26、A small piece of fish each day may keep the heart doctor away. That’s the finding of a study of Dutchmen in which deaths from heart disease were more than 50 percent lower among those who consumed (吃) at least an ounce of salt water fish per day compared to those who never ate fish.

The Dutch research is one of three human studies that give strong scientific support to the long-held belief that eating fish can provide health benefits, particularly to the heart.

Heart disease is the number-one killer in the United States, with more than 550,000 deaths occurring from heart attacks each year. But previous research has shown that the level of heart disease is lower in cultures that consume more fish than Americans do. There are fewer heart disease deaths, for example, among the Eskimos of Greenland, who consume about 14 ounces of fish a day, and among the Japanese, whose daily fish consumption averages more than 3 ounces.

For 20 years, the Dutch study followed 852 middle-aged men, 20 percent of whom ate no fish. At the start of the study, average fish consumption was about two-thirds of an ounce each day, with more men eating lean fish than fatty fish.

During the next two decades, 78 of the men died from heart disease. The fewest deaths were among the group who regularly ate fish, even at levels far lower than those of the Japanese or Eskimos. This relationship was true regardless of other factors such as age, high blood pressure, or blood cholesterol (胆固醇) levels.

【1】The passage is mainly about ________.

A. the effect of fish eating on people’s health

B. the high incidence of heart disease in some countries

C. the daily fish consumption of people in different culture

D. the changes in people’s diet

【2】We can infer from the passage that there are fewer heart disease deaths ________.

A. in the countries of the yellow-skin race

B. in the countries with good production of fish

C. in the countries with high consumption of fish

D. in highly-developed countries

【2】The underlined part “This relationship” may refer to the connection between ________ and the level of heart disease.

A. the amount of fish eaten

B. the kind of fish eaten

C. regular fish-eating

D. people of different areas

【4】In which section of a newspaper can we read this passage?

A. Ads.   B. Movies.

C. Briefs. D. Health and Diet.

27、Most people buy a lot of gifts just before Christmas. But some people think we buy too much. They have started a special day called Buy Nothing Day. 【1】

Buy Nothing Day is on November 29. It’s 25 days before Christmas. It’s after Thanksgiving and often the first day of Christmas shopping. 【2】

The idea for Buy Nothing Day started in Vancouver, British Columbia. 【3】 In California, parents and children get together to read stories, sing songs, and paint pictures. The children talk about why they don’t need a lot of toys. This year, in Manchester, England, people dressed up in costumes to tell people that we buy too much.

In Albuquerque, New Mexico, high school students wanted to tell other students about Buy Nothing Day. They organized a spaghetti dinner to give people information about Buy Nothing Day. 【4】 They made posters and talked to other students about it. The dinner was a big success, and many students agreed not to buy anything on November 29. The students at high schools liked the idea of this new tradition. 【5】

A．They don’t want anyone to go shopping on that day.

B．Now people all over the world celebrate Buy Nothing Day.

C．Many people think highly of the idea of Buy Nothing Day.

D．They asked restaurants in the neighborhood to donate the food.

E．Buy Nothing Day has successfully persuaded people not to buy anything.

F．At this time, we see ads in newspapers and on TV telling us to “Buy! Buy! Buy!”

G．Next year, they want to have another dinner to tell more people about Buy Nothing Day.

28、Is the “Go to College” Message Overdone?

Even in a weak job market, the old college try isn’t the answer for everyone. A briefing paper from the Brookings Institution warns that “we may have overdone the message” on college, senior fellow Isabel Sawhill said.

“We’ve been telling students and their families for years that college is the only way to succeed in the economy and of course there’s a lot of truth to that,” Ms. Sawhill said. “On average it does pay off… But if you load up on a whole lot of student debt and then you don’t graduate, that is a very bad situation.”

One comment that people often repeat among the years of slow job growth has been the value of education for landing a job and advancing in a career. April’s national unemployment rate stood at 7.5%, according to the Labor Department. The unemployment rate for high-school graduates over 25 years old who hadn’t attended college was 7.4%, compared with 3.9% for those with a bachelor’s degree or more education. The difference is even bigger among those aged 16—24. The jobless rate for those with only a high school diploma in that age group is about 20%. At the same time, recent research by Canadian economists warns that a college degree is no guarantee of promising employment.

Ms. Sawhill pointed out that among the aspects that affect the value of a college education is the field of one’s major: Students in engineering or other sciences end up earning more than ones who major in the arts or education. The cost of tuition (学费) and the availability of financial aid are other considerations, with public institutions generally a better financial bargain than private ones.

She suggested two ways to improve the situation: increasing vocational (职业的)-technical training programs and taking a page from Europe’s focus on early education rather than post-secondary learning. “The European countries put a little more attention to getting people prepared in the primary grades,” she said. “Then they have a higher bar for whoever goes to college—but once you get into college, you’re more likely to be highly subsidized (资助).”

She also is a supporter of technical training—to teach students how to be plumbers, welders and computer programmers—because “employers are desperate” for workers with these skills.

【1】People usually think that         .

A．the cost of technical schooling is a problem

B．technical skills are most important for finding a job

C．one will not succeed without a college degree

D．there is an increased competition in getting into a college

【2】What does the underlined part “taking a page from” (in Para.5) possibly mean?

A．Learning from.

B．Changing from.

C．Differing from.

D．Hearing from.

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A．Public institutions charge more for education.

B．European universities are stricter with students.

C．Canadian students prefer to major in engineering.

D．Students with certain skills are in great demand.

【4】Ms. Sawhill may probably agree that          .

A．technical training is more important than college education

B．too much stress has been put on the value of college degrees

C．a college degree will ensure promising employment

D．it’s easier for art students to find favorite jobs

29、How to Focus on Studying

Unless you have a strong desire to learn the information or develop a skill, it can be hard to focus all of your attention. Here are some of the best tricks that help you increase your focus on studying.

【1】 Chose a right spot. And, in order to concentrate, you must remove the things distracting (分心) you. Put away mobile devices. Turn off the TV. Sit away from people making loud noises.

Come prepared. 【2】 Have pens, paper, textbooks or anything necessary at hand. You should take care of everything outside of studying before you sit down to focus. If not, you’ll just end up getting up repeatedly.

Make a schedule. Aim to work for 30-60 minute periods with 5-10 minute breaks in between. It is a lot easier to push yourself for a set period of time, if you know you have a break coming up. 【3】 Studying the same thing for too long is an invitation to boredom (枯燥).

Make lists and break down tasks. Write down your study goals for that day. Make sure the task is within your ability. It works for any task like reading a book, studying for a test, or whatever. And if you need to write 10 pages in a week, schedule yourself to write 2 pages a day for 5 days. 【4】

Vary your study techniques 【5】 Variety will keep you interested in your studies and make your time more efficient. By studying with different techniques, your brain will process the information differently, thus increasing the chance of keeping the information.

A．Find a suitable place.

B．Get rid of distractions.

C．Break the task into manageable parts.

D．Don’t limit yourself to one study method.

E．Be sure to have all the materials needed to work

F．Set a schedule to make full use of your study time.

G．Besides, schedule yourself to study different subjects.
