18、me for four-year-old Steves lack of interest in his dolls, cars and stuffed (packed) animals. Each morning he tips out three washing baskets of toys all over his floor, listlessly pulls out something and shortly after is standing at his mothers desk or following her into the kitchen saying: “Mummy,

19、I am bored.A family therapist (心理醫(yī)生) explains why children lose interest when they have a whole toy shop at home: According to their brain development, little children are not in a position to judge the quality of a variety of things at once. There is always just one favorite toy for the moment. All

20、 the rest is left lying about. What can parents do to stop their children from being oversupplied with toys? Under no conditions simply make something disappear without the childs knowledge. If he/she takes no more notice of a toy, a parent can ask if it can be stored or given away. Be warned though

21、 the child will always say he/she wants it then! A talk with relatives and friends may also help. Lyn is the mother of four-year-old Jessie, and we like her way. A small set of shelves in her childs room holds the toys and books that are the current (at present) favorites. When it seems to her that

22、her daughter is tired of these toys, they put them away in a box together and select some other toys from a cupboard in another room. The box of old toys goes into the cupboard. When her child says she is bored, they also get something from her cupboard - it may be something she has had for some tim

23、e but because she hasnt seen it for a while it is almost like a new toy.Some favorite toys stay out all the time, and there is collection of dolls which sits in the comer, but in this way Lyn has found that she has fewer toys to put away at the end of the day and her daughter always has something fr

27、 good look at the things you have. It is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kitchen a washing machine and a microwave oven. Your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need. You almost certainly own a car and possibly

28、a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.Now, perhaps, more than ever before, people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the lo

29、ng-hours work culture to make more money to buy more things is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or pastimes. Many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them.Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year. O

30、ne couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank. They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs(郊區(qū)), leaving their two children with a nanny（保姆）. Most evenings

31、 Daniel wouldnt get home until eight or nine oclock, and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for meetings. They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales. “I always wanted to have a farm h

32、ere,” says Daniel, “and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. Its taken some getting used to, but its been worth it. We have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think its made us stronger as a family, and the childr

33、en are a lot happier.”Liz, however, is not quite sure. “I used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long hours. Im not really a country girl, but I suppose Im gradually getting used to looking after the animals. One thing I do like, though, is being able to see more of my children. My a

34、dvice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all.”5What do the first two paragraphs tell us?APeople seldom work long hours to make money.BPeople hardly buy more things than necessary.CPeople are sure everything they own is in the right pla

35、ce.DPeople realise there is more to life than just making money.6Daniel and Liz both agree that the move to the farm .Awas easy to organiseBhas improved family lifeCwas extremely expensiveDhas been a total success7What does the underlined “it” in the last paragraph refer to?AChild-caring.BLizs advic

37、t 20 elements necessary for good health. It is present in the body in a very small amount, but it makes it possible for important chemical actions to be carried out in cells. Scientists are just beginning to discover how zinc and other elements work.Researchers first studied zinc as a way to speed r

38、ecovery. Dr. Waltor Powys, formerly with the United States Air Force, noted that the laboratory animals recovered faster when some matters were added to their food. One of these matters was zinc. Dr. Powys later tested the zinc treatment on an American airman recovering from medical operations. The

39、airman who received zinc sulphate (硫酸鹽) recovered in half of the usual time. Other doctors studied persons who had a number of strange disorders. The doctors learned that all of these problems were caused by lack of zinc in the body. They treated these disorders successfully by giving the patients z

40、inc sulphate.The amount of zinc in the body can be found by examining blood and hair. A lack of this important element is not uncommon among people in both industrial and developing countries. Zinc is found in most high protein (蛋白質(zhì)) foods, such as meat milk, fish and eggs. It is also found in whole

41、 grains. But many people do not eat enough of these foods. Food markets should add these elements so that more people could get needed amount of these necessary matters.9.Which of the following statements is true?A.Scientists found how zinc works a long time ago.B.People need a large amount of zinc

