第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
If you really want to go green,here’s good news:eating green is good for you.The very foods with a high carbon(碳) cost — meat,pork,dairy products,processed snacks — also tend to be filled with fat and calories.A green diet would be mostly vegetables and fruit,whole grains(全谷物),fish and lean meats(瘦肉) like chicken—a diet that is good for environment and your figure.Eating green can be healthier and beneficial to the climate.
It may be hard to believe that a meal in a fast-food restaurant produces more carbon than your trip to a faraway place.More than 37% of the world’s land is used for agriculture,much of which was once forested.Deforestation(砍伐森林) is a major source of carbon.The fertiliser(化肥) and machinery needed on a modern farm also have a large carbon footprint,as does the network of ships and trucks that brings the food from the farm to your plate.
The most efficient way to reduce the carbon footprint of your menu is to eat less meat,especially beef.Raising cattle takes a lot more energy than growing the equivalent(相等的) amount of grains,fruit or vegetables.What’s more,the majority of cattle in the US are fed on grain and loads of it—670 million tons in 2002—and the fertiliser used to feed that creates separate environmental problems.
Focus on eating lower on the food chain,with more plants and fruits and less meat and dairy.It’s simple.We can change today what goes into our bodies for the health of our planet and ourselves.
21.According to the passage,eating green will .
A.protect the animals from being killed
B.promote the development of agriculture
C.help us lose weight and keep self-confidence
D.be good for our health and make a change for the climate
22.What will not lead to carbon in the agriculture
A.Grains. B.Fertiliser.
C.Machinery. D.Deforestation.
23.In the author’s opinion,the most efficient way to reduce carbon in our diet is to .
A.use less fertiliser
B.plant more grains
C.stop raising the cattle
D.eat more vegetables than meat
24.What is the passage mainly about
A.The change of our menu.
B.How to reduce the carbon.
C.The benefits of eating green.
D.The ways of keeping healthy.
B
A study of 27,000 men showed those skipping(不吃) breakfast were at a greater risk of heart problems.The British Heart Foundation said breakfast helped people resist(抵制) sugary snacks before lunch.
The men,aged 45-82,were studied for 16 years.During that time there were more than 1,500 heart attacks or cases of deadly heart failure.However,people who skipped breakfast were 27% more likely to have heart problems than those who started the day with a meal.The researchers took into consideration other lifestyle risk factors(因素) such as smoking and exercise.
Researcher Dr Leah Cahill said,“The take-home message is to eat in the morning when you wake up,preferably within an hour.The results show that something is better than nothing,but it’s always better to have something healthy and balanced.”
She said the timing of the meal seemed to be key and waiting until lunch rather than “having breakfast” may be straining(损伤) the body over time.This could be increasing the risk of high blood pressure and fatness which could in turn damage the heart.“Don’t skip breakfast,” Dr Cahill suggested.
Victoria Taylor,an expert with the British Heart Foundation,said,“These researchers only looked at men aged over 45,so we would need to see further research to prove that breakfast has the same effect on the heart health of other groups of people.What we do know is that a healthy breakfast can make that mid-morning biscuits less tempting,as well as giving you another opportunity to widen the variety of foods in your diet.Cereals(谷类食品) with low fat milk are a good way to start the day.Try a banana or dried fruit on top and you’ll be on your way to a fine day before you’ve even left the house.”
25.What does the text mainly deal with
A.The effects of snacks on the health of the heart.
B.An interview on people’s lifestyles.
C.What a healthy and balanced diet should contain.
D.The relationship between breakfast and a healthy heart.
26.Dr Leah Cahill’s suggestion is that we should .
A.fix the time for each meal we eat in a day
B.make sure our breakfast is always balanced
C.have breakfast within an hour after waking up
D.eat our breakfast immediately after getting up
27.The underlined word “tempting” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “ ”.
A.attractive B.valuable
C.obvious D.familiar
28.According to Victoria Taylor, .
