11．When my son，Justin，was four，he found a caterpillar （毛蟲(chóng)） and put it in a jar．Each day he fed it with fresh grass and leaves．In a few weeks we discovered it   （36）B  in a cocoon （繭）．
Justin was excited．He knew a moth （蛾） or butterfly was about to be （3）A，but he didn't know what kind．He was  （38）D to know what gift nature was about to give him．
"Dad!"shouted the boy while running to me one day．"Something's  （39）B．Come see!"
He led me to his room．The cocoon had become half transparent and we could  （40）A    the wings of the unborn．Soon，a moth broke free from the cocoon，and laid eggs completing the life （41）C   of the little caterpillar．
The next day，I convinced Justin it was time to set the moth free．He took it（42）D，opened the jar，and the little moth flew out．It（43）C   the yard twice，came back，and landed on Justin's arm．He picked it up，tossed it in the air，and the moth repeated its （44）A  pattern．He tried over and over，but each time it would （45）D to his arm．
Justin （46）B．He put his little pet back to the jar．The next day he attempted to set it free again，and after a few repetitions of the same behavior，the moth（47）C  flew off into the grass．
Like a  （48）A，I believe the moth was afraid to leave what it was comfortable with．It wanted to stay with something （49）D，scared to move on and experience something unknown．
I was once that little moth．My cocoon was my mother's （50）A，in which I was comfortable．Like the moth，I didn't want to fly too far away from it．I was  （51）C  when my first job required me to move to a new city．What would I find there？I liked （52）B  I was．
Humans are creatures of （53）C．We resist change．However，if I hadn't moved，I would not have experienced many （54）B  and wonderful things or met many of my friends．So each move gave me the （55）D   to learn and experience，but best of all，I met friends．

Young children may face serious health risks from popular energy drinks，such as Monster，Red Bull and Rock Star，（41）G causing heart problems and other life-threatening conditions，according to the findings of new researches．
During a presentation at the annual Cardiac Scientific Sessions 2014 meeting of the American Heart Association （AHA），researchers warned about the risk of allowing young children（42）Kto the energy drinks，which contain high amounts of caffeine（咖啡因） and other stimulants．
Researches  （43）Ehat the energy drinks are not intended for young children and are not safe for them to consume．Steven Lipshultz，M．D．，lead author of the study，is calling for a warning on all energy drink cans and bottles，warning parents of the risk of allowing children to drink them．
Researchers say it is difficult to know exactly how much caffeine is contained in each can or bottle of energy drinks，since they are often （44）A as dietary supplements （補(bǔ)充物），which allow the manufacturers to avoid FDA regulations．
Energy drink manufacturers have compared the amount of caffeine in their products to that in hot drinks sold in coffee houses，but their products are often packaged in very large sizes and they are not sold in （45）Fnvironments like coffee houses，which typically would not serve young children．Energy drinks are widely available in （46）I stores next to traditional soft drinks，typically packaged in very similar cans and using similar marketing techniques．
Some energy drinks in many of the popular lines can contain up to 400mg of caffeine per can．In comparison，a cup of coffee typically has around 100mg of caffeine．Caffeine poisoning can occur in adults at levels higher than 400mg a day； however，children under 12can （47）B  caffeine poisoning at only 2.5mg per 2.2pounds of body weight．
A study published in September （48）Jup the new findings，revealing energy drinks may cause serious heart problems．French researchers revealed the popular energy drinks may be linked to （49）C risk of irregular heartbeats and even sudden death．
The FDA is  （50）H investigating health concerns surrounding the drinks after numerous negative event reports have been made in recent years connecting energy drinks to severe injuries and deaths．

6．The high-protein，low-carbohydrate（碳水化合物） diets many people turn to for weight loss might have potentially harmful long-term effects on the  colon，a small study indicates．
In the study，UK researchers found that a protein-heavy，low-carb diet created certain changes in the colon that could contribute to colon cancer risk．The study itself does not show whether high-protein diets really raise the risk of any colon diseases，but the findings raise that possibility．
Diets relatively high in protein and lower in carbs have been shown to help heavy people lose weight．"People should not be discouraged from losing weight，"Dr Flint said．However，he added，they should make sure that any weight loss plan includes adequate amounts of fiber and a high protein intake over months to years might have ill effects on the colon．
The findings are based on 17overweight men who followed three short-term diets：a one-week menu plan to keep their weight； a four-week high-protein diet with reasonable amounts of carbohydrates； and a four-week high-protein diet low in carbs．
On average，the study found when the men were on the high-protein diets，they had higher levels of substances known as N-nitroso compounds（亞硝基化合物） and other metabolites（代謝物） that have been linked to cancer．And when they were on the high-protein，low-carb diet，they had lowered amounts of fiber-originated compounds thought to be protective against cancer．
Exactly what those changes might mean for a person's health is not clear，But Flint said that the findings suggest that people should be cautious about consuming too much protein and too little fiber over a long period．In general，experts recommend that adults get about 28grams of fiber per day-though it's not known whether that's enough for someone on a high-protein weight-loss diet．

