21、   Health and Social Care Secretary Jeremy Hunt has announced that the UK will host the first ever Global Ministerial Mental Health Summit(峰会) in London this October.This global summit aims to put mental-health care on an equal footing with the physical kind.

But there is a long way to go. One in four people will experience a mental-health problem at some point in life. In rich countries mental illnesses account for more suffering and premature death than heart disease, strokes(中风) or cancer. Meanwhile the central-African countries have just one mental-health professional per 100,000 people, a fiftieth as many as Europe has. (Less than 1% of foreign aid for health care goes towards mental health.)

As developing countries handle infectious diseases, mental health will consume a greater share of budgets and attention there. By 2020 mental-health conditions may account for 15% of the global burden of disease, but even in rich countries many people with common problems still go without treatment.

It is clear that mental illness is fast becoming one of the global health challenges of the 21st century. Until recently, this hasn’t had the profile it deserves on a global stage. The ministers gathering in London must produce new money and focus—and not just another declaration. The summit is also expected to help countries learn from each other to find the best ways to deal with increased rates of depression and anxiety among young people.

【1】Which of the following best explains “on an equal footing” underlined in paragraph 1?

A.Standing up for. B.Being as important as.

C.Standing in one’s shoes. D.Having an advantage over.

【2】What is the purpose of holding the meeting?

A.To find more foreign aid for health care.

B.To make a declaration on mental illnesses.

C.To solve the physical problems of the youth.

D.To stress the importance of mental health.

【3】Which disease causes more premature death in rich countries?

A.Heart disease. B.Cancer.

C.Mental illness. D.Stroke.

【4】What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

A.Effective measures should be taken on mental health.

B.The problem of mental illness has drawn enough attention.

C.People in developed countries suffer less mental illnesses.

D.Mental-health diseases have taken up about 15% of the global illness cases.

22、   31stOctober —— A team of British explorers has announced they are going to the North Pole to measure the ice cap’s thickness. The exploration will take ground-based readings (仪表的读数) of an ice formation which most scientists agree is shrinking at an alarming rate.

Explorer Pen Hadow’s three-member team will pull a sled-fixed radar device, which measures ice density every eight centimeters, 2,000 kilometers across the Arctic and will produce millions of readings.

They will leave in February, 2008 and will face temperatures of -50℃ on a journey that will take up to 120 days. They have been testing their equipment in Britain and Canada.

Hadow is excited about the prospects (前景), “For the first time we will be able to transmit video images — webcam film of the expedition — as it unfolds so people can track us, and the whole idea is to engage as many people as we can in what we’re doing.”

New fallen snow on top of the ice makes ground-based measurements more accurate than satellite data.

“It has been in the planning stage for a while,” said Hadow. “We spent the last two years developing impulse radar (冲击雷达), which normally is about 100 kilograms and hangs under an aircraft and so on. We’ve managed to get it down to about 4 kilograms. It’s the size of a briefcase and we are dragging it behind the sled as we go.”

The ice cap shrank enough in 2007 so that a pathway through the cap known as the Northwest Passage opened up during the melting of the Arctic summer.

Cambridge University’s Joao Rodrigues explains, “Thickness of the ice cap will determine how much solar radiation will be reflected and the heat exchange between the ocean and the atmosphere and it is thus a vital component (成分) of climate models.”

If warming trends continue, some experts predict that the Arctic Ocean could be ice-free during the summer within a few decades.

【1】What would be the best title for the text?

A.Exploration to the North Pole.

B.Arctic ice cap shrinking.

C.Arctic ice survey announced.

D.Ground-based measurements of ice.

【2】What is special about the exploration?

A.It will be broadcast live on the Internet.

B.Explorers will use a sled-fixed radar device.

C.Explorers will travel in extremely cold conditions.

D.Ground-based measurements are more accurate.

【3】What is the purpose of the exploration?

A.To measure the ice cap’s thickness.

B.To study whether ice will disappear in the Arctic.

C.To make a film about the Arctic exploration.

D.To make people interested in what they are doing.

【4】It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

A.ice in the Arctic will disappear in ten years

B.the exploration will last for half a year

C.Hadow spent two years developing a kind of radar, which is about 100 kilograms

D.if there is snow on ice, satellites can’t measure the ice thickness accurately enough

【5】From the passage, we learn that ________.

A.the explorers will measure ice density every other centimeter

B.people will be able to follow the explorers and see what they are doing

C.people could go through the Northwest Passage in the 2007 Arctic summer

D.the equipment that Hadow’s team use will be tested in the United States

24、The world celebrates Earth Day every year on April 22. But one school in Potomac, Maryland tries to honour Earth Day every day. Very young children are learning about the environment and taking action to show their love for the Earth.

A child’s world is the world of playing. They love being outside in the open air, playing hide-and-seek, sliding and swinging on playground equipment. But children at St. James Children’s School also add to that fun by picking up rubbish in the school yard. Inside, they learn to save water and electricity. They also recycle and reuse the waste. And every spring they get the soil ready to plant flowers and vegetables in the school garden.

The children at St. James range from six weeks to six years old. The environmental study begins at age two. Rebecca Boker teaches the children the importance of taking care of the Earth. Boker says every day at St. James is Earth Day. She mentioned some books, which contain materials that ask children to do something to help the environment and protect the Earth.

At St. James, children observe the growth of plants from seeds to sprouts (新芽) in cups kept in the classroom. Then they watch the plants continue to grow after placing them in the garden.The students also observe the life cycle of insects. After that, they know it is their job to respect the Earth just like they want others to respect their home.

But do these young children really get the message that their teachers try to communicate? Ms. Boker says yes. A few days later, the kids at St. James will go out to the school garden for the yearly clean-up. But for them, Earth Day will continue for the schooldays ahead as well.

A．They learn to save water and electricity at home.

B．They often go out to pick up rubbish in the street.

C．They are not allowed to use playground equipment.

D．They can help prepare the soil to plant flowers and vegetables.

【2】Why does the school make the children observe the growth of plants and insects?

A．To help the children write better reports.

B．To let the children enjoy the growth of life.

C．To enrich the children’s knowledge of agriculture.

D．To teach the children the importance of respecting the Earth.

A．Unconcerned.

B．Positive.

C．Proud.

D．Anxious.

【4】What’s the main idea of the passage?
