  阅读理解。

  An idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond. The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same tome.

  In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起)the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.

  In Chicago, the mayor(市长)appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program. As a result, reading clubs and neighbourhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character.

  The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致)can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their energy

  And passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.

  Ultinatel was Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process. or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.

  (

  ) 1. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?

  A. To invite authors to guide readers.

  B. To encourage people to read and share.

  C. To involve people in community service.

  D. To promote the friendship between cities.

  (

  ) 2.Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?

  A. They had little interest in reading.

  B. They were too busy to read a book.

  C. They came from many different backgrounds

  (

  ) 3. According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?

  A. In large communities with little sense of unity

  B. In large cities where libraries are far from home

  C. In medium-sized cities with a diverse population

  D. In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached

  (

  ) 4.The underlined words “shared a word” in Paragraph 5 probably mean

  A. exchanged ideas with each other

  B. discussed the meaning of a word

  C. gamed life experience

  D. used the same language

  (

  ) 5.According to Nacy, the degree of students of the project is judged by

  【科普知识型---阅读理解】

  Doctors sometimes prescribe light therapy to treat a form of depression in people who get too little morning sun. But too much light at other time may actually cause such mood disorders. Longlasting exposure to light at night brings depression, a new study finds, at least in animals.

  The new data confirm observations from studies of people who work night shifts, says Richard Stevens of the University of Connecticut Health Centre. Mood disorders join a growing list of problems, including cancer, obesity and diabetes—that can occur when light throws life out of balance by disturbing the biological clock and its timing of daily rhythms.

  In the new study, Tracy Bedrosian and Randy Nelson of Ohio State University exposed mice to normal light and dark cycles for four weeks. For the next four weeks, half of the mice remained on this schedule, and the rest received continuous dim light throughout their night. Compared with mice exposed to normal nighttime darkness, those getting dim light at night lost their strong preference for sweet drinks,“a sign they no longer get pleasure out of activities they once enjoyed,” Bedrosian says.

  In a second test, mice were clocked on how long they actively tried to escape a pool of water. Those exposed to night lights stopped struggling and just floated in the water, a sign of “behavioural despair”,10 times as long as the mice that had experienced normal nighttime darkness. All symptoms of depression disappeared within two weeks of the mice returning to a normal lightdark cycle, the researchers report. The scientists also could quash the behavioural symptoms by injecting (注射)the brains of animals with a drug that prohibits the activity of certain molecules linked with human depression. This finding further suggests that light at night may cause something related to depression.

  Human studies linking nighttime light and mood disorders are important but can't easily detect molecular underpinnings (分子结构)as animal studies can,says George Brainard of Thomas Jefferson University. The new work, he says, suggests that the change of the biological clock by light at night can be “an extremely powerful force in regulating biology and behaviour”.

  1.After being exposed to continuous nighttime light,the mice ________.

  A.changed their preferences

  B.escaped from the water more eagerly

  C.remained active as before

  D.showed less interest in their favourites

  2.What does the underlined word “quash” in Para. 4 probably mean?

  A.Study.B.Predict.C.Ease.D.Cause.

  3.We can learn from the last paragraph that ________.

  A.light at night may have practical value

  B.the biological clock is beneficial to humans

  C.human mood disorders cannot be healed easily

  D.human studies are more important than animal studies

  4.What is the main idea of the passage?

  A.Nighttime light may foster depression.

  B.A drug has been found to cure mood disorders.

  C.The study on animals can be applied to humans.

  D.Human biological clock can be controlled by light.

  【要点综述】光照疗法可以治疗抑郁症,但是,新的研究表明长期暴露于夜晚的灯光也可带来抑郁症,这项研究至少在动物身上得到了验证。

  1.D 细节理解题。根据“Compared with mice exposed to normal nighttime darkness,those getting dim light at night lost their strong preference for sweet drinks…”可知,那些在夜晚持续接受暗淡灯光的老鼠失去了对于甜饮料的浓厚喜好,即没有那么喜欢甜饮料了,故选D项。

  2.C 词义猜测题。通过原文quash前面also可以断定,quash的意思等于前面一句话的意思,即症状消失了,故选ease“缓解,减轻”。

  3.A 推理判断题。根据最后一句可知,灯光可以影响生物钟,生物钟的改变可以影响行为,故选择A项。

  4.A 主旨大意题。根据文章首段“Doctors sometimes prescribe light therapy to treat a form of depression in people who get too little morning sun.But too much light at other time may actually cause such mood disorders.”可知,本文主要讨论nighttime light与mood disorder或depression的关系,故A项正确。

  Blind imitation (模仿)is self-destruction. To those who do not recognize their unique worth. Imitation appears attractive: to those who know their strength. Imitation is unacceptable.

  In the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook, I used recipes (菜谱) and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone else’s way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a child’s bicycle; they help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them.

  In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously (下意识地) hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others.

  In the field of entertainment, our culture glorifies celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.

  Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply. They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination.

  Syudy your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not server. Then you can say,” I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors” tragedies and tory, and know that they are cheering on.

  .

  A. know you are unique

  B. lose the balance of life

  C. begin to learn something new

  In the fall of 1985. I was a bright-eyed girl heading off to Howard University, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later I am later I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.

  My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college an the age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.

  Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopt and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic---and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No. 3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.

  You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 81. Our home was a complete zoo---a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant talking as few as one class each semester.

  The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, But I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.

  In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree!

  I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you’re looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you’re in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won’t arrive in your life on one day. It’s a process. Remember;little steps add up to big dreams.
