    lt, they do not only look younger and slimmer, but feel better. Because of increased physical fitness, life expectance in the nation has risen to seventy-three years, with fewer people suffering from heart disease, the nation's number one killer.
    Jogging ( 慢跑 ), the easiest and cheapest way of improving the body, keeps over 30million people of all ages on the run. For the price of a good pair of running shoes, anyone anywhere can join the race.
    Dieting, too, has become a national  pastime. Promoters of diets that eliminate eating one thing or another, such as fats or carbohydrates ( 碳水化合物 ), promise as much as 20- pound weight losses within two weeks. Books describing such amazing diets always head up ( 居……之首 )the best-seller lists because people who are overweight want to lose weight quickly and easily.
    Nevertheless, jogging and dieting, carried to extremes, can be harmful. Many confused joggers overdo and finally suffer from ankle and foot damage. Dieting, fortunately, becomes only a temporary means for shedding a few  pounds while the body lose the balanced nutrition ( 营养 )it requires, so most dieters cannot keep on diets. Above all, common sense should be the keystone for any dieting and exercise plan.

    A. both jogging and dieting can improve your health
    B. exercise and improved diet has raised the American's life expectance

    Today’s generation of young people is the largest in human history. Nearly half the world’s population — more than 3 billion people — are under the age of 25. More than half the world’s young people — about 850 million between the ages of 10 and 24 — live in Asia and the Pacific region.
    This rapidly expanding youth population is increasingly vulnerable to HIV.  Young people are at the center of the HIV/AIDS epidemic . Of the 10 million young people living with HIV worldwide, 21% live in Asia and the Pacific region. When surveying of all new HIV/AIDS cases globally, nearly a quarter of all people living with HIV/AIDS are under the age of 25. An estimated 6,000 young people are infected every day — one every 14 minutes. The majority are women and girls. In South Asia, where over 1 million young people between the ages of 15 to 24 are infected with HIV, more than half (62%) are young women.
    Young people are key to defeating the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Yet in most countries, they lack the information, education and services that will enable them to make informed and healthy choices about their health, and the needs of youths are often ignored. UNESCO, in collaboration with other UN agencies, governments, NGOs and community-based organizations, makes efforts to ensure the health needs of youths, including HIV prevention education, programs and policies implemented throughout Asia and the Pacific region.
    59. How many young people with HIV live in Asia and the Pacific area?
    A. 3 billion               B. 850 million        C. 100 million           D. 2.1 million
    60. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
    A. It’s young people themselves that can defeat HIV.
    B. Most cases infected with HIV are young people.
    C. Most young people who are infected with HIV are women.
    D. Half of the world population is infected with HIV.
    61. From the passage we can conclude that ________.
    A. more and more young people will be infected with HIV
    B. it’s because of not being informed that young people are easy to be infected
    C. people in Asia and the Pacific region are easy to be infected
    D. there is no policy for teenagers’ prevention of HIV

    Most of us think that when we step under a shower we’re getting clean．We are, but we’re also giving a home to lots of tiny little creatures we didn’t even know about．
    A showerhead carries thousands of bacteria (细菌) called Mycobacterium．These can cause problems like coughs and tiredness, and a general feeling of poorliness (身体不舒服)．When you turn on the water, the bacteria go from the showerhead onto and into your body．
    This is a finding of Norman R．Pace and his team at the University of Colorado, in the US．The scientists investigated bacteria in all kinds of human environment, including showers．
    Pace's team looked at 45 showerheads in nine American cities．They discovered that 30 percent of them had large amounts of flying Mycobacterium．
    But Pace said that they pose few threats to the health．Only those with a frail (脆弱的) immune (免疫的) system might need to worry．
    He told the New York Times that the bactertia are not as unpleasant as might be thought．He said that having a shower is no more dangerous than anything else we do in the morning．
    But for those who feel sick about the idea of all those microorganisms (微生物), he had some advice．
    Let the water run for 30 seconds before getting into the shower．Why? The number of bacteria is smaller than when the water is just turned on．If that seems like a waste of water, he added that you could also change your showerhead every few months．
    But Pace had good news too．He has also been testing the air in US subways．Apart from iron particles (粒子), which are ground off the track by the wheels of trains, subway air is fresh．The reason is that a train’s movement pumps fresh outdoor air into the tunnels(隧道)．
    Pace explained that he wanted to understand the natural microbial(微生物的) environments of public places．This kind of knowledge might help detect the microbes to be used in a bioterrorist (生物恐怖分子) attack．
    49．According to the finding of Norman R．Pace, after taking a shower, we might ______．
    A．get much dirtier                B．be covered by bacteria
    C．get a frail immune system      D．catch a cough or feel tired
    50．Pace’s research into showers shows that ______．
    A．there is no reason to fear microorganism
    B．shower water contains much less bacteria after being left to run for 30 second
    C．having a shower in the morning is more dangerous than at other time
    D．of 45 showerheads surveyed in nine cities, 30 carried large amounts of Mycobacterium
    51．According to the research of Pace’s team, which of the following contributes to fresh air in US subways?
    A．Train wheels．               B．Iron particles．
    C．The movement of the trains． D．Air conditioners on the trains．
    52．The word “detect” in the last paragraph probably means “______”．
    A．to discover      B．to protect        C．to make   D．to prevent

