【題目】A small piece of fish each day may keep the heart doctor away. That’s the finding of a study of Dutchmen in which deaths from heart disease were more than 50 percent lower among those who consumed (吃) at least an ounce of salt water fish per day compared to those who never ate fish.

The Dutch research is one of three human studies that give strong scientific support to the long-held belief that eating fish can provide health benefits, particularly to the heart.

Heart disease is the number-one killer in the United States, with more than 550,000 deaths occurring from heart attacks each year. But previous research has shown that the level of heart disease is lower in cultures that consume more fish than Americans do. There are fewer heart disease deaths, for example, among the Eskimos of Greenland, who consume about 14 ounces of fish a day, and among the Japanese, whose daily fish consumption averages more than 3 ounces.

For 20 years, the Dutch study followed 852 middle-aged men, 20 percent of whom ate no fish. At the start of the study, average fish consumption was about two-thirds of an ounce each day, with more men eating lean fish than fatty fish.

During the next two decades, 78 of the men died from heart disease. The fewest deaths were among the group who regularly ate fish, even at levels far lower than those of the Japanese or Eskimos. This relationship was true regardless of other factors such as age, high blood pressure, or blood cholesterol (膽固醇) levels.

【1】The passage is mainly about ________.

A. the effect of fish eating on people’s health

B. the high incidence of heart disease in some countries

C. the daily fish consumption of people in different culture

D. the changes in people’s diet

【2】We can infer from the passage that there are fewer heart disease deaths ________.

A. in the countries of the yellow-skin race

B. in the countries with good production of fish

C. in the countries with high consumption of fish

D. in highly-developed countries

【2】The underlined part “This relationship” may refer to the connection between ________ and the level of heart disease.

A. the amount of fish eaten

B. the kind of fish eaten

C. regular fish-eating

D. people of different areas

【4】In which section of a newspaper can we read this passage?

A. Ads. B. Movies.

C. Briefs. D. Health and Diet.

【題目】In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.

The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.

It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.

Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.

People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.

【2】. Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they ________.

A. want to be as rich as their neighbors

B. want to be happy

C. don’t want others to know they are rich

D. want others to know or to think that they are rich

【2】It can be inferred from the story that rich people like to _________.

A. live in New York City B. live outside New York City

C. live in apartments D. have many neighbors

【3】Arthur Momand used the name “Jones” in his series of short stories because “Jones” is _____.

A. an important name

B. a popular name in the United States

C. his neighbor’s name

D. not a good name

【4】 According to the writer, it is ________ to keep up with the Joneses.

A. impossible B. interesting

C. correct D. good

I can’t help but feel concerned in the destruction of tropical forests. It is one of the most serious environmental problems today.

From that I understand, people are cutting down thousands of square kilometres of tree every day. This is killing hundreds of wild animals that live in the forests.

Unfortunately, we did nothing but talk about it. We don’t do anything to protect the forests.

We need to stop people do it. There should be much strong laws. I think that people who cut down the forests should go to prison. That’s what happens in some countries to people who sell plastic bags. That’s what should happen to people who destroy the forests and kill wildlife.

I can’t help but think that we have no right to destroy the nature. We must protect wildlife for future generations. Hopefully, our children will be responsible than they are today.

There is distinction between reading for information and reading for understanding.【1】The first sense is the one in which we read newspapers, magazines, or anything else. 【2】Such materials may increase our store of information, but they cannot improve our understanding. And clearly we don’t have any difficulty in gaining the new information, for our understanding was equal to them before we started. Otherwise, we would have felt the shock of puzzlement.

The second sense is the one in which we read something that at first we do not completely understand. Here the thing to be read is at the first sight better or higher than the reader. The writer is communicating something that can increase the reader’s understanding.

Otherwise one person could never learn from another. Here “l(fā)earning” means understanding more, not remembering more information.

What are the conditions in this kind of reading? First, there is inequality in understanding.

【3】 Besides, his book must convey something he possesses and his potential readers lack. Second, the reader must be able to overcome this inequality in some degree. And he should always try to reach the same level of understanding with the writer. If the equality is approached, success of communication is achieved.

【4】It is the least demanding and requires the least amount of effort. Everyone who knows how to read can read for entertainment if he wants to. In fact, any book that can be read for understanding or information can probably be read for entertainment as well.

A. Thus, we can employ the word “reading” in two distinct senses.

B.Such communication between unequals must be possible.

C.We can get access to the content of those materials easily.

D.The writer must be “superior” to the reader in understanding.

E.The writer should have a better communicating skill.
