Peer pressure can be a powerful force, and sometimes a positive one. For example, hanging out with active peers may lead kids to       more, making a child’s social network a vehicle for promoting healthy habits and        obesity unconsciously.
The scientists studied networks of a group of students aged 5 to 12 and       how the youngsters’ made and dropped friends, and        effect these changing relationships had on their physical activity level.
In fact, children        their exercise level little by little to better      those in their circle; children who    with more active students were more       to increase their physical activity levels,        those who befriended more sedentary(久坐不動的) children became        active. The children were mirroring, following or adjusting to be        to their friends before they knew it.
The encouraging        suggest a potentially effective way to change children’s behavior.        relying only on organized exercise programs to get moving, perhaps introducing sedentary kids to more active ones — might help more kids        the couch.
It’s believed that this is a possible novel approach to obesity       . The social environment does carry more power than we have given it        for, so we should make use of that intentionally to influence kids.
     that children are increasingly connected to one another,        through face-to-face interactions or virtual ones, their        networks can clearly have a deep effect       many aspects of their behavior-help kids in the long run by turning them into healthier adults.

In this day and age when we have a tendency to toss toys that are even slightly worn, it is tough to believe that there is a “hospital” where dolls can be repaired and brought back to their original glory. What is even more amazing is that such a place has existed for a century and is still going strong. Welcome to Sydney’s “original Doll Hospital” that celebrated its l00th birthday, on February 22nd, 2013.
In 1913, a general store owner in Sydney began importing dolls. However, the rubber bands(橡皮圈) that held them together would often break. Luckily for him, his brother Harold Chapman Sr., was a good handyman and set aside a little “hospital” area in the store to repair the delicate toys. But when customers found out about this, they began bringing in their raggedy dolls, stuffed animals and even leather goods and umbrellas—starting what would become a family business for many generations.
In l930, Chapman’s son also, named Harold, relocated the doll hospital and expanded the business even further, by agreeing to repair anything that could be fixed, no matter how big or small. While business was robust, the real boom came in 1938 during World War Two. Faced with extreme restrictions, new dolls and toys became a rarity, and young girls and boys had no option, but to get their existing ones lovingly restored.
While it does not have as many employees today, the hospital that is run by his son Geoff  Chapman now sits in a spiffy location with a beautiful store-front that features everything a little girl could possibly wish for, from new to lovingly restored, to even extremely rare and valuable  dolls. Also in keeping with modern times and dolls, the doctors are now specialists—some focus on bringing back to life modern dolls, while others stick to antiques. And then there are also the soft toy experts and accessory repair experts.
Though it may not appear to be, the doctors say their jobs are very interesting given that no two dolls are the same or need the same repairs and that just like medical doctors they have no idea what obstacle they will have to face when they come to work each day. The one advantage? There are no emergency night calls to worry about!
小題1:We can learn from Paragraph 2 that __________.
A．people showed little interest in having their toys repaired at first
B．most of the toys that had broken were thrown away by Harold
C．stores in Sydney didn’t produce toys for kids at the beginning of 1900s
D．the toy repairing business came into being rather accidently
小題2: The underlined word “robust” in Paragraph 3 shows the family’s business __________.
A．was struggling hard
B．was greatly stricken
C．was developing very well
D．was enjoying its best time
小題3:What can we learn about people working in the toy repairing hospital?
A．They work in that hospital mainly because they love toys.
B．Most of them focus on repairing modern dolls for little kids.
C．They are not capable of repairing toys that are extremely rare.
D．There are different experts who specialize in different types of toys.
小題4:Which of the following words can describe the doctors’ work according to the last paragraph?
A．Simple.
B．Boring.
C．Worthless.
D．Challenging.

