A

Eating too much fatty food, exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease. But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately: the air you breathe.

Previous studies have linked high exposure (暴露)to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problem, but two analyses now show that poor air quality can lead to heart attack or stroke (中风)within as little as a few hours after exposure. In one review of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants (污染物)were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. A separate study of stroke patients showed that even air that the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers to be of “moderate” (良好)quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.

The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.

56. The text mainly discusses the relationship between ______ .

A. heart problems and air quality    B. heart problems and exercising

C. heart problems and smoking    D. heart problems and fatty food

57. The underlined word “modest” in Paragraph 3 most probably means ______ .

A. relatively high        B. extremely low

C. relatively low        D. extremely high

58. What can we learn from the text?

A. Eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.

B. The EPA conducted many studies on air quality.

C. Moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking.

D. Stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.

59. The author’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to _______.

A. inform     B. persuade    C. describe     D. entertain

B

When my brother and I were young, my mom would take us on Transportation Days.

It goes like this: You can't take any means of transportation more than once. We would start from home, walking two blocks to

the rail station. We'd take the train into the city center, then a bus, switching to the train, then maybe a taxi. We always considered

taking a horse carriage in the historic district, but we didn't like the way the horses were treated, so we never did. At the end of the

day, we took the subway to our closest station, where Mom's friend was waiting to give us a ride home—our first car ride of the day.

The good thing about Transportation Days is not only that Mom taught us how to get around. She was born to be multimodal (多方式的).

She understood that depending on cars only was a  failure of imagination and, above all, a failure of confidence—the product of a childhood

not spent exploring subway tunnels.

Once you learn the route map and step with certainty over the gap between the train and the platform, nothing is frightening anymore. New

cities are just light­rail lines to be explored. And your personal car, if you have one, becomes just one more tool in the toolbox—and often

an inadequate one, limiting both your mobility and your wallet.

On Transportation Days, we might stop for lunch on Chestrut Street or buy a new book or toy, but the transportation was the point. First,

it was exciting enough to watch the world speed by from the train window. As I got older, my mom helped me unlock the mysteries that w

ould otherwise have paralyzed my first attempts to do it myself: How do I know where to get off? How do I know how much it costs? How

do I know when I need tickets, and where to get them? What track, what line, which direction, where's the stop, and will I get wet when we

go under the river?

I'm writing this right now on an airplane, a means we didn't try on our Transportation Days and, we now know, the dirtiest and most polluting

of them all. My flight routed me through Philadelphia. My multimodal mom met me for dinner in the airport. She took a train to meet me.

60.Which was forbidden by Mom on Transportation Days?

A.Having a car ride.

B.Taking the train twice.

C.Buying more than one toy.

D.Touring the historic district.

61.According to the writer, what was the greatest benefit of her Transportation Days?

A.Building confidence in herself.

B.Reducing her use of private cars.

C.Developing her sense of direction.

D.Giving her knowledge about vehicles.

62.The underlined word “paralyzed”(in Para.5) is closest in meaning to “________”.

A.displayed      B.justified       C.ignored       D.ruined

63.Which means of transportation does the writer probably disapprove of?

A.Airplane.      B.Subway.       C.Train.        D.Car.

C

Inside the pleasingly fragrant cafe, So All May Eat(SAME) in downtown Denver, the spirit of generosity(慷慨)is instantly noticeable: A donation

box stands in place of a cash register. Customers here pay only what they can afford, no questions asked.

A risky business plan, perhaps, but SAME Cafe has done one unchangeable thing in the Mile High City for six years: Open only at midday, the

restaurant provides poor local people with healthy, delicious lunches six days a week. Those unable to pay for their meals can instead volunt

eer as waiters and waitresses, and dishwashers, or look after the buildings and equipment for the cafe.

“It's based on trust, and it's working all right,” says co­owner Brad Birky, who started the cafe in 2006 with his wife Libby. Previously volunteering

at soup kitchens, the Birkys were dissatisfied with the often unhealthy meals they served there.

“We wanted to offer quality food in a restaurant where everyone felt comfortable, regardless of their circumstances,”Birky says. SAME's special

lunch menu changes daily and most food materials are natural and grown by local farmers.

The cafe now averages 65 to 70 customers (and eight volunteers) a day. And the spirit of generosity behind the project appears to be spreading.

In early 2007, one volunteer who had cleared snow for his meals during the long winter said goodbye to the Birkys.“He said he was going to New

Orleans to help with the hurricane cleanup,”says Birky.

64. What can we learn about the soup kitchens the Birkys previously worked for?

A. They refused to have volunteers.

B. They offered  low quality food.

C. They provided customers with a good environment.

D. They closed down because of poor management.

65. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A. The customers who cannot pay can work as volunteers instead.

B. More volunteers will go to New Orleans for the hurricane cleanup.

C. Many new cafes will be opened to offer free lunches in the town.

D. The lunch menu has remained the same since the cafe was started.

66. The author's attitude towards running such a cafe is ________.

A. unfavorable       B. Approving      C. doubtful              D. cautious

Wilderness

“In wilderness (荒野) is the preservation of the world.”This is a famous saying from a writer regarded as one of the fathers of environmentalism

. The frequency with which it is borrowed mirrors a heated debate on environmental protection: whether to place wilderness at the heart

of what is to be preserved.

As John Sauven of Greenpeace UK points out, there is a strong appeal in images of the wild, the untouched; more than anything else, they

speak of the nature that many people value most dearly. The urge to leave the subject of such images untouched is strong, and the danger

exploitation(开发)brings to such landscapes(景观)is real. Some of these wildernesses also perform functions that humans need—the rain f

orests, for example, store carbon in vast quantities. To Mr. Sauven, these “ecosystem services” far outweigh the gains from exploitation.

Lee Lane, a visiting fellow at the Hudson Institute, takes the opposing view. He acknowledges that wildernesses do provide useful services,

such as water conservation. But that is not, he argues, a reason to avoid all human presence, or indeed commercial and industrial exploitation.

There are ever more people on the Earth, and they reasonably and rightfully want to have better lives, rather than merely struggle for survival. While

the ways of using resources have improved, there is still a growing need  for raw materials, and some wildernesses contain them in abundance.

If they can be tapped without reducing the services those wildernesses provide, the argument goes, there is no further reason not to do so. Being

untouched is not, in itself, a characteristic worth valuing above all others.
