Miles was born in Alton， a city on the Mississippi River in Illinois
on May 26， 1926. Miles father was a dentist， while his mother
was a music teacher. Miles had a good childhood， catching fish
and riding horses with his older sister and younger brother. He was
known as a naughty boy in school.
He recalls his story， “By the age of 12， music had become
the most important thing in my life.” His mother， a violinist
herself， dearly wanted her son to play the violin. But brass （铜管
乐器） was Miles calling， and he remembers arguments between
their parents as his dad overruled her to fight his sons corner. He
received his first trumpet （小号） in 1935 and began weekly music
lessons with his father’s friend Mr. Elwood， his life-long teacher.
Talking about his school days， Miles said that Mr. Buchanan
was the biggest influence on his life. Mr. Buchanan was the person
who took Miles all the way into music at that time. He wanted to be a
musician that he had dreamed.
When he was 16， Miles met his girlfriend， Irene Birth.
Although she was a beautiful young woman in many ways， it was
her easy-going character that attracted Miles. At the weekends，
Miles and Irene would take the bus over the Mississippi River to St.
Louis to watch movies and go dancing. Although Miles was too shyto really enjoy dancing， he always felt confident when he danced
with Irene.

In the depths of the French Guianese rainforest， there still
remain unusual groups of indigenous （土著的） people.
Surprisingly， these people live largely by their own laws and their
own social customs. And yet， people in this area are in fact French
citizens because it has been a colony of the French Republic since
1946. In theory， they should live by the French law. However，
their remote locations mean that the French law is often ignored（忽略） or unknown， thus making them into an interesting area
of “lawlessness” in the world.
The lives of these people have finally been recorded thanks to the
efforts of a Frenchman from Paris called Gin. Gin spent five months
in early 2015 exploring the most remote corners of this area， which
sits on the edge of the Amazon rainforest， with half its population
of only 250，000 living in its capital， Cayenne.
“I have a special love for the French Guianese people. I have
worked there on and off for almost ten years，” says Gin. “Ive
been able to keep firm friendships with them. Thus I have been
allowed to gain access to their living environment. I don’t see it as a
lawless land. But rather I see it as an area of freedom.”
“I wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching
upon the uncivilized life，” continues Gin. “I prefer to work in black
and white， which allows me to show different specific worlds more
clearly.”
His black-and-white pictures present a world almost lost in time.
These pictures show people seemingly pushed into a world that they
were unprepared for. These local citizens now have to balance their
traditional self-supporting hunting lifestyle with the lifestyle offered by
the modern French Republic， which brings with it not only
necessary state welfare （福利）， but also alcoholism， betrayal
and even suicide.
8. Why does the writer feel surprised about the indigenous people
in French Guiana？
A. They seldom follow the French law.
B. They often ignore the Guianese law.
C. They are separated from the modern world.
D. They are both Guianese and French citizens.
9. Gin introduces the special world of the indigenous Guianese
as ___ .
A. a tour guide B. a geographer
C. a film director D. a photographer
10. What is Gins attitude towards the lives of the indigenous
Guianese？
A. Cautious. B. Doubtful.C. Uninterested. D. Appreciative.
11. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer
to？
A. The modern French lifestyle.
B. The self-supporting hunting.
C. The uncivilized world.
D. The French Republic.

