22、 Ask any group of teenagers in the UK what they most like to eat, and foods like pizzas, curries, pasta, burgers and chips are bound to get mentioned and many young people would probably also list hanging out at the local fast food restaurant as one of their favorite pastimes (消遣).
But what teenagers like to eat is not necessarily what they should be eating.According to the National and Nutrition Survey, far too many young people in the UK between the ages of 14 and 18 consume too much fat sugar and salt in their diet and take in too many calories. Meanwhile their intake of starchy carbohydrates (含大淀粉的碳水水化合物),fibre, iron, vitamins and calcium is too low.
For a growing body, eating foods containing plenty of calcium, such as milk, yoghurt and cheese, is particularly important as calcium is essential for the development of healthy, strong bones.Similarly. foods that are rich in iron are good for young, rapidly developing bodies, so red meat. bread, green vegetables, dried fruit and tonified (使增强体质的)breakfast cereals are also recommended.
It is during our teenage years that habits of lifestyle can become entrenched (根深蒂固的),so it is crucial (全关重要的)that voung people are educated about what foods arc good for them.In 2005, in an attempt 10 change eating habits and open teenagers’ minds to new flavours and new tastes. celebrity chef Jamie Oliver launched a "Feed Me Better”campaign.As part of a television series Jamle School drivers. hc worked with teachers and cooks in a number of schools across the UK to provide more healthy. rutritious school meal opt ions. AIthough there was initial resistance from sonic teenagers and parents. the campaign was generally hailed (把...... 誉为)as a huge success and helped to influence governmental policy on nutritional standards for school meals.
No one expects to end thc teenage love affair with fast and junk food but. hopefully, if projects "Feed Me Better" and the govemment's own "Change for Life" campaign continue to give out the right messages, more young people will understand the importance of balancing occasional treats with healthier food options.
【1】From the first two paragraphs we can know that .
A. British teenagers eat too much junk food

