One time, I opened a big container of apple juice and kept refilling my glass. Before I knew it, Id drunk the entire container! My mom called my doctor. I then had a few blood tests, and the results were certain I had diabetes (糖尿病), which meant that the amount of sugar in my blood was very high.

I have to figure out exactly how much sugar I plan to eat, and then I get an injection of insulin (注射胰岛素) before the meal to help my body process the food. Also, I test my blood-sugar level often. Im always trying to keep my blood sugar at a healthy level. The level can drop when I exercise, but that doesnt keep me out of gym class or off the basketball court I just keep some juice boxes around to boost my blood sugar if I need to. Its a lot of work and not a lot of fun to keep track of everything, but Ive gotten used to my new habits. I was a little scared at first because I wasnt sure how my life would change.

The Times Higher Education magazine has listed 200 top universities all over the world based on how they are regarded by a group of international college teachers. That is to say, the list measures how universities are regarded, rather than how they actually performed.“A subjective, word-of-mouth (口碑的) quality such as “reputation” has genuine economic value for universities,” said Simon Marginson, professor of higher education at the University of Melbourne in Australia.“Reputation is not just an impression, though it might not be as reliable as performance by objective indicators (客观指标),” said Prof Marginson.Based on the views of 13,000 college teachers around the world, it confirms the power of the big US universities, which dominate this list. Seven of the top 10 are US universities, headed by Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Furthermore, 14 of the top 20 are from the US. Cambridge is the highest ranking UK university in the list, in third place, with Oxford ranked as sixth.“For students applying to university, reputation might be hard to quantify, but was an important part of the attractiveness,” said the president of Cambridge Universitys students union, Rahul Mansigani.“Reputation makes a huge difference. If there is an idea that somewhere is great, it will get lots of good people applying whether its true or not. Factors such as a sense of history and the presence of outstanding college teachers were part of the reputation of Cambridge,” he said.28. What is special about the latest ranking of universities?A. It is very subjective. B. It involves many indicators.C. It is made by international professors. D. It includes universities across the world.29. Which of the following shows the correct order of the ranking?A. Cambridge MIT Oxford Harvard B. Cambridge Harvard Oxford MITC. Harvard MIT Cambridge Oxford D. Harvard Cambridge MIT Oxford30. The underlined word “dominate” in Paragraph 5 probably means_. A. have an effect on B. make up the most part ofC. make an arrangement for D. make an improvement in 31. What can be inferred from the text?A. No Asian universities are among the Top 10. B. At least five UK universities are among Top 20.C. The Times Higher Education magazine is from the US.D. Reputation affects students decisions when choosing universities.DMost people looking for ways to quit smoking worry about weight gain, and with good reason. Smokers who quit tend to pack on an average of 5 pounds after they stop smoking cigarettes. A new study, published by the journal Science, explains why this happens.The new research explains that nicotine appears to bine with appetite-regulating neurons (调节食欲的神经元) in the brain, besides the receptors (感受器) that bring about addiction. These neurons help regulate how much food gets consumed, but under the influence of nicotine, they lose their self-control. This is why when smokers quit, they tend to eat more and gain weight.The researchers believe that their discovery will lead to the development of drugs that aim at nicotine receptors on brain cells that control appetite. In the future, weight gain may no longer be a reason for smokers to delay the decision to kick the habit, but thats no reason to wait. Nicotine-replacement treatment, while not for everyone, can help. Here are a few more ways to quit smoking and stay slim.Drink water. To improve metabolic (新陈代谢的) rates, make half of those glasses ice water. Juice can be too high in calories, something youll want to keep an eye on your journey toward being a slimmer non-smoker. Plan your snacks. Healthy snacks help keep your metabolism working, so you continue to burn calories while stopping wild hunger pain, or fake hunger. Keep moving. Exercise kills two birds with one stone. It helps you burn calories and prevents you from eating when youre not truly hungry. Its also a feel-good stress reliever (缓解物). Focus on your fitness and how being healthy makes you feel. Make exercise a goal and think of quitting as your reward for being physically fit.32. Which of the following changes peoples appetite according to the new research?A. Nicotine. B. Appetite-regulating neurons.C. The receptors that bring about addiction. D. The food that has been consumed.33. By saying “but thats no reason to wait” in Paragraph 3, the author means that _.A. some new drugs are going to be developed soonB. nicotine-replacement treatment cannot help everyoneC. losing weight should be an excuse for smokingD. some ways to quit smoking while staying slim are available 34. The author believes that _.A. ice water can improve metabolic rates B. smokers should eat fewer snacks to keep slimC. stress can lead to fake hunger D. exercise can help one eat less35. The purpose of the text is _.A. to introduce the result of a new studyB. to explain the reason why smokers bee slimC. to prove the possibility of being a slim non-smokerD. to tell us ways to quit smoking without gaining weight第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Have you ever changed your mind, or even given up a dream because you were afraid of what someone else might think of you?
