26、It would be nice if eating a particular food could magically protect you against all the boring illnesses. It’s not that simple, of course. Hand washing remains your best defense against picking up illnesses, and sleep is a strong defense too. But what you eat does play an important part. Though it isn’t because of just one or two foods, what you eat in your daily diet have an effect on how weak or strong your immunity(免疫力)is.
We’d better eat fruits and vegetables every day. They contain key vitamins needed in the immune system. For example, Vitamin C and Ain foods help immune system work well to keep us healthy. Remember that eating the actual fruit or veggie is better than eating single-vitamin supplements(补品).
Getting too little protein(蛋白质) can weaken your immune system. Protein-rich foods supply the amino acids(氨基酸)you need to build important proteins in the body. Animal foods like beef and pork also contain zinc(锌), which your body uses to make t-cells.
Fermented foods are foods that are naturally protected by bacteria(细菌), and they’re good for the micro biome(微生物).That’s the name for the bacteria that live in your stomach, where a lot of cells in immunity actually live. Fermented foods like yogurt help beneficial bacteria develop fast in the stomach, leaving less room for harmful bacteria.
【1】What does paragraph 1 mainly tell us?
A．Hand washing is necessary.
B．Illnesses make people bored.
C．Immunity has much to do with your diet.
D．More sleep does good to health.
【2】Why does the writer suggest we eat fruits and vegetables every day?
A．They are rich in vitamins we need.
B．Vitamin A is helpful for immunity.
C．Fruits supply our body with Vitamin C only.
D．Eating single-vitamin foods does little good.
【3】What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A．Amino acids can help to make t-cells.
B．Healthy body needs plenty of protein.
C．The immune system can be hurt easily.
D．We should eat animal foods as many as possible.
【4】What is the main idea of the text?
A．Different foods have different uses.
B．Fruits and vegetables keep us healthy.
C．Many illnesses do harm to the immunity.
D．Proper daily diet protects our immune system.
27、 Facebook says it is working on technology to allow us to control computers directly with our brains. It is developing "silent speech "software to allow people to type at a rate of 100 words per minute, it says. The project, in its early stages, will require new technology to detect brainwaves without needing invasive operation. "We are not talking about monitoring your random thoughts," assured Facebook's Regina Dugan. "You have many thoughts, and you choose to share some of them. We're talking about monitoring those words. A silent speech interface（界面）-one with all the speed and flexibility（灵活）of voice. ”
Ms Dugan is the company's head of Building 8，the firm's hardware research lab. The company said it intends to build both the hardware and software to achieve its goal，and has employed a team of more than 60 scientists and academics to work on the project.
On his Facebook page，Mark Zuckerberg added，“Our brains produce enough data to stream four HD（高清）movies every second. The problem is that the best way we have to get information out into the world-speech-can only send about the same amount of data as a 1980s modem. We're working on a system that will let you type straight from your brain about five times faster than you can type on your phone today. Finally，we want to turn it into a wearable technology that can be produced in quantity. ”
Technology is going to have to get a lot more advanced before we can share a pure thought or feeling. but this is a first step. Other ideas detailed at the company's developers conference in San Jose included work to allow people to “hear" through skin. The system，comparable to Braille，uses pressure points on the skin to pass information. "One day，not so far away，it may be possible for me to think in Chinese, and you to feel it instantly in Spanish,"Ms Dugan said.
【1】What can we know about the "silent speech"?
A. It benefits blind people a lot. B. it monitors our random thoughts.
C. It controls computers directly. D. It allows people to type fast.
【2】What Zuckerberg said shows that __________
A. this wearable technology has already been put into use
B. typing directly from brains might become a reality some day
C. the best way to send information out is to use a 1980s modem
D. speaking speed is slower than that of our brains producing data
【3】What can be learned from the last paragraph?
A. Chinese will become a language of computer.
B. Facebook has a long way to go to achieve its goal.
C. It is impossible to control computers with brains.
D. Computers can be monitored by people's skin now.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. Facebook shares brain-control ambitions
B. Computers bring profits to Facebook
C. Silent speech changes people's lifestyle
D. New technology detects brainwaves
28、 People eat more when they are glued to the television, and the more entertaining the program, the more they eat, according to a new research.
