For thousands of years，we have looked for ways to measure time. Early humans found that the regular movements of the sun，the earth，the moon，and the stars made good ways to measure time. The rising and setting of the sun were used to distinguish day from night.

But，eventually，people needed to tell time more accurately，or exactly. So，by using the sun’s position in the sky，they divided the day into dawn，morning，midday and evening.

Then it was noted that the sun cast a changing shadow as it moved across the sky. Time could be told more accurately by setting up a stick and marking the positions of the sun’s shadow. It was the ancient Greeks who divided each position of this “sundial(日晷)” into hours.

But the sun doesn’t always shine. So，for the past 6,000 years，many other ways of keeping time have been tried. Slow?burning candles were divided into hours，and the hourglass was invented. When all the sand in the top of an hourglass has shifted to the bottom，an hour has passed.

Later，the pendulum(擺鐘)，with its regular back?and?forth movement of weights，was used to move the hands on a clock. Pendulums are still used in grandfather clocks.

Today，even more accurate clocks are in use，such as battery?operated quartz clocks（石英鐘），digital clocks，and clocks run by electrical tuning forks and tiny atoms. These atomic clocks are the most accurate clocks ever invented. The exact time can be kept to within 1 second a century.

1.Humans in the old days used ________ to tell day from night.

A．the rising and setting of the sun

B．battery?operated quartz clocks

C．a(chǎn)tomic clocks

D．digital clocks

2.A sundial works by ________.

A．tracking the movement of the stars around the sun

B．marking a shadow cast by the moving sun

C．burning candles in the sunlight

D．watching the stars

3.Which of the following was NOT used in the past to measure time?

A．An hourglass. B．A sundial.

C．Digital clocks. D．A pendulum.

4.Which of the following ways of measuring time is ordered from the least accurate to the most accurate?

A．Sundial，pendulum，sun.

B．Atomic clock，quartz clock，sundial.

C．Sun，pendulum，atomic clock.

D．Digital clock，hourglass，slow?burning candles.

Being lonely in the crowd might seem ridiculous. But according to a recent survey, the situation is all too common. Loneliness and other anxiety problems – worrying about life’s pressures – can even lead to self-murder.

An article in China Daily gave no reason for this other than the usual blaming of the post-80s generation. According to a high level official, young people suffering from discouragement are mostly “spoiled and have not been taught to be independent, responsible and express ‘thank-you’.” Well, how do you like that? First, I don’t think China’s youth are exactly spoiled. They certainly have more things than their parents did, but a lot of the money spent on them is for their education including various extra classes.

Discouragement and anxiety are now the fastest growing challenges in modern societies. We sense a lack of close friends who can talk to honestly and openly. In 1985, a US study found that one in ten people did not have such a friend. In 2006, it was one in four. It’s easy to see the connection between loneliness and discouragement. But what actually causes this increasing loneliness?

Surely, with Internet social networking sites such as Kaixin, we have more friends than ever. A new study has shown that the more time teenagers spend in front of computers, the less close they are to friends and family. Kaixin or QQ may be fun but it lacks meaning, compared to personal connections in the real world.

And then there are those endless online games popular with young Chinese but increasingly there are more interesting choices. For example, new sports such as skateboarding are starting to catch on（流行） in bigger cities, as is playing music in a band. These creative hobbies are done in a group and thus friendship can be stronger. Hopefully young people will also be drawn out of the Internet cafes and interactive computer games that in fact fail to recreate a real and interactive experience.

1.According to the high level official, it is easy for teenagers lacking independence and responsibility to _______.

A. become spoiled

B. play endless online games

C. suffer from loneliness and anxiety

D. refuse to express gratitude

2.What does the writer think of the Internet social networking site Kaixin?

A. Open but ridiculous.

B. Honest and responsible.

C. Real and fun.

D. Interesting but meaningless.

3.It can be inferred in Paragraph 3 that _______.

A. it’s now more difficult for people to find close friends to have an honest chat with

B. parents focus mostly on children’s education rather than the personality building

C. young people have no idea of expressing appreciation because of being spoiled

D. teenagers will recreate a real and interactive experience to strengthen friendship

4.According to the text, which of the following can help us avoid being lonely in the crowd?

