选出最佳选项 并在答题 卡上将该项涂黑 A A It seems that politicians around the world are thinking about the health of their countries While in China Chen Zhu has announced his plans for a universal health service and reform across health services Gordon Brown the UK Prime Minister has also announced he is planning to make some changes in our health service The crux of Mr Brown s proposals are related to giving the NHS National Health Service a greater focus on prevention rather than just curing patients He is planning to introduce increased screening for common diseases such as heart disease strokes and cancer for example breast cancer In Britain there are 200 000 deaths a year from heart attacks and strokes many of which might have been avoided if the condition had been known about Initially the diagnostic 诊断的 tests will be available for those who are vulnerable or most likely to have the disease One example is a plan to offer all men over 65 an ultrasound test to check for problems with the main artery 动脉 a condition which kills 3 000 men a year The opposition have criticized Mr Brown s proposals saying that they are just a trick and claiming that there is no proper timetable for the changes They also say that Mr Brown is reducing the money available for the treatment of certain conditions while putting more money towards testing for them The NHS was founded in 1948 and is paid for by taxation The idea is that the rich pay more towards the health service than the poor However in recent years there has been a great increase in the use of private healthcare because it s much quicker NHS waiting lists for operations can be very long so many people who can afford it choose to pay for medical care themselves 56 The underlined word vulnerable in the fourth paragraph probably means A weak B sick C wounded D old 57 All the following statements are true EXCEPT that A some people are against the reform of the healthcare B all people should pay for their healthcare at the NHS C the writer is likely to come from Britain D more money will be spent on testing people than before 58 Which of the following is the reason for the increasing private healthcare 6 A People are paying more attention to their own health B People are well off enough to pay their healthcare C It s not so convenient for people to go the NHS for their healthcare D The NHS was not available for most of the people 59 According to the passage the purpose of the health reform plan in the UK is to A fight against the opposition in the UK B encourage more private healthcare C deal with the main artery problems D focus on the prevention rather than on curing the patient B B The NBA s version of the Ming Dynasty is done After helping professional basketball gain a foothold in the world s most populous market Chinese star Yao Ming has retired Yao made it official Wednesday telling a news conference that a series of foot and leg injuries forced him to end his playing career at the age of 30 I will formally end my career said Yao who became a household name in China before starting his NBA career with the Houston Rockets in 2002 Yao played eight seasons in the NBA Today is an important day for me and holds a special meaning for both my basketball career and my future Yao said I had to leave the court since I suffered a stress fracture 断裂 in my left foot for the third time at the end of last year My past six months were a painful wait I have been thinking about my future over and over Today I am announcing a personal decision ending my career as a basketball player and officially retire But one door is closing and another one is opening Yao said he would return to work with his former Chinese team the Shanghai Sharks with the possibility of becoming general manager He already owns the club and wants to contribute more My playing career started with the club I hope I can do something for it Yao said He later appeared with his family on the stage to the applause and cheers of the crowd He thanked a lot of people his family former coaches even players like Shaquille O Neal for making me a better player I will be always with you Thank you Rockets general manager Daryl Morey was among those attending the farewell 告别 conference Wednesday Morey made the long trip from Houston Morey said 20 hours on planes was tiring but he would be sorry if he wasn t here It s a big moment Morey added Yao had a sense of humor a great attitude and sense of responsibility I hope we can continue his culture in the NBA Yao had played six years with the Chinese national team before joining the Rockets and was already a star in his home country He carried the Olympic torch through Tiananmen Square and his country s flag during the opening 第 5 页 共 10 页 第 6 页 共 10 页 共 7 ceremonies

Morey is the general manager of Rockets B Daryl Morey was very tired at the conference C Daryl Morey thought highly of Yao Ming D The conference was a big moment of the year C C What do working mothers worry about the most It s the kids of course Whatever the setting the question I get asked the most is Will the kids be alright It s made me realize that we tend to look at the glass half empty rather than half filled when it comes to blending work and family We forget about all the benefits that we bring to our children when we work and I m not talking about the obvious financial benefits although these of course shouldn t be taken for granted About a year ago I remember getting a call from the school just as I was pulling up to the house after having driven 20 minutes to the school and 20 minutes back Mrs Brown Quinn your son asked us to call He forgot his sports clothes Can you come back to the school and drop them off I was exasperated 恼火 I had already spent 40 minutes in aggressive weekday morning traffic I replied Sorry I m working at the moment I m afraid my son needs to learn to be organized Being a good parent requires delivering tough love sometimes Kids need to learn to be independent It can be a cruel and competitive world out there Pursuing interests including business outside of your kids can give you that extra perspective that you need not overwhelm your kids with attention This benefit of working isn t always immediately evident It wasn t until our daughter went away to college that she realized why we had raised her in the way that we did Mom I can t believe how so many of my friends struggle to manage things on their own They are constantly calling their parents for help You ll love that moment After all those years of complaining about why you don t do this or why you don t give them that your kids realize that tough love has made them better people 8 64 The author refused to drop off her son s sports clothes because A she was caught in heavy trafficB she was busy working C she thought her son was lyingD she wanted her son to be organized 65 How can kids become better people according to the author A By giving them all your attention B By giving them freedom to do things on their own C By showing them your deep love D By giving them tough love 66 The daughter s attitude towards the author is when she grows up A complaining B caringC understandingD disappointed 67 The purpose of the author is to A analyze a special benefit of working B advise us to blend work and family C argue for working mothers D describe her own experience in raising children D D When I was a boy my mom had a little picture of the famous Indian politician Gandhi along with words from him on the refrigerator It said No matter how insignificant 无足轻重的 what you do may seem it is important that you do it As a child I was raised to believe that and to this day I do my best to live it When I was about 12 I started sending money every month to charities I learned then that you find one thing that matters to you and it changes your whole attitude Here s something that matters to me right now Every 15 seconds a child dies because of a lack of clean water A billion people on our planet don t have a clean drink of water This doesn t happen in the U S but in Africa it s common And the most shocking thing about it is that it takes so little to change it Just 25 will give someone clean water for life I ve taken a lot of trips in the last few years to places like Africa India and Haiti to try to learn what conditions are like It s really powerful when you get to meet the people and shake their hands and listen to their stories There s so much I don t know There s so much need it s so hard to decide where to give For me I look at the organizations that are actually doing the work for charity I co founded water org which focuses on clean water I was in Ethiopia earlier this year and I watched children taking very dirty water out of a hand dug well and putting it in bottles to take to school The water was so dirty it looked like chocolate milk I wanted to knock it out of their hands and say Don t drink that it could kill you But drinking nothing at all will kill them even faster Parents in these areas lose children every year to diseases that could be completely prevented if they had access to clean water 68 We can infer from the first paragraph that A the author s mother considered Gandhi the greatest leader 第 7 页 共 10 页 第 8 页 共 10 页 共 9 B the author s mother wanted him to be someone like Gandhi C the author had the same life experience as Gandhi D the author was greatly influenced by Gandhi s words 69 Why did the author go to visit Africa A To learn about the poor conditions there B To give money to the poor people C To give treatment to people there D To collect moving stories 70 The author may agree that A clean water can t remove dangerous diseases B it s not difficult to help people get access to clean water C one third of people in the world lack clean water D lack of clean water is the main cause of children s deaths E E I have met many people but I will always remember my teacher Mrs Lawrence 71 She was always nice and helpful to the children who were hard to work with She took every chance to praise the children who were not so good in class I wish I could have the same great character as her I will always remember the great moments when we were together 72 I used to love to hear all the stories and things about her I also like her creativity We didn t like boring books music pictures and so on
