28、Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through t

29、he center.Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:As our lives become increasingly sedentary (久坐的) and our eating habits correspondingly unhealthy, some of us are eating ourselves into an early grave. The statistics really are alarming. More than half the adults in the UK a

30、re overweight and one in five is obese (肥胖的)-which means their weight noses a serious threat to their health. The reasons for this weight "epidemic" seem to be a combination of sedentary lifestyle and the way our eating habits have changed in recent years. Some people may be more inclined

31、to put on weight for genetic reasons, but the fundamental cause of overweight and obesity is the fact that people are simply consuming more calories than they use up, and the excess is stored as fat. Certainly, we exercise less than we once did in our daily lives. Where our grandmothers swept floors

32、 and carpets and washed clothes and dishes by hand, these tasks are commonly carried out by a machine today, while walking or cycling to work or to the shops has been replaced in many cases by a car journey-or even working or shopping electronically from home. Many tasks at work are now also automat

33、ed.Eating habits, too, have changed radically. We may be voracious (狼吞虎咽的) consumers of TV cookery shows, but some scholars point out that we watch them as entertainment rather than rushing off immediately afterwards to recreate the featured dishes. In fact, ready meals and fast food often replace h

34、ome-prepared and cooked food, especially during the week, and different members of the family tend to eat when they want to rather than waiting for a meal to be ready to sit down together. We have also become a nation of "grazers" - picking at snacks throughout the day rather than confinin

35、g the bulk of our consumption to three set mealtimes. Unfortunately, many of our favorite and readily available snacks, fast foods and takeaway meals are heavy on fat or sugar and short on fruit and vegetables. While this is not harmful in itself if used as an occasional treat, the situation becomes

36、 more serious when they form too large a proportion of the diet. These dietary changes are also affecting children. A 1999 study estimated that between 5 and 15 per cent of children of school age were overweight or obese, with the true number thought to be even higher.21. What does the author imply

37、by saying "some of us are eating ourselves into an early grave" (Line 2, Para 1)?A. Some people eat too much in their daily lives, they pay no attention to their health.B. Some of us like eating in a grave.C. Unhealthy eating habits will result in illness, even death.D. People's weight

38、 poses a serious threat to their health.22. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the reason for being overweight and obesity?A. Lack of exercise.B. Changing eating habits.C. A sedentary lifestyle.D. Not sweeping floors and carpets or washing clothes and dishes by hand.23. What is

39、the main idea of the second paragraph?A. People's eating habits have changed radically in recent years.B. People's lifestyles have changed, changed lifestyles have an influence on people's health.C. The fundamental cause of being overweight and obesity is the fact that people are simply

40、consuming more calories than they use up, and the excess is stored as fat.D. Many tasks in daily life are now automated.24. Which of the following is INCORRECT according to the passage?A. For most people, to a large extent, watching TV cookery shows is to learn how to recreate the featured dishes.B.

41、 Overweight and obesity may be caused by genetic reasons.C. Consuming too much fat or sugar is harmful to one's health.D. Home-prepared and cooked food are often replaced by ready made meals and fast food.25. The author's attitude towards the current situation of being overweight and obesity

42、 is _.A. positive B. neutralC. suspiciousD. realisticPassage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:As parents, we want our children to reach their full academic potential. We read to them, encourage their special talents, and support them when they have problems. If they choose t

43、o participate in music or sports, we also help them reach their potential in those areas. These are all good goals.There is, however, an even more important goal. It is a goal more difficult than excellence in arithmetic or soccer or the violin. Parents are responsible for providing their children w

44、ith a moral compass. They need to nurture and treasure goodness in their children. Every child has the capacity to become a good, decent human being. To fulfill this capacity, children need the guidance and support of parents and other adults. Raising good, moral children is the most important job w

45、e will have.What is a good, decent human being? While we may differ on some details, most would agree that respect for others, kindness and caring, honesty and honor, and a reverence (尊重)for life are key. Good, decent human beings are people with a firm sense of direction and purpose - a moral compa

46、ss - to guide their lives. Children need our help to develop these characteristics and values.While most people try to act with honor and kindness, doing so consistently is difficult and requires lifelong effort. Goodness is not easy for an adult, and it is even more difficult for a child. They do n

47、ot have the knowledge, experiences, or cognitive skills to understand the impact and consequences of their actions.Reinforcement is sometimes an efficient approach to building positive behavior. The child behaves in a desired way and the parents provide reinforcement. The behavior then typically inc

48、reases in frequency. This approach works for teaching "Please" and "Thank you". The new behavior is maintained, because it helps the child get along in the world.Loving, everyday interactions are the beginning of raising moral children. The child who falls and receives adult conc

49、ern learns how to treat others kindly when they stumble. The child who makes a mistake and is encouraged to try again learns how to support others. When parents intercede(调解) graciously for their child, the child can see the basis for friendship. When we treat children with respect and care, we prov

50、ide a positive model of how to behave. These early experiences establish patterns for their treatment of others.26. To provide their children with a moral compass, adults should_.A. encourage their children to learn more knowledge about sports or musicB. encourage their children to be a man with hig

51、h integrityC. support their children when they have problemsD. set a good example and give positive instructions to children27. According to the author, people with a moral compass are the kind of people who _.A. can reach their full academic potentialB. can lead a decent lifeC. know what to do D. h

52、ave developed characteristics and values such as respect for others28. Why does the author talk about teaching "Please" and "Thank you" (Line 4, Para 5)?A. To demonstrate that saying "Please" and "Thank you" is a good habit.B. To demonstrate that politeness is

53、 the nature of a moral compass.C. To demonstrate that politeness helps the child get along in the world.D. To demonstrate that reinforcement is an efficient approach to building positive behavior.29. Which of the following can express the main idea of the last passage?A. Adults should treat children

54、 with love.B. Adults should have more positive communication with children.C. Adults should treat children with respect and care.D. Adults should provide a positive model of how to behave for children.30. Which of the following can serve as the best title for this passage?A. How to Make Your Childre

55、n an Academically Excellent Student.B. How to Explore Your Child's Potential.C. How to Mold a Moral Child.D. How to Make Your Child a Versatile Student.Passage Three Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Expansion of cities, destruction of forests, erosion of fields and rising de

56、mand for water are likely to threaten human and ecological health in many countries for at least a generation, according to a new United Nations report on environmental trends.The world has seen significant environmental progress in recent years, says the report, which was released yesterday by the

57、United Nations Environment Program. Population growth is slowing, for example, and food production is largely keeping pace with it. But the report warns of severe water shortages in the Middle East over the next generation, and it says the growth of agriculture is damaging landscapes, raising the level of salt in the soil and reducing habitat for wildlife.It also includes some bl
