In many ways, a diary and a blog are very32, but what makes blogging different from writing in a(n) 33diary? The biggest difference is that a blog is much more34than a diary. Usually, a teenager treats his diary like a book full of35that he does not want to36with others. Its interesting that someone who writes in a blog37 a diary will probably write nearly the same information. I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her 38. She writes about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test. 39I was her age, I wrote about the same thing, but40 in my diary. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was 41 that my sister might read it. The biggest42with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend during high school and wrote something 43about him in my diary, he would never know.44, if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend might 45her blog and get angry.

Find第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） (A) Less TV Reduce Kids Weight PALO AITO, California“ Switching off the television may help prevent children from getting fattereven if they do not change their diet or increase the amount they exercise,” US researchers said last week. A study of 192 third and fourth grades, generally aged eight and nine, found that children who cut the number of hours spent watching television gained nearly two pounds (0.91 kg ) less over a one-year period than those who did not change their television diet. “The findings are important because they show that weight loss can only be the result of a reduction in television viewing and not any other activity,” said Thomas Robinson, a pediatrician （儿科专家）at Stanford University. “ American children spend an average of more than four hours per day watching television and videos or playing games, and rates of childhood being very fat have doubled over the past 20 years,” Robinson said. In the study, presented this week to the Pediatric Academic Societies annual meeting in San Francisco, the researchers persuaded about 100 of the students to reduce their television viewing by one-quarter to one-third. Children watching fewer hours of television showed a significantly smaller increase in waist size and had less body fat than other students who continue their normal television viewing, even though neither group ate a special diet nor took part in any extra exercise. “One explanation for the weight loss could be the children unstuck to the television may simply have been moving around and burning off calories,” Robinson said. “Another reason might be due to eating fewer meals in front of the television. Some studies have suggested that eating in front of the TV encourages people to eat more,” Robinson added. 51. The author tries to tell us in the first two paragraphs that _. A. children will get fatter if they eat too much. B. children will get thinner if they eat less. C. children will get fatter if they spend less time watching TV. D. children will get fatter if they spend more time watching TV. 52. According to the passage, the time American children usually spend on watching TV _. A. is more than four hours a day. B. is less than four hours a day. C. doubled in the last twenty years. D. is more than on any other activities. 53. The time children spend on TV viewing every day is suggested to be about _.A. six hoursB. eight hoursC. three hoursD. one hour 54. Which of the following is right ? A. Children usually eat fewer while watching TV. B. Children usually eat more while watching TV. C. Children eat the same amount of meals while watching TV. D. Children usually eat nothing while watching TV. 55. Why can watching TV increase kids weight according to the passage ? A. They usually eat more while watching TV. B. They burn off fewer calories. C. They change their diet while watching TV. D. Both A and B(B) You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead！Of course he isnt really dead. With any luck he isnt even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks. There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is blown up in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment. Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action. For nowadays there are stunt girls tool.56.Stuntmen are those who _. A. often dress up as actors B. prefer to lead dangerous livesC. often perform seemingly dangerous actions D. often fight each other for their lives57.Stuntmen earn their living by _.

A. he needs little protection B. he will be covered with a mattress C. his life is endangered D. his safety is generally all right59.Which of the following is the main factor (因素) of a successful performance? A. Strength. B. Exactness. C. Speed. D. Carefulness.60.What can be inferred from the author s example of the Norwegian stuntman? A.Sometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman. B. The percentage of serious accidents is high. C.Parachutes must be of good quality. D.The cliff is too high.(C) We can offer you a place at one of the best universities in Britain.

They will, in a lifetime, push the chrome-plated contraptions many miles. But few will knowor even think to askwho it was that invented them. Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging（吃力地携带） groceries around in baskets they had to carry. One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business. On June 4, 1937, Goldmans first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldnt wait to see them using his invention. But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try. After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they werent using his carts. “Dont you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?” one shopper replied. But Goldman wasnt beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony（假冒的） customers. As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people ethose who came bought more. With larger, easier-to-handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before. Todays shopping carts are five times larger than Goldmans original model. Perhaps thats one reason Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937before the ing of the shopping cart. 76. The underlined words “chrome-plate contraptions” in Paragraph 1 refer to _.（No more than 3 words） _77.
