问题：共用题干 New Foods and the New WorldIn the last 500 years,nothing about people—not their clothes,ideas,or languages—has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians .The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500's .And although it was very expensive,it quickly became fashionable.In London,shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600,the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe,where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the“Potato Famine”of 1845—1846,and thou- sands more were forced to emigrate to America.There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world's largest grower of coffee,and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries.But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400's.According to an Arabic legend,coffee was discovered when a person named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush.He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake”feeling that one-third of the world's population now starts the day with. Thousands of Irish people starved during the“Potato Famine”because______.A: they were so dependent on the potato that they refused to eat anything elseB: they were forced to emigrate to AmericaC: the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing the potatoD:.the potato harvest was bad

问题：共用题干 Retirement Brings Most a Big Health BoostThe self-reported health of the newly retired improves so much that most feel eight years younger,a new European study suggests.This happy news was true of almost everyone except a small minority一only 2 percent一who had experi- enced"ideal"conditions in their working life,anyway."The results really say three things:that work puts an extra burden on the health of older workers,that the effects of this extra burden are largely relieved by retirement and,finally,that both the extra burden and the relief are larger when working conditions are poor,"said Hugo Westerlund,lead author of a study pub- lished online Nov. 9 in The Lancet（柳叶刀）." This indicates that there is need to provide opportunities for older workers to decrease the demands in their work out of concern for their health and well-being."But of course,added Westerlund,who is head of epidemiology at the Stress Research Institute at Stockholm University in Sweden,"not all older workers suffer from poor perceived health.Many are indeed remarkably healthy and fit for work.But sooner or later,everyone has to slow down because of old age catch-ing up."Last week,the same group of researchers reported that workers slept better after retirement than before. "Sleep improves at retirement,which suggests that sleeping could be a mediator between work and perception of poor health,"Westerlund said.This study looked at what the same 15,000 French workers,and most of them had to say about their own health up to seven years pre-retirement and up to seven years post-retirement.As participants got closer to retirement age,their perception of their own health declined,but went upagain during the first year of retirement.Those who reported being in poorer health declined from 19.2 percent in the year prior to retirement to 14.3 percent by the end of the first year after retiring. According to the researchers,that means post-retire- ment levels of poor health fell to levels last seen eight years previously.The changes were seen in both men and women,across different occupations,and lasted through the first seven years of not punching the clock.Workers who felt worse before retirement and had lower working conditions reported greater improve- ments as soon as they retired,the team found.Most of the newly retired feel younger and healthier than before.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned

问题：共用题干 Friendly Relations with the People Around1 You depend on all the people closely around to give you the warm feeling of belongingness（归属）that you must have to feel secure. But, in fact, the members of all the groups to which you belong also depend on you to give that feeling to them.A person who shows that he wants everything for himself is bound（一定的）to be a lonely wolf.2 The need for companionship is closely related to the need for a sense of belongingness. How sad and lonely your life would be if you had no one to share your feelings and experiences.You may take it for granted that there will always be people around to talk to and to do things with you and for you.The important point,however,is that keeping emotionally healthy does not depend so much upon having people around you as upon your ability to establish relationships that are satisfying both to you and to them.3 Suppose you are in a crowd watching a football game.You don't know them.When the game is over,you will all go your separate ways.But just for a while you had a feeling of companionship,of sharing the feelings of others who were cheering for the team you wanted to win.4 An experience of this kind gives the clue（线索）to what companionship really is. It depends upon emotional ties of sympathy,understanding,trust,and affection.Companions become friends when these ties are formed.5 When you are thrown in a new circle of acquaintances（熟人）,you may not know with whom you will make friends,but you can be sure that you will be able to establish friendships if you show that you really like people. The ability to establish fine relations with others will keep you________.A:without pityB:sad and lonelyC:emotionally healthyD:without real love for themE:a sense of securityF:a lonely wolf