Bright red post boxes, the Queen and queuing—what do they all have in common? They are all important parts of British life. At least I thought so.
However, the ability to queue for long periods of time, once believed to be a traditional characteristic of the British, is no longer tolerated by people in the UK, according to a survey done for British bank Barclays.
Once upon a time, queuing was seen as normal. During World WarⅡ, everyone had to queue up to receive their daily supply of foods. In fact, if you didn't stand up and wait in line with all the others, it was seen as uncivilized.
The famous English double-decker buses, with only one entrance, might also help explain why queuing was seen as a part of British life. Almost always, there is queue to get on.
But perhaps the British are tired of being pushed past by the Spanish, the Italians or the French as they queue up to get a table at a restaurant. The people of these other European countries have more than one entrance to their buses, which explains their more relaxed attitude to the queue.
Two minutes is now the longest time most British people are prepared to stand and wait. But could it be that the Internet, which allows us to carry out tasks quickly, is the main reason why British people are no longer prepared to queue?
"Used to buying without delay, customers are even giving up purchases rather than wait their turn," says Stuart Neal of Barclaycard. "Shoppers are also less likely to queue for long if the item they are buying is of low value."
Perhaps I will have to replace "queuing" with "impatience" in my list of things I relate to the British. 
小題1: What can we learn about the tradition of queuing in Britain? 
A．It was considered a symbol of a civilized behavior.
B．It was a long time tradition as old as the Queen.
C．It was a product of the slow pace of life.
D．It has made the Britain different from other Europeans.
小題2: According to the passage, the British gradually stopped queuing because ______.
A．they prefer shopping online
B．the Internet has changed their way of life
C．what they are buying is of low value
D．they follow the example of foreigners
小題3: It can be learned from the text that ______. 
A．the British used to buy without delay
B．the British have to queue to receive food
C．the British get impatient with queuing for long
D．the British prefer to take double-decker buses
小題4:The author's main purpose of writing the passage is _______.
A．to tell us the influence of the Internet on the British ways of life
B．to compare the cultural difference between Britain and other countries
C．to report his research on the British ways of life
D．to talk about the changes in the attitude to queuing in Britain

Everyone wants to have a healthy heart. Still, heart diseases affect more than 1 in 3 adults in the United States. The good news is that some simple, everyday habits can make a big difference in your ability to live a healthy lifestyle. Here are some worst habits for your heart, and how to avoid them.
Watching TV
Sitting for hours on end increases your risk of heart attack and stroke(中風(fēng)),“some exercise doesn’t make up for the time you sit,”says Harmony R. Reynolds, Why? The lack of movement may affect blood levels of fats and sugars. Dr. Reynolds advises walking around regularly and, if you’re at work, standing up to talk on the phone.
Leaving hostility and depression unchecked
Are you feeling stressed or sad? It can do harm to your heart. While everyone feels this way some of the time, how you handle these emotions can affect your heart health.“Those with stress are in greater danger; research has shown a benefit to laughter and social support,” Dr. Reynolds says. “And it’s helpful to be able to go to someone and talk about your problems.”
Cutting off from the world
It's no secret that on some days, other human beings can seem annoying and too difficult to get along with.
However, it makes sense to strengthen your connections to the ones you actually like. People with stronger connections to family, friends, and society in general tend to live longer, healthier lives.
Everyone needs alone time, but you should still reach out to others and keep in touch whenever you can.
Drinking (too much) alcohol
Sure, studies suggest a small amount of alcohol may be good for your heart. However, too many of us drink over. Too much alcohol is linked to a greater risk of high blood pressure, high levels of blood fats, and heart failure.
小題1:Watching TV for a long time may ______________.
A．help you live a healthy lifeB．lead to heart attack
C．make up for the time you sitD．make you feel stressed
小題2:Which of the following is bad for those with stress and sadness?
A．Laughing a lotB．Talking about their own problems.
C．Getting social supportD．Leaving these emotions alone.
小題3:If you want a long healthy life, you should____________.
A．cut off from the worldB．get along well with others
C．stay alone as much as possible D．drink no alcohol
小題4:From the passage we can infer that _____________.
A．some everyday habits can help avoid heart attacks
B．standing up to talk on the phone is not a good idea
C．it’s easy to strengthen your connections to others
D．too much alcohol is not linked to heart failure

