I have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly. As a doctor, mother and scientist in child development I believe there is nothing to recommend it, from the baby's point of view.
Mothers, doctors and nurse alike have no idea of where a baby's blood sugar level lies. All we know is that a low level is harmful to brain development and makes a baby easily annoyed. In this state, the baby is difficult to calm down and sleep is impossible. The baby asks for attention by crying and searching for food with its mouth.
It is not just unkind but also dangerous to say a four-hourly feeding schedule will make a baby satisfied. The first of the experts to advocate a strict clock-watching schedule was Dr Frederic Truby King who was against feeding in the night. I've never heard anything so ridiculous. Baby feeding shouldn't follow a timetable set by the mum. What is important is feeding a baby in the best way, though it may cause some inconvenience in the first few weeks.
Well, at last we have copper-bottomed research that supports demand feeding and points out the weaknesses of strictly timed feeding . The research finds out that babies who are fed on demand do better at school at age 5, 7 , 11 and 14, than babies fed according to the clock. By the age of 8, their IQ（智商）scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a rigid timetable. This research comes from Oxford and Essex University using a sample（樣本）of 10,419 children born in the early 1990s,taking account of parental education, family income, a child's sex and age, the mother's health and feeling style. These results don't surprise me. Feeling according to schedule runs the risk of harming the rapidly growing brain by taking no account of sinking blood sugar levels.
I hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly timed baby feeling practices.
小題1:What does the author think about Dr King?
A．He is strict
B．He is unkind
C．He has the wrong idea.
D．He sets a timetable for mothers
小題2:The word copper-bottomed in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _________
A．basicB．reliableC．surprisingD．interesting
小題3:What does the research tell us about feeling a baby on demand?
A．The baby will sleep well.
B．The baby will have its brain harmed.
C．The baby will have a low blood sugar level.
D．The baby will grow to be wiser by the age of 8.
小題4:The author supports feeling the baby_______.
A．in the night
B．every four hours
C．whenever it wants food
D．a(chǎn)ccording to its blood sugar level

LEEDS, England—A Leeds University psychology professor is teaching a course to help dozens of Britons forgive their enemies.
"The hate we hold within us is a cancer, " Professor Ken Hart said, adding that holding in anger can lead to problems such as high blood pressure and heart disease.
More than 70 people have become members in Hart's first 20-week workshop in London—a course he says is the first of its kind in the world.
These are people who are sick and tired of living with a memory. They realize their bitterness is a poison they think they can pour out, but they end up drinking it themselves, said Canadian- born Hart.
The students meet in groups of eight to ten for a two-hour workshop with an adviser every fortnight.
The course, ending in July, is expected to get rid of the cancer of hate in these people. "People have lots of negative attitudes towards forgiveness," he said, "People confuse forgiveness with forgetting. Forgiveness means changing from a negative attitude to a positive one."
Hart and his team have created instructions to provide the training needed.
"The main idea is to give you guidelines on how to look at various kinds of angers and how they affect you, and how to change your attitudes towards the person you are angry with," said Norman Claringbull, a senior expert on the forgiveness project.
Hart said he believes forgiveness is a skill that can be taught, as these people "want to get free of the past".
小題1:From this passage we know that________.
A．high blood pressure and heart disease are caused by hate
B．high blood pressure can only be cured by psychology professors
C．without hate, people will have less trouble connected with blood and heart
D．people who suffer from blood pressure and heart disease must have many enemies
小題2:If you are angry with somebody, you should________.
A．a(chǎn)ttend Hart’s course
B．never meet him or her any longer
C．persuade him or her to have a positive talk with you
D．treat him or her positively instead of negatively
小題3:In Hart's first 20- week workshop, people there can ________.
A．meet their enemiesB．change their attitudes
C．enjoy the professor's teachingD．learn how to quarrel with others
小題4:If you are a member in Hart's workshop, you'll________.
A．meet in eight or ten groups
B．get rid of the illness of cancer
C．a(chǎn)ttend a gathering twice a month
D．pour out everything stored in your mind
小題5:The author wrote this passage in order to________.
A．persuade Britons to go to Hart's workshop
B．tell us the news about Hart's workshop
C．tell us how to run a workshop like Hart's
D．help us to look at various kinds of angers

Want to stay away from colds? Put on a happy face.
Compared to unhappy people, those who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds, according to a new study. It's possible that being happy helps the body fight illnesses, say the researchers from New York University.
"It seems that positive feelings may reduce the danger of illness," said the study's chief researcher Sheldon Cohen.
In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were cheerful and lively caught coughs and colds less often. People who showed feelings were also less likely to tell their doctors that they felt ill.
In this study, Cohen's interviewed 193 adults every day for two weeks. During the interviews, the people were given colds by doctors and had to stay alone in a room for six days.
The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get ill. But for people who said they felt happy during the research period, their illness are less serious and lasted for a shorter time.
Cohen believes that when people experience positive feelings, their body may produce a chemical that helps fight illness and disease. So if you are worried abut your health, look on the bright side more often.
小題1:Which of the following was NOT a part of the study?
A．People talked about their feelings every day.
B．People were kept alone for six days.
C．People were given colds by doctors.
D．People were made to feel unhappy.

