As we have seen, the focus of medical care in our society has been shifting from curing disease
to preventing disease—especially in terms of changing our many unhealthy behaviors, such as poor
eating habits, smoking, and failure to exercise. The line of thought involved in this shift can be
pursued further. Imagine a person who is about the right weight, but does not eat very nutritious
foods, who feels OK but exercises only occasionally, and who has no chest pains or abnormal blood
counts, but sleeps a lot and often feels tired. This person is not ill. He may not even be at risk for any particular disease. But we can imagine that this person could be a lot healthier.
The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someone who is merely “not
ill” and someone who is in excellent health and pays attention to the body's special needs. Both types
have simply been called “well”．In recent years, however, some health specialists have begun to
apply the terms “well” and “wellness” only to those who are actively attempting to maintain and
improve their health. People who are well are concerned with nutrition and exercise, and they make
a point of monitoring their body's condition. Most importantly, perhaps, people who are well take
active responsibility for all matters related to their health. Even people who have a physical disease
or handicap (缺陷) may be “well”. In this new sense, if they make an effort to maintain the best
possible health, they can in the face of their physical limitations. “Wellness” may perhaps best be
viewed not as a state that people can achieve, but as an ideal that people can struggle for. People
who are well are likely to be better able to resist disease and to fight disease when it strikes. And by
focusing attention on healthy ways of living, the concept of wellness can have a beneficial influence
on the ways in which people face the challenges of daily life.
5. Today's medical care is placing more stress on ________．
A．keeping people in a healthy physical condition
B．monitoring patients' body functions
C．removing people's bad living habits
D．ensuring people's psychological well-being
6. According to the passage, the true meaning of the underlined word “wellness” is for people
________．
A．to best satisfy their body's special needs
B．to strive to maintain the best possible health
C．to meet the strictest standards of bodily health
D．to keep a proper balance between work and leisure
7. According to what the author advocates（主张）, which of the following groups of people would
be considered healthy?
A．People who have strong muscles as well as slim figures.
B．People who are not presently experiencing any symptoms of disease.
C．People who try to be as healthy as possible, regardless of their limitations.D．People who can recover from illness even without seeking medical care.
C
Scientists who study insects are troubled now. All across the United States, bees are leaving
their hives and never returning. According to the beekeepers across the country, 25 to 40 percent of
the bees in the United States have left their hives since last fall. So far, no one can explain why.
Bees play an important role in the production of about one third of the food we eat. A large
number of plants not only need people's care but also need bees that spread pollen from flower to
flower. Without this process，a plant can't produce seeds or fruits.
Now ， a group of scientists and beekeepers are trying to find out what has happened. By
examining bees' behavior and health，they hope to find out what has caused the bees' disappearance
and to prevent bees from disappearing in the future.
Some people think the disappearance may be caused by disease. According to Dewey Caron，a
researcher at the University of Delaware，the bees have signs of troubled immune systems (免疫系
统)inside their bodies. But why would troubled immune systems cause bees to leave their hives？
After all，when people are sick，they want to stay at home. Caron guesses that sick bees may have
difficulty figuring out where their homes are.
“Another cause may be some chemicals that farmers use to kill unwanted insects on crops.”
says Jerry Hayes，who works at the Florida Department of Agriculture.
8. The underlined part “this process” refers to ________.
A．people's care
B．bees' leaving their hives
C．bees' spreading pollen from flower to flower
D．beekeepers' raising bees
9. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A．the use of some chemicals is the cause of the bees disappearance
B．sick bees are not able to find where their hives are
C．it's not known yet why a lot of bees are leaving their hives and never returning
D．there will be no bees in America in the near future
10. What would be the best title for the passage?A．Bees，Humans' Friends
B．Scientists Are Interested in Bees
C．Why Are Bees Leaving?
D．How Do Bees Send out Information?
11. The passage is most probably taken from ________.
A．science news
B．a public advertisement
C．a book on advanced technology
D．a business report
D
Getting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, the attitudes to dirt
are always changing.
In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease,
and washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was
thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom.
So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe
lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a
nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should
not go out.
Though the belief above was longlived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor
ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water
supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of
cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ.Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea;
clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt,
however, gone too far?
Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many firsttime parents nervously try to warn
their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary，
Mary Ruebush，an American immunologist(免疫学家)，encourages children to play in the dirt to
build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.12. The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because ________.
A．they believed disease could be spread in public baths
B．they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay in
C．they lived healthily in a dirty environment
D．they considered bathing as the cause of skin disease
13. Which of the following best describes Henry IV's attitude to bathing?
A．Approving B．Afraid C．Curious D．Uninterested.
14. How does the passage mainly develop?
A．By providing examples.
B．By making comparisons.
C．By following the order of importance.
D．By following the order of time.
15. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?
A．To stress the role of dirt.
B．To introduce the history of dirt.
C．To present the change of views on dirt.
D．To call attention to the danger of dirt.

参考范文
Dear Judy,
I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t do well in your exam and that you are depressed and worried
about your study. As your friend, I have some tips for you.
First of all, I quite understand how you feel now. I want to say failure is the mother of success.
So never give up though you failed this time. You should try to analyze the cause and draw a lesson
from it. This can help you make up for the shorts of knowledge and skills in those areas. The next is
to build up confidence, for it is the deciding factor to ideal grade.
I am sure by doing this your test results will be improved next time and gradually your
confidence will also come back. Hope everything goes well with you and looking forward to your
reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
