Is there anything more important than health? I don’t think so. “Health is the greatest wealth(財富),” wise people say. You can’t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.　　     
Speaking about health, I can’t help telling you a funny story.　　
An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease.　   
He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule: “Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.　　
A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.　　
“But you know, doctor,” he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”

Internet use appears to cause a drop in psychological health, according to a research at Carnegie Mellon University.
Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression(沮喪) and loneliness than those who used Internet less frequently, the two-year study showed. And it wasn’t that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that using the Net actually appeared to cause the bad feeling.
Researchers are puzzled by the results, which were completely the opposite to their experiences. They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose the information and to communicate with others.
The fact that Internet use reduces time available for family and friends may explain the drop in well-being, researchers supposed. Faceless, bodiless “virtual” communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation, and the relationships formed through it may be shallower. Another possibility is that knowing the wider world via the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.
“But it’s important to remember this is not about the technology; it’s about how it is used,” says psychologist Christine Riley of Intel, one of the study founders. “It really points to the need for considering social factors in terms of how you design applications(應(yīng)用) and services for technology.”
小題1:The best title of the passage probably is        .
A．Internet May Cause Depression
B．The Danger of Internet
C．Communication with Others by Internet
D．Puzzled by the Results
小題2:Why did the results of research puzzle the researchers?
A．People could choose their information through Internet.
B．They had expected the opposite results.
C．People can communicate with others.
D．They had thought Internet was much healthier.
小題3:Which of the following may be the cause of depression?
A．Net users found their living conditions bad.
B．Net users already had mental problems.
C．Deep relationships were formed through Internet.
D．Net users had less time to communicate with other people.
小題4:The writer’s attitude towards technology is        .
A．social factors must be considered while using technology
B．technology was to blame for depression
C．the problem doesn’t lie in technology
D．a(chǎn)pplications and services for technology must be designed

It doesn’t matter when and how much a person sleeps , but everyone needs some rest to stay alive. That’s what all doctors thought , until they heard about Herpin. Herpin, it was said , never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.

Office workers should know that long periods of sitting at your desk may be a killer. Scientists have shown a new threat from this lifestyle that they call  “muscular inactivity (肌肉遲鈍)”．
Sitting still for long periods of time leads to the buildup of substances (物質(zhì)) in the blood that are harmful to health. And exercise alone won’t drive them away.
Millions of people spend their days between car，office desk and the sofa in front of the TV. While the bad influences are well rocognized，it has been thought that they can be changed by regular trips to the gym or swimming pool.
Now researchers say that is not enough. In addition to regular exercise，office workers need to keep moving while they work，by making regular trips to the printer，coffee machine or to chat with workmates.
Elin Ekblom­Bak，an expert on health，says research shows long periods of sitting and lack (缺乏)  of “whole body muscular movement”  are strongly linked to obesity，heart disease and cancer，and a higher risk of death，regardless of (不管) whether they take enough exercise.
“Everyone knows about the health benefits of regular exercise. But what we haven’t realized before is that long­period sitting down carries an extra risk that cannot be dealt with by taking exercise，” Dr Ekblom­Bak said，adding that sitting still should be recognized as a risk to health.
“It is important to have a five­minute break from desk work every 45 minutes. Don’t email workmates—walk across the office to give them the message. Take a coffee break or put the printer in the next room. I am a desk worker and I try to do it. It is not difficult but sometimes you get lost in your work and you forget about it.”
However，more studies are needed to confirm the ill effects of sitting for too long and ways of fighting them. But at present they conclude that  “keep moving”  should be added to the advice to “keep exercising.”
小題1:Nowadays，many office workers wrongly think that________.
A．long periods of sitting has bad influences on them
B．regular exercise benefits them after long periods of sitting
C．they are living a lifestyle called “muscular inactivity”
D．it’s unfair for them to sit in the office for too long
小題2:What does the author suggest office workers should do?
A．Chat with workmates often.
B．Send emails instead of chatting.
C．Keep moving in the office regularly.
D．Take more exercise after work.
小題3:The last paragraph suggests that the result of the study is________.
A．scientific B．uncertainC．unbelievableD．convincing
小題4:What would be the best title for the passage?
A．A new threat ：long­period sitting
B．Office workers should keep exercising
C．Taking exercise benefits a lot
D．Keep moving，it could save your life