There is an old Chinese proverb that states "One Generation plants the trees; another gets the shade," and this is how it should be with mothers and daughters. The relationship between a mother and daughter is sometimes confusing. If close, the relationship can be similar to friendship. However, the mother and daughter relationship has unique characteristics that distinguish it from a friendship. These characteristics include a hierarchy (等級) of responsibility and unconditional love, which preclude mothers and daughters from being best friends. 
Marina, 27 years old, says, "I love spending time with my mom, but I wouldn't consider her my best friend. Best friends don't pay for your wedding. Best friends don't remind you how they carried you in their body and gave you life! Best friends don't tell you how wise they are because they have been alive at least 20 years longer than you.” This doesn't mean that the mother and daughter relationship can't be very close and satisfying.
While some adult relationships are still troubled, many find them to be extremely rewarding.     This generation of mothers and adult daughters has a lot in common which increases the likelihood of shared companionship. Mothers and daughters have always shared the common experience of being homemakers, responsible for maintaining and passing on family values and traditions. Today contemporary mothers and daughters also share the experience of the workforce and technology, which may bring them even closer together.
Best friends may or may not continue to be best friends, but for better or worse, the mother and daughter relationship is permanent, even if for some unfortunate reason they aren't speaking. The mother and child relationship is closer than any other. There is not an equal relationship. Daughters should not feel responsible for their mother's emotional well-being. It isn’t that they don't care deeply about their mothers. It's just that they shouldn't be burdened with their mother's well being.
The mother and daughter relationship is a relationship that is not replaceable by any other. Mothers never stop being mothers, which includes frequently wanting to protect their daughters and often feeling responsible for their happiness. Mother always "trumps" friend.
小題1:The underlined word “preclude” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_________”.
A．differB．preventC．benefitD．change
小題2:Why do many mothers and adult daughters keep a rewarding relationship?
A．Because they have a lot in common.
B．Because they have common family values.
C．Because they have no generation gap.
D．Because they keep a constant relationship.
小題3:What do we know from the passage?
A．The mother and daughter relationship can be replaced by a best friend.
B．A mother’s love brings her and her daughter a close friendship.
C．The mother and daughter relationship goes beyond best friends’ friendship.
D．Marina has a troubled relationship with her mother.
小題4:The author proves his statements mainly by _________.
A．listing dataB．giving explanationsC．quoting sayingsD．making examples
小題5:What is the best title for the passage?
A．How to be a good mother and daughter
B．Who is a mother’s best friend?
C．A friend in need is a friend indeed.
D．Can a mother be a daughter’s best friend?

"He who can have patience can have what he wants," said Benjamin Franklin. They say patience is a virtue (美德) seldom found in women and never in men. This may or may not be true, but it's fair to say that there is nobody on the earth who couldn't benefit from more patience.
Patience is necessary for success.
It is said that "all good things come to those who wait". Many of the great scientists have remarked that their scientific discoveries came only through patient perseverance (堅持). Edison said, "Genius was 99% perspiration and only 1% inspiration." Patience teaches us to value the effort and not just the success. It is a mistake to think that happiness can only be obtained through achievements.
Patience brings peace of mind.
When we desire certain outcomes (結(jié)果), we'll have no peace of mind. Even if one desire is filled, the nature of desire is that more will appear in its place. There is no end to human desires. Patience means we will work with an attitude of detachment (超然).
Patience can transform suffering into joy.
Throughout life we suffer injustice; the best healer is patience. Through being patient and accepting our situation, it's quite possible for our suffering to be transformed.
Sri Chinmoy said, "If failure has the strength to turn your life into bitterness itself, then patience has the strength to turn your life into the sweetest joy."
小題1:Whose saying supports the idea that patience makes a person joyful?
A．Franklin'sB．Edison'sC．Chinmoy'sD．Einstein's
小題2:In the writer's opinion, _____ .
A．human desires will easily be filled
B．patience is a virtue seldom found in a person
C．happiness can only be obtained through success
D．patience is the best medicine of suffering
小題3:How is the whole passage organized?
A．General-detail-general.B．General-detail.
C．Detail-general-detail.D．Detail-general.