It seems that distracted(分心的)brains do not notice what the mouth is doing, said Dr Alan Hirsch, neurological director of the Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago. Hirsch explored the effect of smell, taste and eating behaviors while watching TV by measuring the number of potato chip eaten.
Forty-five volunteers ate as many chips as they wanted while they watched programs by late- night talk show hosts David Letterman and Jay Leno. They were also given chips to eat when the television was off. Hirsh found people ate an average of 44 percent more chips while watching Letterman and 42 percent more while viewing Leno, than when they did not watch TV.
“If you can concentrate on how the food tastes you’ll eat less because you’ll feel full faster,” Hirsch said in an interview all the Endocrine Society’s annual meeting in Toronto. “So if that’s the case, let’s look at the opposite. What if you’re distracted? If you’re distracted, in theory then , eat more.”
Through his research at the foundation, Hirsch has helped people overcome the loss of sense and taste sensation, which typically results in weight gain became the brain does not know when it should stop eating.
The ventromedial nucleus(腹内侧核)in the hypothalamus(丘脑下部)where the so-called satiety (饱足)center is located, tells the body whether it is hungry or full. If it is stopped tricked the result can be changed in eating patterns, he said,“People who cook spaghetti all day don’t feel like eating spaghetti at the end of the day,” said Hirsch. “By being exposed to a smell all day long it’s tricking the hypothalamus.”
Volunteers were asked to concentrate on the sensory characteristics of the food such as taste and smell. Researchers say these sensory taste and smell, in addition to internal body changes, signal satiety. But when distracted, a person does not pay attention to either the body’s sensations of feeling full, or to the sensory characteristics of the food.
Many studies have linked obesity to watching television and that link is likely due to inactivity. But perhaps entertaining shows are also contributing. “If you want to lose weight, turn off the television or watch something boring,” Hirsch said.
【1】What does the underlined word “glued to” in Para. l mean?
A.away from B.performing in C.close to D.lost in
【2】How did Hirsch carry out the research?
A.By watching people eat. B.By interviewing people.
C.By counting how many chips people eat. D.By observing how people watch television.
【3】What do Hirsch’s words in Para.6 mean?
A.They think spaghetti unhealthy. B.They have smelt spaghetti enough.
C.They don’t like eating spaghetti. D.Spaghetti has affected the hypothalamus.
【4】What do we know from Hirsch’s study?
A.Inactivity is likely to make people fat.
B.Entertaining shows are the main causes of obesity.
C.The more concentration on food taste, the less you’ll eat.
D.The ventromedial nucleus can tell whether one is hungry or full.
【5】What’s the main idea of this passage?
A.People eat more when watching TV. B.It is not good for our health to eat chips.
C.People enjoy eating while watching TV. D.How people can enjoy the TV programs.
29、 Even before my father left us, my mother had to go back to work to support our family. Once I came out of the kitchen, complaining, “Mom, I can’t peel potatoes. I have only one hand.”
Mom never looked up from sewing. “You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those potatoes,” she told me. “And don’t ever use that as an excuse for anything again!”
In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod(棒) to the next. When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids behind me laughed, and I went home crying.
That night I told Mom about it. She hugged me, and I saw her “we’ll see about that” look. The next afternoon, she took me back to school. At the deserted playground, Mom looked carefully at the bars.
“Now, pull up with your right arm,” she advised. She stood by as I struggled to lift myself with my right hand until I could hook the bar with my other elbow. Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every rung I reached. I’ll never forget the next time, crossing the rungs, I looked down at the kids who were standing with their mouths open.
One night, after a dance at my new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing. I could hear Mom come into my room. “Mom,” I said, weeping, “none of the boys would dance with me.”
For a long time, I didn’t hear anything. Then she said, “Oh, honey, someday you’ll be beating those boys off with a bat.” Her voice was faint. I peeked out from my covers to see tears running down her cheeks. Then I knew how much she suffered on my behalf. She had never let me see her tears.
【1】Which of the following expressions can be used most suitably to describe Mom’s attitude when she made the child peel potatoes?
