阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出一个最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
In most parts of the world, many students help their schools make less pollution. They join “environment clubs”. In an environment club, people work together to make our environment clean.
● No-garbage lunches. How much do you throw away after lunch Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used again. Every week they will choose the classes that make the least garbage and report them to the whole school!
● No-car day. On the no-car day, nobody comes to school by car--not the students and not the teachers! Cars give pollution to the air, so remember:
Walk, jump, bike or run.
Use your legs! It’s lots of fun!
● Turn off the water! Did you know that some toilets can waste twenty to forty m3 of water an hour In a year that would fill a small river! In environment clubs, students mend those broken toilets.
We love our environment. Let’s work together to make it clean.
1. Environment clubs ask students ________.
A. not to forget to take cars B. to go to school by car every day
C. not to throw away lunch bags D. to do exercise every day

A. much water B. a lot of money C. a long river D. a toilet
3. The writer wrote the passage to ask students to ________.
A. walk to school every day B. help teachers

【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used again. (环境俱乐部要求学生们把午餐装在可以再次适用的袋子里)”可知,环境俱乐部要求学生不要扔装午餐的袋子。故选C。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“ Did you know that some toilets can waste twenty to forty cubic (立方) meters of water an hour In a year, that would fill a small river! In environment clubs, students mend those broken toilets.”(你知道吗,有些厕所一小时可以浪费掉二十到四十立方的水?一年之内,这会填满一条小河!在环境俱乐部,学生们修理那些损坏的厕所)可知,学生们修补那些损坏的厕所可以节约大量的水,故选A。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“In most parts of the world, many students help their schools make less pollution. They join “environment clubs(俱乐部)”. In an environment club, people work together to make our environment clean. Here are some things students often do.”(在世界大部分地区,许多学生帮助他们的学校减少污染。他们加入了“环境俱乐部”。在一个环境俱乐部中,人们共同努力使我们的环境干净整洁。有一些事是学生经常做的)且通读全文可知,第一段是中心思想,第二,三,四段是学生所做的减少环境污染的事,所以作者写这篇文章的目的是为了告诉学生要减少环境污染,故选D。
B
Ryan Hreljac is a boy living in Canada. Without his help, hundreds of wells that now provide fresh water for people in Africa, Central America and India might never have been built. Ryan is what you might call a water ambassador(大使). He traveled the world to tell people how they can help solve a big problem: the lack of safe drinking water in many developing countries.
Ryan’s efforts didn’t begin in a far-off place, but right at home in Kemptville, Ontario.
When he was 6 years old, Ryan learned from his teacher that children in Africa often must walk miles each day to find water. Some even die from drinking bad water, his teacher said.
So Ryan decided to act. He did chores for his parents and neighbors. He spoke to schools, churches, and clubs about his goal. The word spread. After several months of hard work, Ryan had raised $ 2, 000, enough to dig one well.
An organization called Canadian Physicians for Aid and Relief (CPAR) chose a site for the well in the village of Agweo, in Uganda. Two years later, CPAR arranged for Ryan to visit Uganda for the opening ceremony of the well. Ryan met a new friend named Jimmy. Then they formed a close friendship. He often traveled with Ryan to explain how water changed his life.
After the first well, “the ripple(涟漪) effect took over,” Ryan says, “and one goal led to another. ” With adult help, he founded Ryan’s Well Foundation to educate people about the importance of water. Now the foundation has raised more than $ 1. 5 million and built 255 wells that serve more than 427, 000 people in 12 countries. Ryan has received many awards but he isn’t bragging(炫耀). “The most impressive people I’ve met are the other kids who want to help too,” he says. “I’m just a typical kid. I had a small dream, and I stayed with it. Everybody can do something.”
