Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark youranswers on the ANSWER SHEET. （40 points）Text 1It has become a certain belief among the publicdrink at least eight glasses of water a day to improve health and wellbeing.Bottled water companies often repeal it to increase their sales but it is actually a silly idea. There is no evidence to prove the advantages of drinking eight glasses of water a day, scientists say.The misunderstanding is caused from the suggestion that adults should drink 2.5 liters of water daily, which was stressed by the British Medical Journal in December. The important part of the suggestion that most of this quantity of water is contained in prepared foods, however, is usually ignored.US researchers who reviewed the evidence concluded that most people do not need to worry about the amount of water they drink every .day. Besides drinking water, they will be getting plenty of liquid （液体）in other ways. Caffeinated drinks such as tea, coffee and cola and alcohol （酒）can help reach the daily total if they don't drink too much, though these drinks help the production of urine （尿）.Less well known arc the dangers of drinking too much water, causing water poisoning, low salt levels and even death.The review of research by Dan Negoianu, from the University of Pennsylvania, found that not a single study included the suggestion of drinking eight glasses of water a day. Although one small study suggested that drinking water could result in fewer headaches, the results were not very important. However, the benefits of drinking some water to prevent a pain in head after drinking too much alcohol are, separately, proved to be true.No studies showed any advantages to the color of the skin because of the increased water taken into bodies. Dehydration（脱水）can make skin less pleasant, but there was no clear evidence to support the idea that water helps people keep a youthful appearance. The researchers also found no evidence that drinking lots of water does some good to the body's organs （言称官）. 1、From the passage, we know that the suggestion about drinking eight glasses of water a day.A. causes some serious diseasesB. has enough scientific evidence to support itC. is misunderstood by people in factD. was published by the British Medical Journal2、From the passage we learn that many people don*t know that .A. the production of urine can cause water to loseB. health can be improved by drinking plenty of waterC. better skin can result from intake of much waterD. caffeinated drinks can provide the water people need3、What can be proved about drinking a lot of water according to the passage?A. Reducing the bad influence of drinking alcohol.B , Helping to keep youthful looks.C - Making the body's organs stronger.D. Causing bad headaches.4、The writer's main purpose of writing this passage is to.A. persuade people to drink different kinds of waterB. tell people drinking much water is not as healthy as is consideredC , warn people of the danger of drinking much waterD help people realize the importance of drinking enough water every dayText 2More than 135,000 UK drinkers will die from cancer caused by alcohol（酒精）by the year 2035, researchers say. Drinking too much will cause 7,100 cancer deaths a year by 2035, a rise of 13 percent on the present rate. A study by Sheffield University and Cancer Research UK shows that alcohol will cost the NHS（National Health Service） £ 53billion over the next ten years including £ 2 billion on cancer.Although alcohol is known to cause many types of cancer including breast and throat most people don't realize the relation between alcohol and cancer. A survey of 2,100 Britons by the researchers earlier this year found nine in ten did not associate drinking with cancer. The researchers used a computer model to work out the numbers of alcohol-related cancer deaths, hospital admissions（入院）and total costs to NHS over the next 20 years.The study shows that a fifth of men and 1 in 10 women have alcohol every day-and many of these are middle-aged and middle class. Researchers are very worried about this group as they believe cancer may be caused by drinking over long periods. The study shows that even if the expense stays as it is, alcohol-related cancer deaths will rise from 6,299 in 2015 to 7,097 in 2034. Alcohol will lead to 891, 299 hospital admissions, up from 802, 118 in 2015, and 65, 005 will be caused by cancer.Earlier this year Chief Medical Officer Dame Sally Davies studied carefully the alcohol guidelines（指导方针）for the first time in thirty years. She told people there was no safe level of drinking and advised them to drink no more than 14 units a week. But researchers say this guidance isn't enough and want the government to increase a little price per unit of alcohol.1、What can we learn from the text?A. Fewer people will die of cancer in the futureB. Alcohol will be the only cause of cancer deathsC. More and more people will get rid of the habit of drinkingD. The computer model can offer researchers useful numbers2、What does the underlined word “associate“ in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Share B. CompareC. Connect D. Replace3、The researchers hope the government can.A. raise the price of alcohol properlyB remove the nation's drinking habitC. improve middle-aged persons9 incomeD. provide fund for National Health Service4、What may be the best title for the text?A. People Having Alcohol Must Suffer from CancerB. All People Have Known Alcohol May Cause CancerC. Researchers Are Trying to Discover the New Causes of CancerD. Alcohol will Have Worse Effects on British People over the Coming YearsText 3There's something about the New Year that always makes me read my horoscope （星象）to see what lies ahead. I don't believe in any of it really but there's comfort in being told that the next 12 months will bring health, wealth and happiness. Well, it's usually over optimistic, isn't it?There are many other people who are also skeptical about astrology （占星术）and its belief that knowledge of the position of the stars and planets can help us understand our personality or predict human affairs. However, despite the lack of scientific evidence in its favour, astrology has been around for thousands of years, and is believed by millions of people in both the West and the East.The West has its star signs every month and the East has its animals every year. Tm a Pig. When I first found out I was a Pig person I was a little disappointed, and my friends （powerful Dragons, friendly Dogs and fierce Tigers） laughed. Pigs have a bad reputation- people think they're dirty animals that smell horrible.In the Chinese zodiac （生肖）there are 12 animals and according to one legend, when Buddha left the earth, only 12 animals came to say goodbye to him. As a reward Buddha named a year after each of the animals in the order that they came to him, and the pig came last. So I thought I was unlucky being a Pig but this isn't so.It appears that Pigs are kind people who are helpful and giving. They tend to make good friends as they are faithful, thoughtful and trusting. Pigs are happy, optimistic people and have lots of funthat sounds OK to me! However, Pigs are often naive （幼稚的）and apparently it's easy to cheat a Pig. They are also likely to react without thinking, and they5re not that great with money either. Pigs, it seems, get along with Sheep and Rabbits but, interestingly, not other Pigs, who they should stay clear of.1、Finding out that he was a Pig person, the author felt. A , a little unhappy B. very excited C. quite proud D. a little surprised2、What is the legend mentioned in Paragraph 4 mainly about?A . The lonely life of Buddha. B . The features of Pig people.C.
