第3题：
In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a "weight problem". To many people, the cause is obvious: we eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of 1910, we find that people were leaner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less, and didn't watch TV.
Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as a 1979 study of 3, 545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.
Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University found the following interesting fact:
The more the man ran, the greater loss of body fat.
The more they ran, the greater their increase in food intake.
Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.
1、What kind of physical problem do many adult Americans have?____
A、They are too slim.
B、They work too hard.
C、They are too fat.
D、 They lost too much body fat.
2、Based upon the statistics given in the article, suppose there are 500 adult Americans, about how many of them will have a "weight problem"?____
A、 30.
B、 50.
C、100.
D、150.
3、Is there scientific evidence to support that eating too much is the cause of a "weight problem"?____
A、Yes, there is plenty of evidence.
B、Of course, there is some evidence to show this is true.
C、There is hardly any scientific evidence to support this.
D、We don't know because the information is not given
4、In comparison with the adult American population today, the Americans of ____.
A、ate more food and had more physical activities
B、ate less food but had more activities
C、 ate less food and had less physical exercise
D、had more weight problems
5、What have modern medical and scientific researches reported to us?____
A、Fat people eat less food and are less active.
B、 Fat people eat more food than slim people and are more active.
C、 Fat people eat more food than slim people but are less active.
D、 Thin people run less, but have greater increase in food intake.

Chinese Dialects（方言）
The enormous differences in Chinese dialects have been a continuing problem ever since China became an empire in 221 B.C.,and it is one big reason why the country has remained impoverished （贫穷）.Of the 600 million people,all but a very small number speak Chinese. But the dialects vary so widely that the speech of Peking,for example,is as different from the speech of Canton as English is from German.
There is,to be sure,only one written language for all China,but it bears no phonetic（语音的）relationship to any of the spoken dialects.Moreover,it has so many symbols that only a tiny portion of the population has ever mastered it.
As a result,most Chinese have been isolated for centuries from a free flow of ideas and from the economic progress that such a flow produces.Many dynasties tried with little success to break down the wall. After recognizing the importance of having a literate people for working in a technological world and for developing an effective propaganda（宣传）machine,the present government is putting everything it has into tackling the language problem. But the obstacles are so formidable（难以应付的）that the results cannot yet be predicted.
At the heart of the problem is the dialects.The dialects prevented the evolution of a single written language based on phonetics.Instead,the Chinese were forced to develop a system that has no relation to sound,and they have clung to it for more than 3,000 years.When this system is applied to a whole language,it results in an overwhelming number of symbols.
There are about 50,000 entries in a Chinese dictionary not counting the compounds（复合词）. In order to be literate,a Chinese must learn 6,000;to be moderately educated,12,000.An English-speaking child,having to conquer only a twenty-six-letter alphabet,has usually learned to read by the time he begins the third grade.A Chinese child needs at least five more years of elementary learning;in the seventh grade,he can barely read a Chinese newspaper.The main reason why there are a great number of symbols in Chinese language is that______.
A:China failed to develop a single written language based on phonetics
B:a Chinese child is supposed to learn much more words than his English speaking counterpart
C:enormous differences in Chinese dialects
D:the Chinese language system has no relation to sound
E:educate more people to learn the same language
F: there is only a small part of the population who understand the large number of symbols答案：D解析：本题考查的是对所读材料大意与主旨的掌握。本段主要讲中国方言之间有巨大的差异，第一句话就是本段的主题句。另外，该段还举出北京话与广东话之间差别的例子。故选D。
本题考查的是对所读材料大意与主旨的掌握以及抽象概括能力。本段谈到语言问题阻碍了思想与经济的交流，历朝政府都想解决这一问题。当前政府已经认识到解决语言问题的重要性，投入全力来对付。所以，该段的主题是tackling the language problem,.tackling的意思就是选项A的dealing with，故选A。
本题考查的是对所读材料大意与主旨的掌握。本段讲到关键问题是方言，方言使单一的书面语无法同读音相联系，中国人只好创立了一套与发音无关的系统，这造成了繁多的字符。可见问题的核心是方言。故选E。
本题考查的同样是对所读材料大意与主旨的掌握。本段讲汉字繁多，难于掌握，对比了中国孩子与讲英语的孩子学习阅读的进度，反衬出汉语之难学。故选B。
本题考查的是对文章的主旨与细节的了解。本题答案的依据在第一段的第一句话。该句说这个国家（中国）之所以长期贫穷，一个重要原因是中国各地方言差别太大 ( the enormous differences in Chinese dialects)。故选C。
本题考查的是对文章的主旨与细节的了解。本题答案的依据在第四段的第二句。在作者看来，方言的繁多使中国不能发展出一套以音节为基础的单一书面语，故选A。
本题考查的是对文章的主旨与细节的了解。本题答案的依据在第四段的二、三、四句。正因为中国不能发展出一套以音节为基础的单一书面语，语言系统与发音无关，这就势必造成大量字符的出现。最后一句话中的results in就是“导致”的意思。倒数第二句则说明了原因。故选D。
本题考查的是对文章的主旨与细节的了解以及抽象概括能力。本题与上面的第26题有联系，答案的依据在最后一段。该段举出中外儿童学习阅读的进度对比的例子，所给数据显示，中国孩子在学习母语时要比外国孩子掌握更多的生词。这就是作者认为的二者的不同之处。故选B。 -
第7题：
It is widely accepted that English is the global language of modern times.
About three decades ago,French was recognized as the language of diplomacy（外交）,and German was considered the language of science and technology.English now dominates（主导）not only as the language of science but also diplomacy,computing,and tourism.Today,in terms of native speakers,Mandarin Chinese is the world′s
largest language.
Yet there are people who believe that China will become the most powerful country in the world.Some have?even fixed the date as early as the year 2020.At present,while English is more widely spoken than any other?language,there are more people who speak Chinese than English due to the large population in China alone.If China?does become a world power,there is no doubt that this language will spread worldwide.
As the controversy over which language will become dominant in the world continues,there are many who feel?that the dominance of English is unique and irreversible（不可逆的）.However,a separate study from David Graddol′s suggests that English′s dominance in the scientific area will continue.There is also an argument that the?English language would be changed greatly by 2020 for various reasons.With the possibility of China rising as a?world power,Mandarin could definitely challenge the dominance of English as a global language.
The author says that Chinese is expected to spread worldwide if__________.A.China becomes a real world power
B.China has a larger population
C.China has the modern technology
D.more tourists come to China答案：A解析： -

