Both Einstein and Dickens had mental illness. Now scientists have started to look at whether mental illness and genius are

27、 linked. Dr Adele Juda studied 5, 000 creative people in Germany. She found there were more people with mental illness in this group than in the general population. Poets had the highest rate （比例） of mental illness, followed by musicians, with lower numbers for painters and architects. Oth

28、er scientists did research which also showed a strong link between mental problems and creativity. But, it did nothing to explain it. Dr Ruth Richards of Harvard University made a breakthrough. Instead of studying creative people, she took a group of psychiatric （精神病的） patients and tested them

29、for creativity. The patients got much higher scores than a normal group. Also, the patients' close relatives were much more creative than the patients and a normal group. This suggests that the key to the link between creativity and mental illness is in our genes. But this is a problem. Accordin

30、g to Darwinism, harmful genes should be removed. Some scientists believe that evolution （進(jìn)化） has created a balance, where the madness of a few people leads to the development of the whole human race. Geniuses may be mad, bad or just difficult to understand, but their discoveries have improved t

31、he world we live in. It seems that a little creative madness is good for us all.  56. Which of the following statements is NOT true？  A. Among the 5, 000 creative people in Germany, more people suffer from mental diseases than the general population.  B. There is a strong link between

32、 mental problems and creativity.  C. Psychiatric patients make greater contributions than mon people.  D. The key to the link between creativity and mental illness is in our genes.  57. What is the writer's attitude toward madness？  A. Madness is harmful to the whole society.

33、  B. A little creative madness is good for us all.  C. All the talented people are mad. D. Only the people with mental illness have more creativity. 58.Based on the research of Dr Ruth Richards of Harvard University, we can conclude that _.  A. great artists and scientists o

34、ften suffer from mental problems  B. the patients' close relatives were much more creative than the patients and a normal group  C. psychiatric patients have more creativity than the average people  D. it is our genes that determine the link between creativity and mental illness&#

35、160; 59. According to Dr Adele Juda, which of the following has the lowest rate of mental illness？  A. Painters. B. Musicians. C. Poets. D. Bus drivers. 60. The underlined phrase "made a breakthrough" in the 4th paragraph means "_".  A. discover or find something n

36、ew and important  B. make a way through using force  C.（of the sun or moon ） appear from behind （clouds）  D. suddenly change （from a slower to a faster pace） BA Southampton University team found that people who were vegetarians by 30 had recorded five IQ points higher on average at th

37、e age of 10. Researchers said it could explain why people with a higher IQ were healthier as a vegetarian diet was linked to lower heart disease and obesity rates. The study of 8,179 people was reported in the British Medical Journal.Twenty years after the IQ tests were carried out in 1970, 366 of t

38、he participants said they were vegetarians although more than 100 reported eating either fish or chicken.Men who were vegetarians had an IQ score of 106, pared with 101 for non-vegetarians; while female vegetarians averaged 104, pared with 99 for non-vegetarians. There was no difference in the IQ sc

39、ores, between strict vegetarians and those who said they were vegetarians but reported eating fish or chicken.Researchers said the findings were partly related to better education and higher class, but it remained statistically significant after adjusting for these factors.Vegetarians were more like

40、ly to be female, to be of higher social class and to have higher academic or vocational qualifications than non-vegetarians. However, these differences were not reflected in their annual ine, which was similar to that of non-vegetarians.Lead researcher Catharine Gale said, “The findings that childre

41、n with greater intelligence are more likely to report being vegetarians as adults, together with the evidence on the potential benefits of a vegetarian diet on heart health, may help to explain why a higher IQ in childhood or adolescence is linked with a reduced risk of coronary heart disease in adu

42、lt life.But Dr Frankie Phillips of the British Dietetic Association said, “It is like the chicken and egg. Do people bee vegetarians because they have a very high IQ or is it just that they are clever enough to be more aware of health issues？”61Whats the result of the research mentioned in the text?

43、 A. Children with a healthier heart tend to have a higher IQ later in life. B. Children with a higher IQ are less likely to have heart disease later in life. C. Intelligent children tend to belong to higher social class later in life. D. Intelligent children are more likely to bee vegetarians later

44、in life.62It was found in the research that_.

45、ict vegetarians D. vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual ine than non-vegetarians63Catharine Gale talked about “being vegetarians” in a(n)_way. A. doubtfulB. favorableC. negativeD. objective64What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean? A. Intelligence is linked to not

46、just being a vegetarian but to many factors. B. The rate of getting heart disease is linked to your lifestyle. C. The link between a high IQ and being a vegetarian is still uncertain. D. The link between a healthy heart and diet remains to be proved.65What s the best title for the text? A. Get more

A high IQ is linked to being a vegetarianCThere has been a dramatic increase in the number of natural disasters over the past few years, and it is assumed that global warming and climate change could cause even more disaster

48、s in the future. Some of the world's leading cities are facing disasters like floods and heat waves.LondonLondon's flood defences are getting older. Since 1982, the Thames Barrier(水閘)has protected the city from the threat of flooding, but it was only designed to last until 2030 and close onc

49、e every two or three years. About 21 years later the barrier now closes five or six times a year and according to Environment Agency predictions, by 2050 the barrier will be closed on almost every tide if the problem is not addressed.There are 26 underground stations, 400 schools, 16 hospitals, an a

50、irport and 80 billion worth of property in London's flood risk area, so large scale flooding would be disastrous.ParisOver a six-week period in July and August xx, more than 11400mainly elderly peopledied in France from dehydration (脫水) and extremely high body temperature in a deadly heat wave.

51、Heat waves of similar intensity(強(qiáng)度)are expected every seven years by 2050, so what can be done to make sure such a disaster does not happen again?One solution is to have air conditioners installed in elderly care homes. But this is considered a short term solution, as the increase in demand for elec

52、tricity also increases carbon emissions.In Paris the local authorities are encouraging architects to design new types of buildings such as the building “Flower Tower”, which uses a covering of bamboo to act as a natural air conditioner.ShanghaiShanghai is the fastest growing city on Earth. It has a

53、population of 18 million and is only 4 meters above sea level. Sea levels are predicted to rise by 20 cm within the next century.An estimated 250,000 people move to Shanghai every year in search of work, placing extra demands on energy consumption. China relies heavily on coal fired power stations,

54、but these emissions increase temperatures and, in turn, warmer seas increase the risk of typhoons.66. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Big Disasters in the FutureB. Big Cities Facing Big Disasters C. The Increase of Natural Disasters D. Solutions to Natural Disasters67. What problem should be settled now in London? A. How to protect the city's property.B. Where to build its flood defences.C. How to improve the function of the old flood defences.D. How to use the Thames Barrier to protect the city68.
