reading good stories can help you solve some problems in your own life. besides, reading 51 sets a good example to younger generations. sadly, people nowadays seem to have totally lost interest in this activity. children are busy with computer games, 52 adults use their cell phones or computers to search for information. 53 seems that people have forgotten 54 importance of reading. anybody can use the internet to look for information, but the sources are 55 as reliable as a book.to open a book is always beneficial! dont spend all your spare time on the computer screen or cell phones.试题分析：文章介绍阅读的好处和对我们的重要性，但是现在读书的人越来越少，人们宁愿借助于手机和part reading comprehension (30 marks)directions: read the following three passages. each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. for each of them there are four choices marked a, b, c and d. choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.ait is generally believed that we are getting cleaned when we step under a shower. we are, but were also giving a home to lots of tiny little creatures we didnt even know about. a showerhead carries thousands of bacteria called mycobacteriumthese can cause problems like coughs and tiredness, and a general feeling of poorliness (身体不舒服). when you turn on the water, the bacteria go from the showerhead onto and into your body. this is a finding of norman r. pace and his team at the university of colorado, in the us. the scientists investigated bacteria in all kinds of human environment, including showerspaces team looked at 45 showerheads in nine american cities. they discovered that 30 percent of them had large amounts of flying mycobacterium. but pace said that they pose few threats to the healthonly those with a weak immune system might need to worryhe told the new york times that the bacteria are not as unpleasant as might be thoughthe said that having a shower is no more dangerous than anything else we do in the morningbut for those who feel sick about the idea of all those microorganisms (微生物), he had some advice. let the water run for 30 seconds before getting into the shower. why? the number of bacteria is smaller than that when the water is just turned on. if that seems like a waste of water, he added that you could also change your showerhead every few months. however, pace had good news too. he has also been testing the air in us subways. apart from iron particles (粒子), which are ground off the track by the wheels of trains, subway air is fresh. the reason is that a trains movement pumps fresh outdoor air into the tunnels. pace explained that he wanted to understand the natural microbial environments of public places. this kind of knowledge might help discover the microbes to be used in a bioterrorist (生物恐怖分子) attack.【小题1】 from the finding of norman r. pace, after taking a shower, we might cough or feel tired because . a. its easy to get a cold when taking a bathb. the showerhead carries many bacteria causing illness c. we dont get cleaned while showeringd. we dont get a weak immune system【小题2】according to the passage, which of the following is true? a. hot water could kill most of bacteria in showerheads. b. of 45 showerheads surveyed in nine cities, 30 carried large amounts of mycobacterium. c. changing showerheads is the only way to avoid microorganisms. d. shower water contains much less bacteria after being left to run for 30 seconds. 【小题3】we can learn from the third paragraph that . a. having a shower in the morning is more dangerous than at other timeb. the bacteria always threat peoples health c. there is no reason to fear microorganisms for people with strong immune systemd. it is better to do some exercise in the morning than have a shower【小题4】the underlined word “pose” in the third paragraph probably means “_” a. cause b. avoid c. describe d. promise【小题5】what contributes to fresh air in us subways? a.the trains movement. b. iron particles c. train wheels. d. air conditioners on the trains【答案】【小题1】b【小题2】d【小题3】c【小题4】a【小题5】a【解析】试题分析：文章介绍norman r. pace和他的团队发现的结果，大多数淋浴头含有致病的细菌，但是这不会bthe younger daughter of former new york mayor richard white

when humans and cats set up their close relationship. the earliest evidence for humancat interaction dates back to prehistoric cyprus（史前塞浦路斯）, where the remains of a wild cat and a human dated 9,500 years old were found buried together. a new study in the proceedings of the national academy of sciences has confirmed the first direct evidence of a humandomestic cat relationship among chinese farmers 5,300 years ago. researchers studied the bones of cats, dogs, deer and other animals unearthed in an excavation (挖掘) near a village in central china. by using some ways, scientists showed that the cats were living on a mostly millet(黍)based diet, just like the domesticated dogs and pigs from the site. the most reasonable explanation for a high consumption of milletbased food is that the cats had formed a stable and mutual relationship with humans and could easily feed on rodents (啮齿动物) around human villages, find leftover food or even have been fed by people intentionally, said hu yaowu from the chinese academy of sciences in beijing, whose research focuses on the relationship between humans and domesticated animals.it is very interesting for us to find the consumption of millet-based foods by the cats, since this kind of evidence had long been missing.” hu explains. since cats usually eat meat, such a diet would be unexpected, unless the cats were being fed by people, the study argues. the researchers also found that one of the cats survived to reach old age, implying that it had a safe place to live and enough to eat. why the farmers wanted to keep cats nearby or make them pets could be an
