American men who go online are more likely than women to check the weather, the news, sports, political and financial information, the Pew Internet and American Life Project reported Wednesday. They are also more likely to use the Internet to download music and software and to take a class.
Online women, meanwhile, are bigger users of e-mail, and they are also more likely to go online for religious information and support for health or personal problems.
“For men, it’s just, ‘give me the facts,’” said Deborah Fallows, who wrote the report based on six years of Pew surveys, “For women, its ‘Let’s talk about this. Are you worried about this problem?’ It’s keeping in touch and connecting with people in a richer way.”
About two- thirds of the 6,403 adults surveyed by Pew during 2005 said they use the Internet. By gender, it was 68%of the male respondents, and 66%of the female participants---a statistically insignificant(不重要的)difference given the study’s margin of sampling error of plus or minus 2%points. In 2002, by contrast, the gap was slightly larger: 61%vs. 57%.
The surveys find that for many activities, such as getting travel information or looking up a phone number, men and women are equally likely to use the Internet.
小题1: According to the passage, which of the following is not what American men who go online do?
A.Checking the weather and the news. | B.Searching for religious information. |
C.Downloading some music. | D.Taking a class. |
A.There are some difference between men and women in the US. |
B.There is a slight difference between the numbers of men and women online in the US. |

A.A small part of women in the US go on line today. |
B.Women in the US going on line are only concerned with personal problems. |
C.Men are still more likely to use the Internet than women. |
D.The gap between both sexes going online in 2002 was slightly larger than that in 2005. |
A.To tell us the different aims of men and women in the US who go online. |
B.To show why men and women are equally likely to use the Internet. |
C.To teach us how to surf the Internet. |
D.To offer us some information of both sexes’ going online in the US. |
In recent years, many office supply companies have begun to sell adjustable desks.These so-called "sit / stand" models are equipped with an electric motor that lets them shift from chair height to person height at the push of a button.Unfortunately, sit / stand desks tend to be expensive, hard to find and not very easy to test in person.
I discovered that when I worked standing up, my mind was clearer and new ideas kept coming to me.I suspect that this is because when you"re standing, you feel a bit unchained from your desk.If I got stuck on a word or sentence as I wrote it, I found myself shaking my arms, bouncing (跳) on my feet or stepping away from the desk for a bit — things I couldn"t do in a chair.Often, standing up seemed to relax my mind enough for me to get over creative barriers.
There"s another thing about standing for a long time: I tend to get hungrier than I do when I sit on a chair.That feels like confirmation(证实) of the stand-up advocates’ belief that you burn more calories when you stand than when you sit.For this reason alone, I" m hoping that one day mass-market furniture companies can make many low-priced versions of sit / stand desks.We could all work with a bit more standing up.
小题1:The author likes standing up while working because __________.
A.he wants to show that he has a lot of courage |
B.researchers say standing makes one healthier |
C.he intends to catch up the fashion trend |
D.he hopes to improve his work and relax himself |
A.adjustable desks are mass-produced now |
B.adjustable desks are easy to operate |
C.cheaper adjustable desks will soon be available |
D.adjustable desks can be tried out easily |
A.Standing up at work is a better choice. |
B.Standing up at work takes courage. |
C.Standing up at work burns more calories. |
D.Standing up at work will replace traditional sitting. |
38 at home, a different story is told---how we 39 our loved ones. While I was cooking ,my daughter came up to me quietly. When I 40 , I nearly knocked her down. "Get out of the way! "I barked She ran away, with her little heart broken. I didn"t realize how 41 I"d spoken.
That night, as I lay 42 in bed, God"s quiet voice spoke to me and said, "While 43 with a stranger, you"re calm and polite, but with those you love, you"re quick to 44 . Go and look right now on the kitchen floor. You"ll 45 some flowers there by the door. Those are the flowers she brought for you. She 46 them herself. She stood there _ 47 , not to spoil your surprise, and you never saw the tears in her eyes." 48 this time, I felt sad and my own tears had begun to 49 . "Are these the flowers you picked for me?" I asked. She 50, "I found them out by the tree. 1 knew you"d like them." I said, "I"m so sorry that I 51 them today. And I shouldn"t have shouted at you that way." She whispered, “Mommy, that"s okay... I still love you 52 .” I hugged her.
Are you aware that if you die tomorrow, the company that you are working for could easily 53 you in a matter of days? But the family you leave behind will feel the 54 for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we 55 more into our work than into our families –an unbalanced investment (投资) indeed.

The study, reported in the Journal Sleep, does not prove that too little or too much sleep directly leads to excess fat gain. But the findings support and extend those of other studies linking sleep duration - particularly a lack of sleep - to weight gain and even to higher risks of diabetes(糖尿病) and heart disease. Among participants younger than 40, the study found, those who said they slept for five hours or less each night gained more belly fat than those who averaged six or seven hours of sleep. On average, short sleepers showed a 32 percent gain in visceral(内脏的)fat, versus a 13 percent gain among those who slept six or seven hours per night, and a 22 percent increase among men and women who got at least eight hours of sleep each night. A similar pattern was seen with superficial abdominal(腹部)fat.
The findings, according to lead researcher Dr. Kristen G. Hairston, support the belief that sleep habits affect weight and health in general. "Sleep is an important part of your overall health - not just in whether you"re tired during the day," she said.
There may be indirect effects; people who get too little sleep may be too tired during the day to exercise, while those who spend a lot of time in bed may spend less time being active, relative to people who sleep fewer hours. Research also suggests that sleep loss alters people"s levels of appetite-regulating hormones(荷尔蒙)- which could, in theory, cause them to overeat. Depression, which often affects people"s sleep and has been linked to weight gain, could also be a factor, Hairston noted.
小题1:Who may have the higher risk of being fat over the next five years?
A.Jack, a Hispanic man, aged 35, sleeps for 3 hours every night. |
B.Candy, a black woman, aged 41, sleeps for about 5 hours every night. |
C.Bob, an American, aged 50, sleeps for more than 12 hours every day. |
D.John, a student in Africa, sleeps for more than 6 hours every week. |
A.Too little or too much sleep directly gives rise to the fat gain. |
B.People are subject to heart disease due to the lack of sleep. |
C.It is admitted that sleep plays an important part in our health. |
D.Researchers find a longer sleep time is better for our health. |
A.People should do some exercise in their daily life. |
B.There is a close link between sleep habits and health. |
C.More nutrition is greatly needed when we lack sleep. |
D.More and more people tend to sleep less than before. |
A.Younger adults getting little or much sleep may become fat. |
B.We are supposed to do exercise as much as possible to keep fit. |
C.We should keep a good sleep habit to improve our health. |
D.We have to spare no efforts to drive depression away. |
A.Sleep Habits Linked to Fat Gain in Younger Adults. |
B.Doing Exercise Is the Best Way to Keep Fit. |
C.Our Waistlines Can Be Driven Away Right Now. |
