13、use 80 percent of my body is lungs and my drumstick acts as a propeller (螺旋桨).”When Nick was born, his father was so shocked that he left the hospital room to vomit(呕吐).His distraught mother couldnt bring herself to hold him until he was four months old.“It was so hard for them, but right from the s

14、tart they did their best to make me independent. My dad put me in the water when I was 18 months old and gave me the courage to learn how to swim,” said Nick.Throughout his childhood Nick dealt with the typical challenges. At the age of seven, Nick tried out some specially designed electronic arms a

15、nd legs, in the hope that he would be more likeother kids. During the short trial(试用) period of the electronic arms and legs, Nick realized thateven with them, he was still unlike his peers （同辈）at school, and they turned out to be much too heavy for Nick to operate, affecting his flexibility quite s

20、 couldnt afford themB. his classmates didnt like themC. they were too heavy to handleD. they affected his appearance( B )Why do Americans struggle with watching their weight, while the French, who consume（消 耗） rich food, continue to stay thin? Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life s

21、tyle and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers concluded that the French tend tostop eating when they feel full. However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an i

22、mportant part of their life style. They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating lon

23、g after the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs

24、as well as high-quality meats for each meal.After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Dont Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food. Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.

25、In spite of all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesity or extreme overweight among adults is only 6%.

28、cation(分类) ( C )BEIJING, China - Chinese leaders announced on Thursday that they would officially end the countrys “one-child policy,” allowing couples to have two children instead. The policy, which was designed to help curb the countrys population growth, has been one of the most controversial pol

29、icies of the last century. Heres what you need to know now that the policy is on its way out.Under Chairman Mao Zedongs rule between 1949 and 1976, Chinas population nearly doubled to 940 million people. That spike （ 剧 增 ） , combined with growing fears of global overpopulation, inspired Chinas leade

30、rs to attempt to slow further growth.China established the one-child policy in 1979. The “one-child” label itself is a bit of a misnomer（使用不当的名称）. While urban families have largely been limited to one child, many couples were given exceptions, including ethnic minorities（少数民族）, rural families whose

31、first child was a daughter and couples who were both only children. Still, for decades anyone whoexceeded（超过） the birth limits was subject to escalating（使上涨）fines, as well as forced sterilizations(不孕) and abortions .Chinese leaders and experts now see the policy as fueling（激起） massive economic and s
