　　After spending 13 years raising three boys, Stephanie Connolly wanted to get back into the workforce, but she was worried that her computer skills were obsolete. Not only was the long employment break a concern, but she had never used Microsoft Office programs. Her last employer had only used WordPerfect.

　　A year later, Connolly is so skilled in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint that she is helping others, and has just completed a fixed amount of work as a teaching assistant in a computer class. She's also on the job hunt, armed with a new resume (简历), interview skills, and the latest knowledge of how to conduct Internet job searches, fill out Web­based applications, and upload resumes.

　　“I can walk through the doors of the company and feel very confident. The course instructors have given that to me，” said Connolly, who owed her development to classes offered by the Harvard Allston Workforce Development Collaboration (HAWDC).The collaboration is part of a series of programs, and neighborhood improvements that began with an agreement reached between Harvard University and the city of Boston five years ago.

　　The agreement grew out of discussions

　　between the University and the city over the construction of Harvard's science Complex in Allston. Although the construction paused in 2009, the implementation (实施) of the non­construction­related aspects of the agreement has continued.

　　What has meant to the neighbors is the opening of the Harvard Allston Education Portal, a community­centered education facility that serves as Harvard's front door to the neighborhood and access to certain University programs and facilities. Information about the agreement's benefits to the community, as well as about Harvard's deep ties with Cambridge and Boston, is available on the new community­oriented Public Affairs website.

　　A.out of reach

　　B.out of date

　　D.out of danger

　　2.Which of the following words can best describe Connolly's attitude to the HAWDC?

　　A.Critical.

　　________.

　　A.benefits people living in Boston

　　1．解析：选B　词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“she had never used Microsoft Office programs. Her last employer had only used WordPerfect.”可知，她担心她的计算机技能“过时”了。2．解析：选B　态度观点题。根据第三段中的“I can walk through the doors of the company and feel very confident. The course instructors have given that to me”可知，Connolly因为学习了该项目的课程，变得很自信，可推断她对这一协作项目心存感激。3．解析：选A　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“the Harvard Allston Education Portal, a community­centered education facility that serves as Harvard's front door to the neighborhood”可知，该项目使波士顿当地人受益。4．解析：选D　文章出处题。根据最后一段中的“a community­centered education facility that serves as Harvard's front door to the neighborhood”可知，本文最可能出现在哈佛大学网站中与社区有关的板块里。B

　　(2016·日照市校际检测)“Friendly doctors are bad for their patients' health，” researchers have warned as a new study revealed two thirds of young doctors struggle to be truthful with patients they like.

　　Blurring (使……变得模糊不清) the lines between social and professional relationships can affect the level of care offered and prevent patients from being honest about important side effects.

　　“Doctors should avoid adding patients as friends on Facebook, and they should not hug or allow patients to call them by their first names，” regulators have warned. “Those who break the boundaries will face some punishment.”

　　It comes as a survey of 338 oncologists (肿瘤学家) under the age of 40, finding 59 per cent said they found it difficult to tell the truth to those patients they like. Sixty per cent of respondents said if doctors felt too close to their patients, it could prevent them from making objective decisions about a person's care.

　　Lesley Fallowfield of Brighton and Sussex Medical School said：“Oncology is a profession that can be enormously rewarding but is filled with many challenges. Young oncologists have to master the means of dealing with anxious patients who are facing a life­threatening disease, conveying the true prognosis (预断), discussing the complexity of modern treatments, and explaining the unavailability of some drugs, the side effects of treatments, and likely treatment aims.”

　　But she also said, “Those doctors who have entered the profession in the age of ‘the Internet world’ are more likely to fall victim to blurring the professional boundaries with patients.”

　　She said，“The difficulty, if you hug and kiss patients, if you allow them to call you by your first name, is that quickly the relationship can become confusing as a social one rather than a professional one. Doctors become confused, ‘I really like these people, how

　　can I bear to tell them that they're going to die？’ They find it more difficult to be objective.”

　　1.Why are friendly doctors bad for their patients' health?

　　A.Because they don't like to cheat patients.

　　B.Because they are not good at treating patients.

　　C.Because they find it not easy to be objective to the patients.

　　D.Because they seldom blur the relationship with patients.

　　2.What should doctors do according to the regulators?

　　A.Add patients as friends on Facebook.

　　B.Have a close connection with patients in life.

　　C.Always be cold to patients.

　　D.Keep patients at a proper distance.

　　3.Young oncologists will face the following challenges EXCEPT ________.

　　A.dealing with a lot of life­threatening diseases

　　B.discussing difficulties of treatments with patients

　　C.explaining the unavailability of some medicines

　　D.informing patients of the possible results of the treatments。

　　4.Which opinion will Lesley Fallowfield agree with?

　　A.Oncology is a rewarding profession without challenges.

　　B.The Internet makes it easier for young doctors to break the boundaries.

