Fly like superman!
Have you ever imagined how it feels when fresh air is in your face Or to see the beauty of nature from the top You can do it in a hot air balloon ride.
Hot air ballooning is the activity of flying in a basket hanging over a hot air balloon. Attractive parts of ballooning include the unusual quiet, the lack of a feeling of movement, and the bird’s-eye view. Since the balloon moves with the direction of the winds, the passengers feel absolutely no wind, except for brief periods during the flight when the balloon climbs or falls into air currents of different directions or speeds. Hot air ballooning has been recognized by the World Aeronautical Federation(WAF)as the safest air sport, and accidents seldom happen. However, you must follow some rules such as:
* You have to respect the limit of passengers allowed in the ride. A catlán has drawn new attention to the danger of ballooning. Four years ago, 1 1 people were injured and 2 were killed when their hot air balloon basket struck in line and caught fire.
*The pilot must check the weather and select a suitable take-off point. The current and forecast weather must have good visibility for the pilot to see, and slow winds to allow take-off and landing.
* Children aged under twelve have to be with their parents all the tour.
* Pilots must not carry passengers who have participated in scuba dive (蛙潜) the day before.
There are many regular (定期) gatherings of balloons and balloonists in Hidalgo around the year, which provide both a place for balloonists to interact as well as a place for visitors to entertain. You must try this activity at least once in a lifetime.
1. What is an attraction of hot air ballooning
A. Hearing the sound of the wind. B. Enjoying a breathtaking view.
C. Experiencing different weather. D. Having a feeling of movement.
2. What can we learn from the rules of hot air ballooning
A. 13 passengers are allowed on board at most.
B. It allows take-off or landing in strong winds.
C. A person aged 12 and older can ride alone.
D. Any scuba divers are allowed as passengers.
3. What kind of text is it
A. A news report. B. A scientific research.

Working for a big company in London on a salary (薪水)of over 100,000, you might expect Grayden Reece-Smith to have a luxurious (奢侈)lifestyle, going on expensive holidays or driving a sports car around south London, where he lives. In fact, the 28-year-old lives a very different existence from his colleagues. He gives away everything he earns over 42,000–a figure that he thought he could comfortably live on.
Over the past five years, Reece-Smith has handed over more than 250,000 to organizations such as International Care Ministries, which helps poor families in the Philippines, and the Against Malaria Foundation. He is part of a growing number of young professionals described as “effective altruists”. Effective altruists typically donate regularly to a charity which they think will have a great impact (影响). Some change careers to make more money, which can then be given away.
Reece-Smith considered working in the charity sector after graduating from university but thought that he could make a bigger difference by donating a large part of his salary. He had volunteered as a teacher at a school in Tanzania, but then realized that earning and giving would be more effective. “The cost of my flights there could have paid the salaries of two teachers for an entire year,” he says. Instead, he could “stay at home, living a nice life and still make a huge difference in the world”.
He is not mean with money-last year he went to Cuba on holiday, and spent several thousand pounds on a new sofa. But his lifestyle isn’t as luxurious as some of the people he works with. “I usually don’t buy supermarket-branded food products, but I don’t own a car. Other people on my salary might have a bigger house. Some of my colleagues have four-bedroom houses, but we only bought what we needed-a two-bedroom flat. 42,000 is more than enough to live on and still save,” he says.
