17、n classroom， it also means the training of character by means of games，especially team games，where the boy or girl has to learn to work with others for the team instead of working for himself or herself alone.

23、g 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 culture

24、s 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

25、-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.

This relationship was true regardless of other factors such as age, high blood pressure, or blood cholesterol (胆固醇) levels.35. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.

30、 worried about the effects of air pollution on the earths natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse.Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye pain, headache and other problems.

31、Some pollutants (污染物) can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer. Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution.People have paid more attention to the problem now. It is said that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste

32、 energy. To do this they built buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases.As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They d

33、iscovered a natural pollution control system for building-green plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plants leaves absorb (吸收) or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and small organizations on its roo

34、ts. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square metres of space. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having g

35、reen plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place.39.

37、 flow of air between inside and outsideB. the building way that the builders want to save energyC. the building things that are made of man-made materialsD. the man-made building materials and the limit of air-flow42. The reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is that _.

38、A. plants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoorsB. plants may take in more oxygen which people needC. plants can absorb all kinds of harmful indoor chemicalsE. plants can make our houses prettier and more healthy（D）New York: When the first plane struck 1 World Trade Center at 8:48 am on Tuesday

39、, the people in 2 World Trade Center who saw the instant (瞬间的) damage to the other tower realized clearly what they, too, must do: get out fast.Katherine Ilachinsiki, who had been knocked off her chair by the blast (一阵)of heat exploding from the neighboring tower, was one of those. Despite her 70 ye

40、ars of age, Mrs Ilachinsiki, an architect working on the 91st floor of 2 World Trade Center, the south tower, went for the stairs. Twelve floors above her, Judy Wein, an executive (经理), cried sharply and set off too. But others up and down the 110 floors, many without seeing the damage across the wa

41、y and thus unclear about what was happening, were not so sure. And the 18 minutes before the next plane would hit were ticking off.Most people had no idea about what was the best thing to do, formal announcements inside the south tower asked people to stay put, assuring (使确信) them that the building

42、was sound and the threat (威胁)was limited to the other tower.Some left, others stayed. Some began to climb down and, when met with more announcements and other cautions (警告) to stop or return, went back up. The decisions made in those instants proved to be of great importance, because many who chose

43、to stay were killed completely when the second plane crashed (坠落，碰撞) into the south tower.One of those caught in indecision (犹豫不决) was the executive at Fuji Bank USA.Richard Jacobs of Fuji Bank left the 79th floor with the other office workers, but on the 48th floor they heard the announcement that

44、the situation was under control. Several got in the lifts and went back up, two minutes or so before the plane crashed into their floor.“I just dont know what happened to them,” Mr Jacobs said.43.
