I was very grateful and determined to 39 him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $ 200 for what he had done. I was 40 . He had good reason to 41 me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my 42 , Id have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. 43 he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only 44 that I should pay him.But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to 45 about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop 46 one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten 47 , and it cost me $215.My lawyer was all 48 the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me 49 .

The yoga practitioners who were overweight at 45 lost an average of 5 pounds, as opposed to an average gain of 13 pounds in overweight nonpractitioners.Dr. Alan R. Kristal, the lead author on the study and associate director of the cancer prevention program at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, emphasized that yoga was not a magic weight control technique. “There are many weight control strategies,” he said. “But none allows you to escape the laws of thermodynamics(热力学). If you take in more energy than you use up, then it will be stored as fat.”But, he added, yoga offers “a safe and comfortable way for people who have never been physically active to begin regular physical activity.”Unsurprisingly, the study found significant differences in lifestyle between those who exercised and those who did not. Yoga practitioners engaged in more physical activity apart from yoga than did nonpractitioners. Longtime practitioners had an 11 percent lower energy intake from fat and a 45 percent higher energy intake from fruits and vegetables.Moreover, for an inactive person, yoga can be the beginning of more strenuous physical activity. Yoga practitioners time and again report that they feel “more connected” to their bodies, which may reduce food intake by helping increase awareness of being too full.56. The underlined word “spread” in Paragraph 1 means “_”. A. becoming unhealthy B. becoming inactiveC. becoming slim D. becoming large57. The researchers mentioned in the passage _ in their research. A. made comparisons B. used equipmentC. practiced yoga D. lost weight58. On average, if a 160-pound person began to practise yoga at 45 regularly, he might weigh _ pounds at 49. A. 156.9 B. 147 C. 155 D. 142BThe tower of Big Ben, Londons most famous building, has always leaned(倾斜) slightly, but construction work on a new line for the London Underground seemed likely to give the tower a real lean. Engineers have had to prop up(支撑) its base to prevent it from damaging the rest of the Houses of Parliament.To control the towers movement, engineers pumped grout(水泥浆) into the soil under the tower. The tower now leans an extra few centimeters, but the lean can only be seen by the most sharp-eyed observer.Between 1995 and 1997, to lengthen the Jubilee of the Underground, builders dug a 40-metre-deep hole just 31 metres north of the clock tower. And the new tube (underground) tunnels were even nearer to the tower. John Burland, who recently helped stop the increasing lean in the Leaning Tower of Pisa and was as adviser to the Jubilee line project, believed the work would affect the tower. In his opinion, no further lean should go beyond a safety limit of 27.5 millimetres over the existing lean of 220 millimetres.To keep the lean within this limit, Burland told the British Association about the new method of pumping grout immediately under the base of the tower. More than 300 tons of grout were pumped in during construction. The towers additional lean went between 10 and 25 millimetres, but never passed 27.5 millimetres.After the construction work completed in late 1997, a review of movements in nearby walls showed that the building was in better shape than had been thought before and the safety limit was raised to 35 millimetres before any action needs to be taken.Since 1997, the tower has continued to lean, Burland told Modern Construction. The latest measurements, taken this year, suggest that the towers lean had just reached 35 millimetres. But following regular re-examinations of the tower, experts are sure that the tower has stabilized(稳定). A spokesman for London Underground says: “We understand the tower has stabilized and returned to its normal movement cycle.”From Modern Construction, 16 September, 2000 59. Which of the following drawings correctly shows how the propping up construction was carried out?60. What does the word “review” (in Paragraph 5) mean? A. Observation. B. Description. C. Discussion. D. Re-examination.61. What was the existing lean of the tower at the time when the article was written? A. 220 millimetres. B. 255 millimetres. C. 35 millimetres. D. 27.5 millimetres.62. We can infer from the article that _. A. the tower of Big Ben will damage the Houses of ParliamentB. the Jubilee line should be stopped in Burlands opinionC. the writer is blaming Burland for making a mistakeD. the propping up work has proved to be successfulCIf women are mercilessly exploited(剥削) year after year, they have only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; necklines are lowered or raised, and so on.No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability(耐用). They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasnt at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashions of womens clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of instability(不稳定)? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide.63. Designers and big stores always make money _. A. by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industryB. because they are capable of predicting new fashionsC. by constantly changing the fashions in womens clothingD. because they always improve quality of womens clothing64. To the writer, the fact that women change their old-fashioned dresses is seen as _. A. a quality of instability B. a waste of timeC. an expression of taste D. an expression of creativity65. The writer would be less critical if fashion designers placed more stress on the _ of clothing. A. cost B. appearance C. comfort D. suitability66. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? A. New fashions in clothing are created for the commercial exploitation of women.B. The constant changes in womens clothing reflect their strength of character.C. The fashion industry makes an important contribution to society.D. Fashion designs should not be encouraged since they are only welcomed by women.67. By saying “the conclusions to be drawn are obvious”, the writer means that _. A. womens changeableness in their choice of clothing is often laughed atB. women are better able to put up with discomfortC. men are also exploited greatly by fashion designersD. men are more reasonable in the matter of fashionDWhere do pesticides(杀虫剂) fit into the picture of environmental disease? We have seen that they now pollute soil, water, and food, that they have the power to make our streams fishless and our gardens and woodlands silent and birdless. Man, however much he may like to pretend the contrary, is part of nature. Can he escape a pollution that is now so thoroughly distributed throughout our world?We know that even single exposures(暴露) to these chemicals, if the amount is large enough, can cause extremely serious poisoning. But this is not the major problem. the sudden illness or death of farmers, farm workers, and others exposed to sufficient quantities of pesticides are very sad and should not occur. For the population as a whole, we must be more concerned with the delayed effects of absorbing small amounts of the pesticides that invisibly pollute our world.Responsible public health officials have pointed out that the biological effects of chemicals are cumulative(积累的) over long periods of time, and that the danger to the individual(个体) may depend on the amount of the exposures received throughout his lifetime. For these very reasons the danger is easily ignored. It is human nature to shake off what may seem to us a threat of future disaster. “Men are naturally most impressed by diseases which have obvious signs,” says a wise physician, Dr. Rene Dubos, “ye
