19.More than four in 10cancers-600,000in the UK alone-could be prevented if people led healthier lives,say experts.The population of the UK is about 63,000,000.
Latest figures from Cancer Research UK show smoking is the biggest avoidable risk factor,followed by unhealthy diets.It advises people to live healthily,limit alcohol intake and do regular exercise.
According to the figures from 2007to 2011,more than 300,000cases of cancer recorded were linked to smoking.A further 145,000were linked to unhealthy diets containing too much processed food.Obesity contributed to 88,000cases and alcohol to 62,200.Sun damage to the skin and physical inactivity were also contributing factors.
Professor Max Parkin,a Cancer Research UK researcher,says:"There's now little doubt that certain lifestyle choices can have a big influence on cancer risk,with research around the world all pointing to the same key risk factors.
"Of course everyone wants to enjoy some extra treats during the Christmas holidays so we don't want to ban beef pies and wine but it's a good time to think about taking up some healthy habits for 2015.
"Leading a healthy lifestyle can't guarantee someone won't get cancer but  we can stack the odds in our favour by taking positive steps."
Public Health England says a healthy lifestyle can play an important role in reducing cancer risk.It says campaigns such as Smokefree,Dry January and Change4Life Sugar Swaps all aim to raise public awareness.It's important that we continue to make progress in noticing cancer earlier and improving treatments,but helping people understand how they can reduce their risk of developing cancer in the first place remains important in dealing with cancer.

28.Which of the following is the third biggest avoidable cancer factor?A
A.Obesity.
B.Alcohol intake.
C.Unhealthy diets.
D.Physical inactivity.
29.According to Professor Max Parkin,A.

C.unhealthy food should be completely banned
D.a(chǎn) healthy lifestyle will protect us from cancer

分析 本文是說明文閱讀,作者通過這篇文章向我們講述了專家們認為,如果我們擁有健康的生活方式,那么超過十分之四的癌癥是可以避免的,因此作者鼓勵我們要擁有健康的生活方式.

解答 28.A.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第三段more than 300,000cases of cancer recorded were linked to smoking.A further 145,000were linked to unhealthy diets containing too much processed food.Obesity contributed to 88,000cases and alcohol to 62,200.可知可避免的致癌因素中排名第一的是吸煙,第二是不健康的飲食,第三是肥胖,第四是喝酒.故選A.
29.A.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第五段Of course everyone wants to enjoy some extra treats during the Christmas holidays so we don't want to ban beef pies and wine but it's a good time to think about taking up some healthy habits for 2015.可知Max Parkin教授雖然極力倡導健康的生活方式,但他認為節(jié)假日期間少量喝酒還是可以的.故選A.
30.D.句意理解題.根據(jù)第四段中的There's now little doubt that certain lifestyle choices can have a big influence on cancer risk可知生活方式的選擇對得癌癥的幾率有很大的影響.因此健康的生活方式雖然不能確保我們不得癌癥,但可以"降低我們得癌癥的幾率".故選D.
31.B.主旨大意題.本文前三段通過數(shù)據(jù)等說明可避免的致癌因素的前幾名都跟生活方式有關,第四、五、六段引用Max Parkin教授的話進一步證明了生活方式與癌癥之間的關系,最后一段通過英國公共衛(wèi)生局的官方發(fā)言再一次說明了健康的生活方式可以降低得癌癥的幾率,因此主要說明了癌癥與我們的生活方式有很大的聯(lián)系.故選B.

點評 考查學生的細節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力.做細節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進行比較,再做出正確選擇.在做推理判斷題時不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實,要根據(jù)文章事實進行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.

9.The insanely popular song from South Korean recording artist PSY has just become the most watched video on YouTube ever,gaining more than 808 million views on the popular media site.
The record was previously held by another pop heavyweight,Justin Bieber,whose song"Baby"had a little more than 804 million views at press time.PSY made the announcement early today.
Since its release,the song has outshone such other popular videos as Jennifer Lopez's"On the Floor."and Eminem's"Love the Way You Lie".
And in September,"Gangnam Style"also became the most liked video on YouTube,now with nearly 5.4 million thumbs up.