A.men over 45 are more likely to get heart diseases
B.it’s healthy to eat some biscuits between breakfast and lunch
C.fresh fruits like bananas are necessary for a healthy breakfast
D.the researchers should have covered other age groups in their study
C
French fries are served hot,either soft or crispy,and are generally eaten as part of lunch or dinner or by themselves as a snack.They commonly appear on the menus of diners,fast food restaurants,pubs,and bars.They are usually salted and may be served with ketchup(番茄酱),vinegar,or other local specialties,depending on the country.French fries are a very common fast food dish in Europe.
But this year,a poor potato harvest in Europe this summer could mean French fries are up to three centimetres shorter than usual.The poor harvest is because of the very hot summer Europe had.There were record hot temperatures in many countries.The heatwave caused a lack of rain,which meant farmers produced a lot fewer potatoes than they normally do.Pierre Lebrun,a spokesman from a potato growers’ association in Belgium,said farmers grew 25 percent fewer potatoes than normal.The effect of this is that potato prices are up and the average size of potatoes is smaller.
Belgium is one country where the French fries are very popular.There are over 5,000 eateries which serve and specialise in fries in Belgium.Belgians go there and enjoy themselves at mealtime.They love fries so much that there is a campaign to rename them “Belgian fries” instead of “French fries” because Belgians say the fry was invented in their country.Belgium is one of the largest exporters of frozen fries in the world.It exports around 2.3 million tons of them every year.Mr Lebron explained why fries would be shorter.He said,“Generally,to have long fries,we work with potatoes with a diameter of more than 50mm.Then you get fries of 8 to 9 cm.This time,as the potatoes are smaller,the fries will be shorter.”
29.From the first paragraph we can learn French fries .
A.can be served only at dinner
B.can be served in different ways
C.can’t be ordered in a popular bar
D.can’t be served as snacks in Europe
30.Why are the French fries shorter than usual
A.The businessmen want to make more money.
B.The cold weather reduced the production of the potatoes.
C.People don’t like French fries any more for healthier life.
D.The high temperatures in this summer made the potatoes smaller.
31.The underlined word “eateries” in paragraph 3 refers to “ ”.
A.parks
B.restaurants
C.supermarkets
D.shopping malls
D
Your house may have an effect on your figure.Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off.You can make your environment work for you instead of against you.Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights.Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating,for people are often less self-conscious(难为情的) when they’re in poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food.If your home doesn’t have enough window light,get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colours.Research suggests warm colours fuel our appetites.In one study,people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room.Warm colours like yellow make food appear more appetising,while cold colours make us feel less hungry.So when it’s time to repaint,go blue.
Don’t forget the clock—or the radio.People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals.Begin keeping track of the time,and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes.And while you’re at it,actually sit down to eat.If you need some help to slow down,turn on relaxing music.It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes.Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat.We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate.When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one,total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent.And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short,wide glass than a tall,skinny glass.
32.The text is especially helpful for those who care about .
A.their home comforts
B.their body shape
C.house buying
D.healthy diets
33.A home environment in blue can help people .
A.digest food better
B.reduce food intake
C.burn more calories
D.regain their appetites
34.What are people advised to do at mealtimes
A.Eat quickly.
B.Play fast music.
C.Use smaller spoons.
D.Turn down the lights.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.Is Your House Making You Fat
B.Ways of Serving Dinner
C.Effects of Self-consciousness
D.Is Your Home Environment Relaxing

