For years scientists have asked thems

19、elves this question. No animals laugh and smileonly human beings do. So does laughing help us to live longer? The answer seems to lie in that smiling and laughing help us to become less worried and calm, preventing illnesses that are caused by stress. Laughing is really the best medicine. But if you

20、 re unhappy, it cant do you any good to smile, can it? That s not true. It is clear that smiling works just in the same way whether you feel like smiling or not. Scientists in California asked a group of students to act five different feelings: happiness, sadness, anger, surprise and fearjust using

21、their faces. Changes in the heart rate, blood pressure and temperature were recorded. Most of the feelings they acted didn t cause changes, but when the students smiled, their heart rate and their blood pressure went down. That happened even though they were only acting! So even if we feel sad insid

22、e, smiling seems to make us feel better. Now, what makes us laugh? It seems that the answer to the question is far from simple. Everyone likes jokes, but we dont laugh at the same ones. It depends largely on how old we are. There are some jokes, for example, that children love but older people might

23、 not find funny.（分数：10.00）(1).In the first paragraph, the word “stress“ can be best explained as “_“.（分数：2.00）A.surprise and fearB.work and dutyC.happiness and sadnessD.pressure and worry(2).Which of the following statements is TRUE based on the passage?（分数：2.00）A.Laughing helps us to live ten years

25、ow laughing and smiling are connected with healthB.comparing human beings with animalsC.finding out if any research has been done about laughingD.the degree to which laughing and smiling are helpful(4).The passage tells us that smiling and laughing_.（分数：2.00）A.have nothing to do with one s heart rat

26、eB.do one no good when one is sadC.lower ones blood pressureD.lower one s body temperature(5).According to the author, _.（分数：2.00）A.it is rather complicated to answer the question “Why do we laugh?“B.it is really simple to answer the question “Why do we laugh?“C.it is not necessary to answer the que

27、stion “Why do we laugh?“D.scientists have already answered the question “Why do we laugh?“The concept of personal choice in relation to health behaviors is an important one. An estimated 90 percent of all illnesses may be preventable if individuals would make sound personal health choices based upon

28、 current medical knowledge. We all enjoy our freedom of choice and do not like to see it restricted when it is within the legal and moral boundaries of society. The structure of American society allows us to make almost all our own personal decisions that may concern our health. If we do desire, we

29、can smoke, drink excessively, refuse to wear seat belts, eat whatever foods we want, and live a completely sedentary life-style without any exercise. The freedom to make such personal decisions is a fundamental aspect of our society, although the wisdom of these decisions can be questioned. Personal

30、 choices relative to health often cause a difficulty. As one example, a teenager may know the facts relative to smoking cigarettes and health but may be pressured by friends into believing it is socially accepted thing to do. A multitude of factors, both inherited and environmental, influence the de

31、velopment of health-related behaviors, and it is beyond the scope of this text to discuss all these factors as they may affect any given, individual. However, the decision to adopt a particular health-related behavior is usually one of personal choices. There are healthy choices and there are unheal

32、thy choices. In discussing the morals of personal choice, Fries and Crapo drew a comparison. They suggest that to knowingly give oneself over to a behavior that has a statistical probability of shortening life is similar to attempting suicide. Thus, for those individuals who are interested in preser

33、ving both the quality and quantity of life, personal health choices should reflect those behaviors that are associated with a statistical probability of increased vitality(活力) and longevity(寿命).（分数：10.00）(1).The concept of personal choice concerning health is important because_.（分数：2.00）A.wrong deci

34、sions could lead to poor healthB.it helps raise the level of our medical knowledgeC.it is essential to personal freedom in American societyD.personal health choices help cure most illnesses(2).To “live a completely sedentary life-style“ (Para. 2) in the passage means_.（分数：2.00）A.to “live a decent li

35、fe“B.to “live an inactive life“C.to “live a life of vice“D.to “live a life with complete freedom“(3).Sound personal health choice is often difficult to make because_.（分数：2.00）A.few people are willing to trade the quality of life for the quantity of lifeB.people are usually influenced by the behavior

36、 of their friendsC.current medical knowledge is still insufficientD.there are many factors influencing our decisions(4).To knowingly allow oneself to pursue unhealthy habits is compared by Fries and Crapo to_.（分数：2.00）A.deliberately ending one s lifeB.improving the quality of one s lifeC.limiting on

37、e s personal health choiceD.breaking the rules of social behavior(5).According to Fries and Crapo sound health choices should be based on_.（分数：2.00）A.personal decisionsB.statistical evidenceC.friends opinionsD.society s lawsMany families in the United States have a larger income now than ever before

38、, but people are finding it difficult to make ends meets anyway. Almost everyone is wondering, “What happens to all my money? I never seem to have anything left to put away. “ Why isn t a dollar worth as much as it used to be? One dollar is always worth the same amount, that is, 100 cents. But the v

39、alue of a dollar is how much it can buy. The value of money depends on the cost of living. Economists say that the cost of living is the money that a family must pay for the necessities of life such as food, housing or rent, clothes and medical expenses. For many years now, the cost of living has in

40、creased greatly, so the value of the dollar has decreased. When a dollar, has a low value, you cannot buy as many things with it. No one fully understands why the cost of living keeps increasing, but economists believe that workers and producers can make prices go up. As workers earn more money, the

41、y have more money to spend, so they demand more goods. If there is a great demand for certain goods, the prices of these goods go up. At the same time, if there s a shortage of goods, the price also goes up. For example, if everyone wants to buy more and more gas, the price of gas goes up. When comp

42、anies withhold gas from buyers, they can also make the price of gas go up. Families need to know what happens to their money. They need to make their income meet the cost of living, so many people plan a family budget. A budget is a list of monthly expenses. If your expenses add up to more than your

43、 income, you must find ways to save money. Maybe you re spending too much on entertainment. Or if you re spending too much on clothes, you may want to sew your own clothes. Budgeting helps you spend your money wisely as the cost of living increases.（分数：10.00）(1).What has troubled many families in th

44、e United States?（分数：2.00）A.A not-large-enough income.B.Nothing is left over to put away.C.The increasing cost of living.D.A shortage of certain goods.(2).Why does the cost of living keep increasing?（分数：2.00）A.There are always shortages of goods.B.The workers are getting lower and lower pay.C.The gov

46、ll go up if more goods are produced.(4).According to the passage, when people find it hard to make ends meet, they need to _.（分数：2.00）A.find ways to save money.B.do extra work to earn more moneyC.try some other means of making moneyD.raise a protest against the high cost of living(5).Budgeting helps

47、_.（分数：2.00）A.one to make his income meet the cost of livingB.the government to battle the rising cost of livingC.merchants to produce more goodsD.the workers to earn more moneyMost people around the world are right-handed. This also seems to be true in history. In 1799, scientists studied works of a

48、rt made at different times from 1500 B. C. to the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the world s population is left-handed. Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that a person s two hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the left hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain. T
