A new study has found that a fat cell gene may reduce the risk of colon cancer in some people.The study provldes what scientists say is the first evidence of a genetic link between a fat cell gene and colon cancer.The research could lead to better tests for the disease as well as measures to help prevent it.
Current evidence suggests a relationship between obesity,insulin resistance and colon cancer risk.The scientists say what they have found now is an area of a gene that is connected with the cancer risk.They say this area is most probably not the cause of the disease,but they think it is where the connection comes from.
The gene is involved in the formation of a hormone called adiponectin.Some people have higher levels of this hormone in their blood,____________.Higher levels have been
linked with lower rates of obesity and insulin resistance.And lower levels have been linked with higher rates.
The Journal of thM American Medical Association published the new findings last week.BorisPasche from the Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Alabama at Birmingham led the research.
Colon cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths. Every year it kills almost six hundred eighty thousand people around the world.And doctors find more than one million new cases.The disease is highly treatable if disovered early.
The research involved two studies with a total of about one thousand five hundred people.The lager of the two studies involved Nes Yorkers of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry.Coln cancer is more common in Jews of eastern European ancestry than in the general population.The other study invdVed people of different ethnicities from Chicago,Illinois.
Currently,in the United States,the general advice is for colonoscopy tests(結(jié)腸檢查)for colon cancer to begin at the age of fifty. A colonoscopy can find and remove growths before they become cancerous. But the test is invasive and can be uncomfortable.
A study last month in the New England Journal of Medicine expressde support for a test called a virtual colonoscopy.It uses X-ray and computer technology to search for growths,but cannot remove them.There are still some questions about the effectiveness of a virtual colonoscopy compared to a traditional one .But doctors hope it might appeal to people who would otherwise not be tested at all。

閱讀下面的短文,并根據(jù)短文后的要求答題(請注意問題后的字?jǐn)?shù)要求)。
[1] My daughter did an experiment for me two summers ago. She applied to job openings she’d found on a couple of big online job boards.    She mailed the applications and waited. And waited. After sending out 100 resumes(履歷表), specially addressed to each organization’s human resources(HR) manager, fewer than five HR departments took the time to reply, or acknowledged receipt.
[2] What happened?
[3] Maybe in the thirty seconds or so of attention that her resume received, each HR person made a snap decision. It seemed that 95 of them were unimpressioned.
[4] Or, maybe, out of the 300 other resumes HR had received that morning, they had already scheduled a requisite(必要的) number of interviews. Or, maybe HR simply forwarded her resume to the hiring manager who was supposed to call her for an interview.
[5] Or, maybe they thought her resume was fairly generic(一般的) and they didn’t have time to figure out if she might be a good fit, with the necessary skills, attitudes, and the desire to do the job.
[6] Most likely, the real reason why she didn’t get an interview was the last one. HR didn’t have time to figure out how she would work in their company.
[7] This happens all the time. I think most job seekers make the serious mistake of thinking that all they need to do is tell the HR department what they did in the past.
[8] That might be OK for some hiring managers, but most want to know the answer to one question: How can this applicant help us right now? If your resume does not answer that question, or sufficiently tell a story about how you may be able to help, you won’t have a shot at the job in this market.
[9] Before you can answer that question, however, you need to do some research on the company. Find out everything you can about the company, including the departments, the people, the products, markets, and the plans for the future.
[10] Information is power, and it is available quite easily. Don’t expect HR to figure out how you might fit into their organization. You _________ instead. This is the surest way to get the interview.
76.What’s the main idea of this passage?(within 20 words)
____________________________________________________________________________
77.Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one?
You should tell the HR what you can do for them in your resume and then you may be able to find a job.
____________________________________________________________________________
78. Fill in the blank in the last paragraph with proper words.(within 8 words)
____________________________________________________________________________
79.List two of the reasons why most HR managers even didn’t give the girl a reply.

Imagination is the ability to form a mental image of something that is not obtained through the senses. It is the ability of the mind to build mental scenes, objects or events that do not exist, are not present or have not happened in the past.
Everyone possesses some imagination ability. In some it may be highly developed and in others it may be displayed in a weaker form. It is shown in various degrees in various people.
Imagination is not limited only to seeing pictures in the mind. It includes all the five senses and the feelings. One can imagine a sound, taste, smell, a physical sensation or a feeling or emotion. For some people it is easier to see mental pictures, others find it easier to imagine a feeling, and some are more comfortable imagining the sensation of one of the five senses. Training of the imagination gives the ability to combine all the senses.
Imagination makes it possible to experience a whole world inside the mind. It gives you the ability to look at any situation from a different point of view, and enables one to mentally explore the past and the future. In your imagination you can travel anywhere at the speed of light without any problems. It can make you feel free, though temporarily, and only in the mind, from tasks, difficulties and unpleasant circumstances.
Imagination ha a  great role and value in each one's life. We all use it, whether consciously or unconsciously, in most of our daily affairs. We use our imagination whenever we plan a party, a trip, our work or a meeting. We use it when we describe an event, explain how to arrive to a certain street, write, tell a story or cook a cake.    Imagination is also a creative power that is used extensively in magic, creative visualization and confirmations. It is the creator of circumstances and events. It is necessary for inventing an instrument, designing a dress or a building, painting a picture or writing a book. The creative power of imagination has an important role in the achievement of success in any field.
Imagination can change your whole life. When you know how to work with it, you can make your hearts' desires come true. But if you do not recognize the importance of the power of the imagination, your life may not be as happy and successful as you would have wanted it to be. You may create and attract into your lives events, situations and people that you don't really want. This is actually what most people do, because you don't use the power of imagination correctly.
Lack of understanding of the power of the imagination is responsible for the suffering, incompetence, difficulties, failures and unhappiness people experience, some reason, most people are tending to think in a negative way. They do not expect success. They expect the worst, and when they fail, they believe that fate is against them. This attitude can be changed, and then life will improve accordingly.
Understanding how to use your imagination correctly, and putting this knowledge into practice, for your own and others' benefit, will put you on the golden path to success, satisfaction and happiness.