4. How much money does Grayden spend on donation every year
A. Less than 42,000. B. Over 100.000.
C. 50,000. D. Any income over 42,000.
5. What may an “effective altruist” do according to the text
A. Donate to impactful charities. B. Make more money to enjoy lives.
C. Create a good public image. D. Enter a teaching profession.
6. Why did Grayden decide to donate money but not work in the charity sector
A. To access his inner life. B. To create a stronger effect.
C. To give away all of his salary. D. To be a teacher at a school.
7. What can be inferred about Grayden from the text
A. He leads an expensive lifestyle. B. He buys food produced by supermarkets.
C. He lives in a four-bedroom house. D. He balances his life and donation.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述Grayden Reece-Smith每年除了留下 42,000薪水生活外,会把剩余的薪水捐给慈善机构。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第一段“He gives away everything he earns over 42,000–a figure that he thought he could comfortably live on.(他捐出了他收入超过4.2万英镑的一切——他认为4.2万英镑已经可以让他过上舒适的生活。)”可知,Grayden会捐赠出任何超过42000英镑的收入。故选D项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第二段“He is part of a growing number of young professionals described as ‘effective altruists’. Effective altruists typically donate regularly to a charity which they think will have a great impact (影响). (他是越来越多被称为‘有效利他主义者’的年轻专业人士中的一员。有效的利他主义者通常会定期向他们认为会产生巨大影响的慈善机构捐款。)”可知,利他主义者会向有影响力的慈善机构捐款。故选A项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第三段“Reece-Smith considered working in the charity sector after graduating from university, but thought that he could make a bigger difference by donating a large part of his salary. (Reece Smith大学毕业后曾考虑在慈善部门工作,但他认为自己可以通过捐出大部分工资来做出更大的改变。)”可知, Grayden认为捐款会产生更大的效果。故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。由文章最后一段“I usually don’t buy supermarket-branded food products, but I don’t own a car. Other people on my salary might have a bigger house. Some of my colleagues have four-bedroom houses, but we only bought what we needed-a two-bedroom flat. 42,000 is more than enough to live on and still save,(我通常不买超市品牌的食品,但我没有汽车。其他拿我薪水的人可能会有更大的房子。我的一些同事有四居室的房子,但我们只买了我们需要的——一套两居室的公寓。42000英镑已经足够生活和储蓄了)”可知,Grayden能很好的平衡自己的生活和捐赠。故选D项。

In the past few weeks, Richard Eckersley has noticed a change in the type of people who come into his shop. In 2017, the former Manchester United footballer set up Earth. Food. Love in Tones, Devon, with his wife, Nicola. It’s the UK’s first “zero waste” store—the food is in big jars and boxes and people bring their own containers. “A lot of new people are coming in-people who have not necessarily been interested in environmental issues before”, he says.
Recently, the government called for supermarkets to introduce plastic-free passageways. But Eckersley says many customers are already way ahead of politicians. He and Nicola have helped people set up similar stores in Wales, Birmingham, and Bristol. Ingrid Caldironi had a similar idea. She set up a plastic-free shop in London last year, which has been so popular that it is soon moving to a bigger site.
Eckersley and Caldironi are members of an anti-plastics movement in the UK that has been growing as a result of the BBC’s Blue Planet series and a general worry about the damage plastic is doing to the environment. But big supermarkets have so far not tried very hard to reduce their plastic waste. Sian Sutherland, founder of the movement “A Plastic Planet”, says, “The most exciting thing is that politicians and industry are no longer saying that recycling will solve the problem. Banning the use of plastic packaging for food and drink products is the only answer.” Walking down the passageways of the supermarket where everything from pizza to fresh fruit and vegetables is covered in plastic. Sutherland says immediate action is needed.
Plastic pollution is causing widespread global damage. More than one million plastic bottles are bought around the world every minute, and most end up in landfill or the sea. The contamination is so wide that tap water around the world also contains plastic.
8. What is special about Earth. Food. Love
A. It gives away boxes of food. B. It is a store without plastic bags.
C. It has few new customers. D. It is the UK’s first supermarket.
9. What caused Caldironi’s shop to be relocated to a larger place
A. Its popularity. B. Its products. C. Its profits. D. Its similarity.
10. What does the underlined word “contamination” in last paragraph mean
A. Pollution. B. Acceptance. C. Influence. D. Application.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. The impact of BBC’s Blue Planet series on anti-plastics movements.
B. Rising anti-plastics movement alongside increasing environmental concerns.
C. A guide to setting up plastic-free stores to promote recycling in the whole UK.
D Richard Eckersley’s personal journey in waste reduction and pollution prevention.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章以没有塑料袋的商店Earth. Food. Love为例,说明了政府和个人都在关注塑料污染问题,提倡减少使用塑料。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“It’s the UK’s first “zero waste” store—the food is in big jars and boxes and people bring their own containers.(这是英国第一家“零浪费”商店——食物装在大罐子和盒子里,人们自己带着容器)”以及第二段“She set up a plastic-free shop in London last year, which has been so popular that it is soon moving to a bigger site. (去年,她在伦敦开了一家无塑料商店,这家商店非常受欢迎,很快就会搬到更大的地方)”可知,Earth. Food. Love的特别之处是一家没有塑料袋的商店。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“She set up a plastic-free shop in London last year, which has been so popular that it is soon moving to a bigger site. (去年,她在伦敦开了一家无塑料商店,这家商店非常受欢迎,很快就会搬到更大的地方)”可知,这家店的受欢迎程度让卡尔迪罗尼的店搬到了一个更大的地方。故选A。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Plastic pollution is causing widespread global damage. More than one million plastic bottles are bought around the world every minute, and most end up in landfill or the sea.(塑料污染正在造成广泛的全球破坏。世界各地每分钟售出100多万个塑料瓶,其中大多数最终被填埋或入海)”以及后文“is so wide that tap water around the world also contains plastic.”可知,塑料污染范围如此之广,以至于世界各地的自来水也含有塑料。故划线词意思是“污染”。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,并根据第二段“Recently, the government called for supermarkets to introduce plastic-free passageways. But Eckersley says many customers are already way ahead of politicians. He and Nicola have helped people set up similar stores in Wales, Birmingham, and Bristol.(最近,政府呼吁超市引入无塑料通道。但埃克斯利表示,许多消费者已经走在了政客的前面。他和尼古拉帮助人们在威尔士、伯明翰和布里斯托尔建立了类似的商店)”可知,文章以没有塑料袋的商店Earth. Food. Love为例,说明了政府和个人都在关注塑料污染问题,提倡减少使用塑料。由此可知,这篇文章的主要内容是反塑料运动的兴起以及对环境问题的日益关注。故选B。
D
Thousands of lives have been saved by giving blood-thinning drugs to people with a heart condition that leaves them at risk of a stroke(中风), according to the head of the NHS.
