An Israeli law banning too-skinny models went into effect with the start of 2013. The law, approved last March in Israel, requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index(BMI)of at least 18. 5 for three months before a fashion show. That means a woman who is 5’8”tall can weigh no less than 119 pounds.
“This law is another step in the war against eating disorders, ”said physician Adatto. “Underweight models, ”he explained, “can no longer serve as role models for innocent young people who copy their false image of being skinny. ”
But some critics in this country say it is misguided, focusing on weight instead of health. They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry. “I think it’s an approach that isn’t going to work, ”said eating disorder expert Susan Ice, who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environment for models.
But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an aspiring model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized. He said, “I realized that only legislation(立法)can change the situation. There was no time to waste; so many girls were dieting to death. ”
However, the efforts to regulate model’s weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring weight and health.
Still, folks including Ice say there’s no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with. “Certainly I don’t believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders, but it makes it harder, ”she says. “It’s a difficult recovery environment, worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal. ”

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C、D)中,選出最佳選項。
Have you ever felt somebody else’s pain? You’re not alone, with new research showing some people do have a physical reaction to others’ injuries.
British researchers used brain-imaging technology (影像工程學(xué)) to show that people who say they feel the pain of others have heightened activity in pain- sensing brain regions when they see someone else being hurt. For the study, the researchers exposed 108 college students to images of painful situation, ranging from athletes suffering sports injuries to patients receiving an injection. Nearly a third said that, for at least one image, they not only had an emotional reaction, but also felt pain in the same site as the injury in the image.
The researchers found that while viewing the painful images, both people who said they felt pain and those who did not showed activity in the emotional centers of the brain. But those who felt pain showed greater activity in pain-related brain regions compared with the others.
“Patients with functional pain experience pain in the absence of an obvious disease or injury to explain their pain. This confirms that at least some people have an actual physical reaction when observing others being injured or expressing pain,” Dr. Stuart Derbyshire of the University of Birmingham, one of the researchers, told reporters.
He noted that the people reported feeling pain also tended to say that they avoided horror movies and disturbing images on the news – so as to avoid being in pain.
The findings were published in the December issue of the journal Pain.
12. The underlined words “a third” probably refer to ___ .
A. sportsmen experiencing pain B. the 36 students involved in the study
C. patients receiving an injection D. the 108 students exposed to the images
13. The researchers observed the students’ emotional activity in their ___ .
A. brain regions B. eye regions C. faces D. voices
14. If you are allergic to pain, you’d better get away from ___ .
A. reading journals B. seeing scary movies
C. listening to the news D. going to the concert
15. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Emotional Centers of Your Brain B. You Can Use Brain-imaging Technology
C. You Can Feel Others’ Pain D. Painful Images to the Researchers

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C、D)中,選出最佳選項。
A group of foreign residents married to Japanese talked about their children’s names.
Nicole Despres
Students services manager, 40 (American)
We have no intention to live outside Japan so it made sense for the kids to take my Japanese husband’s family name. However, we did want to have a Western name too, so all three of them now have both a Western and Japanese name. We agreed there would be no strange names, spelling or unusual kanji(Chinese characters in the Japanese language). All names had to be easy to say and familiar in both Japanese and English.
John McCracken
Company general manager, 27(American)
My son’s name is Aiden. In part because my wife and I met in university and as she was studying Irish history and I have some links to Scotland and Ireland, I wanted a unique Gaelic(蓋爾族的)name. We settled for Aiden as we found kanji that can be used in Japan that means “l(fā)egendary hero”
Paula Murakami
College women’s Association of Japan, 53(American)
My husband was very excited about choosing names, so I decided to let him choose. He wanted their first names to be Japanese and camp up with names that included the kanji character in his own name. Our boys, Hiroki and Kenta, never had any problems while living on the U.S. West Coast with Japanese names, and I think both as children and as adults, they love their names.
Jeff Ruiz
Recording engineer, 42(Mexican)
My son’s name is Lenny. My wife chose it together with me as we were looking for a name that works in both worlds — mine in Mexico, and hers in Japan — and the name Lenny is common everywhere. In Japanese we write the name in?katakana?as that is easy for Japanese people who seem to like names in two or three characters.

A. Nicole and her husband had an agreement on how to name the children.
B. Jeff will remain in Japan as his wife is not used to Mexican life.

25. Which of the following does the underlined word “katakana” mean?
A. A Japanese system of grammar.
B. A way of writing the Japanese language.
C. A Japanese word which means “name”.
D. A name popular with Japanese people.
26. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Nicole and her Japanese husband have a daughter and two sons.
B. Paula has little say in making a decision at home.
C. John’s wife is Irish and the couple have only one child.
D. Lenny is a name familiar to Japanese when written the Japanese way.
27. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Is a western name better than a Japanese name?
B. Why does your child have two names?
C. How do you choose your child’s name?
D. Do you settle differences in naming your child?

