13、It’s no secret that reading is helpful. But can it help kids lose weight In the first study to look at the influence of literature on overweight teenagers, researchers at Duke Children’s Hospital discovered that reading the right type of novel may make a difference.
The Duke researchers asked overweight girls aged 9 to 13 who were already in a weight loss program to read a novel called Lake Rescue. It was carefully created with the help of pediatric experts (儿科专家) to include specific healthy lifestyle and weight management guidance, as well as positive messages and strong role models.
Six months later, the Duke researchers found the 31 girls who read Lake Rescue experienced a significant decrease (fall) in their BMI scores (-.71%) when compared to a control group of 14 girls who hadn’t (+.05%), explained Alexandra C．Russell, a fourth-year medical student at Duke who led the study.
“As a pediatrician, I can’t count the number of times I tell parents to buy a book that might provide useful advice, yet I’ve never been able to point to research to back up my recommendations,” says Sarah Armstrong, director of Duke’s Healthy Lifestyles Program where the research took place. “This is the first probable interventional (介入的) study that found literature can have a positive influence on healthy lifestyle changes in young girls.”
Obesity(肥胖） is becoming more widespread in children, according to the CDC (Centres for Disease Control), which reports that 16 percent of children aged 6 to 19 are overweight or obese, a number that has increased since 1980. Researchers are looking at a lot of ways to help kids stay healthy, lose weight and be more active, but Armstrong says, “most don’t work very well. The weight loss choices that are effective typically involve taking powerful medications with side effects, or require long-lasting surgical procedures.”
While the BMI decrease because of the book is small, Armstrong says any decrease in BMI is encouraging because BMI typically increases in children as they grow and develop. That’s okay as long as it follows a normal, progressing curve(曲线）. In overweight kids, however, BMI usually increases more quickly. “If their BMI percentile (百分位) goes down, it means they are either losing weight or getting tall and not gaining weight. Both are seen as positive signs in kids who are trying to lose weight,” she explains.
1．What did researchers at Duke Children’s Hospital do?
A．They tried to find out the reasons why kids are overweight.
B．They focused on the research into girls’ healthy lifestyle.
C．They studied whether literature could help lose weight.
D．They helped the girls to choose right books to read.
2．The underlined phrase “back up my recommendations” probably means “_____”.
A．influence my research B．change my opinion C．respect my study D．support my advice
3．Which of the following statements about the research is TRUE?
A．The researchers interviewed the girls and studied information.
B．Pediatric experts offered specific guidance to the research.
C．16 percent of children aged from 9 to 13 were overweight.
D．The girls read a certain novel and gave their reports.
4．What’s the finding of the research?
A．That the girls all grew tall and lost weight after 6 months.
B．That the girls showed great interest in reading literature works.
C．That the girls who read Lake Rescue had a decrease in BMI.
D．That the girls needed to take powerful medications to lose weight.

15、Some children cannot wait to grow up. Because once you become an adult, you are free to make your own decisions. More importantly, you can do all those things that you cannot do now because you are too young. So, the question is, ‘At what age do you really become an adult?' Well, people become adults at different ages in different places.
In Australia, the 18th birthday is a very important event for young Australians because it means they can do almost anything they want. They can vote, learn to drive a car, get married, join the army and even buy their own houses. However, even if they can do all these things, most Australians have to wait until their 21st birthday to really celebrate becoming an adult. This is the traditional adult age not only in Australia, but also in the USA and the UK. It is their first year of true independence (独立).Traditionally, people were given a key to their houses by their parents when they turned 21, meaning they could come and go as they like.
Even though 21 is the traditional adult age in many English-speaking countries, the law nowadays is different in each country. In the UK, you can join the army at 16 and even get married at 16 if your parents allow. Young people in the UK can learn to drive a car at 17 as in Australia, although they have to wait until they are 18 to vote.
In China, there is a different age for each of the stages of becoming an adult. You can vote and learn to drive a car when you are 18, but if you want to get married, women have to wait until they are 20 and men until they are 22. Chinese people celebrate important birthdays every 10 years--so when young people turn 20, they can expect a big party!
No matter what age you are, becoming an adult is really about learning how to be independent and responsible（负责任的）. Once you are finally able to take care of yourself and make your own decisions, then you can say that you are truly all grown-ups.
1．Which of the following are truly adults according to the passage?
A．Independent grown-ups. B．Married people.
C．People who can drive. D．People in the army.
2．At what age do Australians really become adults?
A．17. B．18. C．20. D．21.
3．What is the writer’s opinion about the age people become adults?
A．The age people become adults depends on whether they can vote or not.
B．The age people become adults depends on their own independence and responsibility.
C．The age people become adults depends on if they are eighteen years old.
D．The age people become adults depends on when they get the key to their houses.
4．Why do people in Australia get the key to the houses when they really become adults?
A．Because the law decides it.
B．Because they can leave when they want.
C．Because they can come home when they want.
D．Because it is a tradition.
5．What are adults free to do according to the passage?
A．They are free to decide when to celebrate their own birthdays.
B．They are free to look after themselves well.
C．They are free to make their own decisions.
D．They are free to make time move faster.

16、What would you do if a stranger gave you some medicine and said it would keep you thin or help you do well in exams?
This happens sometimes. The strangers want to give you drugs(毒品). A drug can change the way your mind or body works.

In China, drugs are becoming a big problem for teens. About one million people were using illegal(违法的) drugs last year, and 72% of them were young people. There were 10,000 drug users under 16.
Teenagers don’t know much about drugs, they just want to try them. Never try them, even if you are curious(好奇的).

17、It was Mother's Day. John was so busy with his work that he couldn't go back home. When he passed by a flower shop in the evening, an idea came to his mind, “I'll send Mum some roses(玫瑰).”While John was picking his flowers, a young man went inside. “How many roses can I get for only five dollars, madam?” he asked. The assistant(店员) was trying to tell him roses were as expensive as forty dollars a dozen(一打). Maybe he would be happy with carnations(康乃馨).
“No, I have to have red roses,” he said. “My mum was badly ill last year and I didn't get to spend much time with her. Now I want to get something special, it has to be roses as rose is her favourite.”
After hearing it, John said he would pay the rest of the money for the young man. Moved by both of them, the assistant said, “Well, lovely young men, thirty dollars a dozen, only for you.” Taking the roses, the young man almost jumped into the air and ran out of the shop. It was well worth twenty－five dollars that John paid to see the exciting moment. Then John paid for his dozen of roses and told the assistant to send them to his mother.
As he walked out, he felt nice. Suddenly he saw the young man crossing the street and going into a park. But soon John realized it was not a park but a cemetery(墓地). Crying, the young man carefully put down the roses, “Mum, oh, Mum, why didn't I tell you how much I loved you? God, please help me find my mum and tell her I love her.”
Seeing this, J