A. To stay long in Internet cafes.

B. To focus on extra courses.

C. To give up our own hobbies.

D. To play music in a band.

Wilma Subra had no intention of becoming a public speaker. After graduating from college with degrees in chemistry and microbiology, she went to work at Gulf South Research Institute in Louisiana.

As part of her job, she conducted field research on toxic (poisonous) substances in the environment, often in minority communities located near large industrial polluters. She found many families were being exposed to high, sometimes deadly levels of chemicals and other toxic substances. But she was not allowed to make her information public.

Frustrated by these restrictions, Subra left her job in 1981, created her own company and has devoted the past two decades to helping people fight back against giant industrial polluters. She works with families and community groups to conduct environmental tests, interpret test results, and organize for change.

Because of her efforts, dozens of toxic sites across the country have been cleaned up. And one chemical industry spokesperson calls her “a_top_gun” for the environmental movement.

How has Subra achieved all this? Partly through her scientific training.Partly through her commitment to environmental justice. But just as important is her ability to communicate with people through public speaking. “Public speaking，” she says, “is the primary vehicle I use for reaching people.”

If you had asked Subra before 1981 “Do you see yourself as a major public speaker？”， she would have laughed at the idea. Yet today she gives more than one hundred presentations a year. Along the way, she’s lectured at Harvard, testified before Congress, and addressed audiences in 40 states, as well as in Mexico, Canada, and Japan.

1.What did Wilma Subra study for her job before 1981?

A. Chemistry and microbiology.

B. Families affected by toxic chemicals.

C. Toxic substances in the environment.

D. Minority communities near industrial polluters.

2.Why did Wilma Subra quit her job in 1981?

A. She wanted to create her own company.

B. She preferred freedom to restrictions.

C. She hoped to work with families and communities.

D. She was forbidden to inform the public of toxic pollution.

3.Wilma Subra is called “a top gun” in the 4th paragraph for ________．

A. her scientific training

B. her efforts to fight against pollution

C. her help in closing down dozens of toxic sites

D. her strong belief in environmental justice

4.What does Wilma Subra think of “public speaking”？

A. She values it. B. She laughs at it.

Many people turn to doctors or self-help books, but they forget a great thing that could help them fight illness: their friends.

Researchers are only now starting to pay attention to the importance of friendship in health. A 10-year Australian study found that older people with a large circle of friends were 22 percent less likely to die during the study period than those with fewer friends. A large 2007 study showed an increase of nearly 60 percent in the danger for obesity among people whose friends gained weight. And last year, Harvard researchers reported that strong social ties(關(guān)系) could improve brain health as we age.

"In general, the role of friendship in our lives isn’t well realized, " said Rebecca, a professor at the University of North Carolina. "Friendship has a bigger effect on our psychological (心理的) health than family relationships. "

While many friendship studies are about the close relationships of women, some research shows that it can do good to men too. In a six-year study of 736 middle-aged men, having friendships reduces the risk of heart disease. Only smoking was as important a danger factor (因素) as having little social support.

The exact reason why friendship has such a big effect isn’t clear. While friends can send a sick person to the hospital or pick up medicine, the advantages go well beyond physical help. Friendship clearly has a big psychological effect."People with stronger friendships feel like there is someone they can turn to, " said Karen, a doctor. "The message of these studies is that friends make your life better. "

1.The three studies in paragraph 2 show that _____.

A. old people need friends the most

B. friends can help us lose weight

C. social ties have something to do with health

D. having more friends makes us healthier

2.What do Rebecca’s words in paragraph3 mean?

A. Friendship is more important to women than to men.

B. What people need most is a friend’s care.

C. Friendship is more important than family relationship

D. The value of friendship hasn’t been fully understood.

3.The author mentioned smoking in the text to discuss ________.

A. the cause of heart attack

B. the danger of having no friends

C. smoking is bad for men

D. Friends’ influence on habits

4. Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word "obesity "?

A. fatness B. unhappiness

C. excitement D. Health
