We all know that certain oils are healthier than others. but your oil health goes beyond just the type.The health of your oil can be related to how you use it too.
Each type of oil has what is called a“smoke point. ”The smoke point is the  specific temperature at which the oil starts to break down, or in more technical terms, its molecular structure begins to change. These molecular changes result in; changes in flavor, as well as W  changes in nutritional value,specifically,the nutritional value of the oil starts to reduce;changing what once may have been considered an especially healthy oil,like Olive,into one that is unhealthy.
The higher an oil’s smoke point is,the higher the temperature of the oil can be.As a result, each type of oil should be used for the cooking method that is most appropriate to its individual smoke point and heat tolerance. Here is a quick guide for the next time you reach for your favorite oil.
Heat During Cooking

Best Use
Low to Moderate
Coconut
Baking (low heat ) Light Sauteing Pressure Cooking Salads
Corn
Olive
Peanut
Sesame
Walnut
Medium Heat
Macadamia Nut
Baking
Sauteing
Stir-Frying
Safflower
High Heat
Grape-seed
Deep Browning
Deep-Frying
Sunflower
Soybean/Soy
Note that the above table represents oils that are refined(精煉的).Most oils we buy are refined.Refined oils tend to have much higher smoke points than when they are unrefined.They also differ in nutrition and flavor.Unrefined oils are more nutritious and they tend to be much richer in flavor.
When it comes to extremely high heat cooking,always choose oils which are refined.
62.What determines whether an oil is healthy or not?
A.Whether it’s refined or not.      B.Its smoke point.
C.Its molecular.                                               D.How you use it.
63.Which of the following might be a better choice to make a healthy salad?
A.Refined walnut oil.                                B.Safflower oil.
C.Unrefined olive oil.                                      D.Sunflower oil.
64.Healthy oil can become unhealthy if. according to the passage.
A.you keep it for too long         B.it is heated well beyond its smoke point
C.it is refined                D.its flavor is changed
65.The author wants to tell readers that               .
A.oils are related to health  
B.oils’ value depends on their smoke points
C.“certain oils are healthier ”is relative
D.oils’ flavor and nutrition are connected

C
A technique that controls immediate gas explosions by spraying them with large droplets of water is being tested by scientists at the University of Wales, United Kingdom.Instead of using the traditional fine water sprays when a gas leak is detected, the researchers have discovered that large droplets help to draw in some of the force of any explosion and provide a better way of controlling fire.
The research is based on studies made of the Piper Alpha oil rig (油井) explosion that occurred in the North Sea nine years ago killing 167 workers.The Welsh team found that by covering the gas-leak area with water droplets, the explosion and its effect can be greatly reduced.
Dr Gerand Thomas, a good lecturer in physics at the university’s Center for Explosion Studies, said that it was impossible to deal with gas explosions in the same way as fires because the whole event may only last a quarter of a second and normal water sprays do not have time to be effective.
Using the droplets of water to hold explosions resulted in the water being turned into a mist that allows some force of the explosion to be reduced.The mist slows down the combustion (燃燒) process and can stop a large amount of the gas igniting (點火,燃燒), thus greatly reducing damage by limiting pressure development.With such a system, the operator has to decide at what point after a gas leak to activate the sprays.
The Center for Explosion Studies is the first of its kind in the UK and has been purposely-built for the study and implication of industrial explosions on land and sea.Research is developed to the causes of accidental explosions and they might be prevented.Full-sized imitative buildings can be built at the center where explosions and fires are created to test preventative equipment using sensors to monitor their efficiency.
Another area that the Welsh researchers have been looking at is how materials respond to explosions.The center also carries out research requested by individual customers.
64.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Piper Alpha Oil Rig Explosion
B.Large Droplets of Water
C.A New Way of Controlling Gas Explosions
D.The center for Explosion Studies
65.The research finds that _____ in holding immediate explosion.
A.small water sprays are better than large droplets of water
B.small water sprays are not as good as large droplets of water
C.both small water sprays and large droplets of water are good
D.neither small water sprays nor large droplets of water is good
66.Dr Geraint Thomas implies that ______.
A.normal water sprays can put out fire effectively
B.gas explosions break out more quickly than fires
C.fires are easier to be held than explosions
D.gas explosions break out so quickly that there is no way to control it
67.Which of the following is not included in the research area of the Center for Explosion Studies?
A.To test the result of gas explosion.
B.To get some implications of industrial explosions on land and sea.
C.To find out how materials respond to explosions.
D.To find out when material respond to explosions.

