For example, one advantage 2 to the education in Japan is that students there learn much more math and science 3 than American students. They also study more hours each day than Americans 4 do . The study is difficult, but it 5 prepares students for a society that values discipline and self-control. There is, however, a disadvantage. Memorization is an important learning method in Japanese schools, 6 yet many students say that after an exam, they forget much of the information that they have memorized.The advantage to the education in North America, 7 on the other hand, is that students learn to think by themselves. The system prepares them for a society that values 8 new ideas. There is, however, a disadvantage. When students graduate from high school, they havent memorized 9 as many basic rules and facts as students in other countries 10 have . Passage 2A study has shown that fitness is the key 1 to long life, irrespective of body shape 2 or even smoking habits. Researchers discovered that people who exercise live longer than 3those who do not , even if they are overweight and smoke.The study found that 4 the least fit of the 6,000 middle-aged men in the study were five times more likely to die within six years of the start of the research than the fittest. This was true 5 whether or not the men had heart problems, smoked or were overweight. Scientists concluded that it was better 6 to be fat and active than skinny and sedentary. Dr Ken cooper, a fitness expert, said, “ You are better off smoking a packet of cigarettes a day and exercising regularly than 7 being a non smoker and sedentary.” Although he adds, “But dont misunderstand me. I am not endorsing 8 smoking , I am trying to tell you how dangerous it is to be sedentary.”The British Government is putting pressure 9 on manufacturers to reduce high levels of sugar in food and to restrict the hard-sell of junk food to children in order to improve the nations health. But the new study suggests the Government should encourage more people 10to exercise Passage 3More and more people 1 have to install burglar alarms in their houses if they want to get insurance. Insurance companies 2 have been asking people in certain areas to install the alarms before they will give them insurance for the fast year. This is 3 due to increasing crime in some parts of the country. This can be a problem for people 4 who are struggling to make 5 ( 不填) ends meet. The alarms, 6 which can be very expensive, need to be installed by an electrician. It is 7 estimated that 20% of homes have alarms installed, and that another 20% of people plan 8 to have them installed but have not installed them 9 yet . The insurance companies told people 10 to install the alarms on all doors and windows. Passage 4Peter Blake is a successful businessman, but he 1 used to be very poor. He had nowhere to live and 2was working in a pub when he 3decided to start his own business. Peter had always 4 been interested in plants and flowers, 5 so he decided to set up a company 6 which cared for the plants in big offices. At first he worked on his 7own , but soon he took 8 on two people to help him. The company has been growing 9.- for the last ten years. Peter is now very rich, 10 but he complains that now he doesnt work with plants but with a computer every day!Passage 5Although international travel is usually an 1 exciting and pleasant experience, travellers should take steps to ensure that their health does not suffer either 2frominfromtheir time _ the air or _ their time abroad.Before you go, check with your doctor or local travel clinic 3 which injections are necessary for the areas you are travelling 4to . Allow sufficient time to have these injections before you 5 leave because they may take time to become effective. Be sure that the information on health is up-to-date. Check on the Internet if you are not sure.Dont go to bed late the day 6 before you fly. Your body has a natural daily sleep pattern. It takes time to adjust to a new time zone. There are many different 7 effects of jet lag: you may not be able to sleep, you may not want to eat or you may feel sick and tired. You may not be able to concentrate for some days after you arrive.There are several things you can do to 8 lessenthe effects of jet lag: Do your 9 best to relax during the flight; Sleep as much as you can on the flight. Use a mild sleeping pill if necessary; Drink as much water as you can; Dont drink alcohol and caffeine; Take mild sleeping pills 10 for the first few days in the new time zone if you need them. Passage 6Traffic in India means a mixture of all kinds of vehicles on the road. About 700,000 new cars 1 have been sold in India in the last twelve months, and about twice that many used cars have been traded. The country's 35 million motorcycles and scooters make it the world's largest two-wheel market. But because there are still big differences 2 in people's incomes, the roads are full of a whole variety of 3 vehicles , lots of them not motorised. A ride 4 with a taxi driver in New Delhi gives a flavour of a typical Indian-style traffic with all kinds of vehicle held up in city streets or in long lines 5 on narrow country lanes. Cars, lorries and buses back up behind a cart 6 pulled by one animal or another. "India has everything on the roads," the taxi driver says. "You have to 7 watch out for pedestrians, bicycles, carts, cows, donkeys and even elephants. Three things 8are recommended to drive here, a horn, brakes and good luck." Just then we were stopped 9 by a young boy and his cow.Given the hazards, it's not surprising 10 that special ceremonies are held for new car owners in which the steering wheel and the driver are both blessed. Passage 7Most workers spend eight hours on the job a day on 1 workdays . They work because they need money for necessities. They spend about one third of their lives at work, but hate it. By contrast, some people actually 2 enjoy work. They spend 3extra hours on the job each week and often take work home with them. They are called “workaholics(工作狂)” as they are addicted to their job as other people are 4 to alcohol.Workaholics would 5 rather work than do anything else and this can be most important to their life. Workaholics are often 6 under stress. They cant relax and feel tense. 7 As a result they may easily lose temper. Their work therefore has serious impact on their relationships and family life. Typical workaholics pay little attention to families. They spend 8 little time with their children and their marriages may 9 end
