Center for
Excellence in Child and Adolescent Health Research
Our research center was created to promote the
health of babies, children, adolescents, and
young adults by advancing meaningful and
creative clinical（临床的）research. Through this
website, we brings participants, families,
researchers, health care providers, and the
community
into our research home where we can
learn from one another. Together, we can promote
the health
of children and youth by advancing
meaningful and innovative clinical research.
For Families & Caregivers
Currently,
guidelines for treating children are often based
on data from adult studies. To
improve
clinical care of children, more studies are needed
focusing on children’s health with the
goal to
better diagnose, treat, and prevent the diseases
that are specific to children. Learn how you
can help doctors and nurses provide the best
care.
For Teens & Young Adults
We
need adolescents and young adults like you to help
doctors and nurses provide the best
care they
can. Doctors and nurses use what they learn from
research studies to take care of patients,
but
most of this research has been done with adults.
Your bodies are different from older adults
and your health needs are different too! We
need you to help us learn about the best
treatments for
teens and young adults and you
can make a difference.
For Health Care
Providers
Considering the state of
children treatment, child health research is the
best way to advance
medical care for children.
We need children of different ages, genders,
races, and neighborhoods
to participate in
studies so doctors will know which treatments work
best for children.
21. How will the center
promote the health of children?
A. By
researching the effects of adult medicine on
children.
B. By comparing and
learning research results of the community.
C. By making creative clinical research.
D. By connecting with families and communities
regularly.
22. What are guidelines for
children treatment based on?
A.
Information from adult studies. B. Data
from children too long ago.
C. Statistics
with connection of parents. D. Experience built
up through generations.
23. Who does the
passage ask for help for the research?
A.
Doctors and researchers. B. Teachers
and researchers.
C. Social health care
workers. D. Teens and young adults.

What Theresa Loe is doing proves that a
large farm isn’t prerequisite for a modern
grow-your-own lifestyle. On a mere 110 of an
acre in Los Angeles, Loe and her family grow,
can
（装罐）and preserve much of the food they
consume.
Loe is a master food preserver,
gardener and canning expert. She also operates a
website,
where she shares her tips and
recipes, with the goal of demonstrating that every
has the ability to
control what’s on their
plate.
Loe initially went to school to become
an engineer, but she quickly learned that her
enthusiasm was mainly about growing and
preparing her own food. “I got into cooking my own
food and started growing my own herbs (香草) and
foods for that fresh flavor,”she said. Engineer
by day, Loe learned cooking at night school.
She ultimately purchased a small piece of land
with
her husband and began growing their own
foods.
“I teach people how to live farm-fresh
without a farm,” Loe said. Through her website Loe
emphasizes that “anybody can do this
anywhere.” Got an apartment with a balcony （阳台）?
Plant
some herbs. A window? Perfect spot for
growing. Start with herbs, she recommends, because
“they’re very forgiving.” Just a little of the
herbs “can take your regular cooking to a whole
new
level,” she added. “I think it’s a great
place to start.” “Then? Try growing something from
a seed,
she said, like a tomato or some tea.”
Canning is a natural extension of the planting
she does. With every planted food. Loe noted,
there’s a moment when it’s bursting with its
absolute peak flavor. “I try and keep it in a time
capsule in a canning jar,” Loe said.
“Canning for me is about knowing what’s in your
food,
knowing where it comes from.”
In
addition to being more in touch with the food
she’s eating, another joy comes from passing
this knowledge and this desire for good food
to her children: “Influencing them and telling
them
your opinion on not only being careful
what we eat but understanding the bigger picture,”
she
said, “that if we don’t take care of the
earth, no will.”
underlined word
“prerequisite” (Pare. 1) is closest in meaning to
“______”.
A. recipe B. substitute C.
requirement D. challenge
does Loe suggest
starting with herbs?
A. They are used daily.
B. They are easy to grow.
C. They can grow
very tall
D. They can be eaten uncooked
ing to Loe, what is the benefit of canning her
planted foods?
A. It can preserve their best
flavor
B. It can promote her online
sales
C. It can better her cooking skills
D. It can improve their nutrition
is
the“the bigger picture” (Para. 6) that Loe wishes
her children to understand?
A. The knowledge
about good food
B. The way to live a grow-our-
own life
C. The joy of getting in touch with
foods
D. The responsibility to protect our
earth
C
As Internet users become more
dependent on the Internet to store information,
are people
remember less? If you know your
computer will save information, why store it in
your own
personal memory, your brain? Experts
are wondering if the Internet is changing what we
remember and how.
In a recent study,
Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some
experiments. She and her
research team wanted
to know the Internet is changing memory. In the
first experiment, they gave
people 40
unimportant facts to type into a computer. The
first group of people understood that the
computer would save the information. The
second group understood that the computer would
not
save it. Later, the second group
remembered the information better. People in the
first group knew
they could find the
information again, so they did not try to remember
it.
In another experiment, the researchers
gave people facts to remember, and told them where
to
find the information on the Internet. The
information was in a specific computer folder
(文件夹).
Surprisingly, people later remember the
folder location (位置) better than the facts. When
people
use the Internet, they do not remember
the information. Rather, they remember how to find
it. This
is called 交互记忆)
According to
Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor
memories as a result of the
Internet. Instead,
computer users are developing stronger transactive
memories; that is, people are
learning how to
organize huge quantities of information so that
they are able to access it at a later
date.
This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or
less intelligent, but there is no doubt that
the way we use memory is changing.
28. The
passage begins with two questions to ______.
A. introduce the main topic B. show the
author's attitude
D. explain how to store
information C. describe how to use the Internet.
29. What can we learn about the first
experiment?
A. Sparrow's team typed the
information into a computer.
B. The two
groups remembered the information equally well.
C. The first group did not try to remember the
information.
D. The second group did not
understand the information.
30. In transactive
memory, people ______.
A. keep the information
in mind B. change the quantity of information
C. organize information like a computer D.
remember how to find the information
31. What
is the effect of the Internet according to
Sparrow's research?
A. We are using memory
differently. B. We are becoming more intelligent.
C. We have poorer memories than before. D. We
need a better way to access information.
D
The values of artistic works, according to
cultural relativism(相对主义), are simply
reflections of local social and
economic conditions. Such a view, however, fails
to explain the
ability of some works of art to
excite the human mind across cultures and through
centuries.
History has witnessed the endless
productions of Shakespearean plays in every major
language of the world. It is never rare to
find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls, as
Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris
galleries, Unique works of this kind are different
from
today’s popular art, even if they began
as works of popular art. They have set themselves
apart in
their timeless appeal and will
probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.
In a 1757 essay, the philosopher David Hume
argued that because“the general principles of
taste are uniform(不变的) in human nature,”the
value of some works of art might be essentially
permanent. He observed that Homer was still
admired after two thousand years. Works of this
type,
he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying
features of human nature and could continue to
exist
over centuries.
Now researchers are
applying scientific methods to the study of the
universality of art. For
example, evolutionary
psychology is being used by literary scholars to
explain the long-lasting
themes and plot
devices in fiction. The structures of musical
pieces are now open to experimental
analysis
as never before. Research findings seem to
indicate that the creation by a great artist is as
permanent an achievement as the discovery by a
great scientist.
32. According to the passage,
what do we know about cultural relativism?
A.
It introduces different cultural values.
B. It
explains the history of artistic works.
C. It
relates artistic values to local conditions.
D. It excites the human mind throughout the
world.
33. In Paragraph 2, the artists are
mentioned in order to show that _____ .
A.
great works of art can go beyond national
boundaries
B. history gives art works special
appeal to set them apart
C. popular arts are
hardly distinguishable from great arts
D.
great artists are skilled at combining various
cultures
34. According to Hume, some works of
art can exist for centuries because_____ .
A .they are results of scientific study
B.
they establish some general principles of art
C. they are created by the world’s
greatest artists
D. they appeal to unchanging
features of human nature
35. Which of the
following can best serve as the title of the
passage?
A. Are Artistic Values Universal?
C. Is Human Nature Uniform?