Drinking water is so important for good health.When in school,you learned what water is made up of. 36 However,what you may not have learned is how much water you need in order to be healthy.
As we all know,60% to 70% of the body is water.Your body needs water to control body temperature and to carry nutrients to all parts of the body. 37 When you are very active,for example,playing football,you’ll lose more water.If you don’t drink water at once,it will do harm to your health.
38 Take your weight in pounds and divide that number in half.That gives you the number of ounces of water that you need to drink per day.For example,if you weigh 160 pounds,you should drink at least 80 ounces of water per day.
Twenty percent of your water need will come from the foods you eat. 39 Water is the best choice.Sodas have a lot of sugar in them,so if you drink sodas,you may take in more calories than you need. 40
A.Why do you need to drink water
B.The rest should come from what you drink.
C.You also learned how important it is to our body.
D.How much water do you need to drink every day
E.Juices are good because they have lots of nutrients.
F.Now let’s take a look at where your water need comes from.
G.Water can also play an important part in protecting your body.

The comeback
Laurie sat quietly in the empty dressing room at the ice-skating rink(溜冰场).She had not been skating in any competition since her left knee was badly injured in an accident six months ago.As she waited for her turn to skate,Laurie was very nervous.She knew that today was a very important day in her comeback.
“If I can win today,” she thought,“I can skate in the World Cup next year and then maybe I can make it to the Olympics.”
Laurie was just told that she had a tough competition this year,a girl from Connecticut named Jinny Jordan who was really strong in everything.“She is the one you have to beat this year,” the coach said.
Minutes later,the door opened and Laurie saw a young woman who was about her age.The young woman put some of her belongings onto a chair.However,the bag fell to the floor.
Laurie felt uncomfortable as she looked at Jinny.“So this is my competition,” thought Laurie.“Because of her,I may lose tonight.”
“This costume was my mum’s idea,” Jinny started the conversation,looking down at her red,white,and blue skating dress.“I look like a flag.”
Laurie couldn’t keep from smiling.She pointed to Jinny’s skating bag.“Some stuff fell out of your bag,” Laurie said.
Jinny looked at the clothing and equipment that lay scattered on the floor.As she began to gather her belongings,the door opened.
“Jinny,” called someone,“you’d better give the tape of your music to the sound engineer right away.”
“I thought I gave him my music tape half an hour ago,” said Jinny.“Tell him it’s the green box with my initials(姓名首字母) written in white in the right-hand corner.”
“He claims you never gave it to him,and he is getting angry.”
“Then I don’t know what I did with it,” said Jinny,hurrying out.
Laurie knew that music was nearly as important to the program as skating itself.If she lost her music tape,she might as well forget about skating.Laurie stood up and walked to the chair to do a few more knee bends.
Paragraph 1:
Suddenly she saw something small and dark green behind the leg of the dressing table.
Paragraph 2:
Feeling relieved,Laurie skated quickly to the centre of the rink after the announcer finally called her name.

M:My name’s Bob,and I’ve come to tell you about the York Dance Band.Now,if you want to have a good family party,like a wedding or an important birthday,and you want all your guests to dance after dinner,then don’t book a noisy disco.Have a live band instead.We play all kinds of dance music,including songs that every age group,from teenagers to grandmothers,can dance to.The band is made up of all sorts of different people—none of us are full-time musicians.We have a doctor,two English teachers,a retired journalist and the band leader who owns a hotel.The band has been together for ten years,but I only joined this year.Now the number has increased from eight to twelve.I was looking for a band to join,and a friend of mine saw an advertisement in the local paper and persuaded me to apply.Before I joined,the band didn’t have a separate singer,but they realised they needed one.They chose me because I’ve always enjoyed getting up and singing in front of an audience,and people say I’ve got a good voice.I’d been in bands before.I even played the guitar rather badly in one,but this band is easily the best.I even enjoy the practices.Now,I’ll just play.

21.D 由第一段最后一句“Eating green can be healthier and beneficial to the climate.”可知,吃绿色食品对我们的健康和环境都有利。
22.A 由第二、三段的介绍可知,只有谷物不会造成碳排放。
23.D 由第三段第一句中的“The most efficient way to reduce the carbon footprint of your menu is to eat less meat,especially beef.”可知选D项。
24.C 通读全文可知文章主要介绍了吃绿色食品的好处。故选C项。
25.D 通读全文特别是第二段可知,本文主要探讨早餐对于心脏健康的重要性。故选D项。
26.C 根据第三段中的“The take-home message is to eat in the morning when you wake up,preferably within an hour.”可知,Dr Leah Cahill认为最好在醒来一小时之内吃早餐。故选C项。
27.A 由文章第一段中的breakfast helped people resist sugary snacks以及本段tempting之前的less一词可知,吃早餐可以减少临近中午时饼干对自己的诱惑。故推断此处tempting意为“有诱惑力的;有吸引力的”。attractive“有吸引力的”;valuable“有价值的”;obvious“明显的”;familiar“熟悉的”。故选A项。
28.D 根据最后一段中的“These researchers only looked at men aged over 45,so we would need to see further research to prove that breakfast has the same effect on the heart health of other groups of people.”可知,Victoria Taylor认为,为了进一步确切证实早餐对人们心脏健康的重要性,研究者在该项研究中应该对其他年龄群体展开调查。故选D项。
29.B 通读第一段可知,薯条是热的,或者是软的,或者是脆的,通常是在午餐或晚餐的时候吃的,或者是当点心吃。它们通常是盐腌的,根据国家的不同,可以与番茄酱、醋或其他当地特产一起食用。所以判断出薯条有不同的供应方式。故选B项。
30.D 由第二段中的“But this year,a poor potato harvest in Europe this summer could mean French fries are up to three centimetres shorter than usual.The poor harvest is because of the very hot summer Europe had.”可知,今年夏天欧洲马铃薯收成不佳,意味着炸薯条比往常短了三厘米。收成不好是因为欧洲的夏天很热。故选D项。
31.B 由画线词后的定语从句“which serve and specialise in fries in Belgium”可知,它是提供和专门经营薯条的场所。由此推断下划线一词指的是restaurants,故选B项。
32.B 根据文章首句“Your house may have an effect on your figure.”以及下面几个段落中提到的建议可知,本文是关于如何不变胖的,所以那些“关心自己体形的人”会觉得本文特别有帮助。故选B项。
33.B 根据文章第三段中的“...people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room.”可知,人们在蓝色的房间里吃饭,要比在黄色或者红色的房间里少吃33%的食物。故B项“减少食物摄入量”正确。
34.C 根据最后一段中的“When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one,total intake jumps by 14 percent.”可知,应使用较小的汤匙,故选C项。
35.A 本文主要介绍了墙壁的颜色、房间的亮度、吃饭的速度以及吃饭时使用的器皿大小等都与一个人的身材有关。因此A项“你的房子正让你发胖吗 ”最适合做文章标题。

