The word “sport” first meant something that people did in their free time. Later it often meant hunting wild animals and birds. About a hundred years ago the word was first used for organized games. This is the usual meaning of the word today. People spend a lot of their time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they want to. A few people are paid for the sport they play. These people are called professional sportsmen. They may be sportsmen for only a few years, but during that time the best ones can earn a lot of money. For example, a professional footballer in England earns more than 30,000 dollars a year. The stars earn a lot more. International golf and tennis champions can make more than 500,000 dollars a year. Of course, only a few sportsmen can earn as much money as that.
Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is that the stars can earn more money from advertising than from sports. An advertisement for sports equipment does not simply say “Buy our things”. It says “Buy the same shirt and shoes as …”. Famous sportsmen can even advertise things like watches and food. They allow the companies to use their names or a photograph of them and they are paid for this. Sport is no longer just something for people’s spare time.
小題1:From the passage we can learnt that_______.
A.  people spend too much money on sports
the development of sport is slower than any other activity
most people enjoy sport because they can earn money
nowadays sport is not merely a pastime for people
小題2:Nowadays, the word “sport” means “________” .
A.what people do in their spare timeB.hunting wild animals and birds
C.organized games D.something people are paid to do
小題3:People play sports for ________.
A.funB.differentC.moneyD.keeping fit
小題4:What surprises people most is that ________.
A.the stars get more money from advertising
B.the word “sport” meant hunting animals
C.professional sportsmen are paid for what they do
D.only a few sportsmen can earn $500,000 a year

Even a small reduction in salt in the diet can be a big help to the heart. A new study used a computer model to predict how just three grams less a day would affect heart disease in the United States.
The result: thirteen percent fewer heart attacks. Eight percent fewer strokes. Four percent fewer deaths. Eleven percent fewer new cases of heart disease. And two hundred forty billion dollars in health care savings.
Researchers found it could prevent one hundred thousand heart attacks and ninety-two thousand deaths every year.
The study is in the New England Journal of Medicine. Kirsten, at the University of California, was the lead author. She says people would not even notice a difference in taste with three grams, or one-half teaspoon, less salt per day. The team also included researchers at Stanford and Columbia University.
Each gram of salt contains four hundred milligrams of sodium, which is how foods may list their salt content.
The government says the average American man eats ten grams of salt a day. The American Heart Association advises no more than three grams for healthy people. It says salt in the American diet has increased fifty percent since the nineteen seventies, while blood pressures have also risen. Less salt can mean a lower blood pressure.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is leading an effort called the National Salt Reduction Initiative. The idea is to put pressure on food companies and restaurants.
Mayor Bloomberg has already succeeded in other areas, like requiring fast food places in the city to list calorie information. Now a study by the Seattle Children's Research Institute shows how that idea can influence what parents order for their children.
Ninety-nine parents of three to six year olds took part. Half had McDonald's menus clearly showing how many calories were in each food. The other half got menus without the calorie information.
小題1: How many heart attacks will occur in the US every year? 
A.nearly 800,000.B.24,000.
C.100,000.D.92,000.
小題2:We can learn from the passage that         .  
A.Americans ate no more than 5 grams of salt per day in the 1970s
B.the American Heart Association suggest less than 3 grams of salt every day
C.a(chǎn) reduction in salt in the diet helps lower blood pressure
D.a(chǎn)ll the heart diseases result from eating more salt
小題3:The National Salt Reduction Initiative aims to         
A.a(chǎn)dvise Americans to eat less salt
B.put pressure on food companies and restaurants
C.require fast food places to list calorie information
D.a(chǎn)ttract the public attention to the problem
小題4:All the following are related to the salt in diet except         .

I’m glad to find this comment which has some sort of support in this quest(尋求)I have to eat raw(未煮熟的)foods. I’m an unhealthy 49 years old and have come to the conclusion that it’s now or never, so I am taking a dive into the raw eating lifestyle.
I have to cook for my family and prepare what they want to eat. I’m trying to plan out this better so I have some of these unusual foods ready for myself.
I’ve read several books written by Ann Wigmore and like her approach to the living foods.
Last week I attempted fasting(禁食)and failed. I lasted five days by having carrots, spinach, apples and other vegetarian diets I could get my hands on. I was doing fine until I drank some coffee. I kind of proved it in my mind to have the coffee but it only made me excited and then I couldn’t sleep well and felt hungry and weak. So I stopped and went back to the old way of eating with the family.
This week I started to make a drink called rejuvelac made of sprouted wheat(芽麥). This is fairly new to do for me and the drink smelled sort of musty(發(fā)霉的)and tasted kind of like a musty lemon. The kids tasted it and almost threw up but surprisingly it tasted good to me. It is supposed to help in digestion(消化).
I’ve made some attempts to grow wheat grass. I think I have figured that out as long as I keep it away from birds and our horses. I have two habits to get rid of, drinking coffee and smoking. I quit smoking last month but something happened, so I started up again. I’m very frustrated(受挫的) with the smoking and really have a desire to quit for good. Anyhow I will keep this updated on my progress.
小題1:The author must have ________ before she wrote this article.
A.hesitated at whether she should eat raw foods
B.never eaten raw foods
C.made up her mind to eat raw foods instead of cooked ones
D.been discouraged by her family from fasting
小題2:The books written by Ann Wigmore which the author has read are probably about ________.
A.fasting
B.losing weight
C.how to be on a diet
D.a(chǎn)pproaches to eating raw foods
小題3:To the author, the drink made of sprouted wheat ________.
A.might help in digestion
B.might make people who drank it throw up
C.tasted good to anybody
D.was welcomed by the whole family

