A

With more and more cars on the road, traffic jams are inevitable. Traffic jams can lead to increased accidents as there are more cars, with more people trying to get to their destination, all the while getting worse. Although it’s impossible to avoid traffic jams altogether, there are some tips you can follow to reduce the amount of time on the road.

Check for traffic jams before you leave. You can listen to the radio for traffic news, or check on the Internet to get up-to-minute information on traffic. If the route you want to take is heavy with traffic, you can choose another.

Look for a different route permanently. Most traffic jams occur on busy roads. Using country roads could see you avoiding a lot of traffic. Although the distance you may have to travel is further, it can work out quicker.

Set your car radio to receive traffic bulletins. Many new car stereo systems (汽车音响系统) are equipped with a radio system by which you can hear the traffic channel. This way you can get the latest traffic information and change your journey if necessary.

______________. Most traffic jams usually occur during rush hour, so try to avoid this time period if possible. Some jobs offer flexible working hours so that you can travel to work outside of rush hour. Some jobs even allow you to work at home so as to avoid commuting altogether. Ask your manager to see what you can do if traffic is a problem for you.

Use public transport alternatives where available. The easiest way to avoid traffic jams is to take buses or the underground instead of driving your own

car. Not only will you avoid traffic jams but you will most likely be saving money as the cost of motoring rises.

36.The underlined word “inevitable” in Paragraph 1 probably means _____.

A.hard to accept B.impossible to avoid

C.getting less serious D.seen everywhere

37. The author wrote the text in order to ______.

A. explain why there are traffic jams

B. tell us the negative effects of traffic jams

C.tell us what we can do on the road

D.tell us how to save time on the road

38. To get the latest traffic information, you could do the following EXCEPT ______.

A. surfing the Internet B.listening to the radio for traffic news

C.listening to the traffic channel D.turning to other drivers for information

394. Which of the following can be put in the blank in the text?

A. Choose a job that has flexible working hours

B. Try traveling at different time

C.Make friends with your manager

D.Work from home

40. According to the author, we should use public transport because_________

A. it is cheaper and can avoid traffic jams

B. it is useful for us

C. it is environmentally

D. it is completely free from traffic jams.

B

People who smoke could lose around one third of their daily memory, researchers say.

A study by a team at Northumbria University showed that smokers lost more of their memory when compared to non-smokers.

And the research also found that those who kicked the habit saw their ability to recollect information restored to almost the same level as non-smokers.

The study involved more than seventy 18-to-25-year-olds and included a tour of the university’s campus. Those who took part were asked to recall small details, such as a list of songs played at a campus concert and tasks completed

at various points-known as real world memory test. Smokers performed badly, remembering just 59 percent of tasks. But those who had given up smoking remembered 74 percent and those who had never smoked recalled 81 percent of tasks.

Dr. Tom Heffernan, who leads Northumbria University’s Collaboration for Drug and Alcohol Research Group, said the findings would be useful in anti-smoking campaigns. He said, “Given that there are up to 10 million smokers in the UK and as many as 45 million in the United States, it's important to understand the effects smoking has on everyday cognitive(认知的)function-of which prospective memory is an excellent example. ”

“This is the first time that a study has set out to examine whether giving up smoking has an impact on memory. We already know that giving up smoking has huge health benefits for the body, but this study also shows how stopping smoking can have knock-on benefits for cognitive functions too. ’’

The research will now investigate the effects of passive smoking on memory, while Dr. Heffernan and Dr. Terence O’Neil will look into the effects of third-hand smoking-toxins left on curtains and furniture.

41. What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Smoking does harm to health.

B. Smokers take a tour to the University’s campus.

C. Smoking can affect one’s memory.

D. Smokers are compared to non-smokers.

42. How did those who took part in the study perform when asked to recall small details?

A. Smokers did the worst among the participants.

B. Non-smokers could recall about half of them.

C. Smokers could recall nothing at all.

D. Those who gave up smoking did best.

43. According to Dr. Tom Heffernan, the findings_______.

A. would be really a surprise to the public

B. would contribute to fighting against smoking

C. would be used in real world memory test

D. would be nothing new to the researchers

44. What does the underlined word “impact’’ most probably mean?

A. order

B. impression

C. expression

D. effect

45. What will Dr. Heffernan and Dr Terence O’Neil do?

A. Investigate the effects of third-hand smoking.

B. Do research on how smoking affects passive smokers.

C. Find ways to persuade people to quit smoking.

D. Study whether giving up smoking affects memory.

C

What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.

We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In

some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.

Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”

46. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably

mean _______ while “dull” in the second paragraph means _______.

A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understanding

B. pretty and handsome; ordinary-looking

C. great and important; common

D. hopeful and helpful; careless

47. According to the context we can guess that a genius is ______ while an

idiot is _______.

