We know that sugary sodas aren’t good for our bodies. Now it turns out that they may not be good for our minds, either. A new study of more than 260,000 people has found a link between sweetened soft-drinks and depression, and diet sodas may be making matters worse.

Americans drink far more sodas than people in other countries— as much as 170 liters per person per year. But the impact of this study isn’t limited to the United States. “Sweetened drinks, coffee and tea are commonly consumed worldwide and have important physical consequences. And they may have important mental-health consequences as well,” study author Dr Honglei Chen said in a statement.

The study studied 263,925 people between the ages of 50 and 71. Researchers followed their consumption of drinks like soda, tea coffee, and other soft drinks from 1995 to 1996 and then. 10 years later, asked them if they had been diagnosed with depression since the year 2000. More than 11,3000 of them had.

Participants who drank more than four servings of sodas per day were 30 percent more likely to develop depression than participants who did

not drink sodas at all. People who stuck with fruit punch(鸡尾酒), had a 38 percent higher risk than people who didn’t drink sweetened drinks. And all that extra sugar isn’t the actual problem. Researchers say that the artificial sweetener aspartame may be to blame.

The study found a link but could not surely determine whether sodas and other sweet soft drinks cause depression. Still, the results “are consistent with a small but growing body of evidence suggesting that artificially sweetened beverages may be linked to poor health outcomes.”

But there’s a bright side for those who can’t live without their daily sodas. Adults who drank coffee had a 10 percent lower risk of depression compared to people who didn’t drink any coffee, according to the study. “Our research suggests that cutting out or down on sweetened diet drinks or replacing them with unsweetened coffee may naturally help lower your depression risk,” said Chen.

41. What has the new study of more than 260,000 people found?

A. Sugary sodas aren’t good for the physical health of old people.

B. Americans have a special tooth for sweet foods.

C. Sweetened soft-drinks may increase the risk of depression.

D. Sweetened soft-drinks have important physical consequences.

42. What do we know about the process of the study?

A. About twenty-six thousand people participated in it.

B. The oldest participants were below 80 when the study was over.

C. Most of the participants had depression when the study was over.

D. The study lasted more than ten years from the beginning to the end.

43. We infer that the underlined word “aspartame” in Paragraph 4 refers to something that _____.

A. can reduce the harm of sweetened drinks

B. is used to reduce the risk of depression

C. is mainly used to make fruit punch

D. is used to make something .sweet

44. It is implied in the passage that ______.

A. more research is needed to confirm the new findings

B. the new findings aren’t consistent with any previous findings

C. cutting one’s sodas intake will surely reduce one’s depression

D. the new findings won’t have an impact on people’s drinking habits

45. What should you drink in order to reduce the risk of depression?

A. Sodas.

B: Unsweetened coffee.

C. Sugary coffee.

D. Fruit punch.

Growing up, I remember my father as a silent, serious man not the sort of person around whom one could laugh. As a teenager arriving in America, knowing nothing, I wanted a father who could explain the human journey. In college, when friends called home for advice, 1 would sink into deep depression for what I did not have.

Today. at twenty-seven, I have come to rediscover them in ways that my teenage mind would not allow — as adults and as friends with their own faults and weaknesses.

One night after my move back home, I overheard my father on the telephone. There was some trouble. Later, Dad shared the problem with me. Apparently my legal training had earned me some privileges in his eyes. I talked through the problem with Dad. analyzing the purposes of the people involved and offering several negotiation strategies. He listened

patiently before finally admitting, “I can’t think like that. I am a simple man.”

Dad is a brilliant scientist who can deconstruct (解构) the building blocks of nature. Yet human nature is a mystery to him. That night I realized that he was simply not skilled at dealing with people, much less the trouble of a conflicted teenager. It’s not in his nature to understand human desires.

And so, there it was — it was no one’s fault that my father held no interest in human lives while 1 placed great importance in them. We are at times born more sensitive, wide-eyed, and dreamy than our parents and become more curious and idealistic than them. Dad perhaps never expected me for a child. And I, who knew Dad as an intelligent man, had never understood that his intelligence did not cover all of my feelings.

It has saved me years of questioning and confusion. I now see my parents as people who have other relationships than just Father and Mother. I now overlook their many faults and weaknesses, which once annoyed me.

I now know my parents as friends: people who ask me for advice; people who need my support and understanding. And I’ve come to see my past clearly.

