The disease was pellagra（糙皮病）.Goldberger traveled to the state of Miss
10、issippi where many people suffered from pellagra. He studied the victims and their families. Most of the people lived a hard life. The doctor came to believe that the disease didnt pass on from one to another, but was instead related to food. He received permission from the state governor to test th
11、is idea at a prison. Prisoners were offered pardons if they took part. One group of prisoners received their usual foods, mostly com products. A second group ate meat, fresh vegetables and drank milk. Members of the first group developed pellagra. The second group did not.But some medical researcher
12、s refused to accept Goldbergers idea. For the South, pellagra was more than simply a medical problem. There were other things, including Southern pride.So Goldberger had himself injected（注射）with blood from a person with pellagra. He also took liquid from the nose and throat of a pellagra patient and
13、 put them into his own nose and throat. He even swallowed pills that contained skin from pellagra patients. An assistant also took part in the experiments. So did Goldbergers wife.

16、and enthusiastic.CThere is a popular saying in the English language; “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” Well, that is not true. Unkind words, name-calling or even the so-oalled “the silent treatment” can hurt children as much as being physically hit, sometimes even
17、 more so.A recent study of middle school children showed that verbal（言语的）abuse by other children can harm development in the brain. The study was a project of researchers at Harvard Medical School in Massachusetts. Researcher Martin Teicher and his team studied young adults, aged 18 to 25. These you
18、ng men and women had not ever been treated in a cruel or violent way by their parents. The researchers asked the young people to rate their childhood exposure to verbal abuse from both parents and other children. Then the researchers performed imaging tests on the brains of the subjects. The images
19、showed that the people who reported suffering verbal abuse from peers in middle school had underdeveloped connections between the left and right side of the brain. The two sides of the brain are connected by a large bundle of connecting fibers called the corpus callosum. This was the area that was u
20、nderdeveloped.The middle school years are a time when these brain connections are developing. So, unkind, hurtful comments from children or adults during this period have the greatest effect.

Words are worse than sticks and stones.DThe media has negative effects on the physical and psychological well-being of society. People spending hours in front of a tele
25、vision or surfing the Internet experience eye problems. Lack of physical activity leads to obesity problems. The media influences public opinion and impacts the choices that people make.

27、ypes of media show the truth. With the intention of stressing their point or grabbing greater attention from the masses，the media exaggerates（夸大）things to a certain degree. Not everyone is able to filter out that element. Most believe everything to be real, especially kids and teenagers.Media source
28、s are so many in number and all of them so convincingly make their point that it is hard to distinguish between right and wrong. Thus while a certain amount of exposure to the media is essential for introducing ourselves to the world outside, excessive exposure, uncontrolled access and belief withou
29、t thought wont lead us anywhere. They will only make the negative effect of the media more obvious.Media descriptions give rise to stereotypes, affecting your mindset. Advertisements carry subliminal（潜意识的）messages influencing buyers psychology, or carry direct messages that bear a negative influence
30、. Its not possible to protect yourself completely from the effects of the media, even if you limit the exposure. And there are so many things you see around you, without choosing to watch them.

35、ed （溶解的）oxygen. The other reason is less obvious.

36、ause in a warmer world we can expect more rainfall and more melting（融化）of glaciers, icebergs, and ice sheets. 38 The extra heat from the warming atmosphere will also make surface water expand and thus make it lighter still. 39 Instead, more of the oxygen will remain near the surface, where it will b
37、e used up by oxygen-breathing organisms.A low-oxygen ocean may become an inescapable feature of our planet. A team of Danish researchers wondered how long oxygen levels would drop if we could somehow reduce our carbon dioxide emissions to zero by 2100. They determined that over the next few thousand
38、 years oxygen levels would continue to fall, until they declined by 30 percent. The oxygen would slowly return to the oceans, but even 100,000 years from now they will not have fully recovered. 40_A. Its not known why the oxygen level of oceans has reduced.B. Scientists point to two reasons to expec
39、t a drop in ocean oxygen.C. Fresh waters inpouring will make the water at the oceans surface lighter.D. The oxygen then spreads to the deep ocean as the surface water slowly sinks.E. Global warming has caused the reduction of the oxygen content of oceans worldwide.F. The light surface water will be
40、less likely to sink so the deep ocean will get less oxygen.G. If they are right, we have every reason to worry about the major effect it has on sea life.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分 45 分）第一节 完形填空（共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A 、B、C 和 D）中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Jake Olson lost his left eye when he wa
