Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.
Energy drinks are now available (可购得的) in nearly every store and they promise to make people feel more energetic and think more clearly. these products have names like Red Bull , Monster, 5-Hour Energy and so on, which appeal mainly to young adults and teenagers.
Chad is a medical researcher who got interested in studying energy drinks because of the explosion (猛增) in their popularing in the last few years.He says he and his research team have found three major things about energy drinks. One: there are huandreds of brands of energy drinks in most major countries. Two: the drinks are not clearly labeled (用标签标明) with enough information such as what are contained in the drink, the date and even t names of their makers. And three: the amount of caffeine ( 加啡因) varies greatly. Some contain as little as fifty milligrams, others as much as five hundred.
Some energy drinks contain a mixture of ingredients (配料) listed as an “energy blend”. But scientists do not know a lot about them and how they interact with each other. These ingredients may be dangerous for people who drink them. What is worse , he says, there is no listing of the amount of each ingredient. Some makers of energy drinks do provide warnings. For example, a popular energy drink warns against use by people who are nursing a baby or under the age of twelve.
Chad and his team suggest labeling energy drinks with the amount of caffeine and other ingredients clearly in order to protect the health of the public. And the government officials are considering their suggestions now.

Some people succeed, while others may not.
This is because some people possess certain qualities, which others do not.
The first thing you must remember is that in
order to succeed, you must be optimistic. If you do not expect to win, you will
not try as hard as those who do expect to win. You also need to have a clear
aim and a reason for doing something because motivation is a key to achieving
success. If you do not have an aim, then you will not be motivated to work hard
and put your performance under the microscope to make sure that every detail is
right.
Another quality that helps people succeed is
creativity---considering things in a different way and wondering how others
would do the same thing. Think about some successful people you know. They
might be successful with a little creativity, but the most successful people
are the most creative ones.
Reading is another key to success, as it helps
you learn about how other people have achieved success. If you want to learn
how to set up a successful business, you should read books about successful people
like Bill Gates, who have achieved amazing success in their areas of business.
Practising is equally important if you want
to succeed because practice makes perfect. Practise every day at whatever
career you are in, and by doing so, you will see yourself, your business and
your self-confidence begin to grow. If you feel confident about what you do,
this confidence will make other people believe in you as well. Your colleagues
will be happy to work with you, and your boss will give you more
responsibility. Finally if you are a successful person, you will be able to
look people in the eye and smile confidently.

DNA is one of the most important discoveries in science. DNA is the plan for the human being, as a blueprint is the plan for a building. DNA makes a person look the way he does. A person’s DNA comes from a mixing of his parents’ DNA. That’s why a child looks like his parents. But, besides controlling things such as height and hair color, DNA can also give people diseases. Scientists are now studying DNA to cure diseases.
In the seventies, scientists developed a process called recombinant or RDNA. Although it sounds difficult to understand, RDNA simply means taking DNA from one animal or plant and putting it into another. By doing so, scientists can create new beings. In doing so, scientists can better understand DNA, especially what parts of DNA do what. After they understand DNA, scientists can begin to cure diseases. Often, the new being created will itself be the cure. Besides curing diseases, RDNA research can also do other things. For example, scientists in Japan have already created “super-trees”. Trees help humans, because they take CO2, which poisons humans, from the air and turns it into oxygen, which lets humans breathe. “Super-trees” do this too, but do it much faster. As things such as cars and factories have already put much CO2 in the area, “super-trees” are badly needed.
Unfortunately, there is a serious danger in RDNA research. Scientists want to create animals to cure old diseases, but these new animals may also create new diseases. It will be a serious problem if the animals escape from the science laboratory and into nature. As these animals are not natural, they may let loose many new powerful diseases.
As a result, RDNA research will create many solutions, but it will also create many problems.

Life gets noisier every day and very few people can be free from noise of some sort or another. It doesn’t matter where you live-in the middle of a modern city, or a faraway village-the chances that you will be disturbed by jet aeroplanes, transistor radios, oil-powered engines, etc. are almost everywhere .We seem to be getting used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely without background music while they are working.
Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be very frightening experience for human beings. However, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their eardrums(耳鼓).The noise level in some disco is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas.
A recent report about noise and concentration(专心) suggested that although a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their concentration, what really affects their ability to concentrate is a change in the level of noise. It goes on to say that a background noise, which doesn’t change too much (music, for example) may even help people to concentrate.
