When Bethany Renfree was 26 years old, she and her three young daughters lived in a low-income apartment building in Jackson, California.Like most of the tenants, Renfree was a single mother.Life was tough.
One cold morning, as Renfree shuffled into the kitchen, she looked at the sink piled high with pots and pans and dishes.“These pots were caked in grease and burnt because I actually didn’t really know how to cook very well at that time.So I’d always be burning our pans with eggs or other things,” Renfree said.
Her 18-month-old twins sat in their high chairs, and her youngest was just a month old.When her eyes returned to the sink, a feeling of hopelessness washed over her.
“I just couldn’t bring myself to do those dishes.And I couldn’t look at them any longer.It was a reminder of how overwhelmed I felt in my own life,” Renfree remembered.
So she grabbed a garbage bag and filled it up with all the dirty dishes.She dragged it outside to the trash, but it was full, so she left it on the very edge of the garbage can.Then she packed up her kids and left for the day.
“When I got back that evening, it was dark,” Renfree said.“But as we were coming in, I kind of kicked something.It was a box.”
Renfree brought the box inside and set it on the table.She had no idea what was inside.“It was my pots, pans and dishes.They were all clean, shining and sparkling,” Renfree remembered.“And a little note popped out, a handwritten note on a yellow piece of paper, ‘I’ve been there before, you will make it, I promise you.’”
To this day, Renfree doesn’t know which of her neighbours washed and returned her dishes.She assumes it was one of the other single moms in the building.“I am so grateful to have learned that we are surrounded by kindness and understanding even in our hardest moments.”
24.What made Bethany Renfree feel hopeless?( ?。?br/>A.Being a single mother. B.Three young daughters.
C.Dirty pots and pans and dishes. D.Living in a low-income building.
25.How did Bethany Renfree plan to deal with her dishes?( ?。?br/>A.Throw them away. B.Clean them by herself.
C.Sell them at a lower price. D.Ask someone to wash them.
26.How would Bethany Renfree react to the box with pots and pans?( ?。?br/>A.Curious and doubtful. B.Surprised and moved.
C.Confused and worried. D.Sorry and disappointed.
27.What message does the author try to convey by writing the text?( ?。?br/>A.Doing the chores can be easy.
B.All difficulties can be overcome.
C.Kindness occurs everywhere in our lives.
D.We should stay strong facing difficulties.

It’s not just how much exercise you do but how much exercise you think you do that really determines your fitness.
Take hotel housekeepers for example.Just by doing their daily work they are getting plenty of exercise, walking up and down hotel corridors (走廊), pushing heavy trolleys, cleaning baths, and changing sheets.But a study in 2007 found they didn’t count this as exercise.Then, Alia Crum from Stanford University told half these hotel housekeepers just how much exercise they were getting and why this benefited them.
Four weeks later, this group of housekeepers had lost weight and had lower blood pressure.Once they viewed work as an opportunity to exercise, it had more of a physical impact on them.Perhaps they began working more energetically or maybe it was down to the placebo effect (安慰效應(yīng)).
All this reminds me of the finding from 2003 that our perceptions about age link to health outcomes.As part of the Whitehall Ⅱ study, 7,000 civil servants were asked when they think middle age ends and old age begins.When Hannah Kuper and Professor Sir Michael Marmot analysed the data they found that the people who thought old age began at the age of 60 or less were more likely to have serious heart problems later on than those who gave the answer 70 years or more.
The answer to this simple question seems to tell something about people’s own personal health status.Maybe they answer that old age starts at 60 because they themselves feel old due to poor health.Or maybe they have a sense that they don’t have long left and this puts them off exercising, which in the long-run affects their health.Or perhaps they feel more stressed and anxious about old age and this has an impact on their health.
28.What did Alia Crum do to the housekeepers?( )
A.She shared their worries. B.She taught them a lesson.
C.She told them a simple truth. D.She gave them some advice.
29.What made the housekeepers improve their health?( )
A.Working harder. B.Taking more exercise.
C.Getting more relaxation. D.Viewing their work differently.
30.What did the Whitehall Ⅱ study find?( )
A.People were afraid of old age. B.People lived longer than before.
C.Feeling young had positive effects. D.Feeling old helped people live longer.
31.What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refer to?( ?。?br/>A.Old age. B.A lack of exercise.
C.Feeling they’re old. D.Worrying about old age.

