　　Everybody can suffer from stress. No matter what your age is，you can feel stressed out by things that are happening in your life. Teenagers，however，have many more opportunities to get stressed than people in any other age group. Being a teenager is hard. You are not a child any more，but you are not an adult，even though you have to deal with some very grown-up problems and decisions.

There are so many young people finishing school and not enough jobs for them. Sadly，there is nothing we can do to remove these causes of stress from the 1ives of teenagers，but you can learn the best way to deal with it.

　　：“fashion” means “clothes”

　　For most people，the word “fashion” means “clothes”。 But people may ask the question，“What clothes are in fashion?”And they use the adjective “fashionable” in the same way：

　　“She was wearing a fashionable coat. His shirt was really a fashionable colour.”

　　But of course there are fashions in many things，not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays，in restaurants，in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects，jobs…and in languages.

　　Fashions change as time goes. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past，you will see that fashions have always changed. An English house of 1750 was different from one of 1650. A fashionable man in 1780 looked very different from his grandson in 1860.

　　Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly than in the past. Newspaper，radios，telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours. Newfashions mean that people will buy new things，so you see there is money in fashion.

　　In Britain you may often hear “Drop in any time” or “Come to see me soon”，but you can't really do that. People just say those things to make you feel welcome. It is better to telephone before visiting someone at home. If you receive a written invitation to an event that says “RSVP”，you should reply to let the person who sent the invitation know whether or not you plan to go.

Although it is not necessarily expected that you give a gift to your host，it is considered polite to do so，especially if you have been invited for a meal. Flowers，chocolate，or a small gift are all appropriate***合適的***。A thank-you note or telephone call after the visit is also considered polite and is an appropriate way to express your appreciation for the invitation.

　　：some scientists say

　　Unless we spend money to spot***認出，發現***and prevent asteroids***小行星***now，one might crash into Earth and destroy life as we know it，say some scientists.

　　Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids***流星體***that race across the night sky. Most orbit the sun far from Earth and don‘t threaten us. But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth.

　　But $500 million worth of new telescopes right now，then spend $10 million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks. By the time we spot a fatal one，the scientists say，we‘ll have a way to change its course.

　　Is it worth it?Two things experts consider when judging any risk are ***i***How likely the event is;***2***How bad the consequences if the event occurs. Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500，000 years. Sounds pretty rare but if one did fall. It would be the end of the world. “If we don‘t take care of these bid asteroids，they’ll take care of us，”says one scientist. “it‘s that simple.”

　　The cure，though，might be worse than the disease. Do we really want fleets***艦隊，車隊***of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth?“the world has less fear from doomsday***毀滅性***rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them.” Said a New York Times article.

　　1. What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids?

　　A. They are heavenly bodies different in composition.

　　B. They are heavenly bodies similar in nature.

　　C. They are more asteroids than meteoroids.

　　D. Asteroids are more mysterious than meteoroids.

　　2. What do scientists say about the collision of an asteroid with Earth?

　　A. It is very unlikely but the danger exists.

　　B. Such a collision might occur once every 25 years.

　　C. Collisions of smaller asteroids with Earth occur more often than expected.

　　D. It‘s still too early to say whether such a collision might occur.

　　3. What do people think of the suggestion of using nuclear weapons to alter the course of asteroids?

　　A. It sounds practical but it may not solve the problem.

　　B. It may create more problems than it might solve.

　　C. It is a waste of money because a collision of asteroids with Earth is very unlikely.

　　D. Further research should be done before it is proved applicable.

　　4. We can conclude from the passage that __

　　A. While pushing asteroids off course nuclear weapons would destroy the world.

　　B. Asteroids racing across the night sky are likely to hit Earth in the near future.

　　C. The worry about asteroids can be left to future generations since it is unlikely to happen in our lifetime.

　　D. Workable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth.

　　5.Which of the following best describes the author‘s tone in this passage?

　　A. Optimistic***樂觀的*** B.Critical***批評的*** C. Objective***客觀的*** D. Arbitrary***武斷的***

　　Cai,who is a student in journalism at Tsinghua,could be found at Beijing's Wudaokou Light Railway Station that special evening.

　　Cai was one of 14 Tsinghua students spending Christmas Eve among the poor.They walked in the cold wind along the streets from 4 to 7 pm on Friday,visiting 15 beggars in Beijing's Haidian District.

　　They brought bread and gloves with them,and stopped to greet beggars and offer them some of the warm food.Each beggar greeted them with a look of surprise.

　　"I know the activity can't help much,but it's meant to show our respect and care for beggars and the homeless who have been neglected for so long,"said Sun,head of the group.“And Christmas is a good time for that.”

　　A. protected B. found

　　C. taken care of D. given no enough care

　　答案與解析

　　1. 選C.第1段的最後一句…helping beggars***乞丐***and the homeless***people without homes***。就是他們的決定，即去幫助那些乞丐和無家可歸的人，給他們以關愛。答案選C.

　　2. 選B.根據第3段中的 woman所說的話：…for the first time I feel respected***尊重***。我們可以推斷出：乞丐們有太長的時間沒人關心了。故答案為B.

　　3. 選B. 在第6段中有這樣一句Each beggar greeted them with a look of surprise. 而B選項中Amazed 的同義表達就是surprised，所以答案為B.

　　4. 選D.本文講述了14個清華學子在平安夜幫助流浪漢和乞丐們的故事。這些流浪漢和乞丐們都感到十分的意外和溫暖，我們由此可推斷他們應該是長期given no enough care***被忽視的***原因。這樣我們就可以排除A、B、C三項，最後正確答案為D.
