You never played the video dance game? Now such games are used to help lose weight!
Like many other teenage boys, Jones loves sports. But at 5 feet, 175 pounds, he found his weight in trouble. His doctor wanted him to lose 50 pounds so that he may be a good football game player by the end of the summer.
Jones chose the popular Dance Revolution video game at home to increase his activity. He had lost about 10 pounds by changing his diet. Now, after two weeks' playing the game, he has lost another 10!
A health study is being done by an insurance company. The company hopes that the game will lead to better health and lower costs. “Obesity claims last year cost us $ 77 million. We have to cut those costs,” said a member of the insurance group. The company provides a game console (游戲主機(jī)), a dance mat and software for the six-month, $ 60,000 study.
The study is more than a commercial thing of an insurance company. It is widely supported by physical education and health professionals.
In West Virginia, 43% of the nearly 6,000 children examined for heart disease risk were considered over-weighted; more than 25% were too fat. “We are in a crisis of childhood obesity not only in West Virginia but in America,” said a researcher.
Researchers are now looking at the potential for improving effects by using the game. A teacher in West Virginia has been using the video games in her classes since last fall. She reported that the game does improve heart health as well as eye-hand coordination (協(xié)調(diào)能力), and her students take the video game as a great alternative to jumping rope or ball games.
The US Education Department is putting the game in 20 schools to control childhood obesity. Well, are you going to try such to dance away your extra weight?
（1）The underlined part is trying to tell us _____.
A.the study involves many insurance companies
B.the study is only an insurance company's business
C.the study is less important than the insurance company's money
D.it's not only the insurance company that is concerned about the study
（2）It can be inferred that _____.
A.the government thinks highly of the dance game
B.in West Virginia, more than 25 % of the adults were too fat
C.a teacher is a failure in using the video game in her classes
D.the US Education Department isn't interested in the game
（3）The most suitable title of the passage is _____.
A.Dance Away Your Weight
B.Play the Video Dance Game
C.Solve the Problem of Obesity
D.Cut the Cost of Obesity Claims

【答案】
（1）D
（2）A
（3）A
【解析】本文是一篇夾敘夾議文，講述了目前不僅在West Virginia而且在美國，有一個兒童肥胖危機(jī)。告戒人們超重會帶來心臟病。本文通過Jones的故事，可知玩視頻舞蹈游戲可以被用來幫助減肥。

⑴D推理判斷題。根據(jù)劃線部分下一句It is widely supported by physical education and health professionals. 它得到了體育和健康專業(yè)人士的廣泛支持.�？芍@項研究不僅僅是保險公司的商業(yè)活動。故選D。

⑵A推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句Now, after two weeks playing the game, he has lost another 10!玩游戲兩周后，他又減了10磅。從這里可知做游戲后可以減體重，故選A。

⑶A主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段Have you ever played the video dance game? Now such games are used to help lose weight!你有沒有玩過視頻舞蹈游戲？現(xiàn)在這種游戲被用來幫助減肥。所以最佳主題應(yīng)選A。

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
People born in winter are more likely to suffer mental health disorders, according to a recent study carried out by researchers at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee.
Researchers raised baby mice from birth to weaning (斷奶) in either “summer” light cycles of 16 hours of light and 8 hours of dark or “winter” cycles of 8 hours of light and 16 hours of dark. A third group experienced 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark a day.
Then half the winter mice stayed in a winter cycle, while half switched to a summer schedule. The summer mice were similarly split. The mice raised in equal periods of light and dark were split into three groups, one of which stayed on the 12hour schedule, one of which joined the winter group, and one of which joined the summer group.
After 28 days, it turns out the summerborn mice behaved the same whether they stayed on the summer cycle or switched to winter. But among the winterborn mice, those stayed in winter kept their previous schedule, while those that switched to summer stayed active for an extra hour and a half, which indicates that mice born and weaned in a winter light cycle showed dramatic disruptions（破壞） in their biological clocks.
The finding is the first of its kind in mammals, and it could explain why people born in winter are at higher risk for mental health disorders.
“We know that the biological clock regulates(管理) mood in humans,” said study researcher McMahon. “If the mechanism (機(jī)制) similar to the one that we found in mice operates in humans, then it could not only have an effect on a number of behavioral disorders, but also have a more general effect on personality.”
（1）How many groups of mice are there finally in all in the experiment?
A.Four.
B.Five.
C.Six.
D.Seven.
（2）What's the main idea of the text?
A.The biological clock regulates mood in humans.
B.People born in winter are at higher risk for physical health disorders.
C.Being born in winter has a negative effect on people's mental health.
D.The length of light will influence the behavior of the mice.
（3）The underlined word “split”(Paragraph 3) can be replaced by ________.
A.divided
B.torn
C.hit
D.ended
（4）Who is probably the reader of the passage?
A.A jobhunter.
B.A student in the university.
C.A newlymarried couple.
D.An experienced dentist.

