A

Your body, which had close relations with the food you eat, is the most important thing you own, so it needs proper treatment and proper nourishment. The old saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" is not as silly as some people think.

The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain vitamin C. Many people take extra vitamins in pill form, believing that these will make them healthy. But a good diet is made up of nourishing(营养的) food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesn't need or use extra vitamins, so why waste money on them?

In the modern western world, many people are too busy to bother about eating properly. They throw anything into their stomachs, eating hurriedly and carelessly. The list of illnesses caused or made worse by bad eating habits is frightening.

46. “Your body has close relations with the food you eat” really means that______.

A. all kinds of food you eat can be made into your body

B. your body is made up of the food you eat

C. what you eat has great effect on your health

48. In the second paragraph, the writer tries to let us know________.

A. our bodies need food, or we can't live

49. From the passage we can draw a conclusion that if we want to keep healthy, we should ____.

C. take as many vitamin pills as possible D. eat slowly and carefully

Teenagers lead an exciting life in high school, making friends and dreaming about the future. However, as all young people know, teenagers have plenty of' worries too.

Do you know what British teenagers worry about most? A survey by the UK's Department of' Health shows that the top worries are losing weight and fitting in (适应). Over 100，000 teenagers took part in the research.

Losing weight is a big concern among teenagers. This may be an effect of famous people with perfect bodies around them.

Adolescence is a physically and emotionally difficult time. Teenagers want to feel good about their bodies.

It's also important for them to be accepted. Many teenagers were picked on (作弄) in high school. "Who should I eat lunch with?” "Who should l hang out with?" "Will I be accepted?" These questions are troubling many UK teenagers, according to the survey.

It's interesting to see that family background has an effect on teenagers’ worries. Teenagers from low-income families worried more about losing weight and bullying (欺凌弱小). Teenagers from higher income families were more likely to worry about fitting in and peer pressure (同辈压力).

50. According to the survey, British teenagers are most worried about ______.

A. fitting in and making money B. finding jobs and making friends

C. losing weight and being accepted D. making money and losing weight

I am an e-mail user. When I first started to use the e-mail system I used to read all my e-mail. I didn't have much mail. I gave my friends my e-mail address. Soon I had more mail than I wanted. Some of the mail was junk mail. I was worried. I didn't want my mail to control me.

I've tried some methods to help me get control of my mail. First, I check my mail at the same time every day. Also I try to allow myself only 15-20 minutes every day to process my e-mail. This doesn't always work, but I try. Sometimes I save the messages. Sometimes I just read them, maybe answer a few, and then delete(删除) them.

Sometimes I'm not at all interested in a message, so I don't even open it. I delete it right away. This is very much the way I go through the mail that the postal service delivers to my home.

These methods are very simple. I have some friends who are very clever with computers. From time to time, they teach me new tricks for managing my e-mail. I'm still amazed at what e-mail can do for me! I'm still worried, however, about having too much to read.

54. The writer used to read all his e-mail because_______.

A. he didn't have much mail B. he didn't know how to read mail

C. he had nothing else to do D. he was forced to do that

55. Which of the following does NOT belong to the ways of the writer's dealing with his mail?

A. Saving the messages. B. Deleting some.

C. Just reading some. D. Passing some on to friends.

56. The underlined word "they" in the last paragraph refers to_____.

A. messages B. friends C. computers D. methods

57. What's the purpose of the writer to write this passage?

A. To share happiness in using mail with us.

B. To share some worries in using mail with us.

C. To share some methods of using computer with us.

D. To persuade us out of using mail.

In the past, when people had problems, they went to their families or friends to get advice. Today it is possible to get advice from radio shows, TV programs and telephone hot lines, too. A hot line is a telephone line that offers a direct way of getting in touch with advisers. Most hot lines are completely anonymous -- callers do not have to say their names or telephone numbers. Most hot lines are usually free, too. Callers do not have to pay for the advice or the phone calls--even if the calls are long distance. At some hot lines, the advisers are volunteers. Other hot lines pay their advisers for their work. Usually the advisers are full-job people with years of education and experience, but sometimes, the advisers have only taken a short class before starting to work on the hot line. All the advisers listen to people and help them solve their problems.

63. Who did people get advice from in the past when they had problems? (回答字数不超过8个)
