         New research shows girls who regularly have family meals are much less 36 to adopt all kinds of extreme weight control 37 , such as vomiting(催吐), using laxatives (泻药) or diet pills.
        A study surveying more than 2,500 American high school students found that gifts who ate five or more family meals a week had a much healthier relationship with food in later life.
        The research, published in international journal Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, polled students aged 13 to 17 in 1999 who were 38 up five years later. Regular family meals were found to have a protective effect 39 of the girls' age, weight, socio-economic status, dieting 40 or relationship with her family.
        Experts say doctors should encourage families to have dinner at the table instead of on the couch in front of the television to 41 against serious eating disorders.
        Belinda Dalton, director of eating disorders clinic The Oak House, said eating with family helped "no'mnalise (正常化) " young people's relationship with food.
        " When adolescents are feeling that they're not coping they turn to something that they can control and food is something 42 and accessible for them to control. Clearly, if they're sitting with their family on a regular basis then their family can be more in control of their eating," Ms Dalton said.
        "It's about, young people feeling connected with their family and that builds self-esteem and sense of worth and that can 43 very actively against someone developing an eating disorder. " An eating disorders expert, Kirsty Greenwood, said meal times were often difficult for sufferers. "It is 44 that they feel very ashamed of their eating habits and often won't eat with other people. Perhaps it's becausee they haven't 45 the importance of the family meal in their growing up," she said.

根据以下内容，回答47-56题。
        Is the Internet Making Us Forgetful?
        A. A tourist takes a picture of the Empire State Building on his iPhone, deletesit, then takes another one from a different angle. But what happened to that first image? The delete button on our cameras, phones, and computers is a function we use often without thinking, yet it remains a fantastic concept.
        Most things in the world don't just disappear. Not our thrown away plastic water bottles. Not the keys to the apartment. Not our earliest childhood memories.
        B. "It is possible that every memory you have ever experienced that made its way into your long-term memory is still buried somewhere in your head," Michael S. Malone writes in his new book The Guardian of All Things: The Epic Story of Human Memory. It is both a blessing and a curse that we cannot voluntarily erase our memories. Like it or not, we are stuck with our experiences. It's just one of the many ways that human beings differ from digital cameras.
        C. Yet, humans are relying more and more on digital cameras and less on our own minds. Malone tells the story of how, over time, humans have externalized (外化) their internal memories, departing themselves from the experiences they own. The book is a history in time order--from the development of paper, libraries, cameras, to microchips—about how we place increasing trust in technology.
        D. Is it a good thing for electronic devices and the Internet to store our memories for us? When we allow that to happen, who do we become? Will our brains atrophy (萎缩) ff we chose not to exercise them? Malone, who is a Silicon Valley reporter, shows us the technological progress, but backs away from deeper philosophical questions. His love for breaking news--the very idea of breakthrough--isapparent, but he fails to address the more distressing implications.
        E. The biology of human memory is largely mysterious. It is one of the remaining brain functions whoselocation neuroscientists can't place, Memory nerve cells are distributed all over the brain, hidden in itsgray wTinkles like money behind couch cushions. "What a plunge," opens Virginia Woolfs Mrs.Dalloway, as Clarissa tosses open her French windows and is transported into her remembered past."Live in the moment" is a directive we often hear these days in yoga class, but our ability to weave inund out of the past is what makes life interesting and also difficult for humans.
        F. The Neanderthal (穴居人的) brain was powerful, but lacking a high-capaciW memory, "forevertrapped in the/low," according to Malone. The stories, images, and phrases that we turn over in ore'minds while lying awake in bed were different for them. Neanderthals could receive the stimuli of theworld--colors, sounds, smells--but had limited ways to organize or access that information. Even theterm Homo sapienns (晚期智人) reveals how our brains work differently from our ancestors.Translated from the Latin, it means knowing man. Not only do we know, but we know that we know.Our self-consciousness, that ability not only to make memories but to recall them, is what defines us.
        G. Short-term memories are created by the compound of certain proteins in a cell and long-term memoriesare created by released magnesium (镁). Each memory is then inserted like handprints in concrete. This is what we know about the physical process of memory making. Why a person might rememberthe meal they ate before their parents announced a divorce, but not the announcement itself, remainsa scientific mystery.
        H.The appearance of language is linked to memory, and many early languages were simply devices that aid memory. They served as a method for sharing memories, an early form of fact-checking that also expands the lifetime of a memory. The Library of Alexandria is an example of a population's desire tocatalog a common memory and situate it safely outside their own short-lived bodies.
        I. The ancient Rondos even had a discipline called Ars Memorativa, or the art of memory. They honored extraordinary acts of memorization, just as they honored extraordinary feats in battle, and Cicero excelled at this. Memorization was an art that could be polished using patterns, imaginary structures and landscapes. Without training, the human brain can hold only about seven items in short-term memory.
        J.The invention of computer memory changes everything. We now have "Moore's Law", the notion that memory chips will double in performance every 18 months. Memory plug base. continues to decrease in size while our memories accumulate daily. Because of growing access to the Internet, Malone argues that individualized memory matters less and less. Schoolchildren today take open-book tests or with acalculator. "What matters now is not one's ownership of knowledge, but one's skill at accessing it and analyzing it," he writes. However, something is lost. We have unlimited access to a wealth of information, yet little of it belongs to us.
        K. Human beings have a notion of self, a subjective world particular to us, thanks to our high lycomplicated and individualized brains that Malone compares to "the roots and branches of a tree". We own our own hardware, and we all remember differently. The Internet offers us access to information, but it is really a part of the external world of colors and sounds that even Neanderthals could receive. A world in which all our memories are stored on electronic devices and all our answers can be foundby Googling is a world closer to the Neanderthars than to a high-tech, idealized future. I don't remember when I first learned the word déjà vu but I do remember the shirt I wore on the firt day of 9th grade. Memory is a tool, but it can also teach us about what we think is important. Human memory is a way for us to learn about ourselves.

