But mon belief that high-office stress grays our leaders faster than _50_ may be a myth, new research finds. _51_, the majority of American presidents have lived longer than typical men of their times. The findings _52_ to a body of research linking high status to better health: _53_,Oscar winners live longer than those who were only nominated; and the longevity (长寿) effect is also seen in Nobel Prize winners. The new study, which was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association _54_ the dates of birth, inauguration and death of all 34 past presidents who died of natural causes. The _55_ lifespan for these men should have been 68 years，_56_ theyd aged twice as fast during their years in _57_ as the popular wisdom suggests they do. _58_, the study found, these presidents lived an average 73 years. And indeed, 23 of the 34 presidents who died of natural causes lived longer than _59_, pared with other men their age during their lifetimes. Some presidents _60_ an exceptionally long time: Gerald Ford died at 93. 5 years, and Ronald Reagan at 93.3. All _61_ living presidents have already exceeded their life expectancy, or are likely to do so. So why do people at the top of the hierarchy fare better than those below? _62_ to wealth, education and the best health care of their times would seem to be obvious factors _63_ medical attention seems to have actually killed President Garfield, who died from a fatal _64_-introduced by his doctors unsterilized (未消过毒的) treatment techniques after he was shot by an assassin. 50.

Lets assume you once actually pleted a couple of years of college work or even that you pleted your degree. Isnt it tempting to lie just a little, to claim on the form that your diploma represents a Harvard degree? Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University? Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms, then. If it turns out that an applicant is lying, most colleges are reluctant to accuse the applicant directly. One Ivy League school calls them “impostors (骗子)” ; another refers to them as “ special cases”. One well-known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says that these claims are made by “no such people”. To avoid plete lies, some job-seekers claim that they “ attended” or “ were associated with” a college or university. After carefully checking, a personnel officer may discover that “attending” means being dismissed after one semester. It may be that “being associated with” a college means that the job-seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend. One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the centurythats when they began keeping records, anyhow. If you dont want to lie or even stretch the truth, there are panies that will sell you a phony diploma. One pany, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put your name on a diploma from any number of nonexistent colleges. The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from “Smoot State University”. The prices increase rapidly for a degree from the “University of Purdue”. As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana is properly called Purdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper.65. The writer mainly wants to tell us that _A. college degrees can now be purchased easilyB. nowadays it is very hard for people to find jobsC. lying about college degrees is being a widespread problemD. employers are no longer interested in applicants actual performances66.

A. keep the records of themB. drive them out of collegeC. avoid direct conflicts with themD. accuse them of such behavior68. We can learn from the passage that _.A. US employers value their job applicants with a degree from top universities.B. University of Purdue and Purdue University are the same school.C. people with fake diplomas can get their first jobs in the US easily.D. people pay the same price for a fake diploma from different universities.BChasing DinosaursSchool is out and summer begins.

Bruce David Forbes is famous for his Christmas PoemsC“Im feeling a bit under the weather” is a mon plaint in Britain, especially on Monday mornings, and it seems that weather really can be responsible for moods. Studies have shown that changeable weather can make it hard to concentrate, cloudy skies slow down reflexes, and high humidity with hot, dry winds makes many people irritable and snappy.If you live in a place like Britain, where the weather seems to change daily if not hourly, you could be forgiven for thinking that the weather is random. In fact the weather is controlled by systems which move around areas of the globe. In the UK the weather depends on depressions, often called “lows”, and anticyclones, also known as “highs”. These systems start in the Atlantic Ocean, and make their way across the British Isles from the west to the east. Highs bring sunny weather, while lows bring rain and wind.The human race has always tried to guess the weather, especially in areas of the world where there are frequent changes. Traditional rhymes point to early attempts to identify weather patterns, popular poems include: Red sky at night, shepherds delight; Red sky in the morning, shepherds warning, Ash leaf before the oak, then we will have a summer soak; Oak leaf before the ash, the summer es without a splash, Flies will swarm before a storm. Rain before 7, clear by 11. Two other popular traditional ways of forecasting the weather used pine cones and seaweed. When the air has a high level of humidity there is a higher chance of rain, when the humidity is low, there is more chance of fine weather. Pine cones and seaweed react to changes in humidity - pines cones open, and seaweed feels dry when the humidity is low, while high humidity has the opposite effect. A recent study by an Australian psychologist suggests that certain people may have a special gift for predicting the weather. However it is possible that these people would use their talent in another way, since the same group had considerable success in forecasting changes in another chaotic system- the stock market.It appears that a study of weather patterns may also enable scientists to predict the outbreak of disease. An Ebola epidemic in Uganda in the year xx came after the same rare weather conditions that had been present before an outbreak 6 years earlier. Efforts to limit the speed of airborne diseases such as foot and mouth, are also strongly dependent on favorable wind conditions.72. What does “I am feeling a bit under weather” in Para. 1 mean?A.

Its controlled by depressions from Atlantic Ocean.C. Its pletely random and unpredictable.D. It is controlled by the alternation of highs and lows.74. Which is the following suggests the traditional ways of forecasting the weather?A. Using ships and balloons with monitoring equipment.B. Open pinecones and observing.C. Reciting traditional poems about weather.D. Observing pine cones and the seaweed.Section CA. Dont overwater.B. Prepare the indoor area.C. When to make the move.D. Avoid the transplant shock.E. Prepare the plants for the move.F. Plan aheadSome plants wont survive outside once temperatures begin to drop, so here are some tips for keeping plants healthy as you move them indoors. 76. _Because the climate varies widely across the country, the time to bring houseplants indoors in the fall also varies. As a general rule, Taylor suggests that a good time to make the move is when temperatures regularly dip below 60 degrees F. For specific plants or to determine when nighttime lows in the 50s might consistently occur in your area, contact your local agricultural extension service.77. _Decide which plants youre going to bring indoors well ahead of moving day. One thing to consider is the health of the plant. If a plant has been struggling to stay alive outdoors, bringing it indoors to low humidity, dry heat and low light levels will increase the stress on it and you. Give priority to healthy plants and those that have the most sentimental value. If some of your plants have increased in size and are about to burst out of their pots, its a good idea to buy any re-potting supplies you will need for this well in advance of moving day to avoid a last-minute rush to the nursery. Taylor remends a high-quality potting soil, appropriate containers with drainage holes and appropriately sized plastic saucers to place under the pots to avoid staining hardwood floors or carpets when watering.78. _The first thing to do is to thoroughly check the outside of the pot, the plants and the potting medium. Look for signs of hitchhikers, moss or mold on the pots and unwanted guests such as mealy bugs or spider mites on the foliage or earthworms, snails or ants in the potting mix. Scrub the exterior of dirty pots with a solution of 10 percent household bleach and then hose off the bleach solution. Then check the plants for dead or yellowing leaves, and cut them if shaping is required. Finally, several days before bringing the plant indoors, spray the foliage with an insecticidal soap.79. _Before “moving day,” decide where you are going to place each of the plants you will bring inside. Its always challenging to find the best place for a particular plant, Taylor says. A guide to doing that, he advises, is to place plants that require full sun near south-facing windows and plants that only need partial sun in an east- or west-facing window. One other option he suggests homeowners consider is to use indoor plant lights, which, he adds, are a popular and affordable solution when youre faced with less-than-ideal locations for houseplants.80. _Pots will not dry out as fast indoors as they did in the summer heat, and plants will grow more slowly indoors than they did under strong light conditions. Therefore, they dont need as much water in the house as they did on the patio. Make sure the soil is dry to the touch before watering. Succulents will need water less often than foliage plants.Section DCreative thinking is the process which we u
