  A
   The three most valuable brand(商标)names on earth : Marlboro, Coca-cola and Budweiser , in that order.
   It’s interesting that of the three most valuable brand names on earth, NONE of them are good for you.
   Cigarettes kill 370,000 people a year in the U.S., not counting passive smoke. That’s over 1,000 people per day, equalling to five giant jets crashing daily. The estimates are that passive cigarette smoke kills over 15,000 people per year. That’s more than illegal drugs.
   Coke is a solid company, but let’s face it, carbonated(含二氧化碳的) soft drinks of any brand are not healthy for you. There was a fellow parked in my driveway years ago. We were talking and he was drinking a cola. For some reason I had moved the cola and placed it on the hood (发动机罩) of his car.
   “Don’t put that drink on my car!” he shouted. “Don’t you know the acid(酸) in that drink will eat the paint off my car?” he said. He quickly took the drink and finished drinking it.
   The third most valuable brand in the world is a beer.
   It’s interesting what we value the most. You can’t control what the world values. You can only control what you value.
   What do you value? Is it really valuable?
   One method of determining what you really value is to try to do without it. If you can’t do it without it, then that’s what you value.
   Are you trying to get to the mountaintop with a cigarette in your mouth, a soda in one hand, and a beer in the other because those are the things that you can’t do without?
   Stop and think about your real treasures.“For where your treasure is, there will be your heart also ...”
  1. According to the passage, Budweiser refersto____ .
  A. a kind of cigarette
  B. a kind of soft drink
  C. a kind of paint
  D. a kind of beer
  2. How many people are killed by passivecigarette smoke per day?
  A. about 1,000 B. about 15,000
  C. about 40 D. about 370,000
  3. Why did the fellow take the cola and finish
  drinking it immediately?
  A. Because cola was good for his health.
  B. Because cola would damage the paint ofhis car.
  C. Because he was very thirsty then.
  D. Because he wanted to apologize to me.
  4. What is the purpose of the text?
  A. To give advice on how to determine what you value most.

  about what is really valuable.

   The third theme of geography is movement. As people travel around the world, exchanging goods, ideas and interests, the global community is transformed. Take surfing, for example, the sport originated in Hawaii centuries ago. Today, the cry “surf up!” can be heard along coastlines everywhere.
   Europeans were the first Westerners to observe the sport. In 1779, Captain Cook, a British explorer, and his crew sailed around the Sandwich Islands ( Now Hawaii ). Near the rocky coast of the Big Island, they witnessed a man riding a wave while standing on a board.
   Cook was stricken by what he saw. Hawaiians would pray for good waves and hold ceremonies when building surfboards. Their boards were built according to rank: Chiefs used long boards (16 to 18 feet long ), while commoners used shorter ones (6 to 8 feet long ).
   After the arrival of Europeans, Hawaiian surf culture declined. Many Hawaiians died of European-borne diseases. Also, Christian missionaries (传教士) spread the belief that surfing was “ignorant (愚昧的)fun”.
   These conditions changed after Hawaii became a United States territory in 1900( It became a state in 1959.) Travelers to the islands brought back stories of wave riding. Tales of the thrilling sport spread across the U.S., then to the rest of the world.
   Today, surfing is the king of board sports. According to wannasurf.com, the world has nearly 8,000 “surf spots” in 136 countries on 6 continents. The Association of Surfing professionals (ASP) holds an annual world tour in which top riders compete for millions of fans on the waves.

  7. The underlined word in the fourthparagraph probably means________.
  A. excited Europeans
  B. gradually lost its strength
  C. died out
  D. became more and more popular

  B. The history of surf culture.
  C. The rebirth of surf culture.

   The sale is a milestone as China opens up its financial markets and promotes RMB as a world benchmark(基准点) .

   At least 640 people were arrested and 14 killed in fighting in Uganda’s capital between government forces and loyalists of a traditional kingdom.

