Children born under Aquarius (Jan. 21stFeb. 19th) may be less clever than those born in other seasons. They may also have shorter lives than those born in autumn. Scientists believe many of the differences can be explained by the mothers exposure to sunlight in pregnancy (怀孕). Sunlight helps lead to the production of vitamin D in the body. The lack (缺乏) of vitamin D in the first months of life may have a bad effect on health. Vitamin D is called the sunshine vitamin. It has a good effect on health. A study showed that people born from April to June had slightly shorter lives than those born in October, November or December. Similar studies in the US showed that people born in autumn lived about 160 days longer than those born in spring.Professor Russell Foster said the conclusions were surprising and interesting. He added, These are small effects but they are very, very clear. I am not giving voice to star signs and they are just for fun. But it is true that we are affected by our season of birth.（1）A childs season of birth can affect all the following things EXCEPT _ according to the first two paragraphs. A . his healthB . his heightC . his length of lifeD . his quality of being clever（2）What does the underlined word exposure mean in Chinese? A . 偏爱B . 抗拒C . 过敏D . 暴露（3）What can we know about vitamin D according to the passage? A . It comes from sunlight.B . It helps people live longer.C . Sunlight prevents its production.D .

Children born under Aquarius are cleverer than those born in autumn.C . People born in May will live longer than those born in October.D . Professor Russell Foster is interested in star signs and believes in them.（5）What does the passage mainly tell us? A . People can know the length of life by star sign.B . Women should choose to give birth to children in spring.C . A childs season of birth has an effect on him or her.D . Vitamin D is very important to peoples health.20. （5分）根据短文内容，完成下列小题。 Why do people cry? Scientists say the body produces tears because they need them. One kind of tears is for the eye, the other is for the heart. They both work as cleaners. If something else like dust(灰尘) gets into your eye, tears also come into the eye to clean it out. If you are hurt by something, your strong feelings produce some poisonous chemicals(毒素) in your body, and at the same time, tears come out with them. If these poisonous chemicals are not cleaned out of your body as soon as possible, they will do harm to the heart sooner or later.In the United States men have heart problems more often than women do. Doctors say heart problems have something to do with the pressures(压力) of living and working now. Perhaps men suffer more from these illnesses because they do not cry enough. They need to cry more.In fact, you can find many ways of reducing the pressures to keep fit. Crying is a natural and physical one.（1）How many kinds of tears does the body usually produce? （2）What do tears do when dust gets into your eye? （3）Will the poisonous chemicals in the body do harm to the heart? （4）Why do men suffer more from heart problems than women? （5）What will you do to reduce the pressures of living and working to keep fit? 21. （5分）阅读理解 Dubai is a city of big business, expensive hotels, skyscrapers (摩天大楼), and shopping malls.

Children aged 5 to 12 are advised to sleep 10 to 11 hours every night, but most of them cant sleep that long. A study found that about 41 million American workers got less than six hours of sleep every night. Scientists worry that parents are passing their poor sleeping habits down to their children.In the study, Reut Gruber and some other scientists either added or reduced(减少) one hour of sleep for healthy children aged 7 to 11. They watched the children for five nights. They wanted to know if the amount of sleep can affect(影响) a childs behavior.Before the study began, students were asked to sleep the same amount of hours as usual. Their teachers were asked to record their behavior. After changing the childrens sleep for five nights, the teachers had to record again. According to the two records, scientists found that those who slept one hour less behaved worse than those who slept one hour more. Students with less sleep were more likely(可能的) to feel sad and had more problems paying attention.The scientists chose to study children in their homes instead of in a laboratory, because they wanted to find out how everyday changes might affect childrens behavior at school. In the study, nobody became a talent, and nobody became crazy. But small changes in children can really make a big difference, says Gruber.（1）According to scientists, what may cause children to sleep less? （2）Why did scientists do the new study? （3）Who helped do some records in the new study? （4）Who did the scientists find behaved better in the new study? （5）Was the study done in a laboratory? 23. （10分）阅读下列五段材料，从 AF 选项中找出与它们相对应的标题。其中有一项多余。 A.
