had only just attended one first aid class the day before when she found herself needing to use the skills on her three years old daughter tilly.sonya, who also has son emmen, six, attended the first aid course at lune park childrens centre in lancaster. then she was faced with every parents worst nightmare when tilly went blue in the face and stopped breathing. but thanks to her newly acquired skills, sonya saved tillys life.sonya said: “tilly was playing with her brother and they were fighting over a toy. emmen won the fight. tilly fell backwards and her head was hit. she was face down and

learned the day before which were so fresh in my mind. i began doing mouth-to-mouth and chest compressions (胸外按压). it probably took about a minute before tilly started breathing again, but to me it felt like a lifetime.”after getting tilly breathing again, sonya called an ambulance and the doctors came. since then, tilly has been diagnosed (诊断) with reflex anoxic seizure (反射缺氧发作). sonya said: “the seizure can happen when theres any unexpected pain, fear or fright. it is just so lucky that the day before it happened, i had been practising first aid.”the empowering parents first aid course

looked like a large bag，musicians often called him pops，as a sign of respect for his influence on the world of music.born in 1901 in new orleans，he grew up poor，but lived among great musicians. jazz was invented in the city a few years before his birth. armstrong often said，“jazz and i grew up together.”armstrong showed a great talent for music when he was taught to play the cornet (短号) at a boys home. in his late teens，armstrong began to live the life of a musician. he played in parades，clubs，and on the steamboats that traveled on the mississippi river. at that time，new orleans was famous for the new music of jazz and was home to many great musicians. armstrong learned from the older musicians and soon became respected as their equal.in 1922 he went to chicago. there，the tale of louis armstrong begins. from then until the end of his life，armstrong was celebrated and loved wherever he went. armstrong had no equal when it came to playing the american popular song.his cornet playing had a deep humanity (仁爱) and warmth that caused many listeners to say，“listening to pops just makes you feel good all over.” he was the father of the jazz style and also one of the best known and most admired people in the world. his death，on july 6,1971，was headline news around the world.60armstrong was called pops because he _.alooked like a musician bwas a musician of much influencecshowed an interest in music dtraveled to play modern music61the third paragraph is developed _.aby space bby examples cby time dby comparison62which statement about armstrong is true?ahis tale begins in new orleans. bhe was born before jazz was invented.chis music was popular with his listeners. dhe learned popular music at a boys home.63which would be the best title for the text?athe invention of the jazz music bthe father of the jazz stylecthe making of a musician dthe spread of popular musiccmany years ago，when i was fresh out of school and working in denver，i was driving to my parents home in missouri for christmas. i stopped at a gas station(加油站)about 50 miles from oklahoma city，where i was planning to stop and visit a friend. while i was standing in line at the cash register(收款台)，i said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.i took off，but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. i stopped and wondered what i should do. a car pulled up behind me. it was the couple i had spoken to at the gas station. they said they would take me to my friends. we chatted on the way into the city，and when i got out of the car，the husband gave me his business card.i wrote him and his wife a thank you note for helping me. soon afterward，i received a christmas present from them. their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.years later，i drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. in late afternoon i returned to my car and found that id left the lights on all day，and the battery(电池) was dead. then i noticed that the friendly ford dealershipa shop selling cars was right next door. i walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.“just how friendly is friendly ford？”i asked and explained my trouble. they quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. they would accept no payment，so when i got home，i wrote them a note to say thanks. i received a letter back from one of the salesmen. no one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you，and it meant a lot，he said.“thank you”two powerful words. theyre easy to say and mean so much.64the author planned to stop at oklahoma city _.ato visit a friend bto see his parentscto pay at the cash register dto have more gas for his car65the underlined words “took off” underlined in paragraph 2 mean “_”aturned off bmoved

distance67by telling his own experiences，the author tries to show _.ahow to write a thank you letter bhow to deal with car problemscthe kind heartedness of older people dthe importance of expressing thanksda new study suggests that the way to weight loss may be clear. a couple of glasses of water before meals help dieters lose about 5 pounds more than those who do not drink water. while drinking water before a meal may fill a person up，the contents of their meal are important as well. should a person be eating a lowfat diet or a low carbohydrate (低糖的) diet? or does it matter at all?recent research suggests that one diet isnt any better than the other. a few weeks before the water study，another concluded that low fat and low carbohydrate diets tied in weight loss. while the low carbohydrate dieters did show a slight increase in good cholesterol (胆固醇) and a reduction in blood pressure，there was not much difference in the dieters weight loss. the point here is that the person had to stick to the diet. what helps a person see a diet through? it could be body type.a study published in the journal of the american medical association，as reported by time magazine，found that body shape is the key to which diet a person will be able to stick with. apples are people who carry most of their weight above the belt，while pears carry their weight around their hips (臀部)apple types were more likely to be high insulin secretors (高胰岛素分泌者) who respond more strongly to carbohydrates in their bodies. they lost the most weight on a low carbohydrate diet. pears were low insulin secretors who lost the same amount of weight on both diets. unstable (不稳定的) insulin levels can create stronger hunger senses，causing the apple types to go off their diet plans.all of these studies again come down to choosing the diet that helps you eat less. the body type diet does make some sense as men are more likely to be apple types，with larger stomachs，and tend to do well on higher protein diets，while women，who tend to carry weight around their hips，find themselves drawn to the low fat diets. the reality is if a diet is failing you try another one. a plan you cant，or wont，stick to will never work，no matter what the research says.68if you want to lose weight but dont know what diet suits you，you can always _.adrink a few cups of water after each meal bdrink a few cups of water before each mealceat plenty of pears deat plenty of apples69compared with a low carbohydrate dieter，a low fat dieter may _.alose weight faster bput on weight fasterchave less good cholesterol dhave a lower blood pressure70which of the following statements is true according to the passage?awomen on high protein diets usually do well in weight loss.bmen on high carbohydrate diets usually do well in weight loss.cmen usually like eating apples while women mostly enjoy pears.dwhether a person can stick with a diet depends largely on his or her body shape.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
