Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.
Some people blame(責備) the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation（一代人）） of grown-ups who don’t often cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.
There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will probably choose sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives. There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime(消遣), it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports. The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.
【小題1】According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food?
| A．Those who often take exercise. |
| B．Those who often watch television |
| C．Those who often have meals at home. |
| D．Those who often walk to school. |
| A．their parents often cook meals for them. |
| B．they are too busy to go out and play. |
| C．they can't choose what to eat. |
| D．there are too many fast food shops around. |
| A．forcing | B．guiding | C．driving | D．moving |
| A．We should encourage children to be more active. |
| B．Children ought to keep away from fast food shops. |
| C．Parents needn't cook meals for their children. |
| D．Parents should help their children form a good eating habit. |
| A．tell a story | B．provide facts | C．give advice | D．compare opinions |
【小題1】B
【小題2】D
【小題3】B
【小題4】C
【小題5】B
解析試題分析：文章大意：許多事實都表明孩子超重而且這種情況越來越嚴重。本文作者就此事實問題分析了原因。
【小題1】B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段When they get home, they sit in front of the television --- --- it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food.可知，經(jīng)�？措娨暤娜丝赡艹缘牟唤】档氖称犯�。所以答案選B。
【小題2】D細節(jié)理解題。 根據(jù)第二段最后一句If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.如果這種餐館少一些，那孩子們買方便食品的機會就更少。所以作者認為孩子超重的原因是快餐店太多了。所以答案選D。
【小題3】B 猜測詞義題。根據(jù)steering所在的句子therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.作者想說，我們應(yīng)該鼓勵年輕人更積極起來，也要“steer”他們遠離快餐店和一些不好的飲食習(xí)慣。所以可以猜測“steer”是指guide“指導(dǎo)，引導(dǎo)”。答案選B。
【小題4】C判斷正誤題。 根據(jù)最后一段最后一個句子therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active,說明A項正確。根據(jù)句子 --- away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.說明B項和D項正確。C項說父母不應(yīng)該給孩子們做飯，此項不正確。所以答案選C。
【小題5】B 寫作意圖題。作者一開始就提出Many facts suggest that children are overweight---并分析了孩子們變胖的三個主要原因，這些原因是通過列舉身邊的事實來分析的。所以這篇文章的主要目的是提供事實，答案選B。

IMAGINE that you are in school, giving a speech to your class.
Now think what it feels like when stammering(口吃)makes it a struggle to communicate your thoughts and feelings to other people.
The King’s Speech, which won the best picture at
the Academy Awards, highlights(突出) stammering along with other speech-related problems. The movie tells the story of Britain’s King George Ⅵ, who became king after his brother Edward Ⅷ gave up the crown to marry an American woman.
As a result of British actor Colin Firth’s performance, people are starting to realize that stammering can damage a person’s self-confidence and cause him/her to escape from life.
“The problem is unseen and unheard,” said Norbert Lieckfeldt, an expert at the British Stammering Association, in an interview with The Guardian newspaper.
“Stammering masks(遮蓋) your ability,” he said, “It's a serious disability(殘疾).”
Most stammerers face bullying(欺負) in school, something that is “usually carried over into the workplace”.
George Ⅵ’s stammer took away his confidence as a speaker. But Samantha Mesango, a speech coach based in the UK, believes that speech problems are more common than most people realize. “Some simply don't like the sound of their own voice; others are scared of speaking in public,” she said.
Travis Treats from Saint Louis University’s department of communication sciences in the US, praised The King’s Speech. He said it shows that “how one’s speech does not mean what one is inside”.
He also added that people who stammer need to be heard and our society should recognize that they have a lot to give to the world.
【小題1】 What is the point of the first two paragraphs?
| A．To tell readers about speech speaking. |
| B．To show how harmful a stammer is. |
| C．To draw the attention of readers to the problem of a stammer. |
| D．To show how a stammer makes a person popular |
| A．was a hero during World War Ⅱ |
| B．took the place of his brother |
| C．married a divorced American woman |
| D．was a failure because of his stammer |
| A．A stammer can destroy a person’s self-confidence. |
| B．A stammer is a serious problem for many people but it is often ignored. |
| C．People who stammer need to have their own voice. |
| D．People who stammer do better in work than in school. |

A brand is a name, word, sign, symbol, design, or a combination of these, intended to identify the goods or services of a company or a group of companies. Another purpose of a brand is to contrast one company from another. The most important skill of professional marketers is the ability to create, maintain, protect, and enhance the brands of their products and services. Branding has become so important that today hardly any company or product is without one. Therefore, brand management is an increasingly important element in marketing.
Brand power refers to the relative strength of a company’s brand in the minds of consumers, and can influence consumers’ choice of products. Brands are powerful to the extent that they give high brand loyalty and strong brand associations, name recognition, perceived quality and other assets to a company. A strong brand can be one of a company’s most important assets.
High brand power provides a company with many competitive advantages. A powerful brand enjoys a high level of consumer brand awareness and loyalty. Because consumers expect stores to carry the brand, the company has more bargaining power when negotiating with retailers (零售商). And because the brand name brings high credibility, a company with a strong brand can more easily launch new products with the same brand name.
Many companies use the advantage of a strong brand power strategically to expand their business. When a company introduces an additional item with a new flavour, form, colour or package size in a given product category and under the same brand name, it is called a line extension. Another strategy is called brand extension. This involves the use of a successful brand name to launch new or modified products in a new category, thereby employing brand recognition in order to increase sales of new products.
Brand recognition is certainly important. Because consumers often hold long-standing perceptions about brands, high brand power ensure a company continued sales of its products.
【小題1】What does the word “assets” in the 2nd paragraph mean?
| A．points | B．a(chǎn)dvantages | C．a(chǎn)spects | D．elements |
| A．a(chǎn) high brand wins the loyalty of consumers |
| B．a(chǎn) high brand usually sets a much higher price |
| C．it’s easy for a high brand company to launch new products |
| D．a(chǎn) high brand company is more competitive when doing business with retailers |
| A．happens when the company is developing a new product |
| B．means the expansion of a company’s business in its established field |
| C．takes place when the company introduces a similar item but with a new colour |
| D．refers to the use of an established brand name to promote a new product in a new category |
| A．Brand Power | B．Famous Brands |
| C．Company Brands | D．Brand Products |

