While fighting world hunger continues to be the matter of vital importance according to a recent report from the World Health Organization (WHO), more people now die from being overweight, or say, from being extremely fat, than from being underweight. Its the good life thats more likely to kill us these days.Worse still, nearly 18 million children under the age of five around the world are estimated to be overweight. Whats going on?We really dont have many excuses for our weight problems. The dangers of the problem have been drilled into us by publichealth campaigns since 2001 and the message is getting through up to a point.In the 1970s, Finland, for example, had the highest rate of heart disease in the world and being overweight was its main cause. Not any more. A publichealth campaign has greatly reduced the number of heart disease deaths by 80 percent over the past three decades.Maybe that explains why the percentage of people in Finland taking diet pills doubled between 2001 and 2020, and doctors even offer surgery of removing fat inside and change the shape of the body. That has become a sort of fashion. No wonder it ranks as the worlds most bodyconscious country.We know what we should be doing to lose weight but actually doing it is another matter. By far the most popular excuse is not taking enough exercise. More than half of us admit we lack willpower. Others blame good food. They say: its just too inviting and it makes them overeat. Still others lay the blame on the Americans, complaining that pounds have piled on thanks to eating too much Americanstyle fast food.Some also blame their parents their genes. But unfortunately, the parents are wronged because theyre normal in shape, or rather slim.Its a similar story around the world, although people are relatively unlikely to have tried to lose weight. Parents are eager to see their kids shape up. Do as I say not as I do.24. Whats the “strange” point mentioned in the first sentence?A. Overweight issue remains unresolved despite WHOs efforts.B. Starvation is taking more peoples lives in the world.C. WHO report shows peoples unawareness of food safety.D. The good life is a greater risk than the bad life.25. Why does the author think that people have no excuse for being overweight?A. A lot of effective diet pills are available.B. Body image has nothing to do with good food.C. They have been made fully aware of its dangers.D. There are too many overweight people in the world.26. The example of Finland is used to illustrate _.A. the cause of heart diseaseB. the effectiveness of a campaignC. there are too many overweight people in the worldD. the fashion of body shaping27. Which would be the best title for the passage?A. Actions or ExcusesB. Overweight or UnderweightC. WHO in a DilemmaD. No Longer Dying of HungerCYou may not have heard of Ashoka，but for the past 27years，this association，founded by Bill Drayton，has fought poverty and sickness，promoted education and encouraged small businessesTo support these worthy causes，Ashoka provides money for the worlds most promisingchangemakersseeking to solve urgent problems and would like to create a world in which every citizen is a changemakerDrayton believes that anyone can become an agent for changeThe important thing is to simply give yourself permissionIf you see a problem that you care about，you can help solve itThe young in particular are willing to accept this concept because at heart every child wants to grow into a happy，healthy，contributing adultIn fact it is many young peoples ambition to set up programmes or businesses that improve social conditionsAn excellent example is an Ashoka project started in 1995 in Dhaka，which handled the rubbish problem facing the city，helped local farmers and provided an income for poor people thereWhen Masqsood and Iftekhar began to study the problem of all the uncollected rubbish that lay in Dhakas streets，Attracting tats and disease，they discovered that 80% of it was natural wasteSo they educated the poor people in the city to compost （把制成堆粪）this wasteThey kmew that they would have a market for the end product because local farmers were struggling with chemical ferntilisers （化肥） which were expensive and had reduced the natural minerals in the soil over the yearsAt first，they were refused，but once they were able to persuade them that there was money to be made，the project took offIn 2020sales were $14，000Drayton is optimistic that in ten years Ashoka will be making really serious，practical progress in bringing about social change by changing the way we look at economic development28Which of the following could be the best title for the passage？ACltungemakers BBusinessmenCSocial Conditions DRubbish Problem29The underlined wordthemin Paragraph 3probably refers to Athe local farmers BMasqsood and IftekharCDrayton and his team Dthe poor people in Dhaka30It can be concluded from the passage that anyone can become a changemaker if he Aconsiders Draytons conceptBgets permission from AshokaCtries to improve social conditionsDis a young，happy and healthy adult31The authors attitude towards Ashokas program can be described asAchanging Bforgiving Ccautious DPositiveDResearchers in China and the United States have developed a new cataract(白内障)treatment with cells that has restored vision in babies in a trial and may eventually be used in adults.The treatment- by doctors and staff members at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and Sichuan and Sun Yat-sen universities in China-was published in March 9 edition of the scientific journal Nature.A cataract is a clouding of the normally clear lens(晶体)of an eye. Typical cataract operation involves the removal of the cloudy lens and the insertion of an artificial one. The new operation has been tested in animals and during a small, human trial. It resulted in fewer complications(并发症)than the current harmful operation, and in regrown lenses with superior visual function in all 12 of the baby cataract patients who received the procedure.A congenital cataract- lens clouding that occurs at birth or shortly after- is important cause of blindness in children. In the new research, Kand Zhang, head of ophthalmic genetics at US San Diegos Shiley Eye Institute, and his colleagues relied on the regrown potential of endogenous(同源的)stem cells.According to Zhang, endogenous stem cells are different from other stem cells that are typically grown in a laboratory, transplanted into a patient, and can have risks of immune（免疫的）rejection, infection or cancers. Zhang told CBS News, “We invented a new operation to make a very small opening at the side of a cataractous lens bag, remove the cataract inside, allow the opening to heal, and promote potential lens stem cells to regrow an entirely new lens with vision.”The human trial involved 12 babies under the age of 2 who were treated with the new method, while 25 babies received thee standard operation care. The latter group experienced a higher incidence of pos- operation danger, early- onset eye high blood pressure and increased lens clouding. The scientists reported fewer complications and faster healing among the 12 babies who has the new procedure.32. What is the text mainly about?A. The concept of the cataractB. A new cataract treatment with stem cellsC. Bad effects of post-operation in the cataractD. The reasons why the cataract comes into being33. Which of the following best describe the new cataract treatment according to the passage?A. Convenient B. ComfortableC. Cheap D. Safe34. What can we learn about the new cataract treatment?A. It has more risksB. It may be used widelyC. It has been put into practice widelyD. It can only restore vision in babies35. What does the underlined word “congenital” in the fourth paragraph mean?A. Born B. StrangeC. Serious D. Dangerous.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。Kids love to go online.

While each wish was as 41 as the child who dreamt it, one that touched me most was Annies wish to meet the Pope(罗马教皇).
