How long you live has a lot to do with your environment and lifestyle, but exceptional(特別的)long life may have even more to do with your genes. For the first time, researchers have discovered a genetic recipe(基因譜)that accurately predicts who may live to 100 and beyond.
Analysis shows that 90% of the participants who lived to 100 had at least one of the signature genetic clusters(標志基因組). Dr. Thomas Perls at the Boston University School of Medicine said, “We realize this is a complex genetic puzzle. There is a long way for us to go to understand how the integration(融合)of these genes—not just with themselves but with environmental factors—is playing a role in this long life puzzle.”
Perls has studied many factors that contribute to long life, and he is the first to acknowledge that living longer isn’t likely to be simply a matter of genes. His previous work has shown, for example, that among most elderly people who live into their 70s and 80s, about 70% can owe their long life to environmental factors such as not smoking; eating a healthy, low-fat, low-calorie diet; and remaining socially engaged and mentally active throughout life.
It seems clear that those who live extremely long are benefiting from a special DNA. In fact, Perls believes that the older a person gets, the more likely it is that his or her genes are contributing to those extended years.
小題1:Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?

A．Most long-living people have special long-life-related genes.

B．Ninety percent of the participants lived to 100 years of age.

C．All the long-living people have only one signature genetic cluster.

D．Scientists know how the integration of the genes helps people live long.

小題2: Perls may most likely agree that .

A．most people living extremely long benefit from not smoking

B．living longer just depends on certain genetic recipes

C．environmental factors play an important role in long-living

D．being mentally active has nothing to do with living an old age

小題3: Which of the following is FALSE according to the text?

A．Remaining socially engaged helps a person to live long.

B．A genetic recipe can accurately predict who may live to 100 and beyond.

C．Perls is the first to think living longer is just a matter of genes.

D．The older he gets, the more likely the genes contribute to his extended years.

小題4:Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A．Genes May Predict Who Lives to 100	B．Environment And Genes
C．Genes, the Secret of Long Living	D．Lifestyle And Genes

小題1:A
小題2:C
小題3:C
小題4:A

試題分析：人的壽命和什么有關呢？波士頓大學的Thomas Perls博士指出除了人的居住環境、健康低脂、低碳的飲食，積極的心態和有規律的鍛煉外，人的基因也在人的壽命中起著重要作用。而且一個人越長壽，他的基因就起的作用就越大。
小題1:A細節理解題。從文章首段but exceptional(特別的)long life may have even more to do with your genes.可知大多數人的壽命和基因有關，所以A選項正確。
小題2:C細節理解題。根據文章第三段His previous work has shown, that among most elderly people who live into their 70s and 80s, about 70% can owe their long life to environmental factors判斷Perl認為百分之七十到八十的人長壽和環境因素有關，所以C選項正確。
小題3:C 細節理解題。根據文章第三段中的he is the first to acknowledge that living longer isn’t likely to be simply a matter of genes.可知C選項內容錯誤。
小題4:A主旨大意題。作者在文章首段提出研究人員發現基因譜能準確預測哪些人能夠長壽，然后就此展開詳細敘述，由此可知最佳題目應該是Genes May Predict Who Lives to 100，故A選項正確。

Encouraging early reading skills can build a path to a lifelong love of reading and can help your child get a head start in school. While reading to your child is still the most important thing you can do to build reading skills, there are many techniques that can help.
Make reading fun. Play games with your child as you read. Many traditional children's games can be adapted to encourage reading skills.
While reading or during play, tell your child, "I spy with my little eye, something that begins with the letter "b". Help the child find something on the page or in the room that begins with that letter. For example, “I see a barn.” This can also be used to teach beginning letter sounds.Ｉspy with my little eye something that begins with the sound “s”. Help the child find a word that begins with the "s" sound.
In this variation on the popular game, instruct the child that, "Simon says, point to something that starts with the letter "n". The child can then find an object in the room or a body part, such as the nose, that starts with the letter presented. This can also be used to teach beginning sounds.
Make a game out of rhyming (押韻) words by making up silly words to rhyme with the child's name or favorite toys. This sets the stage for rhyming real words by showing the child the similarities of sounds. As the child masters making up the words, begin rhyming real words to one another.
Tips to raise a successful reader:
Put books in places where the child plays. If books are easily accessible, children are more likely to pick them up.
Let children "read to you" by looking at pictures. Making up stories to go along with illustrations helps children discover how words relate to pictures.
Take books along on trips or even short visits to the doctor's office or grocery store.
Have children help you shop. Reading grocery lists and looking for specific items helps build vocabulary.
小題1: Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A．A good reading habit can benefit your child at school.

