For many people shopping is considered to be one of the favorite activities. For most of them it is just buying some new clothes or presents for close people. But there is another way for whom shopping is much more than just enjoyable activity, it is a real addiction that in many cases leads to a financial disaster, as well as it brings troubles to person’s life and family.
So why can shopping be so addictive? What are the possible signs to be aware of? And how is it possible to stop the need of spending?
“Some of the new evidence suggests that some people, maybe 10%-15%, may have a genetic preference to an addictive behavior, coupled with an environment in which the particular behavior is caused, but no one really knows why.” However, it is much better understood as to why “shopaholics” continue with their unhealthy and destructive behaviors. Individuals get pleasure from their addiction the same way as if they were under drugs.
And when is it really possible to determine whether simple shopping has crossed the border and has already turned into addiction?
Shopaholics go out and buy things much more often than other people do. They often buy things they do not need. Many shopping addicts go on shopping binges(放縱) all year long and may be forced to buy certain items, such as shoes, clothing or kitchen items. Some just will buy anything. Many times they will spend over their budget limits and get into deep financial trouble, spending well above their income. While someone else will think many times if they can afford this or that thing, shop addicts will not recognize the boundaries of a budget.
1.We can learn from the 3rd paragraph that .
A. shopping addiction is mainly caused by genetic factors
B. shopping addicts are also addicted to drugs
C. the real cause of shopping addiction is known already
D. shopaholics can’t control their unhealthy and destructive behaviors
2.The last paragraph is mainly about .
A. the destructive behaviors of shopaholics
B. the early signs of shopping addiction
C. the problems of shopaholics
D. the binge of shopaholics
3.What could be most probably discussed in the paragraph to follow the passage?
A. How to treat shopping addiction.
B. What really causes shopping addiction.
C. When shopping addiction takes place.
D. What kind of people can become shopping addicts.
4. It can be inferred from the passage that .
A. shopping addiction can’t cause serious problems
B. shopping addicts only want enjoyable activities through buying
C. it’s not a good idea to let a shopping addict pay by credit cards
D. shopping addiction can spread among different people

A glass a day keeps obesity at bay. Alcohol has always been thought to cause weight gain because of its high sugar content, but new research suggests a glass a day could form part of a diet. Looking at past studies they found that, while heavy drinkers do put on weight, those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight.
A spokesman for the research team at Navarro University in Spain says, “Light to moderate alcohol intake, especially of wine, may be more likely to protect against, rather than promote, weight gain”. The International Scientific Forum on Alcohol Research reviewed the findings and agreed with most of the conclusions, particularly that current data do not clearly indicate if moderate drinking increases weight.
Boston University’s Dr. Harvey Finkel found that the biologic mechanisms (生物學(xué)機制) relating alcohol to changes in body weight are not properly understood. His team pointed out the strong protective effects of moderate drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes(糖尿病),which relate to increasing obesity. Some studies suggest that even very obese people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers.
The group says alcohol provides calories that are quickly absorbed into the body and are not stored in fat, and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods. They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks, taking into consideration drinking patterns and including the past tendency of participants to gain weight.
For now there is little evidence that consuming small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one’s risk of becoming obese. What’s more, a study three years ago suggested that reveratrol, a compound present in grapes and red wine, destroys fat cells.
1.The passage is mainly for those ______.
A. who produce wine B. who are eager to lose weight
C. who go on a diet D. who have a drinking habit
2.The underlined phrase “in moderation” in the first paragraph means ______.
A. properly B. carefully
C. excitedly D. frequently
3.Why has alcohol been thought to cause weight gain?
A. Because its calories are stored in fat.
B. Because it is rich in sugar.
C. Because it changes drinking patterns.
D. Because it increases the risk of diabetes.
4.What can we learn from the passage?
A. The specific roles of different types of alcoholic drinks are very clear.
B. Resveratrol is proved to increase the risk of becoming fat.
C. The research found moderate drinking has a strong protective effect.
D. Current data clearly show that moderate drinking increases weight.
5.What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?
A. How to do some easy experiments.
B. How to prove the finding mentioned above.
C. How to make wine in a healthy way.
D. How to reduce the calories contained in wine.

Each Sunday, people can hear the music of the Mission Dolores Basilica in San Francisco. The Spanish missionaries(傳教士)built the church in 1791. It was the start of a special kind of neighborhood: the Mission District.
The area is a place with a long and varied history. One community member says that it’s important for people to understand the many levels of history in the neighborhood. He feels that this knowledge is a big part of understanding what it means to be a real San Franciscan.
One of the most interesting parts of the district is its people. Over the years, immigrants have come to the area from Ireland, Germany, and Italy. But the most recent immigrants are mainly from Latin America. It’s easy to see the style that these recent additions give to the neighborhood. You can see it in the art on the walls, taste it in the food, and hear it in the music!
Juan Pedro Gaffney, the director of the Spanish Choir(唱詩班)of San Francisco, says that the people there share the pain and the happiness of their friends and family members and that music has always been a basic part of cultural identity in the district. He feels that the music of the district is colorful and lively.
But it isn’t just its music that’s colorful and lively. Its art is full of life as well.
The local art community stays close to the area’s culture and tradition. A local arts organization often leads people on walks through the district. They visit streets like Balmy Alley, which is famous for its murals (壁畫). Even though the meanings behind the murals are always changing, they are still very powerful. One artist explains that they are fighting for fairness in the community and to help the environment through murals. Apparently, they’re something the community likes.
Many of these artists feel that the district is a successful neighborhood where new immigrants are welcome. “People see that they’re not so different from each other,” says one artist. “There are a lot of things that bind(捆綁)the immigrants through culture and tradition.”
1.The underlined phrase “this knowledge” in Paragraph 2 refers to ____________.
A. having memories of the Spanish missionaries
B. knowing the history of the Mission Dolores Basilica
C. realizing what it means to be a real San Franciscan
D. understanding the many levels of history in the neighborhood
2.The author shows the multi-culture of the Mission District from the aspects of ____________.
A. literature and sports B. music and murals
C. buildings and clothes D. customs and festivals
3.It can be inferred from the passage that in the Mission District ____________.
A. immigrants from different cultures live in harmony
B. Latin American music and foods are the most attractive
C. the Spanish Choir stands out in the competition of different cultures
D. new immigrants have to give up their own culture to be welcome
4.What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Mission Dolores Basilica
B. A Special Type of Neighborhood
C. Music of the Mission District