71．What is the best title of the text？B
A．Plan a Healthy Diet
B．Take Care of Your Colon
C．How to Lose Weight
D．How to Protect against Cancer
72．The underlined word"colon"in Paragraph 1probably refers to"A"．
A．a(chǎn)n organ     B．intelligence   C．a(chǎn) habit    D．behaviour

A．a(chǎn)ffect your mood     B．lower cancer risks
C．harm your body       D．keep your figure
74．It can be inferred from the text thatD．
A．we shouldn't take the study seriously
B．weight problems are hard to solve
C．it is better to follow a low-carb diet
D．people should be cautious to lose weight
75．The author is intended toB．
A．a(chǎn)dvise how to lose weight
B．introduce a scientific finding
C．describe a research process
D．talk about healthy diets．

16．How do you know if your home is an easy aim for thefts（偷竊）？Around the holidays，many families don't consider taking proper measures to prevent their homes from suffering holiday thefts．With just a few simple steps，you can better make sure of the safety of your home during all of the holiday celebrations．Here are a few tips for making it difficult to tell you are away from home．
●Either have a trusted neighbor pick up your mail and newspapers，or tell your mailperson to hold your mail until you return．Nothing says"Hey，we are not home!"like when your postbox is filled with all kinds of mails and you have many different newspapers in your driveway．
●Set several different lights in your house on random timers （隨機(jī)定時(shí)器）．Don't leave your outdoor lights on all the time．Instead，put your outside lights on timers to be on during the nights．If an outdoor light remains on for days at a time，it means that nobody is home to turn it off．
●If you have pets that you are not taking with you on vacation，leave them with a friend，rather than having someone come into your house every day to take care of them．When thefts see a neighbor or friend entering your house every day，they will know you are not home．
●Close all your curtains when you leave town．This is effective to deter possible thefts，as no one can see what is in your house．If they don't know what there is to take，then the risk is even greater for them to break in．
●This article just has suggested a few tips to help you keep your house safe while you are on holiday．Nothing can truly protect your home unless you have it monitored by a professional home security system．

56．What is the main idea of the passage？A
A．to tell us how to prevent the thefts around the holidays
B．to let the outdoor lights on all the time
C．to tell us many families suffering from the thefts while they are on holiday
D．to tell you to have your neighbor go to your house to take care of your pet．
57．If you are on holiday in other places，the lights in your house shouldA．
A．be lit in an irregular way              B．be kept on all the night
C．be replaced by random timers            D be turned on only once one day
58．To make your home is well protected，what does the writer advise you to do？D
A．Have all the curtains closed              B．Stop your mail service at once
C．Turn to your close neighbors or friends   D．Equip your home with security system
59．Most of the tips mentioned in the text seem toC．
A．be very popular with families           
B．have no effect on preventing thefts
C．give a false impression on thefts．
D．be a little hard to be brought into effect．
60．The underlined word"deter"probably means"????B"．

3．One evening I went out and left my 17-year-old son in charge of his 8-year-old brother and 4-year-old sister．On this occasion，the work was made less troublesome by the presence of his girl friend．I left with complete confidence that the older children would do a wonderful job of babysitting the younger children．Later，I discovered that complete confidence was the last thing I should have left home with．
I had decided to return home earlier than planned so that my son and his girlfriend could go out．I called home with this happy news．But instead of hearing his cheerful，grateful voice on the other end of the line，all I heard was the sound of a telephone ringing．
It was，I should point out，after 10 p．m．，when the two younger children should have been in bed．a(chǎn)nd when the two older children should have been answering the phone．"I'll give him a lesson，"I said．I decided they must be outside．Why they might be outside at 10：30 on a winter night I had no idea，but it was the only explanation I could come up with．
Finally，in desperation，I called his girlfriend's house．After what seemed like countless rings，his girlfriend answered．"Yes，"she said brightly，"He's right here．"
He came on the phone．I was not my usual calm，rational（理智的）self．After all，one of the rules of survival for modern parents is that you can't trust modern teenagers．"Where are the children？"I said．He said they were with him．They had done nothing wrong．My son had taken the younger children over to his girlfriend's house just for ice cream and cake．This was too good to be believed．Well，it turns out that I shouldn't have believed it．It was only part of the truth．
The following Saturday evening we were at my parents home，celebrating my birthday．My oldest son gave me the children's gifts．Mounted and framed were a series of lovely color photographs of my children，dressed in their best clothes，and wearing their most wonderful expressions．They are pictures to treasure a lifetime，all taken by the father of my son's girlfriend．