4. What problem is Ryan working to solve
A. The effect of poverty on children.
B. The diseases caused by polluted water.
C. A lack of safe drinking water.
D. A lack of money to save water.
5. How did Ryan earn money for his first well
A. He created an educational foundation.
B. He traveled to villages across the world.
C. He started a website to ask for donations.
D. He did chores and sold his idea.
6. To make a dream come true, what would be the most important for Ryan
A. Making friends.
B. Not giving up.
C. Knowing his limits.
D. Not bragging about awards.
7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. A Story of a Well
B. A Boy Who Makes a Difference
C. An Organization of Saving Water
D. A Well That Brought People Together
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了加拿大男孩Ryan Hreljac为非洲、中美洲和印度人民提供数百口淡水的井的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“He traveled the world to tell people how they can help solve a big problem: the lack of safe drinking water in many developing countries.(他周游世界,告诉人们如何帮助解决一个大问题:许多发展中国家缺乏安全饮用水。)”可知,Ryan 帮助解决的问题是许多发展中国家缺少安全的饮用水。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“He did chores for his parents and neighbors. He spoke to schools, churches, and clubs about his goal. The word spread. After several months of hard work, Ryan had raised $ 2, 000, enough to dig one well.(他为父母和邻居做家务。他向学校、教堂和俱乐部讲述了他的目标。消息传播开来。经过几个月的辛勤工作,瑞安筹集了2000美元,足够挖一口井了。)”可知,Ryan通过他做家务,推销他的想法,为第一口井筹集了资金。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“I’m just a typical kid. I had a small dream, and I stayed with it. Everybody can do something.(我只是个普通的孩子。我有一个小小的梦想,我一直坚持着。每个人都能做点什么。)”可知,为了实现梦想,对于Ryan来说最重要的就是不要放弃。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。阅读文章内容,并根据第一段“Ryan Hreljac is a boy living in Canada. Without his help, hundreds of wells that now provide fresh water for people in Africa, Central America and India might never have been built. (Ryan Hreljac是一个住在加拿大的男孩。如果没有他的帮助,现在为非洲、中美洲和印度人民提供数百口井淡水井可能永远不会建成。)”可知,本文主要讲述了加拿大男孩Ryan Hreljac为非洲、中美洲和印度人民提供数百口井淡水的故事,他的行为改变了很多人的生活。所以短文的最佳标题为“ 一个与众不同的男孩”。故选B。
C
Doctors say you had better use it before you lose it. The more you sit each day, the more chance you have of getting sick.
Richard Rosenkranz of Kansas State University was among the researchers. He said people who sat for long periods were at great risk of diseases when compared with those who sat less. He said that was especially true for some chronic (慢性的) diseases.
Richard Rosenkranz studied the relationship between sitting and chronic diseases in middle-aged Australian men. He worked with researchers from the University of Western Sydney. They examined the health records of more than 63,000 men from New South Wales. The men were between the ages of 45 and 65. The men reported about what diseases they had, or did not have. And they kept record of the amount of time each day that they sat.
The study also showed that exercising every morning for 30minutes did not reduce the health risk if you spend the next eight hours sitting at the desk. Mr. Rosenkranz said it was important to make sure you exercise. But he said it was also important to find ways not to sit so much during the day.
Many jobs today require sitting and working at the desk all day. James Levine works at the Mayo Clinic in the United Sates. He suggests working while standing at high table some of the time instead of sitting at a desk. Dr. Levine also suggests standing while using the telephone or eating. Or he advises walking with the people you work with for an on-foot meeting. And he notes that if you spend more time on your feet, you may have muscle activity that helps burn fats and sugars in your body.
8. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph implies that ________.
