her problem.“Im not at all surprised.”he said,“I know what your problem is.”He examined her and then gave her some advice.“If you dont do what I say,Mrs.Parker,”he said,“You will have a heartattack(心脏病发作).It could kill you.”Ellen was very worried as she left the doctors.She knew that she had totake his advice but that it would not be easy and it would take time.The next day she went shopping.The first shop she went into was a butchershop(肉铺).“Id like ten pounds of steak(牛排),please.”she said.“Certainly,madam.”the butcher replied and went into the cold room and founda large piece of steak.He brought the huge piece of meat back into the shop and placedit on the scale(称).“Thats just ten pounds.”he said.“Thats big enough.”Mrs.Parker said.The butcher worked out the price.“At$4.99 a pound that will be$,please.Would you like me to cut it up intosmaller pieces for you”“Oh,I dont want to buy the meat.”Mrs.Parker said.“If you dont want to buy it,”the butcher replied angrily,“Why did youask me to get it for you”“My doctor told me that I am too heavy and have to lose ten pounds.I wantedto see what ten pounds of meat looked like.”21.Why did Ellen Parker visit the doctor？22.had a

less worry after they reach the age of fifty.In fact,they say by the age of eighty-five,people are happier with their life than they werewhen they were eighteen years old.The findings came from a survey of more than three hundred forty thousand adultsin the United States.The Gallup Organization questioned them by telephone in 2008.At that time,the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.Theresearchers asked questions about emotions like happiness,sadness and worry.Theyalso asked about mental or emotional stress.Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony BrookUniversity in New York led the study.His team found that levels of stress were highestamong adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five.The findings showed thatstress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.The study also showed that men and women have similar feeling patterns as theygrow older.However,women at all ages reported more sadness,stress and worry thanmen.Researchers say theydo not knowwhy happiness increases as people get older.Onetheory is that,as people grow older,they grow older,they grow more thankful forwhat they have and have better control of their feelings.They also spend less timethinking about bad experiences.Professor Stone says the emotional patterns could be linked to changes in how peoplesee the world,or maybe even changes in brain chemistry.The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children,being unemployed or being single.But they found that influences like these did notaffect the levels of happiness and well-being related to age.to the survey of The Gallup Organization people are most likely to become happier_.they are between ages of 18 and 85 they come to their old age they are in their twenties they are eighteen years old to Arthur Stone,old people _.a positive attitude toward their life control their behaviors better about good things every day earned a large amount of money the last paragraph we can know that _.must be worried if you have young children has nothing to do with your age can be happy even if you are still single depends on your family and job of the following would be the best title for this passage older means getting happier young are happier than the old younger,the happier are easier to happy in lifeC CThe African elephant,the largest land animal remaining on earth,is of greatimportance to African ecosystem(生态系统).Unlike other animals,the African elephantis to a great extent the builder of its environment.As a big plant-eater,it largelyshapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原)surroundings in which it lives,thereforesetting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in itshabitat(栖息地).It is the elephants great desire for food that makes it a disturber of theenvironment and an important builder of its habitat.In its continuous search forthe 300 pounds of plants it must have every day,it kills small trees and underbushes,and pulls branches off big trees.This results in numerous open spaces in both deeptropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas.Inthese open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract avariety of other plant-eaters.Take the rain forests for example.In their natural state,the spreadingbranches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forestfloor.By pulling down trees and eating plants,elephants make open spaces,allowingnew plants to grow on the forest floor.In such situations,the forests become suitablefor large hoofed plant-eaters tomove around and forsmall plant-eaters to get theirfood as well.What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become anendangered species.If the elephant disappears,scientists say,many other animalswill also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna,greatly changing andworsening the whole ecosystem.is the passage mainly about of African elephants.and savannas as habitats for African elephants.effect of African elephants search for food.eating habit of African elephants.does the underlined phrase“setting the terms”most probably mean the time.the state.the quality.the conditions.do we know about the open spaces in the passage result from the destruction of rain forests.provide food mainly for African elephants.are home to many endangered animals.are attractive to plant-eating animals of different kinds.passage is developed mainly by _.the effect and then explaining the causes out similarities and

couldbe funny to a one-year-old baby.I could sense the safety he felt.However,my home life is completely different from the scene that greetsme each morning at work.As a lawyer at Eastlake Juvenile Court(少年法庭),I alwayssee kids that society has labeled the worst of the worst,the“thief”,the“robber”,the list goes on.But they are still children.As I sit across from them,I have achance to talk to them about their lives,their homes,and their dreams.I sit throughtears,I sit through anger,but mostly I sit through hurt.I see their parents,mostof whom sit in the hallways day after day wanting to take their kids home.I alsosee mothers and fathers that come to the court ready to walk away from their childrenforever.Each day I see hope destroyed.I have come to realize that these children are our future,even if wedont want to admit it.They also want to sleep on a mothers shoulder at night,they also had dreams and smiled in their sleep when they were babies.But then somethingterrible happened,which robbed(剥夺)them of that youth,that hope,and that joy.I hope one day we can find how to put back the destroyed childhoods and ruined lives.Every day when I go home,I hold my children tightly in my arms and say“I love you”over and over again.And as I am filled with hope,I cannot forgetthose children I leave behind.I live in two worlds,one of promise,one of tragedy.No matter what they are accused(指控)of,what crimes(罪行)they have carried outand what society thinks of them,they are children,they are our children and ourfuture.underlined word“labeled”in Paragraph 2 can best be
