11、signed mainly for students. University accommodation（住所） offices Many university accommodation offices have their own list of registered landlords (房东). Others also provide information on accommodation agencies and other housing organizations. The advantage of using your university accommodation off
12、ice is that you can get some support if you have a problem. The disadvantage is that they are unlikely to have enough registered landlords to house all their students. Property papers: Loot and Renting Loot is an important source (来源) of information about private housing for co-renters. The offers a
13、re from private landlords, agencies and individuals looking for other co-renters. They also have a website: www. loot. com. The advantage of using Loot is that there are some excellent bargains. The disadvantage is that there is no quality control over the offers. Renting is another useful paper. Th
14、e offers in this paper are mainly from accommodation agencies. Their website is at www. Renting.co. uk. Accommodation agencies The majority of rented accommodation in London is probably advertised through accommodation agencies. The advantage of using accommodation agencies is that you will have acc
15、ess to a large number of accommodations. A good agent will listen to your requirements and can save you time in looking for the right accommodation. The disadvantage is that they will make a range of charges to potential renters. Noticeboards Around the universities you will find a number of noticeb
16、oards where offers of accommodation will be posted. These will either be from landlords or from students. Some universities will also have online noticeboards where students can advertise to other students. Advertisements from students can be an excellent way to find accommodation. However, advertis
17、ements from landlords can be problematic. Word of mouth Some of the best housing in London is never advertised but is passed on from one group of students to another by word of mouth.

21、rd to believe that scientists have had very little idea why cold weather helps germs to spread. Worldwide, up to five million people catch the illness each flu season, and around a quarter of a million die from it. Part of its power comes from the fact that the virus changes so quickly that the body
22、 is hardly prepared. “The antibodies weve built up no longer recognize the virus so we lose our immunity,” says Jane Metz at the University of Bristol. It also makes it harder to develop effective vaccines, and even if one comes out, governments often fail to persuade enough people to take it up. Th
23、e hope is that by understanding better why flu spreads in winter, but naturally fades in summer, doctors could find simple measures to stop its spread. Previous theories had centred on our behaviour. We spend more time indoors in the winter, meaning that were in closer contact with other people who
24、may be carrying germs. Another popular idea concerned our physiology(生理机制）: the cold weather weakens your bodys defenses against infection. In winter, without much sunlight, we may run low on Vitamin D, which helps power the bodys immune system. Moreover, when we breathe in cold air, the blood vesse
25、ls in our nose shrink, which affects the normal function of white blood cells, allowing viruses to slip past our defenses unnoticed. While such factors both play some role, analyses suggested another ignored cause may have been lying invisible in the air that we breathe. Thanks to the laws of thermo
26、dynamics （空气热力学） , cold air can carry less water vapor before it reaches the “dew point” and falls as rain. So while the weather outside may seem wetter, the air itself is drier as it loses the moisture. And researches in the past few years has shown that these dry conditions seem to offer the perfe
27、ct environment for the flu virus to flourish. In wetter air, the epidemic struggles to build strength, while in drier conditions it spreads like wildfire. And comparing 30 yearsclimate records with health records, Jeffrey Shaman at Columbia University found that flu epidemics almost always followed
28、a drop in air humidity. 24. What can we infer from the second paragraph ? A. We lose immunity due to the absence of our antibodies. B. The antibodies fail to function due to variation of virus. C. Government should come up with better ways to persuade people. 6 D. One in four of the infected die fro
29、m the influenza each flu season. 25. What is the purpose of understanding better why flu spreads in winter? A. To help develop effective vaccine. B.To seek ways to treat people infected with flu. C. To figure out ways to cut off its transmission. D. To explore how to defend our immune system. 26. In
30、 what weather condition a flu epidemic is more likely to occur ? A. Destroying bodiesimmune system. B. Powering our bodiesimmune system. C. Killing numerous viruses that we take in. D.

In Asia, some of the worlds largest river
32、s flow from the highest mountain ranges to vast floodplains below and finally into the ocean. Like veins these rivers connect the rocks in the mountains to the sediment (沉淀物) at the bottom of the ocean and give life to everything in between. While many nutrients are essential to the survival of life
33、, there is one element transported by water in rivers that holds the key to life and to the future of our planet carbon. Carbon is everywhere and understanding the way it moves and is either released or stored by the Earth system is a complex science in itself. Carbon starts its journey downstream w
34、hen natural acid rain, which contains dissolved (溶解) carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, dissolves minerals in rocks. This helps transform carbon dioxide to bicarbonate (碳酸氢盐) in the water that then flows in our rivers. This is a very long process, which is one of the main ways carbon dioxide is rem
35、oved from the atmosphere. Carbon is transported by rivers to oceans and once that carbon reaches the ocean, it is stored naturally in deep sea sediments for millions of years. As carbon travels down a river, different processes may impact whether it continues to flow downstream or whether it is rele
36、ased into the atmosphere. For example, human engineering, like extensive dam construction, will result in dramatic changes to how water and sediments travel down the river. Some carbon that fails to reach the sea may return to the atmosphere in some way, which causes more warming. Earths climate is
37、closely related to the carbon cycle. We all know about the essential role of plants in consuming carbon dioxide, but do we know enough about rivers? Changing the chemistry and the course of rivers may have significant impacts on how they transport carbon. Remember: wherever we live, we all live down
38、stream. 7 28. Where is the carbon in rivers originally from? A. The atmosphere.B. The rocks. C. The acid rain.D. The upstream areas. 29. Why is human engineering mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. To show how important to life carbon is. B. To explain how necessary it is to build dams. C. To show how a na
39、tural process is interrupted. D. To explain how humans fight global warming. 30. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph? A. Wed better move upstream to live. B. We should protect plants along rivers. C. Wed better seek more help from plants. D. We should be cautious about river ma

41、followed nearly 600 students from 12 schools in New Haven. In schools with improved nutrition policies and programs, students had healthier BMI (body mass index) over time. By the end of the study they reported healthier behaviors than their peers in schools without the nutrition policies and progra
42、ms. Students in schools with support for improved nutrition policies had an increase in BMI of less than 1%. However, the BMI of students in schools without improved support for these policies and programs increased 3% to 4% . “These findings can provide guidance for schools and communities. Childho
43、od obesity(肥胖）is a serious health threat, and schools are a vital way to reach children and their families to reduce risks and promote health,“ said lead author Jeannette Ickovics. The study is one of the first school-based policy guidance studies that followed students through middle school. “This
44、is some of the most persuasive evidence we have to date that strongly proved that nutrition education and promoting healthy eating behaviors in the classroom and cafeteria can have a meaningful impact on childrens health,“ said Marlene Schwartz, director of the Rudd Center and senior study author. T
45、he nutritional guidance in the schools studied included ensuring that all school-based meals met nutritional criteria; providing nutritional directions for students and their families; school-wide campaigns to limit sugary drinks and encourage the use of water; and limiting the use of food or drinks
46、 as rewards for 8 academic performance or good behavior. In the study authors said that more than one in five American teenagers are currently obese, and as many as one in two are overweight or obese. Being overweight or obese early in life affects health across the lifespan(寿命） ,contributing to a r