B．Computer games help children develop reading skills.

C．You should be careful as for what books to read.

D．Children enjoy reading poems to their parents.

小題2:What does the underlined word “accessible” most probably mean?

A．available

B．beneficial

C．readable

D．worthwhile

小題3:What can we conclude from the text?

A．The most important thing is to make reading funny.

B．Children have a preference for stories with pictures.

C．Rhyming games should begin only with real words.

D．Children tend to read more if books are at hand.

小題4:Which of the following can be the best title of the text?

A．Interest is the best teacher

B．Practice makes perfect

C．Good methods are half done

D．Failure teaches success

小題5:What are the intended readers of the text?

We produce 500 billion of plastic bags in a year worldwide and they are thrown away polluting oceans, killing wildlife and getting dumped in landfills where they take up to 1000 years to decompose. Researchers have been unsuccessfully looking for a solution.
The 16-year old Canadian high school student, Daniel Burd, from Waterloo Collegiate Institute,
has discovered a way to make plastic bags degrade(分解) in as few as 3 months, a finding that won him first prize at the Canada－Wide Science Fair, a $10 000 prize, a $20 000 scholarship, and a chance to revolutionize a major environmental issue.
Burd's strategy was simple: Since plastic does eventually degrade, it must be eaten by microorganisms (微生物). If those microorganisms could be identified, we could put them to work eating the plastic much faster than under normal conditions.
With this goal in mind, he ground plastic bags into a powder and concocted(調制) a solution of household chemicals, yeast(酵母) and tap water to encourage microbes growth. Then he added the plastic powder and let the microbes work their magic for 3 months. Finally, he tested the resulting bacterial culture on plastic bags, exposing one plastic sample to dead bacteria as a control. Sure enough, the plastic exposed to the live bacteria was 17% lighter than the control after six weeks.
The inputs are cheap: maintaining the required temperature takes little energy because microbes produce heat as they work, and the only outputs are water and tiny levels of carbon dioxide.
“Almost every week I have to do chores and when I open the closet door, I have piles of plastic bags falling on top of me. One day, I got tired of it and I wanted to know what other people are doing with these plastic bags. The answer: not much. So I decided to do something myself.” said Daniel Burd.
小題1:Daniel Burd won first prize at the Canada－Wide Science Fair because________.

A．he found a new kind of microorganism

B．he contributed much to environmental protection

C．he found a way to degrade plastics in shorter time

D．he could encourage microbes growth in an easier way

小題2:Daniel Burd exposed one plastic sample to dead bacteria to ________.

A．make the live bacteria work better

B．test how effective his method was

C．know which bacteria worked faster

D．control the temperature in the process

小題3:Maintaining the required temperature takes little energy because ________.

A．plastics can get hot easily

B．microbes can produce heat themselves

C．much carbon dioxide is produced

D．the temperature can be controlled

小題4:Daniel Burd got his idea from ________.

A．his school textbook	B．the failure of researchers
C．his everyday work	D．the practice of other people

You do not need every word to understand the meaning of what you read. In fact, too much emphasis (強調) on separate words both slows your speed and reduces your comprehension.
First, any habit which slows down your silent reading to the speed at which you speak or read aloud, is inefficient. If you point to each word as you read, or move your head, or form the words with your lips, you read poorly. Less obvious habits also hold back reading efficiency (效率). One is "saying" each word silently by moving your tongue or throat; another is "hearing" each word as you read.
These are habits which should have been outgrown long ago. The beginning reader is learning how letters can make words, how written words are pronounced, and how sentences are put together. Your reading purpose is quite different, which is to understand meaning.
It has been supposed that up to 75% of the words in English sentences are not really necessary for expressing the meaning. The secret of silent reading is to find out those key words and phrases which carry the thought, and to pay less attention to words which exist only for grammatical completeness.
An efficient reader can grasp the meaning from a page at least twice as fast as he can read the page aloud. He takes in a whole phrase or thought unit at a time. If he “says" or "hears" words to himself, they are selected ones, said for emphasis.
小題1:This passage is mainly about ______.

A．improving eye movement

B．reading more widely

C．changing poor reading habits

D．reading as fast as you can

小題2:Saying each word to yourself as you read _____.

A．improves comprehension

B．increases reading speed

C．gives too much emphasis

D．reduces reading efficiency

小題3:Your reading purpose should be _____.

A．to understand all the words

B．to make fewer eye movements

C．to understand meaning

D．to understand the grammatical structures

小題4:While reading, efficient readers usually _____.

