阅读理解。     Celia was shocked. She had always been in good shape during high school, but now, in her first year
of college, she was suddenly ten pounds heavier. "My friends and I often had pizza or ice cream when
we studied late at night," she said, "and I was always drinking Coke to stay awake."
     Celia"s experience is common. Many students enter college and find it so different that they cannot
deal with changes properly. They"re away from their parents and in a new stressful (压力的) environment.
Pressures (压力) together with freedom to sleep and eat however they please cause many students to
experience the "Freshman 15": gaining weight suddenly in their freshman year of college.
     Most students do not realize that the "Freshman 15" can cause some serious health problems. Of
course, college-age adults are still developing bone mass,so gaining some weight is normal. Sudden weight
gain, however, puts too much strain (负担) on the heart and lungs,resulting in little energy and some
difficult thinking and remembering. In later life, it can lead to heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and possibly
cancer.
     The solution to the"Freshman 15" is simple-pay attention to developing good habits! In general:
     ● Eat normal-sized meals at regular times. Eat slowly and enjoy it,so you don"t need to go back for more. 
     ● Keep only healthy snacks in your room-and don"t snack too often!
     ● Control drinking and smoking. Alcohol has a lot of calories, and smoking too much makes exercise
        difficult.
     ● Exercise regularly! Even just 30 minutes a day-such as walking quickly to class from your dorm-will
        make a big difference! 1. What happened to Celia in her first year of college? [     ]
A. She had sleep problems
B. She put on weight suddenly
C. She always studied late
D. She went on diet so as to keep in good shape 2. What do many students think of their freshman year of college? [     ]
A. They find it quite different
B. They find it not quite difficult

Dear Expert:
     I was asked to retrieve my 14-year-old daughter from a five-day camping trip. She was suffering
from such severe separation anxiety, her teacher thought she should go home. She hadn"t eaten
anything and had refused to participate in any activities. The thing is my daughter is extremely bright
and has many friends; she organized a few friends into a band, and it belongs to several school clubs.
She"s just always had an extreme fear of being away from home. I don"t want her to miss out on
other trips.
                                                                                                                              Yours truly,
                                                                                                                              Jonathan

     Boiler rooms are often dirty and steamy, but this one is el.ean and cool. Fox Point is a very new47-unit
living building in South Bronx, one of the city"s poorest areas. Two-thirds of the people living there are
formerly (以前) homeless people, whose rent is paid by the government. The rest are low-income families.
The boiler room has special equipment, which produces energy for electricity and heat. It reuses heat that
would otherwise be lost to the air, reducing carbon emissions (碳排放) while also cutting costs.
     Fox Point is operated by Palladia, a group that specializes in providing housing and services to needy,
people. Palladia received support from Enterprise Community Partners (ECP), which helps build affordable
housing by providing support to housing developers.
     ECP has created national standards for healthy, environmentally (环境方面) clever and affordable homes
which are called, the Green Communities Standards. These standards include water keeping, energy saving
and the use of environmentally friendly building materials. Meeting the standards increases housing
construction costs by 2%, which is rapidly paid back by lower running costs. Even the positioning of a
window to get most daylight can help save energy.
     Michael Bloomberg, New York"s mayor, plans to create 165,000 affordable housing units for 500,000
New Yorkers. Almost 80% of New York City"s greenhouse-gas emissions come from buildings, and 40%
of those are caused, by housing. So he recently announced that the city"s Department of Housing and
Preservation and Development (DHPD), whose duty is to develop and keep the city"s supply of affordable
housing, will require all its new projects to follow ECP"s green standards.
     Similar measures have been taken by other cities such as Cleveland and Denver, but New York"s DHPD
is the largest city developer of affordable housing in the country.
1. What is the purpose of describing the boiler room in the first paragraph?
[     ]
A. To explain the measures the city takes to care for poor people.
B. To suggest that affordable housing is possible in all areas.
C. To show how the environment-friendly building works.
D. To compare old and new boiler rooms.
2. What is an advantage of the buildings meeting the Green Communities Standards?
[     ]
A. Lower running costs.
B. Costing less in construction.
C. Less air to be lost in hot days.
D. Better prices for homeless people.
3. It can be learned from the text that, _____.
[     ]
A. New York City is seriously polluted
B. people"s daily life causes many carbon emissions in New York City
C. a great number of people in New York City don"t have houses to live in
D. some other cities have developed more affordable housing than New York City
4. What is the main purpose of this text?
[     ]
A. To call on people to pay more attention to housing problems.
B. To prove that some standards are needed for affordable housing.
C. To ask society to help homeless people and low-income families.
D. To introduce healthy, environmentally clever-and affordable housing.
阅读所给短文,并根据短文后题目的要求进行简答。(注意题后的字数要求)
     _____. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10
out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many
ways: education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the growing of America has made it a very different society,
one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages.
     A person"s age no longer tells you anything about his or her social position, marriage or health. There"s no
longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The
social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn"t as strong
as it used to be. It doesn"t surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother,
or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.
     Many people say, "I am much younger than my mother or my father was at my age." No one says, "Act
your age" any more. We"ve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.
1. What is mainly talked about in the passage? (Within 12 words)
    _____________________________________________________________________________
2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one? We no longer feel astonished when
    older people behave as young people.
    _____________________________________________________________________________
3. Fill in the blank with proper word to complete the sentence. (Within 6 words)
    _____________________________________________________________________________
4. What does "Act your age" mean?
    _____________________________________________________________________________
5. Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.

     How can you find out what is going on inside a person"s body without opening the patient up? Regular
X-rays can show a lot. CAT scans can show even more. They can give three-dimensional (三维) view of
body organs(器官).
     What is a CAT scan? CAT stands for Computerized Axial Tomography (层面X线照相术). It is a special
X-ray machine that gets a 360 - degree picture of a small area of a patient"s body.
     Doctors use X-rays to study and examine diseases and injuries within the body. X-rays can find foreign
objects inside the body or to take pictures of some organs inside if special things as dyes or special liquids
are added to the organs to be X-rayed.
     A CAT scanner, however, uses a beam (光束) of X-rays to give a cross-sectional view of a particular
part of the body. A fine beam of X-rays is scanned across the body and circled around the patient from many
different angles (角度). A computer analyzes (分析) the information from each angle and produces a clear
cross-sectional picture on the screen. This picture is then photographed for later use. Several cross-sections,
taken one after another, can give a clear "photo" of the entire body or of any body organs. The newest CAT
scanners can even give a clear picture of active, moving organs just as a fast-action camera can "stop the
action" giving clear pictures of what appear only mistily (模糊) to the eye. And because of the 360-degree
pictures, CAT scans show 3-dimensional views of organs in a manner that was once only seen during surgery
or autopsy (examining a dead body).
1. According to the first two paragraphs, doctors can see the inside of a patient"s body by _____.
[     ]
A. giving the patient an operation
B. checking body organs
C. getting a 360-degree picture of a small area of a patient"s body
D. examining the CAT
2. From the last paragraph, we can infer that _____.
[     ]
A. the newest pictures become more misty
B. many pictures can be taken at the same time
C. the information about the scanned patient is not highly valued
D. some pictures of the scanned parts of the body are developed for further examinations in the future
3. The best title of this passage might be _____.
[     ]
A. Modern X-ray
B. Three-dimensional View
C. Fast - moving Camera
D. CAT Scan
