Our school has set up a group of “How to deal with the pollution of the river”, and I am in the group. Here is some of my advice on how to carry out the activity.

First, we should do some research to find out why there is so much pollution. We can ask our teachers and some experts for help. We can also find some information on the Internet.

Second, we should work out a report on the serious pollution of the river and hand it to the government. Also, we can show the citizens(市民) our opinions on how to deal with the pollution.

Third, we should set up some small groups to collect the waste in the river during the holidays. We should try to plant trees along the river and put up some posters to tell people not to pollute our environment so that more people can take part in saving the earth actively.

After all these steps, I think the pollution of the river will be less. And we'll learn a lot from these activities at the same time.

New research at Yale University has provided the strongest evidence that humans are evolving（进化）- and suggests that women of the future will be shorter, heavier, and healthier, and will have children for longer.

As medicine has allowed people who would previously have died young to live to childbearing age and beyond, many have assumed that natural selection no longer works on our species. But Prof Stephen Stearns, the evolutionary biologist at Yale University behind the study, says: "That's just plain false." While survival to reproductive age（生育年龄） is no longer such a barrier（障碍） for humans, other evolutionary pressures – including sexual selection and reproductive fitness – are still working away in full force. If the trends the research detected are representative and continue for another 10 generations, Prof Stearns says that the average woman in 2409AD will be 2cm shorter and 1kg  heavier, will bear her first child five months earlier.

Prof Stearns and his team studied the medical histories of 14,000 residents of the Massachusetts town of Framingham, using medical data from a study going back to 1948 and spanning three generations. It looked at 2,238 women past reproductive age – so that they had had all the children they were going to – and tested their height, weight, cholesterol（胆固醇）, blood pressure, and other traits, to see if there was a correlation with the number of children they had borne. It found that shorter, heavier women had more children than lighter, taller ones. Women with lower blood pressure and cholesterol were also more likely to have large families. Women who gave birth early or had a late menopause were likely to have more children as well. More importantly, however, these traits were then passed on to their daughters, who also, on average, had more children.

The study has not determined why these factors are linked to reproductive success, but it is likely that they indicate genetic, rather than environmental, effects. Prof Stearns’ team controlled for other factors, including social and cultural change.

Research suggesting humans are evolving has been carried out before, but this is believed to be the first that directly compares reproductive success of individuals with physiological changes（生理变化）.

72. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Natural selection no longer works on our species, especially the woman.

B. Woman of the future will be shorter, heavier, and healthier, and will have children for longer

C. Some genetic, rather than environmental effects has more influence on the evolvement of the humans.

D. Evolutionary pressures are still working in full force on the evolvement of the humans.

73. Which of the following statements is False about the women’s evolvement according to the research?

A. women will shorter

B. women will be fatter

C. The time for the women to have baby will be longer

D. women will be cleverer

74. Which factor is the most promising related to reproductive success?

A. Genetic        B. Social         C. Environmental        D. Cultural

75. This passage may most likely be taken from           .

A. a geography magazine

B. a medicine and technology research journal

C. a daily newspaper

D. an entertainment book

Laurie Santos greeted her Yale University students with slips of paper that explained: No class today.

It was mid-semester (学期). With exams and papers coming, everyone was exhausted and stressed. There was one rule: They couldn’t use the one hour and a quarter of unexpected free time to study, and they had to just enjoy it. Nine students hugged her. Two burst into tears.

Santos, a professor of psychology, had planned to give a lecture about what researchers have learned about how important time is to happiness, but she created a special class on the psychology of living a joyful, meaningful life and she wanted the lessons to stick. All semester, she explained why we think the way we do. Then, she challenged students to use that knowledge to change their own lives.

On that spring afternoon, nearly a quarter of the undergraduate students were enjoying an unexpected break at the same time. No, not just enjoying it-really loving the gift they had been given. Skyler Robinson, a sophomore, had been confused for a moment by all the possibilities it opened up. He felt very, very happy. Then, he took a nap. “That nap,” he said, “was fantastic.”

Santos designed this class after she realized, as the head of a residential college at Yale, that many students were stressed out and unhappy, struggling through long days that seemed to her far more crushing (惨重的) and joyless than her own college years.

Santos said students were most skeptical of the idea that good grades aren’t essential to happiness. And when she joked she was going to teach them that by giving everyone “D”, she was flooded with calls from frightened students and parents. Santos told them she was creating a center for the good life at the college she leads at Yale. As for the good life, she told them they already know how to live it-they just have to practice and put in hard work.

So many students have told her the class changed their lives. “If you’re really grateful, show me that.” she told them. “Change the culture.”

1.What did Santos ask her Yale students to do that day?

A.Study for the coming exams.

B.Enjoy the free time in her class.

C.Apply their way of thinking to life.

D.Realize the importance of time.

2.What does Santos think of her Yale students?

A.They care nothing about grades but happiness.

B.They are stressed into a hopeless generation.

C.They are living a joyful and meaningful life.

D.They suffer great pressure from learning.

3.How was Santos’ special class that day?

A.Popular. B.Discouraging.

C.Humorous. D.dull

4.What is the best title for the text?

A.Yale has a special course about social life.

B.Yale teaches its students about good grades.

C.Yale has a course all about living happily.

D.Yale helps its students reduce learning pressure.
