Vitamin B could help lessen the effects of the most dangerous type of air pollution,according to a new study published recently. In the first study of its kind,a team of international researchers looked at the damage caused by one of the pollutants that has the most severe impact on health: PM2.5. Particulate matter,or PM,is a type of air pollutant consisting of small particles of different sizes. PM2.5 has a diameter of fewer than 2.5 micrometers,about 30 times smaller than a human hair. These particles are so small that they can go into our respiratory system (呼吸系统), resulting in lung and systemic inflammation (炎症) and stress. The team found that something as simple as a daily vitamin B supplement could potentially reduce the impact of the tiny particles on the human body,although they stressed that the research was in its early stages and the sample size was small. For this study,10 volunteers were initially exposed to clean air and given a placebo (安慰剂) to check their responses. The group then took another placebo for four weeks before being exposed to heavily polluted air from downtown Toronto,where an estimated 1,000 cars pass every hour. The bad air was delivered to the volunteers through an “oxygen-type” face mask. The experiment was then repeated,with each volunteer taking a vitamin B supplement daily made up of 2.5 mg of folic acid,50 mg of vitamin B6,and 1 mg of vitamin B12. B6 can be found in liver,chicken and nuts,and B12 in fish,meat,eggs,milk and some cereals. The researchers found that four weeks of vitamin B supplements reduced the damage of PM2.5 exposure by 28%-76%. The results highlight how prevention at an individual level could be used to fight the harmful effects of PM2.5. 1.Why is PM2.5 harmful to our health? A.It pollutes and poisons the air. B.It is too much to be got rid of. C.It carries viruses and diseases. D.It is easily breathed in and damages our body. 2.What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A.The process of the research was not scientific. B.This kind of research has been done many times. C.Further studies are needed to confirm their findings. D.Vitamin B is hard to obtain in people’s daily life. 3.What is the text mainly about? A.International researchers have a new finding. B.Vitamin B could reduce the damage of PM2.5. C.Particulate matter does great harm to our health. D.Emission control and regulation are badly needed. 4.The new study was probably published ________. A.in a science journal B.on a government website C.in a fashion magazine D.in a medical textbook
Leaders shape history and here is a selection of the most remarkable views into these public figures plus first-hand accounts by those with access to them. Margaret Thatcher by Charles Moore (2013) Before Moore published the first volume of his biography, there had already been a mountain of books on Thatcher. Moore’s account is different. He shows that far from being fearless, she could often be fearful without cause. The final volume will include her fall from power. Harold Wilson by Ben Pimlott (1992) Harold Wilson had become a ghostly figure when this book was published in 1992. The absence heightened a sense of mystery. Who was he? How to explain his seemingly contradictory characteristics? Pimlott solves some of the mysteries; the book is detailed until Wilson’s final phase as prime minister in 1974. Churchill by Roy Jenkins (2001) Jenkins writes a politician as well as a historian, analyzing Churchill’s historic moves from the opinions of one who had also spoken in the Commons. Jenkins had resigned from high positions in battles over policy, and as one that changed parties, though not as frequently as Churchill did. Roy Jenkins by John Campbell (2014) Campbell calmly narrates the many political and personal dramas, including Jenkins’ intense relationship with Anthony Crosland when they were both students at Oxford. Campbell also addresses Jenkins’ various affairs with women. Like Jenkins’s political heroes, he led many lives. Campbell is sharp in describing each of them. Diaries, Volumes One to Six by Alastair Campbell (2017) Love or hate him, Campbell remains the master of the inside story, and not just because of his unusual ideas on the relationship between Tony Blair and Gordon Brown. This is an incredibly detailed book on what it’s like to live inside No. 10: the cruel space of events; and the constant conflict with the media. 1.Which of the following leaders has the largest number of books written about them? A.Harold Wilson. B.Churchill. C.Margaret Thatcher. D.Tony Blair. 2.Which writer was once a politician? A.Ben Pimlott. B.Charles Moore. C.John Campbell. D.Roy Jenkins. 3.What’s purpose of the author’s writing the passage? A.To introduce some histories on selections. B.To recommend some books on leaders. C.To tell some mysteries about historians. D.To think highly of some famous leaders.

