Almost half of us live in a city these days, and that number keeps going up. Want to be healthy? Try to make the best use of your city.

Walk the Walk: We know city people usually walk more than country people. But you'd be surprised at how much those extra 15 to 30 minutes of walking can do you good.  

Get Arty: Cultural attractions is something most cities are rich in. So if you’re in the city, refuse the pricy bar and club. Your brain will thank you if you choose from one of the countless museums, theatres, art galleries and historical sites (古跡).

Meet the Neighbors: Studies show that strong social networks do good to peoples health. A big city is a great place to find people you talk with. It is more likely you’ll find someone who shares your interests. So go out, make some friends and have fun.

Fresh and Fit: Popular health-food stores show up first in the big city. Healthy choices are probably richer than they are in the country. Just remember to take advantage of them.

47. How many ways does the writer advise us to be healthy in the city?

  A. Two.                         B. Four.                        C. Six.                         D. Eight.

48. It’s good for your brain when you choose_______.

When Oakland High School in California moved into a new building, the students and teachers noticed a strong smell. Then almost half of the students began to have a headache and a cough. Experts (專家) came to find the cause of the sickness. Finally, they discovered that the air in the building was not safe to breathe. They were surprised to find out that the desks and chairs in the school library caused the trouble. These desks and chairs were made of particleboards(合成板). This kind of board is cheap. It is made of very small pieces of wood held together with a chemical (化學(xué)物質(zhì)). This is just one example of a modern problem that is most common in cities—indoor air pollution(污染).

科目：初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2013-2014學(xué)年江蘇省無(wú)錫市九年級(jí)上學(xué)期期末考試英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Oil is so important that it is sometimes called “black gold”. Almost half of our energy comes from oil. We use it to run our cars and factories and to heat our homes, offices and schools. Many everyday things are made from oil. Your shirt may have oil in the material. The soap you wash your hands with might also be made from oil. Your favorite plastic toy is made from oil.     

Oil is hard to find, because it is trapped deep under the earth. Once the only way people knew there was oil someplace if it leaked（滲漏）out of the ground. Today, however, we have many ways of finding oil. One tool measures（測(cè)量）the pull of gravity. Places where gravity is weaker are more likely to have oil. Another tool is sound waves（聲波）. Sound waves travel through different kinds of rocks at different speeds. We can use them to find the rocks that have oil in them.     

We need a lot of oil, and we are using up the oil wells we know about. Soon we must find new ways of looking for this “black gold”.

1.Which of the following isn’t the way to help find oil?

A. Sound waves travel through different kinds of rocks at different speeds.

B. People measure the pull of gravity to know if there is oil.

C. Sound waves tell us where the oil has leaked out of the ground.

D. People know there is oil if it leaks out of the ground.

2.Which of the following does the passage lead you to believe?

A. Oil was firstly found by measuring gravity.

B. Many things are made from oil.

C. We will never run out of oil.

D. Our lives would not be different if we didn’t have oil.

3.The main idea of the whole story is that ________________.

A. many things are made from oil               

B. we must find new ways of looking for oil

C. people spend a lot of time looking for oil

D. oil is important for us but hard to find
