Put on a happy face.Compared to unhappy people, those who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds, according to a new study. Its possible that being happy helps the body fight illnesses, say the researchers from New York University.It seems that positive feelings may reduce the danger of illness, said the studys chief researcher Sheldon Cohen.In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were cheerful and lively caught coughs and colds less often. People who showed feelings were also less likely to tell their doctors that they felt ill.In thisstudy, Cohens interviewed 193 adults every day for two weeks. During the interviews, the people were given colds by doctors and had to stay alone in a room for six days.The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get ill. But for people who said they felt happy during the research period, their illness are less serious and lasted for a shorter time.Cohen believes that when people experience positive feelings, their body may produce a chemical that helps fight illness and disease. So if you are worried about your health, look on the bright side more often.（1）Which of the following was NOT a part of the studyA . People talked about their feelings every day.B . People were kept alone for six days.C . People were given colds by doctors.D . People were made to feel unhappy.（2）What did the study find?A . People who felt happy never got ill.B . Peoples feelings didnt influence their health.C . People with good feelings became ill more easily.D . People with positive feelings had less serious illnesses.（3）According to Cohen, which of the following may help fight illness?A . Eating.B . Crying.C . Laughing.D . Sleeping.（4）This passage is a/an.A . advertisementB . newspaper reportC . storyD . scientists diary（5）What is the best title for this passage?A . Smiles can fight coldsB . Cause of colds foundC . The danger of coldsD . How people get sick10. （6分）阅读理解 Many environmental groups are warning that oceans of the world are in great danger. In the past 50 years, the number of water with zero oxygen(氧气) in the open ocean has increased more than four times. In the near coast water bodies, including the river mouth and seas, low-oxygen areas have increased more than 10 times since 1950.Scientists discover that oxygen continues dropping ever outside these zones as the Earth warms. To stop the drop, the world needs to control in both climate change and nutrient(养分) pollution.Oxygen is a must to life in the oceans. The drop in ocean oxygen is among the most serious effects of human activities on the Earths environment.This is the first time for the scientists to take such a deep look at the causes, results and solutions to low oxygen worldwide, in both the open ocean and the near coast waters. About half of the oxygen on Earth comes from the ocean. However, mixed effects of nutrient loading and climate change are greatly increasing the number and size of dead zones in the open ocean and the near coast waters, where oxygen is too low to support most sea life.In the areas traditionally called dead zones, like those in Chesapeake Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, oxygen drops to levels so low that many animals have trouble in breathing and die. As fishes run away from these zones, their living areas become smaller and smaller. But the problem goes far beyond dead zones. Even smaller oxygen drops can hold up the growth in animals and lead to disease or even death. Low oxygen also can cause the release of dangerous chemicals. Although a few animals can grow well in dead zones, overall biodiversity(多样性)falls.（1）How to stop the drop of ocean oxygen in the article? A . By controlling in both climate change and nutrient pollution around the world.B . By taking a deep look at the causes, results and solutions to low oxygen worldwide.C . By running away from these zones, for the living areas become smaller and smaller.D . By cutting down the number of animals in the oceans.（2）Why are these waters called dead zones from the article? A . Because the oxygen in these areas is too low for most sea life to live.B . Because nutrient loading and climate change are greatly increasing.C . Because there are no animals living in these areas.D . Because low oxygen also can cause the release of dangerous chemicals.（3）Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article? A . Only a few animals living in the sea need oxygen.B . Climate change can help cut down the dead zones.C . Fishes grow faster and better in low oxygen areas.D . Human activities have many serious effects on ocean environment.11. （10分） Is there intelligent (有智力的) life on other planets? For years, scientists said “no.” or “we dont know.” But today this is changing. Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett are astronomers(天文学家). They believe intelligent life exists (存在) somewhere in the universe. They also think we sill soon contact these beings(人；生物).Why do Shostak and Barnett think intelligent life exists on other planets? The first reason is time. Scientists believe the universe is about 12 billion years old. “This is long enough for other planets to have intelligent life,” say Shostak and Barnett. The second reason is sizethe universe is huge. “Tools like the Hubble Telescope(哈勃望远镜) have shown that there are at least 100 billion galaxies,” says Shostak. “And our galaxy, the Milky Way, has at least 100 billion stars. Some planets going around these stars might be similar to Earth.”In the past, it was hard to look for signs of intelligent life in the universe. But now, powerful telescopes(高倍望远镜) allow scientists to discover smaller planetsthe size of Mars or Earthin other solar systems. These planets might have intelligent life.Have beings from space already visited Earth? “Probably not,” says Shostak. “Its a long way away. However, intelligent beings may contact us in other way, such as radio signals(信号). In fact, they may be trying to communicate with us now, but we dont have the right tools to receive their messages. However, this is changing. By 2025, we could make contact with other life forms in our universe and we might help each other.”（1）Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett are _.A . astronomersB . farmersC . singersD . drivers（2）What is the best title for Paragraph 2?A . The Age and Size of EarthB . Our Galaxy: The Milky WayC . Why Intelligent Life Might ExistD . Earth: The Only Planet with Intelligent Life（3）Why was it hard to look for signs of intelligent life in the universe in the past?A . There were not any smaller planetsB . There were not any powerful telescopesC . The astronomers were not interested in themD . The Milky Way didnt exist at that time,（4）Why havent beings from space visited us yet according to Shostak?A . Theyre afraid of us.B . Its a long way away.C . They dont want to see usD . They dont know how to use radio signals.（5）What does the underlined phrase “life forms” in the last paragraph mean?A . MessagesB . ToolsC . Intelligent beingsD . Radio signals12. （5分）阅读下面的短文，然后根据文章内容回答问题。I come from Singapore. Singapore is a lovely country. It is small in size, but large in fun.
