Researchers have been studying green tea’s effect on everything from cholesterol(胆固醇) to the risk of certain cancers, with mixed results so far.‎ They found those who drank the most green tea were the least likely to develop “functional disability”, or problems with daily activities or basic needs, such as dressing or bathing.‎ Specifically, almost 13 per cent of adults who drank less than a cup of green tea per day became functionally disabled, compared with just over 7 per cent of people who drank at least five cups a day.‎ The study did not prove that green tea alone kept people agile as they grew older. Green-tea lovers generally had healthier diets, including more fish, vegetables and fruit, as well as more education, lower smoking rates, fewer heart attacks and strokes, and greater mental sharpness. They also tended to be more socially active and have more friends and families to rely on. But even with those factors accounted for, green tea itself was tied to a lower disability risk, the researchers said.‎ People who drank at least five cups a day were one-third less likely to develop disabilities than those who had less than a cup per day. Those people who averaged three or four cups a day had a 25 per cent lower risk.‎ Although it’s not clear how green tea might offer a buffer(缓冲) against disability, Tomata’s team did note that one recent study found green tea extracts(‎ 提取物) seem to increase leg muscle strength in older women.‎ While green tea and its extracts are considered safe in small amounts, they do contain caffeine and small amounts of vitamin K, which means it could affect drugs that prevent blood clotting(凝固).‎ ‎(　　)21. What does the underlined word “peer” mean in the first paragraph?‎ A. Father. ‎ B. Brother. ‎ C. A person of the same age. ‎ D. A person living in the same neighborhood.‎ ‎(　　)22. What can be learned from the passage?‎ A. Antioxidant chemicals can lead to disease.‎ B. Those who often drank green tea can’t develop “functional disability”.‎ C. “Functional disability” is related to problems with daily activities or basic needs.‎ D. People who drank at least five cups a day are not likely to become functionally disabled.‎ ‎(　　)23. What does the fifth paragraph mainly tell us?‎ A. How the study was proved.‎ B. Why green-tea lovers can keep agile.‎ C. What healthier diets include.‎ D. How to lower disability risk.‎ ‎(　　)24. What have the researchers discovered?‎ A. Those who drank green tea can’t develop “functional disability”.‎ B. Green tea alone kept people agile as they grew older.‎ C. How green tea might offer a buffer against disability.‎ D. Green tea extracts seem to increase leg muscle strength in older women.‎ ‎(　　)25. From the passage we can infer that 　　　　. ‎ A. vitamin K is contained in caffeine B. vitamin K is good for our blood C. vitamin K is bad for our health D. vitamin K is influencing on some drugs B We’re so well educated—but we’re useless students who have lost the ability to do anything practical. The only thing we’ve mastered is consumption.‎ Large numbers of students have entered higher education in the past 10 years, but despite being the most educated generation in history, it seems that we’ve grown increasingly ignorant when it comes to basic life skills.‎ Looking back on my first couple of weeks of living in student halls, I consider myself lucky to still be alive. Unfamiliar to freshers, there are many hidden dangers in the dirty corners of student accommodation.‎ I have survived a couple of serious boiling egg incidents and lots of cases of food poisoning, probably from dirty kitchen counters. Although some of my clothes have fallen victim to ironing experimentation, I think I have now finally acquired all the domestic(居家的) skills I missed out in my modern education.‎ In 2006 and 2010, the charming educationist Sir Ken Robinson gave two very amusing talks in which he discussed the importance of creativity in education. Robinson’s main viewpoint is that our current education system dislocates people from their natural talents. I would like to go a step further and propose that besides ‎ our talents, the system takes away what used to be passed from generation to generation—a working knowledge of basic life skills.‎ Today’s graduates may have earned themselves honor in history, law or economies, but when it comes to simple things like putting up a shelf to hold all their academic books, or fixing a hole in their on-trend clothes, they have to call for help from a professional handyman or tailor.