You may have heard of the book Moby Dick(《白鲸记》), written by the American author Herman Melville. You may also know that Moby Dick is considered one of the greatest novels ever written. However, it might surprise you to find out Herman Melville was not always a highly regarded author.
Melville’s first two novels, Typee and Omoo, were widely read and financially successfully. They were both exciting tales of adventures at sea and experiences with people in foreign lands. Melville became quite famous. However, upon the publication of his third book, Mardi, Melville’s popularity began to weaken. He was no longer interested in telling tales of pure adventure, and his writing took on a style that alienated(使疏远) the general reading public of his time.
Melville published Moby Dick in October of 1851. it was an original novel, combining aspects of sociology and philosophy, which confused readers by its complex symbolism. The book sold poorly.
Melville’s next book, Pierre, was almost completely disregarded by the public. Debt frustration and ill health finally forced Melville to take a low-paying job as a customs inspector. Eventually, Melville abandoned prose(散文) and began to write poetry.
The Civil War is the main subject of Melville’s poetry. He and his brother made a trip to the front line, and he published a book of poems, Battle-Pieces and Aspects of War, based on this experience.
Melville died in 1891 at the age of 72. at this point, his work had been completely forgotten by the public. His talent was to go unrecognized for the next thirty years. Then, in 1920s, his reputation began to improve as critics and readers rediscovered his work. Today Moby Dick is one of the best-known novels ever penned by an American author.

It has always been thought that alcohol causes people to put on weight because it contains a lot of sugar, but new research suggests glass a day could form part a diet. Looking at past studies they found that, while heavy drinkers do put on weight; those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight.
A spokesman for the research team at Navarro University in Spain says, “Light to moderate alcohol intake, especially of wine, may be more likely to protect against, rather than promote, weight gain.” The International Scientific Forum on Alcohol research reviewed the findings and agreed with most of the conclusions, particularly that data do not clearly indicate if moderate drinking increases weight.
Boston University’s Dr. Harvey Finkel found that the biologic mechanisms(生物学机制)relating alcohol to changes in body weight are not properly understood. His team pointed out the strong protective effects of moderate drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes(糖尿病), which relate to increasing obesity. Some studies suggest that even very obese people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers．
The group says alcohol provides calories that are quickly absorbed into the body and a enot stored in fat, and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods. They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks, taking into consideration drinking patterns and including the past tendency of participants to gain weight.
For now there is little evidence that consuming small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one’s risk of becoming obese. What’s more, a study three years ago suggested that resveratrol, a compound present in grapes and red wine destroys fat cells.
The passage is mainly for those__________．

A．who produce wine

B．who have a drinking habit

C．who go on a diet

D．who are eager to lose weight

The underlined phrase“ in moderation” in the first paragraph means_________．

A．excitedly	B．carefully
C． frequently	D．properly

What can we learn from the passage?

A．Current data clearly show that moderate drinking increases weight.

B．Resveratrol is proved to increase the risk of becoming fat.

C．The research found moderate drinking has a strong protective effect.

D．The specific roles of different types of alcoholic drinks are very clear.

What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?

A．How to do some easy experiments.

B．How to reduce the calories contained in wine.

C．How to prove the finding mentioned above.

D．How to make wine in a healthy way.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
If you’re making the film with other people, organize your cast and crew effectively. Make sure everybody knows their roles and what day and times they’re needed.
Give people specific jobs so they can become experts in their field. For example, a soundrecordist listens to the sound through headphones as it’s being recorded, and holds an extra microphone if needed.
A camera operator frames the picture(取景), sets focus, checks the light and records the action. The editor “cuts” the picture together after it’s shot.
A producer is the contact point for the film. He or she makes sure crew and cast are there on time, talks to the press and organizes the budget.
A director has to make sure their vision is communicated. To do this everyone needs to be clear about what the director expects from each scene and each shot.
You may also need a make-up-artist, a choreographer, a driver, etc. However, you can quite easily make your first film on your own. Make a schedule that says which shots are to be taken where and when (this is called a shooting schedule) and when you’ve completed a take, cross it off the list. Remember that you may want to shoot “out of sequence”, e.g. shoot the last scene first, and the first last. Similarly if the film begins and ends by a tree in the park, it may make sense to film both scenes while you’re there.
If you’re making animation (动画片), have a space that you can control. You may need extra lights and you may need to leave work in progress. Make sure people living with you are aware what’s happening. Animation needs a lot of undisturbed concentration and patience. Keep at it and it’ll pay off. Aardman and Disney both started off at home experimenting with clay , pens and a camera.
From the first two paragraphs we can learn that___________.