第一节
Dear Jenny,
How nice to hear from you!In your letter you asked me how to keep healthy.I would like to give you some advice.
As we know,food is of great importance to us teenagers.Since we grow very fast,we are in need of nutritious food,such as fresh vegetables,fruit,fish,meat and so on.However,I think you’d better not eat food with much sugar and fat.And you should get plenty of sleep.It is necessary for you to have at least eight hours of sleep every day.In addition,you should take physical exercise regularly.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua

Paragraph 1:
Suddenly she saw something small and dark green behind the leg of the dressing table.She pulled it out,and saw the white initials in the top right-hand corner.“It’s Jinny’s music tape!” She exclaimed.Laurie’s heart started beating fast.“All I’d have to do is forget that I found this,” she thought.“If Jinny doesn’t have her music,she might as well not skate.And then I would win.” Laurie shivered slightly as she thought about this.Then she wondered,“Does winning mean so much to me that I’d be willing to cheat for it ” She walked to the door and called Jinny loudly.
Paragraph 2:
Feeling relieved,Laurie skated quickly to the centre of the rink after the announcer finally called her name.The music filled the stadium and she skated gracefully and beautifully.Her left knee was fine and she felt herself gliding on the ice.The audience applauded from time to time,enthusiastically supporting her in her comeback.When she finished,her coach ran up to her and hugged her.“You did it,Laurie!” she said.Laurie smiled and thought about Jinny’s music tape.“No one will ever know how close I really came to losing,” she said softly to herself.

A
If you really want to go green,here’s good news:eating green is good for you.The very foods with a high carbon(碳) cost — meat,pork,dairy products,processed snacks — also tend to be filled with fat and calories.A green diet would be mostly vegetables and fruit,whole grains(全谷物),fish and lean meats(瘦肉) like chicken—a diet that is good for environment and your figure.Eating green can be healthier and beneficial to the climate.
It may be hard to believe that a meal in a fast-food restaurant produces more carbon than your trip to a faraway place.More than 37% of the world’s land is used for agriculture,much of which was once forested.Deforestation(砍伐森林) is a major source of carbon.The fertiliser(化肥) and machinery needed on a modern farm also have a large carbon footprint,as does the network of ships and trucks that brings the food from the farm to your plate.
The most efficient way to reduce the carbon footprint of your menu is to eat less meat,especially beef.Raising cattle takes a lot more energy than growing the equivalent(相等的) amount of grains,fruit or vegetables.What’s more,the majority of cattle in the US are fed on grain and loads of it—670 million tons in 2002—and the fertiliser used to feed that creates separate environmental problems.
Focus on eating lower on the food chain,with more plants and fruits and less meat and dairy.It’s simple.We can change today what goes into our bodies for the health of our planet and ourselves.
21.According to the passage,eating green will .
A.protect the animals from being killed
B.promote the development of agriculture
C.help us lose weight and keep self-confidence
D.be good for our health and make a change for the climate
22.What will not lead to carbon in the agriculture
A.Grains. B.Fertiliser.
C.Machinery. D.Deforestation.
23.In the author’s opinion,the most efficient way to reduce carbon in our diet is to .
A.use less fertiliser
B.plant more grains
C.stop raising the cattle
D.eat more vegetables than meat
24.What is the passage mainly about
A.The change of our menu.
B.How to reduce the carbon.
C.The benefits of eating green.
D.The ways of keeping healthy.

