study，published in the archives of dermatology, shows that smoking affects the skin all over the bodyeven the skin protected from the sun. we examined non-facial skin that was protected from the sun, and found that the total number of packs of cigarettes smoked per day and the total years a person has smoked were linked with the amount of skin damage a person experienced. dr. yolanda helfrich of the university of michigan,who led the study, said in a statement. in participants older than 65 years, smokers had significantly more fine wrinkling than nonsmokers. similar findings were seen in participants aged from 45 to 65 years, helfrichs team added in their report. the researchers tested 82 people, smokers and nonsmokers, taking pictures of the inner fight alms. they ranged in age from 22 to 9l and half were smokers. independent judges decided how wrinkled each persons skin was. when skin is exposed to sunlight, notably the face, it becomes coarse. wrinkled and discolored with a pale yellow tint. helfrichs team wrote. several previous studies have found that cigarette smoking contributes to premature(过早的)skin aging as measured by facial wrinkles, the study said, but little has been done to measure the aging of skin not exposed to light. the report did not discuss the mechanism involved but previous research has found that cigarette smoke, among other things, causes blood vessels(血管)beneath the skin to constrict(紧缩), reducing blood supply to the skin. smoking can also damage the connective tissue that supports both the skin and the internal organs.(1)when your

(1)a细节理解题。根据倒数第四段中的内容可知当皮肤长时间暴露在阳光下时，皮肤不会变得“柔韧”。(2)b细节理解题。文章中没有提到皮肤起皱纹的程度与皮肤的种类和特征有关。(3)a细节理解题。倒数第三段提到抽烟会让皮肤过早衰老，下一段中提到抽烟使皮肤下的血管紧缩，减少血液对皮肤的供应，由此可知抽烟导致皮肤衰老的主要原因是降低了血液对皮肤的供应量。(4)c 写作目的题。文章阐述了吸烟的种种危害，触目惊心，目的显然是警告人们不要再抽烟了。*结束（济南市2011届高三教学质量调研） the website farmersonly. com calls itself an online dating and friendship finder. the idea started in the mind of a man, jerry miller in ohio. he wondered how farmers could meet new people who understand the life of a farmer. jerry miller is not a farmer but he represents a lot of farmers. as he tells it,the idea for the site was planted when a farmer told him one day that she was recently divorced and would like to date. but someone would invite her to meet for coffee at nine oclock at night, when she had to start her day at five the next morning. so, in 2005, jerry miller launched his website. you dont have to be a farmer to be on farmersonly. com. but you do have to have the good old-fashioned traditional values of americas heartland. you also have to live in the united states or canada to be a member of the site. some services are free, but a full membership costs fifty dollars for a year. as of last week the sire listed more than 58,000 members. many of them are farmers in the united states. others are students or workers involved in some way with agriculture. jerry miller tells us about thirty marriages in the last year have resulted from his website. some farmers have also found love through a group,singles in agriculture,which was formed as a nonprofit organization in 1986.it organizes gatherings that usually end with a dance, but is not a dating service. the purpose is to support educational and social activities that offer people a chance for friendship. its website,,says there are more than

miller是在听完一位女性农民的苦衷后才创办了这个网站，以便为农民网上约会和交友提供方便，由此可推断他创办网站的目的是帮助农民。(2)c句意理解题。有人邀请她在晚上九点喝咖啡，可是她必须在第二天早上五点起床，由此可推断乡村生活没有被很好地理解。(3)a正误判断题。根据最后一段第句中的a nonprofit organization可知这是一个非营利性机构，它创办的网站提供的是免费服务。(4)b作者意图题。作者只是客观地介绍了jerry miller创办的网站，顺便提及了另外一个网站，并没有发表自己的观点，所以作者意在对两个网站进行介绍。(5)d推理判断题。由文中介绍的这两个关于农民社交的网站可推知因特网有助于提高农民的社交生活。*结束 the first field season is now over at the hut village of the workmen who built the tombs in the valley of the kings. however，the archaeologists working on the excavation(挖掘)have found that they still have a great deal to do. the sun, the wind and tourists have left their mark on the village, originally discovered by bernard bruyhre in 1935“from our modern perspective，it is upsetting to see how the village was first excavated and then left to be destroyed. passers-by have used the huts as rubbish dumps and restrooms,”says jaana toivariviitala, a teacher at the university of helsinki.“fortunately, while we still have some surface cleaning to do, conservation are off to a good start.”the hut village offers rare insight into everyday life in ancient egypt.“in the early twentieth century，archaeologists were only interested in the tombs of kings. the workmens huts they discovered were seen as a necessary evil in the quest for the real treasures.” “now several international research groups on different excavations are examining everyday life and work in the valley of the kings. this seems to be a trend in archaeology right now.” toivari-viitala says her research group wants to find out why the hut village was built on the slope of a mountain，halfway between the construction site and deir-el-medina. they are also interested in how many workers lived in the village at a time, when they lived there, and what their role was in the construction work.“comparing the names found in the village and in deir-el-medina provides useful informationjudging from the construction methods，settlement in the village can be divided into two separate periods: the initial settlement and a later one.”for the time being，much is up to guessing, but toivari-viitala believes that the coming four field seasons, three months each, will see results.“the working conditions are not nearly as difficult as i thought they would be. the cool winds in the mountains nicely alleviate the heat.”the research group working on the “workmens huts in the theban mountains” project is planning to return to the valley of the kings in october.13. what does the passage mainly talk about? _a. the hut village in the

true of the hut village according to the passage? _a. it has been damaged a lot. b. it can tell us something about ancient egypt.c. it has attracted archaeologists attention. d. it has a lot of real treasures somewhere in it.15. whats the new trend in archaeology right now according to toivari-viitala?a. being interested in the tombs of kingsb. examining everyday life and work in the valley of the kings.c. using the huts as rubbish dumps and restroomsd. guessing what the result will be beforehand16. we can infer from the passage that_.a. people know little about the hut village by now b.

（d篇）adba*结束 i shall never forget the night，a few years ago，when marion jdouglas was a student in one of my adulteducation classes. he told us how tragedy had struck at his home，not once，but twice. the first time he had lost his fiveyearold daughter. he and his wife thought they couldnt bear that first loss；but，as he said，“ten months later，god gave us another little girl and she died in five days.”this double bereavement was almost too much to bear. “i couldnt take it，” this father told us，“i couldnt sleep，eat，rest or relax. my nerves were entirely shaken and my confidence gone. ”at last he went to doctors；one recommended sleeping pills and another recommended a trip，but neither helped. he said，“my body felt as if it was surrounded in a vice (大钳子)，and the jaws of the vice were being drawn tighter and tighter.” the tension of grief (悲伤)if you have ever been paralyzed (使瘫痪) by sorrow，you know what he meant.“but thank god，i had one child lefta fouryearold son. he gave me the solution to my problem. one afternoon as i sat around feeling sorry for myself，he asked，daddy，will you build a boat for me？ i was in no mood to build a boat；in fact，i was in no mood to do anything. but my son is a persistent little fellow！i had to give in. building that toy boat took me about three hours. by the time it was finished，i realized that those three hours spent building that boat were first hours of mental relaxation and peace that i had had in months！i realized that it is difficult to worry while you are busy doing something that requires planning and thinking. in my case，building the boat had knocked worry out of the ring. so i determined to keep busy.”“the following night，i made a list of jobs that ought to be done. scores of items needed to be repaired. amazingly，i had made a list of 242 items that needed attention. during the last two years i have completed most of them. i am busy so that i have no time for worry.”no time for worry