A．every crew member is an expert in his field.

B．careful preparations and arrangements are quite necessary.

C．both the cast and crew must arrive at the same time every day.

D．every person should have his equipment while working together.

A director knows the purpose of each step of the work, but___________ .

A．he needn’t tell others about that

B．other members just follow his orders

C．he must have it known and well understood by others

D．others may have their own ideas and special ways of working

To shoot a film, a shooting schedule must be fixed first ______________.

A．but it may be crossed off if unnecessary

B．but you needn’t work exactly on it

C．and each step must be carried out according to it.

D．and no one can change it once it is settled

Can eating a chocolate bar every day really prevent age-related memory loss? No. But a new research shows that large amounts of flavones(黄酮), substances found in cocoa,teaand some kinds of vegetables,may improve age-related memory failure.
Dr. Scott Small is a professor of neurology (神经学) at Columbia University in New York City. He is the leadwriter of a research paper describing the effects of cocoa flavones on brain activity. His study involved 37 volunteers aged between 50 and 69. Researchers gave them a high-level flavones drink madefrom cocoa beans or a low-level flavones drink. For a period of three months, somesubjects got 900 milligrams of flavones a day. The others got 10 milligrams of flavones each day. Brain imaging and memory tests were given to each study subject before and after the study. Dr. Small says that the subjects who had the high-level flavones drink showed much improvement on memory tests.
The researchers warn that more work is needed to be done because this study was performed only on a small group. Dr. Joann Manson is the leadresearcher of a four-year study involving 18,000 adults. This study will use flavones capsules. The studysubjects will be divided into two groups and will take two pills per day. The capsules used will all look the same. But one group's capsules will contain flavones, while the other group will take capsules made of an inactive substance, or placebo（安慰剂）.
Dr. Manson says it's not necessary for people to start eating more chocolate, because 3 persons would have to eat a huge amount of chocolate to get the same level of flavones given to the rest subjects. He adds many manufacturers have planned to remove the flavonesfromtheir chocolate products. Similarly, Dr. Manson says a cocoa-based flavones extract（提取）maybe developed in the future But he says that more studies are needed to see how much flavones is good for our health.
What was done to thesubjects after Dr. Small's study?

A．They were asked to take a high-level flavones drink.

B．They were given brain imaging and memory tests.

C．They were given capsules containing flavones.

D．They were asked to take two pills of flavones capsules per day.

What's the similarity of the two experiments?

A．Both use high-level flavones capsules.

B．The number of the subjects is the same.

C．Drinks and placebos are used in both experiments.

D．Thesubjects are divided into two groups in both experiments.

Why will Dr. Manson carry out the four-year study?

A．To carry out the experiment further.

B．To prove the first experiment is wrong.

C．To test how much flavones can improve our memory.

D．To show eating chocolate is better to improve memory.

What can we learnfromthe last paragraph?

A．It's not necessary for us to eat chocolate.

B．In the future we can get flavones without eating chocolate.

C．The more we eat flavones, the better our healthwill be.

D．It's easy for people to get the same level of flavones given to the test subjects.

A．A 30-year-old worker.	B．A 50-year-old doctor.
C．A 22-year-old manager.	D．A 15-year-old student.

A．the booking agent	B．the teacher
C．the manager	D．a postman
