第一節(jié)：閱讀下面短文并做每篇后面的題目。從A、B、C、D四個選項中，選出能回答所提問題或完成所給句子的最佳答案。（本節(jié)有11小題；每小題2分，共22分）

A quarrel at home may result in you falling ill. Don’t laugh, it’s true. Family matters including living habits and even the way we speak have a big effect on our health, doctors say.

Wang Xiaoyu, a Senior 2 girl from Xichang, Sichuan Province, fainted (暈倒) in class when she heard her classmates quarrel at the top of their voices. Quarrels between her parents also put the girl into a coma. It is because she is suffering from depression (抑郁癥), caused by bad relations at home, doctors explained.

 “We don’t get sick or stay well by ourselves,” says Dr Robert Ferrer from the US. Ferrer shows that family forces may explain up to a quarter of health problems, in his recent research.

The genes you get from your family may cause illness. If one of your parents has a heart attack, your risk of being affected may double. But effects on health are not only written in our DNA.

Unrelated people who live under the same roof also get similar problems. Diet, lifestyle and environment affect our health, too. 

Ferrer’s research also found that if teenagers feel they are ignored or unimportant at home they are more likely to get sick.

We may never fully understand all the effects that families have on our health. But just as individual (個別的) problems can have effects on others, a small improvement can have big benefits, Ferrer said.

45. Which of the following can best explain why Wang Xiaoyu fainted in class?

   A. Because her classmates often quarreled in class.

   B. Because her parents used to quarrel.

   B. Only the genes we get from our family have a big effect on our health.

   C. Our health has nothing to do with diet, lifestyle and environment.

  D. Teenagers who are ignored at home get sick more easily than those who are not.

   A.  Family relations.                                   B. The reasons why we get sick.

What a long winter vacation! I stay at home doing nothing except homework every day as a robot. One day, a idea occurred to me: “Why not to find a part-time job to learn something new?” The next morning, after visit many shops, I was lucky enough to find one in a small but pretty cake shop. When a tired—looking old man came in to buy some cakes, I immediate helped him sit down in a chair and brought him the cake. After he paid them, I said thanks to him. He looked too happy that he praised me with a satisfied smile. From this, I learned: “Be good to others or they’ll be good to you.”

I am a music store owner. One day, when I was cleaning the instruments in my store, I saw an old man come in. His short steps dragged on the carpet. “Is 77 too old to learn the banjo (班卓琴)?”  he asked.

   “You can learn to play it well,” I replied, holding back my doubts. My mind told me I was giving false encouragement. I reached the instructor’s schedule and gave the rates, the available time and the additional information that he would need. To my surprise and delight, the old man, Carl, began banjo lessons three days later with my most patient teacher.

    With nothing to do at home but practice, Carl made surprising progress. After breakfast he practiced for his required half hour. While waiting for lunch he picked up his banjo again for just a couple of minutes. Since TV was difficult for him to see and hear, he often played the banjo in the evenings. Carl was always early for lessons so it was a surprise that he didn’t arrive one Tuesday.

   The next morning I listened to the answering machine with sadness. “Carl’s in hospital,” the voice recorded.

   Two months later, I shared the newspaper obituary with the banjo teacher. We both shed tears for a surprisingly clever banjo student.

   Several months later, a woman came into the store carrying a plant. “This is for Carl’s banjo teacher,” she said. “I’m his wife, Mary.”

   “Why did Carl want to play the banjo?” I asked. Mary took a deep breath and let it out slowly. “Carl was at some show when he was 10 years old. He came close to the stage to watch the performers. When they were packing up their instruments, the banjo player said to Carl, ‘You want to see this up close?’ Carl climbed up on the stage and from then on he wanted to play the banjo.” Carl had waited 67 years to realize a dream! Mary gave the plant to me. “Thank you for the best six months of his life,” she said.

68. In Paragraph 2, the author’s reaction to Carl’s question showed that he ______.

    A. was willing to help                   

B. didn’t want to encourage Carl

    C. didn’t want to give him false encouragement 

D. encouraged Carl though he had doubts

69. How did Carl learn to play the banjo well?

  A. By working hard.                     B. By taking short cuts.

  C. By asking his wife to help him.          D. By finding the best teacher.

70. The underlined word “obituary” in Para.5 means a notice that _______.
