21、 Walk past any Bath & Body Works store and you' ll see a colourful display of popular antibacterial soaps. Sold in thick plastic containers with heavy foam （泡沫）—producing pumps on top and loaded with nice smell, these liquid soaps are seen everywhere. Besides their plastic packaging, they are ' antibacterial, ' as are so many other soaps, body scrubs（磨砂膏）,and lip sticks these days, not to mention household cleaners and even mattresses. The world has gone crazy for antibacterial products-but, unfortunately, antibacterial is bad.
Keep in mind that antibacterial soap is no more effective at killing germs than regular soap. Using antibacterial soap may even lead to the development of bacteria that are resistant to the products antimicrobial agents-making it harder to kill these germs in the future.
The problem is that they leave a surface leftover after being washed or wiped away. This leftover is supposed to continue killing afterwards, but it can also promote the growth of resistant bacteria, which are stronger than the original bacteria. Triclosan （三氯生），a common mixed material in antibacterial soaps and hand washing liquids, is a probable human carcinogen （致癌物）.Triclosan, also known as Microban, has been found in breast milk and exists in 60 percent of American waterways, which opens a pathway for potential pollution of food. In 2009, the Canadian Medical Association called on its government to ban all antibacterial products but was unsuccessful.
As unexciting as it is, plain old bar soap is the way to go. Regular soap works by loosening dirt, oil, and microbes so they can be washed away. Effective hand washing requires vigorous washing of all surfaces and should last at least 20 seconds. A bar of soap requires little to no packaging, and the greenest option is one with a vegetable glycerine base, free from chemical smell and harmful materials.
【1】What does using antibacterial soap result in?
A.Making things cleaner. B.Killing more germs.
C.Keeping things more healthy. D.Promoting the development of bacteria.
【2】What' s the author ' s attitude towards the antibacterial soaps?
A.supportive B.anxious C.opposed D.uninterested
【3】What does the underlined "they"in paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Original bacteria. B.Antibacterial soaps.
C.Household cleaners. D.Antimicrobial agents.
【4】What does the author suggest in the last paragraph?
A.Using regular soaps is the best option.
B.Washing hands needs longer time than ever.
C.Buying soaps with no packing and chemicals.
D.Keeping antibacterial soap is beneficial to health.
22、 People have gown taller over the last century, with South Korean women shooting up by more than 20cm on average, and Iranian men gaining 16. 5cm. A global study looked at the average height of 18 year-olds in 200 countries between 1914and 2014.
The results reveal that while Swedes were the tallest people in the world in 1914, Dutch men have risen from I2th place to claim top spot with an average height of 182. 5cm. Latvian women, meanwhile, rose from 28th place in 1914 to become the tallest in the world a century later, with an average height of 169. 8cm.
James Bentham, a co-author of the research from Imperial College, London, says the global trend is likely to be due primarily to improvements in nutrition and healthcare. “An individual's genetics has a big influence on their height, but once you average over whole populations, genetics plays a less key role, " he added.
A little extra height brings a number of advantages, says Elio Riboli of Imperial College. "Being taller is associated with longer life expectancy," he said. "This is largely due to a lower risk of dying of cardiovascular（心血管的）disease among taller people.”
But while height has increased around the world, the trend in many countries of north and sub-Saharan Africa causes concern, says Riboli. While height increased in Ugands and "Nigeria during the early 20th century, the trend has reversed in recant yeas, with height decreasing among 18-year-olds.
“One reason for these decreases in height is the economic situation in the 1980s," said Alexander Moradi df the University of Sussex. The nutritional and health crises that followed the policy of structural adjustment, he says, led to many children and teenagers failing to teach their full potential in terms of beight.
Bentham believes the global trend of increasing height has important inaolications. “How tall we are now is strongly influenced by the environment we grew up in," he said. "If we give children the best passible start in life now, they will be healthier and more productive for decades to come."
【1】What does the global study tell us about people's height in the last hundred years?
A.There is a remarkable difference across cantinents.
B.There has been a marked increase in most countries.
C.The increase in people's height has been quickening.
D.The increase in women's height is bigger than in men's.
【2】What does James Bentham say about genetics in the increase of people's height?
A.It counts Jess than generally thought.
B.It outweighs nutrition and healthcare.
C.It impacts more on an individual than on a population.
D.It plays a more significant role in females than in males.
【3】What do we lean about 18-year-olds in Uganda and Nigeria?
A.They grow up slower than their peers in other countriea.
