On every packet of cigarettes(香烟),people are warned against the 17 of smoking:“Warning:Cigarette Smoking Is Dangerous to Your Health”. 18 ,millions of them start smoking or go on smoking.Why?
Facts show that families and surroundings(环境) play a very important part in 19 smokers.All those smokers come from smoking families or have smoking 20 or relatives.Films and TV plays also play a part.People 21 their “heroes” on TV drinking alcohol(酒) or smoking cigarettes.“Heroes” seem to fear 22 ,neither killing themselves nor killing others with alcohol and cigarettes.If they are not afraid of the harm of smoking and drinking, 23 should common people be afraid?
The simple warning on the cigarette packet does not influence smokers' habits.Even 24 warnings,like showing pictures of smokers who have died of cancer,don't seem to work.

答案
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。很少有人愿意改变自己的习惯,无论是好是坏,他们宁愿一直保持下去。虽然人们都了解吸烟的危害,但事实证明,家庭和环境对他们的影响更大。因此,了解和相信吸烟的危害似乎是两码事。如果吸烟真的如医生所说的那样危害身体,吸烟者的确应该考虑戒烟了。
16.B 无论是吸烟、喝酒或者暴食,人们都会保持到最后。stop停止;continue继续;finish完成;avoid避免。由句中的to the end可知应选B项。
17.D 在每个烟盒上都有警告,告诫人们吸烟的危害。chance机会;excuse借口;cause原因;danger危害。由下文Warning: Cigarette Smoking Is Dangerous to Your Health可知,应选D项。
18.C 虽然人们被警告吸烟有害健康,然而仍有数百万人在吸烟。moreover而且,此外;also而且;otherwise否则,要不然;however然而,故选C项。
19.A 根据下文 All those smokers come from smoking families or have smoking...可知,家庭和环境会对吸烟者产生很大的影响。explain解释;improve改善;describe描述;influence影响,故选A项。
20.D 承接上句,家庭和环境会对吸烟者产生很大的影响。parents,uncles,brothers均属家人或亲戚;friends属于周围的环境,故选D项。
21.C 人们在电视上看到他们的“英雄们”喝酒或吸烟。hear听见;catch抓住;face面对;watch观看,故选C项。
22.B 由下文neither killing themselves nor killing others with alcohol and cigarettes可知,银幕上的“英雄们”无所畏惧。故选B项。
23.D 要是银幕上的“英雄们”不害怕吸烟和喝酒的危害,普通人为什么要害怕呢?故选D项。
24.A 烟盒上简单的警告不能影响吸烟者的习惯,甚至更有力的警告似乎都无济于事。此处stronger warnings指的是更有力的警告。故选A项。
25.C 人们了解吸烟的危害和相信这个观点似乎是两码事。similar相似的;pleasant令人愉快的;boring无聊的;different不同的,故选C项。
Ⅲ.阅读理解(每小题2分,共38分)
A
Before the elevator was invented in the late 1800s,buildings were much smaller and lower,as people did not want to walk up and down stairs(楼梯)all day.With the invention of the elevator came high-rise buildings and skyscrapers.
Some people find elevators make them a little uncomfortable because there are many people all standing close in a small room.It is best just to relax and enjoy the ride.
When the elevator doors open,stand aside and let everyone out before you try to get in.Even if you are in a hurry,it's impolite to push someone so that you can get into an elevator.
Don't stare at(盯着看)people or stand too close.Try to keep your eyes looking ahead or you could make others feel nervous or uncomfortable.
If you have to move past people to get out of the elevator,say“Excuse me,please”or“I'm sorry”rather than just pushing them out of the way.Others will understand it if you show some politeness.
If you are standing close to the buttons(按钮),ask others what floors they are going to and press the buttons for them.This is considered to be polite.
In case of emergency(紧急情况),follow the instructions written inside the elevator and try to keep others calm.

China is a nation of etiquette(礼仪).Chinese people are among the most hospitable people in the world.If foreigners visit a Chinese family,they would be surprised at the warmth that they would receive as guests.
When you visit a Chinese family,the host usually makes tea for you.Then he will serve you snacks(小吃)like biscuits or candy.Someone in the family will also chat with you,never letting you feel lonely.
At the same time,other family members will prepare a meal for you.Chinese people treat(款待)their guests with a big meal.They always present more food than the guest can eat.On the table,the guests must be the first to eat.Perhaps one of the things that surprise a western guest most is that the Chinese host likes to pick food for visitors,which won't happen at western tables.The Chinese family go out of their way to make you feel at home.As you are done eating,the host usually says,“It seems that you didn't eat much.Please have more.” Although you tell them you are full,they still put more food in your bowl.
Being warm and hospitable has long been an important part of Chinese culture and tradition.As Confucius(孔子)said thousands of years ago:
To meet friends from afar
How happy we are!

