A particular danger was thought to exist in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, king of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit(优点) of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War II. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家), encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.24. The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because .A. they lived healthily in a dirty environmentB. They believed disease could be spread in public bathsC. they considered bathing as cause of skin diseaseD. they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay in25. Which of the following best describes Henry IV’s attitude to bathing?A. CuriousB.ApprovingC. AfraidD. Uninterested26. How does the passage mainly develop?A. By following the order of time.B. By making comparison.C. By providing examplesD. By following the order of importance.27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passages?A.To stress the role of dirt.B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To call attention to the danger of dirt.D. To present the change of views on dirt.3.Want to get thin? Eat more fruit and vegetables —they're a low­calorie (热量) way of filling up, right? It depends which ones you eat. Eating starchy (含淀粉的) vegetables such as corn and potatoes was linked to weight gain. Eating more high­fibre, lower­glycemic (低血糖的) vegetables was associated with weight loss. Lower­glycemic foods do not raise blood sugar levels as much as higher ones.The study from Harvard University looked at changes in the intake of specific fruit and vegetables recorded from 133,468 US men and women over 24 years. It took into account other lifestyle factors that affect weight, such as smoking, amount of sleep, hours of watching television and exercise. Dr Monica L Bertoia, the lead author, says that, in America, the most common choices of fruit and vegetables are orange juice and potatoes. “There are many fruits and vegetables that may be better choices for the prevention ofweight gain, such as apples, pears, berries and non­starchy vegetables，” she says.The idea of eating more fruit and vegetables to lose weight only works if you eat less of something else — all calories count. A study last year looking at previous research on weight loss and increased fruit and vegetable intake in more than 1,200 people, found that people who didn't reduce their calorie intake overall did not lose weight.Different fruit and vegetables have different qualities. So if you want high­fibre, low­glycemic fruit, go for blueberries and avocados (油梨). Strawberries are low on fibre but good on the low­glycemic index (指数), as is grapefruit — unless you pour sugar on it. Pears and apples come out well, even though they have a high­glycemic index —their higher fibre, which is good for weight loss, may compensate. For vegetables, try tofu, cauliflower and sweet potatoes or yams (山药) rather than potatoes. But remember, they all still have calories.28．In losing weight, what does Bertoia think of Americans' choice of fruit?A．She is all for it.B．She thinks highly of it.C．She thinks nothing of it.D．She partly accept it.29．According to the text, what is the best way to lose weight?A．Taking in fewer calories.B．Eating more fruit and vegetables.C．Stopping smoking and watching TV.D．Choosing one special fruit or vegetable.30．The underlined word “compensate” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “________”．A．do harm B．go downC．make up D．get improved31．The text is most likely to be taken out of a(n) ________.A．food advertisement B．technology reviewC．education program D．science report4.An Australian company，Smart Car Technologies，has developed a system that lets drivers know when they're speeding. When the technology becomes commercially available（可利用的），it could help overspeed drivers avoid tickets and also save lives. The company that developed the product hopes to persuade Australian government agencies to put the technology into use in their automobiles.The product，called Speed Alert，links real­time location data and speed obtained with the help of GPS to a database of speed limits stored in a driver's PDA or mobile phone. The setup of the product does not need to be connected to a car's speedometer. In fact，it is entirely convenient. It will also work with newer phones and PDAs that have built­in GPS receivers. If a driver exceeds the speed limit，the speed is shown and an alert sounds.Michael Paine，an Australian vehicle design engineer and traffic safety consultant，was employed to analyze the product. He told Live Science that his colleagues in the road safety field are “very enthusiastic”about what they're now calling “intelligent speed alert”．Other research，according to Paine，shows that 40 percent of all traffic deaths involve speeding. There is also a potentially controversial future use：“Since the system is so convenient，it would be easy to make it a requirement for teenage drivers to always use a speed alert device when driving，”Paine said.“The syste m even has the ability to record speeding violations(违反)，so parents can monitor their teenage drivers.”The product will soon go on sale in Sydney.32. What's the purpose of the new product?A．To inform us of the new car system.B．To limit certain drivers to safe driving.C．To popularize the built­in car system.D．To introduce some improvement in cars.33. The second paragraph mainly talks about ．A．the functions of GPS in carsB．how the product worksC．the project of the built­in productD．why the system becomes popular34. Which of the following is TRUE of Speed Alert according to Michael Paine?A．Most of the traffic deaths can be avoided.B．The product will not be available for adults.C．The system will excite some teenage drivers.D．Speeding violations can be easily found out.35. What can be the best title of the passage?A．Speed Alert and Its Future Use.B．Progress in Car­making Science.C．New In­Car Device against Speeding.D．Warning for Adventurous Drivers.二、未分类(共2题)1.

And now scientists can tell us just why it’s so important. Accor ding to a study carried out at Imperial College London, UK, ski pping the first meal of the day not only means you eat more at lunch, but also that your brain wants to find more unhealthy f oods.The study suggests that there is a special part of our brain cal led the orbitofrontal cortex (眶额皮层), which plays an important part in making choices about wh at we eat. It is used for identifying the taste of food, especially when skipping breakfast. It is more likely to target high-calorie foods when you’re on an empty stomach.Scientists did an experiment on this. Dr Tony Goldstone from Imperial College London, scanned (扫描) the brains of 21 men and women, around the age of 25. O n the first day, these people skipped breakfast before the sca ns. On the second day, they had cereal (谷物), bread and jamas breakfast. After the scan on both days, they had their lunch .When the volunteers had skipped breakfast, they ate around 20 percent more at lunch, compared with days when they hadeaten breakfast. Their brain scansalso showed the orbitofrontal cortex was especially responsiv e to high-calorie foods. “We believe that bit identifies the value of foods – how pleasant, how delicious something is,” Goldstone told T he Guardian.33.