B.They are actually shorter than their earlier generations.
C.They find it hard to bring their potential into full play.
D.They have experienced many changes of govemment.
【4】What does James Bentham suggest we do?
A.Watch closely the global trend in children's development.
B.Make sure that our children grow up to their full height.
C.Try every means possible to improve our environment.
D.Ensure our children grow up in an ideal environment.
23、Atticus was sitting in the swing, and Mr. Tate was in a chair next to him. The light from the living-room windows was strong on them.
“Well, Heck,” Atticus was saying, “Of course it was clear-cut self defense, but it’ll come before county court.”
“Mr. Finch, do you think Jem killed Bob Ewell? Do you think that?”
“You heard what Scout said, there’s no doubt about it. She said Jem got up and yanked him off her — he probably got hold of Ewell’s knife somehow in the dark… we’ll find out tomorrow.”
“Mr. Finch, hold on.” said Mr. Tate. “Jem never stabbed Bob Ewell.”
Atticus was silent for a moment. He looked at Mr. Tate as if he appreciated what he said. But Atticus shook his head.
“Heck, thank you from the bottom of my heart, but I don’t want my boy starting out with something like this over his head. Best way to clear the air is to have it all out in the open.”
“Mr. Finch,” Mr. Tate said, “Bob Ewell fell on his knife. He killed himself.”
“Heck,” Atticus’s back was turned. “If this thing’s hushed up (掩盖) it’ll be a simple denial to Jem of the way I’ve tried to raise him. Before Jem looks at anyone else he looks at me, and I’ve tried to live so I can look squarely back at him… if I allow this to happen, I couldn’t meet his eyes, and the day I can’t do that I’ll know I’ve lost him. I don’t want to lose him and Scout, because they’re all I’ve got.”
“Mr. Finch.” Mr. Tate was still planted to the floorboards. “Bob Ewell fell on his knife. I can prove it.”
Atticus wheeled around. His hands dug into his pockets. “Heck, can’t you even try to see it my way? When my children are grown I’ll be an old man if I’m still around, but right now I’m —— if they don’t trust me they won’t trust anybody. Jem and Scout know what happened. If they hear of me saying downtown something different happened — Heck, I won’t have them any more. I can’t live one way in town and another way in my home.”
Mr. Tate said patiently, “Bob Ewell fell on his knife. — Look, I can show you.”

24、ONE day my 5-year-old daughter, Mini, ran to the window crying: “A Cabuliwallah (从喀布尔来的水果商贩)! A Cabuliwallah!” In the street below was a Cabuliwallah, passing slowly along. Mini called him loudly but when he looked at her she ran away scared. Shortly after this, the two became friends.
They started to hang out together, laughing and talking. Mini’s new friend would give her raisins (葡萄干) and almonds (杏仁) , spending the little money he had on her.
The two of them enjoyed joking together. The Cabuliwallah, who was called Rahmun, would say: “Well, little one, when are you going to the father-in-law’s house?” Mini did not understand this and was puzzled.
One morning, I heard uproar (骚动) in the street, and saw Rahmun being led away by the police. There were bloodstains on his clothes. I gathered that a neighbor had owed Rahmun money for a shawl (披肩) but had falsely denied having bought it, and that in the course of the quarrel Rahmun had struck him. On a charge of murderous assault (攻击), Rahmun was sentenced to jail.
Time passed, and he was not remembered. Mini grew up and we were making arrangements for her wedding. I was sitting in my study when someone entered. It was Rahmun, the Cabuliwallah, released from prison.
Barely recognizable now, he asked to see Mini and said that all those years ago she had reminded him of his own daughter in Kabul. It was his belief that Mini was still the same. He had pictured her running to him calling “Cabuliwallah!”. He had imagined that they would laugh and talk together. In fact, he had brought her, wrapped up in paper, a few almonds and grapes.
The two were reunited but Mini had grown up. She now understood the meaning of the word “father-in-law,” and when he made this joke once more she flushed up (脸红) at the question. He could not revive (还原) their old friendship.
When Rahmun left, I gave him a bank note, saying: “Go back to your own daughter, and may the happiness of your meeting bring good fortune to my child!”
Having made this present, I had to give up the electric lights and the military band I had intended for the wedding and the ladies in the house were disappointed. But to me the wedding feast was all the brighter for the thought that in a distant land a long-lost father met again with his child.
Adapted from Tagore’s (泰戈尔) short novel The Cabuliwallah
