三、阅读理解(本题共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)A
Autumn and winter are cold and flu(流感) seasons. Will the old advice about dressing warmly help prevent a cold, or if you get sick, should you follow the old saying, \"feed a cold and starve(挨饿)a fever\" And what about that fever Should you take medicine to reduce your temperature, or is it better to let the body treat the fever itself Everyone seems to have an answer. But is popular wisdom valuable
Doctor Nelson knows a lot about cold and flu seasons. Nelson says research may be just starting to provide proofs (证明) for long-held beliefs. For example, scientists for years were against the idea that getting cold and wet might cause colds or flu. But recent studies have shown that cold temperatures cause stress on the body, and th at stress can create something more likely to lead to viruses. So maybe it is really important to wear warmly before going outside.
And what about feeding a cold and s tarving a fever Nelson says if you have a cold and are hungry, you should eat. But a fever, especially a high one, suggests a more serious problem. He says people are usually not hungry when they have a high fever. Eating might even make a person sick. But drinking enough water is important. A fever easily makes the body lose water.
Finally, when should you treat a fever Nelson says a fever should be treated if it stays at 40℃ or above for a day or more. A high temperature can damage(破坏) brain cells(细胞).The doctor also believes in treating a fever if it prevents a person from sleeping.
Medicine like aspirin, for example, can be used to reduce pain and fever. But aspirin should not be given to children because it can cause serious problems.
( ) 38. We can learn from the passage that Doctor Nelson_______.
A. doesn\'t believe in the old advice about preventing colds
B. is now trying his best to provide proofs for long-held beliefs
C. thinks a fever needn\'t be treated even if it prevents someone from sleeping
D. thinks you needn\'t go to a doctor immediately if you have a temperature of 40℃
( ) 39. According to Doctor Nelson, if someone catches a fever, he should_______.
A. take a bath in cold water B. drink enough water[
C. try to eat something D. take some exercise outside
( ) 40. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage
A. Why people should eat when having a cold. B. When people should treat a fever.
C. What the medicine, aspirin, is used for. W D. Whether the old advice about preventing a cold is valuable.
( )41. The passage suggests that_______.
A. aspirin can damage brain cells if an adult takes too much of it
B. the idea that getting cold can cause flu was proved true years ago
C. it is easier for people to catch colds when their bodies are stressed
D. some old advice about preventing colds isn\'t important
D
LONDON—Scientists have found an unusual way to prevent our planet from overheating: move it to a cooler spot. All you have to do is to send a few comets (彗星) in the direction of Earth, and its orbit (轨道) will be changed. Our world will then be sent moving into a safer older part of the solar system.
This idea for improving our climate comes from a group of US NASA engineers and American astronomers. They say their plan could add another six billion years to the useful lifetime of our planet—hopefully doubling its working life.
The plan put forward by Dr. Laughlin, and his colleagues Don Korycansky and Fred Adams, needs carefully directing a comet or asteroid (小行星) so that it passes close by our planet and sends some of its gravitational energy to Earth.
“Earth’s orbital speed would increase as a result and we would move to a higher orbit away from the sun,” Laughlin said.
Engineers would then direct their comet so that it passed close to Jupiter (木星) or Saturn(土星). The comet would pick up energy from one of these giant planets. Later its orbit would bring it back to Earth, and the process would be repeated.
In the short term, the plan provides an ideal way to worldwide warming, although the team was actually worried about a much greater danger. The sun is certain to heat up in about a billion years and so “seriously compromise” our biosphere (生物圈)—by cooking us. That’s why the group decided to try to save Earth.
The plan has one or two worrying sides, however. For a start, space engineers would have to be very careful about how they directed their asteroid or comet towards Earth. The smallest miscalculation (误算) in orbit could fire it straight at Earth—with deadly results.
There is also the question of the moon. As the present issue of Scientific American magazine points out, if Earth was pushed out of its present location, it is “most likely the moon would be stripped (剥离) away from Earth,” it states. This would greatly change our planet’s climate.
( ) 42.What makes the scientists plan to move Earth
A. A few comets are moving to the direction of Earth. B. Earth’s working life is coming to an end soon.
C. Earth will become too hot for mankind to keep alive. D. The moon is moving farther and farther away from Earth.
( ) 43. If the plan is successful, Earth will have a working life of ________ years.