Sitting too much is linked to changes in a section of the brain that
is important for memory， according to a recent study by UCLA
researchers of middle-aged and older adults.
Studies show that too much sitting， like smoking， increases
the risk of heart disease， diabetes and premature death.
Researchers at UCLA want to see how sedentary behavior （sitting
for long periods of time） influences brain health， especially
regions of the brain that are important to memory formation.
UCLA researchers gathered 35 people aged 45 to 75 and asked
about their physical activity levels and the average number of hours
per day they spent sitting over the previous work. Each person had a
high-resolution MRI scan （扫描）， which provides a detailed look
at the medial temporal lobe， or MTL， a brain region involved in
the formation of new memories.
The researchers found that sedentary behavior is an important
predictor of thinning of the MTL and that physical activity， even at
high levels， is not enough to compensate the harmful effects of
sitting for long periods.
“This study does not prove that too much sitting causes thinner
brain structures， but instead that more hours spent sitting are
associated with thinner regions，” researchers said. In addition，
the researchers focused on the hours spent sitting， but did not ask
participants if they took breaks during this time.
The researchers next hope to follow a group of people for a
longer duration to determine if sitting causes the thinning and what
role gender （性别）， race， and weight might play in brain
health related to sitting.“MTL thinning can be an indication of cognitive （认知的）
decline in middle-aged and older adults. Reducing sedentary
behavior may be a possible target for measures designed to improve
brain health in people at risk for Alzheimer’s disease，”
researchers said.
12. Researchers carried out the study about sitting too much to
find out ___ .
A. what harm it causes
B. why it is like smoking
C. how it affects brain health
D. whether it causes early death
13. What’s the purpose of the high-resolution MRI scan on the
participants？
A. To examine their memory loss.
B. To examine their MTL conditions.
C. To record their physical activity levels.
D. To record the length of time for their sitting.
14. What do UCLA researchers think of their study？
A. It is a great success.
B. It must target the young.
C. It is of little practical value.
D. It still needs to be improved.
15. What can be the best title for the text？
A. How to Improve Brain Health
B. Long Sitting Is Bad for Your Brain
C. Sitting Causes Many Health Problems
D. An Easy Way to Prevent Memory Loss
二、阅读七选五
Time is something that we all are taking for granted these days.
We spend hours watching TV or playing video games， thinking
that this is just normal.
1 Every second is valuable and we should rethink of ways of
spending our time.
Firstly， spend time in doing things that really matter. Spend time
with your family and friends. Enjoy a nice hot meal and eat it slowly.Give yourself time to play and spend enough time in sleeping. 2
But the truth is that the little things matter most in life.
Secondly， you have to know what is done cannot be undone.
Do not allow your mind to stay in the past. 3 You have to keep
your eyes and ears open to the new opportunity. It may not be an
opportunity like an immediate get-rich chance， but it may be an
opportunity for new experiences.
4 If you have only one chance to do something for someone，
why not do it to the best of your ability？ It should not matter
whether you are being rewarded （回报） or not. You will take
pride in your work because you’ve done your best. Trust me，
quality efforts will be rewarded in time.
Lastly， every moment you spend in doing things is the time
taken from your life. Don’t waste your time away working day and
night just for money.
5 The value of your time is measured by how you spend it and
whom you choose to spend it with.
A. I find this a waste of time.
B. That is not your life’s worth.
C. Every day is a new adventure.
D. Little things like this may seem meaningless.
E. You will get what you want by working hard.
F. Do your best in every task as if the world will end tomorrow.
G. Spend more time on the important tasks instead of time-
wasters.

While volunteering in Tanzania， my wife and I got the idea of
what we call a “street library”. It is because children in our
neighborhood were able to read but had no 1 at all.
We had an idea to make books 2 to local children who wanted
to read. We 3 a famous international charity for collecting money.
We 4 books in three bookstores of the capital city. My wife Sue
5 all 180 books with sticky-backed paper to keep them clean. Alocal man made some boxes to 6 the books. I made some “library
cards” and 7 to a tailor called Saddiqi， who agreed to keep the
boxes in his shop and to 8 the library. The library was 9 to
open！
Anyone could 10 with their name and their parents mobile
phone number. Saddiqi gave them a 11 with a number， with
which they could read the books only in his shop. I decided it was
better to do that than let readers 12 the books away. There is no
13 to join the library. Within five days we had over 100 14 and
more were joining each day！ Even though the books are 15 for
children， in different grades of difficulty， 16 were using the
library for free， too.
This project was， I think， one of the most 17 things we did
in Tanzania. It was in some way a thank-you gift to our 18 for
welcoming us so warmly into their lives. The whole 19 worked
together on the street library and that’s surely part of the reason it is
still 20 after we left.