　　C.It's not the doctors' duty to deal with patients' anxiety.

　　D.Becoming friends with patients will help them recover soon.

　　1．解析：选C　细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“two thirds of young doctors struggle to be truthful with patients they like”及最后一段中的“They find it more difficult to be objective.”可知，三分之二的年轻医生很难对他们喜欢的病人讲实话，他们很难客观地对待病人，这样对患者的治疗不利，故选C项。

　　．解析：选D　细节理解题。根据文章的第三段可知，医生应该避免在脸谱网上添加患者为朋友，他们也不应该拥抱病人或让病人直呼他们的名字，即医生应该和病人保持适当的距离，故选D项。

　　．解析：选A　细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“Young oncologists have to master ... and likely treatment aims.”可知，B、C、D三项表述正确；年轻的肿瘤学家需要掌握如何对待面临生命威胁的焦虑病人，A项“处理很多威胁生命的疾病”表述错误。故选A项。

　　．解析：选B　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“Those doctors who have entered ... boundaries with patients.”可推知，网络使得医生更容易模糊与病人之间的职业分界线，故选B项。C

　　Today, ultrasonic(超声的) waves are being put to work in laboratories and factories. If an ultrasound generator is placed in a liquid, the waves move the liquid back and forth hundreds of thousands of times each second. This causes materials to mix quickly or to dissolve(使分解，使溶解) in liquids. Paint manufacturers(制造商) use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors. The companies that make film for your camera find that mixing chemicals by the use of sound waves will produce a more sensitive film.

　　The new lightweight(轻量的) type of washing machine uses ultrasonic waves to get clothes clean. Its special ultrasound generator is put into a pail of soapy water containing the soiled clothes. The sound waves drive the soapy water back and forth through the cloth so fast that everything is soon clean. There is also a new kind of dishwasher that works in much the same way.

　　Ultrasonic waves can shake a liquid so fast that tiny holes form all through it. The liquid is actually torn apart by this action. Almost as soon as these holes are made, they fall together again. The result is a powerful pounding action. In the dairy industry this is used for the double purpose of making homogenized(使均匀，使匀质) milk and sterilizing(使无菌) it at the same time. If you look at some raw milk with a microscope, you find that it is made up of little drops of butter fat floating around in a watery liquid. In order to make milk easier to digest, these fat droplets(微粒) may be broken up by forcing the milk through very small openings. The result is called homogenized milk. When the ultrasonic method is used, the sound waves not only break up the droplets but also kill the germs in the milk by pounding them to pieces. (from www.nmet168.com)

　　1. Why does a paint manufacturer use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors?

　　A. Because it is cheap to use ultrasound to blend colors.

　　B. Because the waves move the liquid so quickly that it can make materials mix quickly or dissolve in liquids.

　　C. Because they can mix chemicals by the use of sound waves.

　　D. Because the waves can clean the paint.

　　2. What properties does ultrasound wave have?

　　A. Homogenizes and sterilizes the milk.

　　B. Mix materials and break droplets.

　　C. Kill germs and sterilize milk.

　　D. Move liquids quickly.

　　3. What exists in the raw milk?

　　A. Little drops of butter fat.

　　B. Small holes.

　　C. Fat droplets and germs.

　　D. Chemicals.

　　4. Where is ultrasound wave not used?

　　A. In the paint manufacture.

　　B. In the shop mixing bread flour.

　　C. In the film-making company.

　　D. In the dairy industry.

　　1. B 事实细节题。根据其上句 This causes materials to mix quickly or to dissolve(使分解，使溶解) in liquids 可知，答案选 B。

　　2. D 事实细节题。根据文章最后一段的第 1 句 Ultrasonic waves can shake a liquid so fast that tiny holes form all through it可知，答案选 D。

　　3. C 事实细节题。根据文章最后一段的内容，特别是最后一句 When the ultrasonic method is used, the sound waves not only break up the droplets but also kill the germs in the milk by pounding them to pieces 可知，答案选 C

　　4. B 推理判断题。根据文章第 1 段最后提到的 Paint manufacturers(制造商)…以及The companies that make film… 两句排除选项 A、C，根据第 3 段第 5 句的 In the dairy industry this is used for… 排除选项 D，从而得出答案是 B。

　　Health and Sports

　　Good health is very important to everyone. A healthy person can always be energetic and enjoy his life. A person who is in poor health cannot work well.

　　When it comes to keeping healthy, playing sports enjoys widespread popularity among people. As high school students, we must study hard and take many important exams, which may make many students feel nervous. So it's necessary to take exercise regularly to help release stress. Physical exercise can help make muscles strong. What's more, while playing, we get relaxed, which can help us study more efficiently.

　　Since sports can make us physically and mentally healthy, we should do sports every day no matter how busy we are. Do remember that good health is the best wealth.
