Importance of Children's Oral Health

　　February is National Children's Dental （牙齒的）Health Month，but in children good oral care is critical every day. The first comprehensive study on the nation's oral health，released recently by the Office of the U.S. Surgeon General，calls dental and oral diseases a “silent epidemic （流行�。�，” even in children. The report states that more than 51 million school hours are lost each year to dental-related illness. In fact，a recent study pointed to dental care as the most common unmet health need among American children.

　　To help counter this，the American Academy of Periodontology （牙周病學）（AAP）is launching an effort to educate children and parents about the prevention of dental diseases in children.

　　“This is important because oral problems can impact self-esteem for children and lead to problems of eating，speaking and attending to learning，” said Michael McGuire，president of the AAP.

　　Common dental problems seen in children are cavities （齲洞）and gingivitis （齦牙），which are found in the majority of U.S. children. “When these problems are not caught early and treated，they can develop into more severe problems and cause unnecessary suffering，” said McGuire “However，much of the time，oral problems are avoidable problems.”

　　In the Rio Grande Valley in Texas，a group of more than 120 dentists volunteers to deliver dental care to thousands of low-income children each year with its Mobile Dental Unit that travels from school to school.

　　“According to the Surgeon General's Report，about 37 percent of children have not had a dental visit before starting school，” said McGuire. “When children don't see dentists they miss the opportunity to have problems caught early before they develop into larger，more expensive problems to treat，and parents miss the opportunity to learn how to promote good oral habits in their children.”

Cancer

　　1 Cancer is a group of many related diseases that begin in cells，the body's basic building blocks. The body is made up of many types of cells Normally，cells grow and divide to produce more cells as they are needed to keep the body healthy. Sometimes，this orderly process goes wrong. New cells form when the body does not need them，and old cells do not die when they should The extra cells form a mass of tissue called a growth or tumor. Benign （~良性的）tumors are not cancer. They can often be removed and，in most cases，they do not come back Malignant （惡性的）tumors are cancer. Cells in malignant tumors are abnormal and divide without control or order.

　　2 Scientists have learned that cancer is caused by changes in genes that normally control the growth and death of cells. Certain lifestyle and environmental factors can change some normal genes into genes that allow the growth of cancer. Many gene changes that lead to cancer are the result of tobacco use，diet，exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun，or exposure to carcinogens （致癌物）in the workplace or in the environment. Some gene alterations are inherited.

　　3 Cancer treatment can include surgery，radiation therapy，chemotherapy （化療），hormone therapy，and biological therapy. The doctor may use one method or a combination of methods，depending on the type and location of the cancer，whether the disease has spread，the patient's age and general health，and other factors. Because treatment for cancer can also damage healthy cells and tissues，it often causes side effects. Patients and doctors generally discuss the treatment options，weighing the likely benefits of killing cancer cells and the risks of possible side effects.

　　4 Having cancer does not always mean having pain. Whether a patient has pain may depend on the type of cancer，the extent of the disease，and the patient's tolerance for pain. Most pain occurs when the cancer grows and presses against bones，organs，or nerves. Pain may also be a side effect of treatment. However，pain can generally be relieved or reduced with prescription medicines or over-the-counter drugs recommended by the doctor.

　　第4部分：閱讀理解（第31～45題，每題3分，共45分）

　　下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道題。請根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，為每題確定1個最佳選項。

第一篇 College Night Owls Have Lower Grades

　　College students who are morning people tend to get better grades than those who are night owls (晚睡的人), according to University of North Texas researchers.

　　They had 824 undergraduate students complete a health survey that included questions about sleep habits and daytime functioning, and found that students who are morning people had higher grade point averages (GPAs) than those who are night people.

　　"The finding that college students who are evening types have lower GPAs is a very important finding, sure to make its way into undergraduate psychology texts in the near future, along with the research showing that memory is improved by sleep," study co-author Daniel J. Taylor said in a prepared statement.

　　"Further, these results suggest that it might be possible to improve academic performance by using chronotherapy (時間療法) to help students retrain their biological clock to become more morning types," Taylor said.

　　The research was expected to be presented Monday at SLEEP, the annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies, in Baltimore.

