28、iman Museum. Now I can't decide which is the best!Many of London's major art galleries and museums are open in the evening and often have special evening events. This can be a great way to relax at the end of a busy day seeing the sights. The main London galleries and museums are air-conditi

29、oned so it can be wonderful way to cool down in the height of summer in the city. Galleries and museums are not open late every night so here is a handy list to help you plan your days and evenings.Royal ParksMany people say the Queen Mary's Rose Gardens in Regent's Park is their favorite sp

30、ot in London, and who am I to argue? I would also recommend St. James's Park as it offers one of the best views of Buckingham Palace. Hyde Park is enormous and includes the ever popular Diana Memorial Fountain and the Peter Pan Statue.There are often free talks and guided walks in the royal park

31、s so do check the What's On section of the Royal Parks website.Changing of the GuardNo visit to London is complete without seeing this military tradition. The Queen's Guard in London changes in the Forecourt inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30am every day in the summer and every o

34、mmer, visitors have to _.A. gain access to the front gates after 11:30 a.m.B. pay a sum of money to enter the Royal ParksC. arrive at Buckingham Palace before 11:30 a.m.D. come through the gates of Buchingham PalaceCDieters are often advised to stop drinking alcohol to avoid the extra calories lurki

35、ng in a glass of wine or a favorite cocktail. But new research suggests that women who regularly consume moderate(适度的) amounts of alcohol are less likely to gain weight than nondrinkers and are at lower risk for obesity (fatness).The findings, reported this week in the Archives of Internal Medicine,

36、 are based on a study of 19,220 United States women aged 30 to 40 who fall into the “normal weight” based on their body mass index. Researchers at Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston tracked the womens drinking habits over 13 years. About 60 percent of the women were light or regular drinkers, whi

37、le about 40 percent reported drinking no alcohol.Over the course of the study, 41 percent of the women became overweight. Although alcohol is packed with calories, the nondrinkers in the study actually gained more weight over time: nine pounds, on average, compared with an average gain of about thre

38、e pounds among regular moderate drinkers. The risk of becoming overweight was almost 30 percent lower for women who consumed one or two alcohol drinks a day, compared with nondrinkers.The findings are certain to be confusing for women who continue to receive conflicting messages about the health ben

39、efits and risks of alcohol. Although moderate drinking is associated with better heart health, regular drinking also increases breast cancer risk.The trend toward less weight gain among drinkers doesnt appear to hold true for men. A 2003 study of British men showed that regular drinkers gained more

40、weight than nondrinkers. Studies suggest that drinking alcohol has different effects on eating habits among men and women. Men typically add alcohol to their daily caloric intake, whereas women are more likely to substitute（替代）alcohol for food. In addition, there may be differences in how men and wo

41、men metabolize（代谢）alcohol. Metabolic studies show that after men drink alcohol, they experience little if any metabolic change. But alcohol appears to slightly speed up a womans metabolism.The findings dont mean women should rush to drink alcohol to lose weight. Other research shows that once a pers

42、on is already overweight, her alcohol metabolism is more efficient, and so an overweight woman may gain more weight from alcohol than a lean(瘦的) woman. The data do, however, suggest that for many women facing weight problems, the extra calories are probably not coming from alcoholic drinks.63. Accor

43、ding to the study, which of the following regular drinker is less likely to gain weight than nondrinkers? 64. That men regular drinkers gained more weight than women regular drinkers is due to the following except _. A. women are more likely to substitute alcohol for food. B. men drink alcohol much

44、faster than women.C. men and women metabolize alcohol differently.D. men have different effects on eating habits with women.65. The underlined word “whereas” may probably mean _.A. so B. in order that C. but D. and then66. What can a dieter probably do before reading this passage? A. Rush to drink a

45、lcohol to lose weightB. Add alcohol to his or her daily caloric intake.C. Face the weight problems alone.D. Try to stop drinking any alcohol or wine.DSection One The city is an accumulation of human civilization. Just as the American social philosopher (哲学家) Lewis Mumford put it, it is a special sys

46、tem which, fine and compact, has been designed to preserve the fruits of human civilization. Many Western languages have developed their versions of the term “civilization” from the same Latin (拉丁语的) word “civitas”(meaning “city”), and it is by no means a coincidence. The city has played a significa

47、nt role in the perfection of order in human society. Section Two The emblem, showing the image of three people you, me, him/her holding hands together, symbolizes the big family of mankind. Inspired by the shape of the Chinese character “世” (meaning the world), the design conveys the organizers'

48、 wish to host an Expo which is of global scale and which displays the various urban cultures of the world.Section Three Created from the inspiration of Chinese character “人”, the design roots deeply in Chinese culture. It tells the world the eternal core (永恒的核心) and theme of Shanghai World Expo will

49、 be always human. The mascot “Haibao” will become the messenger for the theme of World Expo 2010 Shanghai China “Better City, Better Life”.The basic structure of the Chinese character “人” in which each stroke(一笔，一划) supports each other also shows the concept that the beautiful life should depends on

50、 mutual-help. If the human are willing to support one another, the harmony among human, nature, and society will be available. Such an urban life will be nice. Haibaos confident smile is expressing his sincere greeting from China “World Expo 2010 Shanghai China welcomes you!”67. Section One mainly t

51、ells us about _.A. the part cities play in human civilizationB. the development of the word “city”C. why the Expo is held in Shanghai D. where human civilization originated68.

53、connected with the _ of the Chinese word “人”.A. story B. meaningC. shape D. usageE    I used to watch her from my kitchen window. She seemed so small as she muscled her way through the crowd of boys on the playground. The school was across the street from our home and I would oft

54、en watch the kids as they played during break. I remember the first day I saw her playing basketball. I watched in wonder as she ran circles around the other kids. She managed to shoot jump shots just over their heads and into the net. The boys always tried to stop her but no one could. I began to n

55、otice her at other times, basketball in hand, playing alone.One day I asked her why she practiced so much. Without a moment of hesitation she said, “I want to go to college. The only way I can go is to get a scholarship. I am going to play college basketball. I want to be the best. My Daddy told me

56、if the dream is big enough, the facts dont count.” Well, I had to give it to hershe was determined. I watched her through those junior high years and into high school. Every week, she led her school team to victory.One day in her senior year, I saw her sitting in the grass, head in her arms. I walked across the street and sat down in the cool grass beside her. Quietly I asked what was wrong. “Oh, nothing,” came a soft reply, “I am just too short.” The coach told her that at 55
