题型:0128 期末题难度:来源:
阅读理解。     When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles (肌肉) get tense, and there are changes
in the chemicals in its blood-stream. If the danger continues, it will defend itself, or it will run away as fast as
possible.
     Something like this also happens to people. When we are excited, angry, scared or aroused by other
emotions, our bodies go through many physical changes, all of which make us more alert (警觉的) and ready
to react. We, too, get ready to defend ourselves or run. Human beings, however, have a problem that animals
never face. If we give way to our feelings and let them take over, we can get into trouble. Have you ever said
something in anger-or hit somebody-and regretted it later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody
you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then wished later you had kept your mouth shout? It isn"t
always wise to express your feelings freely.
     Does this mean that it"s smarter always to hide our feelings? No! If you keep your feelings of anger,
sadness, and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense. Physical illnesses can develop,
and you can feel disturbed badly inside, it can actually be bad for your health. You can try to treat emotions as
if they were bananas in the cupboard.
     You can hide them and you can pretend they don"t exist, but they"ll still be around. And at last you"ll have to
deal with them, just like those bananas. 1. By taking cat as an example, the author wants to show us that _______.A. animals can"t control their feelings
B. people can"t control their feelings
C. people physical reactions are like those of animals in a way
D. people"s bodies go through many physical changes in certain situations, too.2. It"s mentioned in the text that human beings get into trouble because ______. A. we are not as alert as animals
B. we sometimes can"t control our feelings
C. we always do something wrong to other people
D. we don"t pay attention to our physical changes 3. The author wants to tell us in the last two paragraphs that ______. A. there"s no way to deal with our feelings
B. we should put some bananas in a cupboard when we"re angry or scared
C. feelings will gradually disappear when we hold them in
D. we should neither express our feelings freely nor hide the bad feelings inside 4. The author"s purpose in writing this article is to _______. A. tell us that it"s pretty good to keep our feelings inside
B. give some advice on how to express our feelings freely
C. make us deal with our feelings in a wise way
D. make us know it isn"t always good to express our feelings freely

AIDS Day.
     The red ribbon, an international symbol of AIDS awareness, is gaining increasing public recognition as
more Chinese, from top leaders to movie stars, wear it today.

1986 to a pledge of 800 million yuan (US$98.8 million) in the year of 2006.
    The change from silence to public and media campaigns with official promises has been remarkable,
especially since China battled through the SARS crisis.

     This book is written expressly (清楚地) for students in an attempt to present the material that is most
useful and interesting to them. Previous courses in chemistry are not necessary for the understanding of the
material, although those students who have had high school chemistry will find that a review of the inorganic
section will better enable them to master the organic and biochemistry sections that follow.
     The author has felt that in the past there was an improper selection of material from inorganic, organic,
and biochemistry in the majority of the textbooks of chemistry for nurses. The tendency has been to develop
the inorganic chemistry to such an extent that organic and biochemistry are covered too briefly. The recent
advances in biochemistry and their widespread application to the practice of medicine and nursing have
considerably altered the situation. Not only is biochemistry more closely allied to the practical chemistry of
medicine and nursing, but also it is of more interest to the students. In the author"s experience the response
to biochemistry has always been more favorable than to other sections. Within the brief period allotted to
 chemistry, therefore, the sections on inorganic, organic, and biochemistry should be so arranged that a good
share of the time is spent on the study of biochemistry. This book presents mainly those fundamentals of
inorganic and organic chemistry that are necessary for the understanding of the section on biochemistry.
    The fundamental points suggested in the Curriculum Guide are included in the book, with some additions
in the biochemistry section. The author feels that a study of urine, vitamins, nutrition, and hormones is so
obviously a part of biochemistry that at least the fundamentals should be included in this course.
     The book has been planned in such a way that it may be adapted to various courses in chemistry. The
material suggested by Curriculum Guide is covered in the first nineteen chapters and may be used in
accelerated courses or where minimum time is allotted to chemistry. When the time allotted to the course is
sixty to ninety hours, the entire contents of the book may be used to advantage. While the book has been
written especially to fit the needs of schools of nursing, it could readily be applied in instances where students
are required to take but one course in chemistry. The apathetic (无动于衷的) attitude of nonprofessional
students toward a course in inorganic chemistry may well be overcome by the proper presentation of material
selected from inorganic, organic, and biochemistry.

1. This piece of writing is _____. A. an introduction to a course book
B. a professor"s letter to his students
C. the record of an introductory speech
D. from a school announcement2. To read this book _____. A. previous course in chemistry are necessary
B. a good mastery of biochemistry is essential
C. one needn"t have studied chemistry before
D. one must first review his high school courses 3. In the author"s experience, the students are most interested in _____. A. inorganic chemistry
B. biochemistry
C. organic chemistry
D. chemistry as a whole 4. The underlined word "allotted" in the last paragraph means _____. A. separated
B. obtained
C. needed
D. distributed 5. Paragraph 4 suggests that one characteristic of this book is its _______. A. simplicity in presentation
B. thoroughness in the field
C. vividness of the language
D. adaptability to various needs

     The evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young
people now get on with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly held image (印象) of unhappy
teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.
      An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious
than it has ever been in the past. "We were surprised by just how positive today"s young people seem to be
about their families," said one member of the research team."They"re expected to be rebellious (叛逆的) and
selfish but actually they have other things on their minds; they want a car and material goods, and they worry
about whether school is serving them well. There"s more negotiation (商议) and discussion between parents
and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They don"t want to rock
the boat."
     So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their
children as friends."My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me," says
17-years-old Daniel Lazall."I always tell them when I"m going out clubbing. As long as they know what I"m
doing, they"re fine with it." Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees. "Looking back on the last 10 years, there
was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long as I"d done all my homework, I could go
out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that."
     Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenage
rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A researcher comments,"Our surprise that teenagers say they get along
well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as
different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during
that one time in the 1960s when everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth
change from helping out with the family business to taking it over." 1. What is the popular image of teenagers today? A. They worry about school.
B. They dislike living with their parents.
C. They have to be locked in to avoid troubles.
D. They quarrel a lot with other family members. 2. The study shows that teenagers don"t want to ______. A. share family responsibility
B. cause trouble in their families
C. go boating with their family
D. make family decisions3. Compared with parents of 30 years ago, today"s parents ______. A. go to clubs more often with their children
B. are much stricter with their children
C. care less about their children"s life
D. give their children more freedom 4. According to the author, teenage rebellion ______. A. may be a false belief
B. is common nowadays
C. existed only in the 1960s
D. resulted from changes in families 5. What is the passage mainly about?A. Negotiation in family.
B. Education in family.
C. Harmony in family.
D. Teenage trouble in family.