‎ Since the invention of the Internet, it has never been easier for people to access information, but our highly specialized education has made us more one-sided than ever.‎ I suggest that we start with the immediate reintroduction of some of the most vital aspects of “domestic science” education, before the current lack leads to serious accidents in student halls.‎ ‎(　　)26. People call us useless students for the reason that 　　　　. ‎ A. what we’ve learned is beyond consumption ‎ B. we are educated generation C. we’ve entered higher education ‎ D. our living skills are so poor ‎(　　)27. Which is NOT the incidents the writer had during the first few weeks in student halls?‎ A. He was seriously burnt by boiled eggs.‎ B. He was accidentally poisoned by food.‎ C. He damaged his clothes while ironing.‎ D. He was severely beaten by freshers.‎ ‎(　　)28. According to Robinson’s opinion, our current education 　　　　. ‎ A. focuses on the importance of creativity B. dislocates people from their natural talents C. has equipped students with basic life skills D. has followed the tradition properly ‎(　　)29. Why are the graduates poor at basic life skills?‎ A. Because they are not interested in them.‎ B. Because they have little relevant practice.‎ C. Because they are affected by Internet.‎ D. Because they are easy to be one-sided.‎ ‎(　　)30. The main purpose of writing the passage is that　　　　. ‎ A. there is no need to introduce “domestic science”‎ B. it’s time we did something to current education C. more attention should be paid to natural science D. accidents should be prevented in student halls 三、 任务型阅读 请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。‎ 注意:每个空格只填1个单词。‎ Many people live sedentary(久坐的) lives and pay the price with their health, so now many schools are encouraging children and teens to take an interest in activities that they are likely to continue into adulthood. It is a wonderful way to promote ongoing participation in sports. It will help them to stay healthy.‎ The term “life sports” refers to exercises and activities which involve participation over the whole of your life.‎ Habits formed in childhood are often hard to break, so it is important that ‎ parents make an effort to help their children develop good habits right from the start.‎ Encouraging active play in babies helps them to develop strong muscles, improves their ability to make their bodies move in a controlled way, and increases their confidence. Furthermore, life sports provide parents with the opportunity to establish traditions where the two generations can play together and enjoy each other’s company. Children who play golf or another life sport with their parents as youngsters are more likely to continue doing so for years to come. They will possibly introduce their own children to the game at some point, so the three generations can spend their spare hours together.‎ It is important that parents be patient teachers when introducing children to a new sport. If playing together is a fun and relaxing experience, children are far more likely to stick with it than if they feel stressed.‎ In order to help children find the life sport that most appeals to them, they should be encouraged to try many different kinds of sports, hoping that one or two will keep them interested enough to continue. Most children will find one or two sports that they enjoy enough to play for a number of years or even for a lifetime.‎ Often, children and teens express their interest in a new sport or activity only to lose interest a few months (or even weeks) later. For parents it is important to remember that participation in sports is helpful to one’s good health in both the short and the long term, so it may be worth allowing their children to change their interests where possible.‎ Title: (31)　　　　 Sports ‎ Theme It is good for children to take part in activities over the whole of their lives.‎ ‎(32)　　　　 of getting ‎ ‎• (33)　　　　 strong muscles. ‎ children ‎ involved in life sports ‎• Put children in better (34)　　　　 of their bodies. ‎ ‎• Make children more (35)　　　　. ‎ ‎• Offer parents or grandparents a(an) (36)　　　　 to spend time together. ‎ Things for (37)　　　　 to do ‎ ‎• Introduce new sports to their children (38)　　　　. ‎ ‎• (39)　　　　 children to try various sports and find their favorite one. ‎ ‎• Allow children to change their (40)　　　　. ‎ ‎45分钟综合性过关小练习(三)‎ 一、 完形填空 本文是一篇说明文，主要分析了英语学习中发音的一些问题，并针对这些问题给出了具体的建议与指导。英语学习者需要重视发音，并多与以英语为母语的人进行交流，这样才能真正学好英语(发音)。‎ ‎1.
