Fat and muscles are two different tissues（组织）, so muscle cannot ever become fat. When sportsmen stop working out, their muscles begin to shrink （收缩）because they are no longer being used. Within two years, the muscles are the same size they would have been if they had never been exercised at all. The muscles will have lost size and strength, but they will not turn into fat.
Still some sportsmen do get far after retire from sports. This happens when they were very active they need a lot of calories and they got used to eating a lot to supply the energy they needed. When they stopped working out, they didn’t cut down on the amount of food they ate. They weren’t burning up the calories they were taking in, so the calories were stored as body fat. If sportsmen control their calories, they shouldn’t get fat, whether active in sports or not.

Some people seem to have a knack(诀窍) for learning languages. They

They try to find the sentence patterns, the rules and the meaning of the new word by themselves. They are good guessers（37题）. They look for clues and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong, they guess again. They try to learn from their mistakes.
Besides, successful language leaning is active learning is active learning. Therefore, successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language; they look for such a chance.（38题）The find people who speak the language and they ask these people to correct them whenever they make a mistake. they will try anything to communicate. They are not afraid to repeat; they will to make mistakes and try again. When communication is difficult, they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know every word’s meaning.
Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose. They want to learn the language because they have an interest in the language and the people who speak it（39题）. It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them.

38. Successful language learning is active, so successful learners ( B )

Why don’t birds get lost on their long flights from one place to another? Scientists have puzzled over this question for a long time. Now they’re starting to fill in the blanks.
Not long ago, experiments showed that birds use the sun to guide during daylight hours(42题). How do birds fly at night? Test with artificial stars have proved that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the stars in their long-distance flights.
A dove had spent its lifetime in a cage and had never flown under a natural sky（43题）. But it had an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The bird’s cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky. The bird tired to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the position of the artificial stars caused a change in the direction of his flight.
But the stars are apparently their main means of navigation（44题）. When the stars are hidden by clouds, they apparently find their way by such landmarks as five courses, mountain ranges, coast lines（45题）. But it’s too dark to see these things, the doves circle helplessly, unable to find their way.

D. some birds seem to follow the stars when the fly at night
45. In total darkness, doves ( A )

1. Today, as in every other day of the year, more than 3,000 U.S. adolescents will smoke their first cigarette on their way to becoming regular smokers as adults. During their lifetime, it can be expected that of these 3,000 about 23 will be murdered, 30 will die in traffic accidents, and nearly 750 will be killed by a smoking-related disease. The number of deaths attributed to cigarette smoking outweighs all other factors, whether voluntary or involuntary, as a cause of death. Since the late 1970s, when daily smoking among high school seniors reached 30 percent, smoking rates among youth have declined. While the decline is impressive, several important issues must be raised. First, in the past several years, smoking rates among youth have declined very little. Second, in the late 1970s, smoking among male high school seniors exceeded that among female by nearly 10 percent. The statistic is reversing. Third, several recent studies have indicate high school dropouts have excessively high smoking rates, as much as 75 percent . Finally, though significant declines in adolescent smoking have occurred in the past decade, no definite reasons for the decline exist. Within this context, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) began its current effort to determine the most effective measures to reduce smoking levels among youth. 1. According to the author, the deaths among youth are mainly caused by _____. A. traffic accidents B. smoking-related diseases C. murder D. all of these 2. Every day there are over _____young people who will become regular smoker. A. 75 B. 23 C. 30 D. 3,000 3. By "dropout" (in paragraph 3) the author means______. A. students who failed the examination

一、阅读理解（共1道小题，共25.0分） 1. People have been talking about health for a long time because people know the importance of it. People's understanding of health also becomes deeper with the progress in scientific research. Recently the term "health" has come to have a wider meaning than it used to. It no longer means just the absence of illness. Today, health means the well-being of your body, your mind and your relationship with other people. This new concept of health is closely related to another term----quality of life. Quality of life is the degree of overall satisfaction that a person gets from life. Why has the emphasis of health shifted from the absence of disease to a broader focus on the quality of a person's life？One reason for this has to do with the length and conditions of life that people can now expect. Medical advances have made it possible for people today to live longer, healthier lives. Imagine for a moment that you were born in the year 1900. You could have expected on average to live until about the age of 47. In contrast, if you were born in the year 1999, you could expect to live to the age of 75. 1.______leads to people's deeper understanding of health. https://www.doczj.com/doc/f416370255.html,mon knowledge B.Progress in scientific research C.Better conditions of living D.Quality of life 2.According to the passage, to people of today, health means______. A.absence of illness B. a long life C.good conditions of living D.overall satisfaction with life 3.The emphasis of health has shifted nowadays because_____. A.people enjoy better conditions of living and they can live longer B.people pay more attention to their physical health, not their mental health C.people have realized the importance of mental well-being D.people are inspired by medical advances 4.We can infer from the passage______. A.nowadays the emphasis of health has a broader focus because of improvements in the quality of food B.the overall quality of people's lives improved greatly in the 20th century C.those who never fall ill are the truly healthy people D.those who were born before 1900 could not have lived until now 5.This passage is mainly about____. A.different understandings of the term "health" B.improving the quality of life C.the importance of quality living D.people's expectations of a long and healthy life
