[主观题]

Dr. James Barry was the first woman in England to go to medical school. When she was grow-

ing up, women could not go to medical school. (77) So how did she become a doctor? She simply pretended that she was a man.

No one knows Dr. Barry&39; s real name, her birth date, of her family&39; s background. Some re-cords show that she was born in 1795 in London. Some people say she was the daughter of a rich man or a royal prince. One fact we know is that in 1810, James Barry became a medical student at the University of Edinburgh.

James Barry&39; s classmates made fun of her because she didn&39; t have a beard and she was only five feet tall. But no one thought she was a girl. At the age of 20, James Barry graduated from the University of Edinburgh as a Doctor of Medicine. She was one of the youngest students to complete her studies. Dr. Barry then went to work in a London hospital and studied surgery. A year later,she entered the army and became a hospital assistant. We will never know how she avoided the ar-my physical examination.

For the next 45 years, Dr. James Barry was a British officer and a successful surgeon. Every-one admired her. She began to do a lot of important work for the army. (78 ) At that time, Eng-land had many colonies around the world. Dr. Barry spent a lot of time in foreign countries. She travelled to India, Corfu, Malta, and Jamaica. In 1856 she went to South Africa, and she was sooL known as the best doctor and surgeon in the colony. She saved the life of the governor&39; s daughter, and later she became the governor&39; s personal doctor. People admired Dr. Barry, but she also had a reputation as a troublemaker. If people talked about her high voice or tiny figure, she became very angry. She was an excellent swordsman, and she started fights often.

Doctors are of the opinion that most people cannot live beyond 100 years, but a growing nu
mber of scientists believe that the aging (衰老) process can be controlled. There are more than 12,000 Americans over 100 years old who receive Social Security (社会保险) benefits, and their numbers are increasing each year. Dr. James Langley of Chicago claims that, theoretically and under ideal conditions, animals, including man, can live six times longer than their normal period of growth. A person's period of growth lasts approximately twenty-five years. If Dr. Langley's theory is accurate, future generations can expect a life span(寿命) of 150 years.

A.Within a few generations, most people may live much longer than they do now.

B.More than 12,000 Americans are over 100 years old.

C.Doctors and scientists disagree over the question of man's possible life span.

第3题
Studies of the effect that makes many of us slumber or feel sleepy during the queen’s spee
ch on Christmas Day have revealed that changes may be required in Britain’s drink drive legislation. Dr. James Home, director of the Sleep Research Laboratory at Loughborough University, is investigating pose-lunch sleepiness. We humans are designed to sleep twice a day, Once at night and a short nap after lunch, but in this part of the world we tend to repress that.

It is a remnant of the same primeval programming that makes all animals in the bush rest in the hot afternoon sun to conserve energy.

Hot environments make it worse and many cultures living near the equator, says Dr. Home, have conceded to be inevitable, where the afternoon siesta is the way of life.

In this studies Dr. Home has been investigating the role of alcohol. The theory is that if you are more sleepy after lunch then it figures that alcohol will be more potent after lunch. One would figure then that a pint of beer at lunch time has more effect than in the evening, when people are more alert. Indeed, we find that it has about twice the effect.

This has more sinister implications. If people take alcohol up to the legal driving limit, their performance is seriously impaired after lunch, said he.

It seems that alcohol interacts with the circadian rhythm of sleep to cause afternoon sleepiness, so that one pint at lunch time is equivalent, in effect, to a quart in the evening.

For this reason, most drivers ought not to drink at all at lunch time and the legal blood alcohol limit is no guide to "safe" driving here, said Dr. Home.

For those who wish to enjoy the queen’s speech, Dr. Home recommends mild exercise, splash of cold air or cold water on the face, or a cup of coffee. Otherwise, take a cat nap. But this should be less than 15 minutes, otherwise, sleep really sets in and one can wake up feeling very groggy and far sleepier than to be in awake.

It is implied that British people ______.

A.like to take a short nap after lunch

B.don’t take a short nap after lunch

C.don't feel sleepy after lunch

D.like to sleep twice a day

Historic Bedford Springs Hotel to Reopen in MayBEDFORD, Pa. — The historic Bedford Springs

Historic Bedford Springs Hotel to Reopen in May

BEDFORD, Pa. — The historic Bedford Springs Hotel is set to reopen on Memorial Day after undergoing nearly two years of renovations costing $100 million.

