As the saying goes, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” This is the way the charity organization Heifer International (国际小母牛慈善组织) wants to end world hunger.
It began in the 1930s when an American farmer, Dan West, went to Spain to help people in need. He tried to feed the people with milk. But it seemed that there would never be enough milk. It made him think that what they needed was “not a cup, but a cow”.
Dan West returned to America. He worked together with some friends to find ways to end hunger. He believed giving animals and providing training would stop world hunger. With his help, Heifer International was set up.
On Heifer International’s website, you will see a list of animals like cows, chickens, pigs and even fish and bees. You can offer help by buying some animals for one certain family. Those animals will have babies. With more and more animals, these families will be able to support themselves. Once these families get better lives, they will pass on the act of kindness to others. More importantly, you are buying the resources (资源) for programs run by Heifer International to help more families.
The programs also help small-sized farms. As a rule, each farmer must give his animal’s first female ( 雄性) baby to another in need. Heifer International also provides training on animals health and feeding. And these farmers all agree to teach others what they have learned as another rule.
However, there is still a long way to go. The milk may run out. But if families have their own cows, they can get plenty of milk to feed themselves. The organization wants the farmers to go on working together, helping each other and learning from each other. Maybe hunger can really be stopped.
8. According to the passage, we know that Dan West_________.
A. set up a team in Spain B. helped people with enough fish
C. was a Spanish farmer D. helped set up Heifer International
9. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the charity organization Heifer International

B. Farmers in the program must teach others how to feed animals.
C. Farmers in the program must give all the animals’ babies to others.
D. Heifer Intermational provides training on animals' health and feeding.
10. If we put the passage into four parts, which of the following is the best
（①=Para.1 ②=Para.2 ③=Para.3 ④=Para.4 ⑤= Para.5 ⑥= Para.6）
A. ①；②③；④⑤；⑥ B. ①；②③；④；⑤⑥ C. ①②；③；④⑤；⑥ D. ①②③；④；⑤；⑥
11. The best title of this passage may be “________”
A. Advice on Feeding Cows B. A Cow Instead of a Cup
C. The Charity Organizations D. An American Farmer
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B