A study of 27,000 men showed those skipping(不吃) breakfast were at a greater risk of heart problems.The British Heart Foundation said breakfast helped people resist(抵制) sugary snacks before lunch.
The men,aged 45-82,were studied for 16 years.During that time there were more than 1,500 heart attacks or cases of deadly heart failure.However,people who skipped breakfast were 27% more likely to have heart problems than those who started the day with a meal.The researchers took into consideration other lifestyle risk factors(因素) such as smoking and exercise.
Researcher Dr Leah Cahill said,“The take-home message is to eat in the morning when you wake up,preferably within an hour.The results show that something is better than nothing,but it’s always better to have something healthy and balanced.”
She said the timing of the meal seemed to be key and waiting until lunch rather than “having breakfast” may be straining(损伤) the body over time.This could be increasing the risk of high blood pressure and fatness which could in turn damage the heart.“Don’t skip breakfast,” Dr Cahill suggested.
Victoria Taylor,an expert with the British Heart Foundation,said,“These researchers only looked at men aged over 45,so we would need to see further research to prove that breakfast has the same effect on the heart health of other groups of people.What we do know is that a healthy breakfast can make that mid-morning biscuits less tempting,as well as giving you another opportunity to widen the variety of foods in your diet.Cereals(谷类食品) with low fat milk are a good way to start the day.Try a banana or dried fruit on top and you’ll be on your way to a fine day before you’ve even left the house.”
25.What does the text mainly deal with
A.The effects of snacks on the health of the heart.
B.An interview on people’s lifestyles.
C.What a healthy and balanced diet should contain.
D.The relationship between breakfast and a healthy heart.
26.Dr Leah Cahill’s suggestion is that we should .
A.fix the time for each meal we eat in a day
B.make sure our breakfast is always balanced
C.have breakfast within an hour after waking up
D.eat our breakfast immediately after getting up
27.The underlined word “tempting” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “ ”.
A.attractive B.valuable
C.obvious D.familiar
28.According to Victoria Taylor, .
A.men over 45 are more likely to get heart diseases
B.it’s healthy to eat some biscuits between breakfast and lunch
C.fresh fruits like bananas are necessary for a healthy breakfast
D.the researchers should have covered other age groups in their study

French fries are served hot,either soft or crispy,and are generally eaten as part of lunch or dinner or by themselves as a snack.They commonly appear on the menus of diners,fast food restaurants,pubs,and bars.They are usually salted and may be served with ketchup(番茄酱),vinegar,or other local specialties,depending on the country.French fries are a very common fast food dish in Europe.
But this year,a poor potato harvest in Europe this summer could mean French fries are up to three centimetres shorter than usual.The poor harvest is because of the very hot summer Europe had.There were record hot temperatures in many countries.The heatwave caused a lack of rain,which meant farmers produced a lot fewer potatoes than they normally do.Pierre Lebrun,a spokesman from a potato growers’ association in Belgium,said farmers grew 25 percent fewer potatoes than normal.The effect of this is that potato prices are up and the average size of potatoes is smaller.
Belgium is one country where the French fries are very popular.There are over 5,000 eateries which serve and specialise in fries in Belgium.Belgians go there and enjoy themselves at mealtime.They love fries so much that there is a campaign to rename them “Belgian fries” instead of “French fries” because Belgians say the fry was invented in their country.Belgium is one of the largest exporters of frozen fries in the world.It exports around 2.3 million tons of them every year.Mr Lebron explained why fries would be shorter.He said,“Generally,to have long fries,we work with potatoes with a diameter of more than 50mm.Then you get fries of 8 to 9 cm.This time,as the potatoes are smaller,the fries will be shorter.”
29.From the first paragraph we can learn French fries .
A.can be served only at dinner
B.can be served in different ways
C.can’t be ordered in a popular bar
D.can’t be served as snacks in Europe
30.Why are the French fries shorter than usual
A.The businessmen want to make more money.
B.The cold weather reduced the production of the potatoes.
C.People don’t like French fries any more for healthier life.
D.The high temperatures in this summer made the potatoes smaller.
31.The underlined word “eateries” in paragraph 3 refers to “ ”.
A.parks
B.restaurants
C.supermarkets
D.shopping malls

