But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled to $1.01 per pack smokers have jammed telephone “quit lines” across the country seeking to kick the habit.This is not a surprise to public health advocates. Theyve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve public health. They raise money and most particularly, and they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.In Manhattan, for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light Kings cost $10.06 at one drugstore Wednesday. Charleston, S, C， where the 7centapack tax is the lowest in the nation. The price was $4.78. The influence is obvious.In New York, high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys 13.8%, far below the national average. By comparison, 26% of high school students smoke in Kentucky, Other lowtax states have similarly depressing teensmoking records.Hal Rogers, Representative from Kentucky, like those who are against high tobacco taxes, argues that the burden of the tax falls on lowincome Americans “who choose to smoke.” Thats true, but there is more reason in keeping future generations of lowincome workers from getting hooked in the first place. As for todays adults, if the new tax drives them to quit, they will have more to spend on their families, cut their risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better. 1The text is mainly about _.Athe price of cigarettes Btie rate of teen smokingCthe effect of tobacco tax increase Dthe differences in tobacco tax rate 2The underlined word “deter” in Paragraph 3 most probably means _.ApreventBremoveCbenefitDfree 3Rogers attitude towards the lowincome smokers might be that of _.Atolerance Bunconcern Cdoubt Dsympathy 4What can we learn from the last paragraph? AThe new tax will be beneficial in the long run.BLowincome Americans are more likely to fall ill.CFuture generations will be hooked on smoking.DAdults will depend more on their families.B Ask any group of teenagers in the UK what they most like to eat, and foods like pizzas, curries, pasta, burgers and chips are bound to get a mention and many young people would probably also list hanging out at the local fastfood restaurant as one of their favorite pastimes (消遣). But what teenagers like to eat is not necessarily what they should be eating. According to the National Diet and Nutrition Survey, far too many young people in the UK between the ages of 4 and 18 consume too much fat, sugar and salt in their diet and take in too many calories. Meanwhile their intake of starchy carbohydrates (含淀粉的碳水化合物), fibre, iron, vitamins and calcium is too low. For a growing body, eating foods containing plenty of calcium, such as milk, yoghurt and cheese, is particularly important as calcium is essential for the development of healthy, strong bones. Similarly, foods that are rich in iron are good for young, rapidly developing bodies, so red meat, bread, green vegetables, dried fruit and fortified (营养强化的) breakfast cereals are also recommended. It is during our teenage years that lifestyle habits can become entrenched (确立的), so it is crucial that young people are educated about what foods are good for them. In 2005, and in an attempt to change eating habits and open teenagers minds to new flavours and new tastes, celebrity chef Jamie Oliver launched a “Feed Me Better” campaign. As a part of television series, “Jamies School Diners”， he worked with teachers and cooks in a number of schools across the UK to provide more healthy, nutritious school meal options. Although there was initial resistance from some teenagers and parents, the campaign was generally hailed as (被赞为) a huge success and helped to influence governmental policy on nutritional standards for school meals. No one expects to end the teenage love affair with fast and junk food but, hopefully, if projects like “Feed Me Better” and the Governments own “Change 4 Life” campaign continue to give out the right messages, more young people will understand the importance of balancing occasional treats with healthier food options.5What can we conclude from the first two paragraphs? ABritish teenagers eat too much junk food.BBritish teenagers need to take in more calcium. CWhat British teenagers like to eat is probably what their bodies need.DBritish teenagers should reduce their intake of starchy carbohydrates.6Young people need calcium and iron _.Ato improve their brainpower Bto build healthy strong bodiesCto provide energy for their body Dto help change their eating habits7According to the article, Jamie Oliver launched a campaign at schools to _.Ashow off his excellent cooking skillsBteach students how to cook nutritious mealsCintroduce governmental policy on nutritional standards for school mealsDdraw the publics attention to the importance of nutritious school meals8Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the article?ATeenagers shouldnt eat any junk food at all.BIt is difficult to make children understand the importance of a healthy diet.CIt is OK to eat a little bit junk food, as long as you eat healthily most of the time.DOur eating habits are developed in our teenage years and then influence our lifestyle.CRetail therapy (购物疗法) really does exist, and the desire to shop could be caused by a fear of death. It has long been considered as the ultimate (终极的) way to let off stress by some members of the women. Now, US. scientists have discovered not only does retail therapy exist, but that it could be caused by an individuals fear of sudden death.Researchers found materialistic people thought terrorism and war more stressful than others.Psychologists believe the rise of materialism around the world and its treatment effect on extreme stress