A Beijing-based expert team has reported the world’s first case of a 19-year-old adolescent with Alzheimer’s disease(疾病) (AD). It is a condition normally related to old people. The team released the research results in Journal(杂志) of Alzheimer’s Disease.
The patient(病人) developed memory problems at 17 years old and was then diagnosed with AD at 19. The patient first began to have difficulty focusing on learning. One year later, the patient suffered great short-term memory loss, an inability to remember the previous(之前的) day’s events or where personal things were stored, as well as reading difficulties and slow reactions.
Later the patient continued to suffer gradual memory loss, even struggling to remember having eaten. As a result，the patient had to drop out of(退学) high school. The patient has no family history of AD and no other causes of memory problems such as genetic(基因的) issues or other diseases.
Since the first case of AD was reported in 1906, it has been widely believed that AD mainly occurs in the old. AD is a disease with a slow beginning. It can bring gradual loss of cognition(认知), memory and speech and an increase in mental(心智的) problems over time. It even leads to the inability to take care of oneself in time. It is still difficult to treat the disease.
The study has confirmed that AD is no longer a disease limited to the old. The team call for more attention to the possibility of AD occurring in younger people. Healthy habits may help prevent AD. Consider the following steps: exercise, eat the Mediterranean diet(地中海饮食), get enough sleep, learn new things and connect socially.
8. What is special about the newly-reported case
A. The patient was diagnosed at 17. B. The patient has a family history of AD.

Second-hand clothes are usually less expensive than new ones. Next, we can eat better to stay healthy. We should buy fresh fruits and vegetables to reduce the waste of resources when processing food.

Nzou is one of the quiet stars of the Rhino& Elephant Conservation(保护) Programme at Imire in Zimbabwe(津巴布韦). The oldest elephant in the protected area, Nzou is around 55 years old, and has been there since she was two years old.
It is said that elephants never forget, but this special animal seems to have forgotten she is an elephant，and now thinks of herself as one of the buffaloes(水牛).
Nzou was brought to the area in the 1970s, when she lost her parents. She was encouraged to stay with the elephants. But she was happy with the buffaloes and has lived with them ever since. They could understand each other. Their relationship is amazing but not easy. Buffalo leaders are usually male(雄性的). Over the 40+ years that Nzou has been the leader, she has killed 14 young male buffalo who challenged her.
Nzou has never lost her elephant's instinct(本能) for loyalty(忠诚). One day, one of her keepers was attacked by a young male buffalo. Nzou stood over him as he waited for help to arrive, protecting him against more attacks from the buffalo.
Nzou no longer communicates with the other elephants at Imire perhaps she has forgotten how and no longer understands what they are saying. She is happy with the buffalo, and as long as they don't step out of line, she is happy and pleased to be their leader.
4. How long has Nzou been at Imire
A. 70 years. B. 55 years. C. 2 years. D. 53 years.

A Beijing-based expert team has reported the world’s first case of a 19-year-old adolescent with Alzheimer’s disease(疾病) (AD). It is a condition normally related to old people. The team released the research results in Journal(杂志) of Alzheimer’s Disease.
The patient(病人) developed memory problems at 17 years old and was then diagnosed with AD at 19. The patient first began to have difficulty focusing on learning. One year later, the patient suffered great short-term memory loss, an inability to remember the previous(之前的) day’s events or where personal things were stored, as well as reading difficulties and slow reactions.
Later the patient continued to suffer gradual memory loss, even struggling to remember having eaten. As a result，the patient had to drop out of(退学) high school. The patient has no family history of AD and no other causes of memory problems such as genetic(基因) issues or other diseases.
Since the first case of AD was reported in 1906, it has been widely believed that AD mainly occurs in the old. AD is a disease with a slow beginning. It can bring gradual loss of cognition(认知), memory and speech and an increase in mental(心智的) problems over time. It even leads to the inability to take care of oneself in time. It is still difficult to treat the disease.
The study has confirmed that AD is no longer a disease limited to the old. The team call for more attention to the possibility of AD occurring in younger people. Healthy habits may help prevent AD. Consider the following steps: exercise, eat the Mediterranean diet(地中海饮食), get enough sleep, learn new things and connect socially.
8. What is special about the newly-reported case
A. The patient was diagnosed at 17. B. The patient has a family history of AD.
C. The patient is too young for the disease. D. It's the world's first case of Alzheimer's disease.
9. What is true about Alzheimer’s disease according to Paragraph 4
A. It can never be cured. B. It only occurs in the old.
C. It will become worse over time. D. The first case was reported in the 1910s.
10. Which of the following habits doesn’t help lower the danger of getting AD according to the passage
A. making efforts to learn a foreign language B. taking a walk every day
C. talking to many people every day D. staying up working every night
11. In which part of a newspaper may this text appear
A Entertainment B. Health C. Education D. Technology
D
Plastic pollution is one of the earth’s greatest challenges that humans have faced and often neglected. Anyone who uses plastic has caused problems in one way or another. In order to solve the environmental problems, more and more people are starting to live a simple and environmental-friendly life called zero-waste lifestyle.
When you choose a zero-waste lifestyle, you pay more attention to how your consumption habits influence the environment. You’re more careful about what you buy and how you use it. So how can you live a zero-waste life Actually when looking at your rubbish, you’ll grasp what it is.
There are two main types of rubbish. The first is food packaging, so we should learn how to shop for things with no big pack or package-free. The second is product packaging, so we should learn how to make our own products in a green way. With our efforts, we will reduce a large amount of rubbish. Shopping for second-hand goods is also important. Instead of buying new clothes and putting new waste into the waste cycle, we should buy things that are second-hand or can be totally recycled.
There are many advantages of living a zero-waste life. Firstly, we can save money by making things ourselves and buying second-hand goods. Second-hand clothes are usually less expensive than new ones. Next, we can eat better to stay healthy. We should buy fresh fruits and vegetables to reduce the waste of resources when processing food.
Although government policies can make a difference, it needs everyone’s efforts to completely solve the problem. From now on, let’s begin to live a green life.
12. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. The challenge of improving the environment. B. The importance of improving the environment.
C. The advantage of living a zero-waste life. D. The reason for living a zero-waste life.
13. The underlined word “grasp” in paragraph 2 probably means “________” in the passage.
A. understand B. catch C. improve D. doubt
14. How can we reduce rubbish according to the passage
A. Buying food with fine packaging. B. Using plastic bottles wisely.
C. Shopping for second-hand products. D. Throwing away your old clothes.
15. The passage is mainly written to________.
A. explain why the environment is polluted B. call on more people to live a green life
C. share some useful ways of reducing rubbish D. talk about environmental problems in the future

Sorry for not being able to write to you in the past two months, but I’ve just been preparing for my visit to China.

I feel both excited and nervous about this coming new life experience. I am excited because I have always wanted to visit your country and nervous because it is a completely strange land for me. Could you please give me some advice about dealing with my host family
Hope I can visit you and your family while in China!
Love,
Michael
