For example, the top crowd decides that it is smart

2、to wear bright red sweaters. Very soon everybody is wearing a bright red sweater. There is nothing wrong with that, except the fact that bright red is not suitable on some people at all. The situation can even become dangerous, if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink or to drive cars at 7

3、0 miles an hour. Then the people who follow the lead are causing danger to peoples lives. They are like sheep being led to the slaughterhouse (屠宰场） Perhaps you have come across situations like these more than once in your life. In fact, at one time or another you probably did something you knew to b

4、e wrong. You may have excused yourself by saying, The crowd does it. Well, let the crowd do it, but dont do it yourself. Learn to say, No Make your own judge. If you know the crowd is planning something with which you disagree, please have the courage to leave them politely. Youll have the satisfact

5、ion of standing on your own feet.21 . The writer disagree to wear red sweaters if _ . A. the crowd is wearing them B. you cant afford them C. your parents disapprove D. you dont look good in red 22. The writer encourages the readers to _. A. follow the crowd B. be independent C. obey their parents D

6、. take the advice of their elders23. People who blindly follow the top crowd _ . A. will lose friends B. will make themselves happy C. sometimes do things against their better judgment D. finally become pace-setters (领跑者) in their own right24. Which is the best title for this passage? A. Rules for T

7、eens. B. The Top Crowd. C. On Being Yourself. D. Follow the Leader B Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this. Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealt

8、hy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food. There is another argument that blames parent

9、s for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they

10、will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives. There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play comp

11、uter games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports. The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steer

12、 them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.25. According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food? A. Those who often take exercise. B. Those who often walk to school. C. Those who often watch television.D. Those who often have meals at home. 26. The author thinks th

13、at children are becoming overweight because_ . A. their parents often cook meals for them B. they are too busy to go out and play C. they cant choose what to eat D. there are too many fast food shops around27. The word steer underlined in the last sentence most probably means _. A. force B. guide C.

14、 divide D. cover28. The main purpose of the text is to _. A. tell a story B. provide facts C. give advice D. compare opinions C Nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men. In a survey done for insurer Met Life, 51% of women said they drive more safely. The

15、 evidence is on their side: Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving. Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding (守法的) drivers, which leads to fewer accidents, the report says. However, not a

16、ll male drivers share the same opinion. Of the men surveyed by Met Life, 39% claimed male drivers were safer. The findings did back them upon one point: automotive knowledge. The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control, which helps

17、prevent rollover accidents. Auto safety unavoidably matters to Money. Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims, and for now, that mainly includes women. In general, women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men. A study by the website also s

18、howed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states. Among individual states, women get the greatest, advantage in Wyoming (where they pay 20% less), South Dakota and Washington, D. C, where their insurance costs are 16% lower. More than 11,900 male drivers died in US traffic accident

19、s in 2009, compared with just under 4,900 women drivers according to the study.

22、tural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside, may be one hundred times worse. Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blo

23、od and even cancer. Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution. People have paid more attention to the problem now.