C
It's said that about 55% of communication is unspoken, so in fact,our bodies are actually saying more than our words.I find that the key to a successful conversation in any language is to speak to people not only in their spoken language but also with the body language they know best.
Britain, along with much of Northern Europe,has a non-touch culture,so“personal space”is very important.In a formal(正式的)situation,we would usually greet each other with a handshake.Informally,but not so often, my British friends and I would greet with a hug.Hardly ever would we greet with a kiss on the cheek,let alone a hug and two kisses on the cheek!Here in the south of Italy,and in many different parts of the world,both men and women greet with two kisses on the cheek,use a lot of hand signs and often touch each other.In other words,little personal space is left between people when communicating.
At university,I have learnt to successfully communicate in spoken Italian.And since I moved to live with the local people,I have also started to pick up their body language.Sometimes,I find myself not knowing what hand signs to use when expressing myself.However,what I know for sure is that I would miss the opportunity to fully put myself in the Italian culture if I keep my personal space unbroken.
Here are 5 body language tips in Italy:
*Use different signs:head,arms and hands.
*Use facial expressions.Always smile at people!It is said that smiling is the most powerful unspoken way to communicate friendliness.
*Use eye contact(交流),because“the eyes are the window to the soul.”
*Don't worry about personal space.Italians are a people who like to use the sense of touch,so moving

away or keeping your distance may be considered as being unfriendly.
*Touch.When meeting and leaving,always shake hands.
36.In Britain,people usually greet each other with .
A.a warm hug
B.a handshake
C.a kiss on the cheek
D.two kisses on the cheek
37.The writer uses Britain and Italy as examples to show .
A.men and women greet in the same way
B.Italians are more friendly than the British people
C.keeping personal space is very important in any country
D.people in different countries use different body language
38.From Paragraph 3,we can learn that the writer .
A.likes to keep his personal space
B.tries to learn Italian body language
C.knows little about Italian hand signs
D.keeps using British body language in Italy
39.What is the most powerful unspoken way to show friendliness in Italy?
A.Hand signs. B.Smiling.
C.Eye contact. D.Touch.

Smart phone,poor sight
Look around and you'll see people busy on their smart phones.Smart phones do make our lives easier.But have you ever thought about what they mean to your eyes?
According to a study,half of British people own smart phones and they spend an average(平均)of two hours a day using them.There has been a 35% increase in the number of people in the UK who suffer from short-sightedness(近视)since smart phones were introduced there in 1997.
Staring(盯)at smart phones for long time gives you dry eyes.When looking at something in the distance,your eyes automatically blink(自动眨眼)a certain number of times.However,when you look at things closer to your face,the blinking slows down.This reduces the amount of tears and causes discomfort in your eyes.Another bad habit is using smart phones in dark rooms before going to sleep.If you look at a bright screen while your pupils(瞳孔)become larger,too much light enters your eyes.This can do harm to the eyes and cause a disease called glaucoma(青光眼).

While you're probably not going to stop using your smart phone,there are a few things you can do to protect your eyes.Hold your phone at least 30 centimeters away from your eyes when using it.Take a break every hour and try the following:look at something at least five meters away from you and then focus on the tip of your nose.Repeat this several times.It should reduce the discomfort in your eyes.
40.The article is mainly about .
A.the rules to obey when using smart phones
B.the harm that smart phones do to users' eyes
C.the reasons why teenagers get short-sightedness
D.advantages and disadvantages of smart phones
41.From Paragraph 2,we learn that .
A.half of the British people began to use smart phones 17 years ago
B.each of the British people spends two hours a day on smart phones
C.more British people have suffered from short-sightedness since 1997
D.the number of British people who own smart phones increases by 35%
42.According to Paragraph 3,using smart phones improperly may cause .
A.too many blinks B.more tears in the eyes
C.smaller pupils D.dry eyes and glaucoma
43.Which of the following is suggested by the writer?
A.Don't use the phone for over an hour without a break.
B.Hold the phone at least half a meter away from the eyes.
C.Turn off your phone for a couple of hours every day.
