B.Germany,Nicaragua,Cuba.C.Nicaragua,Japan,Cuba. D.Cuba,Japan,Nicaragua.BOur first ex pression is “in the red”. It is another way of saying that a business is losing money. In the past, numbers in the financial (金融的) records of a company were written in red ink to show a loss (损失).A business magazine recently published a report about a television company. The report said the company was still in the red, but was able to cut its loss from the year before. A profit by a business is written in black numbers. So a company that is “in the black” is making money.Another financial e xpression is “run on the bank”. That is what happens when many people try to get all their money back from a bank. A “run on the bank” usually happens when people believe there is a danger that a bank may fail or close down. Newspaper reports about a bank crisis(危机) in Russia used that expression. They said the government acted because of the fear that the crisis would cause a run on the bank.“Day trading” is a new expression about a system that lets investors (投资者) trade directly in an electronic market system. The system is known as NASDAQ, short for the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation. It was the first completely computerized stock market (股票市场). Day trading companies offer a desk and a computer system to an investor who wants to trade. Investors must provide fifty thousand dollars or more for the trading company to pay for the stocks they buy. Thousands of other investors do day trading at their homes.A day trader keeps a watchful eye on stock prices. When he sees a stock rise in price, he makes use of the computer to buy shares of the stock. If the stock continues to rise in price in the next few minutes, the day trader sells out the shares quickly to make a small profit. Then he looks for another stock to buy. If a stock goes down, he may sell his shares and accept the loss.The idea is to make a small profit many times during the day. Many day traders may break down in a week or so. Only about thirty percent people succeed in earning enough money from their efforts to continue day trading.21*cnjy*com24. What does the passage mainly talk about?( )A.

Science.CA medical study has shown that excess(过度的)coffee drinking could cause heart attacks in people who do not metabolize(使新陈代谢)caffeine fast enough.【来源:21cnj*y.co*m】The study,published recently in the Journal of the American Medical Association,says an enzyme(酶)that metabolizes caffeine in the liver works differently in some people,depending on the make-up of the gene.Individuals who have a slow version (版本)of the enzyme are at a greater risk(风险)of a heart attack when they drink more coffee.The risk had something to do with a person's age and how many cups of coffee he drinks.The team from the University of Toronto in Canada studied 4,024 people living in coffee-rich Costa Rica between 1994 and 2004,of whom half suffered non-fatal(非致命的)heart attacks.They found slightly more than half had the slow version of the gene,while the rest had the fast form.Two to three cups of coffee a day increased the possibilities of a heart attack by 36 percent for those with the slow-acting gene and four or more cups a day lifted it by 64 percent.But those under 50 who had the fast version of the gene had a lower risk of heart disease,even with four or more cups a day.Those with the fast-acting gene who drank two to three cups of coffee a day had 22 percent reduced possibilities of having a heart attack,but drinking four or more cups a day only lessened the risk by 1 percent. Scientists recommend limiting coffee consumption(消耗量)to within four cups a day.28.People who have a slow version of the enzyme________.( ) 名师原创作品A.are in danger when they drink coffee B.are living in coffee-rich Costa RicaC.have the slow version of the gene D.can not drink four or more cups of coffee a day 29.The example of Costa Rica the author presented in the passage proves that________.( )A.the heart attack in Costa Rica is really serious B.the heart problem has something to do with drinking coffeeC.people in Costa Rica cannot metabolize caffeine in the liver D.more than half people have the slow version of gene30.It can be concluded that the passage is most probably written for________.( )A.doctors who study heart disease B.specialists who offer medical careC.old people who have the slow version of the gene D.those who love drinking coffee every day 31.What is the best title for this passage?( )A.Coffee and heart attacks B.Gene and heart disease C.Caffeine and enzyme D.Reasons for heart problemsDWe were traveling to the Caribbean with our three kids aged 12, 7 and 4. Being from Chicago, we were all in need of a little sun and sand after an especially cold and long winter.21·世纪*教育网Before the trip, my eldest child asked if we could consider getting him a lifeproof case for his iPhone. He thought it would be fun to take pictures and videos of his brother and sister underwater in the pool. That made sense to us, and we agreed that it could make great memory of good time. We bought the case for him.Down to vacation we went. Snap! On went the lifeproof case. We performed the suggested water test, and into the pool he went. Pow! That was the end of the phone. Water immediately leaked (渗入) into it and the phone was never turned on again.Now, this could be a post about what a poorly-designed product the case is, but in fact, that is not what I’m writing about.Actually, what truly surprised us was what happened to our 12-year-old over the course of the next seven days of our vacation. Aside from the initial(最初的) five minutes after the phone died, our son never mentioned his phone again.Instead of his usual plugged-in state, he spent much of the vacation reading books, playing silly games with his siblings and talking to us at dinner. Normally when we’re on vacation and he and his siblings are done with eating, he’ll leave the table to text friends or check sports scores. But with no phone, there was no pull t o keep in touch with his friends or to look at the latest posts. Instead, our almost-13-year-old played tag with his4-year-old sister, chased iguanas (鬣鳞蜥) with his 7-year-old brother and entertained them with games whilewe finished our meals. At the end of the trip, when we asked him about the lack of phone, he admitted it wasnice to have a break from the constant chatting and keeping in touch with friends.I’m not say ing I intentionally hope his phone dies again, but it does give us time to reflect as to whetheror not we should make the kids leave their cell phones at home as part of the spring break contract. Or at least we should severely curtail phone usage on vacation.32. Why did the a uthor’s eldest son want a lifeproof case for his iPhone?( )A. To put his phone away.B. To make his phone beautiful.C.
