2.One day Mrs.Smith was sitting in her doctor's waiting room when a young boy and his mother entered the office.The young boy caught Mrs.Smith's attention because he wore a patch over one eye.She felt surprised at how unaffected he seemed to be by the loss of an eye and watched as he followed his mother to a chair nearby.
The doctor's office was very busy that day,so Mrs.Smith had an opportunity to ask the little boy what had happened to his eye while he played with his soldiers.He considered her question for a long moment,then replied, "I'm a pirate(海盜)!" Then he returned to his game.
Mrs.Smith was there because she had lost her leg from the knee down in an auto accident.Her trip today was to determine if it had healed enough to be fitted with a prosthetic(假肢).The loss had been a disaster to her.Intellectually,she knew that this loss should not interfere with her life;but emotionally,she just couldn't overcome this obstacle.Her doctor had suggested imagination,but she had been unable to imagine such an emotionally unacceptable,lasting image.
The word "pirate" changed her life.Instantly,she was transported.She saw herself dressed as Long John Silver,standing aboard a pirate ship.She stood with her legs wide apart one artificial.Her hands were clenched(緊握的) at her hips,her head up and her shoulders back,as she smiled into a storm.Cold water blew across the board as great waves broke against the ship.Still she stood firmly proud,fearless.
A few minutes later,the nurse called her.As she balanced on her walking sticks,the boy noticed her amputation(截肢)."Hey lady," he called,"What?s wrong with your leg?"

3.For centuries,tea has been used for far more than quenching thirst.Around the world people drink it to relax,reinvigorate and relieve,and it's something we need now more than ever.
Even in the United States,a long coffee-dominated country,tea drinking is growing in popularity,with the country consuming 0.4 kilograms(14 ounces 盎司)of tea leaves per person a year compared with 0.36 kilograms (12.7 ounces) in 2007 according to the United Nations,as people switch away from soda,milk and fruit drinks.
Scientists are beginning to look into just how tea might affect mood and cognition.Specifically,they're investigating whether its relaxing and refreshing effects are a direct biological outcome of the compounds in tea or whether they come from the context in which the drink is consumed-preparing your tea,choosing your favorite cup and sitting down for a brief break from the wjye.aild.Or both.
Drinking green tea has been found to improve brain function in healthy people,said Stefan Borgward,chair and director of the department of psychiatry and psychotherapy at the University of Lubeck,Germany.
In a 2014 study,he gave one or two cups of green tea to 12 healthy volunteers and imaged their brains to analyze changes in connectivity inside certain brain regions.
"We noticed an increased connectivity in regions of the brain associated with working memory," he said via email.
And a 2017 review of more than 100 studies he coauthored found that green tea can impact the brain in three ways:It can influence psychopathological state such as reducing anxiety;cognition by benefiting memory and attention;and brain function,specifically memory.
That review concluded that "it would be desirable" for more Westerners to consume at least 100 milliliters (3.3 fluid ounces) of green tea each day "to protect neurocognitive(神經(jīng)認(rèn)知)function."
However,Borgward,cautioned that the effects aren't large,and the evidence is mainly provided by small-scale studies.
(1)How does the author introduce the tendency of drinking in the US?
A.By showing examples.
B.By explaining reasons.
C.By making a comparison.
D.By checking existing facts.
(2)What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.Scientists are looking into why tea makes people relaxed and refreshed.
B.The context in which the drink is consumed is very important.
C.People's relaxation is the direct biological outcome of the ingredients in tea.
D.Preparing tea,choosing a cup and sitting down for a brief rest is amazing.
(3)What can we conclude from Stefan's research?
A.Tea is a cure for a neurocognitive disease.
B.Green tea is particularly beneficial to our memory.
C.Drinking tea every day can prevent us from getting ill.
D.Westerners drink less than 100 milliliters of green tea.
(4)What is the researcher's attitude towards the finding?