问题：共用题干 GarlicFrom early times man has used garlic（大蒜）.The Bible speaks of it. The Israelites （古以色列人）were once far from home. They cried out to Moses, their leader, for the foods they loved: leeks（韭菜）,onions, and garlic. The Romans, like the Israelites, loved to eat garlic.And they hung bags of garlic around their necks.________(1) They also thought it would keep them from getting sick.A similar idea is still held.Many people take garlic thinking it will prevent or cure disease.Most doctors say it does no such thing.________(2)Its smell may force people to stay far apart.At least then they can't pass germs on to each other._________(3)What if you're in a play,for instance?Actors have been known to forget their lines because they couldn't stand the garlic smell on a fellow actor's breath. Some have even made up new lines and actions that kept them far away from the one who had eaten garlic.Through the years man has tried to cope with the smell of garlic._________(4) We now know why.It's been found that the oils of the garlic do not stick to the teeth, tongue,or gums（牙眼）.They go into the lungs instead.From there they are breathed out.They pass out through the skin too.Strange as it seems,food may have a great deal of garlic in it without smelling or tasting strong.It all depends on how it is cooked.French cooks make a good soup with whole cloves（瓣）of garlic.They use more than thirty cloves in one bowl of soup.But they take care not to crush them.And they cook them whole._________(5)And as the cloves cook they change in some strange way.The soup turns out to be delicious.It's not strong at all._________（3）A:But no medicine,mouthwash,chewing gum,or toothpaste seems to help much.B:As a result,the strong oils stay in the cloves.C:They say it may help in one way,though.D:Many people eat garlic.E:But keeping your distance can be hard at times.F:They hoped it would keep away the evil eye.

问题：共用题干 The World's Best-Selling MedicineSince ancient times,people all over the world have used willow to stop pain. The willow tree contains salicylic acid（水杨酸）.This stops pain, but there is one problem. Salicylic acid also hurts the stomach. In 1853,a French scientist made a mixture from willow that did not hurt the stomach.However,his mixture was difficult to make,and he did not try to produce or sell it.In 1897,in Germany,Felix Hoffmann also made a mixture with salicylic acid. He tried it himself first and then gave it to his father because his father was old and in a lot of pain.His father's pain went away,and the mixture did not hurt his stomach.Hoffmann worked for Bayer,a German company. He showed his new drug to his manager,who tested the drug and found that it worked well.Bayer decided to make the drug.They called it aspirin and put the Bayer name on every pill.Aspirin was an immediate success. Almost everyone has pain of some kind,so aspirin answered a true need. Aspirin was cheap,easy to take,and effective. It also lowered fevers.Aspirin was a wonder drug.At first,Bayer sold the drug through doctors,who then sold it to their patients. In 1915,the company started to sell aspirin in drugstores.In the United States,Bayer had a patent（专利权）on the drug. Other companies could make similar products and sell them in other countries,but only bayer could make and sell aspirin in the United States.In time,Bayer could no longer own the name aspirin in the United States. Other companies could make it there,too.However,Bayer aspirin was the most well known,and for many years,it was the market leader.By the 1950s,new painkillers were on the market. Aspirin was no longer the only way to treat pain and reduce fever. Bayer and other companies looked for other drugs to make.However,in the l970s they got a surprise. Doctors noticed that patients who were taking aspirin had fewer heart attacks than other people. A British researcher named John Vane found the reason aspirin helped to prevent heart attacks.In 1982,he won the Nobel prize for his research. Doctors started to tell some of their patients to take aspirin every day to prevent heart attacks.It has made life better for the many people who take it. It has also made a lot of mon-ey for companies like Bayer that produce and sell it!What has happened to aspirin since new painkillers came on the market?A: Companies have stopped selling it.B: It has become the best-selling painkiller.C: Its new use has been discovered.D: Doctors have sold it to patients.

