19.Too much eating.Too many unhealthy foods.Too many advertisements for food.Too little activity.Different explanations are offered for America's weight problem-a problem increasingly shared by other countries.Almost one-fifth of American children and teenagers are overweight.
Schools have been urged to increase physical education,an important tool for public health.And many have.Yet now comes a study showing an increase in the number of injuries in"phys ed"class.Injuries increased one hundred fifty percent between nineteen ninety-seven and two thousand seven.
The study involved injuries treated in hospital emergency departments.Only two percent were serious.
The researchers did not try to identify the causes of the increase,but they have some theories.
Lara McKenzie from Ohio State University was the lead researcher.She says one possibility is a decrease in the number of school nurses during the period they studied.For example,a two thousand four study showed that the number of school nurses nationally failed to meet federal guidelines.Schools without a nurse on duty may be more likely to send an injured child to a hospital.
Another possible reason for more injuries is a change in the traditional idea of physical education.This"New P.E."expands the kinds of sports that are taught.But activities that some schools offer now,like rock climbing and skateboarding,can also expand the risks,says Cheryl Richardson.She is with the National Association for Sport and Physical Education.
Also,she says not all states require P.E.teachers to be specially trained.Untrained teachers could be less likely to recognize unsafe conditions.
Cheryl Richardson also points to one of the study's findings-that injuries are often the result of contact with a person or a structure.This tells her that the teachers were not giving each student enough space to move around safely.
Six activities produced seventy percent of all injuries:running,basketball,football,volleyball,soccer and gymnastics.
The researchers say larger class sizes are another possible reason for the increase in injuries.Larger classes can mean less supervision.The National Association for Sport and Physical Education says twenty to thirty students in a P.E.class should be the limit.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS)

78.Many schools deal with the problem that more children are overweight byincreasing physical education.
79.What's the result of expanding the kinds of sports taught in school?The risks of getting injured increase/expand..
80.P.E.teachers without special training are more likely toneglect unsafe conditions.
81.After reading the passage,could you give at least two suggestions to an American school on how to reduce injuries in"phys ed"classes?Increasing the number of school nurses; avoiding high risk activities.

18.Generosity and kindness does not mean that you give only when you have a lot or after fulfilling all your needs,but in fact you can still give when you yourself are struggling.Generosity literally means willingness and liberty in giving away one's own money,time,talent,etc.sincerely without any personal gain as shown in the following story.
Mahatma Gandhi went from city to city,village to village collecting funds for the Charkha Sangh.During one of his tours he addressed a meeting in Orissa.After his speech a poor old lady got up.She was gone with age,her hair was grey and her clothes were in rags.The volunteers tried to stop her,but she fought her way to the place where Mahatma Gandhi was sitting.
"I must see him,"she insisted.She went up to Mahatma Gandhi and touched his feet.Then from the folds of her sari(卷布),she brought out a copper coin and placed it at his feet.Mahatma Gandhi picked up the copper coin and put it away carefully.The Charkha Sangh funds were under the charge of Jamnalal Bajaj.He asked Mahatma Gandhi for the coin but Mahatma Gandhi refused.
"I keep cheques worth thousands of rupees (盧比) for the Charkha Sangh,"Jamnalal Bajaj said laughingly,"yet you won't trust me with a copper coin.""This copper coin is worth much more than those thousands,"Mahatma Gandhi said."If a man has one hundred thousand rupees and he gives away a thousand or two,it doesn't mean much.""But this coin was perhaps all that the poor lady possessed.She gave me all she had.That was very generous of her.What a great sacrifice she made.That is why I value this copper coin more than ten millions of rupees."

81.What does generosity really mean according to the passage?(No more than 14 words)It means willingness and liberty in giving away things without any personal gain.
82.What did Gandhi make a speech in Orissa for?(No more than 12 words)He made a speech for collecting funds for Charkha Sangh.
83.Why did the old lady insist seeing Gandhi?(No more than 10 words)Because he wanted to give him the copper coin.
84.Why did Gandhi refuse to give the copper coin to Jamnalal Bajaj?(No more than 10 words)Because Gandhi thought it was valuable..

17.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
The X-Factor (英國偶像),Britain's got talent(英國達人),American Idol(美國偶像)and Super girl,TV talent shows are popular all over the world.
There are many reasons for that.To start with,the show can make the contestant(選手) famous overnight.Susan Boyle was an ordinary English woman before she appeared on Britain's Got talent,in which she sang"I Dreamed a Dream".The video clip (片段) of her performance was viewed more than 50 million times within a few weeks.Second,the show offers a good opportunity to display one's talents.Third,everybody has a fair chance to be involved in the show regardless of the age and background.Even if you can't perform in the show,you can vote for your favorite contestant through cell phones and the Internet.Fourth,the fun and humorous style also appeals to young people.Last but not least,the modern media such as TV and the Internet contributes greatly to its rapid popularity.
However,many people express concerns about TV talent shows.They argue that the TV talent show misleads the young people and makes them believe that they can become famous overnight.Some think the show only creates entertainers rather than artists,because many winners have little idea about real music and acting.What's worse,some judges even humiliate (羞辱) and laugh at contestants.One contestant from American Idol committed suicide because she couldn't stand the rejection and humiliation.Even the winners suffer.Susan Boyle suffered a nervous breakdown soon after the show,because she was unable to deal with the pressure.
Many countries have realized the problems and taken some steps to regulate the show.The UK requires that contestants younger than 16 not be allowed to participate.China bans TV talent shows to be broadcast during the prime time.In the USA,some insulting judges are punished.