A.Supportive
B.Doubtful
C.Unclear
D.Objective組卷:1引用:3難度:0.5 -
4.British birdwatcher are used to bad views.'House sparrow-number's have fallen from an estimated 30 m to 10 m since 1966.Carlews(杓鷸) have become a rare sight,their numbers sharply declining by 50%in 15 years.Cuckoos(布谷鳥(niǎo)),once-frequent visitors from Africa,have decreased by 63%in the south-east in the past two decades.Earlier springs that confuse migrant birds,more efficient farming and the transformation of ruined buildings(good for nesting) into modern homes have all contributed to these woes.
But data released by the British Trust for Omithology(BTO),a research charity,suggest some are rising Tracking bird populations by means of regular surveys,the figures give the clearest picture of 49 species across Britain.
Blackcaps(黑頂林鶯),small woodland birds native to Germany and eastern Europe,are unwilling to return after their summer short visits:since 1967 numbers have increased by 177%.The little egret(小白鷺),a white hero-like bird,arrived from continental Europe in 1989 and now numbers over 5,000.Wood pigeons(斑尾林鴿),once found shyly singing in forests,have bravely moved into cities and suburbs.
Environmental and agricultural changes have helped as well as confused birds.Modern farming techniques allow grain to be planted in the autumn rather than the spring,that helps wood pigeons feed in winter.Warmer winters mean rivers and ponds are less likely to freeze,providing the little egrets with food.James Pearce-Higgins of the BTO says that blackcaps benefit particularly from the increasing popularity of berry bushes in people's gardens.
Birders complain nonetheless.Some of the species booming,such as carrion crows(食腐烏鴉) and buzzards(禿鷹),are disliked.And migrant birds that extend their visits may provide competition for some bird natives.They are"muscling in and getting the first claim on breeding sites",says Richard Cowser of the Sussex Omithological Society.Like their human counterparts(同行),residents of a small island stricken by global winds,British birds will have to learn to compete.
(1)The underlined word "woes"in paragraph 1 probably means
A.tragedy
B.construction
C.damage
D.migration
(2)What might not be the reason for the increase of birds?
A.The access to people's gardens.
B.Modern farming methods.
C.The different environmental patterns.
D.Rebuilding of abandoned houses.
(3)Which of the following statements is correct according to the passage?
A.All bird lovers are satisfied with the situation of birds increasing.
B.Migrant birds lengthening their stays cause threat to the local birds.
C.Black caps whose home is Germany and eastern Europe refuse to stay in Britain.
D.More than 5,000 little egrets arrived in Britain from continental Europe in 1989.
(4)Where might this article come from?
A.A travel brochure.
B.An annual report.
C.A personal journal.
D.A magazine article.組卷:1引用:3難度:0.5 -
5.Dining in space Spacesuits?Check!Oxygen?Check!Water?Check!Are we forgetting something?Food!If you send astronauts into space,you have to send along food as well.But what do astronauts eat,and how do they eat it?(1)
First,and possibly most important,is nutrition(營(yíng)養(yǎng)).Maintaining the astronauts' physical health is a top task for any space mission.Providing junk foods to eat,such as potato chips,sodas,and pizza,would make the astronauts feel unhealthy.
(2)
The lack of gravity in a spacecraft also determines what foods can or cannot be eaten in space.Meals must be packaged carefully so they won't spill into the cabin.Liquids or tiny bits of food could get inside a machine or electronic device and damage it.(3)
(4)
Despite all these requirements,much of the food eaten in space is actually similar to what you might eat on any given day.
A.Variety and taste are also important.
B.Finally,weight is an important concern.
C.Food packaging is made to be as light as possible.
D.Believe it or not,they also have fresh fruits and vegetables.
E.Nutrition and practicality are important things to consider.
F.For the same reason sharp utensils are never used onboard.
G.Scientists take several factors into consideration as they plan meals for space.組卷:3引用:3難度:0.5
