novelist of his day. busy as his social life was, he worked on two novels at the same timeoliver twist and pickwick papers. he was particularly proud of pickwick, which was a huge success and was regarded as a comedy (喜剧)masterpiece(杰作). “if i were to live a hundred years and write novels in each, i should never be so proud of any of them as i am proud of pickwick papers,” he said.it has been said of dickens that he grasped（抓住）the imagination of his readers because his imagination grasped himself. the people in his works were so real that they could make him laugh or cry. when writing oliver twist he said that he could not rest until fagin, the wrongdoer(做坏事的人), had been hanged.dickens marriage to catherine hagarth, with whom he had nine children, ended unhappily in 1858. he started to travel about giving readings of his works. his interest in theater gave his novels the qualities that made them suitable for reading aloud on the stage. a tiring travel to the united states

only students grades at school but their growth and development. improper nutrition is one of the causes of childhood obesity. what can you do to help your child avoid childhood obesity? my first piece of advice is to look in your fridge. what are you buying at the grocery store? think about it: if you dont buy junk food or snacks, your kids wont eat them at home. now if youre like me both of your kids are at school, youll know you cant police them every second of the day. this is the time when youll need to talk to your children about their food choices. if you dont know the right food choices, there are so many free resources on-line to guide you. try new things. i was very surprised to find out my 4-year-old daughter likes balsamic vinegar she calls it the black sauce. she likes to have it with tomatoes and cucumbers. you just never know what your kids might like. dont get stressed if you cant always prepare something healthy. you may sometimes leave the house and forget to take something out for dinner, or you are running late and theres no time to cook before you have to take one of the kids somewhere. however, you can still make healthy choices while dining out. many of the fast food restaurants offer fruit and milk instead of soda. i like to buy organic frozen pizzas from the organic market for a quick dinner solution(解决办法). all the ingredients are natural. what i do is to serve the pizza with something raw: lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, or fruit to try to give the kids something healthy with that meal. in closing, take baby steps. dont try to change your familys eating habits in one go, or youll go nuts. 59. this passage is written mainly to us a. explain why todays kids are overweight b. tell us the importance of healthy eating c. give parents some healthy eating tips d. teach parents what to cook at home60. the writer believes it is very important for parents to a. make sure their fridge is full of food. b. teach their children how to eat healthily c. check their childrens grades at school d. provide their children with their favorite food61. paragraph 4 tells parents they should . a. never take their kids to a fast food restaurant b. eat out in a nice restaurant with their kids at times c. choose healthy food while eating out with their kids d. cook healthy food for their kids however busy they are62. according to the passage, it does not seem to be a good idea to . a. tell children what to eat at school b. find free resources on healthy eating online c. put balsamic vinegar on tomatoes or cucumbers d. try to change a familys eating habits in a very short timedshe took up skating at age 85, made her first movie appearance at age 114, and held a concert in the neighborhood on her 121st birthday. when it comes to long life, jeanne calment is the worlds recordholder. she lived to the ripe old age of 122. so is 122 the upper limit to the human life span（寿命）? if scientists come up with some sort of pill or diet that would slow aging, could we possibly make it to 150or beyond? researchers dont entirely agree on the answers. “calment lived to 122, so it wouldnt surprise me if someone alive today reaches 130 or 135, ”says jerry shay at the university of texas. steve austad at the university of texas agrees. “people can live much longer than we think, ”he says. “experts used to say that humans couldnt live past 110. when calment blew past that age, they raised the number to 120. so why cant we go higher? ” the trouble with guessing how old people can live to be is that its all just guessing. “anyone can make up a number, ”says rich miller at the university of michigan. “usually the scientist who picks the highest number gets his name in time magazine. ” wont new anti-aging techniques keep us alive for centuries? any cure, says miller, for aging would probably keep most of us kicking until about 120. researchers are working on treatments that lengthen the life span of mice by 50 percent at most. so, if the average human life span is about 80 years, says miller, “adding another 50 percent would get you to 120. ” so what can we conclude from this little disagreement among the researchers? that life span is flexible（有弹性的）, but there is a limit, says george martin of the university of washington. “we can get flies to live 50 percent longer, ”he says. “but a flys never going to live 150 years. ”of course, if you became a new species （物种）, one that ages at a slower speed, that would be a different story, he adds. does martin really believe that humans could evolve （进化）their way to longer life? “its pretty cool to think about, ”he says with a smile.63. what does the story of jeanne calment prove to us? a. people can live to 122. b. old people are creative. c. women are sporty at 85. d. women live longer than men.64. according to steve austad at the university of texas, _. a. the average human life span could be 110 b. scientists cannot find ways to slow aging c. few people can expect to live to over 150 d. researchers are not sure how long people can live65. who would agree that a scientist will become famous if he makes the wildest guess at longevity?a. jerry shay. b. steve austad c. rich miller d. george martin66. what can we infer from the last three paragraphs? a. most of us could be good at sports even at 120. b. the average human life span cannot be doubled c. scientists believe mice are aging at a slower speed than before. d. new techniques could be used to change flies into a new speciese there is no doubt that to study abroad gives you an excellent opportunity to learn things which are very helpful in your career building. today canada has earned a good name in providing quality education and safe healthy environment for its students. that is why more than 130,000 international students enroll（登记入学） every year in famous canadian universities. it is an ideal education destination and gives students a unique experience of education and its versatile（多样的）
