A study carried out in China found adults regularly consuming raw garlic as part of their diet were 44 per cent less likely to suffer the disease. Even when researchers allowed for whether people ‎ smoked - the biggest single cause of lung cancer - they found garlic still seemed to reduce the dangers by around 30 per cent. ‎ Around 40,000 people a year are diagnosed with lung cancer in England and Wales alone. Smoking is thought to cause at least 80 per cent of cases and fewer than one in ten sufferers are still alive five years after their diagnosis. Previous studies have suggested garlic can protect the lungs against various conditions, as well as ward off other malignancies such as bowel (肠) cancer. ‎ One study at the University of South Australia suggested the popular herb could slash the risk of bowel tumours（肿瘤）by nearly a third. In the latest investigation, scientists at Jiangsu Provincial Centre for Disease Control and Prevention compared 1,424 lung cancer patients with 4,500 healthy adults. Each one was quizzed on their dietary and lifestyle habits, including how often they consumed garlic and whether they smoked. ‎ The results, published online in the journal Cancer Prevention Research, showed those who ate raw garlic at least twice a week were significantly less likely to get lung cancer, even if they smoked or were exposed to high-temperature cooking oil fumes, thought to be another cause for the disease. It's not clear whether cooked garlic would have the same effect. ‎ But previous research suggests the key ingredient seems to be a chemical called allicin. It is thought to ease inflammation(炎症) in the body and act as an anti-oxidant, reducing damage from so-called free radicals to the body's cells. Other studies have found it may help ward off the common cold, hospital superbugs and even malaria. ‎ ‎21. What does the passage mainly tell us? ‎ A. Eating raw garlic can get rid of the risk of lung cancer.‎ B. Eating raw garlic can reduce the risk of all cancers greatly. ‎ C. Eating raw garlic can reduce the risk of lung cancer greatly.‎ D. Eating raw garlic can slightly reduce the risk of lung cancer.‎ ‎22. What does the underlined phrase “ward off” mean? ‎ A. Prevent. B. Increase. C. Promote. D. Advance. ‎ ‎23. How did scientists in Jiangsu carry out their research? ‎ A. By requesting patient to take herb. ‎ B. By comparing patients with the healthy. ‎ C. By surveying the patients’ smoking amount. ‎ D. By surveying the amount of consumed garlic. ‎ ‎24. According to the passage, scientists are uncertain about _________. ‎ A. the effect of smoke B. the effect of raw garlic ‎ C. the effect of cooked garlic D. the effect of cooking oil fumes ‎ B Passenger jets are hit by lightning every 1,000 hours—on average twice a year—and experts say the risk from the bolts of electricity is growing.‎ But technical experts, who were astounded like everyone else by the disappearance of an Air France jet in the Atlantic with the feared loss of 228 lives, say lightning alone could not have caused it to crash into the ocean.‎ Air France has said the A300-200 jet was probably hit by lightning as it passed through a violent storm on the flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris on Monday.‎ But the airline's chief executive Pierre-Henry Gourgeon said it suffered multiple technical failures before falling off radar screens.‎ ‎"A dozen technical messages" sent by the jet showed that "several electrical systems had broken down," said Gourgeon.‎ ‎"It is probable that it was shortly after these messages that the impact in the Atlantic came," he added.‎ Nearly every commercial pilot has a tale of coming through a lightning storm and on average a plane is hit by lightning every 1,000 hours.‎ ‎"Lightning could cause a mechanical problem, it could hit the aircraft through, but usually it can continue to fly," said Vincent Fave, an expert airline accident investigator said.‎ Yves Deshayes, of the French national airline pilots union (SNPL) said a lightning strike could be damage a plane's communications and navigation systems.‎ ‎"But in a plane the systems are doubled, even tripled, so a lightning strike that threatens the security of a flight, and even the state of the aircraft, is extremely rare," he said.‎ Deshayes suggested that a lighting strike could explain why there was no radio contact with the Air France plane, but nothing more.‎ ‎"It is hard to imagine lightning hitting a plane and making it explode. It could cause a number of breakdowns, more or less serious, but to my knowledge there are no incidents of planes which were blown up by a lightning strike," he said.