The World Health Organization, WHO, reports cancer is on the increase around the world.But it says preventive measures can save the lives of millions of cancer sufferers over the next 10 years.
Since 2010, nearly every country in the world has seen an increase in the number of cancer patients.WHO reports one in six people will develop cancer in their lifetime.At least 10 million people will die from the disease every year.
If the current trend continues, WHO warns, new cancer cases will rise by 60 percent by the year 2040.In low-and middle-income countries, they will rise by more than 80 percent.
Andre Ilbawi is WHO’s technical officer in cancer control.He says more people are dying from cancer in poorer countries because they lack the services and cancer control measures that richer countries have.
Ilbawi said that controlling the disease does not have to cost a lot.The WHO report, he explained, shows that by investing in cancer services, governments can save 7 million lives by 2030.“And that is at the cost of $2.70 per person in low-income countries and $8.15 per person in upper middle-income countries,” Ilbawi said.WHO says cancer does not have to be a death sentence.
Elisabete Weiderpass is the director of the International Agency for Research on Cancer.She says there have been great improvements in research on cancer prevention and treatment.These measures are successfully keeping many people alive who otherwise would have died.
Weiderpass said that preventive policies can work in powerful ways to reduce not only cancer numbers and death rates, but also the social and economic inequality (不平等) in cancer cases.
In its report, WHO describes a series of measures proven to help in preventing new cancer cases.For example, it notes that tobacco-related diseases are responsible for 25 percent of cancer deaths.Deciding not to smoke, it says, can save billions of dollars and millions of lives.
32.How many people will develop cancer in their lifetime?( ?。?br/>A.About 6 percent. B.About 10 percent.
C.About 16 percent. D.About 18 percent.
33.What should we do to control cancer according to Andre Ilbawi?( )
A.Change our lifestyle. B.Improve cancer services.
C.Develop new technology. D.Research on new medicines.
34.What does Elisabete Weiderpass mainly stress?( ?。?br/>A.The role of medical care. B.The importance of treatment.
C.The importance of prevention. D.The role of government policies.
35.What would be the best title for the passage?( )
A.Invest Money to Control Cancer B.Take Measures to Deal With Cancer
C.Cancer Is Threatening Our Lives D.Cancer Is Increasing But Not Deadly

Jackson, a 6th grader, was heartbroken about his grandpa’s diagnosis.He and his grandfather spent a lot of time together.Grandpa taught him things like how to play golf and how to drive a boat.When Jackson found out this Papa had been diagnosed with cancer, his world collapsed.
Grandpa Rick loved styling his hair but with the chemotherapy (化療) treatments, his hair started getting really thin.Jackson knew his grandpa felt pretty disheartened about losing his hair.So, he decided to do something to cheer him up and make him feel less alone.He couldn’t make cancer go away, but he could support his grandpa during his treatments.He decided to shave his own head and told his grandpa he wouldn’t be alone, and that he wouldn’t be the only one losing his hair.
However, at school the next day, Jackson’s friends had a different attitude to his hairstyle.Some of his classmates teased and bullied him about his shaved head.One student called him “baldy” and another said “you look like having a cancer”. At first, Jackson felt enraged at the comments, but his anger turned to sadness later on.
When Jackson got home from school, without saying anything, he locked himself in his room.His mother knocked at the door, asking what had happened.The door finally opened.Out he came.With disappointment on his face, he murmured,“My classmates made fun of my haircut.Nobody in the world could know my sorrow.” After saying these, he buried his face in his mother’s chest and burst out crying.The mother felt angry and disappointed with the kids at school, too.
She decided to reach out to Principal (校長) Tom Hadley and tell him about her son being bullied.When he returned her call, he asked if she still had the clippers (理發(fā)剪) Jackson cut his hair with.Sue said “yes”, unsure of what he was going to do with this.Tom then asked if Jackson could bring the clippers to school the next day.

