Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed. When a person does a certain thing again, he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly, then a habit is formed. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to get rid of. It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits. Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live. Older persons also form bad habits lasting as long as they live, and sometimes become ruined by them.
There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help. Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and so on.
Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on. These are all easily formed habits. Unluckily older persons often form habits which could have been avoided.
We should keep away from all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will be good for ourselves and others.
1.____ are formed litle by little.
A. Good habits
B. Bad habits
C. Both good habits and bad habits
D. Either good habits or bad habits
2.The underlined word "them" in the first paragraph refers to "____"
A. bad habits B. good habits C. bad children D. other persons
3.Generally speaking, it's difficult for one _____ and easy for them _____ which should be avoided.
A. to form bad habits; to form good habits
B. to form good habits; to form bad habits
C. to form good habits; to get rid of had habits
D. to get rid of bad habits: to form good habits
4.Why should we pay much attention to the formation of habits?
A. Because a man can never get rid of a habit.
B. Because we are forced to do them again and again.
C. Because habits are of great help to every one of us at present.
D. Because it's hard and sometimes even impossible to throw away bad habits.
5.According to the passage, early rising _____.
A. has something to do with success
B. is an easily formed habit

Like every other Olympics, the London 2012 Olympics will depend upon thousands of volunteers to help with the smooth running of the event. To show the importance of the role, London 2012 volunteers are to be called ‘Game Makers’. Lord Coe has said recently: “London 2012 is relying on brilliant Game Makers to help us create a great Olympic and Paralympic Games. ”
London 2012 Olympics volunteers will provide the face of London 2012, working behind the scenes and making sure the games are as well organized, efficient and, most importantly, as enjoyable as possible.
Despite the hard-work and often unsociable hours required of volunteers, applications to be considered as a Game Maker were unprecedented（空前的） with all the 70, 000 available positions applied within days. But, for those still interested in helping out during 2012 and being in the middle of the action, there are still a lot of opportunities available.
If you were one of those who missed out on the chance of becoming London 2012 volunteers, you can now apply to be one of the 8, 000 London Ambassadors（大使）. This important role involves greeting fans from all over the world, welcoming them to the fantastic capital city of London and providing a friendly face as well as help, advice and a good old traditional warm British welcome. The view of London most visitors take away with them after the 2012 Olympics will mostly be down to the volunteers and ambassadors, so these roles play a very important part in the process of making the UK a great place to travel to.
Becoming a London Ambassador is a brilliant way to be involved with the London 2012 volunteers scheme and become a part of what should be an historic summer.
1.Why are London 2012 volunteers called “Game Makers”?
A. They’ll decide whether the London 2012 Olympics are a success.
B. They play an important role in the London 2012 Olympics.
C. The London 2012 Olympics won’t be organized without them.
D. They will work hard and effectively.

A. be the responsibility of
B. be under the control of
C. be in harmony with
D. be in charge of
3.What’s the purpose of the passage?
A. To appeal to more volunteers.

C. To show the importance of volunteers.
D. To guide how to spend the historic summer.

It’s parents’ worst nightmare. Their child doesn’t come home one evening and is missing for several days.
When a 14-year-old boy from Atlanta, Georgia disappeared earlier this year, his mother turned to her Smartphone for clues using an app（应用程序） called Family Tracker that helped track his location.
“You can see where your loved ones are without having to call or bother them. ”said Roberto Franceschetti of LogSat, the creators of the Family Tracker, which has more than 100,000 users and is available worldwide.
Parents can track the location of their child on a map, send messages, and even sound an alarm on the phone in a long distance.
“We have an option for the sender to make a very unpleasant, noisy sound. It’s a loud alarm and we repeat that sound every two minutes until the person picks it up, ”he said.
Parents don’t need to own a Smartphone to track their children. The service is also accessible through the web, as long as the phone that is being tracked is running the app.
Family Tracker has an additional service that keeps records of all data from the app for a two-week period, which the company calls GPS breadcrumbs.
“With a subscription（预定）, we keep all the locations where people have been on our servers. You can see where your kid has been for the past two weeks. You can find out where someone was at a certain time or when that person was at a specific place, ”Franceschetti explained.
“When somebody gets abducted（劫持）, usually whoever does this throws the phone away or takes the battery out. We were hoping that our app would at least provide information on where the person was abducted or where they had been in the past. ”
But will these types of apps let out personal secrets?
“The advantages are huge compared to the disadvantages. Let’s not forget that the person always has to give initial permission—no one can be tracked unless they allow someone to do it. ”said Franceschetti.
1.According to the passage, all of the following about “Family Tracker” are true EXCEPT that __________.
A. it can help parents know where their children are
B. all parents don’t need to own a Smartphone to track children
C. parents can use all the services of the app for free
D. it has little to do with letting out personal secrets
2.What can we infer from the passage?
A. The app will enjoy a great popularity in the future.
B. The loss of children won’t be a nightmare for parents any more.
C. The app will repeat the loud alarm continuously whenever parents track children.
D. The app can keep records of information for more than half a month.
3.Which belong to the functions of the new app?
a. track location b. detect criminals c. send messages
d. protect privacy e. send remote alarm f. record information
A. a, b, c, e B. a, c, e, f C. a, c, d, e D. a, d, e, f

“Old wives’ tales” are beliefs passed from one generation to another. For example, most of us remember our parents’ telling us to eat more of certain foods or not to do certain things. Is there any truth in these teachings? Some of them agree with present medical thinking, but others have not passed the test of time.
Did your mother ever tell you to eat your carrots because they are good for your eyes? Scientists now report that eating carrots can help prevent a serious eye disease called macular degeneration. Eating just one carrot a day can reduce the possibility of getting this disease by 40%. Garlic(蒜) is good for you, too. It can kill the type of virus that causes colds.
Unfortunately, not all of Mom’s advice passed the test of medical studies. For example, generations of children have been told not to go swimming within an hour after eating. But research suggests that there is no danger in doing so. Do sweets cause tooth problems? Well, yes and no. Sticky sweets made with grains tend to cause more problems than sweets made with simple sugars.
Even though science can tell us that some of our traditional beliefs don’t hold water, there is still a lot of truth in the old wives’ tales. After all, much of this knowledge has been accumulated(积累) from thousands of years of experience in family health care. We should respect this body of knowledge even as we search for clear scientific support to prove it true or false.
1.The author develops the third paragraph mainly ________.
A. by cause and effect B. by order in space
C. by examples D. by order in time
2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A. Eating garlic is good for our eyes.
B. Carrots prevent people from catching colds.
C. Swimming after a meal is dangerous.
D. Sticky sweets are damaging to our teeth.
3.What is the author’s attitude toward “old wives’ tales” in the text?
A. Objective. B. Subjective. C. Dissatisfied. D. Curious.
4.The phrase “hold water” in the last paragraph most probably means “________.”
A. to be valuable B. to be believable
C. to be admirable D. to be suitable