A. doctors should treat all the patients well
B. doctors should make use of every method
C. one should value his health before he loses it
D. one should depend on himself to keep healthy
9. How did Richard Rosenkranz make the study
A. By examining some records and reports.
B. By making some laboratory experiments.
C. By talking with the doctors and patients.
D. By watching the men’s daily performance.
10. According to Dr. Levine, in order to avoid the harm of long-time sitting, one should ________.
A. exercise more often
B. change his job
C. stay away from the desk
D. stand or walk more
11. Where does this text probably come from
A. A fashion magazine B. A health magazine
C. A biology textbook D. A life guide
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要说明久坐影响人的健康,建议经常坐着工作的人尽可能多的站立或行走。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。 “Doctors say you had better use it before you lose it.” 医生说你最好在失去它之前使用它。而本文主要讲述的是久坐影响健康,因此中心思想同健康有关,因此推断it指的是健康,所以这句话暗示人们在失去健康之前要珍惜健康,故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。 文中“They examined the health records of more than 63,000 men from New South Wales. The men were between the ages of 45 and 65. The men reported about what diseases they had, or did not have.”他们检查了来自新南威尔士州的63,000多名男子的健康记录。这些人年龄在45岁到65岁之间。这些人报告了他们有或没有患过什么疾病。由此可知Richard Rosenkranz是通过检查一些记录和报告来进行研究的,故选A。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。文中“He suggests working while standing at high table some of the time instead of sitting at a desk. Dr. Levine also suggests standing while using the telephone or eating. Or he advises walking with the people you work with for an on-foot meeting.” 他建议,有时站在高桌旁工作,而不是坐在桌子前。Dr. Levine还建议在使用电话或吃饭时站立。或者他建议和你一起工作的人一起徒步开会。因此可知,他建议更多的站立或行走,故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。本文主要讲述的是久坐影响健康,因此中心思想同健康有关,由此可推断此篇文章可能来自健康杂志,故选B。
D
Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.
Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.
At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages. Often spoken by many people while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 Languages: the Americas about 1,000, Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.
Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150). Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.
12. What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times
A. They developed very fast. B. They were large in number.
C. They had similar patters. D. They were closely connected
13. Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2?
A. Complex. B. Advanced.
C. Powerful. D. Modern.
14. How many languages are spoken by less than 6, 000 people at present
A. About 6,800 . B. About 3,400
C. About 2400 D. About 1,200.
15. What is the main idea of the text
A. New languages will be created.
B. Peoples lifestyles are reflected in languages.
C. Human development results in fewer languages.
D. Geography determines language evolution.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了随着社会的发展人类语言越来越少及其原因。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit (联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other... when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.可知,当世界以依靠狩猎为生的人组成的时候,小而联系紧密的群落形成了他们彼此之间独立的讲话模式……当世界上的人口数量不到一千万时,语言种类达到了12,000种。由此推知,当时的语言种类很多。故选B。
【13题详解】
猜测词义题。根据文章第二段中的dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.可知,英语、西班牙语和汉语正在快速替代其他语言。由此推知dominant languages意为“强有力的语言”。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的At present, the world has about 6,800 languages.和The median number (中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world’s languages are spoken by fewer people than that. 可知,目前世界上大约有6800种语言,但是讲的人数少于6000人的占一半即3400。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨要义题。根据文章第一段中的主题句Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going.可知,语言的产生和消失进行了几千年,但最近语言产生的少,消失的太多。故选C。
点睛:长难句解读
In recent centuries, trade, industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.
分析:dominant前的and连接两个并列句,all和前面的名词短语trade, industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications是同位语。
句意:在最近的几个世纪,贸易、工业化、民族国家的发展和全球义务教育的普及,尤其是过去几十年来,全球化和更好的交流,这些都导致许多语言消失。而且像英语、西班牙语和汉语等主流语言正日益占据主导地位。

【答案】16. C 17. E 18. G 19. B 20. F
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了什么是积极的倾听,如何做一个积极的倾听者。
【16题详解】
根据后文“the speaker and the listener sit facing each other.(演讲者和听众面对面地坐着。)”和“The two people take turns talking.(两个人轮流谈话。)”可知,空格处是对积极倾听的参与者的描述;且“done by two people on their own(由两个人自己完成)”与上句“be guided by a third person(由第三人引导)”构成选择关系,故C项“或者,它可以由两个人独自完成。”与上下文相呼应。故选C项。
【17题详解】