问题：共用题干 Warm People Likely to Keep Cold at BayStaying positive through the cold season could be your best defense against getting ill,new study findings suggest.In an experiment that exposed healthy volunteers to a cold or flu virus,researchers found that people with a generally sunny disposition were less likely to fall ill.The findings,published in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine,build on evidence that a"positive emotional style"can help ward off the common cold and other illnesses.Researchers believe the reasons may be both objective as in happiness boosting immune function and subjective as in happy people being less troubled by a scratchy throat or runny nose?"People with a positive emotional style may have different immune responses to the virus,"explained lead study author Dr Sheldon Cohen of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh."And when they do get a cold,they may interpret their illness as being less severe."Cohen and his colleagues had found in a previous study that happier people seemed less susceptible to catching a cold,but some questions remained as to whether the emotional trait itself had the effect.For the new study,the researchers had 193 healthy adults complete standard measures of personality traits,self-perceived health and emotional"style".Those who tended to be happy,energetic and easy-going were judged as having a positive emotional style,while those who were often unhappy,tense and hostile had a negative style.The researchers gave them nasal drops containing either a cold virus or a particular flu virus.Over the next six days,the volunteers reported on any aches,pains,sneezing or congestion they had,while the researchers collected objective data,like daily mucus production.Cohen and his colleagues found that based on objective measures of nasal woes,happy people were less likely to develop a cold.The researchers chose 193 adults who had a negative style for the study.A:Right B:Wrong C:Not mentioned

问题：共用题干 More About Alzheimer 's DiseaseScientists have developed skin tests that may be used in the future to identify people with Alzheimer's disease and may ultimately allow physicians to predict who is at risk of getting this neurological（神经病学的）disorder.The only current means of diagnosing the disease in a living patient is a long and expensive series of tests that eliminate every other cause of dementia. "Since Alois Alzheimer described the disease nearly a century ago,people have been trying to find a way to accurately diagnose it in its early stages,"said Patricia Grady,acting director of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke in Bethesda,Maryland."This discovery,if confirmed,could prove a big step forward in our efforts to deal with and understand the disease."Alzheimer's is the single greatest cause of mental deterioration in older people,affecting between 2.5 million and 4 million people in the United States alone.The devastating disorder gradually destroys memory and the ability to function,and eventually causes death.There is currently no known treatment for the disease.Researchers discovered that the skin cells of Alzheimer’s patients have defects that interfere with their ability to regulate the flow of potassium in and out of the cells.The fact that the cell defects are present in the skin suggests that Alzheimer's results from physiological changes throughout the body,and that dementia may be the first noticeable effect of these changes as the defects affect the cells in the brain,scientists said.The flow of potassium is especially critical in cells responsible for memory formation.The scientists also found two other defects that affect the cells'supply of calcium,another critical element.One test developed by researches calls for growing skin cells in a laboratory culture and then testing them with an electrical detector to determine if the microscopic tunnels that govern the flow of potassium are open.Open potassium channels create a unique electrical signature.A spokesman for the Alzheimer's Association said that if the validity of the diagnostic test can be proven it would be an important development,but he cautioned that other promising tests for Alzheimer's have been disappointing.The newly developed skin tests may be used in the future to allow doctors to______.A:cure those with Alzheimer's diseaseB:discover the cause of Alzheimer's diseaseC:predict who might get Alzheimer's diseaseD:find the consequences of Alzheimer's disease

