听第10段材料,回答第17至20题。
Feeling stressed lately?Has your doctor said he cannot find anything wrong with you?Perhaps he told you to go to a hospital,but all the fancy equipment there still showed that there was nothing wrong with you.Then consider this:you might be in a state of sub-health.Sub-health,also called the third state or the grey state,is described as a borderline between health and disease.According to a study by the National Health Organization,over 45 percent of sub-healthy people are middle-aged or elderly.The percentage is even higher among people who work in management positions,as well as students around exam time,due to their heightened exposure to stress.
The key to preventing and recovering from sub-health,according to some medical experts,is to form good habits,have a rest and take exercise regularly after work,and take part in open-air activities.As for meals,people are advised to eat less salt and sugar.They should eat more fresh vegetables,fruits,and fish because they are rich in nutritional elements—vitamins and trace elements—that are important to the body.
Nutrition experts point out that it is not good to eat too much at one meal because it may cause unhealthy changes in your body.They also say that a balanced diet is very helpful in avoiding sub-health.
17.How might you know if you are in a state of sub-health(亚健康)?
A.Your doctor tells you so.
B.The hospital tests show it.
C.You always feel tired with no evidence of disease.
答案:C
18.Who is most likely to be sub-healthy?
A.A middle-aged manager.
B.A student in the middle of summer vacation.
C.A young person who works as a cashier.
答案:A
19.What is mentioned as an effective way to prevent sub-health?

第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Many critics worry about violence on television,most out of fear that it stimulates viewers to violent or aggressive acts.Our research,however,indicates that the consequences of experiencing TV’s symbolic world of violence may be much more far-reaching.
We have found that people who watch a lot of TV see the real world as more dangerous and frightening than those who watch very little.Heavy viewers are less trustful of their fellow citizens,and more fearful of the real world.Since most TV “action-adventure” dramas occur in urban settings,the fear they inspire may contribute to the current flee of the middle class from our cities.The fear may also bring increasing demands for police protection,and election of law-and-order politicians.
While none of us is completely dependent upon television for our view of the world,neither have many of us had the opportunity to observe the reality of police stations,courtrooms,corporate board rooms,or hospital operating rooms.Although critics complain about the fixed characters and plots of TV dramas,many viewers look on them as representative of the real world.Anyone who questions that statement should read the 250,000 letters,most containing requests for medical advice,sent by viewers to “Marcus Welby,M.D.”—a popular TV drama series about a doctor—during the first five years of his practice on TV.
Violence on television leads viewers to regard the real world as more dangerous than it really is,which must also influence the way people behave.When asked,“Can most people be trusted?” the heavy viewers were 35 percent more likely to choose “Can’t be too careful.”
Victims,like criminals,must learn their proper roles,and televised violence may perform the teaching function all too well.Instead of worrying only about whether television violence causes individual displays of aggression in the real world,we should also be concerned about social reality.Passive acceptance of violence may result from far greater social concern than occasional displays of individual aggression.
We have found that violence on prime-time(黄金时段)network TV cultivates overstated threat of danger in the real world. The overstated sense of risk and insecurity may lead to increasing demands for protection,and to increasing pressure for the use of force by established authority.Instead of threatening the social order,television may have become our chief instrument of social control.

Mary Anning is the finder of fossils,born in England.People had found fossils before Mary.No one knew what they were.Were the animals turned to stone by magic?Were the animals that died in The Flood,like in the Bible story,Noah’s Ark?When Mary was a child,no one knew about these long-dead animals.Mary’s fossil-hunting helped change the way people thought about the world.
She came from a poor family.The family had nine children.Only Mary and her brother Joseph grew up.Mary’s father took his children along the beach.They picked up shells and stones to sell to visitors.In 1811 Mary and Joseph were fossil hunting.Joseph saw a skull (头盖骨) sticking out of the rock.Mary had a hammer to chip away at the rock.Very carefully she uncovered a skeleton (骨架).It looked like a crocodile.She had found the first complete fossil ‘ichthyosaurus’,or ‘fish-lizard’.Mary did not go to school much.And schools did not teach children about fossils.Mary could read and write.She taught herself.She learned about rocks and how bodies are made.Most days Mary went fossil hunting with her dog,Tray.
Mary was not trained as a scientist,but her finds changed science.Mary made only one trip away from home in her whole life.Famous scientists came to see her.They wanted to see the fossils she found.Fossils are the hard remains of animals that died long ago.Fossils are clues about prehistoric (史前的) life 200 million years ago,and Dorset was beneath the sea.The sea was alive with strange animals.How evolution works was explained by Charles Darwin,not long after Mary died.Her fossils had helped scientists understand how things began.

