Thanks to better health care, most people are living healthier and longer lives. Someone who is born today can expect to live about thirty﹣five years longer than someone who was born in the nineteenth century. It is even thought that in the future more and more people will celebrate their hundredth birthdays. Here are some rules for a health life.

Get off the sofa!

Sure, it is comfortable to sit on the sofa and watch TV. But doctors say you should get off the sofa. To keep fit, you have to walk at least 10000steps every day. In the past, people's jobs required more physical effort. They often had to walk for miles every day. When farmers were working in the fields, they were keeping fit at the same time. Think about it: Do you get the same amount of exercise today as they did in the past?

Eat healthy food!

It is important to eat food that is fresh and natural, for example, fruit and vegetables. Fast food is not healthy. You should only have itonce in a while. Eating too much of the wrong food will harm your health.

Rest while you can!

When we were babies, we slept for much of the night. Teenagers do not need as much sleep as babies, but it is important for you to get about eight hours' sleep a night. At weekends, you have got more time, so use it not just for your friends, but for rest too.

Do not worry, be happy!

Many people believe that happiness is important for our general health. Sometimes it is not easy to be a teenager because of the difficulties of school, exams or friendships. If you are worried about something, talk to your parents or your teacher.

    Today we can do everything with apps: pay bills, order food and shop for anything.Mobile technology means we can hold the world in our hands, However,when it comes to technology and health care,opportunities and challenges come together.

    Let's start with the ways to get health care.Telemedicine can allow a patient to use technology to see the doctor online and get a diagnosis (诊断) and instructions without leaving home.

    In addition, there are many patient websites. These allow for different kinds of interactions about our health needs without involving the medical team.Setting a date with doctors and reading lab results are readily achieved by technology.

    A whole new age of medical care seems likely (可能的) to come in the future.But every coin has two sides. What might be on the other side of techno﹣health care?

    Firstly, we should think about the health care experience as a whole.A usual visit to a doctor begins with a receptionist (接待员) ,who can see and tell how a patient is doing, This may influence the treatment effect. It's unlikely that a patient website will have such intuition

    Next, sharing the details of one's life requires trust, which takes time to build. This is certainly true in health care, where some of life's best and worst moments involve doctors. The human touch should not be undervalued and is unlikely to be there over the smartphone.

    Lastly, test results can be difficult to understand. When someone without a medical degree sees a flagged result with no explanation on the website, there's room for all kinds of stories to form in their minds﹣and also great worry.

    So how does medicine adapt (适应) to the new technology age? Very talented companies are working on it. There is medical equipment(设备) that can be used at home to send necessary signs and heart sounds through telemedicine.It seems likely that some companies will find a way to explain test results.

    But what it will not achieve is the warmth of human interaction and touch. Patients often need someone to listen to ﹣and care about﹣their journey story, which will never be realized through a human﹣less technology.Technology should be a tool,but depending on it totally will most certainly have unexpected effects. Let's not allow our humanity to be one of them.

(1)According to the passage, how does technology help health care?  

A. It encourages doctors to voice their needs on the websites.

B. It offers the patient a convenient way to get a diagnosis.

C. It improves relations between doctors and patients.

D. It provides an opportunity to build a medical team.

(2)The word "intuition" in Paragraph 5 probably means  

A. an ability to understand

B. an interesting experience

C. a chance to win

D. a fair decision

(3)What do you know about techno﹣health care from the passage?  

A. Patient websites require trust from doctors.

B. Talented companies can give medical advice.

C. Flagged results may cause worry for patients.

D. Medical equipment collects patients' stories.

(4)The writer probably agrees that  

A. technology can deal with unexpected effects.

B. telemedicine can take the place of usual health care.

C, it is difficult for patients to adapt to the new technology age.

D. techno﹣health care should take humanity into consideration.

Have you ever heard the phrase "You never get a second chance to make a first impression(印象)"? It may sound like an unusual piece of advice,but it is true﹣the first impression someone has of you when meeting you for the first time will probably influence how that person treats you or reacts to you in the future.