问答题◆Topic 8：Living Alone Questions for Reference: 1) More and more people are living by themselves today. Explain the reason. 2) What’s the advantages and disadvantages of living alone? 3) Which is the best way to have a happy life according to your understanding?正确答案： 【参考答案】
You come home alone after a long day at work. You open the door to your home. No one is there. Is it blessed silence you hear or echoing emptiness?
Millions of people who live alone today may have either experience. Some love living alone, yet others wish they didn’t have to.
When they open that door at night, people who live alone do not have to put up with demands or listen to someone’ s noise or meet anyone’ s dinner deadlines. They do not have to debate about which TV program to watch or stay off the phone because someone else is expecting an important call. No one else messes up their kitchen.
But when they are sick, no one else will bring them an aspirin or call the doctor. Preparing dinner for one can be difficult, and eating dinner for one night after night can be very lonely. Perhaps no one really cares what they did all day. If they are feeling sad, there may be no one to cheer them up. Some people who live alone say the worst times come when something very good happens because there is no one to share the joy.
During the course of a lifetime, one may sometimes live with others and sometimes live alone.
Each way of life has its advantages. Learning to take advantage of them is one key to contentment. 解析： 暂无解析 -

English and English Community
1There is no doubt that English is a useful language.The people who speak English
today make up the largest speech community in the world with the exception of speakers of
Chinese.
2 A speech community is similar to other kinds of communities.The people who make up
the community share a common language.Often they live side by side,as they do in a
neighborhood（街坊）,a village,or a city. More often they form a whole country. National
boundaries,however,are not always the same as the boundaries of a speech community.
A speech community is any group of people who speak the same language no matter where
they happen to live.
3 We may say that anyone who speaks English belongs to the English speech community.
For convenience（方便）,we may divide the speakers into two groups:one in which the
speakers use English as their native language,the other in which the speakers learn English
as a second language for the purpose of education,commerce,and so on.
4 Learning a second language extends one's vision and expands the mind.The history
and literature of a second language record the real and fictional（虚构的）lives of people
and their culture;a knowledge of them adds to our ability to understand and to feel as they
feel .Learning English as a second language provides another means of communication
through which the window of the entire English speech community becomes a part of our
heritage.Overall there are more speakers of Chinese than of_________.
A: a second language
B: the same language
C: the same speech community
D:any other language
E:national boundaries
F:a part of one's heritage答案：D解析： -
