Our family loves the snow and cheers at the first good storm of the season. While others may think of Florida, we dream of a cabin vacation in New York’s Allegany State Park.

One particular trip, I recall, was jus a bit more memorable than the rest. What we now refer to as the snow pants incident began accidentally enough. My husband, Bernie, and our 2-year-old daughter, Faith, were building a snow fort while I sledded down a nearby slope.

On the way back up from one trip, I saw a small stone tumbling down the track I had just made. I was puzzled, since all the other rocks were buried under several feet of snow, as I stood and wondered about the stone…it jumped! This was no stone. This was a mouse.

Now, I love nature, but that doesn’t include mice. I loudly protested the invader, and Bernie, coming to my rescue, assured me that this was not a mouse but a mole, as if that mattered. A mouse or a mole I still didn’t like it.

Bernie and I stood for a few minutes watching the creature disappear from the path into the furry white and come back out again. But soon it disappeared and I headed up the hill again.

Shortly after I left, my husband screamed out, saying that the mole had gone up the leg of his snow pants. You have to understand Bernie can be quite a joker, and I smelled a rat. Not wanting to be a sucker and fall for another one of his jokes, I laughed it off. When he started running for the cabin, though, I stopped laughing and decided maybe this was for real.

“Don’t you dare take that thing into the house!” I yelled. But like a flash, Bemie was already dashing through the cabin’s front door, with his snow pants, the mole and all. If it were me, l，d have been down to my long underwear right there in the snow without a second thought.

A few minutes later Bemie appeared. We relished the rest of our winter vacation, drinking lots of hot chocolate, sitting beside the fireplace and admiring nature---from a safe distance.

In 2013，a report from The Nero England Journal of Medicine showed that increased body weight is related to the death rate for all cancers. This is based on a study involving about 900,000 people, spanning many years.

The study, started in 1992 by the American Cancer Society, included men and women from all 50 states. The youngest participants were 30 years old, and the average age was 57. By December 2008, 24% of the participants had died, just a quarter of them from cancers. In analyzing the results, researchers attempted to take account of such potential factors as smoking drinking alcohol, taking aspirin and a wide variety of other factors that might otherwise affect the results. .

The results are clear: the more you weigh, the greater your risk of dying of cancer will be (up to 52% higher for men and 62% for women). In men as well as women, the only cancers that did not have a strong connection with weight were lung cancer and-brain cancer. For women, the strongest correlation with weight was uterine cancer (子宫癌), which is 6.5 times higher for women with a BMI (Body Mass Index) of 40 or more. For men, it was liver cancer, which is 4.5 times higher in most obese (肥胖的) men.

Smokers tend to be more successful in keeping weight off than non-smokers, slightly reducing the risk. But many of them don’t have good lungs. Thus, in another way, they also face risks. As for why extra weight leads to excess cancer death rate, there’s no clear agreement. But the decrease in vitamin D in obese people seems a likely factor. Vitamin D is known to have a role in preventing cancer. Also, there is a simple fact that obesity makes the management of cancer more difficult. Although for now there is no simple answer to why obesity increases a person’s cancer risk, all we know for certain is that the risk is real.

8．The passage is mainly concerned with the relationship between ________. A. diet and cancer B. body weight and cancer C. sex and cancer D. smoking and cancer

9．The author develops the passage mainly through ________. A. time order B. space order

C. analysis and comparison D. figures and examples

10．The underlined word “spanning” in the first paragraph probably means “________”. A. lasting B. including C. happening D. changing

11．According to the passage, what can we learn about the study?

A. There is a clear explanation concerning why obesity leads to more cancers. B. Generally speaking, women face fewer risks of dying of cancer than men C. Women with a BMI of 40 dying of uterine cancer are more than other women. D. Smokers are still likely to face risks of dying of cancer though keeping weight off.

I was at my parent’s dinner table. Before me was a worn journal of thin and discolored pages. It was my grandfather’s journal and now belonged to my father. My grandfather had passed away in the months leading up to my birth. I never got to visit the places he had frequented and the people who had been a part of his life’s journey.

I was now about to enter his world, through the words he had left behind. Within minutes, I was captivated by the power of the written words. In the magical script (笔迹) before me, I was transported to another age when food was an everyday art, planned, prepared and enjoyed in the company of others， and a time when people had the heart to pause their own lives to embrace (拥抱) each other’s struggles. All this was conveyed to me in the beauty of the words that flowed together to connect with the writer’s mind and understand the world they lived in.

That kind of writing seems to be lost on us today. We have gotten used lo writing in bite-sized pieces for a public looking for entertainment, and hungry for information. No wonder, there are nearly 200 million bloggers on the Internet and a new blog is created somewhere in the world every half a second. Instead of adding to our collective wisdom, most of these writings reflect the superficiality (肤浅) and impatience of our day and age.

This not only robs us of the skill of writing impressive essays, it also prevents us from exploring what is indeed important. Writing humbles(使谦卑) us in a way that is vital for our character growth, by reminding us about the limits of the self and our appropriate place in the vast flow of life. Writing frees us by helping us explore the unknown so that we really open up to magic of the world around us. I saw all of this in the writing of my grandfather. And I’ve seen it again and again in the writings of the greatest thinkers of humanity. Their writing reflect deep thought on issues of human importance.

12．The underlined word “captivated” in the second paragraph can be replaced by “________”. A. puzzled B. frightened C. attracted D. defeated

13．In the author’s grandfather’s age, people ________. A. lived a hard life B. cared about each other C. were fond of writing D. treated food as an art

14．The author begins the text with her grandfather’s journal in order to ________. A. show her respect to her grandfather B. present the importance of good writing C. express her interest in reading as well as writing D. raise the problems with today’s writing

15．In the last paragraph, the author is trying to _________. A. discuss what good writing is like

B. express her strong desire to learn writing skills C. stress the effects of her grandfather’s journal on her D. show her admiration for her grandfather’s writing 二、七选五

When we choose to worry over what we don’t possess, we actually stand at a risk of losing whatever we already have. 16． Therefore, there is no way we can succeed in life unless our mind is first happy and satisfied and then yearns for more. Here are some ways to help you to be more grateful.

Choose to be grateful. Well, whether to complain about what you don’t have or to be thankful for what you have is a conscious choice you make yourself. Treasure what you have and strive for what you need next. Some are always worrying over what they don’t have or can’t achieve in the present. 17．

Look around you. When in fear or frustration, look around yourself for examples of patience and gratitude. 18． Observe how trees stand tall and brave the fury of storms, rains and the ever-changing seasons.

19．Once you have the mindset to be first thankful for the life you have, you will find hundreds of ways to do that. As you live your normal daily routine, you will find a number of hidden opportunities to be thankful for the bounties you have.