A．We All Need PatienceB．Patience Means Success

You might say that one reason why Barack Obama is president of the US is that he knows how to give a good speech.
Since 2004, Obama has written and delivered thousands of speeches. These are usually praised for two reasons: he treats the audiences like intelligent（有智慧的） adults, and he is able to express complicated ideas in an easy, natural way.
Before becoming president, Obama was a lawyer, a college professor, and a successful writer---his two memories have become best-sellers.
What’s more, he has some secret weapons.
Teleprompter: Obama doesn’t go anywhere without his Teleprompter. The textbook-sized panes of glass holding the president’s prepared remarks follow him wherever he goes to speak.
Writing team: Obama has a team of people who write his speeches. The writers chat with Obama for hours about what he wants to say. They listen to recordings of past presidential speeches and seek advice from advisers. Obama usually edits(編輯)and rewrites the drafts(草稿)several times.
Tricks for lighthearted speeches:
Make fun of the guests: Obama starts his speech by gently teasing his guests. His opening lines draw the audience’s attention while giving them an opportunity to relax and laugh at themselves and each other.
Make fun of yourself: A good rule for speechmakers: If you’re going to make a joke about someone else, be sure to make one about yourself, too. Obama mocks(嘲弄) his own poor choices for filling the position of Commerce Secretary, saying, “No president in history has ever named three Commerce Secretaries this quickly.” In fact, his first two nominees（被提名人）for the position withdrew(撤出) their names for different reasons. In a process that had otherwise gone smoothly, the Obama Administration found it hard to deal with the problem of filling the Commerce seat.
小題1:Obama made the poetic and inspiring speech in 2004 as________.
A．presidentB．a(chǎn) nominee for the presidency
C．a(chǎn) senatorD．a(chǎn) secretary
小題2:What’s the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 2?
A．Difficult to understand.B．Easy to understand.
C．Different from others.D．Interesting to say.
小題3:From the passage, we know that Obama’s secret weapons are all these EXCEPT ____.
A．a(chǎn) writing teamB．a(chǎn) teleprompterC．humorD．motivation
小題4:What’s the best title of the passage？
A．Secrets of Obama’s successful speeches.
B．Obama’s successful speeches.
C．Obama’s way of making speeches.
D．Problems of Obama’s speeches.

I woke up this morning. There is an empty feeling that I have had so many times before and it seems to be coming back into my mind. What is it? I can’t figure it out.
I got ready for work. On the way I decide to stop and get a cheese from the little shop just down the road. I have never been there before but I was hungry and it would be 5 hours before I got off work.
The owner of the store took my order. He asked me what I wanted and I told him I heard he made a great cheese. He seemed pleased to hear that.
As I was sitting in the small space，there was an elderly gentleman finishing his breakfast. He paid the waitress, received this change and made a small joke. As he turned to get up, which was quite a difficult feat for this gentleman, he looked over at me. I gave a small smile.
He looked again in my direction for a moment and said to me, “Has anyone ever told you, you have the most beautiful brown eyes?”
Seeing as I have blue eyes, I can’t say I have ever heard that before. I humored him and said, “No, I can’t say anyone has ever told me that before.”
He smiled, and said,“Well since they are blue you wouldn’t have heard that, but you have beautiful blue eyes.”
I laughed and said thank you very much. He began to tell me a few one liner jokes so I smiled and laughed at his jokes.
He tried to get up to leave again and looked at me and said“Your smile really brightens a room, do you know that?”I said,“Thank you very much.”
He proceeded to get up, which took him quite some time. As he got up he said,“Take care of that smile.”
I felt a sense of comfort wash over me and I reflected on my morning and that empty feeling I had. For a moment in time it seemed to be filled.
小題1:Before the writer went to work, he felt________.
A．sleepyB．energeticC．sickD．unhappy
小題2:From the text, we can infer the old man __________.
A．was optimistic about lifeB．liked to play a joke on others
C．was unwilling to leaveD．had difficulty in hearing
小題3:By saying“since they are blue”, the old man meant“_____________”.
A．because they feel coldB．because they are sad
C．because they have blue eyesD．because they are hungry
小題4:What lesson can we learn from the story?