A．move their eyes quickly

B．take in whole phrases or thought units

C．point at key words

D．read only important points for speed

Let us begin by saying what does not cause our dreams. Our dreams do not come from “another world ”. They are not messages from outside source. They are not a look into the future , either ．
All our dreams have something to do with our feelings, fears, longings, wishes, needs and memories. If a person is hungry , or tired or cold , his dreams may include a feeling of this kind ．If the covers on your body , such as a quilt or a blanket have slipped off your bed , you may dream that you are sleeping on the ice and snow. The material for the dream you will have tonight is likely to come from the experience you have today.
So the subject of your dream usually comes from something that has effect on you while you are sleeping （feeling of cold, a noise, a discomfort, etc．） and it may also use your past experiences and the wishes and the interests you have now．This is why children are likely to dream of fairies, older children of school examinations, hungry people of food, home-sick soldiers of their families and prisoners of freedom．
To show you how this is happening while you are asleep and how your needs and wishes can all be joined together in a dream , here is the story of the experiment．A man was asleep and the back of his hand was rubbed with a piece of absorbed cotton．He would dream he was in hospital and his charming girlfriend was visiting him , sitting on the bed and feeling gently his hands!
There are some scientists who have made a special study of why we dream, what we dream and what those dreams mean．Their explanations of dreams , though a bit reasonable, is not accepted by everyone but it offers an interesting approach to the problem．They believe that dreams are mostly expressions of wishes that do not come true．In other words, dreams are a way of having your wishes carried out．
小題1:From the passage we know that our dreams ___________.

A．are imagination of our daily life

B．are man’s curious look into the future

C．have nothing to do with our feelings

D．are to some degree connected with our feelings

小題2:Older children often dream of examinations probably because ___________.

A．they are interested in exams

B．they are often worried about their studies

C．they hope for a better life

D．they show much interest in their studies

小題3:According to the writer , the explanation of dreams that some scientists made ___________.

A．is considered interesting , but unreasonable

B．gives a good answer to the question why we dream

C．has some value , though not fully convincing

D．has been proved by the findings of their studies

小題4:What is the best title for this passage ?

A．Why People Dream ?	B．New Findings about Dreams
C．Dream Makes Hopes	D．What Dreams Mean ?

Television is a relatively stable advertising medium. In many ways, the television ads today are almost the same to those two decades ago. Most television ads still feature actors, still run 30 or 60 seconds, and still show a product. However, the different medium of the Internet causes unique challenges to advertisers, forcing them to adapt their practices and techniques.
In the early days of Internet marketing, online advertisers used banner (框式廣告) and pop-up ads (彈出式廣告) to attract customers. These techniques reached large audiences, led to many sales leads, and came at a low cost. However, a small number of Internet users began to consider these advertising techniques annoying. Yet because marketing strategies relying heavily on banners and pop-ups produced results, companies invested growing amounts of money into purchasing these ad types. As consumers became more complicated, frustration with these online advertising techniques grew. Independent programmers began to develop tools that blocked banner and pop-up ads.
A major development in online marketing came with the introduction of pay-per-click ads. Unlike banner or pop-up ads, which originally required companies to pay every time a website visitor saw an ad, pay-per-click ads allowed companies to pay only when an interested potential customer clicked on an ad. More importantly, however, these ads are not affected by the pop-up and banner blockers. As a result of these advantages and the incredible growth in the use of search engines, which provide excellent places for pay-per-click advertising, a great number of companies began turning to pay-per-click marketing. However, as with the banner and pop-up ads, pay-per-click ads came with their shortcomings. When companies began pouring billions of dollars into this emerging medium, online advertising specialists started to notice the presence of what would later be called click fraud (欺詐): representatives of a company with no interest in the product advertised by a competitor click on the competitor’s ads simply to increase the marketing cost of the competitor. Click fraud grew so rapidly that marketers sought to diversify (擺脫) their online positions away from pay-per-click marketing through new mediums.
Although pay-per-click advertising remains a common and effective advertising tool, marketers adapted yet again to the changing elements of the Internet by adopting new techniques such as pay-per-performance advertising. As the pace of the Internet’s evolution increases, it seems all the more likely that advertising successfully on the Internet will require a strategy that avoids constancy (持續性) and welcomes change.
小題1:What is the main idea of the passage?

A．The pace of the Internet’s evolution is increasing and will only increase in the future.

B．Internet advertising fails to reach Internet users, causing ads to be blocked.

C．The Internet has experienced dramatic changes in short periods of time.

D．Rapid development of the Internet calls for new advertising strategies and mediums.

小題2:As an advertising medium, the television and the Internet mainly differ in ________.