W:According to experts, nearly 25% of Britons, including children, are overweight. The government is worried and it is looking for ways to settle the problem.Many 11-to 14-year-olds already do cookery at school and from 2011, the government has been making this a must.It hopes that this will encourage people to cook instead of eating ready meals, fast food and snacks.All secondary school students will have cooking lessons for one hour a week for one term.They will learn to use simple, fresh stuff and simple recipes to prepare healthy, tasty meals.And schools are setting up cookery clubs called “Let’s Get Cooking” throughout the country.The clubs will give more children the chance to learn to cook after school.Head teachers worry about the equipment they will need for the lessons. About 15% of schools do not have kitchens and there are not enough cookery teachers. The government promises to train 800 cookery teachers and to give schools £2.5 million a year to help children from poor families.

30.C 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段可知,這項研究發(fā)現(xiàn),有些人認為老年從60歲開始,還有些人認為老年從70歲開始,而前者患心臟問題的概率更高。

33.B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段可知,Andre Ilbawi認為,要控制癌癥的增加,最重要的是在有關(guān)預(yù)防癌癥的服務(wù)方面增加投入。
34.C 推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后三段可知,在應(yīng)對癌癥問題上,Elisabete Weiderpass主要強調(diào)了預(yù)防的重要性。
35.D 標題歸納題。綜合全文可知,本文主要告訴我們兩方面的內(nèi)容:一方面癌癥病人不斷增加,另一方面癌癥不再是致命的疾病。因此D項為本文最佳標題。

第一節(jié)
Nowadays people tend to take exercise and keep fit by making use of mobile phone apps.I am no exception and my favourite fitness app is Keep.
With the mission of making the world move, Keep is the most downloaded fitness app in China.The app can record your movement route, record your fitness data, and provide a variety of fitness training courses.More importantly, it contains a social networking service so that users can share exercise routines with each other.
I have benefited greatly from the app indeed.Since I began to use it, not only have I lost 10 kilos, but I have also become much healthier physically and mentally.What’s more, I have made many friends who have similar interests and hobbies.
第二節(jié)
The following day, the principal organised a gathering with all students at the school. He said,“Jackson shaved his head to back his grandpa who has been diagnosed with cancer.But someone laughed at him.” He then asked the students to raise their hands if they’d ever known someone with cancer.Almost everyone in the room raised their hands.Hadley continued,“It is wrong for us to judge somebody else’s reaction to that, and we can do better.In standing up for Jackson and showing my support for his grandpa, I’ve offered to let Jackson shave my head today.”
Hadley then sat in a chair in front of all the students while Jackson shaved his head. The students seemed moved.The principal ended his speech by saying,“Support each other, love each other.We’re a family, that’s why we’re here.We’re family — that’s what we do; we support each other, good times and bad.I want to see more good times than bad, but I’m here either way.” It was these touching words that all the students in the room would never forget.

W:According to experts, nearly 25% of Britons, including children,
are overweight. The government is worried and it is looking for ways to
settle the problem.Many 11-to 14-year-olds already do cookery at school
and from 2011, the government has been making this a must.It hopes that
this will encourage people to cook instead of eating ready meals, fast
food and snacks.All secondary school students will have cooking lessons
for one hour a week for one term.They will learn to use simple, fresh
stuff and simple recipes to prepare healthy, tasty meals.And schools are
setting up cookery clubs called “Let’s Get Cooking” throughout the
country.The clubs will give more children the chance to learn to cook after
school.Head teachers worry about the equipment they will need for the
lessons. About 15% of schools do not have kitchens and there are not
enough cookery teachers. The government promises to train 800 cookery
teachers and to give schools £2.5 million a year to help children from
poor families.

