According to the American Automobile Association , since 1964 all cars sold in the United States have been equipped with seat belts (These are also called safety belts.) . Many studies of automobile accidents have shown that safety belts can save lives. One study showed that forty percent of those killed in auto accidents could have been saved if they had been wearing seat belts.

     Unfortunately, belts are worn only by a small percentage of drivers and passengers — about fifteen percent in cities, and only nine percent in small towns. And safety belts cannot protect people who do not wear them.

     In order to find out what kinds of people do wear seat belts, a study was made in several cities of the United States. The following facts were about those who use their safety belts:

    1. They do not smoke while driving.

    2. They have had more education than non-users.

    3. They know someone who was injured (but not killed) in an automobile accident.

    Advertisements based on these facts have been printed in newspapers and magazines in order to teach people the importance of using seat belts. But these advertisements have not helped much. Some people believe there should be a law requiring drivers and passengers to use safety belts. In Australia, where there is such a law, deaths in auto accidents have decreased twenty-four percent.

The passage is mainly about ______.

   A. automobiles in the United States                 B. accidents involving cars

   C. safety belts for drivers and passengers           D. traffic jams

The passage tells us that in Australia ______.

   A. a law requires drivers and passengers to use seat belts

   B. about 50% of the drivers wear seat belts

   C. the importance of seat belts is advertised in newspapers and magazines

   D. the auto accidents have kept the same percent as in the US

People who live in small towns _____.

   A. have fewer accidents than those who live in cities

   B. are less likely to use seat belts than those who live in cities

   C. welcome the passing of a law to require the use of seat belts

   D. are against the law that requires people to use seat belts

Many studies have shown that seat belts can save lives of those who ______.

   A. never wear seat belts           

B. seldom wear seat belts

   C. are wearing seat belts when the accidents happen     

D. sit at the back of the cars

Playing basketball isn’t ladylike. That’s what Jewell Chapman’s high school headmaster told her in 1961 when he was against the girls’ basketball program.

“We were very discouraged, ” said Chapman, a forward(前鋒)for her high school team of Des Moines.

Nearly 50 years later, Chapman is back on the playground. She’s 62 and plays for “Hot Pink Grannies”, joining about 10 other women on a team whose uniforms are black trousers and hot pink socks. They play in the Iowa Granny Basketball League.

It’s one of dozens of basketball leagues for women over 50 that have arisen across the country. For some, it’s a chance to exercise and meet people; for others, it’s a once – refused chance to make up.

“You see more and more elderly women’s teams taking part in state and national competitions,” said Michael Rogers, a professor in sports studies at Wichita State University. “In the future it will be something common to have leagues like this.”

Yearly surveys by the National Sporting Goods Association show the number of women aged 55 and older who play basketball at least 50 times a year has grown from 16,000 in 1995 to nearly 131,000 ten years later.

The women on the Hot Pink Grannies are good – natured but competitive when game time comes.

“I think I’m tough” says Colleen Pulliam, 69, showing off her strong arms at her challengers in a game against “Strutters”, known for their bright yellow socks.

Granny Basketball Leagues and similar groups spread quickly through much of the country, including California, Louisiana, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C.

1.Which is right about Chapman?

A.She thinks playing basketball isn’t ladylike.  

B.She is now 62 years old and feels discouraged.

C.She plays basketball again about 50 years later.

2.The underlined sentence “it’s a once – refused chance to make up” in the fourth paragraph means          .

A.it is chance to realize their old dream

B.it is chance to take part in sports

C.it is chance to earn a reputation

D.it is chance to compete for medals

3.Who is probably a player of “Hot Oink Grannies”?

A.Des Moines.        B.Colleen Pulliam.  C.Michael Rogers.  D.Strutters.

4.Which of the following statements is true?

A.Some elderly women play basketball with the purpose of getting wealthy.

B.Granny Basketball Leagues have spread all over the USA.

C.The women on the Hot Pink Grannies are good – natured and less competitive.

D.The number of women aged 55 and older who play basketball has greatly increased.

C.more and more granny players are confident about getting higher scores

D.Jewell Chapman’s high school headmaster has already changed his attitude

Do you know why some people are always healthy? If you study all the healthy people in the world, you’ll begin to notice some behaviors many of them share in common. For example, healthy people tend to live an active lifestyle. Exercise is usually a main part of their lives. They spend less time in front of a TV, and more time out and in achieving things and living life. Being on your feet all day and sitting in front of a computer can mean a loss or gain of hundreds of calories a day.

Healthy people surround themselves with other healthy people. We are highly influenced by the people closest to us. Surrounding yourself with healthy people tends to make you healthy by association. Not only are you inspired by your healthy friends, but there’s also a sense of social pressure to be healthy yourself when you’re around them. Who says social pressure has to be a bad thing?

Does your job make you feel bad? Healthy people have a job that makes them happy. We’ve all heard the saying that if you do a job you enjoy, you’ll never work a day in your lives. Happiness and health are highly related. Healthy people tend to be happy. Not only do healthy people tend to like their jobs, but they tend to live for them. They look forward to getting up every day and living their lives to the fullest.

People with self-confidence look healthy. Healthy people have confidence in themselves. They don’t worry about what other people think. They surround themselves with positive people, and they go about their days as if they can achieve anything.

Healthy people like smiling. Try smiling at everyone and not only do you get a smile back, but it makes you feel good about yourself. You’ve just made someone’s day better. Healthy people understand the link between happiness and health, and they tend to walk around with smiles on their faces, or laughter in their hearts.

Healthy people don’t wait for problems to come to them — they go after problems. Regular checkups(檢查) are the normal things for healthy people. People who live long and healthy lives catch problems before they become so big that they destroy their lives. They discover them early and then take action to prevent them from happening again in the future.

Do you consider yourself a healthy person? How many of these habits fall into your life? What other habits of healthy people have you noticed?