   “French Spiderman” conquered the 88-story Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur

   Larry Walters’ boyhood dream was to fly. After finishing school, Larry joined the U.S. Air Force, but was refused from pilot-training school because of poor eyesight. However, his dream remained.
   Larry, aged 33, was a truck driver in Los Angeles. One day, while sitting outside and watching jets fly overhead, an idea came to him to use weather balloons to fly.
   A few weeks later, Larry bought 42 weather balloons. He tied them to a chair and filled them with helium(氦). Then he sat down in the chair with some beer, sandwiches and a BB gun. Larry’s plan was to float about 10 meters above his backyard, enjoy a few hours in the air, and then pop some balloons with his gun to get back down. But things did not go according to Larry’s plan.
   When his friends cut the lines, Larry lifted by the 42 balloons and shot skyward at an astonishing speed. He finally settled at an altitude of 4,000 meters. Afraid to pop any of the balloons, in case he should break the balance of his “craft”, Larry sat, cold and frightened, in the sky for 14 hours.
   Airline pilots heading toward Los Angeles’ busy international airport radioed in reports of the strange sight. Larry’s presence in the sky caused numerous planes to change their routes. Eventually, Larry worked up the nerve to shoot a few balloons and landed in power lines. Uninjured, he climbed down to safety and was arrested by waiting police.
   Larry set a record for a gas-filled balloon flight. But it cost him. He was later fined $1,500 for breaking air safety regulations.
  13. What’s the BB gun used for in the passage?
  A. To protect Larry from unexpecteddanger.
  B. To fill the balloons with gas.
  C. To shoot the balloons to get him back.
  D. To fight with the waiting police.
  14. It turned out that Larry________.
   A. floated about 10 meters high
   B. remained in the sky for 14 hours
   C. set a world record in making balloons
   D. became a truck driver after the flight
  15. The underlined part in Paragraph 5 most probably means ____.
   A. watched carefully
   B. gathered his courage
   C. kept his balance
   D. climbed down
  16. It can be learned from the passage that________.
  A. Larry’s boyhood dream came true inthe end
  B. Larry’s disappearance in the sky causedmuch trouble
  C. Larry won a prize of $1,500 for his bravery
  D. Larry was not accepted as a pilot forhis poor hearing

   A new study suggests that the more teenagers watch television, the more likely they are to develop depression.
   The researchers used a national long-term survey of teenagers’ health to investigate the relationship between media use and depression. They based their findings on more than four thousand teenagers who were not depressed when the survey began in nineteen ninety-five.
   As part of the survey, the young people were asked how many hours of television or videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio.
   Media use totaled an average of five and one-half hours a day. More than two hours of that was spent watching TV.
   Seven years later, in two thousand two, more than seven percent of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was twenty-one.
   Brian Primack at the University of Pittsburgh medical school was the lead author of the new study. He says every extra hour of television meant an eight percent increase in the chances of developing signs of depression.
   The researchers say they did not find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games or radio. But the study did find that young men were more likely than young women to develop depression.
   The study was just published in the Archives of General Psychiatry this Monday. In December, the magazine Social Indicators Research published a study of activities that help lead to happy lives. They found that people who describe themselves as happy spend less time watching television than unhappy people. The study found that happy people are more likely to be socially active.
  17. How many years has the mentioned survey lasted till 2009?
   A. 7 B. 21 C. 14 D. 19
  18. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
   A. Young women were less likely than young men to develop depression.
   B. Happy people spend more time in watching TV.
   C. Playing computers has nothing to do with the depression.
   D. Teenagers spend about five and a half hours a day on media use.
  19. The topic the author wanted to express through the passage is____.
   A. Teens, television and depression
   B. Teens, media and depression
   C. adults, television and happiness
   D. women , media and happiness
  20. It can be inferred from the passage that________.
  A. teenagers should be prevented fromusing media
  B. depression is increasing at a speed of8% a year
  C. watching TV is part of teenagers’ dailylife
  D. TV has ill effect on social life

Second, form a good habit in daily life, such as washing hands frequently, gargling twice a day with warm salt water and so on. Third, make a good balance between work, rest and exercise. Only when we sleep better and exercise more can we defend ourselves against all kinds of diseases effectively. Besides, a healthy diet is also important and you are advised to eat more fresh fruit and vegetables rich in Vitamin C. Finally, avoid going to crowded places and being with people infected with cold flu.
