But doctors in the Washington area say a twelve­year­old boy died last month of a tooth infection that spread to his brain. They say i

27、t might have been prevented if the boy had received the dental care he needed.Experts at the National Institutes of Health say good dental care should start at birth. They say breast milk is the best food for the healthy development of teeth. Breast milk can help slow bacterial growth and acid produ

28、ction in the mouth.When babys teeth begin to appear，you can clean them with a wet toothbrush. Dentists say it is important to find soft toothbrushes made especially for babies，and use them very gently.The use of fluoride (氟化物) to protect teeth is common in many parts of the world. This natural eleme

29、nt is often added to drinking water supplies. The fluoride mixes with enamel(釉質(zhì))，the hard surface on teeth，to help prevent holes，or cavities from forming.But the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry points out that young children often swallow toothpaste when they brush their teeth. The group not

30、es that swallowing fluoridated toothpaste can cause problems. So young children should be carefully supervised when they brush their teeth. And only a small amount of fluoridated toothpaste，the size of a green pea，should be used.Parents often wonder what effects sucking a thumb or sucking on a pacif

31、ier might have on their babys teeth. Dental experts generally agree that this is fine early in life.The American Academy of Family Physicians says most kids stop sucking their thumbs by the age of four. If it continues，the group advises parents to talk to their childs dentist or doctor. It could inf

32、luence the correct development of permanent teeth.56The boy with a bad tooth died because_.Ahis tooth disease was very deadlyBthe doctor refused to treat him properlyChe didnt receive timely treatmentDsomething was wrong with his brain57All the following statements are good to teeth except that _.Ac

33、hildren live on breast milk every dayBchildren begin to brush their teeth when they are old enoughCchildren use fluoride toothpaste to brush their teethDchildren form the habit of sucking their thumbs58Which one of the followings is NOT true according to this passage?ADental care should be given to

34、babies as soon as they are born.BSpecial toothbrushes should be used for babies.CBreast milk and fluoride are helpful to protect baby teeth.DDental experts suggest stopping babies sucking their thumbs.59The best title of this passage is _.AThe reason of a twelve­year­old boys deathBBaby te

35、eth should be cared for from birthCBreast milk and fluoride are importantDHow to help young children form good habits BIt is said that the scientists attending a meeting in Chicago presented new studies showing how food and its production affect global warming. They offered some suggestions for how

36、to eat in a more environmentally friendly way.For many years，scientists have warned us that our planet is getting warmer. If current trends continue，animals may start to die off and life could get very difficult for everyone. The temperature is rising because humans have been releasing massive amoun

37、ts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere，which surround the planet and keep heat from escaping. One of these gases is carbon dioxide.Most carbon dioxide we produce comes from the process of making and eating food，the scientists reported in Chicago. The production of meat contributes to a lot of ca

38、rbon dioxide. And much of meats contribution comes from beef，which is responsible for releasing even more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.The process of making a hamburger，for example，requires a lot of energy. A cow has to be fed and raised，and cows wastes are a major source of greenhouse gases

39、. After the cow is killed，the meat has to be processed and shipped to a consumer，which takes fuel. And most of the cow wont even be used for meat people eat.By the time a hamburger finally lands on a dinner plate，it has taken a heavy toll on the environment. It is believed that the process of making

40、 a half­pound all­beef burger adds about 19 times the weight of hamburgers in carbon dioxide.The message is clear：We can greatly reduce the production of greenhouse gases by eating less beef. Other kinds of meat like pork and chicken do less harm to the environmentat least in terms of the

41、amount of greenhouse gases released. Nathan Pelletier，a scientist at Dalhousie University in Canada，reported that if everyone in industrial countries ate chicken instead of beef，we would cut the Earths greenhouse gases by more than half.All kinds of meat，the scientists reported，are harder on the pla

42、net than vegetables. To grow and eat a pound of potatoes，for example，sends less than one quarter pound of carbon dioxide into the air. So shifting our diet to less meat and more vegetables may do the world some good.60The text mainly tells us _.Awhat we eat can affect the whole planetBthe way we liv

43、e affects the environmentChow we can save energy on the EarthDhow we can produce environment­friendly food61Why does the author mention the process of making a hamburger?ATo show meat is usually part of a hamburger.BTo illustrate that our food contributes to greenhouse gases.CTo prove making a

44、hamburger is a complex process.DTo suggest a lot of energy is needed to make hamburgers.62The author believes one effective way to fight global warming is_.Awe should eat no pork and no chickenBwe should eat more chicken than beefCwe should eat not meat but vegetablesDwe should eat less meat and mor

45、e vegetables63Which of the following statements would Nathan Pelletier agree to?AEating pork and chicken is more environmentally friendly.BMeat consumption is the main cause of greenhouse gases.CPeople in industrial countries consume more beef than fish.DEating more beef is a more efficient way to s

46、ave more energy. C Nowadays more women are graduating from colleges than men.The situation is causing some people to worry about the future.The trend could cause social problems，according to a report on July 8 by the Washington Post.Women received about 57 percent of the bachelors degrees awarded th

47、is year from colleges and universities in the United States. The figure of 57 percent has been the highest since World War ended in 1945.During the war，many men were in the military.The gap between men and women is greater among African Americans and Hispanics. Two African­American women receiv

48、e a degree for every African­American man. Only 40 percent of Hispanics who get a degree are males.The USA Department of Education estimates 698,000 females received bachelors degree this year. The number of male graduates was 529,000.The trend toward more female graduates began in the mid­

49、;1980s.Nobody seems to know why. However，many theories exist.Researchers say the trend could lead to social problems. They also say this may indicate two things. It may reflect the increasing success of women. But it also may show the educational problems affecting men.High school graduation rates a

50、re slightly lower for men than for women. Males also make up the vast majority of students in special education classes.The Business Roundtable is studying the trend. The group is an organization of chief executives of some of the nations largest corporations. Susan Traiman is the director of the gr

51、oups education policy. Traiman said the nation couldnt afford to let half its population fail to develop skills needed for the future.64Some people worry about the future because _.Athere are many social problems in AmericaBmore and more men dont like the life in collegeCmore African­American w

52、omen receive a degreeDfewer and fewer men receive a degree than women in America65Which one of the following statements is right according to this passage?AThere must be something wrong with the education system.B40% of the Hispanics get a degree in America.CNobody knows the reason why more women ge

53、t a degree than men.DMore than half of the men received bachelors degrees this year.66The underlined word “estimates” in the fourth paragraph means_.AguessesBexplains CintroducesDdiscovers D One of the serious problems for todays society is who should be responsible for the old and how to improve their lives. It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society. I would like to suggest several possible solutions to this problem.First，employers should take the responsibility for their retired
