2．Annette Larkins is an incredible woman who looks like a healthy 40-year-old，although she just turned 70.She follows a special raw diet and only drinks rainwater.
She looks so young that people mistake her for the daughter，when she's out with her husband of 54 years，but I suppose he isn't complaining.
Mrs.Larkins says the secret to her beauty lies in her special diet，consisting of organic vegetables，fruits，seeds and nuts grown in her own garden；she calls it the "fountain of youth".The woman doesn't touch anything that has been cooked.
And another strange thing she does is to collect rainwater，to keep her garden blossoming，but also to drink.But the resident of Miami-Dade County，F(xiàn)lorida，didn't always have such a healthy lifestyle.In fact，she consumed meat regularly，as her husband used to own a meat factory way back in the 1960s.It was then that she decided to change her eating habits forever.And what a great decision that was.I mean，just look at her!

3．Angus，Doris，Gabriel and Kamil are some of the 21 names that have been chosen to be given to storms in the UK in the 2016/17 season．
The Met Office，the UK's national weather service，decided to give storms boys' and girls' names in 2015 in the same way as they did in America．
The Met Office hopes that naming big storms will mean people are more aware （意識到） of them and how dangerous they can be．Derrick Ryall，from the Met Office，said， "We have seen how naming storms elsewhere in the world raises people's awareness of storms before they break．"
In the past，the same UK storm could be given different names by different organizations． "We noticed that many organizations during the last couple of winters，when we have had bad storms，started giving names to them．Think back to the St Jude's Day storm in 2013，and the socalled Hurricane Bawbag in Scotland in 2011．But it led to confusion （混亂），" a Met Office spokeswoman said．
According to the Met Office，there is a name for each letter of the whole alphabet （字母表），except for Q，U，X，Y and Z．That is the same as the naming tradition used in America．And not all storms will be big enough to get names - only those expected to cause great damage．
If there are more than 21 storms in a year，the Met Office will start again with another name beginning with "A"．However，according to Met Office spokeswoman Lindsay Mears， "It's unlikely we would get through the whole alphabet in one season．We had 14 storms in the very bad winter of 2013/14，and if the naming system had been in operation then we wouldn't have used the whole alphabet．"
（1）Why are storms in the UK named？
A．To increase public awareness of them．
B．To remind people of their short stay．
C．To follow what other countries did．
D．To meet the needs of its people．
（2）Examples are given in Paragraph 4 to show．
A．there're many storms to name in a year
B．organizations named storms differently
C．some storms' names are similar to others'
D．some storms' names are hard to understand
（3）What do we know about the names given to storms？
A．Storms will be given names whatever their sizes．
B．Serious storms will be given boy's names．
C．21 letters will be used to begin the names．
D．21 names will be given at most in a year．
（4）What can be learned from Lindsay Mears？
A．There are not too many big storms yearly．
B．Action will be taken to prevent storms．
C．There are usually 14 storms in a year．
D．The naming system will not change．組卷：33引用：3難度：0.6 -
4．A cycling training at Queen Mary homeless women's hostel（收容所）in London starts.Eleven women discuss what they're hoping to achieve in today's training.Then they push their bikes to a basketball court to practice in an off-road environment.Supported by instructor（指導員），they practice riding by themselves.Sometimes these women feel a little tired because they take medicine，but they have all made up their mind for cycling training.
Last year Queen Mary approached Sustrans （a charity） to set up a cycling club for women.Many of them have low levels of fitness.All have survived challenging situations ranging from social isolation（孤立）to abusive（虐待的）relationships.The hostel staff，who are experienced mental health experts，try to develop cycling to build the women's confidence and give them access（進入權）to other fields of society.The hostel is moving away from traditional treatment of mental health with the belief that cycling could be a really useful tool in helping the women live on their own.After the success of a 10-week pilot project，the cycling club received financial support of ￡10，000 to continue the club.
In modern society，homelessness and mental health problems often go hand in hand.Studies have shown that physical activities，including walking and cycling，can be used to overcome and even prevent stress，depression and anxiety.They can be more effective than medical treatments.
Women，however，are less likely than men to take part in physical activities.Women in the UK make nearly three times fewer cycling journeys than men.Two main causes of this are traditional barriers-mostly because women still undertake most household tasks- and fear of judgment.The network of bike paths has been expanded（擴展） yet the "build it and they will come" approach ignores the fact that not all people start from the same point.Social interventions（干預）are a useful way to achieve equality of access to cycling.
（1）What can we learn about the women at Queen Mary？
A．They are quite determined.
B．They used to be good athletes.
C．They committed serious crimes.
D．They teach themselves cycling.
（2）What's the main purpose in setting up the cycling club？
A．To raise money for the poor.
B．To promote the benefits of cycling.
C．To help homeless women get a good job.
D．To make homeless women better fit into society.
（3）What does the author stress in the third paragraph？
A．The harm of mental problems.
B．The causes of different mental states.
C．The various treatments for mental illness.
D．The positive effect of sports on mental health.
（4）What is suggested for encouraging women to cycle？
A．Building more bike paths.
B．Starting purposeful activities.
C．Providing support in housework.
D．Strengthening education on equality.組卷：1引用：2難度：0.5
