The doctor said Leon should first learn to get full use out of the hand he was born with, says Paul. As Leon got older, his father looked into buying a prosthetic hand, which can cost as much as $30,000. Paul found a more affordable solution. One day, Paul discovered a video on the Internet about Robohand, a prosthesis created with a 3Dprinter. He downloaded the free instructions and called Robohands creators for advice. They told him all he needed was a 3D printer一which costs around $2,000- and some materials.

When people eat more healthfully, exercise, quit smoking, and manage stress better, they find that they feel so much better that it reconstructs the reason for making these changes from fear of dying to joy of living. The latest studies show that when you exercise and eat right：YOUR BRAIN receives more blood flow and oxygen, so you become smarter, think more clearly, have more energy, and need less sleep. Two studies showed that just walking for three hours per week for only three months caused so many new neurons (神经细胞) to grow that it actually increased the size of peoples brains!YOUR FACE receives more blood flow, so your_skin_glows more and wrinkles less. You look younger and more attractive. In contrast, an unhealthy diet, chronic emotional stress and smoking reduce blood flow to your face so you age more quickly. Smoking accelerates aging because nicotine causes your arteries (动脉) to narrow down, which decreases blood flow to your face and makes it wrinkle earlier. This is why smokers look years older than they really are.YOUR GENES change. In May, a study was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences showing that changing your lifestyle changes your genes.YOUR TELOMERES (染色体端粒) get longer. Telomeres are the ends of our chromosomes (染色体) that control how long we live. As telomeres become shorter, then cells age more quickly, thus shortening our lives.Besides, one of the most interesting findings in the study was that the mothers awareness of stress was more important than what was really occurring in their lives. The researchers gave the women a questionnaire and asked them to rate on a threepoint scale how stressed they felt each day, and how out of control their lives felt to them. The women who were aware that they were under heavy stress had significantly shortened and damaged telomeres compared with those who felt more relaxed. On the contrary, some of the women who felt relaxed despite raising a disabled child had more normalappearing telomeres.In other words, if you feel stressed, you are stressed; if you feel fine, you are fine.1Which of the following are good for lengthening ones life, according to the passage? eat healthy food drink plenty of water take exercise get up early go to sleep early release ones stressABCD2The underlined words “your skin glows” in Paragraph 3 are closest in meaning to “_”Ayour skin becomes white as there is plenty of sunshineByour skin becomes smooth as there is much blood in itC your skin looks pink as you are healthyDyour skin becomes soft as you exercise enough3In the authors opinion, when you exercise and eat right, you will experience some changes EXCEPT _Abrains becoming clevererBfaces having fewer wrinklesCarteries turning narrowerDgenes being changed4From the last but one paragraph we learn that _Amothers will have more damaged telomeres if they raise a disabled childBmothers dont know how to handle stress effectivelyCsome women were asked to fill out a questionnaire about educating childrenDmothers positive attitudes are the key to managing their stress5The best title for the passage would be “_”AEat better, live betterBFeel better, live longerCLess stress, fewer diseasesDSmoke more, age sooner(二)【要点综述】 本文是一篇调查报告，讲述了生活方式对健康的重要性。1A细节理解题。根据文章第一段“When people eat more healthfully，exercise，quit smoking，and manage stress better”可知答案。2C词义猜测题。根据前文信息“YOUR FACE receives more blood flow”可知，glow 在文中的意思为“脸色红润”。故选择C项。3C推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Smoking accelerates aging because nicotine causes your arteries(动脉) to narrow down”可知，尼古丁使动脉变窄。故C项错误。4D推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段第一句话以及后面的调查结果可知，母亲们对压力的态度对成功应付压力起着重要的作用。故D项正确。5B主旨大意题。综合文章第二至五段可以看出，当心情好时，新的神经细胞不断生长、动脉变宽、基因改变、染色体端粒变长，因此人的寿命也会相应地变长，所以选择B，其他选项都是片面的。黑龙江省大庆市喇中2016高考英语阅读练习新闻报道类Directions: Read the following three passages.

Chinese and Nigerian media should pay more attention to their own growing roles and strive to present a reliable image of China to African audiences and vice versa(反之亦然). Agreement on this important step in ongoing cooperation between the two sides was reached by media representatives attending a media forum on September 19 in Abuja, Nigeria.The agreement comes in the wake of increasing attention being paid by the international community on Africas deepening relationship with China. This presents an important opportunity for media in China, Nigeria and other African countries. We should seize the moment to expand cooperation between Chinese and Nigeria media, increase our say, and contribute to cooperation between China, Nigeria and Africa as a whole, said Li Wufeng, Vice Minister of the State Council Information Office at the China-Nigeria Media meeting. The media meeting was jointly held by the State Council Information Office, the Chinese Embassy in Nigeria, and the Federal Ministry of Education, Nigeria. It formed part of the Experience China program, which aims to increase cultural exchanges and mutual understanding between China and other parts of the world. In the past, due to poor communication facilities, China and African countries could only learn about each other through third parties, in particular Western media, which may have given rise to and perpetuated misunderstandings. China is still not a constant feature or subject on the front page and prime time in the news media in Nigeria unless there are disasters and alleged human rights abuses to be reported, said Martins Oloja, Editor of The Guardian. Major Western media continue to promote a Cold War mentality and view Sino-African ties through the lens of geopolitics, framing everything as competition between East and West, Chinese and Nigerian media professionals said at the forum. Some Western media outlets accuse China of ignoring mutually beneficial solutions or sustainable development of African people, while robbing the continent of its natural resources. Nigerians cannot expect Aljazeera or BBC to report on Africa, and indeed Nigeria and China relations, the way we want, said Oloja. Mutually objective coverage will generate more cooperation and better understanding between China and Nigeria, said Li Xiaohua, a representative from China. org.cn, a leading multi-language website in China.【小题1】What is the purpose of this media forum on September 19 in Abuja?
