一、阅读理解（共1道小题，共25.0分）1. (错误) People have been talking about health for a long time because people know theimportance of it. People's understanding of health also becomes deeper with the progress inscientific research. Recently the term "health" has come to have a wider meaning than it usedto. It no longer means just the absence of illness. Today, health means the well-being of yourbody, your mind and your relationship with other people. This new concept of health is closelyrelated to another term----quality of life. Quality of life is the degree of overall satisfaction that a person gets from life.Why has the emphasis of health shifted from the absence of disease to a broader focus on the quality of a person's life？One reason for this has to do with the length and conditions of life that people can now expect. Medical advances have made it possible for people today to live longer, healthier lives. Imagine for a moment that you were born in the year 1900. You could haveexpected on average to live until about the age of 47. In contrast, if you were born in the year1999, you could expect to live to the age of 75.1. ______leads to people's deeper understanding of health.A. Common knowledgeB. Progress in scientific researchC. Better conditions of livingD. Quality of life2.

The emphasis of health has shifted nowadays because_____.A. people enjoy better conditions of living and they can live longerB. people pay more attention to their physical health, not their mental healthC. people have realized the importance of mental well-beingD. people are inspired by medical advances4. We can infer from the passage______.A. nowadays the emphasis of health has a broader focus because ofimprovements in the quality of foodB. the overall quality of people's lives improved greatly in the 20th centuryC. those who never fall ill are the truly healthy peopleD. those who were born before 1900 could not have lived until now5.

一、阅读理解（共1道小题，共25.0分）1One day in 1965, when I was a library worker at school, a teacher came to me. She had a student who finished his work before all the others and needed something more difficult for him to do. “Could you help me in the library?” she asked. I said, “Send him along.”Soon, a golden-haired boy appeared. “Do you have a job for me?” he asked. I told him about a system for sorting books. He picked up the idea immediately. Then I showed him some cards for some unreturned books that though had been returned but not recorded. Maybe some books were put on wrong places. He said, “Is it a kind of a detective job?” I answered yes, and then began his work.He had found three books with wrong card by the time his teacher opened the door and said, “Time for rest!” he argued for finishing the finding job, but the teacher won.The next morning, he arrived early,“I want to finish these books,” he said. At the end of the day, when he asked to work with me more often, it was easy for me to say yes.After a few weeks I found a note on my desk, inviting me to dinner at the boy’s home. At the end of a pleasant evening, his mother declared that the family would be moving to another school area. Her son’s first concern, she said, was leaving the library. “Who will find the lost books?” he asked. When the time came, it was hard to say goodbye. Though at the beginning he had seemed an ordinary boy, his strong feeling of interest had made him different.Do you know who he is? This boy became a great man of the information age: Bill Gates.Why did the teacher go to the library to find a job for Bill Gates?1Because the teacher found the librarian quite busy.1Because Bill Gates wanted to find a job.1Because Bill Gates finished his study quickly and had more free time than the others.1Because the library needed a new worker.What do you know from the passage?1Library work was very difficult for Bill Gates.1Bill Gates did his job without any difficulty.1The librarian was too busy to have a rest.1His mother hoped that Bill Gates would stay for his job.The sentence “He picked up the idea immediately” means that_____.1he learned that system quickly1he collected that system quickly1he lifted up that system quickly1he improved that system quicklyWhat was Bill Gates expected to do in the library?1Finding the lost cards.1Learning the system.1Helping the worker with everything in the library.1Finding books with wrong cards.How did Bill Gates feel when his family would move to another school area?1Sad.1Pleasant.1Worried.1Interested.试题分值：25.0得分：[5, 5, 5, 5, 5]2提示：[1]C.细节题。
