Many researchers believe adults, especially parents and coaches, are the main _53  of too much aggression ill children's sports. They believe children _54 _ aggressive adult behavior.

解析:

主要內(nèi)容是:人們一般認(rèn)為孩子要進(jìn)行運動,因為運動是有趣的,而且可以使孩子保持身體健康。然而,對孩子來說,進(jìn)行體育運動也有消極的作用。

50. B.根據(jù)句中的however可知此處是表示了語意的轉(zhuǎn)折,那么就要選擇一個表示否定、消極的意義的詞,所以選擇negative。restrictive是“受約束的,限制的”,active是“積極的”,instructive是“有教育意義的”,都不合題意。

51. D.此處的shout at和后面的call names構(gòu)成并列關(guān)系,容易選出。

52. A.根據(jù)句意“這會給孩子留下不好的印象”,leave impression是“留下印象”的意思。

53. B.根據(jù)句意知“很多研究人員認(rèn)為,成年人,尤其是父母和教練,是在孩子的運動出現(xiàn)很多攻擊/侵略行為的起因”,導(dǎo)致某事發(fā)生的原因用cause,其他三項意思不合句意。

54. C.根據(jù)上下文可知,“他們認(rèn)為孩子在模仿/復(fù)制成年人的行為”,故選擇copy。

55. A.據(jù)上下文知道,大人們經(jīng)常是有意無意地把這樣的信息傳達(dá)給孩子,那就是“在運動中取勝就是一切”,所以,選擇winning。

56. D.在運動中對其他的選手,即對手當(dāng)然是insults(辱罵/侮辱的言行)。

57. C.大人們常因為自己的孩子在運動中表現(xiàn)出進(jìn)攻性、侵略性動作時就為之歡呼、加油。

58. A.同樣,孩子們甚至被教導(dǎo)到傷害對手是可以被接受的,所以選擇acceptable, impolite是“不禮貌的”,possible是“可能的”,accessible是“易接近的”,均不合題意。

59. B.這里是又說到了另外的一個方面,即media的作用,所以,此處要填in addition。

60. B.此處考查短語意思辨析。face up to是“面對,直面”的意思,符合句意。look up to是“尊重”的意思,make up for是“彌補,補償”的意思,come up with是“提出,提供,趕上”的意思,都不合句意。

61. A.此處填in particular表示“尤其”,強調(diào)尤其是父母或教練應(yīng)當(dāng)給孩子們樹立起好的榜樣。in all是“總共”,in return是“作為報答,作為回報”,in advance是“提前”的意思,都不合此處意思。

62. C.根據(jù)句意,“父母或教練應(yīng)該教給孩子更好的價值觀”,而不是“技術(shù)、手段、方向”。

63. D.enjoy oneself 是固定搭配,意為“過得愉快”,其他三項意思不符。

64. C.根據(jù)句意“如果大人們告訴孩子受傷了也要繼續(xù)進(jìn)行運動,他們就給了孩子這樣的信息,即:生命健康不如獲勝重要”,所以此處要選擇health,而不是body(身體),fame(名譽),spirit(精神)。

Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blankets by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

  

Like our body, our memory needs regular exercise to be in good condition. Like the sportsman who must train to allow the body to respond to difficult times, the memory needs its own special training in order to stay in “shape” and improve.

There are many factors that can cause poor memory like insomnia (失眠), depression and alcohol. However, there are simple ways which you can follow to keep your memory in shape and actually help you to improve your memory’s condition and performance.

Never stop learning. Look for topics that interest you and really get involved in learning new information about them. Reading and attending lectures or programs are sources of continuous education of your brain with beneficial results to your memory.

    Develop your social and family relationships. The more social you are, the better it is for your brain. Studies have shown that the brain and heart have a lot to gain from good family and social relationships.

    Exercise your mind with games. The more you use your brain, the more you help your memory stay in shape. There are many games that can make you an intelligent person as well as entertain you such as chess, puzzles and board games.

    Exercise physically can improve your memory. This type of exercise improves the circulatory (血液循環(huán)的) system. Even the simple but regular daily exercise such as fast walking can improve the heart and oxygenation(供氧) of the brain. The benefits of exercise affect positively many body systems, as well as our memory and other cognitive(認(rèn)知的) capabilities.

    Eat more fruit and vegetables. What we eat every day affects the performance and long-term condition of our memory. Fruit and vegetables are an excellent source of antioxidants(抗氧化劑) and vitamins that can help and benefit the nervous system.

   So our memory is like a sportsman. The more we practice our brains and memory, the better their performance will be.

The concept of health holds different meanings for different people and groups. These meanings have also changed over time. This change is no more evident than in Western society today, when notions of health and health promotion are being challenged and expanded in new ways.

For much of recent Western history, health has been viewed in the physical sense only. That is, good health has been connected to the smooth mechanical operation of the body, while ill health has been attributed to a breakdown in this machine. Health in this sense has been defined as the absence of disease or illness and is seen in medical terms.

In the late 1940s the World Health Organization challenged this physically and medically oriented (導(dǎo)向的) view of health. They stated that health is a complete state of physical, mental and social well-being and is not merely the absence of disease (WHO, 1946). Health and the person were seen more holistically (mind / body / spirit) and not just in physical terms.

The 1970s was a time of focusing on the prevention of disease and illness by emphasizing the importance of the lifestyle and behaviour of the individual. Specific behaviours which were seen to increase risk of disease, such as smoking, lack of fitness and unhealthy eating habits, were targeted. Creating health meant providing not only medical health care, but also health promotion programs and policies which would help people maintain healthy behaviours and lifestyles. While this individualistic healthy lifestyle approach to health worked for some (the wealthy members of society), it was of little benefit to people experiencing poverty, unemployment, underemployment or who had little control over the conditions of their daily life.

During the 1980s and 1990s there has been a growing swing away from seeing lifestyle risks as the root cause of poor health. While lifestyle factors still remain important, health is being viewed also in terms of the social, economic and environmental contexts in which people live. This broad approach to health is called the socio-ecological view of health.

At the Ottawa Conference in 1986, a charter was developed which outlined new directions for health promotion based on the socio-ecological view of health. This charter, known as the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, remains as the backbone of health action today. In exploring the scope of health promotion it states that:

Good health is a major resource for social, economic and personal development and an important dimension (尺度) of the quality of life. Political, economic, social, cultural, environmental, behavioural and biological factors can all favour health or be harmful to it. (WHO, 1986)

1.From the passage, we can infer that _________.

A.good health means not having any illness

B.health has different meanings for different people in different periods

C.health has always been viewed in terms of the social, economic and environmental contexts in which people live

C.had enough money

D.had a good lifestyle

3.        of society benefited most from the healthy lifestyle approach to health.

C.Old people

D.Young people

4.The socio-ecological view of health includes the following broad areas EXCEPT ________.

A.the social contexts

Directions:  Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage.

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

As we all know, all the governments in the world collect taxes(稅), but what are they and what are they used for? Some people may not know about them.

There are two kinds of taxes. One of the most important taxes is income-taxes which a person pays according to the amount of his income. Whatever he is, he must pay tax if income is more than a certain amount. This is called a “direct” tax, because it is paid in money directly to the government.

Another tax is paid on goods. When they are brought into a country, such a tax is paid as part of the price of these goods if they are later sold in shops. We call it “indirect” tax, because it is paid indirectly through the shopkeepers.

People usually complain about having to pay taxes, but they forget that the money is spent on what they need. On one hand, we need policemen and soldiers to protect us from danger. Meanwhile, we also need schools and teachers for our children. On the other hand, we need officials and workers to serve us. Above all, we need money to develop our nation.

Taxes, therefore, can’t be avoided. We have no real reason to complain when we are asked to supply money to be spent for the good of ourselves and for our fellow-citizens.
