Breakfast
Studies show that children who eat breakfast do better in sch001．It doesn’t take much
further thought to believe that adults will feel better and perform better at work as well．Whether
you work at home，on the farm，at the office，at school，or on the road，it is not a good idea to skip(故意略去)breakfast．
If we don’t eat breakfast，we are likely to become tired when our brains and bodies run low
on fuel．By mid-morning，a lot of us grab a cup of coffee，or wolf down a sugary candy bar to
wake up again．This might work for a few minutes，but by 1unchtime we are hungry，
bad-tempered，and perhaps our mood might make us a little more likely to make unhealthy
choices at 1unch．Eating a good breakfast sets the tone for the rest of the day．
People who eat breakfast are generally more likely to maintain a healthy weight．Many
people believe that they will lose weight if they skip meals，but that isn’t a good idea．The body
expects to be refueled a few times a day, so start with a healthy breakfast．
A healthy breakfast should contain some protein(蛋白质)and some fiber(纤维)．Protein
can come from meat，eggs，beans，or soy(大豆)．Fiber can be found in whole cereals(谷物)，
grains or in fruits A good example of a healthy breakfast might be something simple like a hard
boiled egg，an orange，and a bowl of whole grain cereal with soy milk．
16 Adults who eat breakfast will perform better at work．
A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
17 It is okay to skip breakfast if you work at home．
A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
18 Men are more likely to skip breakfast than women．

A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
22 People who eat breakfast are seldom in a bad mood．

The Drink Your Body Needs Most
1 Our bodies are estimated to be about 60％to 70％water．Blood is mostly water．and our
muscles，lungs，and brain all contain a lot of water．Water is needed to regulate body temperature
and to provide the means for nutrients(滋养物)to travel to a11 our organs．Water also transports
oxygen to our cells，removes waste，and protects our joints and organs．
2 We lose water through urination(排尿)，respiration(呼吸)，and by sweating．If you are very
active，you lose more water than if you do not take much exercise．Symptoms of mild
dehydration(脱水)include chronic pains in joints and muscles，lower back pain，headaches，and
constipation(便秘)．A strong smell to your urine，along with a yellow color indicates that you are
not getting enough water．Thirst is all obvious sign of dehydration and in fact，you need water
long before you feel thirsty．
3 A good rule of thumb(好的做法)is to take your body weight in pounds and divide that
number in half．That gives you the number of ounces(盎司)of water per day that you need．For
example，if you weigh 160 pounds，you should drink at least 80 ounces of water per day．If you
exercise you should drink another 8-ounce glass of water for every 20 minutes you are active If
you drink coffee or alcohol，you should add at least an equal amount of water．When you are
traveling on an airplane，it is good to have 8 ounces of water for every hour you are on board the
plane
4 It may be difficult to drink enough water on a busy day Be sure you have water handy at all
times by keeping a bottle for water with you when you are working，traveling，or exercising．If
you get bored with plain water,add a bit of lemon for a touch of flavor．There are some brands of
flavored water available，but some of them have sugar or artificial sweeteners that you don’t
need
23 Paragraph 1________
24 Paragraph 2________
25 Paragraph 3________
26 Paragraph 4________
27 One cannot 1ive_____
A Ounces of Water Needed Per Day
B Importance of Water
C Composition of Water
D Signs of Dehydration
E Supply of Water
F Necessity for Bringing a Bottle for
Water with Yon
28 Dehydration may occur if there is a shortage of water_____

下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题，每道题后面有4个选项。请根据文章的内容
从每题所给的4个选项中选择1个最佳答案，涂在答题卡相应的位置上。
第一篇
Exercise Lowers Employers’Health Costs
Companies can save millions in health-care costs simply by encouraging their employees to
exercise a little bit，researchers reported on Friday．
They said obese(肥胖的)employees had higher health-care costs，but lowered those
expenses by exercising just a couple of times a week-without even losing any weight．
Feifei Wang and colleagues at the University of Michigan studied 23，500 workers at
General Motors．
They estimated that getting the most sedentary(惯于久坐的)obese workers to exercise
would have saved about$790，000 a year，or about 1．5 percent of health—care costs for the whole
group.
Company—wide．the potential savings could reach$7 1 million per year，they reported in the
Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine
Of the whole group of workers．about 30 percent were of normal weight，45 percent were
overweight(超重的)，and 25 percent were obese．Annual health-care costs averaged$2，200 for
normal weight，$2，400 for the overweight，and$2，700 for obese employees．
But among workers who did no exercise，health—care costs went up by at least$100 a year，
and were$3．000 a year for obese employees who were sedentary
But adding two or more days of light exercise——at least 20 minutes of exercise or work
hard enough to increase heart rate and breathing——lowered costs by on average$500 per
employee a year，the researchers found.
“This indicates that physical activity behavior could reduce at least some of the harmful
effects of excess body fat，and in consequence，help lower the health-care costs，”Wang and
colleagues wrote．
31 How can employees help lower the health-care costs?
A By taking more rest
B By eating less．
C By exercising a little bit．
D By saving more money．
32 By encouraging its employees to exercise General Motors could save
A$790，000 per year．
B $7.1 million per year．
C$3,000per year
D $7,300 per year．
33 How many workers in General Motors were NOT of normal weight?
A Seventy percent
B Thirty percent．
C Forty-five percent
D Twenty-five percent．
34 For which group of the workers were the health-care costs the highest?
A The employees of normal weight．
B The overweight employees
C The obese employees．
D The sedentary obese employees．
35 How often should the employees exercise to help lower the health-care costs?
A At least seven days a week．
B At least twenty minutes a week．
C At least twice a week
D At least once a week

Medical Education
In 18th．century colonial America，those who wanted to become physicians either learned as
personal students from established professionals or went abroad to study in the traditional schools
of London，Paris{and Edinburgh．Medicine was first taught formally by specialists at the
University of Pennsylvania，beginning in 1765，and in 1767 at King’s College(now Columbia University)，the first institution in the colonies to give the degree of doctor of medicine．
Following the American Revolution，the Columbia medical faculty(formerly of King’S College)
was combined with the College of Physicians and Surgeons，chartered in 1809，which survives as
a division of Columbia University．
In 1893 the Johns Hopkins Medical School required all applicants to have a college degree
and was the first to afford its students the opportunity to further their training in an attached
teaching hospital．The growth of medical schools attached with established institutions of
learning went together with the development of proprietary(私营的)schools of medicine run for
personal profit．most of which had 10W standards and poor facilities In 1910 Abraham Flexner。
the American education reformer, wrote Medical Education in the United States and Canada，
exposing the poor conditions of most proprietary schools Subsequently the American Medical
Association(AMA)and the Association of American Medical Colleges(AAMC)1aid down
standards for course content，qualifications of teachers，laboratory facilities，connection with
teaching hospitals，and licensing of medical practitioners(开业医师)that survive to this day．
By the late 1980s the US and Canada had 142 4．year medical colleges recognized bv the
Liaison(联络1 Committee on Medical Education to offer che M．D．degree；during the 1987-88
academic year,47,262 men and 25,686 women entered these colleges and an estimated 11，752
men and 5，958 women were graduated．Graduates，after a year of internship(实习期)，receive
licenses to practice if they pass an examination given either by a state board or by the National
Board of Medical Examiners
