17．It all began with a stop at a red light．
    Kevin Salwen was driving his 14-year-old daughter，Hannah，back from a sleepover in 2006 While waiting at a traffic light，they saw a black Mercedes Coupe on one side and a homeless man begging for food on the other．
"Dad，if that man had a less nice car，that man there could have a meal，"Hannah protested． The light changed and they drove on，but Hannah was too young to be reasonable．She pestered （糾纏）her parents about inequity， insisting that she wanted to do something．
"What do you want to do？"her mom responded．"Sell our house？"
Warning!Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager．Hannah seized upon the idea of selling the luxurious family home and donating half the proceeds to charity，while using the other half to buy a more modest replacement home．
Eventually，that's what the family did．The project-crazy，impetuous （魯莽的） and utterly inspiring-is written down in detail in a book by father and daughter scheduled to be published next month："The Power of Half．"It's a book that，frankly，I'd be nervous about leaving around where my own teenage kids might find it．An impressionable child reads this，and the next tiling you know your whole family is out on the street．
At a time of enormous needs in Haiti and elsewhere，when so many Americans are trying to help Haitians by sending everything from text messages to shoes，the Salwens offer an example of a family that came together to make a difference-for themselves as much as the people they were trying to help．In a column a week ago，It described neurological （神經(jīng)學的）evidence from brain scans that unselfishness lights up parts of the brain normally associated with more primary satisfaction．The Salwens'experience confirms the selfish pleasures of selflessness．
Mr．Salwen and his wife，Joan，had always assumed that their kids would be better off in a bigger house．But after they downsized，there was much less space to retreat to，so the family members spent more time around each other．A smaller house unexpectedly turned out to be a more family-friendly house．

50．The best title for the passage should be"D"．
    A．The Less，the Better                 B．An Expected Satisfaction
    C．Something We Can Live Without        D．Somewhat Crazy but Inspiring
51．What does the underlined word"inequity"most probably mean in Paragraph 3？A
 A．Unfairness                       B．Satisfaction
C．Personal attitude                 D．Reasonable statement
52．What does the underlined sentence"Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager．"（in paragraph 5）means？D
A．Never give a quick answer to an idealistic teenager
B．Unless a child is realistic，never give an answer immediately
C．Give an answer if the child is reasonable
D．Don't respond to a child's demands firmly without consideration
53．What can we learn from the last paragraph？B
A．The Salwens regretted selling their house．
B．The relationship between the family members of the Salwens is much closer．
C．Small houses can bring happiness．
D．The Salwens intend to buy another big house．
54．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage？C
A．Mercedes Coupe is only an ordinary car which is quite cheap．
B．Unselfishness has nothing to do with people's primary satisfaction．
C．Hannah asked her parents to do something charitable and they sold their house．
D．The writer's children asked him to sell their house．

12．Turning the lights out or wearing a blindfold while eating could be a quick way to lose weight，according to scientists．The simple trick works because it stops diners eating for pleasure rather than for calories．It also triggers （引發(fā)） a part of the brain that is worried that unseen food may go bad．
An experiment by the University of Konstanz，in Germany，found that people who were blindfolded consumed nine percent fewer calories before they felt full，compared to those who could see．They also vastly overestimated how much they had eaten because they could not see how much was left on the plate．Blindfolded volunteers estimated they had eaten 88percent more than they actually had．
Scientists believe that not seeing food on the table also allows the body to know when it is full in real time rather than remembering past experiences where it might have taken a full plate to feel full．
In the experiment，50 people were blindfolded and 40were allowed to see their food．All were told not to eat within two hours of the experiment．They were then given three 95g bowls of chocolate ice cream and invited to eat for 15minutes．Their bowls were taken away and the remaining ice-cream weighed，while the participants were quizzed on how much they thought they had eaten．
On average the group who could see ate 116g while the blindfolded groups ate 105g．However，the blindfolded group believed they had eaten 197g while compared with 159g for the non-blind volunteers．They were also asked how pleasant the ice-cream tasted and the blindfolded group rated lower than those who could see．
"The experienced pleasure of eating was significantly lower in the blindfolded group．Not seeing the food might have decreased the appetite．Sight plays an important role in the eating experience and in the overall dining experience．"
Previous studies have shown that the visual influence of food plays a large part in the taste．While restaurants that allow diners to eat in the dark state that it triggers other senses，in fact eating in darkness is likely to taste far milder than usual．
63．With the lights out，diners eat less partly becauseD．
A．they want to quickly finish their meals
B．they trust their feelings more than ever
C．they focus more on fun than the calories
D．they worry about the quality of the food
64．We can learn from the passage that the blindfolded groupB．
A．spent a much longer time eating the same food
B．believed they ate more than they really did
C．depended on past experiences to feel full
D．thought the food tasted better than usual
65．The last two paragraphs tell us thatA．
A．diners are likely to lose their appetite eating in darkness
B．senses rather than sight play an important role in the taste
C．findings of this experiment differ from the previous studies
D．restaurants benefit a lot from allowing diners to eat in the dark
66．The main purpose of the passage is toC．
A．provide statistics related to eating in the dark
B．offer reasons for people to eat in the dark areas
C．inform the readers of the result of an experiment
D．persuade the readers to lose weight in a new way．