46. What was the author’s impression of her father when she was a teenager?

A. Friendly but irresponsible.

B. Intelligent but severe.

C. Cold and aggressive.

D. Caring and communicative.

47. Why did the author feel depressed when her friends called home?

A. She did not have a phone to a1l home.

B. Her father did not care about her human journey.

C. Her father was too busy to answer her phone.

D. Her father couldn’t give her appropriate advice.

48. After the author overheard her father on the telephone.

A. he blamed her for impoliteness

B. he rediscovered human nature

C. he consulted with her about his problem

D. he changed his attitude towards the author

49. The author realized that ______.

A. her father had too many faults and weaknesses

B. her father was not as intelligent as she had thought

C. her father was not good at interpersonal relationships

D. her father placed too much importance in social activities

50. Which of the following is the best title of this passage?

A. My Parents as Friends

B. My Parents as Advisors

C. My Father — a Serious Man

D. My Father — an Intelligent Scientist

WAS the London Olympics a success? Many people hold different opinions. However one thing is certain, London could win a gold medal for hosting the “greenest” Games ever, BBC News reported.

Previous Olympic hosts have been criticized for the environmental damage they have caused through construction, waste. and transport. But

things had to be different in London because seven years ago it bid for the Olympics through the concept of “a One Planet Olympics”.

What is most impressive is that London used the construction of the Olympic Park as an opportunity to clean up polluted areas — 2 million tons of contaminated (被污染的) soil were removed and 200 old factory buildings, were torn down, according to sustainablebusiness.com. But that’s not all —. 99 percent of the debris (废瓦砾) were reused to build the Olympic Park. For example, part of the Olympic Stadium’s roof is made from 2,500 tons of steel tubes recycled from old gas pipelines.

As well as using recycled materials, all venues were built with green building techniques. The Olympic Stadium is the lightest one ever built, which minimized the amount of steel and concrete needed. Also, the handball field has lighting pipes on the roof that reduce electricity use by 40 percent, according to sustainablebusiness.com.

The effort that London made to deal with waste also deserves praise. Water used for drinking and watering plants was from collected rainwater or recycled wastewater. In this way. about 30-40 percent less water was used in total. Waste food packages were either recycled or processed and turned into renewable energy.

As one of the best connected places in Europe, London tried to solve traffic jams by encouraging the use of public transport. For example, it had trains deliver half of the building materials, instead of cars, which greatly reduced carbon emissions.

The clean anti-doping (反兴奋剂) result also added to the greenness of the Games. The International Olympics Committee (IOC) said that the devices used this time were the most accurate and advanced. Only one athlete tested positive for a banned drug on the day of competing, which is why the IOC President, Jacques Rogge, has praised anti-doping efforts at the London Games.

51. To make the Olympic Park green, London _______.

A. recycled 2 million tons of contaminated soil

B. removed 99 percent of the debris from the city

C. built the Olympic Stadium mostly with recycled materials

D. applied green building techniques to the construction work

52. The underlined word “minimized” in the fourth paragraph probably

means

A. increased as much as possible

B. reduced as much as possible

C. made good use of

D. took little notice

53. What can we conclude from the article?

A. The London Olympics cost less than the other Olympics ever held.

B. London has possessed the most advanced techniques to deal with waste.

C. Public transport is made good use of in London durIng the Olympic games.

D. The anti-doping result in the London Olympics turned out to be dissatisfactory.

54. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text?

55.What is the best title of the passage?

A. How to deal with the anti-doping

B. How to use recycled materials

C. London’s green games

D. London’s public transport

第一节：阅读表达，阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。

Everyone has talent, but not everyone succeeds with their talent. More factors than mere talent attribute to a greater personal success. Having talent or being talented is never enough to find success in life.

Dr. John Maxwell has written a new book to explain that there is more to success than just being talented. He says that the only way to find success in life is to apply good choices to talent and rise above the crowd. He believes that talented people need more than their gifts or abilities to succeed in life. There must be something more than just talent to become successful. A talent-plus person, a person who rises above the

understanding of mere talent, is much more likely to find success than those with just talent alone.

People who have talent must be willing to make the right choices to maximize their talent. Wrong choices will minimize their talent,

preventing them from rising to higher levels in life. Maximizing talent requires people to make good choices, but understanding that there are specific things in life requires no talent at all. Maxwell lists many different choices that people make to become a talent-plus persons including Belief lifts talent, Relationships influence talent,

Responsibility strengthens talent, Teamwork multiplies talent, etc.

Following the simple principles found in the book can not only help people raise the level of their talent but also raise their level of living. When people combine the principles with their talents they can become a talent-plus person. The choice becomes one of willingness and personal change. Talent-plus people have the ability to change their life and the world.

56. What’s the possible name of Maxwell’s new book?

(no more than 8 words)