本空前一句“You should avoid thinking about what to say next or whether what the speaker is saying is right.(你应该避免考虑接下来要说什么,或者说话者所说的是否正确。)”介绍了在积极倾听时,要避免做的事,E项“相反,要专注于理解对方所说的话。”介绍了在积极倾听时要专注于理解对方所说的话,前后为转折关系,且符合语境。故选E项。
【18题详解】
根据后句“这会给对方一个澄清误会的机会。”可知,此处的做法能让讲话者知道自己是否清楚的表达了想说的话,且后句中的“It”可以指代G项“这样做可以让说话者知道你很好地理解了他所说的内容。”。且G项“that”可以指代前句“repeat back the main points of what he or she just said.(重复他或她刚说的要点。)”,G项与前后文相呼应。故选G项。
【19题详解】
根据本空后句“From there,the two people switch back and forth until they have both fully heard and understood each other.(从那时起,两个人反复交流,直到他们完全听到并理解了对方。)”可知,B 项“然后,说话者与聆听者角色互换”符合语境,且语意上为承接关系。The speaker and the listener 呼应 two people 。故选B项。
【20题详解】
根据前文可知“家庭成员和同事经常有不好的倾听习惯。他们对对方的反应是基于他们期望对方说什么,而不是实际说了什么。”所以选项要说这是不好的倾听习惯,要打破这种模式。F项“积极倾听让他们打破这种模式。”符合语境,且F项中的“this pattern”指代本空前一句“They react to each other based on what they expect the other person to say rather than on what is actually said.(他们对对方的反应是基于他们期望对方说什么,而不是实际说了什么。)”。故选F项。
【点睛】七选五题型要求考生从整体上把握文章的逻辑结构和内容上的联系,理解句子之间、段落之间的关系,对诸如连贯性、一致性等语段特征有较强的意识和熟练的把握。所以懂得整篇文章的基本结构或段落的语篇结构对解题很有用。例如第5题,根据前文可知“家庭成员和同事经常有不好的倾听习惯。他们对对方的反应是基于他们期望对方说什么,而不是实际说了什么。”所以选项要说这是不好的倾听习惯,要打破这种模式,F项“积极倾听让他们打破这种模式。”符合语境,且F项中的“this pattern”指代本空前一句“They react to each other based on what they expect the other person to say rather than on what is actually said.(他们对对方的反应是基于他们期望对方说什么,而不是实际说了什么)”。故选F项。

第二节 读后续写
47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
Steven had had his first starring role in kindergarten, playing a talking stone in a class play. From the moment that he heard the applause and took his bows, he knew he wanted to be an actor. He “drew” his name as it would look at a theatre. In his mind, he “practiced” his acceptance speech to the Academy Awards(奥斯卡金像奖). “I want to thank my agent(经纪人)...” he imagined himself saying to the crowd. He wanted to be an actor.
By six grade, he was used to starring in school productions. He played Romeo in this year’s Junior Shakespeare Festival. His brother said he was probably the first Romeo in the history of theatre to have braces(牙套). Steven liked everything about acting-except for his brother’s comments about it. Brad was not interested in acting.
Steven dreamed of going to California or New York when he got older. Meanwhile, he read the “trades” at the library-the newspapers and magazines of the acting business. He couldn’t believe it when he saw that there was going to be an open casting call(演员招雾)in his own Midwestern city. He begged his parents to take him, but they worked on Saturdays and they couldn’t take the day off. He was forced to ask his older brother, the critic.
The part called for a boy who looked about 14. Steven figured he could pass. Unlike Brad, Steven looked older than his age. Brad, on the other hand, at 16 looked more like 14. The boys arrived early at the theatre where the try-outs(试镜)were taking place. There were already over 200 kids there. Steven picked up his application. Brad picked one, too- “just for fun,” he said. Each of them then studied the short script they’d been handed. Like all the other kids, they mouthed the words over and over. Some kids found quiet spaces to read their lines aloud, with all the right emotion.
Steven asked Brad to listen to his reading. “Okay, but you have to listen to mine, too.”
“Deal,” Steven answered. Then he read, and, as usual, he was good. Next, it was Brad’s turn. Steven couldn’t believe what he was seeing and hearing. Why hadn’t Brad ever tried out for a play Where had he gotten all this talent all of a sudden He asked his brother, “Why haven’t you tried before ”
“I was waiting for something big,” Brad replied.
注意:
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。
Soon they heard their names called. It was their turn to perform.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A decade later, at that year’s Academy Awards Ceremony, the two brothers appeared.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
Soon they heard their names called. It was their turn to perform. Smiling with confidence, Brad performed in such a wonderful way that all the judges couldn’t help applauding for him. Having seen how well his brother had done, Steven suddenly realized he would be beaten in his proudest area by Brad. Stressed and nervous, he read the lines in a trembling voice. Later, Brad said to Steven, “Remember, you should never limit yourself to applause and cheers.” The next day, word came that Brad had undoubtedly got the part. Despite depression, Steven still felt proud for his brother. Meanwhile, he said to himself, “Brad, I will catch up with you.”
