Some medical scientists say light drinking may even be good for your health, especially for the heart. But they say such health benefits(好处) shou

26、ld be compared to the many health risks connected with alcohol use. Some research suggests that having one to two drinks of alcohol a day may be good for your health. Several large studies have shown that this type of drinking may lower the risk of heart disease and other diseases. A study last year

27、 suggested that drinking a little red wine may help lower the risk of breast cancer(乳腺癌) in women. Researchers at Medical Center in California studied 36 women. Each woman drank a glass of red or white wine every day for almost a month. Researchers collected blood samples(样本) from the women two time

28、s a month to test their hormone(激素) levels. The next month these women were told to exchange their wine. The researchers found that the women who drank red wine had lower levels of the female hormone than the white wine drinkers. They said red grapes have chemicals that may help to lower the risk of

29、 breast cancer.However, recent studies suggested that even a little alcohol may generally increase the risk of breast cancer in women. They found that women who drink four small glasses of wine a week increase their risk of breast cancer by 15 percent.Many studies have examined the harmful effects o

30、f alcohol use on the body.

33、a (文凭) is losing its value quickly, as a growing number of students graduate (毕业) from school without the math and reading skills that colleges and companies require, according to a new report. The high school graduation exams that most states (州) require students to pass before they graduate remain

34、 far too easy. Most of the exams generally test eighth-or ninth-grade level work.Today, even high school graduates who are going to have blue-collar (蓝领) jobs need to study the math, research and writing courses. But in high school, only students who are going to college are now required to take the

35、se courses. “If you want a good job with a good pay, its a high-skill job,” said Michael Cohen, a leading member of the America Diploma Project.The project suggests that all graduates master a wide range (范围) of skills. “A high school diploma should mean something to a company and university,” said

36、Ohio Gov. Bob Taft, who is Achieves co-chairman. In Tafts state, about 30% students who go directly to college from high school have to take_of English or math, he said. Its easy to see that the present high-school graduating standards are not preparing students for college education.And with high-s

37、killed jobs increasingly headed overseas to places like India and Ireland, states need to act, he said.To prove why math and reading skills matter, the report includes real-life examples of problems students meet in college and that workers must solve each day on the job. Some states are taking acti

38、ons to upgrade the high school diploma. In Texas, all high school students, starting with the 2008 graduating class, will have to take the college-prep curriculum (大学预备课程) - unless a parent agrees to an easier course load. Other states are planning similar moves.The report includes examples of readi

39、ng and math skills that high-school students should have. Project leaders say they hope parents will use those examples to judge (评定) the coursework at their kids high schools.1Why is the high school diploma losing its value quickly?ABecause the number of high school students is growing fast.BBecaus

40、e high school students fail to reach the standards.CBecause the graduation tests are easier than it should be.DBecause difficult courses are not required in high schools.2Remedial classesin Paragraph 6 mean classes_.Afor good learners to study quickly and betterBfor slower learners weak in the subje

41、ctCfor learners to be taught one by oneDfor learners to reach a higher standard3What can we learn from the passage?AColleges require higher math and reading skills than companies.BIt is easier for companies to find high-skilled workers in India.CMath and reading skills help little for workers to sol

43、lure is a part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. The “spider story” is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider spinning a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock

44、. He tried six times without success. On the seventh time he made it and went on to spin his web. Bruce is said to have taken heart and to have gone on to defeat the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one.So what

45、? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change so things will go right next time?Second, is the goal youre trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about this q

46、uestion, “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?” This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldnt be doing anyway.The third thing to bear in mind about failure is that its a part of life. Learn to “live with yourself” even though you may have failed. Remember, “You cant win them all

47、.”1The “spider story” mentioned in the passage is used to show that _.Aonly failure can lead you to successBwe can make it if we keep tryingCfailure is always terribleDpeople who fail have the same experience2The underlined phrase “bear in mind” in the last paragraph means _.Atake care Bforget Creco

48、gnize Dremember3The writer tells us to do all the things when dealing with failure except _.Athinking about how it happenedBbelieving that we cant live happily if we failCconsidering failure as a part of lifeDchecking out whether our goals are right for the present situation4The main idea of this pa

49、ssage is _.Awhat the value of failure isBthat Edison and Bruce failed repeatedly before successCwhat failure is and how to deal with failureDfailure may be considered as a way towards succesF18、Have you ever been in the situation when you really didnt believe what someone was saying? Perhaps they we

50、re saying “yes” but their heads were shaking “no”. The difference between the words people say and our understanding of what they are saying comes from body language. By knowing more signs of body language, you can more easily understand other people, and more effectively communicate with them. Move

51、ments, gestures, and facial expressions all say that something is going on. Whats more, the way we talk, walk, sit and stand all give messages to people. As you watch others, confident people will stand still with shoulders back, give slow and clear speech and always give eye contact. Otherwise, the

52、 person seems to have little confidence. If a person speaks to you with his body turning away from you, arms crossed or very small facial expressions, this person is giving his “dead ears”. He usually doesnt listen to you. And its crucial to know when people are lying. Some of the typical signs that a person is lying include: A person gives little or no eye contact, or there may be fast eye movements. Hand or fingers are in front of his or her mouth when speaking. His s
