17、ts40 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 current medical knowledge.We all enjoy our freedom of choice and do not like to see

18、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 so desire, we can smoke, drink excessively, refuse to wear seat belts, eat whatever foods we want, a

19、nd 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 choices relative to health often cause a difficulty. As one example, a teenager may k

20、now the facts relative to smoking cigarettes and health but may be pressured by friends into believing it is the socially accepted thing to do.A multitude of factors, both inherited and environmental, influence the development of health-related behaviors, and it is beyond the scope of this text to d

21、iscuss 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 unhealthy choices. In discussing the morals of personal choice, Fries and Crapo drew a com

22、parison. They suggested 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 preserving both the quality and quantity of life, personal health choices should reflect

23、 those behaviors that are associated with a statistical probability of increased vitality (活力) and longevity (寿命).41 The concept of personal choice concerning health is important because_.（A）wrong decisions could lead to poor health（B） it helps raise the level of our medical knowledge（C） it is essen

24、tial to personal freedom in American society（D）personal health choices help cure most illnesses42 To “live a completely sedentary life-style“ (Para. 2) in the passage means_.（A）to “live a decent life“（B） to “live an inactive life“（C） to “live a life of vice“（D）to “live a life with complete freedom“4

25、3 Sound personal health choice is often difficult to make because_.（A）few people are willing to trade the quality of life for the quantity of life（B） people are usually influenced by the behavior of their friends（C） current medical knowledge is still insufficient（D）there are many factors influencing

26、 our decisions44 To knowingly allow oneself to pursue unhealthy habits is compared by Fries and Crapo to_.（A）deliberately ending one s life（B） improving the quality of one s life（C） limiting one s personal health choice（D）breaking the rules of social behavior45 According to Fries and Crapo, sound he

27、alth choices should be based on_.（A）personal decisions（B） statistical evidence（C） friends opinions（D）society s laws45 By adopting a few simple techniques, parents who read to their children can greatly increase their children s language development. It is surprising but true. How parents talk to the

28、ir children makes a big difference in the children s language development. If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading, the child s language skills increase.A study was done with 30 three-year-old children find their parents. Half of the children participated i

29、n the experimental study: the other half acted as the control group. In the experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in which they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes-or-no questions. For example, the parent should ask, “What is the doggie doing?“ ra

30、ther than “Is the doggie running away?“ The parents in the experimental group were also instructed in how to help children find answers, how to suggest alternative possibilities and how to praise correct answers.At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ in measures of language devel

31、opment, but at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group showed 5. 5 months ahead of the control group on a test of verbal expression and vocabulary. Nine months later, the children in the experimental group still showed an advance of 6 months over the children in the control grou

32、p.46 Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?（A）Children who talk a lot are more intelligent.（B） Parents who listen to their children can teach them more.（C） Active children should read more and be given more attention.（D）Verbal ability can easily be developed with proper methods.47

34、ask children about?（A）Do you see the elephant?（B） Is the elephant in the cage?（C） What animals do you like?（D）Shall we go to the zoo?49 The difference between the control group and the experimental group was_.（A）the training that parents received（B） the age of the children（C） the books that were rea

35、d（D）the number of the children50 The best conclusion we can draw from the passage is that_.（A）parents should be trained to read to their children（B） the more children read, the more intelligent they will become（C） children s language skills increase when they are required to respond actively（D）child

36、ren who read actively seem six months old50 In a survey conducted by research firm Harris Interactive, 71% of Americans said that spending extra money on travel during the holiday season is worthwhileso long as it affords them time with family and friends. But just because traveling may be the right

37、 thing to do, that doesn t mean it has to be the expensive thing to do. Traveling involves many hidden costs that, once you re aware of them, are easy to spotand even easier to elminate.To start, consider transportation fees. For example, if youre driving, fill up the gas tank before traveling on th

38、e highway, where its much costlier, says Clarky Davis, a personal finance expert. And make sure your car is in good condition by checking your heating vents, keeping up with routine maintenance and ensuring your tires are properly inflated, all of which help the car achieve favorable fuel economy. F

39、urthermore, not only does a tow car(救援车) cause inconvenience: it also means extra costs.For those opting to fly, first, be aware of how much it costs to check a bag. Most airlines are charging for every checked bag by weight, but prices vary from carrier to carrier. If you can manage to pack everyth

40、ing into a carry-on, youll save at least $ 15. Brooke Ferencsik, a travel expert, suggests considering secondary airports when booking your flight. These airports often are less crowded and frequently offer cheaper tickets.And when it comes to your actual destination, dont assume that hotels are goi

41、ng to cut back on fees simply because they re desperate to draw customers. “They wont be adding or increasing fees, but they won t be decreasing them either,“ says Ferencsik. The best defense against extra fees is to read about the hotel s rates online, before you make a reservation. “ Be aware of s

42、urcharges for everything from housekeeping to groundskeeping to use of the in-room safe,“ says Ferencsik. Some hotels even install a sensor(传感器 ) within the mini bar, charging guests for simply touching the items, let alone eating or drinking them.“From airlines to hotels to rental cars, they ve all

43、 got hidden fees you need to be aware of,“ says Ferencsik. “Do your homework and ask questions. “51 It is found that 71% of Americans regard it as worthwhile to_.（A）spend money on souvenirs while traveling with family and friends（B） accept hidden costs while traveling with family and friends（C） trav

44、el with family and friends during the holiday season（D）travel with family and friends so as to please them52 How can fuel economy be improved?（A）By filling up the gas tank off the highway.（B） By considering transportation fees wisely.（C） By avoiding the inconvenience of a tow car.（D）By keeping your

47、 make travelling enjoyable（C） economize on holidays（D）avoid hidden cost on a trip55 A very interesting and important development in science is a device called laser. A laser is a machine which produces a light beam. The light produced by a laser is a very special kind of light. The light, called a l

48、aser beam, is powerful and can be made to do many things. The laser was first developed in 1960, about more than half a century ago.There are many different uses for lasers and several different types have been developed. Some use gases to produce the light beam. The gases are heated and cooled, and these processes cause the gases to produce energy in the form of light. One special point of lasers is that the light beam can be stored. If the stored light is then suddenly let go, it is extremely powerful. The light from a laser beam can be used either by storing it and letting it go sud