D. British teenagers should reduce their intake of starchy carbohydrates

23、 It turns out that overworking your brain with either physical or mental exercise may lower your ability to delay self-satisfaction. And that may set you up for poor choices in your self-care and finances.
A new study published Thursday in the journal Current Biology asked excellent endurance athletes to overtrain for three out of nine weeks, and compared them to a group who did a normal 9-week training program.
Not only did those overworked athletes perform worse on a cycling test at the end of the overtraining MRls(核磁共振) of their brains during behavioral tasks showed more exhaustion in the cognitive control part of the brain system. “Cognitive control in this situation is the capacity to maintain exercise despite things like muscle pain,” said study author Bastien Blain, a research associate at University College London. “And what we found is that there is an intelligence factor involved in exercising and it has a limited capacity. You cannot use it forever.”
In other words, your brain will burn out and affect your body’s ability to exercise. But that’s not all. Overworking that part of the brain also reduced the athletes’ abilities to resist temptation of an immediate reward, “For example, they were asked whether they preferred $10 now or $50 in six months,” Blain said. “And those who overtrained were more likely to choose the immediate reward, which is interesting. It could provide a mechanism to explain why some athletes are using drugs to improve their performance.”
One caution about the exercise study is that it only looked at endurance athletes, said. Dr. Marc-Andre Cornier, who is associate director of Colorado University’s Anschutz Health and Wellness Center. “This is potentially very important for the higher end athlete who is overdoing it,” Cormier said. “But does this have anything to do with the average Joe going to the gym? You can’t conclude that from this study.”
【1】What does the underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refer to?
A.The brain system. B.A limited capacity.
C.An intelligence factor. D.The cognitive control.
【2】Why did overworked athletes tend to choose the immediate reward?
A.Because they were too eager to succeed.
B.Because all parts of their brain burned out.
C.Because overtraining led to their bad decisions.
D.Because they took drugs to improve their performance.
【3】What is the passage mainly about?
A.A study about self-satisfaction.
B.Negative effects of too much exercise.
C.The relation between brain and exercise.
D.Poor choices in people’s self care and finances.
【4】What can we infer from the passage?
A.There is a limit to the brain.
B.Higher end athletes have great potential.
C.Top athletes may suffer from overtraining.
D.Delaying self-satisfaction results in better performance.
24、 When you feel a sneeze or a cough coming on, covering your mouth prevents the spread of infectious germs(细菌). You probably knew that. But the way you cover up also matters, and there are plenty of people who haven’t yet heard the advice from health officials: If no tissue is available, you should aim into your elbow(肘部), not your hand. Even if that means breaking a long-held habit.
If somebody sneezes into their hands, that creates an opportunity for those germs to be passed on to other people, or pollute other objects that people touch, said Dr. Vincent Hill, of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC). Germs are most commonly spread by the respiratory droplets(呼吸道飞沫) produced from sneezing and coughing. These troublemakers are a real headache. When they land on your hands, they’re passed on to things like door knobs(把手), lift buttons and other surfaces the people around you are likely to also touch.
“You or your co-workers might be forgiven for not knowing that. The CDC guidance has become official only in the last 10 to 15 years,” Dr. Hill said Dr. Georges Benjamin, executive director of the American Public Health Association, said he began hearing the suggestion more often about 10 years ago. That means that adults may have missed the advice. Children, however, are frequently taught in school the proper way to cough or sneeze. Mary Anne, a professor at the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Medicine, traced the suggestion to sneeze into your arm to 2003, when SARS fears were widespread.
To be clear, the method doesn’t get rid of all risk. Studies have shown that even masks can’t prevent all droplets from floating in the air. A drum that can never be beaten enough: Make sure you pay more visits to your bathroom sink and make your hands clean, Dr. Jackson suggested.
【1】According to Paragraph 1, what is the advice from health officials?
A.Keep tissue at hand.
B.Sneeze into your arm.
C.Avoid coughing in front of other people.
D.Cover your mouth with a hand when coughing.
【2】What does the underlined part “These troublemaker” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Bad habits. B.Polluted objects.
C.Sneezing and coughing. D.The respiratory droplets.
【3】What do we know about the CDC guidance?
A.It was made official in 2003. B.It was an idea of a SARS patient.
C.It is relatively new to the public. D.It is hard to practice in schools.

All of a sudden, a horrible ______ came. Looking down, Winters saw a two year old on the sidewalk gasping for air, his mother ______ for help in panic. The boy had been sucking on a piece of candy when it ______ down the back of his mouth, lodging in his throat and blocking his windpipe.

26、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was 13, I climbed my first mountain — a fairly gentle 3,900-foot hilltop near where I live. And later it became my hobby.
I often go climbing with my friend Mel Olsen. Two years ago, on December 30, when I was 16, she and I drove to Oregon to climb 11,240-foot Mount Hood.
That day, we started at 3 a.m. The temperature was about 14 degrees, and we wore thick clothes. Along the way, we met two other climbers, and the four of us continued on together.
After about five hours, we reached Devil’s Kitchen, a place at about 10,000 feet, just before the final push to the top. By this point, the wind conditions were terrible. The other climbers decided to turn back, but Mel and I went ahead.
The track we followed grew narrower and steeper (陡峭的). At around 9 a.m., we reached an ice step. It was about three or four feet tall and very steep. I volunteered to go first. I placed my left foot on the ice step. Confident I was safe, I put my full weight on it. Suddenly, I heard a crack, and a whole sheet of ice broke off the step, right under my foot.
In an instant, I fell backward. I could hear Mel calling my name as I rolled down the mountain as if I were a character in a video game. I remember thinking, This is it. You’re done.
After a few seconds, I came to a stop on a shallow incline (斜面) just above the Devil’s Kitchen. I’d fallen 600 feet. My clothes were shredded (撕碎), my helmet was broken, and my face was bloodied. I was suffering from a sharp, serious pain in my left leg.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
As Mel made her way down, I shouted for help, and other climbers came to assist me.
