• 2．My First Marathon A month before my first marathon，one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks，leaving me only two weeks to train.Yet，I was determined to go ahead.
     I remember back to my 7th year in school.In my first P.E.jye.ai，the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball.I didn't do either well.He later informed me that I was "not athletic".
     The idea that I was "not athletic" stuck with me for years.When I started running in my 30s，I realized running was a battle against myself，not about competition or whether or not I was athletic.It was all about the battle against my own body and mind.A test of wills!
     The night before my marathon，I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line.I woke up sweating and nervous，but ready to prove something to myself.
     Shortly after crossing the start line，my shoe laces（鞋带）became untied.So I stopped to readjust.Not the start I wanted!
     At mile 3，I passed a sign： "GO FOR IT，RUNNERS!"
     By mile 17，I became out of breath and the once-injured ankle hurt badly.Despite the pain，I stayed in the course walking a bit and then running again.
     By mile 21，I was starving!
     As I approached mile 23，I could see my wife waving a sign.She is my biggest fan.She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m.jye.ai questioned my expenses on running.
     I was one of the final runners to finish.But I finished!And I got a medal.In fact，I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in the first place had.
     Determined to be myself，move forward，free of shame and worldly labels（世俗标签），I can now call myself a "marathon winner".
  
  （1）A month before the marathon，the author

  .
  A．was well trained
  B．felt scared
  C．made up his mind to run
  D．lost hope
  （2）Why did the author mention the P.E.jye.ai in his 7th year？

  
  A．To acknowledge the support of his teacher.
  B．To amuse the readers with a funny story.
  C．To show he was not talented in sports.
  D．To share a precious memory.
  （3）How was the author's first marathon？

  
  A．He made it.
  B．He quit halfway.
  C．He got the first prize.
  D．He walked to the end.
  （4）What does the story mainly tell us？

  
  A．A man owes his success to his family support.
  B．A winner is one with a great effort of will.
  C．Failure is the mother of success.
  D．One is never too old to learn.

• 3．Measles（麻疹），which once killed 450 children each year and disabled even more，was nearly wiped out in the United States 14 years ago by the universal use of the MMR vaccine（疫苗）.But the disease is making a comeback，caused by a growing anti-vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreading quickly.Already this year，115 measles cases have been reported in the USA，compared with 189 for all of last year.
     The numbers might sound small，but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend.When vaccination rates are very high，as they still are in the nation as a whole，everyone is protected.This is called "herd immunity"，which protects the people who get hurt easily，including those who can't be vaccinated for medical reasons，babies too young to get vaccinated and people on whom the vaccine doesn't work.
      But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in.When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride，immunity breaks down and everyone is in even bigger danger.
     That's exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange County，California，where 22 measles cases were reported this month，to Brooklyn，N.Y.，where a 17-year-old caused an outbreak last year.
     The resistance to vaccine has continued for decades，and it is driven by a real but very small risk.Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer.
     Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out（决定不参加） of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten.Seventeen states allow parents to get an exemption（豁免），sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine.
     Now，several states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out.But no one does enough to limit exemptions.
     Parents ought to be able to opt out only for limited medical or religious reasons.But personal opinions？Not good enough.Everyone enjoys the life-saving benefits vaccines provide，but they'll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks.
  
  （1）The first two paragraphs suggest that

  .
  A．a small number of measles cases can start a dangerous trend
  B．the outbreak of measles attracts the public attention
  C．anti-vaccine movement has its medical reasons
  D．information about measles spreads quickly
  （2）Herd immunity works well when

  .
  A．exemptions are allowed
  B．several vaccines are used together
  C．the whole neighborhood is involved in
  D．new regulations are added to the state laws
  （3）What is the main reason for the comeback of measles？

  
  A．The overuse of vaccine.
  B．The lack of medical care.
  C．The features of measles itself.
  D．The vaccine opt-outs of some people.
  （4）What is the purpose of the passage？

  
  A．To introduce the idea of exemption.
  B．To discuss methods to cure measles.
  C．To stress the importance of vaccination.
  D．To appeal for equal rights in medical treatment.

