Passage Two
Generations of Americans have been brought up to
believe that a good breakfast is essential to one's life. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have been
told,told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip. But for many people, the thought of food as the first thing in the morning is never a pleasure So despite all the efforts,they still take no breakfast.
Between 1977 1983, the latest year for which figures could be obtained, the number of people who didn't have breakfast increased by 33%from 8.8 million to 11.7 million--according to the Chicago-based Market Research Corporation of America. For those who dislike eating breakfast, however, there is some good news.
Several studies in the last few years have shown
that,for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. "Going without breakfast does
not affect work,"said Arnold E.Bender, former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, "nor does giving people breakfast improve work. " Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better work is surprisingly inadequate(不充分) ,most of the recent work involves children, not adults. "The literature," says one researcher, Dr. Earnest Polite at the University of Texas, "is poor."
40. Which of these is mentioned in the second paragraph?
A. The number of the people who skip breakfast has
increased.
B. Many people fill their cars with gasoline in the
morning.
C.8.8 million people got involved in a study on
eating habits.
D. A company carried out a research in 1983.
答案:A
41. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined part?
A. Having breakfast does not improve work, either.
B. Giving people breakfast improves work.
C. Going without breakfast can improve work, too.
D. Having breakfast does improve work.
答案:A
42. What does the word "literature" in the last sentence
refer to?

B. Any printed materials.
C. Written works on a subject.
D. Stories, poems plays.
答案:C

B. Eating breakfast is absolutely necessary.

is a must.

Passage Three
When you stretch out in the sun you can do one
of the three things: you can use no sun tan oil, an
ordinary sun tan oil; or Bergasol.
If you don't use any sun tan oil when you're in
the sun, you will burn surprisingly quickly. If you use
an ordinary sun tan oil, you will protect your skin to a lesser or greater degree.How much protection depends on the "protection-factor number" on the bottle. Some oils block out so many of the sun's rays you can stay in the sun all day without burning but you won't go very brown,either.
Bergasol will protect your skin like an ordinary
sun tan oil. It also has a tan accelerator that speeds up the rate at which the sun activates the skin cells that produce melanin(黑色素). It is melanin that gives the skin its brown colour. Bergasol enables you to go
brown faster,am as the days pass the difference will become more obvious.Unfortunately, this special formulation isn't Cheap to prepare.So Bergasol is rather more expensive than ordinary sun tan oil. However, the price looks more attractive as you do.
Bergasoi
It makes you go brown faster
Protection Many people imagine that "cover-up" means you don't get a tan. Nothing to show for your holiday.
Not so. With "cover-up", you can get brown if
you want to. The point of "cover-up" is to protect
your skin from the harmful rays of the sun which,
according to the experts ,make your skin look older.
