In the quest for better health, many people turn to doctors, self help books or herbal supplements. But they overlook a powerful weapon that could help them fight illness and depression, speed recovery, slow aging and prolong life: their friends.
Researchers are only now starting to pay attention to the importance of friendship and social networks in overall health. A 10-year Australian study found that older people with a large circle of friends were 22 percent less likely to die during the study period than those with fewer friends. A large 2007 study showed an increase of nearly 60 percent in the risk for obesity among people whose friends gained weight. And last year, Harvard researchers reported that strong social ties could promote brain health as we age.
“In general, the role of friendship in our lives isn’ t well appreciated,” said Rebecca G. Adams, a professor of sociology at the University of North Carolina, Greensboro. “There are a lot of things on families and marriage, but very little on friendship. It baffles me. Friendship has a bigger impact on our psychological well being than family relationships.”
Bella DePaulo, a visiting psychology professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara, whose work focuses on single people and friendships, notes that in many studies, friendship has an even greater effect on health than a spouse or a family member.
It isn’ t entirely clear why friendship has such a big effect. It may be because people with strong social ties also have better access to health services and care. Beyond that, however, friendship clearly has a profound psychological effect. People with strong friendships are less likely than others to get colds, perhaps because they have lower stress levels.
Last year, researchers studied 34 students at the University of Virginia, taking them to the base of a steep hill and fitting them with a weighted backpack. They were then asked to estimate the steepness of the hill. Some participants stood next to friends during the exercise, while others were alone.
The students who stood with friends gave lower estimates of the steepness of the hill. And the longer the friends had known each other, the less steep the hill appeared.
“People with stronger friendship networks feel like there is someone they can turn to,” said Karen A.Roberto, director of the center for gerontology (老年医学) at Virginia Tech.“ Friendship is an undervalued resource. The consistent message of these studies is that friends make your life better.”
1.What’ s the main idea of the passage?
A. People should make friends as many as possible.
B. Friendships do great good to human health.
C. People with friends have optimistic attitude.
D. Several studies have been done on friendships.
2.Which of the following is true?
A. People haven’t attached importance to friendships.
B. A friend can replace doctors and selfhelp books.
C. People with many friends may have higher stress levels.
D. People who have friends tend to be fat.
3.The author mentioned the study in the last three paragraphs to indicate that ________.
A. students should climb the steep hill with friends
B. it takes a long time to make friends
C. a friend in need is a friend indeed
D. people accompanied by friends remain optimistic in the face of difficulty
4.In Paragraph 2 the author aims to tell us ________.
A. friendship has a strong physical effect on people’s health
B. we cannot be too careful when making friends
C. older people are likely to have fewer friends
D. 60 percent of the people without friends will become fat when they get old
5.According to Karen A. Roberto, ________.
A. the effect of friendships is overvalued
B. studies on friendships make our life better
C. friends are more important than family members
D. friends can help each other when faced with problems

The National Geographic Channel has unearthed a time capsule (时光宝盒) buried by late Apple chairman and co-founder Steve Jobs thirty years ago.
The time capsule was buried in Aspen, Colorado, in 1983, shortly after Jobs attended the International Design Conference being held in that city. Organizers called the device the Aspen Time Tube and contributed items like Rubik's cubes(魔方) and some iconic music. Jobs added his own items to the capsule, including the " Lisa" ( also known as an "Apple" ) mouse" he used for his presentation at the conference.
Younger readers may not recognize the name but the Lisa Apple mouse was one of the first commercial mice released to consumers. The mouse was specially designed for the Apple Lisa computer. It's also the first personal computer to offer users a graphical user interface(图形用户界面)
Initially, the plan was to dig up the time capsule in the year2000, but organizers forgot its exact location. Recently, they brought in researchers working with the National Geographic Channel show Diggers to find the device. Eventually they came across the 13-foot-long, 1.5-foot-diameter tube. Inside they found a lot of 1980s artifacts(人工制品)that are still being catalogued.
“When the end came off, literally things just poured out.” noted Diggers host Tim Saylor "There must be literally thousands of things in there.”
“They had the foresight to put a bunch of stuff in plastic bags." Saylor said. “I could see at least a dozen plastic bags and other items. But I know for sure there got to the photographs in there. People had hand-written things on the back of the photographs, so there will be some really interesting things inside.”
Among the artifacts researchers expect to discover inside: a Steve Jobs speech in which the Apple visionary outlines his predictions for future technologies. We should know more about the researchers, discoveries once the Diggers program airs this fall.
1.Which of the following is true about the Lisa mouse?
A. The mouse was the first commercial one for consumers.
B. The mouse was created only for the Apple Lisa computer.
C. The mouse was buried in Aspen, Colorado for two decades.
D. The mouse was invented after the International Design Conference.
2.Why wasn't the time capsule dug up in 2000?
A. Because it was not the time set by Steve Jobs.
B. Because it could not be accurately located.
C. Because organizers forgot its precise shape.
D. Because the local government didn't approve.
3.From the passage we can infer that_______.
A. there were some special photographs found-inside the time capsule
B. a Steve Jobs speech with future predictions was found inside the cap
C. Steve Jobs predictions for future technologies have come true
D. more about the capsule will be discovered in the Diggers program
4.The best title for the passage might be _______.
A. The "Lost" Steve Jobs Time Capsule
B. The Mystery of Steve Jobs Speech Solved
C. Steve Jobs' 1983 Time Capsule Recovered
D. Co-founder & Former Apple CEO Steve Jobs