Paragraph 2:
A decade later, at that year’s Academy Awards Ceremony, the two brothers appeared together. They both became famous actors. When it came to Steven’s speech, he said to the crowd, “I once failed to get the part for a casting call. However, thanks to my brother’s words and great effort, my dream has come true.” Winning awards wasn’t the final destination, the growth and improvement were the best treasures he had received from these years’ hard work. After all, no matter what happened, never for a moment would he stop his love for acting.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了从小喜欢表演的Steven一直梦想成为演员,并且也为之努力,而他的哥哥Brad似乎对表演没有兴趣。一年某个剧组来他们所在的地方招募小演员,Steven让哥哥Brad陪他去试镜。在练习台词的时候Steven发现哥哥念得很好,便询问他以前为什么不尝试,哥哥告诉他自己一直在等一个更大的机会。
【详解】1.段落续写
①根据段首句子“很快他们听到自己的名字被叫。轮到他们表演了。”可知,接下来可描写他们表演的经过和结果(Brad被选中)。
②根据段首句子“十年后,在当年的奥斯卡颁奖典礼上,兄弟俩一起出现了。”可知,接下来可描写Steven的感触。
2.续写线索:试镜开始——Brad出色完成——Steven紧张、失败——Brad被选中——Steven下定决心——兄弟两同时现身颁奖会——Steve感悟。
3. 词汇激活
行为类
①限制:limit/restrict
②获得:get/gain/acquire
③发生:take place/happen/occur
情绪类
①感到骄傲:feel proud/take pride in
②颤抖的:shivering/trembling

[高分句型2]After all, no matter what happened, never for a moment would he stop his love for acting.(句中运用no matter what引导让步状语从句)

In most parts of the world, many students help their schools make less pollution. They join “environment clubs”. In an environment club, people work together to make our environment clean.
● No-garbage lunches. How much do you throw away after lunch Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used again. Every week they will choose the classes that make the least garbage and report them to the whole school!
● No-car day. On the no-car day, nobody comes to school by car--not the students and not the teachers! Cars give pollution to the air, so remember:
Walk, jump, bike or run.
Use your legs! It’s lots of fun!
● Turn off the water! Did you know that some toilets can waste twenty to forty m3 of water an hour In a year that would fill a small river! In environment clubs, students mend those broken toilets.
We love our environment. Let’s work together to make it clean.

Ryan Hreljac is a boy living in Canada. Without his help, hundreds of wells that now provide fresh water for people in Africa, Central America and India might never have been built. Ryan is what you might call a water ambassador(大使). He traveled the world to tell people how they can help solve a big problem: the lack of safe drinking water in many developing countries.
Ryan’s efforts didn’t begin in a far-off place, but right at home in Kemptville, Ontario.
When he was 6 years old, Ryan learned from his teacher that children in Africa often must walk miles each day to find water. Some even die from drinking bad water, his teacher said.
So Ryan decided to act. He did chores for his parents and neighbors. He spoke to schools, churches, and clubs about his goal. The word spread. After several months of hard work, Ryan had raised $ 2, 000, enough to dig one well.
An organization called Canadian Physicians for Aid and Relief (CPAR) chose a site for the well in the village of Agweo, in Uganda. Two years later, CPAR arranged for Ryan to visit Uganda for the opening ceremony of the well. Ryan met a new friend named Jimmy. Then they formed a close friendship. He often traveled with Ryan to explain how water changed his life.
After the first well, “the ripple(涟漪) effect took over,” Ryan says, “and one goal led to another. ” With adult help, he founded Ryan’s Well Foundation to educate people about the importance of water. Now the foundation has raised more than $ 1. 5 million and built 255 wells that serve more than 427, 000 people in 12 countries. Ryan has received many awards but he isn’t bragging(炫耀). “The most impressive people I’ve met are the other kids who want to help too,” he says. “I’m just a typical kid. I had a small dream, and I stayed with it. Everybody can do something.”
4. What problem is Ryan working to solve
A. The effect of poverty on children.
B. The diseases caused by polluted water.
C. A lack of safe drinking water.
D. A lack of money to save water.
5. How did Ryan earn money for his first well
A. He created an educational foundation.
B. He traveled to villages across the world.
C. He started a website to ask for donations.
D. He did chores and sold his idea.
6. To make a dream come true, what would be the most important for Ryan
A. Making friends.
B. Not giving up.
C. Knowing his limits.
D. Not bragging about awards.
7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. A Story of a Well
B. A Boy Who Makes a Difference
C. An Organization of Saving Water
D. A Well That Brought People Together
C
Doctors say you had better use it before you lose it. The more you sit each day, the more chance you have of getting sick.
