The Haydens 15-year-old daughter had disappeared six months before. On Christmas Eve she rang them. “Im phoning to wish

22、a happy Christmas,“ she said, “ I love you.“ Ronals and Edwine Hayden were so happy that they started a special telephone service called “Alive and well“. The service helps parents to get in touch with children who have run away from home. Young people can phone “Alive and Well“ and leave a message

23、for their parents. The telephones are answered by answering machines. So no one can speak to the child of make him return home. Parents of runaway children who are under eighteen can ask the police to bring their children home. So children do not want to tell their parents where they are. Through “A

24、live and Well“ they can telephone their parents without worrying about this or giving out their addresses. The Haydens and their helpers write down the tape-recorded telephone messages and connect the addresses given. Many of the 30,000 British teenagers （十来岁的孩子） who have left home are probably in L

30、ent by bus. She always had to pay the full price for her ride. Then she reached the age of sixty and got her senior citizens card, but when she used it for the first time on the bus, it made her feel very old. The bus driver had often seen her travelling on the bus before, and he noticed that she wa

34、 if they do not change their diet,” US researchers said last week. A study of 192 third and fourth graders, generally aged eight and nine found that children who cut the number of hours spent watching television increased nearly two pounds (0.91kg) less over a one-year period than those who did not

35、change their television diet. “The findings are important because they show that weight loss can only be the result of a reduction in television viewing and not any other activity,” said Thomas Robinson, a pediatrician (儿科专家) at Stanford University. “American children spend an average of more than f

36、our hours per day watching television and videos or playing video games. And rates of childhood being very fat have doubled over the past 20 years,” Robinsin said. In the study presented this week to the Pediatric Academic Societies annual meeting in San Francisco, the researchers persuaded about 10

37、0 of the students to reduce their television viewing by one-quarter to one-third. Children watching fewer hours of television showed a much smaller increase in waist (腰) size and had less body fat than other students who continued their normal television viewing, even though neither group ate a spec

38、ial diet nor took part in any extra exercise. “One explanation for the weight loss could be the children unstuck to the television may simply have been moving around more and burning off calories,” Robinson said. “Another reason might be eating fewer meals in front of the television. Some studies ha

39、ve suggested that eating in front of the TV encourages people to eat more,” Robinson said. 63. The report tells us that children will get fatter if they _. A. eat in front of the TV B. change their diet C. do special exercises D. spend much time watching TV 64. According to the report, the time Amer

40、ican children usually spend on watching TV and videos or playing video games _. A. is four hours a day or more B. is less than four hours a day C. has doubled in the last 20 years D. has been reduced to one-quarter 65. The time some children were persuaded to spend on TV viewing every day was less t

41、han _. A. one hour B. two hours C. three hours D. four hours 66. Watching TV will increase kids weight because _. A. they usually eat more and move less B. they no longer take part in outdoor activities C. they will not burn off calories D. they are encouraged to eat more D For years scientists have

42、 been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earths natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse. Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye pain, headache and other prob

43、lems. Some pollutants (污染物) can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer. Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution. People have paid more attention to the problem now. It is said that when builders began making houses and offices they did no

44、t waste energy. To do this they built buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases. As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it

45、. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building-green plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plants leaves absorb (吸收) or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and small organizations on

46、 its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square metres of space. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants.

47、Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place. 67. Generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside because _. A. indoor air pollution can often make people seriously ill B. man-made building materials give off dangerous gases C.