Flight cancellations(取消) and loss of luggage can ruin even the best-planned holiday. The key to a stress-free trip is having a backup plan.
Fly non-stop. The worst problems involve connections, so it is important to take non-stop flights whenever possible. If you do have to make a connection, try to route through a southern city, where snowstorms and de-icing delays will be less likely. Always allow at least two to three hours for flight connections.
Check the weather. Check the weather in your connecting city, not just the arrival and departure city. If your departure flight is cancelled because of weather, you can go home or back to your hotel. Airlines promise to get you on the next available flight, not the next flight. That could be several days later on a sold-out holiday weekend.
Go early. The earlier in the day you fly, the better your chance of getting rebooked the same day after a missed connection. It will also put you ahead of stranded(滯留的) passengers who arrive later.
Rebook immediately. As soon as your flight is delayed or cancelled, get on the phone and rebook your flight instead of waiting at the ticket counter. If your rebooking is delayed, call or ask your travel agent to find a seat on another carrier, and then ask your original carrier to endorse your ticket to the new airline. Airlines are not required to do this but often do. Learn more at www. dot. gov/ airconsumer/ fly-rights.
Ship bags. A few days before your flight, ship suitcases or holiday gifts to your destination by a documented express service. It’s preferable to losing bags because of re-routed flights and sometimes cheaper than paying airline overweight bag fees.
Know your rights. Airlines are not required to compensate passengers for delayed or cancelled flights, but it never hurts to ask for goodwill vouchers(折扣) for meals, taxis or a room.
【小題1】When making a flight connection, it’s common that you’ll___________.
| A．stop in the south |
| B．choose a good city without snowstorm |
| C．be trapped in the storm |
| D．wait for two or three hours |
| A．through the phone |
| B．by waiting at the ticket counter |
| C．by changing another airline |
| D．by surfing the Internet |
| A．it will take long to rebook the tickets |
| B．your luggage is easy to be lost |
| C．you will pay more for your overweight luggage |
| D．with the same ticket you can take the next flight |
| A．pay | B．a(chǎn)sk | C．host | D．treat |
| A．The Worst Problem in the Trip. |
| B．The Preparation Before the Flight Trip. |
| C．How to Book the Plane Ticket. |
| D．How to Plan the Holiday. |

When it comes to hard, noisy traveling, we’ve found that sometimes we’d rather read about it than actually go. Here are some bestsellers for armchair travelers.
The Station by Robert Byron. In 1928, the 22-year-old man made a journey to Mount Athos, resulting in one of the best travel books ever written, matched only by Byron’s own, much more famous The Road to Osciana.
In Darkest Africa by Henry Monton Stanley. It’s about his great efforts to save an unlucky German doctor Eduard Schnitzer, who had no desire to be rescued at all.
A Traveler’s Alphabet: Partial Memoirs by Sir Steven Runciman. A to Z and around the world. He provides priceless information of long-gone princesses, priests, and places.
South: A Memoir of the Endurance Voyage by Sir Ernest Shackleton. As the planet started the global war, Shackleton and his brave group of explorers made an unsuccessful but heroic journey to cross Antarctica from 1914 to 1917.
The Michelin Red Guide: France 2005 Reading through this final listing of all the nice hotels and wonderful restaurants in France is better than going there, listening to Chirac talk about the poisonous American culture, and spending the price of this book for a tiny cup of tea and a cookie the size of your thumb.
The Past Is a Foreign Country by David Lowenthal. This great book of an armchair exploration tells us what has happened in the past and shows the relationship between us and the past travelers.

There are a number of different ways to study a language, each of which has advantages and disadvantages. You may find a combination of these is a best choice for you.
If you can find a course in the language you want to learn in your country, this is quite a good way to study. A variety of courses are usually available, including part-time and full-time courses. If you look around, you can probably find a course that suits your needs.
The main advantage of such courses is that you’ll have a teacher to provide you with instructions, support and with whom to practice your language. You will also be studying with others who are at more or less the same level and you can exchange ideas with them and help one another.
One choice is to study a language in a country where it’s spoken. There are many schools teaching English, French, Spanish, Italian and German, but far fewer teaching other languages. The main advantage of studying abroad is that you are totally in the language, not just in class, but the rest of the time as well. As a result, you can make rapid progress.
The main disadvantage of studying abroad is the cost, not just of your course, but also of your food and travel. However, if you’re a native speaker of English, you could get a job teaching English in a country where the language you want to learn is spoken.
Studying online is also a good choice. There are plenty to choose from a lot of languages. Many are free but there are some you have to pay for. Some of the paid ones provide support from teachers via email, chat programs, video conferencing, telephone or even face to face.