Compared with Neanderthals and Homo sapiens, human beings have the particular .feature of being able to make memories and recall them.

Malone writes in his book that humans increasingly rely more on technology than their minds.

The ancient Romans had a discipline called the art of memory and they honored remarkable acts of memorization.

Malone argues that one's skill at accessing and analyzing knowledge is more important than one'sownership of knowledge.

Malone fails to discuss in his book the deeper philosophical implications of the technology progress.

If we rely on electronic devices and Internet searching too much. we probably have a world more similar to Neanderthal's rather than closer to a high-tech, idealized future.

We cannot automatically erase our memories, which has both advantages and disadvantages.

The instruction of "live in the moment" in yoga class is hard to achieve because humans have the memory of the past.

Because we human beings have sophisticated and personalized brains, we have the notion of self.

The Library of Alexandria is a good illustration to show people's desire to catalog the memory.

Questions57-61 are based on the following paassage.
        Virtually unknown a decade ago, big online teacher education program snow dwarf their traditional competitors, outstripping (超过) even the largeststate university teachers' colleges.
        A USA Today analysis of newly released U. S. Department of Education data finds that four big universities, operating mostly online, have quickly become the largest education schools in the USA. Last year the four--three of which are for-profit--awarded one in 16 bachelor' sdegrees and post-graduate awards and nearly one in 11 advanced education awards, including master' sdegrees and doctorates.
        A decade ago, in 2001, the for-profit University of Phoenix awarded 72 education degrees to teachers, administrators and other school personnel through its online program, according to federal data. Last year, it awarded nearly 6,000 degrees, more than any other university.
        Traditional colleges still produce most of the bachelor's degrees in teaching. But online schools such as Phoenix and Walden University awarded thousands more master's degrees than even the top traditional schools, all of which are pushing to offer online coursework.
        "We shouldn't be surprised because the whole industry is moving in that direction," said Robert Pianta, dean of the University of Virginia's Curry School of Education. "The thing I would be interested in knowing is the degree to which they are simply pushing these things out in order to generate dollars or whether there's some real innovation in there. "
        For-profit universities have been the subject of intense examining in Congress. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, who chairs the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, last week released findings from a two-year investigation showing that they cost more than comparable not-for-profit schools and have higher dropout rates. For-profits, the investigation found, enroll about 10% of U. S. college students butaccount for nearly 50% of student loan defaults.
        Online education schools, many of which have open-enrollment policies similar to community colleges, say their offerings are high quality.
        Meredith Curley, dean of the University of Phoenix College of Education, said many students are returning to complete their education after starting families and changing careers. Their average age is 33, she said, and many work while they attend classes. Becky Lodewyck, Phoenix's associate dean, said teaching candidates must complete at least 100 hours of field experience. She said online classes are "incredibly dynamic" and have the potential to hold students more accountable than face-to-face classes.

