Although there is no certain way to avoid all cancers, reducing individual risk factors significantly decreases the likelihood of getting many forms of this dangerous disease.The American Chemical Society estimates that smoking causes nearly 30 percent of all cancer deaths in the United States that is, about 166,000 cancer deaths each year. All cancer deaths caused by tobacco smoking could be prevented completely by not smoking and not using smokeless tobacco. For those who already smoke, quitting will reduce the risk of developing cancer. Studies show that after about ten years of not smoking, a past smokers risk lowers to about the level of those who have never smoked.After quitting smoking, eating a healthy diet is the best way to lower the risk of cancer. Certain foods have been found to protect against cancer. Among these foods are cabbages, tomatoes, soy products, and foods high in vitamins A, C, and E. In addition, green and possibly black teas contain compounds that protect the body from cancer-causing substance.To lower cancer risk, diets should include little or no red meat. Other foods to avoid or consume in moderation include sugar, fat from animal products, and salt. Added fats and oils should come from vegetables, such as olives or corn, rather than from animal sources. Carbohydrates (碳水化合物) should come from whole grains, such as brown rice and whole wheat bread, rather than from processed foods, such as white rice and white bread.The risk of cancer of the esophagus (食道) increases with heavy alcohol consumption, and many studies suggest that consuming alcoholic drinks increases the risk of breast cancer as well. Studies show that limiting intake to two drinks a day for men, and one drink per day for women, reduces cancer risk.Low levels of physical activity have been implicated (牵连) in some cancer. Moderate activity for 30 minutes a day enhances the immune system, shortens the time food takes to move through the intestines (肠), and changes body composition and hormone levels. Researchers are studying how these effects might lower cancer risk.1. Which do you think is the best title for this passage?A. Lifestyle and disease.B. Causes of cancers.C. Tips for cancer prevention.D. Ways to remain healthy.2. Which of the following is true according to the author?A. A person drinking tea regularly will not be likely to suffer from cancer.B. Once a smoker has stopped smoking, there is almost no chance of getting cancers.C. A balanced diet is absolutely effective in preventing one from getting cancer.D. Those who have quitted smoking for 10 years and non-smokers have about the same cancer risk.3. What kind of people increase their chances of getting cancers?A. Those whose foods contain less sugar, animal fat, and salt.B. One who is not moderate in drinking or eating.C. Those who have one or two drinks regularly.D. Those whose diet contains little red meat and a lot of vegetables.4. The last paragraph implies that _.A. foods staying in ones body for too long a time might be related to a kind of cancerB. the reasons why physical activity lowers cancer risk are clearC. the more you exercise, the lower cancer risk you will takeD. plenty of physical exercise is most important for one to remain healthyB“First we make our habits, then our habits make us.”- Charles C. NobleIts such a simple concept, yet its something we dont always do. Its not extremely difficult to do, and yet I think its something that would make a world of difference in anyones life. Break your goals into habits, and focus on putting those habits into autopilot. My belief is that having one goal to focus on is much more powerful than having many goals.I try to turn my goals into habits, and in doing so, I put my goals on autopilot. Turning a goal into a habit means really focusing on it, seriously, for at least a month, to the exclusion of all else. The more you can focus on it, the more itll be put on autopilot. Lets look at my marathon goal as an example. I was just starting out in running, and I had the brilliant idea to run a marathon within a year. But in order to achieve that goal, I broke it down into two habits:1. I had to make running a daily habit.2. I had to report to people in order to have accountability (责任) - I did this through family, friends and coworkers, through a blog, and through a column in my local newspaper every two weeks. With this accountability, theres no way I would stop running.The accountability habit took a couple of months, mainly because I didnt focus on it too much while I was building the running habit. But it stuck, and for that first year of running, I would report to people I knew and blog about my running every day and I would write a column every two weeks for my local paper.Once those two habits were firmly fixed, my marathon goal was pretty much on autopilot. I still had to do the work, of course, but it didnt require constant focus. And eventually, I ran the marathon. I was able to achieve this because, all year long, I had the daily running habit and daily accountability habit. I put my marathon goal into autopilot, and that made it much easier - instead of struggling with it daily for an entire year, I focused on it for one month and was able to accomplish it while focusing on new habits and goals.5. According to the passage, we can see the key to forming a habit is _.A. to break the goals into habitsB. to report to other people about your planC. to set a reasonable goal firstD. to focus on the habit as much as possible6. The author told people about his running in order to _.A. get more supportB. ask for their opinionsC. carry out his plan betterD. earn more admiration7. What do we know about the author?A. He was a local athlete.B. He often gave people advice.C. He had no blogs before.D. He wrote for a local newspaper.8. The passage is mainly about _.A. goals and habitsB. how to turn your goals into habitsC. habits and achievementsD. how to make running a good habit答案：C D B A D C D B六书面表达最近几年来，随着家用汽车数量的增长，我国的交通事故数目呈上升的趋势。假设你是李华，你的美国网友Tom通过电子邮件问及这方面情况。请根据下表提示，给Tom回信介绍这一情况。次数150左右。开头和结尾已给，不计入总词数。事故原因司机不遵守交通法规，超速行驶，酒后驾驶；骑自行车者离车辆太近；行人乱闯红灯。事故后果车毁人亡解决办法司机、骑自行车者和行人珍爱生命，增强安全意识；人人遵守交通法规；政府优先发展公交系统，限制私家车的数量Dear Tom,Now let me answer the questions you raised in your e-mail._.Yours,Li HuaDear Tom,Now let me answer the questions you raised in your e-mail.In the past few years, the number of family cars in my country has increased. So has the number of traffic accidents. As a result, cars have been damaged and the unfortunate people have got injured or even killed.The causes of traffic accidents lie in the following facts. First, some drivers dont obey traffic rules. They drive at too high a speed or even drive after drinking. Second, some cyclists ride their bikes too close to vehicles and whats more, some pedestrians cant wait to cross the road when the traffic lights are still red.In my opinion, everyone should treasure their lives and increase their awareness of safety. Traffic rules should be obeyed strictly. In addition, our government should take on the responsibility to develop the public transport system and limit the number of family cars. Only in this way can we have a safer living condition and live a better life.Yours,Li HuaProject一 Read the article on Pages 62 and 63 of the Students Book and answer the following questions.1.
