To many people, the cause is clear, we eat too much. But scientific evidence (证据)does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of 1910, we find that people were thinner than today. Yet they ate more food. In those days, people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less, and didnt watch TV. Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average(平均地) than thinner people. In fact, some investigations (调查)such as a 1979 study of 3 545 London office workers, reports that fat people eat less than slimmer people. Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts: The more the men ran, the more fat they lost. The more they ran, the more they ate. Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat. 56. What kind of physical problem do many adult Americans have? A. They are too thin. B. They work too hard. C. They are too fat. D. They lose too much body fat. 57. According to the information given in the passage, among 500 Americans, how many have weight problem?

Enough laws have been made to fight against pollution. The cities in Australia have little air or water pollution. The sky is blue and the water is clean. You can clearly see fish in the rivers. Plants grow very well. Last month we visited Perth, the biggest city in Western Australia, and west to a wild flower exhibition. There we saw large numbers of wild flowers on show, most of which we had never seen before. We had a wonderful time. Perth is famous for its beautiful wild flowers. Every year in spring Perth has wild flower exhibition. After visiting Perth, we spent a day in the countryside. We sat down and had a rest near a path at the foot of a hill. It was quiet and we enjoyed ourselves very much. When we heard bells ringing at the top of the hills, we looked up, but what we saw made us pick up all our things and run back as quickly as we could. There were about three hundred sheep coming towards us along the path. Australia is famous for its sheep and kangaroos（袋鼠）.

I opened my eyes and found it was seven forty, so I jumped out of bed and rushed to a nearby bus stop without breakfast. Fortunately the bus started going as soon as I got on it. I was sure I could reach the school before the bell rang. However, the bus suddenly stopped. There was something wrong with it and we had to get off and wait for another one. I felt I couldn’t wait and the school was only fifteen minutes’ walk, so I ran to the school as fast as possible. Just at this moment, it began to rain hard. I reached the classroom with all my clothes wet through. Mr. Smith, our physics teacher, had begun his class. I was always afraid of him. I hesitated（犹豫） for a moment, and then I opened the door. “It’s you again, Jim,” Mr. Smith said angrily. I’ve told you not to be late, but you …”. Then he suddenly stopped when he noticed my wet clothes. He quickly took off his own jacket and asked me to put it on. “I don’t want you to catch a cold,” he said kindly. I went to my seat with Mr. Smith’s jacket on. It was a bit large for me but I felt very warm in it. I found, for the first time, Mr. Smith’s physics class so interesting and I changed my mind, there and then, about being afraid of him. 64．According to this passage, classes in Jim’s school probably began at ______. A．9am B．8am C．7am D．7:30 am 65．Why did Jim hesitate before he opened the door? A．He was afraid of facing Mr. Smith. B．He didn’t like to have the physics class.

A．Jim usually went to school by bike B．it was the first time Jim had been late C．Jim was often late for school D．Jim’s mother also got up late that morning D ★★ I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as Mother sat writing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world. Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she’d said again, “is for Elizabeth.” I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me. She showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”， but she lived “on the surface”. As years passed and I had my own family, I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive(宽恕) me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came. My hope turned to disappointment then little interest and, finally, peace—it seemed that nothing happened. I could not be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not. Now the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside—a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many time