might be a response to fear of death caused by acts of terrorism, disease and natural disasters.The scientists from Michigan State University said people with possession obsessions often have lower selfesteem than others so are more likely splurge following severe psychological trauma.Ayalla Ruvio, a business professor studying peoples shopping habits while rockets fell in Israel, said: “When the going gets tough, the materialistic go shopping. This compulsive and impulsive spending is likely to produce even greater stress and lower wellbeing. Essentially, materialism appears to make bad events even worse.”Dr. Ruvio led a twopart study of Israeli citizens living in a town that came under extreme rocket attacks for about six months in 2007. She compared 139 residents of the southern town with 170 from another town that was not under attack to see how their symptoms of posttraumatic stress and shopping habits varied. Dr. Ruvio analyzed the psychological condition of the two groups and found that, when faced with a mortal threat, those who are highly materialistic suffered much higher levels of posttraumatic stress, while their tendency to buy impulsively and compulsively was increased.Dr. Ruvio said: “The relationship between materialism and stress may be more harmful than commonly thought.”The second stage of their research, published in the Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, surveyed 855 Americans about their materialistic nature and fear of death. They found shopping was used to relieve feelings of stress and anxiety about death among more materialistic people, but this was in response to fear of a variety of lifethreatening events like car accidents, criminal attacks and natural disasters.9Which of the following opinions is NOT right according to the text?AThe materialistic believe terrorism and war more stressful than others.BPsychologists believe acts of terrorism, diseases and natural disasters cause the rise of materialism.CThe scientists think people with possession obsessions often have higher selfrespect.DThe scientists think people with possession obsessions have more severe mental trauma.10Whats the result about Dr. Ruvios research?AThe impulsive spending does good to peoples health.BThe impulsive spending may produce even greater stress and lower happiness.CFaced with great stress, people feel hopeless for life.DFaced with a deadly threat, peoples wish to shop will decrease.11Which is NOT the event threatening life that people are afraid of?AGreater stress. BCar accidents.CCriminal attacks. DNatural disasters.DStudents who date (约会) in middle school have significantly worse study skills, are four times more likely to drop out of school and report twice as much alcohol and tobacco use than their single classmates, according to new research from the University of Georgia.“Romantic relationships are a trademark of adolescence, but very few studies have examined how adolescents differ in the development of these relationships，” said Pamela Orpinas, study author and professor in the College of Public Health and head of the Department of Health Promotion and Behavior.Orpinas followed a group of 624 students over a sevenyear period from 6th to 12th grade.Each year, the group of students completed a survey indicating whether they had dated and reported the frequency of different behaviors, including the use of drugs and alcohol. Their teachers completed questionnaires (调查表) about the students academic efforts. He found some students never or hardly ever reported dating from middle to high school, and these students had consistently the best study skills according to their teachers. Other students dated infrequently in middle school but increased the frequency of dating in high school.“At all points in time, teachers rated the students who reported the lowest frequency of dating as having the best study skills and the students with the highest dating as having the worst study skills，” according to the journal article. Study skills refer to behaviors that lead to academic success such as doing work for extra credit, being well organized, finishing homework, working hard and reading assigned chapters.“Dating a classmate may have the same emotional complications of dating a coworker，” Orpinas said, “when the couple break up, they have to continue to see each other in class and perhaps witness the expartner dating someone else. It is reasonable to think this could be linked to depression and divert (转移) attention from studying.”“Dating should not be considered a ceremony of growth in middle school”， Orpinas concluded.12According to the passage, students who date in middle school may _.Ahave poorer academic performancesBbe more likely to hurt othersCenjoy better school livesDare less likely to use alcohol and tobacco13Study skills may include the following behaviors and qualities Except _.Abeing diligent Bbeing well organizedCbeing kind and helpful Dfinishing assigned schoolwork14What can possibly happen to the school couples after they break up?AThey dont want to see each other any longer.BTheir attention to studying will be affected.CThey will miss their expartners sometimes.DThey will think it reasonable to get depressed.15Orpinas attitude towards dating in middle school is _.Asupportive Bpositive Cnegative Dindifferent.任务型阅读 Rules on how to be a fit kidBeing fit is a way of saying a person eats well, gets a lot of physical exercise, and has a healthy weight._16_ If youre a kid who wants to be fit, here are three rules to live by.1Eat a variety of foods.You may have a favorite food, but the best choice is to eat a variety._17_ Taste new foods and old ones you havent tried for a while.