A. a normal person; a funny person

B. a strong person; a weak person

C. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded person

D. a famous person; an ordinary person

48. A person ________ is more likely to become a genius.

A. whose parents are clever

B. often thinking about difficult problems

C. often helped by his parents and teachers

D. born with a good brain and putting it into active use

49. It is better for parents ________.

A. to praise and encourage their children more often

B. to be hard on their children

C. to leave their children alone with nothing to do

D. to give their children as much help as possible

50. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?

A. Parents play an important part in their children’s growth.

B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.

C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.

D. What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion.

D

Baby girls make their way directly for dolls as soon as they can crawl,while boys will head for cars,a study has shown.The findings,the first to show differences in very young babies,suggest there is a biological basis to their preferences.

Psychologists Dr Brenda Todd from City University London carried out an experiment involving 90 babies aged 9 months to 36 months.The babies were allowed to choose from seven toys.Some were typically boys' toys ---- a car,a digger,a ball and a blue teddy.The rest were girls' toys: a pink teddy,a doll and a cooking set.They were placed a meter away from the toys;and could pick whichever toy they liked their choice and the amount of time they spent playing with each toy were recorded.

Of the youngest children (9 to 14 months),girls spent significantly longer playing with the doll than boys,and boys spent much more time with the car and ball than the girls did.Among the two and three-year-olds,girls spent 50 percent of the time playing with the doll while only two boys briefly touched it.The boys spent almost 90 percent of their time playing with cars,which the girls barely touched.There was no link between the parents’ view on which toys were more appropriate for boys or girls,and the children's choice.

Dr Brenda Todd said,"Children of this age are already exposed to much socialization.Boys m ay be given‘toys that go’while girls get toys they can care for,which may help shape their preference .But these findings agree with the former idea that children show natural interests in particular kinds of toys.There could be a biological basis for their choices.Males through evolution have been adapted to prefer: moving objects,probably through hunting instincts(本能),while girls prefer warmer colors such as pink,the colour of a newborn baby."

51.Baby boys and girls have different toy preferences probably because____ A.baby boys are much more active

B.baby girls like bright colours more

C.their parents treat them differently

D.there is a natural difference between them

52.Both baby boys and baby girls like to play with____ according to the study.

A.a ball B.a teddy C.a car D.a doll . 53.What can we infer from Paragraph 3?

A.Nine-month-old baby boys don't play with dolls at all.

B.Two-year-old baby girls sometimes play with cars and balls.

C.The older the babies are,the more obvious their preference is.

D.Parents should teach their babies to share each other's toys.

54.What did Dr.Brenda Todd conclude from the results of the study?

A One reaction to all the concern about tropical deforestation(砍伐森林) is a blank stare that asks the question, "Since I don't live there, what does it have to do with me?" The answer is that your way of life, wherever you live in the world, is tied to the tropics in many ways. If you live in a house, wash your hair, eat fruits and vegetables, drink soda, or drive a car, you can be certain that you are affected by the loss of tropical forests. Take rubber(橡胶) for example. For many uses, only natural rubber from trees will do. Synthetics are not good enough. Today over half the world's commercial(商业的)rubber is produced in Malaysia and Indonesia, while the Amazon's rubber industry produces much of the world's four million tons. And rubber is an important material in making gloves, balloons, footwear and many sporting goods. Thousands of other tropical plants are valuable for their industrial use. Many scientists strongly believe that deforestation contributes to the greenhouse effect—or heating of the earth from increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. As we destroy forests, we lose their ability to change carbon dioxide into

Enough sleep helps the body and the brain grow and develop. However,many Chinese do not sleep well,and many do not pay enough attention to sleep. The Chinese Medical Doctor Association released the 2013 China Sleep Quality Index(指数)on March 19 to mark World Sleep Day---March 21. According to the index,nearly a quarter of Chinese people don’t sleep well.Half said that they feel tired after getting up and 15 percent people have trouble falling asleep. Ye Jingying,a sleep expert at Beijing Tongren hospital,says:“If people often wake up during the night,or always feel weak and tired in the day,they should pay at tention to their sleep pattern.” Many people play with their cell phones or i pads before sleeping.The report said that this is one of the main reasons for bad sleep.Other reasons include stress and bad moods. How to sleep well? Above all,get enough sleep.Seven to nine hours of sleep every night is perfect for an adult,and eight to nine hours is best for a teenager. Forming good sleep habits is important.The report suggested that people need to keep away from digital devices(数码产品)for at least an hour before sleep. The lights keep their brains excited for a long while.Other suggestions include:try to go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day,even on weekends and during holidays,and do the same relaxing things before bed each night,like listening to soft music.

Complete mastery demands continued learning until the age of 10 or 12.” The popularity if au pairs from China has been strengthened by the increasing numbers of American parents who want their children who want their children to learn Chinese.
