In the Caucasus(高加索) region of the Soviet Union, nearly 50 out of every 100 000 people live to celebrate their 100th birthday, and many don’t stop at 100!By comparison, in American only 3 people out of 10 000 reach 100.But these Soviet old people aren’t alone. The Pakistani Hunzas, who live in the Himalaya Mountains and the Uilcabambans of the Andes Mountains in Ecuador, seem to share the secret of long life, too. These peoples remain healthy in body and spirit despite the passage of time. While many elder persons in industrial societies become weak and ill in their 60s and 70s,some Georgians, aged 110 to 140,work in the fields beside their great great grand children. Even the idea of aging is foreign to them, when asked, “at what age does youth end?” most of these old people had no answer. Several replied, “well, perhaps at 80”, the very youngest estimate was age 60.

What accounts for this ability to survive to such old age, and to survive so well? First of all, hard physical work is a way of life for all these long lived people. They begin their long days of physical labor as children and never seem to stop.

All these people get healthful rewards from the environment in which they work. They all come from mountains regions. This reduced oxygen environment makes the heart and blood vessel system stronger.

Another factor that may contribute to the good health `of these people is their isolation（隔絕）.To a great extent, they are separated from the pressures and worries of industrial society. Inherited（遺傳）factors also play some role.

1.Why does the writer mention some long lived people in the first paragraph?

A.To surprise his readers.

B.To introduce the subject of the article.

C.To tell you the difference between people in the Soviet Union and America.

D.To tell you why Americans don’t live as long as other people.

2.How many factors that contribute to long life of the people are mentioned in the article?

A.One.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  B.Two.

C.Three.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　    D.Four.

3.Whom does the underlined word “They” refer to in Paragraph 2?

A.Old people in the Soviet Union.

B.The Pakistani Hunzas.

C.All of the long lived people.

D.Some Georgians.

4.From the writer’s viewpoint, industrial society _____________.

A.is highly developed and beneficial to people

B.is a great advance in human history

C.is full of pressures and therefore bad for people’s health

D.should be replaced by isolated environment because it is bad for people’s health

5.Which of the following is true according to the article?

A.It is beneficial for people to be isolated.

B.People should learn to relax themselves from high pressures of life in industrial society.

C.The more hard physical work you do, the more healthy you will be.

D.The more remote areas you live in, the more healthy you will be.

科目：高中英語 來源：2013屆福建省高二下學(xué)期期末模塊測試英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Grandfather was an elder Cherokee Native American who had a wrinkled, nut brown face and kind dark eyes．His grandson often came in the evening to sit on his knee and asked the many questions that children asked．

One day the grandson came to his grandfather with a look of anger on his face and the following story．"Father and I went to the store today and because I helped him, he bought me a present, a jack-knife．I went outside to wait for father and to admire my new knife in the sunlight．Some town boys came by and saw me．They surrounded me and started saying bad things．They called me dirty and stupid and said that I should not have such a fine knife．The largest of these boys pushed me back and I fell over one of the other boys．I dropped my knife and one of them picked it up and they all ran away laughing．I hate them．I hate them all．”

The elder Cherokee, with eyes that had seen too much, lifted his grandson's face so his eyes looked into the boy's face．Grandfather said, " Let me tell you a story．I, too, at times, have felt a great hate for those who have taken so much with no sorrow for what they do．But hate wears you down and does not hurt your enemy．It is like drinking poison and wishing your enemy would die．I have struggled with these feelings many times．It is as if two wolves are inside me．．．It is a terrible fight．

One wolf is good and does no harm．He lives in harmony with all around him and does not take offense (冒犯) when no offense is intended．It will only fight when it is right to do so and in the right way．This wolf stands for joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, modesty, kindness, friendship, sympathy, generosity, truth and faith．

The other wolf is full of anger．The smallest thing will set off his fiercest temper．He fights everyone, all the time, for no reason．He cannot think because his anger and hate are so much．

It is helpless anger, for his anger will change nothing．This wolf represents fear, envy, greed, self-pity, guilt, lies, false pride and superiority．

Sometimes, it is hard to live with these two wolves inside me for both of them try to control my mind．This same fight is going on inside you and inside every other person too．"

The boy looked into his grandfather's eyes and asked, "Which wolf will win?" The old Cherokee simply replied ．．．

     "The one you feed．"

1.The boy was angry because ______.

     A．he was not satisfied with his present

     B．his back was badly injured in a fight

     C．he had waited for his father for too long

     D．his jack-knife had been taken away by some boys

2.The angry wolf would probably be described as ______.

     A．a(chǎn)ggressive(好斗)      B．sympathetic     C．modest      D．unsuccessful

3.We can learn from the third paragraph that ______.

     A．"hate" is healthy                   B．"hate" hurts oneself

     C．"hate" is complicated            D．"hate" harms one's enemies

4.What did Grandfather mean by saying "The one you feed" in the last paragraph?

     A．We should feed the two wolves equally．

     B．Living in harmony with others is important．

     C．Our feelings should be expressed at the right time．

     D．The choices we make determine who we will become．
