The new generation of Australians is fast becoming fat, pale and lazy. A love of junk food, television and computer games has sent the country’s waistline increasing, with Australians weighing as the world’s second fattest nation after the United States.
Rather than hitting the beaches, thousands of young Australians are heading for the bed with a bag of popcorn. Today one child out of every four is classified as overweight. The trend is squashing the widely-held image of Australians as being sun-bronzed and super fit. “The rate of getting too fat, especially among children, seems to be going up faster in Australia than anywhere else in the world, but we don’t know why,” said Dr Peter Williams, president of the Dietitians Association of Australia.
People from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, report that 60 percent of men, 50 percent of women and 25 percent of children are overweight or obese. It is a huge jump from 5 percent in the 1960s. A habitable lifestyle and a changing diet have doubled the number of obese Australians and tripled the amount of fat children in the past period. As a result of this increase, direct health costs related to childhood fat have risen to about A$830 million a year. Data shows childhood fat in Australia is rising at the rate of one percent a year, a trend which suggests half of all young Australians will be overweight.
39. What’s the main problem of today’s Australians according to the passage?
A. People love snack food, television and computer games too much.
B. With the improvement of living conditions, people become fat and strong.
C. People, especially the children become fat and less strong.
D. People spend too much trying to lose weight.
40. Which of the following statements is true?
A. Now more and more people realized the importance of losing weight.
B. With the help of the government, people are trying to change their lifestyle and diet.
C. In the past ten years, the number of the fat children has doubled.
D. If people don’t control the rate of getting too fat within the next twenty years, half of young Australians will be overweight.
41. What does the underlined word “obese” mean?
A. obey B. very fat C. thin D. healthy

New Zealand’s culture is rich because of the mixture of Polynesian and European cultures. The influence of Maori, Pacific islands, European and Asian cultures makes New Zealand a colorful place with many different customs and foods to enjoy. New Zealand is famous all over the world for things like bungee jumping, rugby, sheep, and a beautiful view. Its national icon is the Kiwibird, which is also a popular term meaning a New Zealander. The people in New Zealand love sports such as football and yachting, the great outdoors, coffee, and the arts.
For a small country it gets lots of attention. Kiwis believe that they can do anything and love a challenge to prove it. That “can do” spirit has seen them excel in many areas.
New Zealand has a group of icons and many objects that help define what it is to be a Kiwi. These things are known as Kiwiana and include things like football and bungee jumping. Famous New Zealanders include Sir Edmund Hillary and Ernest Rutherford.

During the meal, you should be careful not to leave a spoon in a soup bowl, a coffee cup or other dish. The coffee spoon should be on the saucer, and the soup spoon should be on the plate under the bowl. When you are having soup, make as little noise as you can and use the side of your spoon, not the front. Do not pick up your soup bowl to drink the last drops of your soup from the bottom of the bowl.
Very often, there are only one main course and a salad, followed by something sweet. If you haven’t had enough, say “Oh, it’s delicious.” And ask for some more chicken, steak, or whatever you have just had. The hostess will be very happy that you like her cooking and will give you more. But if you follow the Chinese way of being polite and say, “No, thank you.” when the hostess offers you more, you may starve later. Americans will never force you to eat more. Yet it is not polite to keep silent and not to talk to the person next to you. It is good manners to use your silverware carefully so that they don’t make any noise. When the coffee comes, drink it from your cup. The coffee spoon should be put on the saucer while you are drinking. And smoking, of course, is rarely seen at a dinner table. Well, when the meal is finished, the guests put their napkins on the table and stand up. The men help the ladies move their chairs.
After the dinner, the guests usually stay for an hour or two, and then they would say, “well, I’m afraid I must get going now.” The host and hostess would, of course, ask everyone to stay longer. “What? Already? Won’t you have some more coffee?” The guests might say, “I’d love to, but I have to be up early tomorrow. Thank you for a most enjoyable evening. Good night.”
If you stay overnight or for the weekend, it is nice to send a thank-you note to the host or hostess the following day, very often with a small gift such as a box of chocolate later or some flowers as a sign of thanks for their hospitality(好客).
45. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. To make the hostess happy, you should ask for more food even if you are full.
B. During the dinner, you’d better make as little noise as possible.
C. It’s polite to leave a spoon in a soup bowl.
D. Never talk with people at table.
46. What does the underlined word “course” mean?
A. A series of lessons. B. Any of the separate parts of a meal.
C. A moment in time. D. Direction or the routine
47. The passage implies that________.
A. Chinese customs are similar to American ones.
B. if you are polite, the hostess will make you eat more food.
C. different nations have different customs.
D. Chinese are more hospitable than Americans.

Fear and pain are two of the most useful things that people and animals have---if they are used properly. If fire did not hurt them when it burned, children would play in it until their hands burned. In the same way, if pain existed but fear did not, children would burn themselves again and again. Fear would not warn them to keep away from the fire that hurt them before. A really fearless soldier ---and some do exist---is not a good soldier because he is soon killed. A dead soldier is no good for an army. Fear and pain are two guards. Without them, people and animals might soon die out. However, fear should be used properly. If, for example, you never go out of your house because the danger of being hit by a car, you are letting fear rule you too much. Even in your house you are not completely safe. An airplane may crash on your house. Ants may eat parts of your roof so that it falls on you. You may get cancer from the dust!The important thing is not to let fear rule you. Use fear as your servant and guide. Fear will warn you of dangers. Then you have to decide what to do. In many cases, you can easily avoid the danger. For example, if you see a car coming towards you, fear warns you and you jump out of the way. You are safe again. In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to avoid the danger. For example, you can’t stop an airplane from crashing into your house. You may not want to go and live in a desert where there are no airplanes either. In this case, fear has given you a warning. You have looked at it and decided what to do, so fear of this danger is no longer useful and you have to try to overcome it.
48. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. A really fearless soldier is difficult to kill.
B. Fear and pain can sometimes protect people from dying.
C. If you are careful, you can avoid any danger.
D. It’s safer to stay home than go outside.
49. It is implied but not stated that _____________.
A. fear is always something helpful
B. fear is
