Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of human illness is related to food and forty percent of cancer is related to food as well. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, some researchers realized that things commonly used to keep color in meats and other food additives添加剂caused cancer. Yet, these additives remain in our food, and it is difficult to know which things on the wrappings包装of foods are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to their animals, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of cows. Sometimes similar things are supplied to animals not for their health, but just to make a profit. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to get a higher price on the market. Although some countries have tried to control such things, the practice continues.41. According to this passage, we can know . A. perhaps most of human illness is caused by what we eat B. perhaps most kinds of cancer are related to what people eat C. cancer was discovered in 1945 D. science has made food unfit to eat 42. Things that are used to keep colors in meats are . A. harmful B. useless C. helpless D. dangerous 43. All the additives . A. are bright and colorless B. are not bright and colorful C. have indirect effects on our health D. have direct effects on our health 44. Which of the following is not true? A. Some wrappings of food are harmful. B. Farmers try to make more money on the market by fattening their animals. C. “The practice continues means “things are still going on like that.D. We neednt take care of what we eat. BDoctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and even cancer. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Some burst with anger, and scream and yell (大叫). But others keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger. For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones . They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. In general the person feels excited and ready to act. Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, "Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably." Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.45. "Damaging emotion" means that _. A. the emotion is harmless B. the emotion is harmful C. the feeling is very strong D. the feeling is hard46. Expressing anger violently _ repressing it according to some scientists. A. is not as danger as B. is more harmful than C. is no better than D. is much better than47. According to the author, you'd better _ A. never be angry B. cool down your anger before you express it C. laugh and laugh when you get angry D. admit you are wrong when you are angry48. What is the passage mainly about? A. The types of anger. B. How to release anger. C. Causes of anger. D. The damage to health caused by being angry. CHave you ever suddenly felt that someone you know was in trouble and he was? Have you ever dreamed something that came true later? Maybe you have ESP (超感官知觉).ESP stands for Extra Sensory Perception. It may be called a sixth sense. It seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away. Here is an example. A woman was doing washing. Suddenly she screamed, “My father is dead! I saw him sitting in the chair! Just then, a telephone came. The womans father had died of a heart attack. He died sitting in a chair.There are thousands of stories like this on record. Scientists are studying them to find out what is behind these strange mental messages. Heres another exampleone of hundreds of dreams that have come true.A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage (马车) came by. The driver said, “Theres room for one more. The man felt the driver was dead, so he ran away. The next day the man was getting on a crowded bus. The bus driver said, “Theres room for one more. Then the man saw the drivers face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldnt get on the bus. As the bus drove off, it crashed and burst into flames. Everyone was killed!Some people say stories like these are lies or coincidences. Others, including some scientists say that ESP is true. From studies of ESP, we may someday learn more about the human mind.49ESP lets people know about _.Atheir dreamsBevents after they happenCevents before they happenDheart attacks50The example of the man shows the ability to _. Aavoid traffic accidents Bjudge the good and bad of a person Cknow the bus driver is not a good driver Dsense a danger that will actually happen later on51In this passage the underlined word “coincidences probably means _. Athings which do not happen Bthings which happen by accident without necessary connection Cthings which are only dreams Dthings dreamed of only by sick people52The best title of this passage is _.ASixth Sense BThe Human Mind CA Big Lie DA Terrible DreamD Some people s ears produce wax(蜡状物) like busy little bees. This can be a problem even though earwax appears to serve an important purpose. Experts say it protects and cleans the ear. It traps dirt and other matter and keeps insects out. Doctors think it might also help protect against infections. And the waxy oil keeps ears from getting too dry. So earwax is good. It even has a medical name: ceriman. And there are two kinds. Most people of European or African ancestry have the “wet kind: thick and sticky. East Asians commonly have “dry earwax. But you can have too much of a good thing. The glands(腺) in the ear canal that produce the wax make too much in some people. Earwax is normally expelled(排除); It falls out of the ear or gets washed away. But extra wax can harden and form a blockage that interferes with sound waves and reduces hearing. People can also cause a blockage when they try to clean out their ears, but only push the wax deeper inside. Earwax removal is sometimes necessary. But you have to use a safe method or you could do a lot of damage.53 Earwax can serve an important purpose because of all the following except_.A. some peoples ears produce wax B. it traps dirt and keeps insects outC. it also helps protect against infections D. it keeps ears from getting too dry54. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 4 mean?A. The more earwax, the better.B. You can have a good thing.C. Earwax is good, but too much is bad.D. You get too much from earwax.55. If you cant hear very clearly, maybe you have_.A. wet earwax B. extra earwax C. dry earwax D. dirty earwax56. The passage is mainly developed by_.A. analyzing cause B. making contrastsC. examining differences D. following the time ordersEIn today's world, we rely on computers as never before. They are used for everything from ordering a pizza to running hospitals and military defense systems. Banking and credit card information is stored and accessed by computers. So what happens when a computer gets infected with a virus? One effect is that people's access to their e-mail accounts is cut off. A more serious possible consequence is that billions of dollars could be lost. A virus is a computer program that copies itself onto other programs and infects them. Similar to an easily spread disease, a computer virus goes from computer to computer, either adding to or changing the tasks a program is designed to do. The first computer viruses were created in the mid '80s and had varying effects. Some caused files to be deleted, or made the letters on the screen appear to fall off. Others displayed a specific message once the computer was turned on. Viruses today are much more widespread and dangerous than ever before. Perhaps the m
