Different weather
makes people feel different. It influences(影响) health, intelligence(智力) and feelings.
In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern
part of the United States.
People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this
month. In the Northeast and the Middle West,
it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these
states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.
The weather can also influence intelligence. For
example, in 1983 a report by scientists, the IQ of a group of students was very
high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10%
lower. Students in many schools of the United States often do less well on
exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).
Weather also has a strong
influence on people's feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They
usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold
weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18°C,
people become stronger.
Low air pressure (气压) may make people
forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days.
There are a “good weather” for health. People feel best at a temperature of about 18 centigrade.
Are you feeling sad, tired,
forgetful, or unhappy today? It may be the weather’s problem.
41. _________ can have a bad influence on health.

C. Warm weather
D.

One afternoon,
when the lessons were over, Peter and Paul Lee didn’t go home. They stayed in
school to help their teacher. Their teacher was starting a library in the
school and the boys helped him to carry some books. They worked for one hour.
Then the teacher said, “Thank you, boy. We’ll finish the work tomorrow. Now you
must go home.”
When the boys
reached home, it was seven o’clock. It was dark outside but there was a light
inside their home and the door was open. They could see a man inside.
“Who can it be?”
said Peter. “Mother and father have gone to do some shopping. They won’t be
home until eight o’clock.”
When the man saw
Peter, he looked frightened. Then he smiled and said, “Come in! You don’t know
me but I am your father’s friend. He has asked me to fetch some money for him.”
The man did not see Paul.
Peter went inside
and began talking to the man but Paul did not. He quickly but quietly ran off
to fetch a police man. He soon found one and brought him back to their home.
The man was still there, but when he saw the policeman, he tried to run off.
The policeman stopped him and held his arm.
Just then the
boys’ parents returned.

friend?” the policeman asked Mr. Lee.

Lee. “He is a thief. He wanted to steal my money. I am glad that you have
caught him.”

Almost every
child is scared of something, from monsters in the cupboard to dogs in the
park. But the fact that such fears are common and normal does not mean they can
be taken lightly. Kids experience fears and phobias(恐惧症)much more
strongly than adults. And the influence of the fear can be physical as well as
psychological (心理上). It can build up so they almost seem scared of
everything----a kind of childhood anxiety. Dr. Creswell says: “Your child may
always seem to expect the worst to happen and lack confidence in his other
ability to deal with any challenge.” So don’t make the same old mistake of treating them as if they’re silly for
being a “scared cat”. Handling the fears is essential.
Children can be
born nervous and, if you have such a baby, you’ll tend to prevent them from getting worried. So
if they fear dogs, you’ll keep them away from dogs, but in fact that can just
confirm to the child that dogs are scary. What is worse, keeping your child
away from what they fear can turn
that feeling into a phobia. Instead, you should encourage them to get in
touch with the thing they fear, in a safe and supportive environment. Dr. Andy
Field, a researcher of childhood fears, says: “you shouldn’t force, for
example, a dog anxious child to go up to a dog. But you can approach it
yourself, show them there is nothing to be afraid of, touch it, and talk about
the dog being friendly. Once your child dares to touch a dog----one that’s good
with children, of course----then you should encourage them to carry on until
they feel calmer, and reward them for ‘being brave’.”
50. Children’s fears are usually taken lightly because ______.
A. they will not
develop into phobias B.
their influence is psychological
C. they exist widely
in the world D. they will disappear
gradually
51. If we fail to help children overcome fears, they will ______.
A. make the same old
mistake
B. overcome them by themselves
C. experience the
worst of things
D. grow up lacking self-confidence
52. According to Dr. Andy Field, if a child is afraid of a cat, parents
should ______.
A. tell the child
not to be afraid of it B. show the
child how to approach it
C. keep the child
away from it
D. ask the child to touch it

People travel for
a lot of reasons. Some tourists go to see battlefields or other historic
remains. Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures
taken in front of famous places. But most European tourists are looking for a
sunny beach to lie on.
Northern
Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of
inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. People of cities
like London, Copenhagen,
and Amsterdam
spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much
of the rest of the year is in the rain. This is the reason why the
Mediterranean(地中海)has always attracted them. Every summer, more than
25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their
vacation. They all come for the same reason: sun!
The huge crowds
mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries. Italy’s 30,000
hotels are booked without a break every summer. And 13 million people camp out
on French beaches, parks, and roadsides. Spain’s long sandy coastline
attracts more people than anywhere else. 37 million tourists visit there
yearly, or one tourist for each person living in Spain.
But there are
signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on
earth. And with increased tourism, it’s getting worse. The French can’t figure
out what to do with all the garbage left by campers around St. Tropez. And in
many places, swimming is dangerous because of pollution.
None of these,
however, is spoiling anyone’s fun. Obviously, they don’t go there for clean water
and solitude(独处). They allow traffic jams and seem to like crowded
beaches. They don’t even mind the pollution. No matter how dirty the water is, the
coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it’s still
better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin,
London, or Oslo.
57. The writer seems to imply that Europeans travel mostly for the
reason that____.
A. they want to see historic
remains
B. they wish to escape from
the cold, dark and rainy days
C. they would like to take
pictures in front of famous sites
D. they are interested in
different cultural traditions and social customs
58.
According to the passage, which of the following countries attracts more
tourists than the others?
A. Italy B.
Greece C.
France D. Spain
59. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. All the 37 million people
living in Spain
are tourists.
B. Every person living in Spain
has to take care of a tourist.
C. Every year almost as many
tourists visit Spain
as there are people living in the country.
D. Every family in Spain
is visited by a tourist every year.
60.
According to the passage, which of the following factors might spoil the
tourists’ fun at Mediterranean resorts and beaches?
A. Polluted water. B. Crowded buses. C. Rainy weather. D. Traffic jams