Your house may have an effect on your figure.Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off.You can make your environment work for you instead of against you.Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights.Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating,for people are often less self-conscious(难为情的) when they’re in poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food.If your home doesn’t have enough window light,get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colours.Research suggests warm colours fuel our appetites.In one study,people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room.Warm colours like yellow make food appear more appetising,while cold colours make us feel less hungry.So when it’s time to repaint,go blue.
Don’t forget the clock—or the radio.People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals.Begin keeping track of the time,and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes.And while you’re at it,actually sit down to eat.If you need some help to slow down,turn on relaxing music.It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes.Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat.We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate.When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one,total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent.And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short,wide glass than a tall,skinny glass.
32.The text is especially helpful for those who care about .
A.their home comforts
B.their body shape
C.house buying
D.healthy diets
33.A home environment in blue can help people .
A.digest food better
B.reduce food intake
C.burn more calories
D.regain their appetites
34.What are people advised to do at mealtimes
A.Eat quickly.
B.Play fast music.
C.Use smaller spoons.
D.Turn down the lights.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.Is Your House Making You Fat
B.Ways of Serving Dinner
C.Effects of Self-consciousness
D.Is Your Home Environment Relaxing

Drinking water is so important for good health.When in school,you learned what water is made up of. 36 However,what you may not have learned is how much water you need in order to be healthy.
As we all know,60% to 70% of the body is water.Your body needs water to control body temperature and to carry nutrients to all parts of the body. 37 When you are very active,for example,playing football,you’ll lose more water.If you don’t drink water at once,it will do harm to your health.
38 Take your weight in pounds and divide that number in half.That gives you the number of ounces of water that you need to drink per day.For example,if you weigh 160 pounds,you should drink at least 80 ounces of water per day.
Twenty percent of your water need will come from the foods you eat. 39 Water is the best choice.Sodas have a lot of sugar in them,so if you drink sodas,you may take in more calories than you need. 40
A.Why do you need to drink water
B.The rest should come from what you drink.
C.You also learned how important it is to our body.
D.How much water do you need to drink every day
E.Juices are good because they have lots of nutrients.
F.Now let’s take a look at where your water need comes from.
G.Water can also play an important part in protecting your body.

The comeback
Laurie sat quietly in the empty dressing room at the ice-skating rink(溜冰场).She had not been skating in any competition since her left knee was badly injured in an accident six months ago.As she waited for her turn to skate,Laurie was very nervous.She knew that today was a very important day in her comeback.
“If I can win today,” she thought,“I can skate in the World Cup next year and then maybe I can make it to the Olympics.”
Laurie was just told that she had a tough competition this year,a girl from Connecticut named Jinny Jordan who was really strong in everything.“She is the one you have to beat this year,” the coach said.
Minutes later,the door opened and Laurie saw a young woman who was about her age.The young woman put some of her belongings onto a chair.However,the bag fell to the floor.
Laurie felt uncomfortable as she looked at Jinny.“So this is my competition,” thought Laurie.“Because of her,I may lose tonight.”
“This costume was my mum’s idea,” Jinny started the conversation,looking down at her red,white,and blue skating dress.“I look like a flag.”
Laurie couldn’t keep from smiling.She pointed to Jinny’s skating bag.“Some stuff fell out of your bag,” Laurie said.
Jinny looked at the clothing and equipment that lay scattered on the floor.As she began to gather her belongings,the door opened.
“Jinny,” called someone,“you’d better give the tape of your music to the sound engineer right away.”
“I thought I gave him my music tape half an hour ago,” said Jinny.“Tell him it’s the green box with my initials(姓名首字母) written in white in the right-hand corner.”
“He claims you never gave it to him,and he is getting angry.”
“Then I don’t know what I did with it,” said Jinny,hurrying out.
Laurie knew that music was nearly as important to the program as skating itself.If she lost her music tape,she might as well forget about skating.Laurie stood up and walked to the chair to do a few more knee bends.
Paragraph 1:
Suddenly she saw something small and dark green behind the leg of the dressing table.
Paragraph 2:
Feeling relieved,Laurie skated quickly to the centre of the rink after the announcer finally called her name.

