20、opular drinks throughout the world today. In fact, according to some estimates, over 30% of all adults in the world drink coffee at least once a day on the average. Coffee contains a kind of drug called caffeine. (66) Caffeine is a chemical substance that stimulates the nerves of the body. Drinking
21、coffee tends to make people a little bit more awake, at least for a short timebecause of this stimulating effect on the nervous system. A cup of coffee has, on the average, about 3% caffeine in it.One story of the discovery of the coffee plant relates to this effect of caffeine. According to the sto
22、ry, coffee was discovered in East Africa. The story says that coffee was first found by a goat farmer named Kaldi. This was about the year 850.Kaldi was leading his animals through the mountains and the goats were stopping repeatedly to eat the plants near the path. Suddenly, some of the goats start
23、ed jumping up and down in a very strange way.Kaldi figured out that the goats were acting this way because of the plants they were eating. Kaldi himself tried eating some of the green beans that the goats had been eating. He, too, felt the stimulating effect of the beans.Kaldi wanted to prove what h
24、ad happened, so he picked some of the beans and took them back to his home village, where he told his story. The green bean got the name “Kaffa“ and later “coffee“ because the beans were discovered in a place called Kaffa in Africa.Then for years, people used to eat a few of the green Kaffa beans wh
25、en they were in the mountains and needed extra energy or stimulation. It was later found that the coffee beans could be picked and then dried until they turned brown, and then they could be stored. If the beans were dried and stored, they could be used at any time.46 Caffeine is a kind of drug that
26、can_.（A）strengthen ones heart（B） make ones bones strong（C） make one more active or alert（D）ease the pain on the body47 According to the passage, one will become_if he drinks coffee.（A）clear-headed（B） strong（C） nervous（D）intelligent48 Kaldi was a_.（A）doctor（B） shepherd（C） druggist（D）chemist49 How did

28、oats loved the green beans very much.（C） Because the beans were discovered in a place so named.（D）Because the beans could be picked and dried.50 In the United States, about 750, 000 persons have suffered AIDS. More than one half of them have died.But doctors say evidence also shows there is no reaso
29、n for persons to become terrified by the disease. The AIDS virus is spread during sex with an infected partner, or by infected blood. But doctors say their studies show the disease is not spread through normal, close social activities.A study by one research team was printed in the New England Journ
30、al of Medicine. The doctors studied one-hundred-one family members who lived with AIDS and lived in crowded conditions. The family members shared many personal goods with the patients. These included toothbrushes, drinking glasses, beds, towels and toilets.Doctors said only one family membera five-y
31、ear-old girlgot the AIDS virus. They note, however, that the girls mother had the disease. They believe the girl probably was born with the virus. No other family member in the study got the AIDS virus or showed any signs of the disease.The head of the study, Gerald Friedland, said if the disease is
32、 not easily spread in crowded homes, it also will not spread easily in factories, offices, schools and other public places. (67) Doctor Friedland said the study also shows there is no reason to punish AIDS patients and to force them to live separately from other persons.American health officials rec
33、ently warned, however, that some health care workers should take special care. The report noted the AIDS virus is carried in blood and other body fluids. It said health care workers should put protective covers over their eyes and skin during medical operations, dental work, or other times when the
34、patient may bleed.(68)In the United States, most AIDS patients are homosexual people, people taking drugs, people who used infected needles, and persons who received infected blood. More recent studies show the AIDS virus also can be spread during heterosexual(异性的)relations. It can spread either fro
35、m the man to the woman, or from the woman to the man.51 Doctors say there is no reason for people to be frightened about AIDS because_.（A）it is not deadly（B） few people are infected with AIDS（C） the AIDS virus is not spread in everyday social activities（D）the AIDS virus is not spread during sex52 Th
36、e study of 101 family members who lived with AIDS patients shows that_.（A）the AIDS is not spread by personal goods（B） women are more likely to get the AIDS virus than men（C） married people are less likely to get AIDS than unmarried ones（D）the AIDS virus is passed by drinking glasses53 From the last
37、sentence of Para. 5, we can learn that we have no reason to_.（A）stop meeting AIDS patients in public places（B） stop living with AIDS patients（C） fear that AIDS can be passed from a mother to a baby（D）fear that the AIDS virus can be passed during sex54 Health workers were warned to take special care
38、when the patient bleeds because_.（A）AIDS can be passed by touching the patients body（B） AIDS can be spread by touching the patients skin（C） AIDS virus can be carried in blood or other body fluids（D）AIDS virus is easily spread in eye and skin55 _are least likely to be infected with the AIDS disease.（
39、A）People who take drugs（B） Persons who receive infected blood（C） People who are homosexual（D）Unmarried people who dont take drugs55 Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a great deal.(69) One of their chief duties is to give their children a sense of personal worth, for self-est
40、eem is the basis of a good mental health. A youngster who is often made to feel stupid, often compared to brighter brothers, sisters, or cousins, will not feel confident and become so afraid of failing, that he ( or she ) wont try at all. Of course, they should be corrected when they do wrong, this
41、is the way children learn. But the criticisms should be balanced with praises.Parents owe their children firm guidance and consistent discipline. It is frightening for a youngster to feel that he is in charge of himself; its like being in a car without brakes. The parent who says “No“ when other par
42、ents say “Yes“ sends a double message. He is also saying: “I love you, and I am ready to risk your anger, because I dont want you to get into trouble. “Parents owe their children a comfortable feeling about their body, and enough information about sex to balance the wrong information that they will
43、surely receive from their friends.Parents owe their children privacy and respect for their personal things. This means not borrowing things without being permitted, not reading diaries and mail, not looking through pockets. If a mother feels that she must read her daughters diary to know what is goi
44、ng on, the communication between them must be pretty bad.Parents own their children a set of solid values around which to build their lives. ( 70) This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinions of others: it means respecting elders, teachers and the law. The best way to teach such value
45、s is by example. A child who is lied to will lie. A child who sees his parents steal tools from the factory or towels from a hotel will think that it is all right to steal. A youngster who sees no laughter and no love in the home will have a difficult time laughing and loving.No child asks to be bor
46、n. If you bring a life into the world, you owe the child something. And if you give rim his due, he 11 have something of value to pass along to your grandchildren.56 According to the passage, parents owe their children the following things Except_.（A）privacy（B） cars（C） respect of self（D）information
47、about their body57 The writer thinks that teenagers are frightened when they are in charge of themselves because_.（A）they dont know how to stop a car without brakes（B） there is no one to ask for help when in trouble（C） there is no one to guide and discipline them（D）they are afraid of being left alon
48、e58 Parents are advised to show love to their children by_.（A）saying “Yes“ to everything the children ask for（B） refusing something to their children（C） never embracing older children（D）never criticizing children59 The word “due“ in the last paragraph means_.（A）what must be given to someone because