Time spent with friends in childhood is associated with physical health in adulthood, according to data from a multi-decade study of men. The findings show that boys who spent more time with friends as children tended to have lower blood pressure and lower Body Mass Index (体重指数) as men in their early 30s. “These findings suggest that our early social lives may have a small protective influence on our physical health in adulthood, and that it’s not just our caregivers or financial circumstances, but also our friends that may be health protectors,” says psychological scientist Jenny Cundiff.
“Although this wasn’t an experiment, it was a well-controlled longitudinal (纵观的) study with a racially diverse sample. It provides a strong clue that being socially integrated early in life is good for our health independent of a number of other factors such as personality and weight in childhood,” professor Karen Matthews of the University of Pittsburgh explains.
In many previous studies, researchers found an association between adults’ social well-being and health-related outcomes. Cundiff wondered whether this association might be evident much earlier in life, in childhood and adolescence (青春期).
To find out, Cundiff turned her attention to the longitudinal Pittsburgh Youth Study. Specifically, she looked into the information and facts about 267 individuals in Pittsburgh public schools. The participants’ parents reported how much time their children spent with their friends during an average week, beginning when the boys were about 6 years old and continuing through age 16. Analyses revealed that hoys who spent more time with their friends in childhood and adolescence had healthier blood pressure and BMI at 32. This association held even after Cundiff accounted for other potential influences, including physical health in childhood and social integration in adulthood.
The study included only one measure of social integration and did not include specific measures of physiological processes or organic function. Cundiff notes that expanding the range of measures used in future research could help to clarify the pathways linking early peer (同龄人) relationships with physical health decades later.
12. What conclusion does Jenny Cundiff draw from the study
A. Boys tend to spend more time with friends in childhood.
B. Boys are generally more protective as a member of society.
C. Childhood friendships may have health benefits in adulthood.
D. Childhood experiences make a difference to one’s personality.
13. How does Karen Matthews like the findings
A. Doubtful. B. Inspiring. C. Experimental. D. Reasonable.
14 What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The field and focus of the study.
B. The course and result of the study.
C. The organizer and subject of the study.
D. The purpose and significance of the study.
15. What’s the limitation of the study
A. Being short of sufficient samples.
B. Not involving men from diverse backgrounds.
C. Lacking multi-dimensional evaluation.
D. Not expanding the range of early peer relationships.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍根据一项针对男性的长达数十年的研究数据，童年时期与朋友相处的时间与成年后的身体健康有关。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“These findings suggest that our early social lives may have a small protective influence on our physical health in adulthood, and that it’s not just our caregivers or financial circumstances, but also our friends that may be health protectors(这些发现表明，我们早期的社交生活可能对成年后的身体健康产生较小的保护作用，不仅是我们的照顾者或经济状况，还有我们的朋友可能是健康保护者)”可知，童年的友谊可能对成年后的健康有益，故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段Karen Matthews的话“Although this wasn’t an experiment, it was a well-controlled longitudinal (纵观的) study with a racially diverse sample. It provides a strong clue that being socially integrated early in life is good for our health independent of a number of other factors such as personality and weight in childhood (虽然这不是一项实验，但它是一项控制良好的纵向研究，样本来自不同种族。它提供了一个强有力的线索，即在生命早期融入社会对我们的健康有益，而不受许多其他因素的影响，比如童年时期的个性和体重)”可知，Karen Matthews认为这一研究结果是有道理的，故选D项。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“To find out, Cundiff turned her attention to the longitudinal Pittsburgh Youth Study. Specifically, she looked into the information and facts about 267 individuals in Pittsburgh public schools(为了找到答案，Cundif将注意力转向了匹兹堡青年纵向研究。具体来说，她调查了匹兹堡公立学校267名学生的信息和事实)”以及“Analyses revealed that hoys who spent more time with their friends in childhood and adolescence had healthier blood pressure and BMI at 32(分析显示，在童年和青少年时期花更多时间与朋友在一起的hoys在32岁时血压和BMI更健康)”可知，第四段主要讲的是研究的过程和结果，故选B项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The study included only one measure of social integration and did not include specific measures of physiological processes or organic function. Cundiff notes that expanding the range of measures used in future research could help to clarify the pathways linking early peer (同龄人) relationships with physical health decades later(这项研究只包括一种社会融合的衡量标准，没有包括生理过程或器质功能的具体衡量标准。Cundif指出，扩大未来研究中使用的测量范围可能有助于澄清几十年后早期同伴关系与身体健康之间的联系途径)”可知研究没有包括生理过程或器质功能的具体衡量标准，所以缺乏多维度评价是其不足之处，故选C项。

38. crowded
39. who/that
40. were established
41. inventions

【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意同上。began之后可接动词不定式或动词的ing形式作宾语。故填to affet/affecting。
【38题详解】
考查形容词。句意：这些受行业启发的社会变化不仅带来了更大的繁荣，而且也导致了大多数工人拥挤的生活条件。修饰后面的名词 conditions，要用形容词。故填crowded。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：反过来，这也导致了对建筑的需求，对应用艺术和设计的需求，以及成为艺术收藏家和支持者的富商的出现。分析句子结构可知，空格之后为限定性定语从句，先行词是businessmen，在定语从句中作主语，应用关系代词who或that引导。故填who或that。

考查代词。句意同上。作 help的宾语，需要用宾格。故填them。
【45题详解】

I was born and grew up in a small seaside town. In my childhood, I often played on the beach with my elder sister, chasing（追逐）the waves and enjoying the seaside scenery.
One sunny summer afternoon, my sister and I were playing on a big rock quite a distance from the beach. We were so happy that we didn't notice the water rising. When we decided to go back, we were shocked to find that the rock had almost been covered by water and there was no way back to the shore. Meanwhile, the wind blew harder and harder. We got into a panic, waving and shouting crazily towards the shore. Suddenly, I slipped（滑）and fell into the sea. My sister stretched out her hand to catch hold of me. However, she could not stay still, and slid off the rock into the sea, too.
"Help! Help!" We cried. could feel my body tingling（酸麻）as I tried to breathe for air. I attempted to swim back to the rock, but the water was too deep and the waves were too strong. What made things worse was that the rough water made it almost impossible for anyone to hear our cries. Tears mixed with the water as I struggled in the sea. My sister, although using all her strength, wasn't able to pull me in. Instead, she was being pushed apart from me by the big waves. The two of us, scared to death, kept crying.

