My parentsinlaws lived from hand to mouth, so we didnt expect any help from them. My parents lived a great distance away, and I was too ashamed to let them know about our situation.My husband was trying to earn a living with an old pickup truck, carrying groceries for local shopkeepers, but it was constantly breaking down. It took almost all the money we had to have it fixed. The truck was also the only means of transportation for us.We lived in the countryside, and we always used the back door because the driveway led to it. One winter evening, I stepped outside to take a bag of trash to the barrel and almost tripped over something. It was nearly dark, and I had to bend down to see what it was. I could hardly believe my eyes. There sat a large basket loaded with food.It was heavy, so I called my husband to carry it into the house. Once inside, we discovered two loaves of bread, some butter, several cans of vegetables, a can of orange sauce, and a large turkey. There was so much that I couldnt remember it all, but it was everything we needed to fix a wonderful dinner everything except potatoes.A little while later I remembered that I hadnt taken the trash to the barrel. By now it was dark, so I had to turn on the yard light and thats when I spotted a small bag of potatoes sitting on the porch.That dinner was the best I could remember.We werent able to thank our donators, though, because we never found out who had been so generous in helping a struggling young family. Whoever it was, we are forever grateful.语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。“我”和丈夫有两个孩子，很多年前，我们生活贫困。一天晚上，“我”在家门口发现一篮子丰盛的食物，那一餐让“我”终生难忘。“我”将永远感谢那位送食物给“我”家的人。8.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “impecunious” in Paragraph 1?AGenerous.

In fact, what you think of your own health is the best guide to how long you will live. According to researchers, it provides a more reliable estimate of lifespan (寿命) than whether you smoke, have lots of friends or are on many medicines.Researchers analyzed 29 years of data on the lives and health of more than 6,000 men and women from Newcastle and Manchester.The volunteers aged between 41 and 96 at the start of the study were put through regular mental tests, and were also asked a range of questions about their daytoday lives. This provided 65 factors which could potentially influence how long the volunteers lived. Perception (感知) of health proved to be the most important, ranking above all other factors when it came to protecting their lifespan. In other words, how healthy people said they felt provided the best indicator of whether they would still be alive almost 30 years later.Researcher Stephen Aichele said, “A persons perception of his or her own health status should be taken seriously. However, peoples view of their overall health is likely to provide more information.”“An active mind also ranked highly. People, whose brains remained agile (敏捷的) over the years, live longer than those whose processing power obviously slowed down，” the journal Psychological Science reports.Dr Aichele added that because various illnesses could affect the brain, a loss of mental sharpness could be a good indicator of deteriorating (退化的) overall health.He said, “Our study shows that both lower selfrated health and agerelated decrease in processing speed appear to be specially important indicators of death risk in middleage and older adults. If you know how healthy a person feels at a given point in time, and then you track changes in his/her mental processing speed with age, you can bine those sources of information to improve prediction about how long the person will likely live.”语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。研究人员通过对6 000名41到96岁的中老年人长达29年跟踪调查发现，对自己身体健康状况持乐观态度的人可能会更长寿。12What is the major finding of the study?AHealthy lifestyles may increase lifespan.BPositive attitude towards life may increase lifespan.CFirm belief in ones health may increase lifespan.DConstant use of brains may increase lifespan.解析：选C细节理解题。研究人员通过对6 000名41到96岁的中老年人长达29年跟踪调查发现，对自己身体健康状况持乐观态度的人可能会更长寿。文章多处(尤其开篇People, who believe they are healthy, may live longer.)提到此意。13What do we know about the volunteers?AMost of them were old people.BThey were tracked for 29 years.CHow they answered influenced their lifespan.DThey went through many physical and mental tests.解析：选B细节理解题。根据第二段“Researchers analyzed 29 years of data . Newcastle and Manchester.”可知。14Which will Stephen Alichele probably agree with?AExtending our life isnt a simple matter.BMany illnesses e from the loss of mental sharpness.CTo live longer, people should take health seriously.DA loss of mental sharpness may be a sign of bad health.解析：选D细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的内容可知，脑子慢有可能真是一个身体退化的标志。15Whats the purpose of the text?ATo entertain. BTo advertise.CTo inform. DTo persuade.解析：选C推理判断题。通过全文内容可知，这是一篇说明文，作者主要要向读者介绍了一个研究发现的成果，所以C项正确。.阅读七选五Why Leaving Your fort Zone Gives You a Chance to GrowAll of us want to be fortable.