    What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds.When you meet someone for the first time,by the time you have stated your name or shaken hands,the other person has already formed an opinion about the kind of person you are.

    So how do you make a good first impression?All things grown up tell you such as being polite,and being well﹣dressed are very important.However,the most important tool for making a good first impression is your face.

    Smiling,being responsive,and looking like you are happy will almost always leave a positive(积极的)impression on people,especially those who do not know you.Most people,generally speaking,are ready to smile back when they are smiled at.

    Furthermore,smiling and being in a positive mood helps you to know and get a better understanding of new things.This means that you can possibly be friendlier to people you do not know and be more creative and able to solve problems more quickly.So if you ever need a reason to be happy,think about the wonderful people you might meet and impress with a cheerful smile.

A.回应

B.道歉

Say you're sitting around with some friends playing video games and someone mentions a game that happens to be one of your favorites."Oh,that game's easy.So not worth the time,"one of your friends says.The others agree.Although you enjoy the game quite a lot,not wanting to argue with them,you go along with the crowd.

    You have just experienced what is commonly referred to as peer pressure(同伴压力),also called peer

influence.You will adopt a certain type of behavior,dress,or attitude in order to be accepted as part of a group of your"peers".As a teen,you are likely to have experienced the effect of peer pressure in a number of different areas.

    We are all influenced by our peers at any age.For teens,as school and other activities take you away

from home,you may spend more time with your friends than with your family.As you become more

independent,your peers naturally play a greater role in your life.

    According to Dr.Casey from Cornell University,teens are very quick and accurate in making decisions

on their own and in situations where they have time to think.However,when they make decisions in the

heat of the momentor in social situations,their decisions are often influenced by factors like peers.In a

recent study,teen volunteers played a video driving game,either alone or with friends watching.The

researchers discovered that the number of risks teens took more than doubled when their friends were

watching,compared with when they played alone.This shows that teens may find it more difficult to control risky behavior when their friends are around,or in situations where they are extremely angry.

    Just as people can influence us to make unwise choices,they can also influence us to make good ones.A teen might join in a volunteer project because his or her friends are doing it,or get good grades because his or her friends think getting good grades is important.In fact,friends often encourage each other to study,or try out for sports.

    While we are always influenced by those around us,the decision to act or not is up to us.So when it

comes to decision making,the choice is up to you.

52.According to the passage,Dr.Casey probably agrees that teens   

A.like to play driving games with their friends

B.prefer situations where they have time to think

C.may take more risks when their friends are around

D.are slow in making decisions when they are on their own

53.The words" in the heat of the moment"in Paragraph 4 probably mean"   ".

A.when teens avoid possible risks

B.when teens trust their judgment

C.when teens lose control over their anger

D.when teens give consideration to situations

54.What can we learn from the passage?   

A.Teens are eager to be different from their peers.

B.Peer pressure has effects on both teens and adults.

C.Peer pressure does more harm than good to teens.

D.Tees think it challenging to get good grades at school.

55.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?   

A.Peer Pressure:Is It Necessary to Deal with It?

B.Peer Pressure:Is It Possible to Get Away from It?

C.Peer Pressure:Its Benefits to Teens and Friend Making

D.Peer Pressure:Its Influence on Teens and Decision Making.

Heads Up!

    In November,the US Soccer Federation,the biggest soccer organization in the US introduces new rules to make the sport safer for young players.This organization

announced that players on its teams who are 10 or younger are no longer allowed to head the ball.Players aged from 11 to 13 have limits on how often they can practice heading.The new rules are designed to prevent kids from getting concussions﹣injuries caused by a blow to the head that shakes the brain inside the   skull(头骨).Common symptoms(症状) include headaches and dizziness.

    A DANGEROUS MOVE

    Heading the ball can be one of the riskiest parts of soccer.Sometimes the force of hitting the ball with their heads gives players concussions.But more often,players receive concussions when they jump to head the   ball and accidentally knock heads with other players or fall and hit their heads on the grass.

    "More concussions happen during the act of heading than any other action in soccer,"explains Dr.Robert Cantu,an expert on brain injuries.