What happens inside the skull of a soccer player who repeatedly heads a soccer ball? That question motivate a challenging new study of the brains of experienced players that has caused discussion and debate among soccer players, and some anxiety among those of us with soccer-playing children.
For the study, researchers at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York selected 34 adults，men and women. All of the volunteers had played soccer since childhood and now competed year-round in adult soccer leagues. Each filled out a detailed questionnaire developed especially for this study to determine how many times they had headed a soccer ball in the previous year, as well as whether they had experienced any known concussions（腦震蕩）in the past.
Then the players completed computerized tests of their memory and other learning skills and had their brains scanned, using a complicated new MRI technique which can find structural changes in the brain that can’t be seen during most scans.
According to the data they presented at a Radiological Society of North America meeting last month，the researchers found that the players who had headed the ball more than about 1,100 times in the previous 12 months showed significant loss of white matter in parts of their brains involved with memory，attention and the processing of visual information, compared with players who had headed the ball fewer times.
This pattern of white matter loss is “similar to those seen in traumatic（外傷的）brain injury” , like that after a serious concussion, the researchers reported，even though only one of these players was reported to have ever experienced a conc ussion.
The players who had headed the ball about 1,100 times or more in the past year were also generally worse at recalling lists of words read to them, forgetting or fumbling the words far more often than players who had headed the ball less.
小題1:The passage is most probably a _________________.
A．news reportB．research report
C．story for soccer players D．text for doctors
小題2:From the passage we can conclude that frequent heading may have  _________________.
A．significant effect on one’s brain
B．little effect on one’s brain
C．nothing to do with the brain injury
D．one’s memory improved
小題3:What is likely to be the cause of memory loss?
A．Playing soccer frequently.B．Tests of their memory.
C．White matter loss.D．Information processing.
小題4:The underlined word "fumbling" is closest in meaning to ________________.
A．rememberingB．misunderstandingC．recallingD．missing

A blocked airway(呼吸道) can kill someone in three to four minutes, but it can take more than eight minutes for an ambulance to arrive. So a simple procedure such as opening someone's airway can save their life while they're waiting for emergency medical help. This means you're more likely to give first aid to someone you know than a stranger.
There are many misconceptions(誤解) surrounding first aid. Below are the ‘most popular’ ones with details of what you should do.
You should put butter or cream on a burn. The only thing you should put on a burn is cold water - keep the butter for cooking. Put the affected area under cold running water for at least ten minutes.
The best way to treat bleeding is to put the wound under a tap. If you put a bleeding wound under a tap you wash away the body's clotting agents(凝血劑) and make it bleed more. Instead put pressure on the wound with whatever is available to stop or slow down the flow of blood. As soon as possible call 999. Keep pressure on the wound until help arrives.
Nosebleeds are best treated by putting the head back. If you put the head back during a nosebleed, all the blood goes down the back of the airway. Instead advise them to tilt(傾斜) their head forwards and ask the person to pinch(捏) the end of their nose and breathe through their mouth.
You need lots of training to do first aid. You don’t - what you mostly need is common sense. You can learn enough first aid in a few minutes to save someone's life – whether it’s from a book, attending a course or watching videos online.
Remember: anyone can save a life
小題1:The most important point to save a person’s life is to ensure _____.
A．his smooth breath
B．a(chǎn)mbulances’ arriving time
C．the quiet surroundings
D．emergency medical help
小題2:If a person is burnt, what you should do immediately is to _____.
A．put some cream on the burn area
B．cook some butter for the burn
C．place the burn under cold running water
D．wash the affected area for a long time
小題3:If a bleeding wound is put under a tap, what should happen?
A．It will help the bleeding stop at once.
B．It will help produce more clotting agents.
C．It will produce more pressure on the wound
D．It will bleed more and hard to stop
小題4:Which of the following statement is RIGHT?
A．When a person’s nose bleed, please put the head back.
B．You can learn first aid in quickly in different ways.
C．When a person is burnt, crap the burn until help arrives.
D．Not everyone can do first aid to save a life.
小題5:The passage mainly tells us _____.
A．how to learn first aid by yourself
B．some misunderstanding about first aid
C．the importance of first aid
D．how to help medical team save a life
