When thinking about quitting…
List all the reasons why you want to quit. Every night before going to bed, repeat one of the reasons 10 times. Decide surely that you want to quit. Try to avoid negative(消极的)thoughts about how difficult it might be. Develop strong personal reasons in addition to your health and duties to others. For example, think all the time you waste taking cigarette breaks, rushing out to buy a pack, hunting a light, etc. Set a date for quitting—perhaps a special day like your birthday, or a holiday. If you smoke heavily at work, quit during your vacation. Make the date seriously, and don’t let anything change it. Begin to prepare yourself physically: start a modest(适度的)exercise, drink more water, get plenty of rest.
Immediately after quitting…
The first few days after you quit, spend as much free time as possible in places where smoking is forbidden, e.g. libraries, museums, theatres, department stores, etc. Drink large quantities of water and fruit juice. Try to avoid wine, coffee, and other drinks, which remind you of cigarette smoking. Start a conversation with someone instead of asking for a match for a cigarette. If you miss the sensation(感觉)of having a cigarette in your hand, play with something else—a pencil, a pen, or a ruler. If you miss having something in your mouth, try toothpicks or a fake(假的)cigarette.

Recently some American scientists have given a useful sincere piece of advice to people in industrialized nations that they would be much healthier if they ate more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago.
The scientists say that the human body has changed very little since humans first appeared on the earth, but the way we live has changed greatly. Our body has not been able to deal with these changes in life style and this has led to new kinds of sicknesses. These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times, so they are called “diseases of civilization”. Many cancers and diseases of the blood system, including heart attacks and strokes ( 中风 ) are examples of such diseases.
Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none. Ancient people also got a great deal of physical exercise, but a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.
Stone-age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic or tame ones ( 家畜 ). They also ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits. They didn’t have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains. But today, we eat a large amount of these. We eat six times more salt than our remote ancestors. We eat more sugar. We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.
People today probably do not want to live the way people thousands of years ago did, but scientists say that we would be much healthier if we ate much the same way as remote ancestors did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.
67. What is the main cause that people suffer from a lot of new sicknesses?
A. Ancient people did a great deal of physical exercise.
B. People today have a lot of alcohol.
C. People today have more tobacco.
D. Food today is quite different from that of ancient times.
68. Which of the following belongs to the dairy products?
A. Milk B. Corn C. Pork D. Flour
69. New kinds of sicknesses have been found because ________.
A. the human body has changed compared with humans who first appeared on the earth
B. the way we live has changed a little
C. our body can’t deal with the changes in life style
D. the way we live today is proper for the human body
70. According to some scientists, Stone-age people were much healthier than people today because they ate a lot of ________.
A. milk and other dairy products B. salt and sugar
C. wild animals, fresh wild vegetables and fruits D. grain foods

Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are 36 reasons for this.
Some people blame the fact 37 we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, _38 fried chicken and ice cream, 39 low price. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups 40 seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there 41 fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.
There is another argument that 42 parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I _43 this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate 44 healthy food, or are always allowed to choose 45 they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this 46 throughout their lives.

In my dual (双重的)) profession 36 an educator and health care provider, I have worked with many children infected with HIV. They have taught me so many things, but I have especially learned that great 37 can be found in the smallest individuals. Let me tell you about Tyler.
Tyler was 38 infected with HIV; his mother was also infected. From the very beginning of his life, he was dependent on medications to 39 him to survive. When he was five, he had a tube inserted in a vein(静脉) in his chest. At times, he also needed extra oxygen to support his 40.
Tyler wasn"t_41 to give up one single moment of his childhood to this deadly disease. It was not 42 to find him playing and racing around his backyard, wearing his medicine-loaded backpack and 43 his tank of oxygen behind him in his little wagon ( 小推车 ). All of us who knew Tyler were impressed by his pure 44 in being alive and the energy it gave him. Tyler’s mom often 45 him by telling him that he moved so 46 she needed to dress him in red.

When the school year starts, it can be difficult to get up early.After a few early mornings, extreme tiredness might make you feel like you’re going to fall over.The amazing thing is that you probably manage to stay awake all day long and into the night.But how?
A chemical in the brain called dopamine(多巴胺)might be part of the answer.According to new research, dopamine is what keeps people who don’t get enough sleep from conking out.The chemical also has a complicated influence on your ability to think and learn when you don’t get enough sleep.
To study sleep loss and its effect on the brain, scientists rounded up 15 healthy volunteers.The scientists tested each person’s memory and ability to pay attention twice: once after a good night’s sleep and once after being kept up all night long.During the tests, the scientists measured levels of dopamine in the brains of the volunteers.
The results showed that when the volunteers stayed up all night, dopamine levels increased in the brain.Higher levels of dopamine kept the volunteers awake even though they felt tired.Some people are amazingly able to think clearly and react quickly, even when they haven’t had much sleep.Other people have a really hard time paying attention when tired, and their reactions are slow.All of these may be related to the dopamine levels.However, the researchers found that higher levels of dopamine don’t remove the trouble people have thinking and learning while sleep-deprived (缺乏睡眠的).
60.The underlined phrase “conking out” in the second paragraph probably means .
A.staying awake B.falling asleep
C.paying attention D.falling over
61.With a higher level of dopamine, one .
A.will not dream dreams at night B.may have trouble in falling asleep
C.can still stay awake after staying up D.can do better in learning and working
62.We can infer from the last paragraph that .
A.not all people can react quickly after they stay up late
B.dopamine in our brain does not work when we are sleeping
C.lack of sleep has no influence on one’s learning and thinking ability
D.the higher the dopamine levels are, the more quickly one reacts
63.The passage is developed by .
A.setting up a point and discussing it
B.giving examples and drawing a conclusion
C.pointing out similarities and differences
D.showing a fact and explaining the cause