Getting rid of dirt,in the opinion of most people,is a good thing.However,there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.
In the early 16th century,people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease,as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in.A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths.By 1538,the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom.So did the king of England in 1546.Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way.Henry Ⅳ,King of France,was famously dirty.Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath,the king ordered that,to avoid the attack of disease,the nobleman should not go out.
Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived,dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century.Scientifically speaking,cleaning away dirt is good to health.Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease.Yet,it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ.Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea:clothes need to be whiter than white,cloths ever softer,surfaces to shine.Has the hate for dirt,however,gone too far?
Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays.Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt,which might be responsible for the spread of disease.On the contrary,Mary Ruebush,an American immunologist(免疫学家),encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system.And the latter position is gaining some ground.
【语篇导读】数百年来,人们对待灰尘的态度也在不断发生变化。现在免疫学家鼓励孩子在灰尘中嬉戏以增强免疫力。
32.The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because .
A.they lived healthily in a dirty environment
B.they believed disease could be spread in public baths
C.they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay in
D.they considered bathing as the cause of skin disease
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths.”可知,他们都认为洗澡堂里面存在危险,有可能传播疾病。
33.Which of the following best describes Henry Ⅳ’s attitude to bathing?
A.Uninterested. B.Curious.
C.Approving. D.Afraid.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Henry ,King of France,was famously dirty...the king ordered that,to avoid the attack of disease,the nobleman should not go out.”可以推知,亨利四世害怕洗澡。
34.How does the passage mainly develop?
A.By following the order of time.
B.By making comparisons.
C.By providing examples.
D.By following the order of importance.
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据文中出现的各个时代对灰尘的态度可以推知,作者是按照时间线索介绍人们对灰尘的态度变化。
35.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A.To stress the role of dirt.
B.To introduce the history of dirt.
C.To present the change of views on dirt.
D.To call attention to the danger of dirt.
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。通读全文,可以推知C项为正确答案。
第二节(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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How Can I Fight Laziness?
Lazy people will never amount to anything in life.However,laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.
36 Many people lack sleep constantly,since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work.These people have little motivation once they arrive home.Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things.By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest,you can fight laziness throughout the day.
Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active.Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task.Others take a more proactive approach,viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone. 37
Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations(诱惑) that surround them.A television in the living room may provide entertainment,but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness. 38 Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy,such as a good dinner or a film.Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home.Couples and children may all have different energy levels,but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately. 39 Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal.Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task.It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people.
40 Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle,thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.
A.To fight family laziness,set an example.
B.Knowing how to fight laziness is important.
C.One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep.
D.Finally,taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness.
E.With strong determination,you will be able to achieve your goal.
F.Laziness sets in when you no longer feel in charge of your own life.
G.Create a reward system for yourself,just as parents do for the children.

Dear Editor,
I’m a senior high school student.It’s reported that in China many children in mountainous areas still can’t go to school because of poverty.Last week,our class held a discussion about how to help them to go to school and live a happy childhood.
Here are our suggestions.First,some old textbooks and clothes can be collected and sent to those children so that they can be reused by them.Second,it’s also very important to appeal to more people and social organizations to help and care for those poor children.As far as I’m concerned,we should save some of our pocket money and give it to those children in need.Above all,we should give them respect,never looking down upon them because they are poor.
We’ll really appreciate it if you can,through the English Weekly,increase public awareness of the poor children’s living conditions and call on more people to help them.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