When Bethany Renfree was 26 years old, she and her three young
daughters lived in a low-income apartment building in Jackson,
California.Like most of the tenants, Renfree was a single mother.Life
was tough.
One cold morning, as Renfree shuffled into the kitchen, she looked
at the sink piled high with pots and pans and dishes.“These pots were
caked in grease and burnt because I actually didn’t really know how to
cook very well at that time.So I’d always be burning our pans with eggs
or other things,” Renfree said.
Her 18-month-old twins sat in their high chairs, and her youngest
was just a month old.When her eyes returned to the sink, a feeling of
hopelessness washed over her.
“I just couldn’t bring myself to do those dishes.And I couldn’t
look at them any longer.It was a reminder of how overwhelmed I felt in
my own life,” Renfree remembered.
So she grabbed a garbage bag and filled it up with all the dirty
dishes.She dragged it outside to the trash, but it was full, so she left it
on the very edge of the garbage can.Then she packed up her kids and left
for the day.
“When I got back that evening, it was dark,” Renfree
said.“But as we were coming in, I kind of kicked something.It was a
box.”
Renfree brought the box inside and set it on the table.She had no idea
what was inside.“It was my pots, pans and dishes.They were all
clean, shining and sparkling,” Renfree remembered.“And a little
note popped out, a handwritten note on a yellow piece of paper,
‘I’ve been there before, you will make it, I promise you.’”
To this day, Renfree doesn’t know which of her neighbours
washed and returned her dishes.She assumes it was one of the other single
moms in the building.“I am so grateful to have learned that we are
surrounded by kindness and understanding even in our hardest
moments.”

It’s not just how much exercise you do but how much exercise you
think you do that really determines your fitness.
Take hotel housekeepers for example.Just by doing their daily work
they are getting plenty of exercise, walking up and down hotel corridors
(走廊), pushing heavy trolleys, cleaning baths, and changing
sheets.But a study in 2007 found they didn’t count this as
exercise.Then, Alia Crum from Stanford University told half these hotel
housekeepers just how much exercise they were getting and why this
benefited them.
Four weeks later, this group of housekeepers had lost weight and
had lower blood pressure.Once they viewed work as an opportunity to
exercise, it had more of a physical impact on them.Perhaps they began
working more energetically or maybe it was down to the placebo effect
(安慰效應(yīng)).
All this reminds me of the finding from 2003 that our perceptions
about age link to health outcomes.As part of the Whitehall Ⅱ study, 7,
000 civil servants were asked when they think middle age ends and old age
begins.When Hannah Kuper and Professor Sir Michael Marmot analysed
the data they found that the people who thought old age began at the age of
60 or less were more likely to have serious heart problems later on than
those who gave the answer 70 years or more.
The answer to this simple question seems to tell something about
people’s own personal health status.Maybe they answer that old age
starts at 60 because they themselves feel old due to poor health.Or maybe
they have a sense that they don’t have long left and this puts them off
exercising, which in the long-run affects their health.Or perhaps they feel
more stressed and anxious about old age and this has an impact on
their health.

28. What did Alia Crum do to the housekeepers?( )
A. She shared their worries.
B. She taught them a lesson.
C. She told them a simple truth.

解析: 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段內(nèi)容可知,Alia Crum只是
告訴那些酒店的工作人員,他們所從事的酒店工作也屬于鍛煉
身體。
29. What made the housekeepers improve their health?( ?。?br/>A. Working harder.
B. Taking more exercise.
C. Getting more relaxation.
D. Viewing their work differently.
解析: 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段可知,一旦酒店工作人員將
自己的日常工作視為一種鍛煉,他們的身體狀況就得到了改善。
30. What did the Whitehall Ⅱ study find?( ?。?br/>A. People were afraid of old age.
B. People lived longer than before.
C. Feeling young had positive effects.
D. Feeling old helped people live longer.
解析: 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段可知,這項研究發(fā)現(xiàn),有些
人認為老年從60歲開始,還有些人認為老年從70歲開始,而前者
患心臟問題的概率更高。
31. What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refer
to?( )
A. Old age.
B. A lack of exercise.
C. Feeling they’re old.
D. Worrying about old age.
解析: 代詞指代題。根據(jù)最后一段可知,作者認為,這些人
也許會因為自己變老而感到焦慮和壓力,從而對他們的健康產(chǎn)生
不利影響。

