A
Recently, binge (暴食) is becoming a major health problem in America. “As soon as I came home I′d throw down my backpack and just start going through the refrigerator and start eating. Sandwiches, cookies, candy bars—I′d just continuously eat until I went to bed,” says Matt Wymer, 18. Matt was a binge eater. “You know we start at a very young age. You fall and hurt your knees. Your mother may say “Oh, here, we′ll go to get some ice cream, that‟ll make you feel better.” Or when you go to the doctor, something bad happens: The doctor says, “Oh, here‟s something that‟s comforting‟ and you get a candy,” says Marilyn Tanner, a doctor. Matt looked for comfort because he was always laughed at because of his weight. “There’d be days when I′d come and pick him up from school and he′d get in the car and start crying before I asked him anything,” says Cathy Wymer, Matt’s mother. “I′d just feel better after I ate a lot,” says Matt.
Experts say the first step of treatment for binge eaters is to help them find other ways, besides food, to feel better. “There are about five basic ways: You write, you talk, you cry, you exercise or you laugh,” says Genie Burnett, a psychologist. With the help of his doctor, Matt started a diet and a daily workout. He′s lost more than 150 pounds, he′s healthier and he says he′d be more confident.
( ) 1. From the second paragraph we can learn that ________.
A. Matt is very busy at home every day
B. Matt goes to bed very late at night
C. Matt suffers from an eating disorder
D. Matt is too hungry to go to bed

A. he had nothing to eat at the moment

D. he was laughed at by others at school
( )4. Matt has become more confident by __________.

C. The ways to keep healthy

B
People have lots of different thoughts that they wish to express. For many reasons, most people just keep their thoughts to themselves and never tell them to others. Another form of self-expression is the written word. For many people, it is easier for them to express their thoughts or emotions in writing, instead of speaking them out. It is an especially popular way for expression among shy and highly self-conscious (自尊) people. People′s thoughts are written down and then published(出版) so that others can read and enjoy them.
There are many reasons why newspapers and publishers actually publish people′s thoughts, but the major reason is to give information. With the introduction of newer technologies, new ways now appear to share people′s ideas quickly. Blogs are just one way. People can now let the world know their hopes, dreams and day to day activities through a web blog. Better than that, many sites allow customers to create their own web blog for free. The word blog comes from the words web and log. Slogging is the term that is used to refer to activities relating to a blog, such as creating it, updating and adding content(内容). And the blogger is the person who puts that content on the blog. Blogs can be very powerful. Blogs can change the world by changing the opinions of large numbers of people around the world.
( ) 6. People who are shy would like to express their thoughts by ________.
A. writing B. reading C. speaking D. thinking
( ) 7. According to the passage, the major reason that newspapers publish people′s thoughts
A. make money B. make them well-known
C. give information D. let people relax
( ) 8. The latest and quickest way for you to share your thought with others is __________.
15
A. publishing it on the newspaper
B. taking part in the everyday activities
C. talking to everybody you meet about it
D. writing blogs on the web
( ) 9. The sixth paragraph is probably to ________.
A. tell us the web blog is very interesting
B. tell us how to write a blog
C. explain the meaning of some related words
D. show us the importance of the blog
( ) 10. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. No sites can help you create your own web blog for free.
B. Blogs can affect people around the world greatly.
C. The blogger is the person who puts some content on the blog.
D. A web blog can let the world know your wishes and dreams.

What is pollution? Smoke, dirty water, rubbish and so on. Some pollution is easy to be seen like smoke, but much
of pollution is not obvious (明显) at all, yet you′re eating it, drinking it or breathing it most of the time. Pollution is everywhere. It makes humans, animals and plants sick and it even kills them. It’s even making the climate change. 13What’s worseis that pollution has caused many problems to all life on the earth. There’s nowhere on the earth left with no pollution, not even the sea or the air. 14Environmental problems are becoming more and more serious all over the world. People have realized these problems. Humans make the pollution and they should try to stop it, especially you, because the future is yours! We should protect our home. I hope the problems of pollution will be solved in the near future and our home will become better and better.

One of the strangest jobs at the Oscars is that of a seat filler. When one of the stars needs to go to the bathroom, a seat filler sits in the star’s seat. That way, the TV cameras won’t show any empty seats. Kathy Miller talks about her night as a seat filler.
(A)I was told to reach the theater in the middle of the day, wearing my dress for the evening. There were about 200 of us seat fillers, all very excited. We were told what we should and shouldn’t do (for example, “Don’t talk to the stars”), and then (B) 我们一直等到五点钟. That’s when the stars started coming.
The show started at six o’clock. We had to stand outside the doors. Then, when someone came out to go to the bathroom or have a cigarette（香烟）, we were told to go and sit in their seat. (C) The show was three hours long, and I only sat down five times. By the end, I was really tired, but I was happy because, during the evening, I sat behind Jim Carrey (He’s very tall!) and close to Denzel Washington, Nicole Kidman and Julia Roberts. It was an exciting night, but I think (D) year I’ll watch the Oscars on TV at home like everyone else!
