【題目】 Imagine if your journey to work was from your bedroom to your living room. More and more people in the UK are doing their jobs at home.

David works as an engineer in a London factory. He's been an engineer since he left school-but he is feeling less hopeful about his future. Heavy industry in the UK has almost disappeared. David also gets tired of his long train journey to work. It can take up to two hours a day.

David's wife, Helen, seldom travels to work at all. She is a writer. After she sent her children to school, she starts to work in front of her computer screen. When she finishes her books, she sends them to her director by email.

Most people in the UK, like David come(經(jīng)常往返）to work, but an increasing number of people work as teleworkers.

So what are the advantages? Tele-workers can save hours by not traveling to work. "I hated my journey to work," says Helen. "Now all I have to do is to walk downstairs!" Many teleworkers say that working from home is much less stressful-good news for both workers and managers.

So is telecommuting( 遠(yuǎn)程辦公）for everyone? "It, hard at first ",says Helen," because our living mom is also my office, and disciplining yourself(自我控制）to work from home can be difficult.

But overall, I love it.

【1】More and more people in the UK, doing their jobs at home.

【2】David is also interested in his long train journey to work

【3】When David's wife finishes her books, she sends them electronically to her director.

【4】Teleworkers can't save hours by working at home.

【5】The article mainly tells us a new way of working.

【題目】 Instead of gobbling(狼吞虎咽) your food, try eating more slowly. It may help you drop those unwanted pounds. The conclusion is from a new study by Chinese researcher.

The study showed that compared with people who gobbled their food, those who ate at a normal speed were 29 percent less likely to be obese(肥胖的). But those who ate slowly were up to 42 percent less likely to obese. In addition, people who ate slowly tended (往往會(huì)) to be healthier and have a healthier lifestyle than those who ate quickly or at a normal speed. “However, this study could not prove that speed eating causes or stops obesity,” the researcher noted.

"Slow eating has its advantages and a few disadvantages ,” said Samantha Heller from New York City. “on the one hand , slow eating gives our body time to register a sense of satisfaction and fullness, so we eat less. We are more likely to enjoy a taste of food. On the other hand, the longer people sit in front of food, the more food they will eat, ”she said.

“Speed eating appears to be far more harmful. People who eat quickly, as many of us do, gobble far more food than they need. In many European countries, slow eating is a way of life,” Heller said. In America, speed eating takes the lead. Thus we need to encourage people to have a change, learn the way of slower eating from Europeans and get a true enjoyment of food.

【1】The researchers who found eating slowly may help you drop pounds come from ______.

A.AmericaB.JapanC.EuropeD.China

【2】Who is the least likely to be obese according to the second paragraph？

A.People who eat slowly.B.People who eat little.

C.People who eat at a normal speed.D.People who eat quickly.

【3】The underlined word “register” probably means ______ in Chinese.

A.意識(shí)到B.注冊(cè)C.缺乏D.抵制住

【4】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A.People who ate slowly tended to be healthier than those who ate quickly.

B.It is sure that eating quickly can cause obesity.

C.Speed eating is harmful to us.

D.The longer you sit in front of food, the more food you will eat.

【5】This passage mainly talks about _______.

A.The ways of avoiding being obeseB.the ways of eating slowly

C.why we should try eating more slowlyD.the disadvantages of being obese

科目：初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源： 題型：

【題目】 Everyone has traits (特性) that make us who we are. We have physical traits, like red hair, long legs and funny-looking toes. We also have character traits including humor, warmth, creativity and so on.

Certain physical traits are fully inherited (遺傳), such as blue eyes and knobby knees. About 25,000 to 35,000 genes (基因) are in a single cell in the human body. These genes carry the traits that are passed down genetically from parents to their children.

Many traits exist between inheritance and development — the interaction with environment. One example is body shape. It tends to be passed down from parents. But once diet becomes a factor, environment begins to play an important role in how the body develops. Body shape is a trait that is a mixture of inheritance from parents and influence of environment.

So lots of our most important traits have been learned, rather than inherited. For example, if you’re really great at video games, it’s not because your parents passed down the skills in genes. It’s because you have practiced a lot of video games and developed those skills yourself. If you have kids who turn out to be great at video games, it is because they put in the hours, learned the skills, and memorized the moves that are necessary to play the video games well.

Of course, some of us have brains that are more advantageous to video game playing. Say you were born with a large and powerful part of the brain that controls your hand-eye coordination. That is inherited. What you do with it, how you choose to develop that advantage, is up to you.

You can pierce your nose or get a tattoo (紋身) — it doesn’t matter how much you change your body during the lifetime. None of those things will turn into genetic material to be passed down to the next generation. However, if your children grow up in an environment with role models who are pierced and covered in tattoos, they are more likely to get piercings and tattoos!

【1】 is a physical trait that is fully inherited.

A.The eye colorB.The special diet

C.The body shapeD.The pierced nose

【2】What does the underlined word “That ” refer to ?

A.Video game playing.B.Advantageous brains.

C.The shape of your brain.D.Your hand-eye coordination.

【3】According to the passage, the writer believes that .

A.character traits can hardly change during the lifetime

B.the skills of video game playing are passed down to kids

C.a kid’s hand-eye coordination isn’t related to inheritance

D.environment plays an important role in traits development

【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.Why are Traits Important?B.How does Inheritance Influence Traits?

C.Where do Traits Come from?D.What are Physical and Character Traits?

Let's Save Our Language Heritage

Each year on Feb 21, UNESCO holds an International Mother Language Day（IMLD）. The event is to draw attention to the disappearance of the world's languages：dozens of them are vanishing each year. UNESCO sees this as a tragedy（悲劇）, and with good reason.

What happens when a language dies out? Something huge is lost—not just sounds and marks but the way that people make sense of the world and communicate with each other. And it is through language that we have culture and tradition. Kill a language and all this is killed too.

Through IMLD, more people are becoming aware of the destruction of linguistic（語(yǔ)言學(xué)的）diversity in modern times and trying to stop it. Google's 2012 Endangered Languages Project is a good example. Speakers and protectors of endangered languages upload text, audio and video files to the project site. They want to introduce people to the wonders of the way that people communicate and express themselves around the world.

The Myaamia Project is a similar kind of effort. This is an attempt to revive（重新使用）the language spoken by the Miami and Illinois tribes（部落）of the US. Project members work to encourage people to study and communicate with this language, which formally died out in the 1960s.

These activities, which breathe life into languages on the verge（邊緣）of extinction, might seem old-fashioned to some. But those who work to keep languages alive are not enslaved（束縛）to the past. They are enthusiastic young people who design apps and use social media to champion their activities. As the US-based social event calendar website Upcoming puts it, they“spread the word" to save the word.

So, while the problem of disappearing languages remains a very serious one, there is hope. We all have a special feeling for our mother tongue, although those of us who speak one that is not endangered might not always be aware of it. This is why we should recall（回憶）the wise words of the late president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela：“If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart.”

【1】When is International Mother Language Day?

【2】What happens when a language dies out?

【3】What is Google's 2012 Endangered Languages Project?

【4】What can we know from Paragraph 5?

【5】Why did the author mention Nelson Mandela's words?
