• 2．One night，as I was driving down the road，I found something was sitting in the middle of the road.A few seconds later，I realized I was looking at a large turtle（海龜）.Afraid of it being crashed by cars.so I pulled over，ran across the road and dragged the turtle to safety.But I'd made one big mistake.
     I had heard that the best way to pick up a turtle without hurting it was picking it by the tail in order not to get bitten.So I'd made that big mistake.While the turtle turned out OK generally，I was determined to figure out how to move a turtle properly.I needed to find someone who dealt with turtles.I found the Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre.I talked to Dr.Sue，its Executive and Medical Director.
     Dr.Sue told me that the organization dealt with a number of aspects of turtle conservation，including rescue，settlement，birth programs，research，and education.Sue explained that southern Ontario is home to a vast majority of turtles in Canada，but is also one of the vastest road networks of the country.
     "Ninety percent of injured turtles brought in are caused by cars.These turtles spend a lot of time on land.And they do travel many kilometers on land for a variety of reasons，to find a nesting spot，or to hang out for the summer or winter.Turtles know where they want to go.So，just keep them going in the direction they want to go and you may have saved a turtle's life，"Dr.Sue said.
     Once an injured turtle arrives at the center，there are medical facilities（設(shè)備） ready to go，including an X-ray machine.That's when the team gets to work with healing injuries，and help their patient.
  
  （1）Why did the author stop the car？

  
  A．To help the turtle.

  C．To prevent a car accident.
  D．To find something good.
  （2）What happened to the turtle？

  
  A．It got hurt by people previous.
  B．It was injured a little bit.
  C．It was run over by a car.
  D．It lost its direction.
  （3）What did Dr.Sue suggest at last？

• 3．Have you been exercising and eating healthy，but when you step on the scale（稱），it says you've gained a few pounds？ "That's normal，and it doesn't mean that your workouts（鍛煉） are not effective"，says Jeffrey A.Dolgan，an exercise physiologist in Miami Beach，F(xiàn)lorida.
     "A person's scale mass （質(zhì)量） is a combination of muscle（肌肉），fat，bone，blood，and even the air that we carry in our lungs，" he says. "Immediately after a workout routine，the percentage of mass in each body part can shift as much as 15 percent.So if you're gaining weight while working out and eating healthy，it's probably not the type of weight gain that you think it is.
     The scale can't tell you how much of your body weight is muscle or fat，which means if your goal is to improve your fitness level，the scale is not the best tool for measuring improvements.When you start to change your body composition with your workouts — by building more muscle mass and decreasing your body fat — your scale weight may increase，while your body fat percentage may decrease.These changes happen over weeks and months （not hours or days） so the scale is useless when tracking them.
     You may argue that you weigh a few pounds less after a high intensity （強度） training class.Don't get too excited—it's just water loss due to sweat.Water makes up approximately 65 to 90 percent of a person's weight，and variation in water content of the human body can move the scale by ten pounds or more from day to day.
     So ignore the scale and pay more attention to objective measurement tools like body composition.Keep in mind that if you're exercising but gaining weight，you may actually look slimmer.
  
  （1）What can we know from Dolgan's words from paragraph 2？

  
  A．Your weight changes little during a day.
  B．Your scale mass is affected by many factors.
  C．Your workout is not effective if you gain weight.
  D．Your weight is determined only by muscle and fat.
  （2）What will most probably happen after you exercise and eat healthy for 3 months？

  
  A．You will weigh more.
  B．Your muscle mass will decrease.
  C．Your body composition will change.
  D．Your body fat will increase.
  （3）How much water may a man weighing 150 pounds have in his body？

  
  A．30 pounds.
  B．60 pounds.
  C．100 pounds.
  D．140 pounds.
  （4）Which of the following could be the best title for the text？

  
  A．Why Do We Gain Weight？
  B．How to Work Out Effectively？
  C．What Is the Composition of Our Body？
  D．Why Does My Workout Cause Weight Gain？

• 4．For people suffering from depression，there's an all-natural treatment they should use-getting more exercise.It could help fight depression，even if people have a genetic risk，new research shows.
     For the study，researchers collected information from nearly 8，000 people and found those with related genes were more likely to have depression over the next two years after examining them.But that was less likely for people who were more active at the study's start，even if they had a family history of depression.Higher levels of physical activity helped protect even those with the highest genetic risk of depression.
     Both high-intensity （高強度） exercise and low-intensity activities were associated with a reduced risk of depression.Adding four hours of exercise a week could lower the risk of a new episode （一段經(jīng)歷） of depression by 17%，according to the study. "Our findings strongly suggest that，when it comes to depression，being physically active has the potential to remove the added risk of future episodes in individuals who are genetically risky，" said lead author Karmel Choi. "On average，about 35 additional minutes of physical activity each day may help people to reduce their risk and protect against future depression episodes."
      Depression is a common mental illness globally，with more than 264 million people affected. "Depression is so ubiquitous，and that underlines the need for effective approaches that can impact as many people as possible，" Choi said.And mental health and primary care providers can use the findings to advise patients that there's something meaningful they can do to lower their risk of depression.
  
  （1）How did the researchers reach their conclusion？

  
  A．By analyzing a mass of data.
  B．By conducting genetic research.
  C．By comparing various levels of activity.
  D．By tracking the subjects for many years.
  （2）What does the study show about depression？

  
  A．Physical activity betters medical treatment.
  B．Exercise is able to decrease and prevent it.
  C．Different levels of exercise intensity matter the same.
  D．Exercising 35 minutes daily is the most effective treatment.
  （3）What does the underlined word "ubiquitous" in paragraph 4 mean？

  
  A．Harmful.
  B．Complex.
  C．Unusual.
  D．Common.
  （4）What is the purpose of the text？

  
  A．To discuss a disease.
  B．To introduce a method.
  C．To analyze a genetic risk.
  D．To explain a phenomenon.

• 5．Four Ways to Be a Great Roommate Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences in college or，easily，one of the worst. （1）

  .Follow these tips to avoid the common mistakes that turn good roommate relationships sour
     Talk things out.Communication is key.If something happens，sit down with your roommate and，have a face-to-face conversation.I've seen roommate relationships fall apart because something happens and，instead of talking to each other，the two，start complaining about their roommates behind their backs.（2）

  .
     Don't expect to be best friends.Some roommates become the best of friends，and some don't.Don't put pressure on yourself or your roommate，especially when you first meet.（3）

  .And if your roommate doesn't end up being your best friend，don't worry.
     Ask before you take.This applies to food，clothes and anything else.If you want to keep a relationship going，show your roommate that you have respect for what is his or hers by asking first.（4）

  .
     Clean up after yourself.This should do without saying.Don't be lazy.Or，at least，don't bury your roommate in your clothes and garbage.Most people I've come across in college are messy.（5）

  .But being considerate with where you put your stuff will help you avoid conflict.
  
  

  A.So you need to think twice before you help your roommates out B.This creates nothing but awkward situations and unhappiness C.Even if you both agree to share everything，you should still ask D.You don't have all the time to clean your room and keep it organized E.It all starts with you to have a good relationship with your roommate F.Sometime you get stuck with someone who has tons of negative energy G.Remember，you're trying to make a new friend，not to scare your roommate away
