age of 6 to 11 are overweight When we look at children s lives today in the USA we can see the root origin of the problem sports and foods Young children like sports but they don t have enough around the start of high school That s especially true 用心 爱心 专心 5 for girls Meanwhile to make matters worse schools are becoming much more interested in sports teams So children are not able to get enough exercise just when they need it the most There is also the food problem Children get most of their calories 热量 at restaurants or parties or somewhere else away from home They often drink too many Cokes Parents have a lot of fears about telling a child he needs to lose weight they are afraid it will push a child into an eating disorder Some parents fear that pushing children to lose weight means their children will think they re not good enough or not loved because of their weight Parents need to come to terms with the fact that the family is very important to the children The most useful program for children is called family weight control This is good news Mom and Dad even if they don t have weight problems have to go through the same program as their children and learn how to get some exercise and how to eat healthily 56 Why are American children getting fatter The writer thinks A parents also have weight problem as their children B children drink too many Cokes C schools

twenty seven years I have always known that music 用心 爱心 专心 7 touches the soul It can break through all kinds of barriers 障碍 to reach students in a very special way It can be the means for each child to find their light A few years ago I was blessed with the opportunity to teach pre school students one afternoon a week One of my most memorable students was Vanessa She was five years old had difficulty walking and could not speak We mostly sat on the floor for our music lessons and Vanessa liked to sit on my lap One of her favorite songs was John the Rabbit It was a call and response song where I sang the call and the students clapped two times while singing the repeating phrase Oh yes Vanessa liked to put her hands together with mine and clap with me We performed that song during every class Vanessa and I clapping together She never said or sang a word One day late in the school year when the song was finished Vanessa turned around looked me in the eye clapped her tiny hands two times and said the words Oh yes I opened my mouth and could not speak Through music we had made a connection Several years later I came across Vanessa on the street in town I stopped my car and waved to say hello She waved back with a big smile on her face and then clapped her hands two times mimicking 模仿 the song we had performed in our music class This precious little girl through her connection with music left an impression on me that will last forever Every child has the ability to learn and grow It is up to us educators to discover the way to reach each and every one of our students We all must find each child s light 64 The author thinks music A can make children calm downB can connect heart to heart C is difficult for pre school studentsD is a good means to find a job 65 According to the second paragraph Vanessa A got used to singing songs B was too shy to speak C was the youngest in the classD enjoyed the author s classes 66 When Vanessa spoke the words Oh yes the author felt A surprisedB happyC frightenedD satisfied 67 What can we infer from the last two paragraphs A The author has been in touch with Vanessa for several years B Vanessa became as healthy as other children C The song made a deep impression on Vanessa D Being a good educator became Vanessa s dream D D Not all memories are sweet Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars Often they relive these experiences Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill which help people forget bad memories The pill is designed to be taken immediately 用心 爱心 专心 8 after a frightening experience They hope it might reduce or possibly erase the effect of painful memories In November experts tested a drug on people in the US and France The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced not that the memories are erased The research has caused a great deal of argument Some think itit is a bad idea while others support it Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers troubling memories after wars They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories Some memories can ruin people s lives They come back to you when you don t want to have them in a daydream or nightmare They usually come with very painful emotions said Roger Pitman a professor of psychiatry 精神病学 at Harvard Medical School This could relieve a lot of that suffering But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity They also help us avoid the mistakes in the past All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are I am not sure we d want to wipe those memories out said Rebecca Dresser a medical ethicist 68 What s the main idea of this passage A People often suffer from bad memories B American researchers are trying to develop a pill C Forget bad memories and be happy D The research has caused a heated argument 69 The underlined word it in Paragraph 4 refers to A the new drugB the research into the drug C the bad memoryD the chemical in the drug 70 Which of the following is NOT the opinion of the opponents 反对者 A Our memories give us our identity B The memories help human avoid mistakes of the past C The drug should be used in only very serious cases D People may not be sure whether they want to wipe the memories out 第二节 共 5 小题 每小题 2 分 满分 10 分 根据短文内容 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项 选项中有两项为多余选项 How to Calm Your Teen s Nerves before an Exam Stress is a feeling of physical mental of emotional