42、to be healthy.C.Zinc allows important chemical actions to take place in cells.D.Zinc must be used in the course of medical operation.10.One of the results from the study of zinc is that _.A.theres only a little zinc in the human bodyB.food rich in protein contains more zincC.some physical problems a

43、re caused by lack of zincD.any patient who receives zinc sulphate gets well immediately11.The best title for the passage may be _.A.A New Discovery B. Zinc and HealthC.How Zinc Works D. Add Zinc to Your Food DIn October, 1961. at Crowley Field in Cincinnati, Ohio, an old, deaf gentleman named Willia

44、m E Hey stood up to throw the first ball of the World Series. Most people at Crowley Field on that day probably did not remember Hoy because he had retired (退休) from professional baseball 58 years earlier, in 1903. However, he had been an outstanding player and the deaf people still talk about him a

45、nd his years in baseball.William E. Hoy was horn in Houckstown, Ohio, on May 23, 1862. He became deaf when he was two years old. He attended the Columbus Ohio School for the deaf. After graduation, he started playing baseball while working as a shoemaker.Hoy began playing professional baseball in 18

46、86 for Oshkosh (Wisconsin) of the Northwestern League. In 1888, he started as an outfielder (外場手) with the old Washington Senators. His small figure and speed made him an outstanding base runner. He was very good at stealing bases during his career. In the 1888 major league season, he stole 82 bases

47、. He was also the Senators leading hitter in 1888. Hoy was clever; he threw right-handed and batted left-handed. On June 19, 1889, he threw out three batters (擊球手) at the plate from his outfield position.The arm signals used by judges today to show balls and strikes began because of Hoy. The judge l

48、ifted his right arm to show that the pitch was a strike, and his left arm to signal that it was a ball.For many years, people talked about Hoys last ball game in 1903. He was playing for Los Angeles of the Pacific Coast Winter League. It was a memorable game because Hoy made a wonderful play which w

49、on the game. It was a very foggy night and, therefore, very hard to see the ball. In the ninth inning (棒球的一局), with two men out, Hoy managed to catch a fly ball to make the third out in spite of the fog. Ms Angeles defeated their opposition and won the game.After he retired, Hoy stayed busy. He ran

50、a dairy farm near Cincinnati for 20 years. He also became a public speaker and traveled giving speeches. Until a few years before his death, he took 4 and 10 mile walks several mornings a week. On December 15, 1961, William Hoy died at the age of 9912. In which order did the following things happen

51、in Hoys life?a.Hoy worked as a shoemaker.b.Hoy began to run a diary farm.c.Hoy played a memorable game in the heavy fog.d.Hoy threw the first ball of the World Series.e.Hoy became deaf.A.d, e, a, c, b B. e, a, C. b, dC.d, a, e, c, b D. e. a, b, c, d13.

54、yer.EAmericans are proud of their variety and individuality (個性), yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of a lift operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?Among the arguments for uniforms, one of th

55、e first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian (百姓的) clothes. People have become conditioned to expect higher quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears a uniform is likely to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian cl

56、othes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a hairdresser, or a waiter to lose professional identity (職業(yè)身份) than to step out of uniform?Uniforms also have many practical good points. They are often more comfortable and

57、more lasting than civilian clothes.Primary among the argument against uniforms is their lack of variety and the loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until

58、 retirement. When people look alike, they are likely to think, speak, and act similarly on the job at least.Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to

59、maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.16.What surprises us is that Americans _.A.still judge a man by his clothesB.think highly of uniformsC.less prefer wearing civilian clothesD.respect a lift operator in uniform17

60、.People are likely to think that a man in uniform _.A.suggests quality workB.shows his social positionC.appears to he more practicalD.looks more fresh and attractive18.Those who are against uniforms believe that people wearing uniforms _.A. are usually helpfulB. have little freedomC.lose personal ch
