social 5 life was he worked on two novels at the same time Oliver Twist and Pickwick Papers He was particularly proud of Pickwick which was a huge success and was regarded as a comedy 喜剧 masterpiece 杰作 If I were to live a hundred years and write novels in each I should never be so proud of any of them as I am proud of Pickwick Papers he said It has been said of Dickens that he grasped 抓住 the imagination of his readers because his imagination grasped himself The people in his works were so real that they could make him laugh or cry When writing Oliver Twist he said that he could not rest until Fagin the wrongdoer 做坏事的人 had been hanged Dickens marriage to Catherine Hagarth with whom he had nine children ended unhappily in 1858 He started to travel about giving readings of his works His

little to do with his hard work D Dickens had wished to die in the course of his work C C Nutrition influences not only students grades at school but their growth and development Improper nutrition is one of the causes of childhood obesity What can you do to help your child avoid childhood obesity My first piece of advice is to look in your fridge What are you buying at the grocery store Think about it if you don t buy junk food or snacks your kids won t eat them at home Now if you re like me both of your kids are at school you ll know you can t police them every second of the day This is the time when you ll need to talk to your children about their food choices If you don t know the right food choices there are so many free resources on line to guide you Try new things I was very surprised to find out my 4 year old daughter likes balsamic vinegar she calls it the black sauce She likes to have it with tomatoes and cucumbers You just never know what your kids might like Don t get stressed if you can t always prepare something healthy You may sometimes leave the house and forget to take something out for dinner or you are running late and there s no time to cook before you have to take one of the 6 kids somewhere However you can still make healthy choices while dining out Many of the fast food restaurants offer fruit and milk instead of soda I like to buy organic frozen pizzas from the organic market for a quick dinner solution 解决办法 All the ingredients are natural What I do is to serve the pizza with something raw lettuce cucumbers tomatoes or fruit to try to give the kids something healthy with that meal In closing take baby steps Don t try to change your family s eating habits in one go or you ll go nuts 59 This passage is written mainly to us A explain why today s kids are overweight B tell us the importance of healthy eating C give parents some healthy eating tips D teach parents what to cook at home 60 The writer believes it is very important for parents to A make sure their fridge is full of food B teach their children how to eat healthily C check their children s grades at school D provide their children with their favorite food 61 Paragraph 4 tells parents they should A never take their kids to a fast food restaurant B eat out in a nice restaurant with their kids at times C choose healthy food while eating out with their kids D cook healthy food for their kids however busy they are 62 According to the passage it does NOT seem to be a good idea to A tell children what to eat at school B find free resources on healthy eating online C put balsamic vinegar on tomatoes or cucumbers D try to change a family s eating habits in a very short time D D She took up skating at age 85 made her first movie appearance at age 114 and held a concert in the neighborhood on her 121st birthday When it comes to long life Jeanne Calment is the world s recordholder She lived to the ripe old age of 122 So is 122 the upper limit to the human life span 寿命 If scientists come up with some sort of pill or diet that would slow aging could we possibly make it to 150 or beyond Researchers don t entirely agree on the answers Calment lived to 122 so it wouldn t surprise me if someone alive today reaches 130 or 135 says Jerry Shay at the University of Texas Steve Austad at the University of Texas agrees People can live much longer than we think he says Experts used to say that humans couldn t live past 110 When Calment blew past that age they raised the number to 120 So why can t we go higher The trouble with guessing how old people can live to be is that it s all just guessing Anyone can make up a number says Rich Miller at the University of Michigan Usually the scientist who picks the highest number gets his name in Time magazine Won t new anti aging techniques keep us alive for centuries Any cure says Miller for aging would probably keep most of us kicking until about 120 Researchers are working on treatments that lengthen the life span of mice by 50 percent at most So if the average human life span is about 80 years says Miller adding another 50 percent would get you to 120 So what can we conclude from this little disagreement among the researchers That life span is flexible 有弹性的 but there is a limit says 7 George Martin of the University of Washington We can get flies to live 50 percent longer he says But a fly s never going to live 150 years Of course if you became a new species 物种 one that ages at a slower speed that would be a different story he adds Does Martin really believe that humans could evolve 进化 their way to longer life It s pretty cool to think about he says with a smile 63 What does the story of Jeanne Calment prove to us A People can live to 122 B Old people are creative C Women are sporty at 85 D Women live longer than men 64 According to Steve Austad at the University of Texas A the average human life span could be 110 B scientists cannot find ways to slow aging C few people can expect to live to over 150 D researchers are not sure how long people can live 65 Who would agree that a scientist will become famous if he makes the wildest guess at longevity A Jerry Shay B Steve Austad C Rich Miller D George Martin 66 What can we infer from the last three paragraphs A Most of us could be good at sports even at 120 B The average human life span cannot be doubled C Scientists believe mice are aging at a slower speed than before D New techniques could be used to change flies into a new species E E There is no doubt that to study abroad gives you an excellent opportunity to learn