(C)
Astronaut Jim Voss has enjoyed many memorable moments in his career,including three space flights and one space walk. But he recalls with special fondness a decidedly earthbound(為地球引力所束縛的)experience in the summer of 1980 when he participated in the NASA ASEE Summer Faculty Fellowship Program. Voss, then a science teacher at West Poin,was assigned to the Marshall Space Flight Center's propulsion(推進) lab in Alabama to analyze why a hydraulic fuel pump seal (液壓燃料泵的密封圈)on the space shuttle(航天飛機) was working so well when previous seals had failed. It was a seemingly tiny problem among the vast complexities of running the space program. Yet it was important to NASA because any crack in the seal could have led to destructive results for the astronauts who relied on them.
“I worked a bit with NASA engineers,” says Voss, “but I did it mostly by an analysis. I used a handheld calculator, not a computer, to do a thermodynamic(熱力學的) analysis.” At the end of the summer,he,like the other NASA ASEE fellows working at Marshall,summarized his findings in a formal presentation and detailed paper. It was a valuable moment for Voss because the ASEE program gave him added understanding of  NASA,deepened his desire to fly in space,and intensified his application for astronaut status.
  It was not an easy process. Voss was actually passed over when he first applied for the astronaut program in 1978. Over the next nine years he reapplied repeatedly,and was finally accepted in 1987. Since then he has participated in three space missions. The 50 year old Army officer,who lives in Houston,is now in training for a four-month mission as a crew member on the International Space Station starting in July 2000.
 Voss says the ASEE program is wonderful for all involved. “It brings in people from the academic world and gives NASA a special property for a particular period of time. It brings some fresh eyes and fresh ideas to NASA,and establishes a link with our colleges and universities,” Voss explains. “There's an exchange of information and an exchange of perspectives that is very important.”
For the academic side,Voss says,the ASEE program also “brings institutions of higher learning more insight into new technology. We give them an opportunity to work on real world problems and take it back to the classroom.”
66. Why was the hydraulic fuel pump seal important for the space shuttle?
A) Because previous seals all failed.
B) Because it was very complex in running the space program.
C) Because great care has to be taken of the hydraulic fuel pump sealing.
D) Because any crack in the seals would cause disastrous results for the astronauts.
67.The great significance of Voss's findings lies in_________ .
A) strengthening his determination to join in space flights
B) furthering his understanding of NASA
C) consolidating his astronaut status in NASA programs
D) Both A and B
68. How many flights will Voss have finished if his four-month mission starting in July 2000 ends up successfully?
A) Three  B) Two   C) Four     D) Five
69. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to what Voss said on the ASEE program?
A) Fresh members from the academic world participate in the program.
B) The program brings new outlooks to NASA space programs.
C) It is important for the space scientists to exchange information and perspectives.
D) American colleges and universities are a special property of NASA.
70. What does Voss want to stress in the last paragraph?
A) The technological significance of the program.
B) The educational significance of the program.
C) The philosophical significance of the program.
D) The historical significance of the program.

D
An altimeter(高度計) is an instrument used in an airplane to tell the pilot how high he is flying. The altimeter used in most airplanes is a kind of barometer(氣壓計), which, like barometer found in ordinary homes, is a measuring instrument for air pressure. The weight of the atmosphere presses downwards everywhere. At sea level this pressure is more than 14 pounds on every square inch of the surface. The higher you go into the air, the lower the air pressure is. An altimeter measures this air pressure to show the altitude of the airplane, or, how high it is above sea level.
But the altimeter does not show how high the plane is above the ground. A plane might be flying at an altitude of 15,000 feet, but it would be only a thousand feet or so above the ground if the land in that area happened to be 14,000 feet above sea level. The pilot adjusts his altimeter to the actual sea-level pressure before leaving the airport and then corrects it in flight by new information given to him by radio. He flies high enough to be above any mountain he may pass on his course .The barometer altimeter is correct within about 300 feet.
Another kind of altimeter, the radio altimeter, makes use of radio reflection. It calculates the height of the flying plane by sending out electrical signals to the surface below and measuring the time required for them to bounce back(反彈). It is correct within 15 feet over water, but is not reliable over land. Big planes usually have both kinds of altimeter.
67. Which of the following diagrams gives the correct relationship between altimeters and barometers? (a----altimeters, b----barometers)