A time capsule buried by Apple founder Steve Jobs 30 years ago has been discovered after its location was long forgotten.
In 1983, the young tech innovator was attending a conference in Aspen when he and the group decided to bury as a trick during a design convention. The tube that was filled with an eclectic collection of goods- ranging from the then-new apple mouse to a six-pack of beer for the people who discovered the time capsule- was meant to be dug up 20 years later. There was a problem with that plan, however, as everyone involved forgot where it was buried.
The final discovery happened at the hands of the crew from the National Geographic Channel’s reality show called Diggers. The discovery was well documented and is surely going to be featured on an upcoming episode, and even the experts had problems finding this particular treasure. CNET reports that in spite of their preparations and clear idea of where the 13-foot-long tube was, it still took them two hours to dig it up using heavy machinery.
To anyone removed from the tech industry, the accomplishment in finding the tube appears to be the biggest accomplishment. To others, the most interesting object would likely be the Lisa Mouse placed in the tube by the hands of a then-28-year-old Jobs. The Lisa Mouse, which Jobs named after his daughter, was one of the first commercial computer mice soled publicly, making it a rarity at the time.
The Aspen Historical Society is going to help the show creators make a list of the tube’s contents-but no word yet whether or not the Diggers cracked open one of the six bottles of Boddington’s Ale that was left inside for the people who found the tube.
1.Why didn’t people dig up the tube as planned?
A. Because it was difficult to dig it up.
B. Because the tube was too heavy.
C. Because everyone involved forgot where it was buried.
D. Because Steve Jobs died.
2.What is the meaning of the word "eclectic" in paragraph 2?
A. electronic B. original
C. various D. extreme
3.Who discovered the time capsule?
A. Steve Jobs B. the crew from Diggers
C. Lisa D. the experts
4.What is the best title of this passage?
A. A time capsule was buried by Apple founder Steve Jobs.
B. A time capsule has been discovered after its location was long forgotten.
C. the accomplishment in finding a tube.
D. the origin of Lisa Mouse.

The very first capsule hotel to be opened in Shanghai has attracted many budget travelers with its prices, even though it is not fully operational yet.
The hotel consists of 68 "capsules", each 1.1-meters high, 1.1-meters wide and 2.2-meters long. The basic rate is 28 Yuan ($4.22) per person, plus an additional 4 Yuan an hour. The hotel also offers a package of 68 Yuan for 10 hours and 88 Yuan for 24 hours.
All of the capsules are imported from Japan where capsule hotels originated,and each is equipped with independent sockets, clocks, lights, TV and wireless Internet service. The hotel also has a public lavatory(洗手间),shower room, smoking room and shared guest room.
"This is a huge bargain compared with other budget hotels in Shanghai," said Ta Zan, the owner of the hotel. Ta used to stay at capsule hotels in Tokyo during his undergraduate years and worked at a capsule hotel while he was doing his MBA in Japan in 2005, so he knows how they work and how to make guests feel comfortable.
He based the hotel on capsule hotels in Japan but he has made some special changes based on Chinese guests' habits. "In Japan capsule hotels are usually equipped with bathtubs, but in China people are more willing to take a shower, so we have the shower room," he said. He has also separated the capsules into three snoring (打鼾的) zones so that guests who often snore won't disturb others. Like most of capsule hotels in Japan, the one in Shanghai is for men only.
But the idea of staying in such a compact space is not appealing to everyone. "I feel the idea is like putting a person in a coffin (棺材), and the price is also not that appealing. A bed at a youth hostel in Shanghai costs about 60 Yuan per night," said Wang Lei, a student from Beijing.
1.The first capsule hotels in the world appeared in ________.
A. Shanghai B. Japan C. Beijing D. America
2.If you stay in the capsule hotel in Shanghai for 8 hours, you will have to pay________yuan.
A. 28 B. 60 C.68 D.88
3.What does the underlined word "compact" mean?
A. Dear B. Cheap. C. Close. D. Clean.
4.The capsule hotel in Shanghai differs from those in Japan in that________.
A. it serves men as well as women
B. its capsule is much larger
C. it has a shower room
D. it has no snoring zones
5.We can know from the passage that________ .
A. everybody considers the capsule hotel a nice place to stay
B. all the capsules of the hotel were made in China
C. each capsule of the hotel has a private lavatory
D. no guest has ever stayed in the capsule hotel in Shanghai