    Want to be a happy married couple? Consider having kids．
    A new study found that having children boosts happiness．And the more, literally, the merrier．
    But unmarried couples shouldn’t expect to find greater happiness through child-raising．The study, published in the Oct．14 online edition of the Journal of Happiness Studies, suggests that having children has little or no effect on boosting happiness among couples who aren’t hitched(和谐)．
    The findings contradict previous research that suggested that having more offspring doesn't lead to greater happiness and might even make people less satisfied with their lives．One theory behind the conclusion is that parents don’t receive many rewards in return for the hard work of raising children．
    The new study, however, notes that parents say children are one of the most important things in their lives, if not the most important．
    The study found that life satisfaction for married people -- women especially -- goes up the more kids they have．Single, separated and co-habiting people, by contrast, report negative experiences．
    “One is tempted to advance that children make people rich under the ‘right conditions’ -- a time in life when people feel that they are ready, or at least willing, to enter parenthood,” Dr．Luis Angeles, of the University of Glasgow in Scotland, said in a news release from the journal’s publisher．“This time can come at very different moments for different individuals, but a likely signal of its approach may well be the act of marriage．”
    小题1:he underlined word “offspring” in the fourth paragraph can be replaced by _____．
    A．generationB．childrenC．mothersD．marriage
    小题2:The best title of this passage should be _______．
    A．Children Are the Source of Happiness
    B．Are You Happy Married Couple?
    C．Married with Children Paves Way to Happiness
    D．The Right Conditions of Having Children
    小题3:Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
    A．The more children women have, the happier they are．
    B．The more children the married women have, the more unsatisfied they become．
    C．Raising kids can give any person happiness．
    D．Without marriage, one woman had better not raise kids．
    小题4:In the passage, the underlined part ‘right conditions’ refers to _______．
    A．a time when the couple are ready and willing to become parents
    B．the situation where the family is rich enough to raise a child
    C．the situation where the couple are very happy
    D．a time when the couple thinks raising children can boost happiness

    June 26, 2000 — the Human Genome(基因组) Project, a great $3 billion, 15-year task aimed at drawing the genetic map of humans, is now more than 90 percent completed. The scientific and medical communities are very excited about the chances genetic research provides for getting rid of diseases and prolonging(延长) human life. But those communities and policy makers also are careful about the scientific door they are opening as the project uncovers the mysteries of life.
    For the last few years, the genetic advances in the developing field of biotechnology have provides material for all kinds of work, but the developments of modern science in unlocking the secrets of the human genetic code(密码) have opened a world of possibilities for human health, as well as for the popular imagination.
    While European and Japanese researchers are making rapid progress in decoding(解码) human DNA, the leading organization for genetic research is in the United States, which began in 1990, is “unlocking the code” of the human body to learn how to defeat fatal diseases. Already, the Human Genome Project has become widely known and praised for finding the genes connected with terrible diseases as yet(迄今), and making progress toward separating the genes that show a sign of breast cancer or AIDS.
    Once these genes are found and studied, researchers can develop new ways to attack infections, and genetic diseases. Medical companies are very interested in mapping the human genome, as they expect to develop a lot of new drugs for these illnesses.
    小题1: Why did the scientists work hard at mapping the human genome?
    A．Because the human genome can destroy many illnesses.
    B．Because the human genome's completion can help them get rid of many diseases.

    “Human influenza viruses can survive and be infectious for several days when they are deposited on banknotes,” according to the latest study by Yves Thomas and his colleages in Switzerland. Scientists put different types of flu virus onto Swiss franc notes and found that they could survive from a few hours to more than a week. The results depended on the type of flu virus.
    According to the study, Swiss-banknotes are mostly cotton covered by a nonporous resin(无孔树脂). Banknotes from other countries may be composed of different materials, and this could affect viral transmission. “Whether similar results would be obtained with banknotes from other countries and with different characteristics needs to be studied.” the authors wrote. In an interview with Reuters, Thomas said. “Our studies have convinced us that it is possible to catch the flu from banknotes, but the chances are very, very small and there is no cause for concern among the gneral population,” To be sure, many kinds of frequently touched surfaces could temporarily hide the flu virus. Broadly speaking, scientists consider the risk of transmission in this way to be low. Particularly if hand-washing and other hygiene measures are practiced.
    Three things must happen for a flu virus to be transmitted from one person to another via money. First, a person who is infected with the flu virus must sneeze or cough onto the banknote. Next, an uninfected person would need to touch the money while the virus si still present. Finally, that person would need to put his hand in his mouth or pick his nose, says Thomas. The best defense against infection: follow public health guidelines and wash your hands frequently.
    49. What does the underlined word “this” refers to in the second paragraph?
    A. The time when people stay in a bank.
    B. The fact that banknotes may consist of deferent materials.
    C. The bank where people draw their money.
    D. The country where the banknotes are in circlation.
    50. From the last paragraph, we can know that an infected person should ________.
    A. pay attention to his personal hygiene    B. wash his hands after leaving a bank
    C. be monitored at a bank                D. not cough at a bank
    51. What can we learn from the passage?
    A. Any person who touches banknotes will become infected.
    B. Different flu viruses stay on the surface of banknotes for different lengths of time.
    C. The bank should not allow any infected person to enter.
    D. Only banknotes in Switzerland can transmit the flu virus.
    52. What is the best title for the passage?
    A. Is it Dangerous to Stay in a Bank?
    B. How to Avoid Being Infected with the Flu Virus?
    C. Can You Catch the Flu from Handling Money?
    D. Why Do People Refuse to Use Banknotes in Switzerland?

    B
    Do you have a sore throat, a running nose and a headache? Do you keep coughing and sneezing? If you do, the chances are that you have a cold or perhaps flu — but which one? Although both colds and flu are caused by viruses, they are very different illnesses.
    Colds, which usually last about a week, affect the nose most. They commonly cause a running nose and sneezing. Sometimes, they cause a headache, a cough and slightly aching muscles.
    Flu is a much more serious illness and is caused by different group of viruses. People with flu usually get all the symptoms described above. However, they also get a high fever, a dry cough and much worse aching. Fever is one of the characteristic symptoms of the flu for all ages. The symptoms also last much longer. Sometimes they don’t disappear for at least two weeks.
    Flu can be a deadly disease. The elderly, who are weaker and less healthy than most younger people, can die from flu. This is one reason why old people are advised to have a flu injection (预防针) before the start of winter when flu is most common. This injection is inexpensive and definitely worth it.
    If you have a cold or flu, you must always deal with used tissues (纸巾)carefully. Don’t leave dirty tissues on your desk or on the floor. Someone else has to pick these up and viruses could be passed on. And finally, remember to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze! You don’t want to see the small drop of liquids blown out of your nose and mouth when you sneeze, do you? Disgusting, eh? Now you can understand why it’s a good idea to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze!
    60. According to the passage, people with colds hardly get _______.
    A. a headache               B. a high fever                     C. a running nose          D. aching muscles
    61. In paragraph 4, we learn that _______.
    A. flu injection can cause death                                 B. most old people die from flu
    C. flu is most common in summer                             D. flu can kill old people easily
    62. Dealing with used tissues properly is important because _______.
    A. it helps keep your classroom tidy                          B. people hate picking up dirty tissues
    C. it prevents the spread of colds and flu                       D. picking up lots of tissues is hard work
    63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
    A. Both colds and flu last the same time.                  
    B. Both colds and flu can be prevented by injection.
    C. Both colds and flu are caused by the same viruses. 
    D. Both colds and flu have an aching symptom.

    Ⅲ 阅读（共两节。满分40分）
    第一节阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    A
    Good health is the most valuable thing a person can have, but one cannot take good health for granted. It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy. There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape: eat right food, get enough sleep, and exercise regularly.
    Proper nutrition (营养) is important for good health. Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind of “fuel”. Don't eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat. Eat plenty of foods high in protein (蛋白质) , like meat, fish, eggs and nuts. Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins (维他命) and minerals. However, don't overeat. It is not helpful to be overweight.
    Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important. If you don't get enough sleep, you feel tired and easily get angry. You have no energy. Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality. Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night. If you do, your body will feel strong and refreshed, and your mind will be sharp.
    Finally, get plenty of exercise. Exercise firms the body, strengthens the muscles, and prevents you from gaining weight. It also improves your heart and lungs. If you follow a regular exercise program, you will probably increase your life-span (寿命).Any kind of exercise is good. Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shapes: basketball, swimming, bicycling, running and so on are good examples. Sports are not only good for your body, but they are enjoyable and interesting, too.
    If everybody were to eat the right foods, get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly, the world would be a happier and healthier place. We would all live to be much older and wiser.
    41. According to the passage,_________.
    A .we should always keep fit
    B. if we were healthy, we could spend our days in doing things with less sleep
    C. one can eat a lot to stay in good shape
    D. one needn't take any exercise if he is healthy
    42. In order to keep good health, ___________ .
    A. we should eat a lot of sweets      
    B. one needs a large amount of fat
    C. people should eat according to the foods nutrition
    D. we must try to sleep now and then
    43. Eating more and sleeping less________.
    A. can keep healthy                 B. is no good for you
    C. gets you more energy           D. will keep your personality
    44.The writer explains ________in this passage.
    A. how to eat                         B. the importance of doing exercise
    C. how to keep healthy             D. what to eat
    45.The title of the article should be___________ .
    A. Eating and Exercising           B. How Vitamins Work in Man's Body