问题：共用题干 Flu Shots Or Not?It sounded like a good idea when New York City's mayor,Rudollph Giuliani,advised New Yorkers recently to get a flu shot.After all,20,000 Americans each year die of influenza. And this year in particular,the mayor suggested,getting a flu shot might be an especially good idea, since it could help doctors distinguish between flu and the deadly inhalational（吸入的）form of anthrax（炭疽）.How? Both anthrax and flu exhibit strikingly similar symptoms-fever, chills and muscle aches-in the early days of the infection.Physicians would be quick to suspect anthrax in anyone who was vaccinated（接种疫苗）against flu and still developed fever and chills. That would give them a better chance to identify any new victims of terror while their infection was still in its earliest,most treatable stages.Or so the mayor's reasoning went. Unfortunately,there are a couple of problems with his log-ic .For one thing,getting vaccinated against influenza doesn't guarantee you won't get sick .Al-though highly effective,the flu vaccine（疫苗）protects against only the dominant types of the dis-ease and even then does not provide 100% protection.It takes a couple of weeks for your body to respond to the vaccine with a sufficient number of antibodies（抗体）.Each year thousands ofAmericans who get the vaccine nevertheless still get the flu.There are also plenty of reasons you might develop fever,chills and muscle aches that have nothing to do with either anthrax or flu .Indeed,doctors estimate that more than 80%of all flu-like illnesses each winter are caused by other groups of viruses.Getting vaccinated against flu can't protect you against suffering from these other illnesses.In the worst case,asking all healthy adults to get vaccinated could actually have the opposite effect to the one intended,leading to even more deaths if it means we run out of shots for those who are most vulnerable to the infection.Already there have been delays in getting this year's shipment of vaccine to clinics and doctor's offices.Those who should be at the front of the line in-clude folks who are 65 or older,nursing-home residents and adults and children with chronic health problems as well as anyone who cares for or lives with such people .Flu shots are also im- portant for men and women whose immune system is weakened by HIV（艾滋病病毒）or other conditions.The best reason to get the flu vaccine is that it proteets against most flus-not that you're worried about getting anthrax.While inhalational anthrax has killed only five people so far,many more could be at risk from flu-related complications.There's no need to worsen the tragedy by making this year's influenza epidemic any worse. Some other illnesses may exhibit symptoms similar to those of flu and anthrax.A: RightB: WrongC: Not mentioned

问题：共用题干 A Personal Look at Kllnefelter Syndrome1 I was diagnosed with Kllnefelter Syndrome(KS)（遗传性细精管发育不全）a little morethan a year ago,at the age of 25,in February 1996.Being diagnosed has been a big sighof relief after a life of frustrations.Throughout my early childhood and adolescence,I wasvery shy,reserved,and had trouble making friends.I would fly into rages for no apparentreason.My parents knew when I was very young that there was something about me thatwasn't right.2 I saw many psychologists, psychiatrists（精神科医生）,therapists（临床医学家）,anddoctors,and their only diagnosis was"learning disabilities".In the seventh grade,I wastold by a psychologist that I was stupid and lazy,and I would never amount to anything. After barely graduating from high school , I started out at a local community college.Ireceived an associate degree in business administration , and never once sought specialhelp.I transferred to a small liberal arts college to finish up my bachelor of science degree,and spent an extra year to complete a second degree. Then I started a job as a softwareengineer for an Internet-based company.I have been using computers for 17 years andhave learned everything I needed to know on my own.3 To find out my KS diagnosis. I had gone to my general physician for a physicalexamination.He noticed that my testes（睾丸）were smaller than they should be and sentme for blood work. The karyotype（染色体组型）showed KS, 47, XXY. After seeingthe symptoms of KS and what effects they might have,I found it described me perlectly.But,after getting over the initial shock and dealing with the denial,depression,andanger,I decided that there could be things much worse in life,I decided to take a positiveapproach.4 There are several types of treatments for KS. I give myself a testosterone（睾丸素）injection once every two weeks.My learning and thought processes have become stronger, and I take greater pleasure in meeting other people and have become more of a leader. Granted,not all of this is due to the increased testosterone level,some of it is from a newconfidence level and from maturing.5 I feel that parents who are finding out prior to the birth of their son that he will have KSare very lucky.There is so much they can do to help their child have a great life.I havehad almost all of the symptoms at some time in my life,and I've gotten through and donewell. Upon learning about the KS diagnosis,the writer felt________.A:a great lifeB:relieved and happyC:a life of frustrationsD:a good-for-nothingE:shocked and depressedF:shy and reserved