Ten years ago I used to be very fit (健康的). I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those days I didn’t earn very much. I had a job in an office. It wasn’t a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing.
Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn’t have any time for things like that any more.
There’s a lot of stress (壓力) in my job. Perhaps that’s why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling my glass to the top, and instead of having one glass, I would have several. I started smoking a lot, too. I never used to smoke at all.
Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldn’t believe it. Luckily it wasn’t very serious. The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less. He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just haven’t any time! My job takes everything out of me!
Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job. Perhaps I could do something like I used to do. But if I do that, I won’t earn as much. I have a family to support. I have to think of them, too. I just don’t know what I should do. What do you think?
小題1:Compared with ten years ago, what is worse for the author now?

Bad teeth can be painful — and worse. They can even be deadly. Infections (感染）of the gums (牙齦）and the teeth can cause bacteria (細菌）to go into the blood system. Those bacteria can increase the chance of a heart attack and worsen the effects of other diseases. And adults are not the only ones at risk. For example, in 2007, doctors in the Washington area said a boy died when a tooth infection spread to his brain. They said it might have been prevented had he received the dental care (牙齒 保�。﹉e needed. He was twelve years old.
Experts at the National Institutes of Health say good dental care starts at birth. Breast milk, they say, is the best food for the healthy development of teeth. Breast milk can help slow the growth of bacteria and acid production in the mouth.
But dentists say a baby's gums and early teeth should be cleaned after each feeding. Use a cloth with a little warm water. Do the same if a baby is fed with a bottle. Experts say if you decide to put your baby to sleep with a bottle, only give the child water.
When baby teeth begin to appear, you can clean them with a wet toothbrush. Dentists say it is important to find soft toothbrushes made especially for babies and to use them very gently.
The use of fluoride (氟化物）to protect teeth is common in many parts of the world. For example, it is often added to drinking water supplies. The fluoride mixes with enamel (法瑯質(zhì))， the hard surface on teeth, to help prevent holes from forming.
31.According to the passage, bad teeth can be ____________.
A.painful  B. deadly  C.preventive  D.incurable
32.The writer uses the boy's death as an example to show that   _______?
A. not only adults but the young may suffer from teeth problem
B. babies with bad teeth can easily die
C. the doctors should be responsible for the case
D. the boy was not fed with his breast milk
33. What's the main idea of paragraph 4 and 5?
A. How to develop babies' teeth.           B. Why to protect babies' teeth
C. How to keep babies' teeth clean         D. Why to keep babies' teeth clean
34. The passage tells us that _______.
A. Enamel is most widely used to protect teeth in the world
B. Bad teeth may affect the health of adults and the young
C. Breast milk can cure babies' bad teeth
D. Babies' teeth should be brushed once per day
35.Which of the following can be used as the title of the passage?
A. Concerns for Healthy Teeth of the Young  B. Importance of Healthy Teeth of All
C. Causes of Teeth Problem               D. Solutions to Teeth Problem

Young people looking for a job with good pay, flexible hours and job security should consider working in health care, according to a list of the top 15 best jobs in the US for young people.
Health care is the fastest growing sector of the US economy and nearly half of what are considered the top jobs for young people are in the sector, Forbes.com said.
With a medium annual salary of $33,470, dental assistants topped the ranking, while medical assistants, who earn about $28,860, came in No. 3, followed by physical therapist assistants who make a medium salary of nearly $50,000 and health aides who earn $20,560.
Teachers of self-enrichment courses such as pottery and art, were the only non-health job in the top five.
"Almost every one of these requires physical contact," Laurence Shatkin, the author of the book "150 Best Jobs for Your Skills," told Forbes. com. "You have to show up to do them, so you're not being shipped overseas, and they can't be done by a robot."
Shatkin studied which jobs have the highest concentration of 16 to 24 year olds, pay well and have opportunities for entry level positions. He based the ranking on annual salary and openings and projected growth. Many of the jobs do not require a college degree.
Fitness trainers and aerobics instructors, pharmacy technicians and surgical technologists were also among the top 10 jobs for young people.
Because many of the jobs can be done on a part-time basis, they offer the flexibility for people to continue their education while doing them. Some of the jobs offer career prospects and advancements.
"Young people may not have figured out what their priorities are yet," Shatkin told Forbes.com.   "They may use these jobs to discover what they like and where they fit in."
小題1:From the passage, we know that health care is a sector where people in the USA can ________.
A．work the shortest time
B．make the most money
C．enjoy its safest working conditions
D．experience its fastest development
小題2:After reading the passage, we can infer that _________.
A．teachers of self-enrichment courses are No.2 among the top five jobs
B．dental assistants are listed as the best job due to their highest salary
C．people still need to go to college to get a good job
D．good jobs are those that can be done part-time
小題3:What can be the best title for the passage?
A．Health Care among Top Jobs for Young People
B．Factors for People to Consider while Seeking Jobs
C．Results from Forbes.com on Best Jobs
D．The Higher the Pay Is, the Better the Job Is