“Trick or treat, trick or treat! Give me something good to eat!” It is Halloween! Kids dressed in costumes, neighbors giving out candy! It is just an amazing holiday! This year I decided to be a black cat. The black cat is a sign of bad luck, but is also a sign of Halloween. Halloween began in the Mediaeval-years. A festival was celebrated in Rome and people walked in parades with masks and costumes. The people carved faces into pumpkins and lit them with a candle inside. These were thought of as to ward off all the evil and bad spirits. That is why people sell pumpkins everywhere during the Halloween season. Soon after the name of this festival evolved into what we call present day-Halloween! Every year in New York City, there is a huge parade, there are floats and people walk around in costumes. Some are animal featured, some are scary and spooky like the skeleton and some are funny like the clown. It is very fun!!! Some people have Halloween parties. Stores sell a variety of costumes; the most popular costumes are the witch, the ghost, many from the old movies. Many stores sell decorating accessories(附属品) like fake spider webs, real pumpkins and plastic ghosts. So, if you are a Halloween lover, you can turn your home into a haunted house! That is absolutely cool! Halloween

Apple a day may poison children Children who eat an apple or pear a day may be exceeding(超过) the pesticide(杀虫剂) safety limit because of remains on the fruit,according to research. Using data of the British Department of Environment on pesticides on fruit collected from supermarkets,scientists thought that each day some children would get a poisonous level of pesticides. The research,published on Sunday,says the government repeatedly claims that the levels of pesticide are safe because,instead of measuring individual apples, researchers buy 10,crush them and take an average reading to see if they are safe. This is the internationally agreed method of checking remains. But government figures show that the pesticide is not averagely spread across the batch(一批),and one or two apples could contain 90% or more of the pesticide in the batch. It used mathematical modeling to measure exposure(暴露) to pesticides for children aged between 18 months and four years old. The pesticides involved can destroy children’s hormones and some are suspected(怀疑) of causing cancer. The good news for British fruit growers is that samples grown in this country had lower residue level than imported fruit,so buying home-produced fruit will reduce the danger,said Emily Diamand,one of the Earth’s senior food researchers and one of the authors of the report. 1.The reason why “Apple a day may poison children” is that ______. A. there are some pests in the apple B. children would get a poisonous level of pesticides because of the remains on the apple C. there are always more pesticides on the apples produced in Britain D. the apple is too hard for children to eat 2.The internationally agreed method of checking remains is to buy ______. A. two apples,crush them and take an average reading to see if they are safe B. five apples,crush them and test to see if they are safe C. ten apples,crush them and take an average reading to see if they are safe D. eighty apples,and then test them by crushing 3.The underlined word “residue” can be replaced by ______. A. remains B. pesticide C. poison D. medicine 4. Which of the following is NOT true? A. The remains of the pesticides can do harm to the children’s health. B. The remains of the pesticides can do harm to the children’s hormones. C. Some remains of the pesticides are suspected of causing cancer. D. For safety,we had better not import apples from Britain.

She was soon out of breath. “I suppose I had better go to the doctor,” she thought. She went to the doctor and told him her problem. “ I’m not at all surprised,” he said. “It’s obvious what your problem is .” He examined her and then gave her some advice. “If you don’t do what I say, Mrs. Parker,” he said, “you will have a heart attack. It could kill you.” Ellen was very worried as she left the doctor’s. She knew that she had to take his advice but that it would not be easy and it would take time. The next day she went shopping. The first shop she went into was a butcher’s shop. “I’d like ten pounds of steak, please,” she said. “Certainly, madam,” the butcher replied and went into the cold room and found a large piece of steak. He brought the huge piece of meat back into the shop and placed it on the scale(天平). “That’s just under ten pounds,” he said. “That’s big enough.” Mrs. Parker said. The butcher worked out the price. “At $ 4.99 a pound that will be $ 49.50, please. Would you like me to cut it up into smaller pieces for you?” “Oh, I don’t want to buy the meat,” Mrs. Parker said. “If you don’t want to buy it ,” the butcher replied angrily, “why did you ask me to get it for you ?” “My doctor told me that I am overweight and have to lose ten pounds.
