A website.B. A magazine. C.A newspaper .D. A textbook.BCrossing your legs is an extremely common habit; most people dont even notice that theyre doing it when they sit down. While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason for this is that the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart and that crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You wont feel any immediate effects, but repeated, drawn-out increases in blood pressure can cause long-term health issues. So plan to sit for a long period of time? Dont keep your legs crossed.Crossing your legs at the knee can also cause pressure on the major nerve in your leg that passes just below your knee and along the outside of your leg, explains Richard Graves, a medical expert. This pressure can cause numbness and temporary paralysis(麻痹)of some of the muscles in your foot and leg, preventing you from being able to raise your ankle what we know as that pins and needles sensation. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until you feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.5. What can we learn about crossing ones legs?A. It is a very bad social habit.B. It is usually practiced deliberately.C. It can do harm to peoples health.D. It can make others feel uncomfortable.6. According to the study, sitting with your legs crossed can .A. affect your blood pressureB. resist gravity effectivelyC. lead to heart attacks easilyD. improve the function of legs7. In the third paragraph pins and needles probably means .A. slightly sharp painsB. being a little nervousC. serious muscle injuriesD. being highly flexible8. What is the main purpose of the text?A. To compare common habits.B. To give readers some advice.C. To evaluate effects of an experiment.D. To introduce research methods.CGetting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War II. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea; clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist (免疫學(xué)家), encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.9.The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because _.A. they believed disease could be spread in public bathsB. they thought bath houses were to dirty to stay inC. they considered bathing as the cause of skin diseaseD. they lived healthily in a dirty environment 10.Which of the following best describes Henry IVs attitude to bathing?A. Curious. B. Afraid. C. Approving. D. Uninterested.11.How does the passage mainly develop?A.By following the order of time. B. By making comparisons.C. By following the order of importance. D. By providing examples.12.What is the authors purpose in writing the passage?A. To stress the role of dirt. B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To present the change of views on dirt. D. To call attention to the danger of dirt.DWhen I flew into this country, the sides of the runway were littered with destroyed aircraft, large and small. On the seven-hour drive to our hospital, we passed old stone houses built into the sides of mountains with seemingly normal country life going on in the small villages, and I wished I were visiting this place as a tourist. But the conflict, which has been ongoing for almost two years, is impossible to ignore: we saw broken-down bridge, destroyed overpasses (天橋) and pieces of shrapnel (彈片) everywhere.You can hear shooting and air attacks throughout the day and night in the hospital. You very quickly get to know the direction of the shooting. I couldnt help but think about the people living in this situation for much longer than I have, trying to get on with their normal lives surrounded by conflict and fear. The markets are running, and there are people in the streets, but you never know when and where theres going to be an air attack. Its very sad to think about the fear that they are forced to live with.Our hospital is in a building originally intended as a hotel. Our focus is on children and reproductive health services.Ill never forget the first twins delivered at the hospital. They were born at just seven months to a young first-time mother, and were small enough to hold in the palm of my hand. Because they were so premature, the chance of their survival was low, but the staff finally saved their lives. And seven weeks later we discharged two very healthy twins, Ola and Osman. Their parents were so appreciative - it was a joy to see the satisfaction on their mothers and fathers faces as they left the hospital.Its amazing to see the direction of the local health staff. The war is affecting them and their families, yet they still show up for work, sometimes crossing frontlines to get there.13. What does the author want to tell us in the first paragraph?A. The country is heavily affected by war.B. The country isnt worth visiting for tourists.C. The villages are full of destroyed building.D. It took the author a long time to get to the country by air.14. What happened to the twins?A. Their mother died after their birth.B.They were born early. C. They were abandoned during the war.D. They grew up in the hospital.15.What is the authors attitude towards the local doctors and nurses?A. Ashamed B. Disappointed C. Admiring D.