【題目】There is no doubt that going without sleep for too long makes us feel terrible, and that getting a good night’s sleep can make us feel ready to take on the world. 【1】 Here are some top tips on getting the most out of the night.

【2】 You’d better avoid eating any food three hours before bed, as it will lower your blood sugar during sleep and help minimize damage from too much sugar floating around.

Keep your bedroom dark. To get a good night’s sleep, you need a bedroom that is pleasant, inviting and welcoming. 【3】 This is because the all important sleep-inducing (催眠) hormone melatonin is extremely sensitive to light, and may not be produced optimally (最佳的) unless it’s completely dark.

【4】 The foundation of good sleep is a comfortable bed. The right mattress (床墊) can make the difference between a refreshing night’s sleep and poor quality sleep resulting in tiredness and fatigue.

Get into a relaxed state. 【5】 Both of them will help to take the mind off the daytime pressures.

Since the start of the 21st century, studies have linked a lack of sleep to many diseases, such as diabetes and obesity. Taking action now will lead to long-term benefits for you.

A. Take a bath or listen to soft music.

B. Never eat too much before bedtime.

C. Above all, it should be dark.

D. Healthy people value a good night’s sleep.

Last Christmas, the circus owner, Jimmy Gates, (decide) to take some presents to a children's hospital. Dressed up Father Christmas and accompanied by a 'guard of honour' of six pretty girls, he set off down the main street of the city (ride) a baby elephant called Jumbo. He should have known that the police would never allow this sort of thing. A policeman approached Jimmy told him he ought to have gone along a side street as Jumbo was holding the traffic. Jimmy agreed to go at once, Jumbo refused to move. Fifteen policemen had to push very hard (get) him off the main street. The police had difficult time, but they were most amused. 'Jumbo must weigh a few tons,' said a policeman afterwards, 'so was fortunate that we didn't have to carry him. Of course, we should arrest him, as he has a good record, we shall let him off this time.'

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career.
I wasn't an excellent student because I didn't do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn't have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn't the type to have a career.
I then found myself a job — looking after two little girls. It wasn't too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she'd give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it didn't often work out. I was getting extremely tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the children.
One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification（資格證書）if I wanted to work with children. I didn't think I would be accepted because I didn't take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part-time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.
Now I've got a full-time job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren't top of the class at school.

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容, 從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
As a child grows out of being an infant and begins to notice and react to the world around him, you may find yourself wondering how you possibly impart all of the things that he needs to become a responsible, respectful adult. A child who learns to respect all he meets not only receives respect from others, but also learns to respect himself as well.
●Show your child respect. This is perhaps the best way to teach your child how to respect others. Listen to your child by giving him your full attention and he will learn to listen to you, understanding how important this is in communication.
● The more you say “please” and “thank you” to your child, the more likely he will learn to use them with you and others. Politeness then becomes a normal part of any conversation.
●Agree to disagree. Explain your decision so that he will understand your reasoning and expect respectful responses. Disagreeing with you doesn't equate to disobedience.
●Control your impulse to overact. When a situation arises between you and your child that requires calmness, keep in mind that you are supposed to be modeling correct behavior.
●Praise, praise, praise! So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how to correct it that the accomplishments are not celebrated enough.
A．Teach manners by using polite requests and responses.
B．Try to remember that a child won't always agree with you.
C．Respect is necessary for a meaningful and successful life.
D．If he sees you lose temper, he is more likely to respond that way in future.
E．A child may act like he pleases, but will respect being given limits.
F．When you see your child exhibit respectful behavior, make sure he knows just how proud you are of him.
G．Setting a good example is the best way to start a child on the path to respect.
