阅读理解。     Millions of people are using cell phones today. In many places it is actually considered unusual not to use
one. In many countries, cell phones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more
than a means of communication-having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected.
     The explosions around the world in mobile phone use make some health professionals worried. Some
doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile
phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried
about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your
health.
      On the other hand, why do some medical studies show changes in the brain cells of some people who use
mobile phones? Signs of change in the issues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning (扫描)equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at a young age because of serious memory loss,
He couldn"t remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to
talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week,for a couple of years. His
family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer"s doctor didn"t agree.
     What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can
detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some
radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about.
     As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it"s best to use mobile phones less often. Use
your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it.
Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may
have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, it"s wise not to use your mobile phone
too often. 1. The world "detected" in paragraph 3 could be best replaced by _____. A. discovered
B. removed
C. cured
D. caused 2. The salesman retired young because _____. A. he disliked using mobile hones
B. he couldn"t remember simple tasks
C. he was tired of talking on his mobile phone
D. his employer"s doctor persuaded him to3. On the safety issue of mobile phones, the manufacturing companies _____.A. deny the existence of mobile phone radiation
B. develop new technology to reduce mobile phone radiation.
C. hold that the amount of radiation is too small to worry about
D. try to prove that mobile phones are not harmful to health

阅读理解。     When you first meet a disabled person, what is your first reaction? Curiosity? Sympathy? If you experience
any of these emotions, you are not alone. Chances are that you don"t regularly associate with someone who is
disabled. Here are four points to keep in mind if you should happen to meet a disabled person.
     Disabled people can lead active lives
     With few exceptions, a disability does not prevent someone from working, raising a family, or taking part in
social activities. Many sports and recreation programs have been adapted to a person with a disability. Instead
of concentrating on the disability, look at the person the same way you would look at any normal person.
     It"s all right to ask questions
      Many people are afraid of offending someone by asking about their disability. When meeting them for the
first time, it"s natural to be curious about who he or she is, and where they"re from. Asking questions is usually
acceptable, as long as you use common sense. Don"t, for example, ask a blind person how he feeds and bathes
himself.
     Offer help when necessary
      You see a woman in a wheelchair having trouble entering a building. It"s usually appropriate to lend a hand
if someone is having obvious difficulty, but keep in mind that not everyone will be willing to accept your help.
Unless the woman in the wheelchair is in danger, you do your part.
     Remember that we all have obstacles to overcome
     No matter who we are, each of us has a weakness or challenge to face. Like you, a disabled person would
much rather be accepted for who they are, rather than be pitied. Many friends have said to me,"I often forget
that you are blind." To me, that is the top compliment.1. Why are you curious when you first see disabled people? A. They can"t live normally.
B. You seldom deal with them.
C. You look down upon them.
D. They look quite different.2. What should you do if you find a disabled person can manage it? A. You had better lend him or her a hand.
B. You pretend that you haven"t seen him or her.
C. You should encourage him or her to try.
D. You had better leave him or her alone.3. From this passage we learn that _______. A. the author is blind himself
B. a disabled person needs pitying
C. not everyone has a weakness
D. some people have no difficulty

these pets and have them as their good friends. Before they keep them in their houses, they take them to
animal hospitals to give them injections (注射) so that they won"t carry diseases. They have special animal

阅读理解。     If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them
again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that
memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he
keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means
that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we
know that it is his own fault (过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his
parents are to blame (受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some
people can"t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and
they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days,
names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good
memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering.1. The main reason why one is poor memory is that _______. A. his father or mother may have a poor memory
B. He does not use his arms or legs for some time
C. his memory is not often used
D. he can"t read or write 2. If you do not use your arms or legs for some time _______. A. you can"t use them any more
B. they become weak and won"t become strong until you use them again.
C. they will become stronger
D. they will become neither stronger nor weaker 3. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs.
B. Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you don"t give it enough chance for practice.
C. A good memory comes from more practice.
D. Don"t learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory. 4. Some people can"t read or write, but they usually have better memories, because _______. A. they have saved much trouble
B. they have saved much time to remember things
C. they have to use their memories all the time

阅读理解。     As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal
than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.
     Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping (录像) the families while they ate ordinary
meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their
children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents"efforts to control the
loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. "In general the more question-asking
the parents do, the higher the children"s IQ scores," Lewis says. "And the more children there are, the less
question-asking there is." The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a
harder time in life than their siblings (兄弟姐妹). Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. "Middle children are invisible," says Lewis. "When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it"s the middle child." There is, however, one thing that stops all
conversation and prevents anyone from having attention: "When the TV is on," Lewis says,"dinner is a
non-event." 1. The writer"s purpose in writing the text is to ______.A. show the relationship between parents and children
B. teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner table
C. report on the findings of a study
D. give information about family problems 2. Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because _______. A. they are busy serving food to their children
B. they are busy keeping order at the dinner table
C. they have to pay more attention to younger children
D. they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family 3. By saying "Middle children are invisible" in paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle children ______. A. have to help their parents to serve dinner
B. get the least attention from the family
C. are often kept away from the dinner table
D. find it hard to keep up with other children 4. Lewis" research provides an answer to the question ______. A. why TV is important in family life
B. why parents should keep good order
C. why children in small families seem to be quieter
D. why middle children seem to have more difficulties in life5. Which of the following statements would the writer agree to?A. It is important to have the right food for children.
B. It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner.
C. Parents should talk to each of their children frequently.
D. Elder children should help the younger ones at dinner

阅读理解。     Many students want to find friends on the Internet as a way of practising their language skills and learning
more about new cultures. Traditional pen pals were the primary source for such contacts, and students could
write each other letters. With the Internet, finding friends has become much easier, and such relationships are
called key pals.
     However, care and consideration should be given when finding friends on the Internet:
     ◎Search the Internet for reputable (有信誉的) services. Look for reviews(评论) of such sites to learn more about other students" experiences. Don"t join a service until you have done your research.
     ◎Check to see if you can use a nickname (绰号) instead of __________, to protect your identity(身份).
     ◎Never give personal information to anyone, including your home address, phone number, and birthday.
     ◎Stop contact with others if you feel uncomfortable with the topics of conversation. Again, if you protect
your identity, this will be easier to do. Tell your teachers, parents, or even local law enforcement if problem
arise.
     ◎Try to use the language you are studying in the classroom in your communication(交流) with others.
     ◎Ask proper questions that will also help you learn about other cultures. Remember that someone"s
personal experience might help you to understand a whole culture. You have to talk to many different people,
and this will get you started. 1. Please give this passage a proper title. (Please answer with 10 words.)
___________________________________________________________________________
2. Please fill in the blank with proper words. (Please answer within 5 words.)