A.that she can’t eat with her family
B.that she can’t get rid of drinking coffee and smoking
C.how to get used to raw foods
D.that she doesn’t know whether she should eat raw foods

I know what you’re thinking : pizza (比薩餅)? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the a. m. if you want to
I know lots of women who skip breakfast (不吃早餐), and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it . Some say they don’t have time,others think they’re “saving” calories (卡路里), and still others just don’t like breakfast food .
But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking , R , D , who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece.
Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southem California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.
So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers-it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow,” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it,and then you may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects.
小題1: The underlined word “l(fā)eftovers” in Paragraph 1 probably means__________.
A.food remaining after a mealB.things left undone
C.meals made of vegetablesD.pizza topped with fruit
小題2: What can we infer from the text?
A.Working women usually have breakfast in a hurry.
B.Many people have wrong ideas about breakfast.
C.There are some easy ways of cooking a meal.
D.Eating vegetables helps save energy.
小題3: According to the last paragraph, it is important to____________.
A.eat something for breakfastB.be careful about what you eat
C.heat up food before eating itD.eat calorie-controlled food

It is difficult for doctors to help a person with a damaged brain. Without enough blood, the brain lives for only three to five minutes. More often the doctors can’t fix the damage. Sometimes they are afraid to try something to help because it is dangerous to work on the brain. The doctors might make the person worse if he operates on the brain.
Dr. Robert White, a famous professor and doctor, thinks he knows a way to help. He thinks doctors should make the brain very cold. If it is very cold, the brain can live without blood for 30 minutes. This gives the doctor a longer time to do something for the brain.
Dr. White tried his idea on 13 monkeys. First he taught them to do different jobs, then he operated on them. He made the monkeys’ blood back to the monkeys’ brains. When the brain’s temperature was 10℃, Dr. White stopped the blood to the brain. After 30 minutes he turned the blood back on. He warmed the blood again. After their operations the monkeys were like they had been before. They were healthy and busy. Each one could still do the jobs the doctor had taught them.
小題1:.The biggest difficulty in operating on the damaged brain is that ____.
A.the time is too short for doctors
B.the patients are often too nervous
C.the damage is extremely hard to fix
D.the blood-cooling machine might break down
小題2:.The brain operation was made possible mainly by ____.
A.taking the blood out of the brain
B.trying the operation on monkeys first
C.having the blood go through a machine
D.lowering the brain’s temperature
小題3:.With Dr. White’s new idea, the operation on the damaged brain ____.
A.can last as long as 30 minutes
B.can keep the brain’s blood warm
C.can keep the patient’s brain healthy
D.can help monkeys do different jobs
小題4:. What is the right order of the steps in the operations?
a. send the cooled back to the brain      b. stop the blood to the brain
c. have the blood cooled down          d. operate on the brain
A.a(chǎn), b, c, dB.c, a, b, dC.c, b, d, aD.b, c, d, a

A new study has been carried to test the role of story telling in lowering blood pressure.Dr.Thomas Houston, a professor of the University of Massachusetts Medical School, led a group of scientists that investigated how pre-recorded videos of hypertension (高血壓) patients' talking about their medical histories helped another group of patients with high blood pressure to control their condition over several months.
Houston was surprised by their studies that suggested that communication can be a powerful tool in medicine.They showed that those who had had similar experiences, when talking to someone with a similar background, could help change their behavior to become healthier.Hypertension is difficult to control, since it is dependent on diet, exercise and mental state.Medical treatments with drugs, and lifestyle therapies(療法) have been relatively ineffective because people find it hard to follow those medical requirements.
In the test, his team carefully chose their story-tellers from 230 members of a patients' community with whom they could most easily relate.Next, they divided their study population into two groups.One received three interactive (互動) DVDs containing the tellers' stories of their experiences in living with and treating their hypertension.The other were given educational discs on an unrelated health topic.The study volunteers reported that they had listened to the DVDs, and after three months, those who heard the stories of the hypertensive patients lowered their blood pressure.
While the study did not address how the story-telling influenced the patients' behavior, Houston suspects that watching patients of similar backgrounds who had a similar medical experience helped to motivate them to seek medical help to their hypertension.They found that after six months the difference in blood pressure between those who watched the story-tellers and those who observed the unrelated videos remained, suggesting that the story-telling continued to have an effect.
小題1:We can learn from the text that the pre-recorded videos _________.
A.tell medical histories of hypertension patients
B.introduce some medical treatments of hypertension
C.introduce a good lifestyle for hypertensive patients
D.tell scientific discoveries of the scientist group
小題2:Houston was surprised to find that _______.
A.hypertension is really difficult to control
B.communication has some medical effects
C.medical treatments have no effect at all
D.people don't follow the medical requirements
小題3:Which of the following is true about the study?
A.The scientists chose 230 patients from a hospital.
B.Both the groups used the same videos about health topic.
C.The two groups lowered blood pressure in different degrees.
D.The story-tellers were hypertension patients as well.
小題4:Which of the following could be the best title of the text?
A.The stories of some hypertension patients.
B.Medical treatments of blood pressure.
C.Storytelling may help lower blood pressure.