‎ ‎25. This article mainly talks about ____________________________.‎ ‎ A. the cause of the recent air crash of Air France ‎ B. lightnings’ bad effects on air flights ‎ C. the reasons why lightnings come about ‎ D. international businesses of Air France26. Most experts mentioned in this passage think that_______________________________.‎ ‎ A. lightning must have led to the disappearance of an Air France jet ‎ B. lightnings hit the plane and made it explode and crash into the ocean ‎ C. lightnings might have been one of several causes of the aircraft’s crash D. lightnings couldn’t have been one of several causes of the aircraft’s crash ‎27. What does the underlined word “astound” in this passage most probably mean?‎ ‎ A. Disappoint B. Astonish C. Excite D. Delight C Monarch butterflies are one of the two species of butterfly that will live in orbit aboard the International Space Station.‎ The butterflies, which are currently caterpillars (毛毛虫), will be transferred to the station to live out their lives in orbit. Atlantis launched on Monday for an 11-day mission to resupply the space station. It is scheduled to reach the orbital outpost on Wednesday.‎ ‎"This is a case where we really don't know that much about how these organisms will survive in very small gravity," she said. "That's a unique opportunity for students."‎ Pictures of the butterflies will be taken every 15 minutes and relayed to project organizers on the ground who will post the images on websites. Baylor developed teachers' guide and curriculum to help budding scientists design their own butterfly habitats and experiments.‎ The butterflies, which typically have a lifespan of about a month, will remain aboard the space station until the next shuttle flight in February.‎ NASA attempted the experiment a year ago, but none of the creatures grew past larvae(幼虫) ,said John Uri, NASA's deputy manager of space station payloads.‎ ‎"The problem was that the food they flew, and it turned out it was poor quality, and that's why the butterflies didn't develop," Uri told Discovery News. "They're hoping that with brand new food that's been totally tested that this group will do OK."‎ Two species of butterflies are aboard the shuttle: painted lady and monarchs. Scientists and students will be comparing how the space butterflies grow and develop compared to butterflies on the ground.‎ The animals will be contained in special habitats aboard the space station.‎ ‎"They're not going to be flying around or anything," Uri said.‎ More than 2,000 teachers have signed up to download the guide for the project's website, Moreno said. Organizations involved in the project include BioServe Space Technologies and the University of Colorado in Boulder.‎ ‎28. What does this passage mainly talk about?‎ ‎ A. The shuttle Atlantis will be launched into the International Space Station.‎ ‎ B. Scientists will do several experiments in the lab with butterflies.‎ ‎ C. Two species of butterflies will be launched with Atlantis to live in orbit.‎ ‎ D. Painted lady and monarchs are the only two species of butterflies surviving.‎ ‎29. How long can a butterfly usually live?‎ ‎ A. A year B. Thirty days C. Eleven days D. Three months ‎30. We can learn from this passage that _____________________________.‎ ‎ A. it takes Atlantis 11 days to fly to and back from the space station ‎ B. monarchs are sent into orbit when they have changed into butterflies ‎ ‎ C. no schools or universities have been involved in this scientific experiment D. there is no gravity at all in orbit aboard the International Space Station ‎ ‎ D Do you love holidays but hate the increase weight that follows? You are not alone.    Holidays are happy days with pleasure and delicious foods.

Dishes that look oily or creamy have much fat in them.     Choose lean meat(瘦肉 ).Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables.     If you have a sweet tooth, try mints (薄荷) and fruits.

Opinions are divided on this topic.‎ Most students are in favor of this activity. They believe that the activity in winter can not only help improve physical health but develop a strong will. Besides, it's a good way to relieve stress. On the other hand, a minority of the students are opposed to it. They think the activity is too dull. In addition, there is so much heavy study and it's so cold outside that they would rather stay in the classroom to study.‎ As far as I'm concerned, I support the activity because it benefits us greatly. The modern society requires many qualities of us, so bookworms can't keep up with the times any longer.‎
