The law, approved last March in Israel, requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index (BMI) of at least 18.5 for three months before a fashion show. That means a woman who is 68 inches tall can weigh no less than 119 pounds.‎ ‎“This law is another step in the war against eating disorders,” said physician Adatto. “Underweight models,” he explained, “can no longer serve as role models for innocent young people who copy their false image of being skinny.”‎ But some critics in this country say it is misguided, focusing on weight instead of health. They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry. “I think it’s an approach that isn’t going to work.” said eating disorder expert Susan Ice, who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environment for models.‎ But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an ambitious model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized. He said. “I realized that only legislation(立法) can change the situation. There was no time to waste; so many girls were dieting to death.”‎ However, the efforts to regulate models’ weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in significant changes in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring weight and health.‎ Still, folks including Ice say there’s no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with. “Certainly I don't believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders, but it makes it harder,” she says. “It’s a difficult recovery environment, worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal.”‎ ‎25. One benefit the new Israeli law may bring is ______.‎ A.to change the working conditions of models B.to lower the chance of skinny models’ death ‎ C.to provide guidance for women worshiping thinness D.to prevent models from suffering from eating disorders ‎26.In the opinion of the critics, the law won’t succeed because _______.‎ A. it misleads young women to form a bad eating habit.‎ B. the fashion industry is much too influential.‎ C. it doesn’t create a healthy working environment for models.‎ D. it doesn’t provide a proper approach that can work well.‎ ‎27. What caused Adatto to think that a law was needed to change the situation?‎ A. Being interviewed by a reporter.‎ B. Establishing his fashion model agent.‎ C. Meeting an ambitious but too skinny model.‎ D. Seeing a model die from eating disorders.‎ ‎28.According to the passage, the new Israeli law banning skinny models is _____ .‎ A. practical B.controversial C. acceptable D.reasonable ‎ C Youth football team members rescued more than two weeks after sudden flooding trapped them in a cave in Thailand are now being well looked after at a hospital in the northern city of Chiang Rai. In addition to treating the boys for potential body fluid loss, inadequate nutrition and lack of oxygen, their doctors also plan to closely monitor them for symptoms of diseases that may have been infected by animals living in the cave.‎ ‎“The next step is to make sure those kids and their families are safe, because living in a cave provides a different environment, which might contain animals that could transmit…disease,” said the local hospital. The boys and their family members have been told to watch for symptoms such as headache, nausea(反胃), muscle pain or difficulty breathing, the reports added.‎ Yet based on the location where the boys were trapped—more than four kilometers from the cave complex’s main entrance, past some fully submerged passages—and the fact they have been swimming out wearing full scuba face masks, it seems unlikely that they were living with bats in the cave or breathed in bat-associated bacteria during their rescue, several infectious disease experts said. “It’s hard to imagine bats got that deep into the cave because of all those narrow passageways, but it is possible,” says Ian Lipkin, an animal expert and professor at the Mailman School of Public Health at Columbia University. “It’s unlikely that there would be many animals in there,” notes Jonathan Epstein, a doctor at EcoHealth Alliance, a nonprofit organization that studies diseases and how to prevent them. Bats typically like to rest in areas they can easily enter and exit, not in places that fully flood, he adds.‎ Bats in Thailand have been linked with a wide range of viruses that are similar to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)—Lipkin says. But it seems more likely the boys would have been exposed to infection-causing bacteria when they swam through the dirty water with cuts and scrapes. “If you are trying to prioritize issues with respect to health care for these kids, number one would be psychological damage and second will be bacterial infections from the cuts and scrapes they may have encountered.” Lipkin says.‎ ‎29.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the potential symptom of the rescued team members?‎ A. Lacking body water B. Unbalanced nutrition C. Adequate oxygen D. Pain in the head and muscles ‎ ‎30.The underlined word “submerged” in paragraph 3 means ________.‎ A. bat-associated B. wild and dangerous C. with animals D. under the water ‎ ‎31.Which is true about the caves and the trapped people?‎ A.Lipkin said the victims might be infected when their body were exposed to bacterial water during the rescue.‎ B.Lipkin argued bats were not able to get deep into the narrow cave where the kids were trapped.‎ C.Jonathan Epstein thought it possible for the team members to be attacked by bats in the fully-flooded cave.‎ D.Lipkin believed the most important issue for the cave-trapped teenagers was infectious bacteria examination.‎ ‎32.What is the text type of the passage?‎ A. An academic essay about bats. B. A medical magazine.‎ C. A newspaper article. D. A Thai website about sports.‎ D We’ve all been there: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded by people who are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, struggling with the uncomfortable silence.‎ What’s the problem? It’s possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence. It’s more likely that none of us start a conversation because it’s awkward and challenging, or we think it’s annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say it’s an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits.‎ Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy, but we can’t forget that deep relationships wouldn’t even exist if it weren’t for casual conversation. Small talk is the grease(润滑剂) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana ‎ University Southeast. "Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk," he explains. "The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them."‎ In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to seek out an interaction with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. "It’s not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband," says Dunn. "But interactions with peripheral(边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also."‎ Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging, a bond with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk. "Small talk is the basis of good manners," he says.‎ ‎33.What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph?‎ A. Addiction to smartphones.‎ B. Inappropriate behaviours in public places.‎ C. Impatience with slow service.‎ D. Absence of communication between strangers.‎ ‎34.What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci?‎ A. Showing good manners. B. Focusing on a topic. ‎ C. Relating to other people. D. Making business deals.‎ ‎35.What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk?‎ A. It improves family relationships. B. It makes people feel good.‎ C. It matters as much as a formal talk. D. It raises people’s confidence.‎ 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分) ‎ 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Claustrophobia Claustrophobia, or fear of enclosed spaces, in one of the most common fears. Claustrophobia can be deep fear or even panic as a result of being in a small space.‎ Claustrophobia can develop after a troubling childhood experience, or from another unpleasant experience later on in life related to small spaces. 36 .This response then becomes programmed in the brain, making an association between being in a tight space and feeling anxious or out-of-control. As a result, the person often develops claustrophobia. ‎ ‎ 37 .Claustrophobia symptoms can include: sweating, accelerated heartbeat, upset stomach, shaking, breathing problem, etc. The claustrophobia sufferer will look for an exit when inside a room, avoid driving on the highway or major roads where there is heavy traffic when inside a car, or stand near a door when at a party. 38 .‎ Claustrophobia can have harmful social and psychological effects, since the patient will often avoid situations in which she thinks she will have an anxiety attack, leading to hiding and sadness. ‎ ‎ 39 .Exposure treatment, a form of mind-behavioral treatment, usually results in a total reduction in anxiety symptoms if conducted properly. Flooding is a type of exposure treatment in which the person is exposed to a situation until the anxiety attack passes. 40 .Medications to help treat claustrophobia include things which help to ease the heart beating to fast often associated with anxiety attacks.‎ A. According to some doctors, claustrophobia is worse than the fear of heights B. The past experience can trace back to the moment of birth C. The good news is that claustrophobia is very treatable D. When a person with claustrophobia finds herself in a restricted space, her body responds in certain ways E. In extreme cases, the very sight of a closed door can lead to feelings of anxiety in a person F. Treatment for claustrophobia can also include medication or a combination of several treatments G.
