5.Advances in health,education and disease prevention and treatments are making human life longer.But what you may not know is that some seemingly unimportant things can also influence how long and how well you'll live.Here is the latest research on longevity signs.
Sign 1:Your Mom Had You Young
If she was under age 25,you're twice as likely to live to 100 as someone born to an older mom.They think that younger moms produce healthier babies.
Sign 2:You're a Tea Lover
Both green tea and black tea contain catechins(兒茶酚),something that helps blood vessels(血管) relax and protects your heart.
Sign 3:You'd Rather Walk
"Fit"people-defined as those who walk for about 30 minutes a day-are more likely to live longer than those who walk less.So take a walk during your lunch hour,do exercise around the field while your kid is at soccer practice-try by hook or by crook to move a little more,every day.
Sign 4:You Have Strong Legs
Lower-body strength translates into good balance,flexibility and power,which,as you get older,play an important part in reducing your risk of falls and injuries,leading to better health.Now you see,it is necessary to strengthen your lower-body.But the question is:how?
25.Which of the following is TRUE?B
A.Green tea contains more catechins than black tea.
B.Generally,the younger the moms,the healthier the babies.
C.The more you walk,the longer you live.

16.We can always hear voices comparing the education systems in China and the US.It's true that(61)thereexist a lot of differences,but this cannot be an excuse(62)forhaving a passive attitude toward studying in China.
When I came back from the US last year and continued my senior middle school education in China,I sensed many great differences.I thought that school in China was too hard for (63)us(we) students,and that we didn't get to do enough fun exercise except running around playgrounds together.My mom had a long talk with me.After that,I realized that though high school life in China is harder,it can give us (64)more(much).The pressure helps us learn the true meaning of competition (65)before we step into society.It gives us a strong heart and (66)teaches(teach) us to step forward no matter what the (67)reality (real) is.It's like climbing a mountain.You might feel dizzy and nervous,but the top is always there waiting for you as long as you are strong enough
(68)to take(take) one more step.
We complain(69)mainly(main) because we can't see the whole picture.(70)whatwe
all need to understand is that success takes efforts and tears.

20.Breaking up large classes into several smaller ones (61)helps(help) students,but the improvements in many cases come whatever teachers do,a new research suggests.
New (62)findings(finding) of the research from four nations,tell an interesting story.Small classes work for children,but that's (63)not because of how teachers teach,but because of what students feel they can do:get (64)more (much) face time with their teachers,for instance,or work in small groups with classmates.
"These are the same as what researchers have already known,"Gamoran says.There is no good evidence (65)thatteachers change their instructions based on changes in class size.Teachers are always strict with their students.Some teachers are making use (66)of small classes and others are not.There are a lot of differences."It's not like that you reduce classes so teachers do something different and the achievement is higher,"he says.
In one study,researchers (67)closely(close) watched students'behaviours and found that students behaved better in smaller classes.They also (68)had(have) more direct communication with teachers and worked more in small groups rather by themselves.
One team,(69)led(lead) by Ronald Ehrenberg of Cornell University,finds that the potential benefits of class-size reduction"may be greater than what we observed"if only a few teachers change their teaching (70)to fit (fit) the smaller group.

15.Why is setting goals important?(16)FInstead of just letting life happen to you,goals allow you to make your life happen.
Successful people imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals.(17)CIt's like having a map to show you where you want to go.Think of in this way.There are two drivers.One has a destination in mind which can be found in a map.She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns.The other driver has no goal,or destination or map.She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver,but she drivers aimlessly around.Never getting anywhere,just using up gas.Which driver do you want to be?
(18)AThey decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals.Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident.Goals aren't difficult to set,and they aren't difficult to reach.(19)BYou are the one who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life.
(20)GWritten goals can be reviewed regularly,and have more power.Like a contract with yourself,they are harder to neglect or forget.Also when you write your goals in a particular way you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goal.

A.Winners in life set goals and follow through
B..It's up to you to find out what your goals really are
C.By setting goals you are taking control of your life
D.Because everybody should have a goal in his mind
E.It's difficult for a driver to reach his destination without a map
F.Because goals can help you do,be and experience everything you want in life
G.Research tells us that when we write a goal down,we are more likely to achieve it.