　　In other findings expected to be heard at the meeting, University of Colorado researchers found a significant association .between insomnia (失眠) and a decline in college students' academic performance.

　　The study included 64 psychology, nursing and medical students, average age 27.4 years, who were divided into two groups - low GPAs and high GPAs.

　　Among those with low GPAs, 69.7 percent had trouble falling asleep, 53.1 percent experienced leg kicks or twitches (痙攣) at night, 65.6 percent reported waking at night and having trouble falling back to sleep, and 72.7 percent had difficulty concentrating during the day.

　　"In college students, the complaint of difficulty concentrating during the day continues to have a considerable impact on their ability to succeed in the classroom," study author Dr James F. Pagel said in a prepared statement. "This study showed that disordered sleep has significant harmful effects on a student's academic performance, including GPAs."

　　31 In the first study, students who stay up late A had lower GPAs.

　　A had lower GPAs.

　　B had higher GPAs.

　　C performed equally well in their studies

　　D had little difficulty concentrating during the day

　　32 Mr. Taylor believed that the finding of their study would soon

　　A be criticized by psychology students.

　　B be confirmed by psychological studies.

　　C be included in undergraduate psychology texts

　　D become the most popular psychology text

　　33 The passage indicates that chronotherapy can be used to help people to

　　A forget their troubles.

　　B improve their image.

　　C better their social relationships.

　　D readjust their biological clock.

　　34 In the second study, students with low GPAs did NOT complain of

　　A having trouble falling asleep.

　　B waking at night and having trouble falling back to sleep.

　　C having difficulty concentrating during the day.

　　D being kicked in the leg at night.

　　35 According to Dr. Pagel, the academic performance of a student wili be affected

　　A if he or she is not motivated.

　　B if he or she is troubled by disordered sleep.

　　C if he or she is a morning type.

　　D if he or she is a lazy person.

第二篇 Online Cancer Chat with a Safety Net

　　Cancer Research UK has launched an online chat forum for cancer patients to swap (交換) stories and share experiences on how to cope with such a devastating disease.

　　But Cancer Chat is a forum with a difference: it has an information safety net.

　　This means that a Cancer Research UK team will keep a watching brief to ensure that patients are not subjected to rogue (劣等的)"cancer cures, or scientifically unsound information.

　　Anyone can have access to the messages posted on Cancer Chat, but if people wish to post a message, they will need to register.

　　And Rebekah Gibbs, cancer patient and star of TV's Casualty, has pledged her support for the new project. "1 think Cancer Chat is a brilliant idea," she said. "1 have written a public :diary about whatl wentthrough with breast cancer and t have had such a heart-warming response from other people going through the-same thing.

　　"The idea of a Cancer Chat forum means you can share information about treatment and side effects and you can really open up about your feelings online in a way that can be difficult when talking to close friends and family. And with Cancer Research UK monitoring the forum, people can be reassured about the quality of information being exchanged."

　　Cancer Chat will also encourage its users to check out any cancer questions on its CancerHelp UK website, which is specially designed to give patients and their families 6,000 pages of up-to-date information that is easy to understand and explains a wide range of treatments for different types of cancer and gives details of clinical trials. There is also a UK database of cancer clinical trials.

　　The award-winning website attracts around one million visitors a month and Cancer Research UK hopes that some of these visitors will also want to post comments on the Cancer Chat forum.

　　For those who do not have access to computers and have questions about cancer, the charities team of cancer information nurses are available during office hours to talk over patients' concerns on the phone.

　　36 Cancer Chat is different from other forums chiefly in that

　　A it has the support of a famous actress.

　　B it provides a huge amount of data.

　　C it is a source of reliable information.

第三篇 Youth Emancipation in Spain

　　The Spanish Government is so worried about the number of young adults still living with their parents that it has decided to help them leave the nest.

　　Around 55 percent of people aged 18-34 in Spain still sleep in their parents' homes, says the latest report from the country's state-run Institute of Youth.

　　To coax (勸誘) young people from their homes, the Institute started a "Youth Emancipation (解放)" program this month. The program offers guidance in finding rooms and jobs.