Despite its massive popularity,the video shows no signs of slowing down,and it even has a shot at becoming the first video to get more than one billion views.
If it maintains its current rate of around six million new views per day,"Gangnam Style"would be in line to break that record by the end of the year.
It has found its way to the tops of music charts in more than 30 countries,including the United Kingdom,Germany,F(xiàn)rance,Spain and Canada,while providing material for thousands of parody videos.
It became a staple in the 2012 presidential elections with the now ramous"Mitt Romney Style"video and was even used by the North Korean government in propaganda(宣傳)films promoting their supreme leader.Meanwhile,such influential figures as President Obama,UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt have all made mention of the hit song.

14.In a time when a dangerous number of people are overweight,many people seem to have forgotten the mostimportant way to keep healthy and slim---exercise.And as a new study carried out on mice in the lab has shown,exercise done early in life can reward you in your adult years.
A team of researchers at the University of California studied the effects of early exercise on adult physical activity,body massand eating.They found that early-age exercise in mice has positive effects on adult levels of voluntary exercise in addition to reducing body mass.
"These results may have an effect on the importance of regular physical education in elementary and middle schools,"said Theodore Garland,a professor of biology,who led the research project."If kids exercise regularly through their school years,then they may be more likely to exercise as adults,which could have far-reaching positive effects on human health and well-being."
Although the positive effects of early-life exercise lasted for only one week,it is important to note that one week in the life of a mouse is the same as about nine months for humans."Our results suggest that any positive effects of early-life exercise on adult exercise will need to be kept up if they are to be long-lasting."
His team of researchers found,too,that all mice that had access to early exercise were lighter in weight than non-exercised mice.
Garland explained that,in general,exercise will stimulate appetite sooner or later.However,it is possible that certain types of exercise,done for certain periods of time or at certain light levels,might not stimulate appetite much,if at all,at least in some individuals.
"If we could understand what sorts of exercise these might be,then we might be able to tailor exercise recommendations i a way that would bring the benefits of exercise without increase in appetite,leading to a better chance of weight loss,"he said.

28.How long do the positiveeffects of early-life exercise last for a mouse?B
A.One day       B.One week     C.One month      D.Nine months
29 Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?A
A.More study is needed to better understand the effects of different types of exercise.
B.Early-life exercise has life-long positive effects on people
C.Kids should be encouraged to do exercise as early as possible to ensure physical health.
D.The new study on mice mainly focused on how exercise affects appetite.
30.The underlined word"stimulate"in the last but one paragraph is closest in meaning toB.
A.decline         B.improve      C.vary            D.harm
31.What is the article mainly about?D
A.New ways to fight against being overweight.
B.The positive effects of mice
C.The possible risks of doing exercise
D.The positive effects of early-life exercse.

4.All people need to sleep.Sleep is a restorative (恢復體力的) process that promotes proper body functioning and can improve the quality of your life.Not only is the quantity of sleep important,but also the quality of sleep.
Your bedroom should be shaped to your taste and to allow you to sleep in a peaceful environment.One of the biggest mistakes people make in their sleep is to use their bedroom for activities other than sleep.If your bedroom also functions as a command station for your life and work,the likelihood of your sleeping being poor is rather high.Bedrooms should be designed,decorated and used for sleep mainly.TVs,computers and other things should not be in your bedroom at all if possible.
Establishing regular sleeping and waking times can help improve the quality of your sleep especially for those suffering from sleeplessness.Avoid hot food,caffeine,sugar and alcohol at least 4to 6hours before your sleep time.Develop a regular exercise program.Proper exercise and nutrition will help improve sleeping patterns.However,avoid exercising 2hours before sleeping,since this may stimulate your body and make sleeping more difficult.
Establish a pre-bedtime rule that will help focus you on sleep.You can try meditation(沉思),reading or deep breathing and relaxation.Your bedtime rule should be yours.Do not worry about it fitting into a specific category.Do what is the best for you.
Things such as room temperature,noise and light levels and even your bed mattress can have a lot of effect on the quality of sleep that you experience.Block out distracting noises and lights.You are in your bedroom to sleep and not be distracted by environmental interferences(干擾).

28.It can be inferred from the passage thatC.