For many reasons,giving money is not the best (52)Bto an outstretched hand.The greatest gift is time and respect.To look beggars in the eye and smile,thus acknowledging their existence,is a small thing.Putting your hand into another's outstretched hand and grasping it (53)Afor a moment is also a small thing.But these are important.Everyone needs (54)A,to be seen as worthy of being (55)D,to feel appreciated and loved.And I believe that everyone is worthy and worth knowing.

15.Embroidering(刺繡)

13.Parents seem to be looking in an unusual place for inspiration for baby names this year-their smartphones and iPads.
The number of babies named after Apple products has soared-Apple,Siri and Mac have all risen in popularity as baby names this year,according to parenting advice site BabyCenter's annual report.
Siri-the name of the app (計算機應用程序) on iPhones-has risen by 5% on the list of girl names in popularity,for parents surely like the pronunciation of it,and the name Apple,though still an unusual choice,has risen by 15% for girls,which has climbed 585places up BabyCenter's chart this year.Meanwhile,for boys,the name Mac has jumped 12%.
The huge success of iPhone and iPad seems to be behind the new trend-BabyCenter describes the youngsters as'iBabies',"The smart phones may just be the best parenting tool since diapers (紙尿褲) and some parents are showing their respect to industry leader Apple in their choice of baby names,"says Linda Murray,the site's global editor in chief.
Space-themed baby names also rose in popularity,lb is perhaps inspired by the publicity around NASA's Mars Curiosity Rover."It seems space was a huge naming inspiration for parents this year:Sky,Star,Luna,Skylar,Heaven,Stella,and Mars all flew higher than last year,"says Miller.

12.The early lack of exposure to science,technology,engineering and mathematics (STEM) can be harmful to achieving gender (性別)balance in these fields.It begins when we are young and continues throughout our time in high school.
While at home,girls generally don't get to experience the level of exposure or encouragement in STEM fields that their male counterparts do.It is often subtle,but it's the first hurdle that faces and confuses so many women.Boys,on the other hand,get on their path,and are encouraged to do so,generally earlier than girls.For example,boys are more often given science sets as toys,which spark an interest in these subjects.
In school 3boys are often pushed to take the more challenging math and science classes.So if we want to attract the best and brightest minds into the fields that will advance us as a people?a country,and a planet,we can no longer look to only half of the population.Young girls cannot possibly consider opportunities they do not know exist.If girls are not exposed to certain subject and career paths,they are highly unlikely to choose to follow them in college.
Our bias(偏見)toward girls9either from families or from schools,is so rooted in our culture that we often don't even recognize it.Although the situation Has changed greatly in the past 20or 30years,there is still a sense that girls aren't as good at math 9for instance 9even though there is almost no evidence to support such a belief.
It is important that as a society we deal with gender stereotypes long before young people are faced with a decision to declare or choose a major in college.Without making efforts to break them,we are limiting the potentials of our youth,both male and female.Providing the necessary resources,exposure,and encouragement would help young women understand that their gender shouldn't determine the career path they choose,and that pursuing a STEM career does not make them less feminine.

63.According to the passage?not many girls grow to enter STEM fields becauseC.
A.girls are not as good at STEM as boys
B.girls do not like to take science classes
C.girls get fewer chances to know about STEM
D.girls seldom survive the high pressure positions

A.show women's potentials in STEM fields
B.praise women's contributions to STEM fields
C.describe the present gender bias in STEM fields

11.Apathy
Apathy is a state of lacking interest,enthusiasm or concern.(71)B They may also exhibit unfeelingness.Christians have condemned apathy as a lack of love and devotion to God and His works.
(72)F Also meaning"absence of passion"in Greek,the term"apatheia"was used by the Stoics (禁欲主義者) to show a desirable state of indifference towards events and things which lie outside one's control.
The modern concept of apathy became well known after World War I,when it was called"shell shock."Soldiers,living in the trenches among the bombing and gun fires,saw the battlefields filled with dead and wounded companions.(73)E In 1950,US novelist Passes wrote"Apathy is one of the characteristic responses of any living being when it is subjected to something too tense or too complicated to deal with."US philosopher Robert M.Hutchins summarizes the concerns about political indifference.He claims that the death of democracy is not likely to be a sudden murder from ambush (埋伏).(74)A
There may be other things contributing to a person's apathy.Activist Dave Meslin argues that apathy is often the result of social systems actively blocking engagement and involvement.He describes various barriers that prevent people from knowing how or why they might get involved in something.(75)C These include:political media that make it difficult for potentially interested people to find relevant information,and media descriptions of heroes as"chosen"by outside forces rather than self-motivated.He suggests that we redefine social apathy as a result of poorly designed systems that fail to invite others to participate.

A.It will be a slow process of fading away from apathy and indifference.
B.Apathetic people may lack a sense of purpose or meaning in their life.
C.He focuses on designed choices that deliberately or indeliberately exclude people.
D.The word"dispassion"is used for"apatheia",so as not to confuse it with apathy.
E.So they gradually developed a sense of disconnected numbness to normal social interaction.
F.Although the word"apathy"originates from"apatheia",it is important not to confuse the two terms.
G.Author John McManamy argues apathy is a psychological problem for some depressed people,in which they get a sense that"nothing matters".
