14、esearch Council found that elderly people who could still give a firm handshake and walk at a quick pace were likely to outlive their slower peers.They found simple measures of physical capability like shaking hands, walking, getting up from a chair and balancing on one leg were related to the life
15、expectancy, even after accounting for age, sex and body size. The study is the first to provide a comprehensive (综合的) view of the existing data from 33 studies. “These measures have been used in population-based research for quite a long time,” said Rachel Cooper of the Medical Research Councils Uni
16、t for Lifelong Health and Aging. “They may be useful indicators for subsequent health.”Cooper, whose study appears in the British Medical Journal, said more studies are needed to clarify whether the measures would be helpful to doctors as a screening tool. “I wouldnt suggest that we roll them out in
17、to clinical practice tomorrow, but it is possible that they could be used in the future,” she told the media.The researchers examined 33 studies involving tens of thousands of people, most of whom were aged over 60 but living in the community rather than in hospital or care homes. The researchers fo
18、und that those with the strongest hand grasps tended to live longer than those with weak grips. The death rate over the period of the studies for people with weak handshakes was 67 percent higher than for people with a firm grip.The slowest walkers were nearly three times more likely to die during t
19、he study period than swifter walkers. The people who were slowest to get up from a chair had about double the death rate compared to the quick risers.“Those people in the general population who have higher physical capability levels are likely to live longer,” Cooper said.1 Which of the following ar
20、e measures of physical capability according to the passage?a. shaking hands b. balancing c. getting up d. weight lifting e. walkingA. a, b, c, e B. a, c, d, e C. b, c, d, e D. a, b, d, e2 What does Cooper think about the measures of physical capability?A. They are of little help to doctors.B. They c
21、ant be used as a screening tool.C. They can be applied to medical practice.D. They are potentially beneficial to people.3 What can be inferred from the passage?A. People who walk quickly and shake hands firmly have a lower death rate.B. People with the strongest hand grasp are more outgoing.C. Most
22、of the people who received the study live in the community.D. People who always sit are more likely to die than those who stand.4 In which part of a newspaper would you most probably find this passage?A. Sports.B. Health.C. Economics.D. Culture. If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time
23、, they become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this. Yet there are many people who do not seem to know that ones memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by e
24、xercising it regularly. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his pare
25、nts are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is really his own fault. Not all of us can become very strong or very clever, but all of us can improve our memory by the same means practice.Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have a better m
26、emory than those who can? Why is this? Of course, because people who cant read or write have to remember things: they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember dates, prices, names, songs and stories, so their memory is exercised all the time. So if you want a good memory, l
27、earn from those who cannot read or write: practice remembering.5According to the passage, few people know that _.A. arms or legs become weak if they are not used for some timeB. when they start using their arms or legs again, they slowly become strong againC. a persons memory becomes weak if he does
28、 not practice remembering thingsD. it is their own fault if their arms or legs are weak6The author thinks that if a person has a poor memory, _.A. it is his own fault B. his parents are to blameC. he is just unlucky D. his arms must be weak7From Paragraph 3, we can learn that _.A. people who cant re
29、ad are cleverer than those who canB. people who cant write are cleverer than those who canC. a little notebook helps people who cannot read or write get a better memoryD. people who practice remembering regularly have a better memory8The passage mainly tells us _.A. how to get our arms and legs stro
30、nger B. how to improve our memoryC. how to read and write D. how to remember dates and prices9Once when I was a teenager, my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus. One family between us and the ticket counter made a big impression on me. There were eight children, all prob
31、ably under the age of 12. Their clothes were clean. The children were well-behaved, all of them standing in line, two-by-two behind their parents, holding hands.The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted. He proudly said, “Please let me buy eight childrens tickets and two adult tick
32、ets so I can take my family to the circus.”The ticket lady told him the price. The wifes head dropped, and the mans lip began to quiver (抖动). The father asked, “How much did you say?”The ticket lady told him the price again.The man didnt have enough money.Seeing what was going on, my dad put his han
33、d into his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground (We were not wealthy either). My father reached down, picked up the bill, tapped the man on the shoulder and said, “Excuse me, sir, this fell out of your pocket.”The man knew what was going on. He wasnt begging for money but certa
34、inly thanked the help in a difficult, embarrassing situation. He looked straight into my dads eyes, took my dads hand in both of his, and with a tear streaming down his cheek, he replied, “Thank you, sir. This really means a lot to me and my family.”My father and I went back to our car and drove hom
35、e. We didnt go to the circus that night, but we didnt go without.【小题1】Why was the writer impressed by the family?A. Because the family was very large.B. Because the family was very happy.C. Because the family was very noisy.D. Because the family was very poor.【小题2】When the ticket lady told them the
36、price, the wife .A. hardly heard B. felt disappointedC. hardly understood D. felt confused【小题3】Which of the following words can be best used to describe the writers father?A. Patient. B. Careful. C. Honest. D. Kind.【小题4】What did the writer mean by saying “we didnt go without”?A. They returned home w
37、ith another kind of joy.B. They were very happy to meet the family.C. They wanted to go to the circus very much.D. They had already seen the circus before. Imagine this situation. You pass a group of people. The people are talking to each other. You cannot hear what they are saying. But suddenly the
38、y start laughing. What would you think? Would you think they were laughing at something funny that one of them said? Orbe honest with yourselfwould you think they were laughing at you? Yes, you.Being laughed at is a common fear. But a major study published in two thousand and nine found that this fe
39、ar is not the same around the world. It differs from culture to culture.People in Finland were the least likely to believe that people laughing in their presence were making fun of them. Less than ten percent of Finns in the study said they would think that, compared to eighty percent of people in T
40、hailand.Some people in the study said they felt unsure of themselves in social situations but hid their feelings of insecurity. Others said they avoided social situations where they had been laughed at before.The study found that people in Turkmenistan and Cambodia were more likely to be in the firs
41、t group. They would hide their feelings of insecurity if they were around other peoples laughter. But people in Iraq, Egypt and Jordan were more likely to try to avoid such situations if they felt they had been laughed at before.Shy people often avoid situations that would force them into close cont
42、act with other people. They worry that something they say or do will make other people laugh at them. But some people worry much more than others. They may have a disorder called gelotophobia. Gelos is a Greek word. It means laughter. Phobia means fear. This fear of laughter can be truly sad for tho
43、se who live with it. It can affect how they lead their lives.In the study, a team from the University of Zurich led more than ninety researchers from around the world. They wanted to understand the difference between normal shyness and true gelotophobia. Another purpose of the study was to compare t
44、he levels of fear of being laughed at in different cultures. The researchers surveyed more than twenty-two thousand people in forty-two different languages.
