How do you live to 100? Here 4 of the countrys centenarians (百岁老人) give their advice on staying youthful.Francisco Nunez, 112He is from Bienvenida, Badajoz, southern Spain. Nunez lives with his daughter. He says he doesnt like the pensioners (领养老金的人) daycare center because its full of old people, whose negative attitude towards life affects him deeply sometimes. Despite his old age. he has always maintained (保持) a youthful outlook, and that is what has kept him going on.Pedro Rodriguez, 106He lives in Cangas de Onis, Asturias, northern Spain. Rodriguez plays the piano every day in the living room of the flat where he lives with his wife who is nearly 20 years younger than him. Their daughters visit them often. His hobby is something that he feels has kept him young. “The nuns (修女) taught me how to play the piano as a child,” he says.Maximino San Miguel, 102He lives in Leon, northern Spain. San Miguel discovered his passion (酷爱) for amateur dramatics at the age of 80 and has participated in many local productions. He didnt go to school as a child because he was sent to work as a shepherd (牧羊人). He prefers reading books about drawing and travelling. Now this hobby, he said, has kept him full of energy.Pilar Fernandez, 101She lives with her daughter Pili, granddaughters Flori and Ana in Ambas, Asturias, northern Spain. Fernandez suffered hunger and hardship during the war years alongside her nine brothers and sisters. To avoid history repeating itself, she limited herself to just one child. “From pure fear, I didnt have anymore,” says Fernandez.

There are some advantages of watching movies. Comedies, for example, help reduce your blood pressure. Laughter for 15 minutes during a film makes your blood vessels (血管) wider. Besides, when you watch a sad movie, youre more likely to come away from it thinking about loved ones and feeling happy about what you have.Watching movies can make you creative. A study shows that young children, who watched the use of magic in Harry Potter, score significantly higher in a creative thinking test than children who watched something else. Moreover, movies are very useful for strengthening peoples mental health. They enable people to take time to really relax and temporarily forget about their daily concerns and problems.However, watching movies arent always beneficial. Studies have shown that some people get real pleasure out of being scared by horror movies, but in various ways they may be risking their physical and mental health without even knowing it. When you watch a tense scene in a movie, your heart rate and blood pressure increase. Meanwhile this change in your brain chemistry reminds you of times when you were in a similar state, even if you have no idea you even had those memories. So if something horrible happens to you, being scared again by a movie can unintentionally make you experience it once more.Scientists, politicians and parents have debated for decades if being exposed to movie violence leads to actual real-life violence. Overall the answer to that is probably still up in the air, but a new study seems to prove that watching aggression on screen can contribute to being a bully (土霸) in real life, even if it is just in the short term.In conclusion, certain movies play a positive role, but not all movies do. It depends completely on the subject of the movie. So its always advisable to choose the movies concerning something positive.1、How does watching sad movies benefit us according to the text?AIt makes us content with our lives.BIt rids us of unhappy memories.CIt reduces our risk of illness.DIt develops our creativity.2、What can we infer about watching horror movies from the text?AIt has more advantages than disadvantages.BIt has gained popularity around the world.CPlenty of people ignore its health benefits.DAll people dont realize its disadvantages.3、What does the underlined part “up in the air” in Paragraph 4 mean?AMeaningless. BAttractive.CUncertain. DObvious.4、What does the author advise us to do to reduce the passive effect of movies?AEnjoy movies with more companions.BMake a wise choice of what to watch.CTry our best to watch movies less often.DRaise our ability to tell right from wrong.23（8分）If you are hungry,what do you do?Grab a piece of your favorite meal and stay quiet after that?Just like your stomach,even your mind is hungry.But it never lets you know,because you keep it busy thinking about your dream lover,favorite star and many such absurd things.So it silently began to pay careful attention to your needs and never let itself grow.When mind loosens its freedom to grow,creativity gets a full stop.This might be the reason why we all sometimes think “What happens next?”,“Why cant I think?”,“Why am I always given the difficult problems?”Well this is the result of our own karma（宿命）of using our brain for thinking of not-so-worthy things.Hunger of the mind can be actually settled through extensive reading.Now why reading and not watching TV? Because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from the childhood.Just like that to develop other aspects of our life,we have to take help of reading.You have innumerable number of books in this world which will answer all your How to? questions.Once you read a book,you just dont run your eyes through the lines,but even your mind decodes（解码）it and explains it to you.The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed.Now this seed is unknowingly used by you in your future to develop new ideas.The same seed if used many times,can help you link and relate a lot of things,of which you would have never thought of in your wildest dreams! This is nothing lout creativity.The more the number of books you read,the more your mind will open up.Also this improves your speaking skills to a large extent and also makes a significant contribution to your vocabulary.Within no time you start speaking English or any language fluently with your friends or other people and you never seem to run out of the right words at the right time.1、What does the author mean by saying that our mind is hungry?AWe dont read books. BOur creativity gets a full stop.CWe dont have a good memory.

Oh, the satisfaction in our young heartsa green elephant tie!With his glasses at the tip of his nose, he greeted us cheerfully, “Good morning, folks!” He was strange and unique and he brightened every day for us. He was the most dynamic teacher I had ever met.I loved music, so I remember how excited I was when he said he was going to give us music lessons. But when he turned on the music, my classmates and I slowly turned our heads toward the sound of Feter Paul and Mary singing “If I Had a Hammer”.Snickers(窃笑) filled the room. If it wasnt rap or hip hop, we didnt recognize it. What were these people singing about? My classmates were not into this at all. But for me, a girl of 12, it was a discovery. An awakening.Twenty years passed and now there are forty little eyes staring at my wild musical-note shirts as I greet them with a joyful, “Good morning, class!” I wonder if my students wait and wonder what crazy music clothes I will wear each day.I glance at my 2015 Teacher of the Year Award, which I received for being a dynamic teacher. And I smile to myself, wondering which child in front of me will carry this onas Ive carried on the legacy(遗产) of Mr. Miller.One teacher, who dared to be different and open new worlds to kids like me, threw the significant stone into the pond of my life. I pray the ripples(涟漪) never end.1、What can we infer about Mr. Miller?AHe was an animal protector.BHe didnt take his work ser