Britain is set to face an increase in cold winters, with up to one-in-seven hitting the UK with longer periods of time when temperatures are below freezing, a study has suggested.The prediction was based on research that found out how low solar activity affected winter weather patterns.
However, the researchers were eager to stress that their findings did not suggest that the region was about to fall suddenly into a "little ice age".The findings appear in the journal Environmental Research Letters."We could get to the point where one-in-seven winters are very cold, as we had at the start of last winter and all through the winter before last," said co-author Mike Lockwood, professor of space environment physics at the University of Reading.
Using the Central England Temperature (CET) record, the world's longest instrumental data series that dates back to 1659, the team said that in general temperatures during recent winters had been obviously lower than the longer-term temperatures."The mean CET for December, January and February for the recent relatively cold winters of 2008 ~ 2009 and 2009~2010 were 3.50℃ and 2.53℃ respectively," they wrote."However, the mean value for the previous 20 winters had been 5.04℃.The series of lower winter temperatures in the UK during the last three years had raised questions about the probability of more similar, or even colder, winters occurring in the future."
Last year.Professor Lockwood and colleagues published a paper that found a link between fewer sunspots and atmospheric conditions that "blocked" warm westerly winds reaching Europe during winter months, opening the way for cold easterly winds from the Arctic and Russia to sweep across the region.Professor Lockwood, while acknowledging that there were a range of possible meteorological factors (氣象因素) that could influence blocking events, said the latest study moved things forward by showing that there was "improvement in the predictive skill" when solar activity was taken into consideration.
小題1:We can know from the second paragraph that _____.
A.research shows that Britain will soon fall into an ice age
B.Mike Lockwood's research focuses on space environment physics
C.it was quite cold in Britain over the entire winter last year
D.so far one-in-seven winters have been very cold in Britain
小題2:The.underlined word "mean" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to "_____".
A.a(chǎn)verageB.stableC.ungenerousD.changeable
小題3:What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.It was sunspots that blocked warm westerly winds reaching Europe.
B.Meteorological factors hardly have any influence on blocking events.
C.The latest study done by Professor Lockwood was of little practical value.
D.Considering solar activity or not affects the accuracy of weather forecasting.
小題4:What's the best title of the passage?
A.Another big danger approaching the UK
B.Research finds out solar activity is to blame for the cold
C.UK faces more cold winters due to weaker solar activity
D.Changes in weather patterns should be responsible for low solar activity

Four out of ten women who diet end up heavier than when they started watching their waistline(腰圍), a study revealed today. The research also showed that a large percentage of women start noticing the pounds creeping back on just 21 days after reaching their ideal weight.
Yesterday, Dr Ian Campbell of the Jenny Craig weight management program said: 'In the UK 61.4 per cent of adults are overweight or obese. Successful weight management requires a long-term commitment in order to lose weight successfully and for good. Dieting can be a real challenge so setting realistic goals and remaining focused on them is important. Otherwise as this research shows, women could end up heavier than when they started.'
The 'Food: Body: Mind' report was publicized by Jenny Craig who quizzed 2000 women aged between 18 and 65 who diet regularly on their attitudes, beliefs and behaviors around weight loss. Six in ten said they are currently on a diet and one in five women said they are on a 'continuous diet'.
It found the most common triggers to start dieting was seeing their 'reflection in the mirror', preparing for a summer holiday or unflattering photos posted on social networking sites. Other popular reasons include comments by friends or relatives or their other half.
However, the study showed that one in ten give up within one day, while almost a fifth manage to make it to a week or more. The average is ten days. Many blamed pressure they put on themselves to lose weight too quickly for the weight gain, which leaves them with a bigger appetite than normal. Others blamed colleagues, who tuck into fatty lunches and snacks unaware of the effect it has on the dieter, while mothers who polish off their children's leftovers was another common cause of weight gain.
小題1:Which of the following might be the best title for this article?
A.Three reasons to fail in dietingB.Important things for successful diet
C.Four in ten women gain weight on dietsD.Obesity: problem for 61.4% adults in UK
小題2:In the UK, women who go on a diet __________.
A. are all overweight or obese
B. all fail because they are not persistent enough
C. are likely to gain weight again after reaching their ideal weight
D. end up heavier than when they start to diet
小題3:The underlined word “triggers” in Paragraph 4 probably means_________.
A.effects B.causesC. examplesD.imagination
小題4:Which of the following is NOT the reason why many people quit dieting very soon?
A.The pressure they put on themselves to lose weight quickly.
B.Colleagues who give them fatty lunches and snacks.
C.Leftovers of children’s taken by their mothers.
D.Reflections they see in the mirror.