68. The following drawing shows a plane flying over a mountain. Which of the heights given in the drawing is given by the barometer altimeter in the plane at this moment?

69. Suppose a plane using a radio altimeter is flying 10,000 meters above highland which is 4,000 meters above sea level. What reading will be given by the altimeter?
A.10,000meters.   B. 4,000meters.    C.14,000meters.    D. 6,000 meters.
70. Suppose a plane using both kinds of altimeters is flying over a mountainous area where the land rises and falls very abruptly (迅速地). The pilot keeps his plane steady at the same height. What kind of reading will you get on each of the altimeters?
A. The readings on both altimeters will remain steady.
B. The readings on both altimeters will rise and fall abruptly.
C. The readings on the barometer altimeter will rise and fall abruptly, while that on the radio altimeter will remain steady.
D. The readings on the radio altimeter will rise and fall abruptly, while that on the barometer altimeter will remain steady.

  Educating girls quite possibly produces a higher rate of return than any other investment(投
資)available in the developing world.Women’s education may be an unusual field for experts On economy(經(jīng)濟),but improving women’s contribution to development is actually as much all economic as a social business.And economics provides an explanation for why so many girls are
deprived of an education.
Parents in low-income countries fail to invest in their daughters because they do not expect them to make all economic contribution to the family:girls grow up only to marry into somebody
else’s family and bear children.Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and are kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school.Ignoring women’s education is therefore in a bad circle.
An educated mother, on the other hand, has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an entirely different set of choices.She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children, making sure that her daughters are given a fair chance.The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls,as well as of boys,will be educated and healthy.The bad circle is thus changed into a good
circle.
Educating women has great social benefits and great economic advantages as well.Most obviously, there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers.Wages rise by 10 to 20 per cent for each additional year of schooling.Such big returns are impressive by the standard of other available investments,but they are just the beginning.Educating women also has a significant effect on health practices, including family planning.
63.The author argues that educating girls in developing countries is          .
A.troublesome                  B.labor-saving          C.rewarding         D.expensive
64.The author believes that a bad circle can turn into a good circle when         .
A. women care much more about education
B. girls can gain equal access to education
C. a family has fewer but healthier children
D. parents can afford their daughters' education
65.What does the underlined phrase“deprived of”mean in Paragraph One?
A.supplied with         B. included in               C.kept away from    D.devoted to
66.The passage mainly discusses          .
A. unequal treatment of boys and girls in developing countries
B. the potential earning power of well-educated women
C. the major contributions of educated women to society
D. the economic and social benefits of educating women

There’re five people at our table, including myself. I’ve already learnt a great deal about them in the short time we’ve been at sea, although we rarely meet except at meal times.
First of all, there’s Dr Stone. He’s a man of about sixty five, with gray hair and a friendly face. He gave up his work a short while ago and is now traveling round the world before he retires to some quiet country village. As a young man, he served for many years as a doctor in the army and visited many countries. He’s told us a lot about the city to which we are going.
Then there’s “Grandmother”. I call her that because her name escapes me. In spite of being a grandmother, she looks rather young, not more than fifty, she’s on her way to visit a daughter who went to Australia some years ago. Naturally she is very excited at the thought of seeing her again, and her three grandchildren, whom she has never seen.
Then there’s a man I don’t care for very much, an engineer by the name of Barlow. He has been on leave in England and is now returning to his work in Singapore.
The other person who sits at our table is Mrs. Hunt. I’ve found out hardly anything about her. She’s extremely quiet and rarely talks, except to consult(咨詢)the doctor about children’s various illness. She’s on her way to join her husband in India.
64. What can we know about Mr. Stone?
A. He is a doctor in the army now.