Owners are installing modern conveniences such as flat-screen TVs, wireless Internet access and a state-of-the-art business center, while preserving the original character of the facility's 10 buildings. "It will be an unusual blend of the glories of days gone by and ultra-modern conveniences," said Mr. Winston, general manager. "That's the challenge — when the property was constructed, the requirements of electricity and heating/ventilation were very different. There was no air conditioning."

Dr. John Anderson bought the property in 1796 after discovering natural mineral springs on the grounds. He built bath houses for his patients and the resort's popularity soared in the 1800s.

The Springs served as the summer White House for James Buchanan, and other presidents also stayed there. Owners say rooms of the 216-room will start at $250 a night. They hope to gamer a 4.5- to 5-diamond rating from the American Automobile Association.

What is NOT mentioned as new conveniences?

A.Videoconference facilities.

B.Flat-screen TV.

C.Business center.

D.Wireless Internet access.

Watching movie stars light up on screen may increase the odds a child or young teen will t
ry smoking, study findings suggest. In this latest study, researchers at Dartmouth Medical School in Lebanon, New Hampshire found that the odds of a child smoking increased in tandem (一前一后, 紧密相连) with the number of films with smoking scenes he or she had seen. This pattern remained regardless of other smoking risk factors such as having parents or friends who smoked, poor school performance or a self-reported "rebellious" nature. Dr. James D. Sargent and his colleagues report the findings in the December 15th issue of the British Medical Journal. In response to the findings, the British Medical Association (BMA) called on the UK film industry to "stub out" on-screen smoking. "When smoking is glamorized in movies, young people are encouraged to experiment with a lethal (致命的) habit," the BMAs Dr. Vivienne Nathanson said in a statement. And an editorial accompanying the journal report made the same challenge to Hollywood. "It is time for the entertainment industry to accept responsibility for its actions and stop serving the interests of tobacco companies," writes Dr. Stanton A Glantz of the University of California, San Francisco. Sargents team based the findings on a survey of nearly 5 000 Vermont and New Hampshire students aged 9 to 15. Students were asked whether they had seen any of 50 recent movies that the researchers had screened for the number of smoking scenes. They also answered questions about environmental risk factors for smoking, their personality traits and perceptions of their parents views on smoking. The investigators found that the number of smoking instances students had seen in the movies was correlated with their odds of having tried smoking. Kids who had seen 51 to 100 smoking occurrences were 70 % more likely than those who had seen fewer to have smoked. And the odds were nearly three times greater among those who had seen 150-plus smoking scenes. According to the researchers, the effects of on-screen smoking were similar to those of having parent or sibling who smoked. "The results indicate that exposure to tobacco use in films is pervasive," Sargents team writes. "More importantly, such exposure is associated with trying smoking, which supports the hypothesis that films have a role in the initiation of smoking. " In his editorial, Glantz agrees, writing that the study "provides powerful new evidence" that smoking in movies does contribute to adolescent smoking.

The passage mainly conveys the idea that______.

A.movie stars smoking on screen may initiate children to imitate them

B.violence on screen may lead youth to form. bad behaviors

C.media play the most important role in influencing children"s beliefs and actions

D.whether on-screen smoking can lead children to smoking has not yet been proved

Unlike most sports,which evolved over time from street games,basketball was designed by on

Unlike most sports, which evolved over time from street games, basketball was designed by one man to suit a particular purpose. The man was Dr. James Naismith, and his purpose was to invent a vigorous game that could be played indoors in the winter.

In 1891, Naismith was an instructor at a training school, which trained physical education instructors for the YMCAs. That year the school was trying 【B1】______ up with a physical activity that the men could enjoy 【B2】______ the football and baseball seasons. None of the standard indoor activities 【B3】______ their interest for long. Naismith was asked to solve the problem by the school.

He first tried to 【B4】______ some of the popular outdoor sports, but they were all too rough. The men were getting bruised from tackling each other and 【B5】______ hit with equipment. So, Naismith decided to invent a game that would incorporate the most common elements of outdoor team sports without having the real physical contact. Most popular sports used a ball. So he chose a soccer ball because it was soft and large enough that it

【B6】______ no equipment, such as a bat or a racket to hit it. Next he decided 【B7】______ an elevated goal, so that scoring would depend on skill and accuracy rather than on 【B8】______ only. His goals were two peach baskets, 【B9】______ to ten-foot-high balconies at each end of the gym. The basic 【B10】______ of the game was to throw the ball into the basket. Naismith wrote rules for the game, 【B11】______ of which, though with some small changes, are still 【B12】______ effect.

Basketball was an immediate success. The students【B13】______ it to their friends, and the new sport quickly 【B14】______ on. Today, basketball is one of the most popular games 【B15】______ the world.