W:Yes.I want to be happy.I mean,most people talk about jobs and money and that kind of thing.But I don’t think money makes anyone happy.I think I can be happy by helping people.
M:Yeah,maybe that’s true.But what about making a living
W:I’m not sure yet,but I think I want to be a teacher.
M:Well,are you doing anything now to help you prepare for that
W:Um,I’m a volunteer.On weekends there’s a programme where I read stories to little kids.It’s fun,and it makes me happy.

W:Look at our room!It is in a dreadful mess.We must clean it this weekend.
M:OK.
W:But before that,we should do some preparation first.Could you please buy something after work tomorrow Such as cloth,alcohol,and...
M:Perhaps you’d better give me a list.I don’t think I could keep them all in mind.
W:OK.I will give you a list later.
M:By the way,I guess we have alcohol at home,which we bought last month,remember
W:Oh,yes,so we don’t have to buy it now.
M:As for cloth,do you really need it
W:Yes,it’s used to clean the screen of the computer and the mirror,of course.We should use special cloth.
M:I see.

M:Hi,Janet!
W:Hi,Mark!What’s new
M:Well,I just learned I’ll be spending the summer in California.
W:That’s awesome.Where in California
M:Well,my part-time job is in a company,which is in Mountain View...although it would be more fun to live in San Francisco or San Jose...
W:That’s true.But then you’d have to take the train to work.
M:I know.I don’t like that,you know.So,I’ll end up living as close to the company as possible.
W:Mountain View isn’t bad.My cousin lived there when he was attending Stanford,which is in next town over.You can always take the train to the city on weekends.
M:True.Hey,you should come visit me.I can show you around Silicon Valley.
W:That sounds great,but I’m actually going to spend the summer in Paris.My grandma has an apartment there.
M:Cool!Are you going to work while you’re there
W:Nope.I’ve been saving money all year from my job at the café.So,now I’m free to spend the whole summer in museums.I’d also like to take a cooking class,but I won’t have time for it.
M:Sounds awesome.Now I wish I could come to visit you!

M:My name’s Bob,and I’ve come to tell you about the York Dance Band.Now,if you want to have a good family party,like a wedding or an important birthday,and you want all your guests to dance after dinner,then don’t book a noisy disco.Have a live band instead.We play all kinds of dance music,including songs that every age group,from teenagers to grandmothers,can dance to.The band is made up of all sorts of different people—none of us are full-time musicians.We have a doctor,two English teachers,a retired journalist and the band leader who owns a hotel.The band has been together for ten years,but I only joined this year.Now the number has increased from eight to twelve.I was looking for a band to join,and a friend of mine saw an advertisement in the local paper and persuaded me to apply.Before I joined,the band didn’t have a separate singer,but they realised they needed one.They chose me because I’ve always enjoyed getting up and singing in front of an audience,and people say I’ve got a good voice.I’d been in bands before.I even played the guitar rather badly in one,but this band is easily the best.I even enjoy the practices.Now,I’ll just play.

第一节
Dear Jenny,
How nice to hear from you!In your letter you asked me how to keep healthy.I would like to give you some advice.
As we know,food is of great importance to us teenagers.Since we grow very fast,we are in need of nutritious food,such as fresh vegetables,fruit,fish,meat and so on.However,I think you’d better not eat food with much sugar and fat.And you should get plenty of sleep.It is necessary for you to have at least eight hours of sleep every day.In addition,you should take physical exercise regularly.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
Paragraph 1:
Suddenly she saw something small and dark green behind the leg of the dressing table.She pulled it out,and saw the white initials in the top right-hand corner.“It’s Jinny’s music tape!” She exclaimed.Laurie’s heart started beating fast.“All I’d have to do is forget that I found this,” she thought.“If Jinny doesn’t have her music,she might as well not skate.And then I would win.” Laurie shivered slightly as she thought about this.Then she wondered,“Does winning mean so much to me that I’d be willing to cheat for it ” She walked to the door and called Jinny loudly.
Paragraph 2:
Feeling relieved,Laurie skated quickly to the centre of the rink after the announcer finally called her name.The music filled the stadium and she skated gracefully and beautifully.Her left knee was fine and she felt herself gliding on the ice.The audience applauded from time to time,enthusiastically supporting her in her comeback.When she finished,her coach ran up to her and hugged her.“You did it,Laurie!” she said.Laurie smiled and thought about Jinny’s music tape.“No one will ever know how close I really came to losing,” she said softly to herself.