The World Health Organization, WHO, reports cancer is on the
increase around the world.But it says preventive measures can save the
lives of millions of cancer sufferers over the next 10 years.
Since 2010, nearly every country in the world has seen an increase
in the number of cancer patients.WHO reports one in six people will
develop cancer in their lifetime.At least 10 million people will die from the
disease every year.
If the current trend continues, WHO warns, new cancer cases will
rise by 60 percent by the year 2040.In low-and middle-income countries,
they will rise by more than 80 percent.
Andre Ilbawi is WHO’s technical officer in cancer control.He says
more people are dying from cancer in poorer countries because they lack
the services and cancer control measures that richer countries have.
Ilbawi said that controlling the disease does not have to cost a lot.The
WHO report, he explained, shows that by investing in cancer
services, governments can save 7 million lives by 2030.“And that is at
the cost of $2.70 per person in low-income countries and $8.15 per person
in upper middle-income countries,” Ilbawi said.WHO says cancer does
not have to be a death sentence.
Elisabete Weiderpass is the director of the International Agency for
Research on Cancer.She says there have been great improvements in
research on cancer prevention and treatment.These measures are
successfully keeping many people alive who otherwise would have died.
Weiderpass said that preventive policies can work in powerful ways to
reduce not only cancer numbers and death rates, but also the social and
economic inequality (不平等) in cancer cases.
In its report, WHO describes a series of measures proven to help in

How to Write a Composition
Choosing a subject.

you are free to choose your own subjects.

complete sentence.37.( ?。?br/>Taking notes.

in a confusing manner: some may overlap, some may be
unimportant, some may be irrelevant, some may be
indefinite.Never mind.Note them all down.39.( ?。?Do not stop
until no more ideas come.
Making an outline.
When you have taken enough notes about your subject, consider
each to see whether it is closely connected with your subject.40.

heads, if they do not actually set them down on paper, before they
begin to write.

Jackson, a 6th grader, was heartbroken about his grandpa’s
diagnosis.He and his grandfather spent a lot of time together.Grandpa
taught him things like how to play golf and how to drive a boat.When
Jackson found out this Papa had been diagnosed with cancer, his world
collapsed.
Grandpa Rick loved styling his hair but with the chemotherapy (化
療) treatments, his hair started getting really thin.Jackson knew his
grandpa felt pretty disheartened about losing his hair.So, he decided to
do something to cheer him up and make him feel less alone.He couldn’t
make cancer go away, but he could support his grandpa during his
treatments.He decided to shave his own head and told his grandpa he
wouldn’t be alone, and that he wouldn’t be the only one losing his
hair.
However, at school the next day, Jackson’s friends had a
different attitude to his hairstyle.Some of his classmates teased and bullied
him about his shaved head.One student called him “baldy” and another
said “you look like having a cancer”. At first, Jackson felt enraged at
the comments, but his anger turned to sadness later on.
When Jackson got home from school, without saying anything, he
locked himself in his room.His mother knocked at the door, asking what
had happened.The door finally opened.Out he came.With disappointment
on his face, he murmured,“My classmates made fun of my
haircut.Nobody in the world could know my sorrow.” After saying
these, he buried his face in his mother’s chest and burst out crying.The
mother felt angry and disappointed with the kids at school, too.
She decided to reach out to Principal (校長) Tom Hadley and tell
him about her son being bullied.When he returned her call, he asked if
she still had the clippers (理發(fā)剪) Jackson cut his hair with.Sue said
“yes”, unsure of what he was going to do with this.Tom then asked if
Jackson could bring the clippers to school the next day.

參考范文:
The following day, the principal organised a gathering with all
students at the school. He said,“Jackson shaved his head to back his
grandpa who has been diagnosed with cancer.But someone laughed at
him.” He then asked the students to raise their hands if they’d ever
known someone with cancer.Almost everyone in the room raised their
hands.Hadley continued,“It is wrong for us to judge somebody else’s
reaction to that, and we can do better.In standing up for Jackson and
showing my support for his grandpa, I’ve offered to let Jackson shave
my head today.”
Hadley then sat in a chair in front of all the students while Jackson
shaved his head. The students seemed moved.The principal ended his
speech by saying,“Support each other, love each other.We’re a
family, that’s why we’re here.We’re family — that’s what we
do; we support each other, good times and bad.I want to see more good
times than bad, but I’m here either way.” It was these touching words
that all the students in the room would never forget.