This Way to Dreamland
Daydreaming means people
think about something pleasant, especially when
this makes them
forget what they should be
doing. Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being
unaware of what’s
happening around them. They
can seem forgetful and clumsy._36__They annoy us
because they
seem to be ignoring us and
missing the important things.
But daydreamers
are also responsible for some of the greatest
ideas and achievements in
human history.
__37__ Can you imagine what kind of world we would
have without such ideas
and inventions?
So
how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and
avoid falling over tree roots or
otherwise
looking like a fool?
First, understand that
some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better
than others.
Feeling safe and relaxed will
help you to slip into daydreams.__38_ And if you
want to improve
your chances of having a
creative idea while you’re daydreaming, try to do
it while you are
involved in another
task—preferably something simple, like taking a
shower or walking, or even
making meaningless
drawings.
It’s also important to know how to
avoid daydreams for those times when you really
need to
concerntrate. “Mindfulness”, being
focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid
falling
asleep.__39__
Finally, you never
know what wonderful idea might strike while your
mind has moved
slowly away.____40_
Always
remember that your best ideas might come when your
head is actually in the clouds.
B. Are Popular Arts Permanent?
D. Is
Cultural Relativism Scientific?
A.
Having interesting things to think about also
helps.
B. They stare off into space and wander
by themselves.
C. Without wandering minds, we
wouldn’t have relatively, Coke or Post-it notes.
D. At one time, daydreaming was thought to be
a cause of some mental illnesses.
E. It
involves slow, steady breathing for self-control
that helps people stay calm and attentive.
F.
Daydreams are often very simple and direct, quite
unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to
understand.
G. Therefore, it’s a good idea
to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when
you’re in the
daydream zone.

Dear
Smith，
I’m Li Hua，a student in China．Knowing
that you are eager to learn something more about
Mobile Payment in China，I deeply welcome the
opportunity to give you a brief introduction about
it．
As you know，Mobile Payment has been a
tendency in China．On the one hand，its convenience
as well as efficiency makes it possible for us
to take with us only a mobile phone rather than
much
cash，which saves us much time and
trouble．On the other hand，Mobile Payment is widely
used
in our daily life，like paying
bills，booking tickets and so on．In a word，Mobile
Payment is used
in nearly everything and has
really changed our life．
I will greatly
appreciate it if my introduction can make you have
a clear idea of Mobile
Payment．
Kind
regards.
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua
