_3._ But in my opinion, young people should learn to do them as preparation for the future.

Teenagers should share the housework because learning how to do it will help them when they have you look after their own family in the future. _4._ But if they learn to do some basic housework when they are old enough to do it, they won’t be worried about doing the housework in their new grown-up life.

A recent study has shown that eating a small amount of dark chocolate every day could be good for your health. Scientists have found that a regular 2 ounces can help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of having a heart attack or stroke(中風)without any weight gain. But take care before you reach for a large bar. The effects are canceled out if more than 30 calories are taken into your body each day, the researchers warn.

It’s already known that a chemical called polyphenol(多酚), found in chocolate, can help reduce blood pressure, and blood pressure lowered in this way can reduce the risk of death from a stroke by 8 percent and from a heart attack by 5 percent, scientists declare. And it can also reduce the risk or death in general by 4 percent.

A daily diet with a little chocolate has the same effect with some special diets designed to lower blood pressure, according to one researcher. “Although all the degree of the blood pressure reduction is small, the effects are quite obvious,” the researchers said.

However, Sara Stanner, a nutritionist at the British Heart Foundation, is quite cautious. “This study suggests that small quantities of small chocolate might have good effects on blood pressure. However, it is important to remember that chocolate is also high in fat and calories. So eating much is not good for your heart.” “Polyphenols are also found in fruits and vegetables, which can be taken in without the risks associated with overintake,” she added.

But the German study shows that the fat content does not cancel out the good effects—at least where small amounts are concerned.

1.How is Paragraph 2 developed?

A. By making comparisons. B. By listing figures.

C. By analyzing causes. D. By giving examples.

2.What health benefits does dark chocolate have?

A. It lowers blood pressure heavily.

B. It may prevent heart attacks in a way.

C. It’s useful for controlling one’s weight.

D. It helps people strengthen their body.

3.What do Sara Stanner’s words suggest?

A. Eating chocolate has no health benefits.

B. Dark chocolate is not so nutritious as expected.

C. The findings of scientist’s study are not scientific.

D. Eating fruits and vegetables may be a better choice.

4.What will be discussed in the following passage?

A. Some details of the German study.

B. Benefits of fruits and vegetables.

C. Harm of overeating dark chocolate.

D. The proper amount of dark chocolate taken in.

Organic(有機的) farming is a type of agriculture that benefits from the recycling and use of natural products. Use of dried plants not only saves money, but also ensures the growth of crops. The technique is characterized(具有…的特征) by the use of green manure(肥料), biological pest control methods and special farming techniques to keep soil productive. Limiting the use of man?made chemicals or completely doing away with(去掉) them reduces the risk of diseases. Today, organic farming is a major and preferred industry around the world. Organically grown products have a huge market, with farmlands covering about 10% of the total world farmland.

Advantages of Organic Farming:

1.The economics of organic farming are characterized by increasing profits(利潤)through reduced water use and reduced soil erosion(侵蝕).

4.The use of green pesticides (殺蟲劑) is environmentally friendly and does no harm to human’s health.

Disadvantages of Organic Farming:

1. Organic methods of farming produce less, compared to traditional farming techniques.

2. Organic agriculture does little to fight global climate change. Though organic farming practices are recognized as giving out less CO2, but not to a significant degree.

The strong emphasis on educational achievement in China, Japan and other parts of South-East Asia may be coming at a heavy price. Researchers say that hard work at school plus the lack of exposure to outdoor light is damaging the eyes of almost nine out of ten students—with one in five at serious risk of visual impairment and blindness.

The scientists say that young people need up to three hours a day of outdoor light, but many infants are also missing out as they nap during lunch time. Dr. Ian Morgan is the lead author of the study. “I think what's happened in South-East Asia is that we've got a double whammy. We've got the massive educational pressures and we've got the construction of a child's day in a way that really minimises the amount of time they spend outside in bright light.”

The scientists say that genetic factors, long thought to play a big role in short-sightedness, are not as important as the environment. They point to Singapore as a place with several different racial groups, all of whom are now suffering high levels of short-sightedness.

The authors suggest that compulsory time outdoors should be considered by educational authorities across South-East Asia as a way of dealing with the problem.

1.What does the passage mainly talk about ?

A. Educational achievement in Asia.

B. Sight problems in South-East Asia.

C. Risk of visual impairment and blindness.

D. Massive educational pressures

2. What does the underlined part “a double whammy” refer to?

A. Many infants’ naps and massive educational pressures.

B. Hard work at school and the construction of a child's day.

C. Educational pressures and the lack of exposure to outdoor light.

D. Genetic factors and the minimised time spent outside in bright light.

3. By mentioning Singapore, the author intends to tell us that ________.

A. genetic factors play a big role in short-sightedness

B. it has several different racial groups

C. all Singaporeans are shortsighted now

D. the environment has greater effect on people’s eyes

4.The authors strongly believe that __________.

A. we should spend enough time outdoors

B. infants should not nap during lunch time

C. students should not work hard at school

D. educational authorities are to blame for short-sightedness
