The heroes are the people the nation and especially the young people admire（钦佩） or think highly of. If you get a list of the heroes of a nation, it will tell you the potential of that nation.Today in America, if you ask the high school students to list their heroes, their choices would probably fall into three groups. The first group of heroes would be the rock stars the people connected with rock music. There is no doubt that such people do have talent but one wonders if one should treat rock stars as a model. The rock stars too often are mixed with drugs and their personal life is not all that good. The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles. However, one should find more in a hero than such things as money and good clothes.A second type of hero for the American youth is the sports star. Again you have a person who has a great ability in one area sports. However, too often the personal life of the sports star is a bit of disorder. Too frequently, drugs and drinking are a part of life of the sports star.A third type of hero is the TV or movie star. This person may have lots of acting talent and is quite handsome. However, the personal life of too many actors is quite sad and they should not be held up as a model of young people. Today, the rock star, the athlete and the actor all have bee the models of the youth in America. Really, do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor, a teacher or a scientist? These people are not rich and do not wear fashionable clothes. However, they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone.What is really sad is that the young try to imitate their heroes. They like to wear the same clothes and follow their styles. If the heroes of today for the American young people are limited only to rock stars, athletes and actors, the future does not look too bright.28. What can the last sentence of the first paragraph implies (暗示) ?A. Heroes of a nation will make the nation itself.B. If a nation has a lot of heroes, it will be strong.C. What the people admire will make the future of the nation.D. If you want to be a hero, you must admire the hero29. From the passage, what kind of persons are the heroes the American youth admire?A. those who are perfect in all areasB. those who are talented in some area but lead an improper lifeC. those who are not bright but are good-lookingD. those who are rich but are strict with themselves30. What is the writers attitude towards American youths admiration?A. He goes for it B. He is angry about itC. He thinks badly of it D. He is uninterested in it31. Which of the following can take the place of the underlined word“imitate” in the last paragraph?A. love B. copy C. know D. understand DParents can cut the chances of their children getting fat simply by keeping them longer at table. Just three extra minutes at a family mealtime could help to prevent child obesity. Researchers found that among poor families, the extra minutes at mealtimes made great improvement of a normal weight for the youth. The reasons might lie in munication and the importance of a scheduled mealtime.Dr. Barbara Fiese said, “Children, whose families have a 20-minute meal over four times a week, weigh less than kids who leave the table after 15 to 17 minutes. Over time, those extra minutes per meal add up and bee really powerful.”The researchers studied 200 family mealtimes, testing the effects of mealtime habits of families with children in primary school. They found that families, who said that shared mealtimes were an important part of family life and had special meaning for them, were less likely to have a fat child. Similarly, families who talked more together and municated more positively during the meal, were more likely to have healthy-weight children.Teaching low-ine families how to make full use of family mealtimes was a wise idea. Dr. Fiese said, “This is something we can do and teach.” She added, “Its also important to recognize the increasing differences of families and their living schedules that may need their abilities to plan ahead and set a single time to municate with each other.”Families in poorer US neighborhoods faced a lot of problems, including poor access（机会）to healthy food. But even so, regular high quality family mealtimes made a difference to the childrens weight. Dr. Fiese said, “Three to four extra minutes per meal will make a healthy weight more possible.”32. According to the passage, what can parents do to have healthy-weight children?A. Shorten the mealtime.B. Increase their eating time.C. Make them eat healthy food.D. Provide less food for each meal.33. What does the underlined word “obesity” probably mean?A. Being sick. B. Being thinner.C. Being very fat. D. Being very strong34. What does Dr. Fiese suggest to us?A. Twenty extra minutes per meal causes healthy weight.B. Its better to add three to four extra minutes to each mealtime.C. Four meals a day will make a difference to the childrens weight.D. Parents shouldnt municate with their children during mealtimes.35. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A. Healthy Food Makes Healthy Weight.B. Low-Ine Families Have Thinner Children.C. More Mealtime Talk Causes Unhealthy Weight.D. Extra Mealtime Minutes Help Prevent Child Obesity.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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Last Sunday, it being very hot, Xiao Mings parents decided to buy an air conditioner. The next day in class, Xiao Mings teacher introduced to the whole class the importance of low-carbon economy. Hearing what the teacher said, Xiao Ming was greatly moved . 36 After school, he told what his teacher said to his parents and asked them not to buy an air conditioner but buy an electric fan. They gladly agreed. In my opinion, what Xiao Ming did was pretty good. If we dont live a low-carbon life, the temperature will keep rising, which will influence our weather. 37 Now our government calls on us to live a low-carbon life. 38 Of course, we should make a response to it actively.First, we should realize the importance of living a low-carbon life and try to raise public awareness about it. 39 We can take a bus or walk instead of driving a car or riding a motor.