"You can't hide," she said. "Everyone participates--everyone has to be fully engaged in the work." It can be learned from the second paragraph that four big universities______

A. have become the largest online schools in the US
B. are the biggest for-profit schools in the US
C. occupy important position in education in the US
D. focus on developing advanced education in the US

The University of Phoenix______.

A. enlarged the scale of its online education coursework
B. made great profit from online education coursework
C. surpassed the traditional universities in scale
D. became the largest university providing online education

Robert Pianta said he was interested in knowing______.

A. where the whole industry was moving to
B. whether there's some real innovation in there
C. how much money the whole industry would earn
D. whether students could get something new

According to the findings released by Tom Harkin, for-profit universities______.

A. account for a large part of students loan defaults
B. cost more than not-for-profit schools
C. have more dropouts than not-for-profits
D. have higher enrollment rate than not-for-profits

Why does Becky Lodewyck say online classes have the potential to hold students more accountable?

A. Because many students have worked before they return to education.
B. Because students must complete at least 100 hours of field experience.
C. Because everyone has to be fully engaged in the work.
D. Because students have a strong sense of responsibility.

Questions 62-66 are based on the following passage.
        Amid a summer of record-setting heat, a new survey f'mds that most of Generation X's (20世纪60年代到70年代初出生的美国人) young and middle-age adults are tminformed and unconcerned about climate change.
        Only about 5% of Gen Xers, now 32 to 52 years old, are "alarmed" and 18% "concerned" about climate change, reports the University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research on Tuesday.         

        Two-thirds, or 66% , of those surveyed last year said they aren't sure global warming is happening and 10% said they don't believe it's occurring.
        "Most Generation Xers are surprisingly disengaged, dismissive or doubtful about whether global climate change is happening and they don't spend much time worrying about it," said author Jon D.Miller.
        The report comes as several Obama administration officials have recently linked extreme weather to climate change. In a report last week, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration cited six weather events last year and said that atmospheric changes caused by the burning of fossil fuels made
        Texas' heat wave, for example, 20 times more likely than it would have been in the 1960s.
        The Generation X survey of about 3,000 adults, the fourth in a continuing series, found a small butstatistically significant decline in Gen Xer's attention to climate change. In 2011, 16% said they followed the issue very or moderately closely, down from 2296 in 2009.
        Why are Gen Xere so indifferent? The report, funded by the National Science Foundation, citesclimate change's complexity, pressing economic concerns and "issue fatigue". It finds educated adults tend to be more concerned about the issue. It also finds partisan (党派的) differences; nearly half ofliberal Democrats were concerned or alarmed compared to zero percent of conservative Republicans.
        Miller said he expected that, given climate change's expected impact on future generations, parents of young children would be more concerned than those without kids.
        "Not so," he said. " Generation X adults without minor children were. slightly more alarmed aboutclimate change than were parents. The difference is small, but it is in the opposite direction than weexpected. "' Miller said the report suggests that while there's broad awareness of climate change, manyGen Xers prefer to focus on more immediate issues such as jobs and schools.

What do we know about the Generation X according to the passage?

A. They are a group of people receiving little education.
B. They don't believe global warming will affect them.
C. They don't care very much about climate change.
D. They never think that climate change will happen.

We can infer from Para. 4 that the American government______.

A. links extreme weather to climate change since last week
B. is concerned about the consequence of climate change
C. tries hard to inform people the influence of climate change
D. is opposed to the burning of fossil fuels in the country

What does "issue fatigue" (Line 2, Para. 6) mean?

A. Generation Xers are not informed about the issue.
B. Generation Xers are conservative about the issue.
C. Generation Xers are not concerned about the issue.
D. Generation Xers are tired of the issue.

Many Generation X parents don't worry so much about the influence of climate change on their children because______.

A. they are not aware of climate change
B. they don't care about climate change
C. they believe the situation will be better
D. they focus more on immediate issues

What is the author's attitude toward Generation X's indifference?

A. Objective.
B. Critical.
C. Supportive.
D. Neutral.

中华民族的传统文化博大精深，源远流长。早在2000多年前，就产生了以孔盂为代表的儒家学说(Confucianism)和以老子和庄子为代表的道家学说(Taoism)，以及其他许多也在中国思想史上有地位的学说和学派(doctrines)。这就是有名的诸子百家(the masters’ hundred schools)。从孔夫子到孙中山。中华民族的传统文化有许多宝贵的思想和品质，许多人民性和民主性的好东西。比如，强调仁爱、强调群体、强调天下为公。