Richard Rosenkranz of Kansas State University was among the researchers. He said people who sat for long periods were at great risk of diseases when compared with those who sat less. He said that was especially true for some chronic (慢性的) diseases.
Richard Rosenkranz studied the relationship between sitting and chronic diseases in middle-aged Australian men. He worked with researchers from the University of Western Sydney. They examined the health records of more than 63,000 men from New South Wales. The men were between the ages of 45 and 65. The men reported about what diseases they had, or did not have. And they kept record of the amount of time each day that they sat.
The study also showed that exercising every morning for 30minutes did not reduce the health risk if you spend the next eight hours sitting at the desk Mr. Rosenkranz said it was important to make sure you exercise. But he said it was also important to find ways not to sit so much during the day.
Many jobs today require sitting and working at the desk all day. James Levine works at the Mayo Clinic in the United Sates. He suggests working while standing at high table some of the time instead of sitting at a desk. Dr. Levine also suggests standing while using the telephone or eating. Or he advises walking with the people you work with for an on-foot meeting. And he notes that if you spend more time on your feet, you may have muscle activity that helps burn fats and sugars in your body.
8. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph implies that ________.
A. doctors should treat all the patients well
B. doctors should make use of every method
C. one should value his health before he loses it
D. one should depend on himself to keep healthy
9. How did Richard Rosenkranz make the study
A. By examining some records and reports.
B. By making some laboratory experiments.
C. By talking with the doctors and patients.
D. By watching the men’s daily performance.
10. According to Dr. Levine, in order to avoid the harm of long-time sitting, one should ________.
A. exercise more often
B. change his job
C. stay away from the desk
D. stand or walk more
11. Where does this text probably come from
A. A fashion magazine B. A health magazine
C. A biology textbook D. A life guide
D
Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.
Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.
At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages. Often spoken by many people while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 Languages: the Americas about 1,000, Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.
Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150).

第二节 读后续写
47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
Steven had had his first starring role in kindergarten, playing a talking stone in a class play. From the moment that he heard the applause and took his bows, he knew he wanted to be an actor. He “drew” his name as it would look at a theatre. In his mind, he “practiced” his acceptance speech to the Academy Awards(奥斯卡金像奖). “I want to thank my agent(经纪人)...” he imagined himself saying to the crowd. He wanted to be an actor.
By six grade, he was used to starring in school productions. He played Romeo in this year’s Junior Shakespeare Festival. His brother said he was probably the first Romeo in the history of theatre to have braces(牙套). Steven liked everything about acting-except for his brother’s comments about it. Brad was not interested in acting.
Steven dreamed of going to California or New York when he got older. Meanwhile, he read the “trades” at the library-the newspapers and magazines of the acting business. He couldn’t believe it when he saw that there was going to be an open casting call(演员招雾)in his own Midwestern city. He begged his parents to take him, but they worked on Saturdays and they couldn’t take the day off. He was forced to ask his older brother, the critic.
The part called for a boy who looked about 14. Steven figured he could pass. Unlike Brad, Steven looked older than his age. Brad, on the other hand, at 16 looked more like 14. The boys arrived early at the theatre where the try-outs(试镜)were taking place. There were already over 200 kids there. Steven picked up his application. Brad picked one, too- “just for fun,” he said. Each of them then studied the short script they’d been handed. Like all the other kids, they mouthed the words over and over. Some kids found quiet spaces to read their lines aloud, with all the right emotion.
Steven asked Brad to listen to his reading. “Okay, but you have to listen to mine, too.”
“Deal,” Steven answered. Then he read, and, as usual, he was good. Next, it was Brad’s turn. Steven couldn’t believe what he was seeing and hearing. Why hadn’t Brad ever tried out for a play Where had he gotten all this talent all of a sudden He asked his brother, “Why haven’t you tried before ”
“I was waiting for something big,” Brad replied.
注意:
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;

Soon they heard their names called. It was their turn to perform.
