Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results showed that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention in class. Contrary to what many people believe, if you dont eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is becausepeople become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining some weight instead of losing some. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals21During the test, those who were tested were given _Ano breakfast at all Ba very rich breakfastClittle food for breakfast Ddifferent breakfasts or none22 The results of the test showed that _Abreakfast has a great effect on work and studyBbreakfast has little to do with a persons workCa person will work better if he has a simple breakfastDthose working with brains should have a lot for breakfast23 The passage infers that many people believe that if you dont eat breakfast, you will _Alose weight Bnot lose or gain weightCbe healthier Dgain a lot of weight24 Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?APoor breakfasts affect those who work with their brainsBHaving no breakfast may cause one to get fatterCHaving a big lunch and supper is of great value in weight-losingDEating less for lunch and supper may help to lose weightBLife is difficultIt is great truth because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longer difficultMost do not fully see this truth. Instead, they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or upon their families, their class, or even their nationWhat makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness, lonelinessor regret or anger and fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joyYet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious tests that tell us success from failure When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solveIt is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learnAs Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt instruct” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems25From the passage, it can be inferred that_Aeverybody has problemsBwe become stronger by meeting and solving the problems of lifeClife is difficult because our problems bring us painDpeople like to complain about their problems26 The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to _Asave space Bpersuade readersCmakes readers laugh Dget readers attention27 The main idea of Paragraph 3 is that _Amost people feel life is easyBthe writer feels life is easyCthe writer likes to complain about his problemsDmost people complain about how hard their lives are28 According to the passage, we give schoolchildren difficult problems to solve in order to _Aencourage them to learnBteach them to fear the pain of solving the problemChelps them learn to deal with painDteach them how to solve problemsCIn old times, man considered lightning to be one of the greatest mysteries of nature. In fact, a single flash of lightning 16 km long has enough electricity to light one million lampsThe American scientist, Benjamin Franklin, was the first to suggest that lightning is in fact electricity formed between the Earth and clouds high aboveIt happened in 1752In the same year, he also built the first lightning rod to protect buildings from being struck by lightningModern science has discovered that lightning is very long and powerful. A lightning between a cloud and the Earth may be as long as 13 km, and travels at a speed of 30 million meters per secondScientists have the opinion that there are about 2 billion flashes of lightning per year. In the United States alone, it kills almost one person per dayThe safest place to be in during an electrical storm is a closed car. Outside, one should go close to low ground for cover and not stop under a treeAlso one should stay out of water and away from metal fencesInside a house, people should keep away from open doorways and windows and not touch wires or metal things29In the USA, _Aevery person can see lightning every dayBat least one person is killed by lightning every dayCthere are about 6 million flashes of lightning per yearDabout one person per day dies from lightning30During a lightning storm, it would be best if you _Astand under a tree Bgo outsideCstay in a closed car Dstop near windows31 A lightning rod can _Aprevent accidents caused by lightning Bstop lightningCprotect building from being washed away Ddelay the coming of lightningDLooking back on my childhood, I get to believe that naturalists are born and not madeAlthough we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon threw away their pressed flowers and insects Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmeticBefore World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the unclear memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and, above all, the insectsI am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my enthusiasm（热情） has led me into varied investigations（调查）. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other peoples observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mindSuddenly you wonder you see the answer to the riddle（迷）, because it all seems to fit togetherThis has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honour with the title of scientific researchBut curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist; one of the outstanding qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist requires not only self-discipline but hard training, determination and a goal. A scientist, up to a point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds32The first paragraph tells us that the author _Awas born to a naturalists family Blost his hearing when he was a childCdidnt like his brothers and sisters Dwas interested in flowers and insects33The author cant remember his relatives clearly because _Ahe didnt live long with them Bhe was fully busy observing natureCthe family was too large to remember Dhe was too young when he lived with them34 It can be inferred from the passage that the author was _Aa naturalist but not a scientist Bmore a good observer than a listenerCno more than a born naturalist Da scientist as well as a naturalist35 The author says hes a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he _Alacks some of the qualities required of a scientistBhe couldnt do mental arithmeticChe was brought up in a family of farmersDhe was not knowledgeable enough第2节 :任务型阅读第3节 阅读下列材料, 从所给的六个选项(A、B、C、D、E、和F) 中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，选项中有一项是多余选项。若选项是E，请把AB同时涂黑；若选项是F,则把CD同时涂黑。第4节 The people below are all looking for a place for different purposes.
