It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy. There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good ‎ shape, eat right food, get enough sleep, and exercise regularly. ‎ Proper nutrition is important for good health. Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind “fuel". Don't eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat, Eat plenty of foods high in protein, like meat, fish, eggs and nuts. Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals. However, don't overeat It is not helpful to be overweight ‎ Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important. If you don't get enough sleep, you feel tired and easily get angry. You have no energy. Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality(人的个性).Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each. If you do, your body will feel strong and refreshed, and your mind will be sharp.‎ Finally, get plenty of exercise. Exercise firms the body, strengthens the muscles, and prevents you from gaining weight. It also improves your heart and lungs. If you follow a regular exercise program, you will probably increase your life-span(寿命). Any kind of exercise is good. Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shapes: basketball, swimming, bicycling, running and so on. Sports are not only good for your body, but they are enjoyable and interesting, too.‎ If everybody were to eat the right foods, get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly, the world would be a happier and healthier place. We would all live to be much older and wiser.‎ ‎21. In order to keep good health______.‎ A. one needs a large amount of fat ‎ B. people should eat according to the foods nutrition C. we must try to sleep now and then D. we should eat a lot of sweets ‎ ‎22. The writer explains ________in the 4th paragraph.‎ A. what to eat ‎ B. how to eat C. the importance of doing exercise ‎ D. how to keep healthy ‎ ‎23. The title for the article should be“_______".‎ A. Eating and Exercising ‎ B. How Vitamins Work in Man's Body C. Staying Healthy ‎ D. Sleeping Well B Although computers used to be large, expensive and difficult to use, they have been made smaller, cheaper and easier to use. As a result, more people have been buying computers for their homes and businesses. They are used to record information and make difficult things easy.‎ Let’s look at some of the many ways computers may affect(影响) your life.‎ Want to get the best treatment at hospitals? Your doctors at hospitals have been greatly helped by computers to get information about patients. It is possible for doctors from different hospitals to read the records of patients, discuss them and make decisions on the best treatment. It would, at one time, take them hours and days to do so.‎ Want to talk to your friends both at home and abroad? Then it’s necessary to connect your computer to the Internet and set up your own e-mail letter box. You can then collect and send mails in seconds. It will be a waste of time and money to post your letters.‎ Want to get advice from Michael Jordan on how to play basketball like a NBA super star? Now it is possible to find out what it is on the Internet.‎ But if you think you have entered the information age because you have the chance to use the Internet, you are wrong. The reason is quite a simple one: over 98 percent of the information on the Internet is in English. The information on-line won’t be helpful to you unless you can use English freely.‎ ‎24. According to the writer, computers in the past were ____.‎ A. easy to use B. dear C. cheap D. small ‎25. Doctors at hospitals use computers for all the following except ____.‎ A. talk to their friends at home and abroad ‎ B. read the records of patients ‎ C. get information about patients D. make decisions on the best treatment ‎26. The Chinese meaning of the underlined word “treatment” in the third paragraph is ____.‎ A. 药品 B. 对待 C.治疗 D. 病房 ‎27. In the fourth paragraph, the writer suggests we should ____.‎ A．use the Internet to send and receive e-mails B. put up a letter box in front of the house C. go to the post office to post letters D. all of the above C Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy. ‎ Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.‎ Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal ,usually the male, claims(声称)as its own .Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species(物种)are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.‎ If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time ,especially at ‎ nesting(筑巢)season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.‎ Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.‎ You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.‎ ‎28. Some scientists believe that most of the time birds’ singing is actually ________.‎ A. an expression of happiness B. an expression of anger C. a way of warning D. a way of greeting ‎29. How does the writer explain birds’ singing?‎ A. By telling a bird’s story.‎ B. By comparing birds with human beings.‎ C. By reporting experiment results.‎ D. By describing birds’ daily life.‎ ‎30. What is a bird’s “territory”?‎ A. An area for which birds fight against each other.‎ B. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.‎ C. A place where families of other species are not accepted.‎ D. An area which a bird considers to be its own.‎ ‎31. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?‎ A. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away. ‎ B. Because they want to find outsiders around.‎ C. Because they want to invite more friends.‎ D. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.‎ D There is no doubt that to study abroad gives you an excellent opportunity to learn ‎ things which are very helpful in your career building.

That is why more than 130,000 international students enroll(登记入学) every year in famous Canadian universities.