Fortunately, the two boys managed to find a lifeguard.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Luckily, two boys playing on the beach happened to see us. They quickly found a stick nearby and approached us cautiously, hand in hand. They tried to pull us ashore with the stick. But the stick was too short for us to reach. Worse still, the wind was getting so strong that the two boys were rocked from side to side, unable to stand steadily. Eventually, they had no choice but to go back to the shore to look for other people to help us.
Fortunately, the two boys managed to find a lifeguard. Having learned what was happening, the lifeguard rushed fearlessly against the strong wind and huge waves. Such an experienced swimmer was he that he reached us in no time. He grabbed my arm and quickly carried me to the shore, where he left me taken care of by the two boys. Then, without delay, he returned to save my sister. We were so blessed to be alive and heartily thankful to that courageous lifeguard and the two boys who had saved our lives!

National Smile Month is the largest and longest mouth health activity in the UK. Starting in 1977,it is celebrating its 42nd birthday from May 14 to June 14 this year.
The British are known for their bad teeth because they have too many sugary (甜的) foods and drinks. It seems that most of them don’t often show their feelings. They neither smile nor cry.But this is NOT true. The British like to smile as much as anyone else. They just don’t want to show their bad teeth.
Brush your teeth at least twice a day, cut down sugary foods and drinks, and visit the dentist often. With the three messages, the organizers (组织者) hope that a month of smiling will make people all around the UK realize the importance of good teeth and be confident enough to open their mouths to smile.
One interesting activity is for the British to enjoy the fun photos with short stories behind. Seeing the smiling faces and reading the interesting stories, everyone can’t help smiling! You’re welcome to send yours with big smiles online.
Smiling is not only good for you but also good for those around you, even if you do have a few bad teeth. This makes National Smile Month a great idea!

As the saying goes, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” This is the way the charity organization Heifer International (国际小母牛慈善组织) wants to end world hunger.
It began in the 1930s when an American farmer, Dan West, went to Spain to help people in need. He tried to feed the people with milk. But it seemed that there would never be enough milk. It made him think that what they needed was “not a cup, but a cow”.
Dan West returned to America. He worked together with some friends to find ways to end hunger. He believed giving animals and providing training would stop world hunger. With his help, Heifer International was set up.
On Heifer International’s website, you will see a list of animals like cows, chickens, pigs and even fish and bees. You can offer help by buying some animals for one certain family. Those animals will have babies. With more and more animals, these families will be able to support themselves. Once these families get better lives, they will pass on the act of kindness to others. More importantly, you are buying the resources (资源) for programs run by Heifer International to help more families.
The programs also help small-sized farms. As a rule, each farmer must give his animal’s first female ( 雄性) baby to another in need. Heifer International also provides training on animals health and feeding. And these farmers all agree to teach others what they have learned as another rule.
However, there is still a long way to go. The milk may run out. But if families have their own cows, they can get plenty of milk to feed themselves. The organization wants the farmers to go on working together, helping each other and learning from each other. Maybe hunger can really be stopped.
8. According to the passage, we know that Dan West_________.
A. set up a team in Spain B. helped people with enough fish
C. was a Spanish farmer D. helped set up Heifer International
9. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the charity organization Heifer International
A. Heifer International makes a list of animals on its website.
B. Farmers in the program must teach others how to feed animals.
C. Farmers in the program must give all the animals’ babies to others.
D. Heifer Intermational provides training on animals' health and feeding.
10. If we put the passage into four parts, which of the following is the best
（①=Para1 ②=Para.2 ③=Para.3 ④=Para.4 ⑤= Para.5 ⑥= Para.6）
A. ①；②③；④⑤；⑥ B. ①；②③；④；⑤⑥ C. ①②；③；④⑤；⑥ D. ①②③；④；⑤；⑥
11. The best title of this passage may be “________”
A. Advice on Feeding Cows B. A Cow Instead of a Cup
C. The Charity Organizations D. An American Farmer

