11、But relaxation is 23 for a healthy mind and body. Stress is a 24 part of everyday life and there is no way to 25 it. In fact, it is not the bad thing that it is often supposed to be. A 26 amount of stress is important to provide motivation and give 27 to life. It is only when the stress gets out of
12、control 28 it can lead to poor performance and 29 health. The amount of stress a person can bear 30 very much on the individual.

And in more ancient days the choices made the 35 between life and death. The crisis we meet today are 36 to be so extreme, but however little the stress is, it requir
14、es the same response. It is when such a reaction 37 a long time, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes 38 . Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart disease have established links with stress. 39 we cannot remove stress from our lives, we need to find ways to deal

18、分 阅读理解 第一节 从 A、 B、 C、 D 中选出最佳选项: (共 20 小题,每小题 2 分,满分 40 分) A Robert Spring, a 19th century forger (伪造者 ), was so good at his profession that hs was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures of famous Americans. Spring was born in England in 1838 and arrived in Philadelphia in
19、1858 to open a bookstore. At first he prospered(繁荣 )by selling his small but genuine collection of early US autographs (亲笔签名 ). Discovering his ability at copying handwriting he began imitating the signatures of George Washington and Benjimin Franklin and writing them on the title pages of old books
20、. To lessen the chance of detection (被发现 ). He sent his forgeries to England and Canada for sale, Forgers have a hard time selling products. A forger cannot approach a respectable buyer but must deal with people who dont have much knowledge in the field. Forgers have many ways of making their works
21、look real. For example, they buy old books and use the aged paper of the title page, and they can treat paper and ink with chemicals. In Springs time, right after the Civil War, Britain was still fond of the southern states, so Spring invented a respectable young lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, th
22、e only daughter of General “Stonewall” Jackson. For several years Miss Fannys financial problems forced her to sell a great number of letters and manuscripts (手稿 ) belonging to her famous father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand. However, all this activity did not prevent Spring fr
23、om dying in poverty, leaving sharp-eyed experts the difficult task of separating his forgeries from the originals. 41 Robert Spring spent 15 years _. A running a bookstore in Philadelphia B as owners of old books C selling real signatures of famous Americans D as a forger 42 Why did Spring sell his
24、false autographs in England and Canada? A There was less chance that his forgeries would be discovered there. B The prices were much higher in England and Canada. C There was a greater demand there than in America. D Britan was Springs birthplace. 43 After the Civil War there was a great demand in B
25、ritain for _ A Civil War battle plans B southern manuscripts and letters C the signatures of George Washington and Ben Franklin D southern money 44 Which of the following about Miss Fanny Jackson is TRUE? A She was Robert Springs customer. B She was an imaginary person created by Spring. C She was a
26、 little-known girl who sold her fathers papers to make money. D She was the only daughter of General Stonewall Jackson. B PENRICE COMMUNITY COLLEGE Cornwall County Counicl We Need Two ASSISANT HEADTEACHERS From January 2006 L1317(44,70349,314) Penrice Community College is a highly regarded and succe
27、ssful 11-16 specialist languages college. Following the recent appointment of a new headteacher were restructuring the leadership team to create two new roles. One post will involve leading teaching teams with responsibility for developing curricula(课程 ) and time-tabling. The other post will be lead
28、ing student based teams and responsibility for student learing outcomes and the removal of barriers to student success such as poor attendance or disaffection. Penrice Community College is: A school with 1,350 wonderful students High achieving with results well above average Mentioned twice in HMCls
29、 outstanding schools list A British Council International School Situated in a beautiful part of mid-Cornwall All enquires for information and application packs should be made to Danielle Eyres on 0172672613 or at secretarypenricornmvall .sch.uk Closing date for applications is Tuesday October 4th a
30、t noon. Interviews will be held on Monday 17th and Tuesday 18th October 2005. 45 The underlined word “restructuring probably means _. A formally telling sb to do B Joining the two parts together C rebuilding sth and making it work again D extending the size of sth 46 The purpose of the above passage
31、 is to _ A introduce the advantages of a school B report the appointment of a new head teacher C call on more students to go to school D advertise for new assistant headteachers 47 The two new posts are required to do all the following EXCEPT _.

32、ted in learning C lead students-based teams D arrange new curricula 48 HMCI is probably the name of _. A an educational organization B a school leader C a political party D a news reporter C Space is a dangerous place, not only because of meteors(流星 ), but also because of rays from the sun and other
33、 stars. The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on the earth. Light gets through, and this is necessary for plants to make the food which we eat. Heat, too, makes our environment suitable to live. Various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of rad
34、iation from the sun are screened off. As soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or the walls of their spacecraft, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage. Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space. The unit of radi
35、ation is called “rem”. Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0.1 rem without being damaged; the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on. The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage a person may feel perfectly well, but the
36、 cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged, and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed(畸形的 )children or even grandchildren. Missions of the Apollo flights have had to cross belts of high radiation and, during the outward and return journeys, the Apollo crew accumulated a large a
37、mount of rems. So far, no dangerous amounts of radiation have been reported, but the Apollo missions have been quite short. We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere, working in a space laboratory. Drugs might help
38、 to decrease the damage done by radiation, but no really effective ones have been found so far. 49 According to the first paragraph, the atmosphere is necessary to man because of the following reason EXCEPT_ A protecting him against the harmful rays from space B providing sufficient light for plant
39、growth C suppling the heat necessary for human survival D screening off the falling meteors 50 We learn from the passage that _ A exposure to even tiny amounts of radiation is fatal B the effect of exposure to radiation is slow in coming C radiation is avoidable in space exploration D astronauts in
40、spacesuits neednt worry about radiation damage 51 The harm radiation that has been done to the Apollo crew members _ A is insignificant B is enormous C seems overestimated D remains unknown 52 It can be inferred from the passage that_ A the Apollo mission was very successful B the protection from sp
41、ace radiation is no easy job C astronauts may possibly have deformed children or grandchildren D radiation is not a threat to well-protected space explorers 53 Which of the following is TRUE? A Space is dangerous only because of meteors. B Explorers in space have to avoid the damage from radiation C
42、 We have got effective ways to treat illnesses caused by radiation. D The atmosphere doesnt screen off radiation D Have you ever dreamed of visiting a planet in the Milk Way (银河系 )? While the trip sounds exciting, it would take years and years to reach your destination. So in the future, bedtime for
43、 astronauts may be more than a few hours of regular shut-eye. They would have to sleep for years. European researchers are now conducting hibernation(冬眠 ) experiments. The study may help them understand whether humans could ever sleep through the years it would take for a spaceflight to distant plan
44、ets. “If there was an effective technology, it could make deep-space travel a reality,” said Mark Ayre of the European Space Agency last month. What seems like science fiction is not completely unlikely. Researchers have been able to use chemicals to put living cells into a sleep-like state. They ha
45、ve now moved on to small, non-hibernating mammals like rats. A major challenge is the fact that cells can be very simple systems, whereas body organs are far more complex. “Its like moving from a simple Apple computer to a supercomputer,” said Marco Biggiogera, a hibernation researcher at Italys Uni
46、versity of Pavia. Just like bears and frogs, the hibernation of human beings would cause a persons metabolism (新陈代谢 ) to lower so they would need less energy. Medical research, however, is just half of a spaceflight hibernation system. There is the challenge of designing a suitable protective shelter(栖身所 ). Such a shelter would provide the proper environment for hibernation, such as the proper temperature It would also have to monitor (监控 ) life functions and serve the physiological needs of the hibernator. According to Ayre, the s
