完型填空（共20题；每小题1分，满分20分）the elementary school was a ten-minute walk from my home. since it is not far away, i could go home for lunch and find my mother 36 for me every day. at that time, i did not consider this a luxury（人生难得的享受） 37 today it certainly would be. i took it for granted that mothers were the sandwich-makers, and the 38 monitors（监督者）. so i never 39 that this hardworking and intelligent woman, 40 had had a career before i was born and would return to a career, would spend every lunch hour just with me. when the noon bell rang, i 41 race breathlessly home. my mother would be standing at the top of the stairs, smiling down at me with a look that suggested i was the only 42 thing she had on her mind. for this, i am forever 43 . one lunchtime , when i was in the third grade, will 44 me always. i had been picked to be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had patiently helped me practice my 45 . but no matter how 46 i recited them at home, 47 i stepped on stage, every word 48 from my head. finally, my teacher took me aside. she 49 that she had written a narrators part to the play, and asked me to 50 roles. her words, kindly spoken, 51 hurt me, especially when i saw my part go to another girl. i didnt tell my mother what had happened when i went home that day. but she sensed my 52 , and instead of helping me practice my lines, she asked if i wanted to 53 in the yard. my mother bent down by one of the elm trees, “i think im going to 54 all these dandelions （蒲公英）, ” she said, “from now on, well have only roses in this garden. ” “but i

about the effects of air pollution on the earths natural conditions. some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside. it may be one hundred times worse.indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye pain, headache and other problems. some pollutants （污染物）can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer. most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution.people have paid more attention to the problem now. it is true that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy. to do this they build buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. they also began using man-made building materials. these materials are now known to let out harmful gases.as the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. they discovered a natural pollution control system for buildinggreen plants. scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. they believe that a plants leaves absorb（吸收）or take in the pollutants. in exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and tiny organizations on its roots. scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square meters of space. studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. so the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place.59. generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside because _.aindoor air pollution can often make people seriously illbman-made building materials give off dangerous gasescthere may be more harmful gases outside the buildingsdthe air indoors is polluted, which is very harmful60. some kind of indoor pollution can be found in _.aevery modern housebevery old housecall kinds of housesdall kinds of offices61. the indoor air pollution is caused by _.athe limit of the flow of air between inside and outsidebthe building way that the builders want to save energycthe building things that are made of man-made materialsdthe man-made building materials and the limit of air-flow62. the reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is that _.aplants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoorsbplants may take in more oxygen （氧气）which people needcplants can absorb all kinds of harmful indoor chemicalsdplants can make our houses prettier and more healthycbottled water has become the choice for people who are healthy and thirsty. bottled water is all over the world. but some say the planets health, and peoples health may be suffering from it.the idea that bottled water is safer for humans may not be true. the natural resources defense council of america said, “there is no promise that because water comes out of a bottle, it is cleaner or safer than water from the tap.” another new york city-based action group added that some bottled water is “really just tap water in a bottlesometimes more clean, sometimes not.”it is not proven that bottled water is better than tap water. nick reeves from the chartered institution of water and environmental management said, “the high mineral content (含量) of some bottled water makes them not good for feeding babies and young children.” also, most bottled water doesnt have fluoride (氟化物), which can make teeth stronger. kids are drinking more bottled water and less fluoridated tap water, and some say thats behind the recent rise in bad teeth.storing is another problem. placed near heat, the plastic bottles can produce bad chemicals (化学物质) into the water.according to the environmental protection agency, some 2.7 million tons of plastic are used worldwide to bottle water each year. the plastic can take between 400 and 1,000 years to break down.in terms of energy use, plastic bottles are also not cheap. one report said that if water and soft drink bottlers had used 10 percent recycled materials in their plastic bottles, they would have saved about 72 million gallons of gas.so, if you are worried about the effect of bottled water on the earth, you can take the following steps. drink from your tap. unless your government warns against this, it should be fine. get a container (容器). carry your tap water in a steel or a lined drinking container, and clean it between uses. keep it cool. dont drink from a bottle that has been sitting in the sun, dont store it near chemicals, and dont reuse plastic bottles. choose glass containers over plastic if possible. when finished, recycle!63. what is the main idea of the article?a. drinking tap water is the only choice for people.b. glass containers are better than plastic bottles.c. plastic bottles are harmful to the environment.d. bottled water may not be as good as we think.64. what can we learn about plastic bottles from the article?a. they break down in less than 300 years. b. they can be used for many other things.c. they are a risk to the environment. d. they are cheap to make.65. according to the article, we can know that bottled water is _.a. no problem for the environment b. more expensive than tap waterc. always safer than tap water d. better for babies66. which of the following about tap water is not mentioned in the article?a. there are a lot of problems storing tap water.b. bottled water can be just tap water in a bottle.c. it may be better for your teeth.d. it may contain fluoride. dlife is to be enjoyed. theres no point in giving up something you enjoy unless you get something back thats even better. when people eat more healthfully, exercise, quit smoking, and manage stress better, they find that they feel so much better that it reconstructs the reason for making these changes from fear of dying to joy of living. the latest studies show that when you exercise and eat right：your brain receives more blood flow and oxygen, so you become smarter, think more clearly, have more energy, and need less sleep. two studies showed that just walking for three hours per week for only three months caused so many new neurons (神经细胞) to grow that it actually increased the size of peoples brains!your face receives more blood flow, so your_skin_glows more and wrinkles less. you look younger and more attractive. in contrast, an unhealthy diet, chronic emotional stress and smoking reduce blood flow to your face so you age more quickly. smoking accelerates aging because nicotine causes your arteries (动脉) to narrow down, which decreases blood flow to your face and makes it wrinkle earlier. this is why smokers look years older than they really are.your genes change. in may, a study was published in the proceedings of the national academy of sciences showing that changing your lifestyle changes your genes.your telomeres (染色体端粒) get longer. telomeres are the ends of our chromosomes (染色体) that control how long we live. as telomeres become shorter, then cells age more quickly, thus shortening our lives.besides, one of the most interesting findings in the study was that the mothers awareness of stress was more important than what was really occurring in their lives. the researchers gave the women a questionnaire and asked them to rate on a threepoint scale how stressed they felt each day, and how out of control their lives felt to them. the women who were aware that they were under heavy stress had significantly shortened and damaged telomeres compared with those who felt more relaxed. on the contrary, some of the women who felt relaxed despite raising a disabled child had more normalappearing telomeres.in other words, if you feel stressed, you are stressed; if you feel fine, you are fine.67which of the following are good for lengthening ones life, according to the passage? eat healthy food drink plenty of water take exercise get up early go to sleep early release ones stressabcd68the underlined words “your skin glows” in paragraph 3 are closest in meaning to “_”ayour skin becomes white as there is plenty of sunshinebyour skin becomes smooth as t