• 4．If you are taking vitamin supplements to reduce your risk of heart disease or cancer，a group of health experts want you to know that those vitamins may actually increase your risk of cancer.
     The US Preventive Services Task Force came to this conclusion after reviewing dozens of studies.
     Nearly half of adults in the US take at least one vitamin or mineral supplement on a regular basis.These pills are advertised as a way to promote general health.In some cases manufacturers promote them as cancer fighters and heart protectors.
     Studies in animals and in laboratory dishes suggest that oxidative（氧化的）stress contributes to diseases like cancer and heart disease.If so，there is a reason to believe that antioxidants—including beta-carotene，vitamins A，C，and E could be useful as preventive medicines.
     But when the Task Force examined the medical evidence on vitamins，it found " nadequate（不充分的） evidence" to support the claims that vitamin and mineral supplements benefit healthy adults.
     "Cardiovascular （心血管的） disease and cancer have a significant health impact in America，and we all want to find ways to prevent these diseases，" Dr.Virginia Moyer，who heads the Task Force，said in a statement.But so far，she added，the medical evidence does not show that taking vitamins is helpful in this regard.
     However，the Task Force did find "adequate evidence" that people with a raised risk of lung cancer actually increase their risk further by taking beta-carotene，a precursor of vitamin A.
     The Task Force recommendations of taking vitamins regularly apply to healthy adults aged 50 and older who don't have "special nutritional needs".The advice does not apply to children，women who are pregnant or may become pregnant people with chronic illnesses，or people who have to take supplements because they can't get all their essential nutrients from their diet.
  
  （1）Studies in animals and in laboratory dishes find out

  .
  A．enough evidence that taking vitamins is helpful in treating lung cancer
  B．cardiovascular disease spreads very fast in America
  C．oxidative stress can lead to heart disease and cancer
  D．people must take vitamins on a regular basis
  （2）What can we conclude from the Task Force's findings？

  
  A．Scientists want to control cardiovascular disease.
  B．In some regard，taking vitamins is not useful.
  C．Manufacturers cannot produce medical-use vitamins.
  D．Vitamins must be useful to prevent cancer and heart disease.
  （3）Who can take vitamins regularly according to the advice of the Task Force？

  
  A．A 60-year-old healthy worker.
  B．A 15-year-old boy with short-sightedness.
  C．A 34-year-old pregnant lady.
  D．A 40-year-old man who never eats vegetables or fruits.
  （4）What's the best title for the text？

  
  A．An Inside Look at Vitamins
  B．Task Force：Ending to Vitamins
  C．Vitamins：To Live or to Kill
  D．Taking Vitamins to Prevent Cancer May Fail

• 5．Color is fundamental in home design - something you'll always have in every room.A grasp of how to manage color in your spaces is one of the first steps to create rooms you'll love to live in.Do you want a room that's full of life？Professional？Or are you just looking for a place to relax after a long day？（1）

  ，color is the key to making a room feel the way you want it to feel.
     Over the years，there have been a number of different techniques to help designers approach this important point.（2）

  ，they can get a little complex.But good news is that there're really only three kinds of decisions you need to make about color in your home：the small ones，the medium ones，and the large ones.
     （3）

  .They're the little spots of color like throw pillows，mirrors and baskets that most of us use to add visual interest to our rooms.Less tiring than painting your walls and less expensive than buying a colorful sofa，small color choices bring with them the significant benefit of being easily changeable.
     Medium color choices are generally furniture pieces such as sofas，dinner tables or bookshelves.（4）

  .They require a bigger commitment than smaller ones，and they have a more powerful effect on the feeling of a space.
     The large color decisions in your rooms concern the walls，ceilings，and floors.Whether you're looking at wallpaper or paint，the time，effort and relative expense put into it are significant.（5）

  .
  
  A.While all of them are useful
  B.Whatever you're looking for
  C.If you're experimenting with a color
  D.Small color choices are the ones we're most familiar with
  E.It's not really a good idea to use too many small color pieces
  F.So it pays to be sure，because you want to get it right the first time
  G.Color choices in this range are a step up from the small ones in two major ways