　　Economists blame young people's family dependence on the precarious (不穩(wěn)定的) labor market and increasing housing prices. Housing prices have risen 17 percent a year since 2000.

　　Cultural reasons also contribute to the problem, say sociologists (社會學家). Family ties in south Europe - Italy, Portugal and Greece - are stronger than those in middle and north Europe, said Spanish sociologist Almudena Moreno Minguez in her report "The Late Emancipation of Spanish Youth: Key for Understanding".

　　"In general, young people in Spain firmly believe in the family as the main body around which their private life is organized" said Minguez.

　　In Spain - especially in the countryside, it is not uncommon to find entire groups of aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews (外甥/侄子) all living on the same street. They regularly get together for Sunday dinner.

　　Parents' tolerance is another factor. Spanish parents accept late-night partying and are wary of setting bedtime rules.

　　"A child can arrive home at whatever time he wants. If parents complain he'll put up a fight and call the father a fascist," said Jose Antonio Gomez Yanez, a sociologist at Carlos I11 University in Madrid.

　　Mothers' willingness to do children's household chores (家務(wù)) worsens the problem. Dionisio Masso, a 60-year-old in Madrid, has three children in their 20s. The eldest, 28, has a girlfriend and a job. But life with mum is good.

　　"His mum does the wash and cooks for him; in the end, he lives well," Masso said.

　　41 The "Youth Emancipation" program aims at helping young people

　　A fight for freedom.

　　B live in an independent way.

　　C fight against social injustice.

　　D get rid of family responsibilities.

　　42 It can be inferred from paragraph 5 that family ties are stronger in Portugal than in

　　A Finland.

　　B Greece.

　　C Spain.

　　D Italy.

　　43 Young people's family dependence can be attributed to all the following factors

　　EXCEPT

　　A parents' tolerance.

　　B housing problems.

　　C cultural traditions.

　　D unwillingness to get married

　　44 Which of the following statements is NOT true of Dionisio Masso?

　　A She is 60 years old.

　　B She has a boyfriend.

　　C She has three children

　　D She lives in Madrid

　　45 The phrase "wary of" in paragraph 8 could be best replaced by

　　A tired of.

　　B afraid of.

　　C cautious about.

　　D worried about.

Reduce Packaging

Trade standards officers also object to excessive packaging. （48）In response to a campaign by Britain's The Independent newspaper，leading supermarkets have pointed to various initiatives to win the public confidence. （49）

　　But campaigners said retailers and the government could learn much from anti-waste practices on the Continent.

Happy Marriage，Happy Heart

　　Happily married people have lower blood pressure （51）unhappily married people or singles，a Brigham Young University study says.

　　On the other （52），even having a supportive social network did not translate into a blood pressure benefit for singles or unhappily married people，according to the study.

　　“There seems to be some unique health benefits from marriage. It's not just being married （53）benefits health - what's really the most protective of health is having a （54）marriage，” study author Julianne Holt-Lunstad，a psychologist who specializes in relationships and health，said in a prepared statement.

　　The study included 204 married and 99 （55）adults who wore portable blood-pressure monitors for 24 hours. The （56）recorded blood pressure at random intervals and provided a total of about 72 readings.

　　“We wanted to capture participants' blood pressure doing whatever they normally （57）in everyday life. Getting one or two readings in a clinic Js not really （58）of the fluctuations （波動）that occur throughout the day” Holt-Lunstad said.

　　Overall，happily married people scored four points （59）on the blood pressure readings than single adults. The study also found that blood （60）among married people，especially those in happy marriages，（61）more during sleep than in single people.

　　“Research has shown that people whose blood pressure remains high throughout the night are at （62）greater risk of heart disease than people whose blood pressure drops，” Holt-Lunstad said.

　　The study was published in the March 20 （63）of the journal Annals （年刊）of Behavioral Medicine.

　　The study also found that unhappily married adults have higher blood pressure than both happily married （64）single adults.

　　Holt-Lunstad noted that married couples can encourage healthy habits in one （65），such as eating a healthy diet and having regular doctor visits. People in happy marriages also have a source of emotional support，she said.