A. 12 billion B. 6 billion C. 18 billion D. 24 billion
( ) 44.What serious problems might the plan cause according to the passage
A. The comet might hit Earth and man might lose the moon.
B. Earth might be moved too far away and man might die because of the coldness.
C. The comet might hit Jupiter or Saturn and never return to Earth.
D. Earth’s working life might be greatly shortened.
( ) 45.What does the underlined word “compromise” mean
A. provide B. benefit (受益) C. share D. endanger

三、阅读理解(本题共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)A
Autumn and winter are cold and flu(流感) seasons. Will the old advice about dressing warmly help prevent a cold, or if you get sick, should you follow the old saying, \"feed a cold and starve(挨饿)a fever\" And what about that fever Should you take medicine to reduce your temperature, or is it better to let the body treat the fever itself Everyone seems to have an answer. But is popular wisdom valuable
Doctor Nelson knows a lot about cold and flu seasons. Nelson says research may be just starting to provide proofs (证明) for long-held beliefs. For example, scientists for years were against the idea that getting cold and wet might cause colds or flu. But recent studies have shown that cold temperatures cause stress on the body, and th at stress can create something more likely to lead to viruses. So maybe it is really important to wear warmly before going outside.
And what about feeding a cold and s tarving a fever Nelson says if you have a cold and are hungry, you should eat. But a fever, especially a high one, suggests a more serious problem. He says people are usually not hungry when they have a high fever. Eating might even make a person sick. But drinking enough water is important. A fever easily makes the body lose water.
Finally, when should you treat a fever Nelson says a fever should be treated if it stays at 40℃ or above for a day or more. A high temperature can damage(破坏) brain cells(细胞).The doctor also believes in treating a fever if it prevents a person from sleeping.
Medicine like aspirin, for example, can be used to reduce pain and fever. But aspirin should not be given to children because it can cause serious problems.
( ) 38. We can learn from the passage that Doctor Nelson_______.
A. doesn\'t believe in the old advice about preventing colds
B. is now trying his best to provide proofs for long-held beliefs
C. thinks a fever needn\'t be treated even if it prevents someone from sleeping
D. thinks you needn\'t go to a doctor immediately if you have a temperature of 40℃
( ) 39. According to Doctor Nelson, if someone catches a fever, he should_______.
A. take a bath in cold water B. drink enough water[
C. try to eat something D. take some exercise outside
( ) 40. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage
A. Why people should eat when having a cold. B. When people should treat a fever.
C. What the medicine, aspirin, is used for. W D. Whether the old advice about preventing a cold is valuable.
( )41. The passage suggests that_______.
A. aspirin can damage brain cells if an adult takes too much of it
B. the idea that getting cold can cause flu was proved true years ago
C. it is easier for people to catch colds when their bodies are stressed
D. some old advice about preventing colds isn\'t important
D
LONDON—Scientists have found an unusual way to prevent our planet from overheating: move it to a cooler spot. All you have to do is to send a few comets (彗星) in the direction of Earth, and its orbit (轨道) will be changed. Our world will then be sent moving into a safer older part of the solar system.
This idea for improving our climate comes from a group of US NASA engineers and American astronomers. They say their plan could add another six billion years to the useful lifetime of our planet—hopefully doubling its working life.
The plan put forward by Dr. Laughlin, and his colleagues Don Korycansky and Fred Adams, needs carefully directing a comet or asteroid (小行星) so that it passes close by our planet and sends some of its gravitational energy to Earth.
“Earth’s orbital speed would increase as a result and we would move to a higher orbit away from the sun,” Laughlin said.
Engineers would then direct their comet so that it passed close to Jupiter (木星) or Saturn(土星). The comet would pick up energy from one of these giant planets. Later its orbit would bring it back to Earth, and the process would be repeated.
In the short term, the plan provides an ideal way to worldwide warming, although the team was actually worried about a much greater danger. The sun is certain to heat up in about a billion years and so “seriously compromise” our biosphere (生物圈)—by cooking us. That’s why the group decided to try to save Earth.
The plan has one or two worrying sides, however. For a start, space engineers would have to be very careful about how they directed their asteroid or comet towards Earth. The smallest miscalculation (误算) in orbit could fire it straight at Earth—with deadly results.
There is also the question of the moon. As the present issue of Scientific American magazine points out, if Earth was pushed out of its present location, it is “most likely the moon would be stripped (剥离) away from Earth,” it states. This would greatly change our planet’s climate.
( ) 42.What makes the scientists plan to move Earth
A. A few comets are moving to the direction of Earth. B. Earth’s working life is coming to an end soon.
C. Earth will become too hot for mankind to keep alive. D. The moon is moving farther and farther away from Earth.
( ) 43. If the plan is successful, Earth will have a working life of ________ years.
A. 12 billion B. 6 billion C. 18 billion D. 24 billion
( ) 44.What serious problems might the plan cause according to the passage
A. The comet might hit Earth and man might lose the moon.
B. Earth might be moved too far away and man might die because of the coldness.
C. The comet might hit Jupiter or Saturn and never return to Earth.
D. Earth’s working life might be greatly shortened.
( ) 45.What does the underlined word “compromise” mean
A. provide B. benefit (受益) C. share D. endanger
