Brush gently for 2 minutes, at least twice a day.2How many times did you wash your hands or bathe yesterday?Finding: Seniors, on average, bathe fewer than 3 days a week. And nearly 30% wash their hands only 4 times a dayhalf of the number doctors recommend.Step: We touch our faces around 3,000 times a dayoften inviting germs(病菌)to enter our mouth, nose, and eyes. Use toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle. And, most important, wash your hands often with hot running water and soap for 20 seconds.3How often do you think about fighting germs?Finding: Seniors are not fighting germs as well as they should.Step: Be aware of germs. Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge (海绵) that can carry more germs than anything else? To kill these germs, keep your sponge in the microwave for 10 seconds.25What is found out about American seniors?AMost of them have good habits.BNearly 30% of them bathe three days a week.CAbout one third of them brush their teeth only once a day.D All of them are fighting germs better than expected.26Doctors suggest that people should wash their hands _.Aeight times a day Bthree times a dayCfour times a day D twice a day27Which of the following is true according to the text?AWe should keep from touching our faces.BThere are less than 300 types of bacteria in the mouth.CWe should wash our hands before touching a door handle.D A kitchen sponge can carry more germs than a toilet.28The text probably comes from _.Aa guide book Ba book reviewC a popular magazine Dan official document CElizabeth Bishop, who was famous for the poetry A Prodigal, Filling Station , Sandpiper, Manuelzinho and so on, was an influential(有影响的) American poet of the 20th century. Her poetry often shows things that concerned her throughout her life, such as her search for a sense of home. Her troubled childhood and feelings of loneliness from this time affected her character and poetry.Bishops painful childhood is apparent(显面易见的) in some of her poems. Her father died when she was eight months old and her mother was mad when she was five. Bishop was raised firstly by her mothers parents and then by her fathers parents. This experience left her confused about belonging. She had no home and this was shown in her poetry. In “A Prodigal”， when the character in the poem makes up his mind to go home, there is a sense of pessimism for Bishop who has no home. The lack of a sense of home has contributed to her depression(消沉) all her life.Bishop attempts(企图) to make small, everyday experiences extraordinary in her poems such as “Filling Station”. In “Filling Station”， Bishop describes the beauty of a family filling station. Although it is “dirty” there is order in it. Simple family life is celebrated in it. She recognizes the value of home and beauty in everyday life, but she is only an observer of these. Distance remains between her and the family at the filling station.Bishops struggle to locate herself in the world is seen no more clearly than in “Sandpiper”. It deals with searching for something in a confusing world. She uses the metaphor(暗喻) of the bird which is “looking for something”. The “something” isnt specific(特殊的). It seems as if the bird doesnt know what he wants; the only certain thing is that he is searching.Bishops poems are personal on a more subtle (巧妙的)level, especially when her childhood, travels, etc, are taken into consideration. It is believed that Bishop is a complex(复杂的)poet who uses her poetry to find this feeling of belonging.29What do we know about Elizabeth Bishops childhood?AShe was born poor. BHer parents didnt love her.CHer grandparents treated her badly. D She lived an unhappy life.30When reading Bishops poems, people can find her search for _.Athe true nature of human being Ba happy family lifeCthe feeling of belonging D parental love31Which of Bishops poems shows her love for simple family life?ASandpiper. BFilling Station. C Manuelzinho. DA Prodigal.32Which of the following words can best describe Bishop?AClever and strong. B Gifted but pessimistic.CUnfortunate but kind. DCreative and determined. DA new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exams than those who use laptops.Students are increasingly using laptops for notetaking because of speed and legibility(清晰度)But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught.Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes“mindlessly”by taking down word for word what the professors said.In the first experiment，students were given either a laptop or pen and paper.They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual notetaking skills.Thirty minutes after the talk，they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts.The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand.However，the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts.Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts.The researchers report said，“While more notes are beneficial，if the notes are taken mindlessly，as is more likely the case on a laptop，the benefit disappears. ”In another experiment aimed at testing longterm memory，students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture.This time，the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exam.These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding，but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.33More and more students favor laptops for notetaking because they can _.Aget higher scores Bdigest concepts betterC write more notes Dunderstand lecture better34While taking notes，laptop users tend to be _.Amindless Btireless Cthoughtful D skillful35The author of the passage aims to _.Aexamine the importance of longterm memoryBpromote the use of laptopsCexplain the process of taking notesD stress the benefit of taking notes by hand第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。To be successful peopleHere are some opinions about successful and unsuccessful people.Make life plans and set goalsYou cant be successful without knowing where you are going.