Time spent with friends in childhood is associated with physical health in adulthood, according to data from a multi-decade study of men. The findings show that boys who spent more time with friends as children tended to have lower blood pressure and lower Body Mass Index (体重指数) as men in their early 30s. “These findings suggest that our early social lives may have a small protective influence on our physical health in adulthood, and that it’s not just our caregivers or financial circumstances, but also our friends that may be health protectors,” says psychological scientist Jenny Cundiff.
“Although this wasn’t an experiment, it was a well-controlled longitudinal (纵观的) study with a racially diverse sample. It provides a strong clue that being socially integrated early in life is good for our health independent of a number of other factors such as personality and weight in childhood,” professor Karen Matthews of the University of Pittsburgh explains.
In many previous studies, researchers found an association between adults’ social well-being and health-related outcomes. Cundiff wondered whether this association might be evident much earlier in life, in childhood and adolescence (青春期).
To find out, Cundiff turned her attention to the longitudinal Pittsburgh Youth Study. Specifically, she looked into the information and facts about 267 individuals in Pittsburgh public schools. The participants’ parents reported how much time their children spent with their friends during an average week, beginning when the boys were about 6 years old and continuing through age 16. Analyses revealed that hoys who spent more time with their friends in childhood and adolescence had healthier blood pressure and BMI at 32. This association held even after Cundiff accounted for other potential influences, including physical health in childhood and social integration in adulthood.
The study included only one measure of social integration and did not include specific measures of physiological processes or organic function. Cundiff notes that expanding the range of measures used in future research could help to clarify the pathways linking early peer (同龄人) relationships with physical health decades later.
12. What conclusion does Jenny Cundiff draw from the study
A. Boys tend to spend more time with friends in childhood.
B. Boys are generally more protective as a member of society.
C. Childhood friendships may have health benefits in adulthood.
D. Childhood experiences make a difference to one’s personality.
13. How does Karen Matthews like the findings
A. Doubtful. B. Inspiring. C. Experimental. D. Reasonable.
14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The field and focus of the study.
B. The course and result of the study.
C. The organizer and subject of the study.
D. The purpose and significance of the study.
15. What’s the limitation of the study
A. Being short of sufficient samples.
B. Not involving men from diverse backgrounds.
C. Lacking multi-dimensional evaluation.
D. Not expanding the range of early peer relationships.

Tips for Green Travel with Kids
Travelling doesn’t mean letting go of all the eco-friendly choices we work so hard to achieve in our daily life. Here are a few tips for green travel with kids.
Booking nonstop flights whenever possible will reduce carbon emissions (碳排放). If the closest local airport doesn’t have nonstop flights to a certain place, check with other local airports to see if nonstop flights are available. ____16____
It’s easy when travelling to pull in to fast food restaurants for snacks. ____17____ My kids love to help plan snacks. I let them create their own snacks for the trip at home.
____18____ At the airport, keep your reusable bottles empty until you have passed through the security (机场安检区). Fill them up on the other side of the security checkpoint. Single-use plastic water bottles create unnecessary waste and the plastic can be harmful to your health.
____19____ In addition, opening a few windows and turning off the air conditioner (空调) are also good ways to save energy. You should also help your children keep their good, green habits while travelling.

I was born and grew up in a small seaside town. In my childhood, I often played on the beach with my elder sister, chasing（追逐）the waves and enjoying the seaside scenery.
One sunny summer afternoon, my sister and I were playing on a big rock quite a distance from the beach. We were so happy that we didn't notice the water rising. When we decided to go back, we were shocked to find that the rock had almost been covered by water and there was no way back to the shore. Meanwhile, the wind blew harder and harder. We got into a panic, waving and shouting crazily towards the shore. Suddenly, I slipped（滑）and fell into the sea. My sister stretched out her hand to catch hold of me. However, she could not stay still, and slid off the rock into the sea, too.
"Help! Help!" We cried. could feel my body tingling（酸麻）as I tried to breathe for air. I attempted to swim back to the rock, but the water was too deep and the waves were too strong. What made things worse was that the rough water made it almost impossible for anyone to hear our cries. Tears mixed with the water as I struggled in the sea. My sister, although using all her strength, wasn't able to pull me in. Instead, she was being pushed apart from me by the big waves. The two of us, scared to death, kept crying.
