While small may be beautiful tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems particularly when it comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants
The Tall Persons Club Great Britain(TPCGB) which was formed six months ago to campaign(发起运动)for the needs of the tall has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants Beds that are too small shower heads that are too low and restaurant tables with hardly any legroom all make life difficult for those of above average height it says
But it is not just the extratall whose needs are not being met The average height of the population has been increasing yet the standard size of beds doorways and chairs has remained unchanged The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it so even a kingsize bed at 6'6(6 feet and 6 inches) is falling short for 25%of men while the standard 6'3 bed caters for (满足需) less than half of the male(男性)population said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy Sevenfoot beds would work fine
Similarly restaurant tables can cause no end of problems Small tables which mean the longlegged have to sit a foot or so away from them are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere
Some have already taken note however At Queens Moat Houses’ Caledonian Hotel in Edinburgh 6'6 beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors particularly Americans
( )24 What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign
A To provide better services
B To rebuild hotels and restaurants
C To attract more people to become its members
D To draw public attention to the needs of the tall
( )25 Which of the following might be a bed of proper length according to Phil Heirtricy
A 72 B 7 C 66 D 63
( )26 What may happen to restaurants with small tables
A They have to find easy chairs to match the tables
B They may start businesses elsewhere
C They may lose some customers
D They have to provide enough space for the long—legged
( )27 What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh
A 66beds have taken the place of 63beds
B Tall people pay more for larger beds
C Special rooms are kept for Americans
D Guest rooms are standardize
C
If you ask people to name the one person who had the greatest effect on the English language you will get answers like ShakespeareSamuel Johnson and Webster but none of these men had any effect at all compared to a man who didn’t even speak English—William the Conqueror
Before 1066 in the land we now call Great Britain lived peoples belonging to two major language groups In the westcentral region lived the Welsh who spoke a Celtic language and in the north lived the Scots whose language though not the same as Welsh was also Celtic In the rest of the country lived the Saxons actually a mixture of Anglos Saxons and other Germanic and Nordic peoples who spoke a Celtic what we now call AngloSaxon(or Old English) a Germanic language If this state of affairs had based English today would be close to German
But this state of affairs did not last In 1066 the Normans led by William defeated the Saxons and began their rule over England For about a century French became the official language of English while Old English became the language of peasants As a result English words of politics and the law come from French rather than German In some cases modern English even shows a distinction(区) between upperclass French and lowerclass AngloSaxon in its words We even have different words for some foods meat in particular depending on whether it is still out in the fields or at home ready to be cooked which shows the fact that the Saxon peasants were doing the farming while the upperclass Normans were doing most of the eating
When Americans visit Europe for the first time they usually find Germany more foreign than France because the German they see on signs and advertisements seems much more different from English than French does Few realize that the English language is actually Germanic in its beginning and that the French influences are all the result of one man’s ambition
( )28 The two major languages spoken in what is now called Great Britain before 1066 were ____
A Welsh and Scottish B Nordic and Germanic
C AngloSaxon and Germanic D Celtic and Old English
( )29 Which of the following groups of words are by inference rooted in French
A president bread water B president lawyer beef
C bread field sheep D folk field cow
( )30 Why does France appear less foreign than Germany to Americans on their first visit to Europe
A They know French better than German
B They know little of the history of the English language
C Many French words are similar to English ones
D Most advertisements in France appear in English
( )31 What is the subject discussed in the text
A The history of Great Britain
B The similarity between English and French
C The French influences on the English language
D The rule of England by William the Conqueror
D
Science can't explain the power of pets but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure(血压)and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack reduce loneliness and spread allround good cheer
Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings For some an animal provides more comfort than a husbandwife A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress levels and blood pressure in people — half of them pet owners — while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic(算术)or held a hand in ice water Subjects completed the tasks alone with a husbandwife a close friend or with a pet People with pets did it best Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates With pets in the room people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions It seems people feel more released(放松)around pets says Allen who thinks it may be because pets don’t judge
A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and were put on a dietandexercise programs a separate group of 56 fat people without pets were put on a diet program On average people lost about 11 pounds or 5 of their body weight Their dogs did even better losing an average of 12 pounds more than 15 of their body weight Dog owners didn’t lose any more weight than those without dogs but say researchers got more exercise overall — mostly with their dogs — and found it worth doing
( )32 What does the text mainly discuss
A People’s opinions of keeping pets B How pets help people calm down
C What pets bring to their owners D Pet’s value in medical research
( )33 We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well if ________
A he often dose mental arithmetic B he is taken care of by his family
C he has a pet companion D he has less stress of work
( )34 According to Allen why did the people do better with pets around when facing stressful tasks
A They have lower blood pressure B They become more patient
C They are in higher spirits D They are less nervous
( )35 The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports that ____________
A people with dogs did more exercise
B dogs lost the same weight as people did
C dogs liked exercise much more than people did
D people without dogs found the program unhelpful

Color is fundamental in home design – something you’ll always have in every room A grasp of how to manage color in your spaces is one of the first steps to creating rooms you’ll love to live in Do you want a room that’s full of life Professional Or are you just looking for a place to relax after a long day 36 color is the key to making a room feel the way you want it to feel
Over the years there have been a number of different techniques to help designers approach this important point 37 they can get a little complex But good news is that there’re really only three kinds of decisions you need to make about color in your home the small ones the medium ones and the large ones
38 They’re the little spots of color like throw pillows mirrors and baskets that most of us use to add visual interest to our rooms Less tiring than painting your walls and less expensive than buying a colorful sofa small color choices bring with them the significant benefit of being easily changeable
Medium color choices are generally furniture pieces such as sofas dinner tables or bookshelves 39 They require a bigger commitment than smaller ones and they have a more powerful effect on the feeling of a space
The large color decisions in your rooms concern the walls ceilings and floors Whether you’re looking at wallpaper or paint the time effort and relative expense put into it are significant 40
A Whatever you’re looking for
B While all of them are useful
C If you’re experimenting with a color
D Small color choices are the ones we’re most familiar with
E It’s not really a good idea to use too many small color pieces
F So it pays to be sure because you want to get it right the first time
G Color choices in this range are a step up from the small ones in two major ways

Dear Leslie
I’m glad to receive your email You asked me to share with you what I did in the epidemic situation Here are my experiences
Since the outbreak of COVID19 in Wuhan in December 2019 I have stayed at home On the one hand I paid close attention to the epidemic situation through watching CCTV news or surfing the Internet on the other hand I insisted on studying Not only did I read classics but also I had online courses given by my teachers At the same time I did my homework Besides I took exercise every day to keep healthy Faced with the disaster many people including doctors nurses and scientists acted bravely and spared no effort to fight against it They are real heroes
Thank you for your concern I’m looking forward to your reply
Yours