B
People all over the world today are beginning to hear and learn more and more about the problem of pollution. Pollution is caused either by man's release of completely new and often artificial substances into the environment, or by releasing greatly increased amounts of a natural substance , such as oil tankers into the sea.
The whole industrial process which makes many of the goods and machines we need and use in our daily lives, is bound to create a number of waste products which upset the environmental balance, or the ecological balance as it is also known. Many of these waste products can be prevented or disposed of sensibly, but clearly while more and more new and complex goods are produce there will be new, dangerous wastes to be disposed of, for example, the waste products from nuclear power stations. Many people, therefore, see pollution as only part of a larger and more complex problem, that is, the whole process of industrial production and consumption of goods. Others again see the problem mainly in connection with agriculture, where new methods are helping farmers grow more and more on their land to feed our ever-increasing populations. However, the land itself is gradually becoming worn out as it is being used in some cases, too heavily, and artificial fertilizer cannot restore the balance.
Whatever its underlying reasons, there is no doubt that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if only companies, individuals and governments would make more efforts. In the home there is an obvious need to control litter and waste. Food comes wrapped up three or four times in packages that all have to be disposed of; drinks are increasingly sold in bottles or tins which cannot be reused. This not only causes a litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in term of glass, metals and paper. Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us not only to buy things we neither want nor need, but also to throw away much of what we do buy. Pollution and waste combine to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying ,excess consumption and careless disposal of the products we use in our daily lives.
45.The underlined phrase “disposed of ”in the second paragraph means_______.
A. dealt with               B. exposed 
C. disapproved of           D. collected
46. In the writer’s view ,the more new goods, _______.
A. the less pollution             
B. the harder pollution can be prevented
C. the more pollution there will be
D. the more easily pollution can be controlled
47.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. We can do much to reduce pollution.
B. The government is trying hard to stop pollution.
C. Individuals know how to get rid of the habit of littering everywhere.
D. We can’t stop buying unnecessary things.
48. People can help solve the problem of pollution by _______.
A. urging their governments to control litter and waste
B. making anti-pollution advertisements
C. cutting down the use of oil and other oil products
D. reducing unnecessary buying, over-consumption and careless disposal of wastes

C
Have you ever picked a job based on the fact that you were good at it but later found it made you feel very uncomfortable over time? When you select your career, there’s whole lot more to it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position. If you ignore your personality, it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the job's pay. There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job. Here are a few of those main areas:
1) Do you prefer working alone or with other people?
There are isolating(使孤立) jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy. Most people are not extremes in either direction but do have a tendency that they prefer. There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two, which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation.
2) How do you handle change?
Most jobs these days have some elements of change to them, but some are more than others. If you need stability in your life, you may need a job where the changes don't happen so often. Other people would be bored of the same daily routine.
3) Do you enjoy working with computers?
I do see this as a kind of personality characteristic. There are people who are happy to spend more than 40 hours a week on a computer, while there are others who need a lot of human interaction throughout the day. Again, these are extremes and you'll likely find a lot of positions somewhere in the middle as well.
4) What type of work environment do you enjoy? 
This can range from being in a large building with a lot of people you won't know immediately to a smaller setting where you'll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly.
5) How do you like to get paid?  
Some people are motivated by the pay they get, while others feel too stressed to be like that. The variety of payment designs in the sales industry is a typical example for this.
Anyway, these are a great starting point for you. I've seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love. It may take you a little longer, but making a move to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your life for the better.
49.This passage mainly talks about the importance of _______.
A.different jobs      B.personalities    C.personal skills     D.job’s pay
50.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Isolating jobs usually drive people mad.
B.Interactive jobs make people shy easily.
C.Extreme people tend to work with others.
D.Almost everyone has a tendency in jobs.
51.What is the missing word about a job search in the following chart?
A.Design   B.Skills     C.Cooperation    D.Hobbies
 
52.What is the best title for this passage?
A.Lifestyles and Job Pay    B.Jobs and Environment
C.Job Skills and Abilities    D.Personalities and Jobs