A．the type of individual each medium reaches

B．whether the medium is interactive

C．the pace at which the medium develops

D．the cost of advertising with each medium

小題3:According to the passage, which of the following is a typical click fraud?

A．Using software to block competitors’ advertisements.

B．Clicking on the pay-per-click ads of competitors.

C．Clicking on the banner advertisements of opponent companies.

D．Using search engine to attack the pages of competitors.

小題4:What does the author imply about the future of pay-per-performance advertising?

A．It will eventually become less popular just like other forms of Internet advertising.

B．It will not face shortcomings due to its differing approach to online marketing.

C．Internet users will develop free software to block its effectiveness.

D．Although it improves on pay-per-click advertising, it still suffers from click fraud.

Most animals have little connection with animals of a different kind, unless they hunt them for food. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership(伙伴關系) which does good to both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the back of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites(寄生蟲）on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort. So although they can manage without each other, they do better together.
Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot do without each other. This is so in the corals(珊瑚）of the sea. In their skins they have tiny plants which act as “dustman”, taking some of the waste products from the coral and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are even prevented from light so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.
小題1:Some birds like to sit on a sheep because _________.

A．they can eat its parasites

B．they consider the sheep as their shelter

C．they enjoy traveling with the sheep

D．they find the position most comfortable

小題2:The underlined word “they” in the first paragraph refers to _______.

A．birds and parasites	B．sheep, birds and parasites
C．parasites and sheep	D．birds and sheep

小題3:It can be learnt from the text that the coral depends on the plants for ________.

A．comfort

B．light

C．oxygen

D．food

小題4:What does the second paragraph mainly discuss?

A．Some plants depend on each other for food.

B．Some animals and plants develop their relationship easily.

C．Some animals and plants depend on each other for existence.

D．Some animals live better together.

Humans have sewn by hand for thousands of years. It was said that the first thread was made from animal muscle and sinew (肌腱). And the earliest needles were made from bones. Since those early days, many people have been involved in the process of developing a machine that could do the same thing more quickly and with greater efficiency.
Charles Wiesenthal, who was born in Germany, designed and received a patent on a double-pointed needle that eliminated the need to turn the needle around with each stitch (縫合) in England in 1755. Other inventors of that time tried to develop a functional sewing machine, but each design had at least one serious imperfection.
Frenchman Barthelemy Thimonnier finally engineered a machine that really worked. However, he was nearly killed by a group of angry tailors when they burned down his garment factory. They feared that they would lose their jobs to the machine.
American inventor Elias Howe, born on July 9, 1819, was awarded a patent for a method of sewing that used thread from two different sources. Howe’s machine had a needle with an eye at the point, and it used the two threads to make a special stitch called a lockstitch. However, Howe faced difficulty in finding buyers for his machines in America. In frustration, he traveled to England to try to sell his invention there. When he finally returned home, he found that dozens of manufacturers were adapting his discovery for use in their own sewing machines.
Isaac Singer, another American inventor, was also a manufacturer who made improvements to the design of sewing machines. He invented an up-and-down-motion mechanism that replaced the side-to-side machines. He also developed a foot treadle (腳踏板) to power his machine. This improvement left the sewer’s hands free. Undoubtedly, it was a huge improvement of the hand-cranked machine of the past. Soon the Singer sewing machine achieved more fame than the others for it was more practical. It could be adapted to home use and it could be bought on hire-purchase. The Singer sewing machine became the first home appliance, and the Singer company became one of the first American multinationals.
However, Singer used the same method to create a lockstitch that Howe had already patented. As a result, Howe accused him of patent infringement (侵犯). Of course, Elias Howe won the court case, and Singer was ordered to pay Howe royalties (版稅). In the end, Howe became a millionaire, not by manufacturing the sewing machine, but by receiving royalty payments for his invention.
小題1:Barthelemy Thimonnier’s garment factory was burned down because __________.

A．people did not know how to put out the fire

B．Elias Howe thought Thimonnier had stolen his invention

C．the sewing machines couldn’t work finally

D．workers who feared the loss of their jobs to a machine set fire

小題2:Why did the court force Isaac Singer to pay Elias Howe a lifetime of royalties?

A．Because the judge was against Singer for his unfriendly attitude.

B．Because Howe had already patented the lockstitch used by Singer.

C．Because Singer had borrowed money from Howe and never repaid it.

D．Because Singer and Howe had both invented the same machine.

小題3:Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?

A．A Stitch in Time Saves Nine

B．The Case between Howe and Singer

C．Patent Laws on the Sewing Machine

D．The Early History of the Sewing Machine