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A.B.C和D項中,選出最佳選項。
A 33-year-old financial analyst in California recently quit his job to devote himself to an unpaid job teaching math on the Internet, and his lessons are reaching almost 100,000 people a month. Salman Khan’s voice is heard every day on the net --- by tens of thousands of students around the world who are hungry for help learning math. He has posted 1,200 lessons on YouTube ... lessons that appear on an electronic blackboard, which range from basic addition to advanced mathematics for science and finance. And they are free.
Khan lives in Silicon Valley, with his wife, a doctor, and their new baby. He got the idea for his “Khan Academy” four years ago, when he taught a young cousin how to convert kilograms to grams. With Khan’s help, the cousin got good at math, and Khan began a new career.
Now, Khan records his lessons himself, but he never goes on camera. “It feels like my voice in their head. You’re looking at it and it feels like someone’s over your shoulder talking in your ear, as opposed to someone at the blackboard, which is distant from you,” he said.
When Springfield High School in Palo Alto, California invited Khan to speak in person --- he immediately connected to the students there.
The idea of short lessons that can be played over and over again attracted high school senior Bridget Meaney. She says she had trouble with math in the seventh grade. “I think the teachers are good, but they can’t teach at a speed that’s perfect for everyone,” she said. “I like the idea of learning something in class but then going back and pressing pause or rewind and actually getting a deeper understanding of it.”
Originally, Khan kept his lessons short because of YouTube restrictions. Now, he thinks short is better. “Education researchers?now tell me that 10 minutes is how long someone can have a high level of concentration. And anything beyond that and your brain switches off,” he said.
For Khan, teaching math, science, and finance is just the beginning. He says he’s ready to expand his YouTube site to include other subjects as well.
6. What gave Khan the idea of teaching math online?
A. His success in helping his cousin learn math.
B. His discovery that many students found learning math difficult.
C. A suggestion made to him at a local high school.
D. His interest in Internet teaching.
7. Why does Khan never go on camera?
A. He’s too shy to show his face on camera.
B. It’s restricted by YouTube for education videos.
C. He wants to keep distance from the viewers.
D. He wants to create a more relaxed learning atmosphere.
8. From the passage, we know that ________.
A. Khan travels to many schools to promote his lessons
B. Khan plans to include more subjects in the future
C. Khan gives live math lessons every day for free
D. Khan set up the Khan Academy with his wife
9. Why does Bridget Meaney like Khan’s lessons?
A. Khan teaches seventh grade math better than her teacher.
B. The lessons can be watched repeatedly until fully understood.
C. She can perfectly follow the pace of Khan’s teaching.
D. She cannot concentrate when learning in class.
10. What does Khan mean by “short is better” in the 6th paragraph?
A. Keeping the lessons short can ensure better concentration.
B. YouTube recommends short lessons for its site.
C. Short lessons encourage students to return to the website.
D. Students enjoy short mathematics lessons more.

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A.B.C和D項中,選出最佳選項。
The drug store was closing for the night and Alfred Higgins was about to go home when his new boss approached him.
“Empty your pockets please, Alfred,” Sam Carr demanded in a firm voice.
Alfred pretended to be shocked but he knew he’d been caught. From his coat he withdrew a make-up kit, a lipstick and two tubes of toothpaste.
“I’m disappointed in you, Alfred!” said the little gray-haired man.
“Sorry, sir. Please forgive me. It’s the first time I’ve ever done such a thing,” Alfred lied, hoping to gain the old man’s sympathy.
Mr Carr’s brow furrowed as he reached for the phone, “Do you take me for a fool? Let’s see what the police have to say. But first I’ll call your mother and let her know her son is heading to jail.”
“Do whatever you want,” Alfred shot back, trying to sound big. But deep down he felt like a child. He imagined his mother rushing in, eyes burning with anger, maybe in tears. Yet he wanted her to come quickly before Mr. Carr called the police.
Mr. Carr was surprised when Mrs Higgins finally arrived. She was very calm, quiet and friendly. “Is Alfred in trouble?” she asked.
“He’s been stealing from the store,” the old man coolly replied.
Mrs. Higgins put out her hand and touched Mr. Carr’s arm with great gentleness as if she knew just how he felt. She spoke as if she did not want to cause him any more trouble. “What do you want to do, Mr. Carr?”
The woman’s calm and gentle manner disarmed the once-angry store-owner. “I was going to get a cop. But I don’t want to be cruel. Tell your son not to come back here again, and I’ll let it go.” Then he warmly shook Mrs. Higgins’s hand.
Mrs. Higgins thanked the old man for his kindness, then mother and son left. They walked along the street in silence. When they arrived home his mother simply said, “Go to bed, you fool.”
In his bedroom, Alfred heard his mother in the kitchen. He felt no shame, only pride in his mother’s actions. “She was smooth!” he thought. He went to the kitchen to tell her how great she was, but was shocked by what he saw.
His mother’s face looked frightened, broken. Not the cool, bright face he saw earlier. Her lips moved nervously. She looked very old. There were tears in her eyes.
This picture of his mother made him want to cry. He felt his youth ending. He saw all the troubles he brought her and the deep lines of worry in her grey face. It seemed to him that this was the first time he had ever really seen his mother.
16. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. It was the first time Alfred had stolen anything.
B. Alfred tried to sound big to hide his fear.
C. Mr. Carr set a trap to catch Alfred stealing.
D. Mr. Carr had planned to forgive Alfred from the beginning.
17. What does the underlined word “disarmed” probably mean?
A. annoyed B. made less angry
C. convinced D. got over
18. What was the mother’s attitude toward Alfred?
A. She felt disappointed with him. B. She was very strict with him.
C. She was supportive of him. D. She was afraid of him.
19. What impressed Alfred most about his mother at the drugstore was ________.
A. how angry she was B. that she didn’t cry
C. that she was able to save him D. how effectively she handled Mr. Carr
20. From the last paragraph, we know that Alfred ________.

C. wanted his mother to be happy D. felt guilty and regretful for his deed
