閱讀理解。

The smiling face of Santa Claus appears all across China．Local governments are decorating trees and lamp posts with lights and ornaments．At first glance，visitors would think they were in Europe．

Despite the fact that most Chinese are not Christians，Christmas season has become increasingly popular．

"If you walked around major Chinese cities 15 years ago，you wouldn`t have seen many signs of Christmas．However，if you were to visit those same Chinese cities again today，you’d be surprised to see signs of Christmas almost everywhere，" says Cai Jiming，a professor with Tsinghua University，who has served as an expert in developing China`s holiday schedule．

Although Christmas is not a public holiday，many Chinese cities are still getting into the Christmas spirit．

Cai says his e-mail inbox and cell phone have been flooded with messages wishing him a merry Christmas．The greetings have been coming in since the end of November．

In his view，Christmas seems like a "warm-up" for the truly important coming month-long Spring Festival．

However，despite the prevalence (流行)of Christmas celebrations，for most Chinese，it neither means a religious celebration nor an occasion for family reunions．Instead，it is a time for relaxing with friends，a time to shop，a time to have a party and it is especially a time for romance．

"I expect my boyfriend to take me out on Christmas Eve and I expect a romantic night，" says Christine Zhou，28，a hotel manager in Beijing．"It seems to me that everything associated with Christmas time is romantic．"

On the streets，rose and chocolate peddlers are vying （競爭）for their business．

Christmas has become another Valentine`s Day，and at the same time，more people feel it is a time to reward themselves with good food and a good time．

However，as more Chinese join in the Christmas celebrations each year，some feel the Western-based festival is harming time-honored traditions．

But Cai considers it is unnecessary to boycott （抵制）a Western cultural festival．"All important festivals in different cultures have now developed into universal holidays，" he says．”

1.From the first paragraph，we know________．

A．Christmas has become the most important festival in China

B．Christmas is celebrated by a great number of people in China

C．Santa Claus doesn’t appear in Europe any more on Christmas

C．prove Christmas season has become more and more popular

3.Christmas celebrations for Chinese people mean_____．

B．a(chǎn)n occasion for family to get together．

C．a(chǎn) lover’s celebration．

D．relaxing with friends and a time for romance．

Brad closed the door slowly as Sue left home to visit her mother. Expecting a whole day to relax，he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favorite TV talk show on his first day off in months. “This will be like a walk in the park，”he’d told his wife. “I’ll look after the kids，and you can go visit your mom.”

Things started well，but just after eight o’clock，his three little “good kids”—Mike，Randy，and Alex—came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted “breakfast，daddy.” When food had not appeared within thirty seconds，Randy began using his spoon on Alex’s head as if it were a drum. Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat(節(jié)拍)．Mike chanted “Where’s my toast，where’s my toast” in the background. Brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.

Life became worse after breakfast. Mike wore Randy’s underwear on his head. Randy locked himself in the bathroom，while Alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants. Nobody could find clean socks，although they were before their very eyes. Someone named “Not Me” had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes. Brad knew the talk show had already started.

By ten o’clock，things were out of control. Alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter. Mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his color pencils. Randy，thankfully，appeared to be reading quietly in the family room，but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands. Brad realized that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.

At exactly 11∶17，Brad called the daycare centre(日托所)．“I suddenly have to go into work and my wife’s away. Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes？”The answer was obviously “yes” because Brad was smiling.

1.When his wife left home，Brad expected to________.

A. enjoy his first day off work

B. watch TV talk show with his children

C. go out for a walk in the park

D. read the newspaper to his children

2.Which of the following did Randy do?

C. Feeding the fish. D. Reading in a room.

3.Why did Brad ask the daycare centre for help?

A. Because he wanted to clean up his house.

4.This text is developed________.

C

Ask most people anywhere in the world what they want out of life and the reply will probably be: “to be happy.” Ed Deiner, an American psychology professor, has spent his whole professional life studying what makes people happy, comparing levels of happiness between cultures and trying to find out exactly why we enjoy ourselves.

Many people would say that this question does not need an answer. But Professor Deiner has one anyway. “If you’re a cheerful, happy person, your marriage is more likely to last, and you’re more likely to make money and be successful at your job. On average, happy people have stronger immune systems, and there is some evidence that they live longer.”

So who are the world's happiest people? It depends on how the word is defined. There is individual happiness, the sense of joy we get when we do something we like. But there is also the feeling of satisfaction we get when we know that others respect us and approve of how we behave. According to Professor Deiner, the Western world pursues individual happiness while Asia prefers mutual (相互的，彼此) satisfaction.

“In the West, the individualistic culture means that your mood matters much more than it does in the East. People ask themselves if they are doing what is fun or interesting. They become unhappy when they can’t do any of these things. If you ask people from Japan or China if they are happy, they tend to look at what has gone wrong in their lives. If not much has gone wrong, then they are satisfied.”

People from Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries had the happiest culture, Professor Deiner found. “The biggest cultural difference is to do with pride and shame. Hispanic (西班牙語言的) cultures report much more pride and much less shame than others.”

Income also made a big difference to people’s happiness, but only at the lowest levels. Average income earners in the US were much happier than people in poverty. But millionaires were only a little bit happier than people on average incomes. It seems that money makes us happy when we have enough to feel secure.

1.According to the passage, happy people enjoy the following benefits except ______.

A. a long marriage B. profession success

C. better health D. respect from others

2.What can be inferred from the fifth paragraph?

A. Hispanic cultures lay stress on pride and shame.

B. Spanish people take too much pride in themselves.

C. Attitude towards pride and shame results in Spanish happiness.

D. If you are from Spain, you are the happiest.

3. In the last paragraph, the author seems to tell us ______.

A. Poor people enjoy the same happiness as millionaires

B. the higher income one gets, the happier life he lives

C. Enough money can make us feel safe and happy

D. Average income earners live the happiest life

4.The passage mainly discusses ______.

A. cultural differences in happiness

B. reasons for happiness

C. the happiest culture

D. benefits of happiness

When you were young, ginger ale（姜味汽水）may have been a popular choice for reducing the unpleasant feelings caused by your upset stomach on the road to get to school. For years, ginger has been used to reduce the effects of nausea（作嘔）. But do you know it’s now also being looked at to fight cancer?

Scientists have discovered that ginger can kill cancerous cells in two different ways. On the one hand, ginger causes the cancer cells to “commit suicide” by destroying themselves while leaving the surrounding healthy cells untouched. Ginger can prevent the growth of diseased cells by destroying the environment they grow in. On the other hand, ginger tricks the diseased cells and causes them to fight among themselves. Researchers are now looking into one of the toughest cancers to fight. However, scientists find repeated treatment of disease by drugs can actually lose its effectiveness over time as the cancer builds up resistance（抵抗力）to the same treatment. This raises researchers’ confidence that ginger would help stop resistance from the cancer.

In a study, the cancer clearly stopped growing in the body of the mice that had been given ginger. The bad news is that such encouraging research has only been conducted on mice. The good news, however, is that it seems humans might be able to get the same benefit just by eating products with ginger and ginger root in them.

Cancer prevention and fighting abilities aren’t the only potential benefits you may get from adding a bit more ginger to your diet.

Drinking ginger ale when your stomach was upset as a child wasn’t just a placebo（安慰劑）.Numerous studies and research, including the Mayo Clinic’s strict grading system, agree that ginger has some sort of anti-nausea characteristics.

Some believe that ginger works well against nausea after operations, while others use it to reduce motion sickness such as seasickness and car sickness. The Mayo Clinic, however, advises the use of ginger only to reduce nausea during pregnancy. While more research needs to be done, early studies are very promising, especially in that small amounts of ginger don’t seem to do any harm to the mother or baby.

Other health benefits from ginger exist as well. Since ginger is often considered to be useful in warming bodies, it can improve the condition of people’s joints including knees and ankle joints. Some suggest that ginger can help cure a cough associated with the common cold. Another benefit of ginger is that it seems to have no real side effects, which is one of the main reasons it appears to be safe during pregnancy.

But for safety, you should always consult a doctor for instructions on daily use before starting, even with something like ginger that seems to have little to no side effects.

1.Why do scientists think ginger can be used to fight against cancer?

A．Ginger can destroy diseased cells in two different ways.

B．Ginger is commonly considered as a kind of pain killer.

C．Ginger warms people’s bodies and helps them recover from operations.

D．Ginger has no harmful side effects according to a large amount of medical research.

2.We can learn from the third paragraph that___________.

A．ginger works well only for warm-blooded animals

B．ginger and its root have the same effect on humans as mice

C．people are likely to gain great benefit by having ginger

D．the research on ginger is promised to be carried out only on mice

3.What is the text mainly about?

A．Ginger’s medicinal effects.

B．The benefits of ginger ale.

C．A new discovery about ginger.

D．Detailed research on ginger.

4.What will most probably be talked about following the text?

A．How to use ginger in daily life.

B．Products made from ginger.

C．Ginger’s growing environment.

D．Why ginger can warm bodies.

Teenagers who spend hours in front of the television may have a poorer diet as young adults.

A study, which included nearly 1,400 high school students, found those who watched TV for five hours or more per day had less healthy diets than peers(同齡人) five years later. Why does this happen? Should the parents take any measures?

On the one hand, people who spend a lot of time in front of the TV, especially teenagers, may snack more, and that may affect their long-term diet quality.

On the other hand, TV ads for fast food, sweets and snacks tempt teenagers to eat more of those foods. And TV time might also replace exercise time for some kids.

Lead researcher Dr. Daheia J. Barr-Anderson, of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, told Reuters Health a clear correlation between TV time during high school and diet quality in young adulthood. While the heaviest TV viewers were eating the most junk food, those who’d watched less than two hours per day had the highest intake(吸收) of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and high-calcium food. In her opinion, parents should limit and monitor TV viewing.

As far as I am concerned, children should watch no more than two hours of television per day. And parents should set a good example by eating right, being physically active and curbing their own TV time.

1.What’s the best title for this passage?

A. Teenagers’ TV Time May Affect Their Diets Later

B. People Should Keep Away from TV to Keep Healthy

C. Why Do Teenagers Like TV?

D. Parents’ Own Habits May Affect Children Later

2.What suggestion does the author give the parents?

A. They can’t do what they don’t want their children to do.

B. They must watch TV with their children.

C. They should forbid the children to watch TV.

D. They should pay attention to nutrition in diets.

3.The underlined word “ curbing” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “_________”.

A. adding B. stopping

C. controlling D. checking

4.According to the passage, heavy TV viewers tend to _________.

A. eat more fruits B. take in fewer vegetables

C. eat less junk food D. take in high-calcium food