  Olaf Stapledon wrote a book called First and Last Men, in which he looked millions of years ahead. He told of different men and of strange civilisations(文明), broken up by long 'dark ages' in between. In his view, what is called the present time is no more than a moment in human history and we are just the First Men. In 2,000 million years from now there will be the Eighteenth or Last Men.
  However, most of our ideas about the future are really very short-sighted. Perhaps we can see some possibilities for the next fifty years. But the next hundred ? The next thousand? The next million? That's much more difficult.
  When men and women lived by hunting 50,000 years ago, how could they even begin to picture modern life? Yet to men of 50,000 years from now, we may seem as primitive(原始的)in our ideas as the Stone-Age hunters do to us. Perhaps through the spundels and ballalators, these words, which I have just made up, have to stand for things and ideas that we simply can't think of .
  So why bother even to try imagining life far in the future ? Here are two reasons. First unless we remember how short our own lives are compared with the whole human history, we are likely to think our own interests are much more important than they really are. If we make the earth a poor place to live because. we are careless or greedy(貪婪) or quarrelsome,our grand-children will not bother to think of excuses for us.
  Second, by trying to escape from present interests and imagine life far in the future, we may arrive at quite fresh ideas that we can use ourselves. For example, if we imagine that in the future men may give up farming, we can think of trying it now. So set your imagination free when you think about the future .
53.A particular mention made of Stapledon's book in the opening paragraph ____________
  A.serves as a description of human history
  B.serves an introduction to the discussion
  C.shows a disagreement of views
  D. Shows the popularity of the book
54.The text discusses men and women 50,000 years ago and 50,000 years from now in order to show that _________.
  A.human history is extremely long    B.life has changed a great deal
  C.it is useless to plan for the next 50 years
  D.it is difficult to tell what will happen in the future
55.Spundels and ballalators are used in the text to refer to _________.
  A.tools used in farming                   B.ideas about modern life
  C.unknown things in the future         D.hunting skills in the Stone Age
56.According to the writer of the text, imagining the future will _________.
  A.serve the interests of the present and future generations
  B.enable us to better understand human history
  C.help us to improve farming
  D.make life worth living

Ryan  and Lowry had been friends  since high school,  but it wasn’t until after college
that they hit on the idea of a home—care-products company.“We were shocked to learn how  toxic  cleaning  products  were,”  says  Ryan.  Why  couldn’t they  create  green products that would be just as environmentally pure as Aveda’s skin—and—hair—care lines?
When Ryan’s mom heard about the plan,she stared at him blankly: “I’ve never even seen  you  clean your room!” Not discouraged,Lowry experimented with  nontoxic ways to clean.  while  Ryan  focused on marketing.  In  February 2001,they  mixed their first four   cleaning  sprays  and  convinced the  managers  of  20  grocers to try them·  Once  they had their  approval,they tapped  friends  and  family  and pooled their  savings to  come  up  with $90,000 in seed money.
From the start,“Go big or go home’’was their mantra(口頭禪).Their first financing— that $l million—was due to be signed on September 11, 2001. By the time they got it, two months later,says Ryan, "we had$16 in the bank and personally owed$300,000·”
Seeking a national retailer(零售商)proved just as troublesome.The friends set their sights on Target,known for its trendy,affordable goods.“But Target didn’t like the product or the brand,”recalled Ryan.“We thought the deal was dead,but then a new buyer saw that even though we weren’t selling big volumes, we were  profitable, just on a smaller scale.”They won over Target.
Consumers  were  hooked  on the  natural things  and  wonderful  fragrance. Today,the partners sell 130 products in more than 8,000 stores,and taxes are over$100 million. Such  rapid  growth has  at times  stressed the  men’s  friendship. “Eric  and  I  agree on ‘what’  but  never  on‘how,’”  says Lowry.  “Although  we  are  willing to  challenge  each  other,we come up with interesting and smarter solutions.There’s little fire and ice between us·
56.The underlined word“toxic”in Paragraph 1 most probably means——·
A.poisonous    B.dirty    C.expensive   D.troublesome
57.When Ryan told his mom his plan, ___________.
A.he knew his mom was sure to support him
B.his mom asked him to clean his room
C.his mom suspected his ability
D.he was discouraged by his mom
58.We can learn:from the third paragraph that __________________.
A.Ryan and Lowry wanted to gave up and go home at first
B.their plan didn’t go smoothly at the very beginning
C.they made profit two months later after their first financing
D.$1 million was not enough as their seed money
59.The partners’cleaning products are sold very well because——.
A.the products are made of natural material and smell nice
B.their friends and family offered to use their products
C.they cooperated with a well—known national retailer
D.they convinced 20 grocer managers to try them
60.It can be inferred from the—passage that——.
A.Aveda’s skin—and—hair-care lines are not so successful as Ryan and Lowry’s
B.Target is a famous environment-friendly cleaning brand
C.The friends "cooperation with Target was very successful
D.The partners get on well with each other in their business

Research has shown that music has an important effect on one’s body and psyche (心靈). In fact, there is a growing field of health care known as music therapy, which uses music to treat diseases.
