Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers conclude that the French tend to stop eating when they feel full. However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.‎ ‎ According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an important part of their life style. They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long ‎ time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers’ markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.‎ ‎ After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Don’t Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food. Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.‎ ‎ In spite of all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesity — or extreme overweight — among adults is only 6%. However, as American fast food gains acceptance and the young reject older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17% — and is growing.‎ ‎21.In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr. Joseph Mercola?‎ ‎ A. They go shopping at supermarkets more frequently. ‎ ‎ B. They squeeze eating between the other daily activities.‎ ‎ C. They regard eating as a key part of their lifestyles.‎ ‎ D. They usually eat too much canned and frozen food.‎ ‎22.This text is mainly about the relationship between _________.‎ A. Americans and the French B. life style and obesity C. children and adults D. fast food and overweight ‎23.This text is mainly developed _____________ ‎ A. by contrast B. by space C. by process D. by classification(分类) ‎ ‎24.Where does this text probably come from?‎ A. A TV interview B. A food advertisement C. A health report D. A book review B People do not like being separated from their mobile phones, even while enjoying a restful holiday at the beach. However, the phone battery may become exhausted completely. If that happens, they have no choice but to connect the phone to the power supply. But it’s impossible to get the battery charged at the beach. What’s worse, the hot sun is shining right overhead, and the water in the bottle is sure to reach a very high temperature.‎ Antoine Sayah, a university student from Lebanon, developed a special beach mat called the Beachill. It looks similar to the ordinary beach mat and will cause back pain as well. However, the device can recharge any mobile phone. It is designed to be water-resistant and has a 5-watt solar panel, which provides power continuously. The mat also has the refrigeration equipment that can help keep drinks cool, just like the refrigerator.‎ Antoine Sayah began selling the Beachill on the Internet for $150. He says he has been surprised at the reaction worldwide. “I have got orders for the device from Brazil, Toronto, all over Europe, especially France, America, from all continents.” The Beachill is also gaining popularity in other places, like swimming pools and boats.‎ Some people like the mat because it is lightweight and easy-to-carry. Rita Mathieu bought one of the Beachills. “When I am on the beach, I used to look around for a charger and never managed to find any and the water never stays cool,” she says. “So this kind of beach mat is wonderful and has everything in it, even a pocket where I can put a book. Thanks to it, I can surf the Internet and keep in touch with friends at any time at the beach.”‎ ‎25. The opening paragraph is mainly intended to ______.‎ A. show great pity for people at the beach B. attract the readers’ interest in the subject C. provide some key facts about mobile phones D. prove the importance of water in hot weather ‎26. What can we learn about the Beachill?‎ A. It is quite unusual in appearance.‎ B. It will stop working in the water.‎ C. It has some function of the refrigerator.‎ D. It functions more effectively than ordinary ones.‎ ‎27. Rita Mathieu is mentioned to prove the Beachill’s _______.‎ A. popularity B. convenience C. good quality D. low price ‎28. The text is written to _______.‎ A. tell people a new way to get a cold drink B. ask people to stop using phones at the beach C. encourage people to travel around the world D. introduce a beach mat that can charge a phone ‎ ‎ C Several years ago, a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America. One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world and the third owned many buildings in the centre of New York. The reporter was talking to them about being important.‎ ‎ “How do we know if someone is really important?” The reporter asked the banker.‎ ‎ The banker thought for a few moments and then said, “I think anybody who is invited to the White House to meet the President of the United States is really important.”‎ ‎ The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that?” She asked.‎ ‎ The man shook his head, “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You’d only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the President of another country, and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it.”‎ ‎ The reporter then turned to the third man, “Do you think so?”‎ ‎ “No, I don’t,” he said. “I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important. “‎ ‎ “Then what would make the visitor important?” The reporter and the other two men asked.‎ ‎ “Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang, and the President picked up the receiver, listened and then said, “It is for you.”‎ ‎29. The story happened in______.‎ A. England B. America C. Japan D. Australia ‎30. There are _____in this passage?‎ A. Two men and two women.‎ B. Three men and one woman.‎ C. Three women and one man.‎ D. Four women.‎ ‎31. The owner of many buildings thought_____.‎ A. he was important because he owned many buildings in the centre of New York.‎ B. the banker was really important.‎ C. the visitor was really important if he was talking to the President and the President received a telephone call for the visitor.‎ D. the person who worked in the White House was really important. ‎ D Wolves are important animals in the traditions and stories of most Native American tribes. To Native Americans, wolves often represent bravery. The animals also are signs of strength, loyalty, and success at hunting. Other cultures—such as the ancient Celtic and Nordic peoples—also placed high value on wolves.‎ However, from the wolves in horror films to the wolves in children’s stories, wolves get a bum rap(不公正的惩罚) in both literature and English expressions. To begin with, there is the term lone wolf. The lone wolf isn’t a bad person. But they like to do things on their own. However, the term can mean something less than desirable. Lone wolf makes you think the person doesn’t want to be around people because he or she dislikes them.‎ Now, let’s move on to the home.‎ Parents might criticize their children for wolfing down their food. In other words, the child eats very quickly and without care. And if someone says a child was raised ‎ by wolves, that child has bad manners and is behaving like a wild animal. A wolf at the door means someone to whom you owe money is waiting just outside your door.‎ By the way, there are two popular wolf-related expressions that come from Aesop, the ancient Greek storyteller.‎ The first is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. A wolf in sheep’s clothing describes someone who acts and looks nice on the outside but is bad on the inside.‎ Aesop’s other wolf fable also involves a shepherd, but not a hardworking one. He is known as the boy who cried wolf. People who cry wolf are not trusted. People are so familiar with this story, you simply have to say cry wolf for them to know what you mean.‎ ‎32. According to the passage, which group of people may think wolves are bad animals?‎ A. The ancient Nordic people. B. The ancient Celtic people.‎ C. Native Americans. D. The English people.‎ ‎33. Which of the following can describe a person who often acts alone?‎ A. A wild wolf. B. A lone wolf.‎ C. A wolf at the door. D. A wolf in sheep’s clothing.‎ ‎34. What may you probably mean by saying someone cries wolf?‎ A. The person is selfish. B. The person is a liar.‎ C. The person is stubborn. D. The person is a troublemaker.‎ ‎35. What is the passage mainly about?‎ A. Stories about wolves. B. The research on wolves.‎ C. Expressions about wolves. D. The cultural differences about wolves.‎ 第一节 ‎ (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两处为多余选项。‎ Eyesight plays a very important role in our daily life.

Since many people have arranged their journey for the Spring Festival, we should take some measures to remind people of the impolite behavior and improve it.‎ The first thing we need take into consideration is that we must respect and follow local customs. Besides, we’d better not talk loudly in public places to avoid disturbance to others. Also, be aware that queue jumping is unacceptable in many countries.‎ More importantly, if we travel abroad, we should bear in mind that we are representing our country, so we need to be cautious about how we act. Only in this way can we enjoy our trips and have beautiful memories as well.‎