19．More than four in 10cancers-600，000in the UK alone-could be prevented if people led healthier lives，say experts．The population of the UK is about 63，000，000．
Latest figures from Cancer Research UK show smoking is the biggest avoidable risk factor，followed by unhealthy diets．It advises people to live healthily，limit alcohol intake and do regular exercise．
According to the figures from 2007to 2011，more than 300，000cases of cancer recorded were linked to smoking．A further 145，000were linked to unhealthy diets containing too much processed food．Obesity contributed to 88，000cases and alcohol to 62，200．Sun damage to the skin and physical inactivity were also contributing factors．
Professor Max Parkin，a Cancer Research UK researcher，says："There's now little doubt that certain lifestyle choices can have a big influence on cancer risk，with research around the world all pointing to the same key risk factors．
"Of course everyone wants to enjoy some extra treats during the Christmas holidays so we don't want to ban beef pies and wine but it's a good time to think about taking up some healthy habits for 2015．
"Leading a healthy lifestyle can't guarantee someone won't get cancer but  we can stack the odds in our favour by taking positive steps．"
Public Health England says a healthy lifestyle can play an important role in reducing cancer risk．It says campaigns such as Smokefree，Dry January and Change4Life Sugar Swaps all aim to raise public awareness．It's important that we continue to make progress in noticing cancer earlier and improving treatments，but helping people understand how they can reduce their risk of developing cancer in the first place remains important in dealing with cancer．

28．Which of the following is the third biggest avoidable cancer factor？A
A．Obesity．
B．Alcohol intake．
C．Unhealthy diets．
D．Physical inactivity．
29．According to Professor Max Parkin，A．
A．it's OK to drink wine during festivals

C．unhealthy food should be completely banned
D．a(chǎn) healthy lifestyle will protect us from cancer
30．By saying the underlined words in Paragraph 6，Professor Max Parkin means we canD．
A．help others
B．improve our lives
C．discover cancer early
D．decrease our cancer risk
31．What's the main idea of the text？B
A．Most cancers are caused by smoking．
B．Cancer is greatly linked to our lifestyle．

12．In a time when a dangerous number of people are overweight，many people seem to have forgotten the most important way to keep healthy and slim---exercise．And as a new study carried out on mice in the lab has shown，exercise done early in life can rward you in your adult years．
A team of researchers at the University of California studied the effects of early exercise on adult physical activity，body mass and eating．They found that early-age exercise in mice has positive effects on adult levels of voluntary exercise in addition to reducing body mass．
"These results may have an effect on the importance of regular physical education in elementary and middle schools，"said Theodore Garland，a professor of biology，who led the research project．"If kids exercise regularly through their school years，then they may be more likely to exercise as adults，which could have far-reaching poitive effects on human health and well-being．"
Although the positive effects of early-life exercise lasted for only one week，it is important to note that one week in the life of a mouse is the same as about nine months for humans．"Our results suggest that any positive effects of early-life exercise on adult eercise will need to be kept up if they are to be long-lasting．"
His team of researchers found，too，that all mice that had access to early exercise were lighter in weight than non-exercised mice．
Garland explained that，in general，exercise will stimulate appetite sooner or later．However，it is possible that certain types of exercise，done for certain periods of time or at certain light levels，might not stimulate appetite much，if at all，at least in some individuals．
"If we could understand what sorts of exercise these might be，then we might be able to tailor exercise recommendations in a way that would bring the benefits of exercise without increase in appetite，leading to a better chance of weight loss，"he said．

28．How long do the positive effects of early-life exercise last for a mouse？B
A．One day       B．One week     C．One month      D．Nine months
29． Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article？A
A．More study is needed to better understand the effects of different types of exercise．
B．Early-life exercise has life-long positive effects on people
C．Kids should be encouraged to o exercise as early as possible to ensure physical health．
D．The new study on mice mainly focused on how exercise affects appetite．
30．The underlined word"stimulate"in the last but one paragraph is closest in meaning toB．
A．decline         B．improve      C．vary            D．harm
31．What is the article mainly about？D
A．New ways to fight against being overweight．
B．The positive effects of mice
C．The possible risks of doing exercise
D．The positive effects of early-life exercise．
