineering as people call it,is drawing more and more attention now.Sometimes it is a hot topic discussed by people.
The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with,such as cancer and heart disease.Every year,millions of people are murdered by these two killers.And to date,doctors have not found an effective way to cure them.But if the gene technology is applied,not only these two diseases can be cured completely,bringing happiness and more living days to the patients,but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved,therefore it benefits the economy as well.In addition,human life span(寿命) can be prolonged.
Gene technology can help people to give birth to healthy and clever children.Some families,with the English imperial family being a good example,have hereditary(遗传的) diseases.This means their children will for sure have the family disease,which is a great trouble for these families.In the past,doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases.But gene technology can solve this problem perfectly.The scientist just need to find the wrong gene and correct it,and a healthy child will be born.
Some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture human beings in large quantities.In the past few years,scientists have succeeded in cloning a sheep,therefore these people predict that human babies would soon be cloned.But I believe cloned babies will not come out in large quantities,for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way.Of course,the government must take care to control gene technology.

66.What does"these two killers"in the second paragraph refer to?C
A.Gene technology and another treatment of the two diseases.
B.The two murderers who killed the cloned baby.
C.The two diseases of cancer and heart disease.
D.Hereditary diseases and cancer.
67.What's the main idea of the third paragraph?A
A.How gene technology can be applied in the field of treating hereditary diseases.
B.Gene technology can be used to clone human babies.
C.Gene technology can help people to give birth to a baby.
D.Gene technology can help the English imperial family out.
68.In what way gene technology can help to treat hereditary diseases?B
A.Using gene technology,people with hereditary diseases can have more living days.
B.Using gene technology,the scientist finds the wrong gene and corrects it.
C.Using gene technology,human babies can be cloned.
D.Doctors can cure cancer and heart disease with the help of gene technology.
69.What is the main purpose of writing this passage?A
A.Expressing the writer's idea that gene technology will benefit people.
B.Telling people the disadvantages of gene technology.
C.Telling the readers that gene technology will not benefit people.
D.Explaining that gene technology will also do harm to the humanity.

7.If you're thinking about reaching for another biscuit to get you through the working day,think again.Eating unhealthy snacks at your desk makes you pile on almost half a stone a year,a survey has revealed.The waistlines of women suffer the most,with the average female putting on 6lb 3oz-the equivalent of a whole dress size-while men see their weight increase by 5lb 2oz.
The report into our eating habits found that,on average,we eat at least two snacks a day,with 30 per cent of us tucking into three or more.Women admit eating more than men,with a further 13 per cent of ladies scoffing four or more snacks a day.The research,by The Village Bakery,found biscuits are the most common vice,with 42 per cent regularly opening a pack,closely followed by chocolate (38 per cent),crisps (32 per cent) and cakes (13 per cent).
And office workers are worse than most.Cakes and biscuits brought into work by colleagues are one of the main temptations office staff give in to.In addition,33 per cent admit reaching for nibbles to cope with stress and 22 per cent say they need a sugar rush to perk them up in the afternoon.
Simon Staddon,of The Village Bakery,said:"We were aware time-poor office workers can find it difficult to easily access a nutritional lunch.But we were really shocked by the extent to which‘quick fix'lunches are affecting weight gain and general wellbeing.Popular mid-afternoon pick-me-ups such biscuits,chocolate and cakes are high in calories,fat and full of sugar,all of which affect your blood sugar levels and ultimately lead to weight gain."
The survey of 2,000 British men and women suggests we are often ashamed of our unhealthy eating.Twenty-four per cent of Britons admit lying about how many snacks they eat with 33 per cent of women lying,compared to 20 per cent of men.Unfortunately,it's not as if we are likely to do anything positive to counteract the sweet treats.

A.on the face       
B.on the legs

A.Colleagues eat them to save money.
B.Staff use them to cope with their lunch.
C.Colleagues often bring them to office.
D.Bosses invite staff to eat them.
63.Why do office workers eat a"quick fix"lunch?D
A.Because it has much of nutrition.
B.Because it has little effect on weight gain.
C.Because it has little effect on general wellbeing.
D.Because they have short time to have their lunches.

A.less likely to lie on snacks than men       
B.more likely to lie on snacks than men

2.A new study surprised researchers,finding that for adolescent girls,romantic relationship problems can have serious,negative impacts on their mental health.
"I found that girls'risk of severe depression,thoughts of killing themselves,and self-killing attempt increase,the more their relationships diverge (偏离) from what they imagined,"said the study's author Brian Soller,Ph.D.,an assistant professor of sociology at the University of New Mexico.
Soller used data from more than 5,300high school students from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health.From this data he examined the mental health consequences of mismatches between adolescents'ideal and actual relationships.
Soller measured relationship inauthenticity by comparing how adolescents described their ideal relationship in an initial interview with how their first relationship after the interview actually played out.
"In the initial interview,researchers provided adolescents with a number of cards describing events that often occur within relationships,including everything from hand-holding and kissing to sex,"Soller said.
Respondents kept cards describing events they would engage in within an ideal relationship,and then indicated the order in which the events would occur.
Roughly a year later,the respondents repeated the exercise,only this time they indicated which events took place within their relationship,and then provided the order in which the events happened.
During both interviews,researchers asked participants about their mental health.
As for why relationship inauthenticity increased the risk of mental health problems for girls,but not for boys,Soller said,"Romantic relationships are particularly important components of girls'identities and are,therefore,strongly related to how they feel about themselves-good or bad.
"As a result,relationships that diverge from what girls imagine for themselves are especially damaging to their emotional well-being."
On the other hand,Soller said relationships are not as important to boys'identities.
"Boys may be more likely to build their identities around sports or other after-class activities,so this could be why they are not affected by relationship inauthenticity,"he said.
In terms of the study's policy implications,Soller said parents,educators,and policymakers should think about how to help girls construct identities that are less closely tied to romantic involvement.
"Helping girls build their identities around things other than romantic relationships may  mitigate the effects of relationship inauthenticity on their mental health,"he said.

59.From the text,we can know thatC.
A.the mental health results of teens'ideal relationship matches actual relationship
B.in the first interview,teens are asked to state their actual relationship
C.thousands of senior school students serve as subjects
D.half a year later,the subjects are required to describe their mental problem again
60.Soller may agree thatC.
A.romantic relationship plays as important a part in girls'life as in boys'life
B.romantic relationship prevents girls from participating in various activities
C.romantic relationship problems can damage teen girls'mental health
D.romantic relationship is strongly related to how boys feel about themselves
61.The underlined word"mitigate"can be replaced byA.
A.ease                          B.increase
C.protect                        D.prohibit
62.What is the author's purpose in writing this text?B
A.To persuade.B.To inform.