Since January 2022 about 460,000 people in England who suffer from atrial fibrillation(AF)- a dangerously irregular heart rate-have begun taking one of four anticoagulant(抗凝血剂) drugs that are proved to reduce stroke risk. Speedy introduction of the drugs has kept 4,000 people alive who would otherwise have died and prevented about 17,000 strokes, according to Amanda Pritchard. Strokes kill about 27,000 people a year in England and lead to about 120,000 being taken to hospital.
A drive to encourage take-up of the drugs means 90% of the 1.5 million people in England with AF are using them. That should result in fewer strokes, which are a leading cause of death and disability, given that AF causes about one in five strokes.
“The rapid introduction of these drugs is a big step forward in providing the best possible care for patients with heart disease”, Pritchard, the leader of NHS(National Health Service) England, will say in a speech today at the King’s Fund health experts’ yearly conference.
The drugs, called direct oral anticoagulants, help stop blood from clotting(凝血), therefore reducing the risk of a clot developing and causing a stroke. In 2021 the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence recommended that doctors use four anticoagulant drugs.
Dr Maeva May, the Stroke Association’s director, thought the widespread use of the drugs as “fantastic news”, because AF accounts for one in five strokes and strokes in people with AF are more likely to result in death or serious disability.
NHS England has used its spending power to cut deals with the makers of the four drugs, which has made them much more widely available. The British Heart Foundation praised the NHS’s “great progress towards its goal of reducing stroke deaths”.
12. What is the purpose of listing numbers in paragraph 2
A. To attract the readers’ attention to strokes.
B. To introduce the specific information about AF.
C. To show the effects of four anticoagulant drugs.
D. To summarize the steps towards reducing deaths.
13. What is the main function of anticoagulant drugs
A. To identify signs of strokes. B. To reduce blood pressure.
C. To keep heart beating. D. To prevent blood clotting.
14. What can be inferred about NHS England and drug makers from the text
A. They have reached some agreements. B. They have provided free treatment.
C. They have established disease funds. D. They have reminded of stroke deaths.
15. Which is the best title for the text
A. Recognising Signs of A Heart Attack B. A Breakthrough in Stroke Prevention
C. Exploring Kinds of Anticoagulant Drugs D. NHS England’s Life-Saving Conference
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是新闻报道。文章主要介绍英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS)负责人表示,通过给患有心脏病的人服用血液稀释药物,大大降低了房颤患者的中风可能导致的死亡或严重残疾,数千人的生命得以挽救。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Since January 2022 about 460,000 people in England who suffer from atrial fibrillation(AF)- a dangerously irregular heart rate-have begun taking one of four anticoagulant(抗凝血剂) drugs that are proved to reduce stroke risk. Speedy introduction of the drugs has kept 4,000 people alive who would otherwise have died and prevented about 17,000 strokes, according to Amanda Pritchard. Strokes kill about 27,000 people a year in England and lead to about 120,000 being taken to hospital. (自2022年1月以来,英国约有46万患有心房颤动(AF)的人开始服用四种抗凝药物中的一种,这些药物已被证明可以降低中风风险。据Amanda Pritchard称,这些药物的迅速引入使4000人得以存活,否则他们将死亡,并预防了约17000例中风。在英格兰,中风每年造成约2.7万人死亡,约12万人被送往医院。)”可知,这一段利用数字来说明四种抗凝血药物对心房颤动病人的效果。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“The drugs, called direct oral anticoagulants, help stop blood from clotting(凝血), therefore reducing the risk of a clot developing and causing a stroke. (这些药物被称为直接口服抗凝血剂,有助于阻止血液凝固,从而降低血栓形成和导致中风的风险。)”可知,抗凝血药物的主要作用是防止血液凝结。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“NHS England has used its spending power to cut deals with the makers of the four drugs (英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS England)利用其支出能力与这四种药物的制造商达成了协议)”可知,英国国家医疗服务体系和制药商他们已经达成了一些协议。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Thousands of lives have been saved by giving blood-thinning drugs to people with a heart condition that leaves them at risk of a stroke(中风), according to the head of the NHS. (英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS)负责人表示,通过给患有心脏病的人服用血液稀释药物,数千人的生命得以挽救,这些心脏病使他们有中风的风险。)”和最后一段“NHS England has used its spending power to cut deals with the makers of the four drugs, which has made them much more widely available. The British Heart Foundation praised the NHS’s “great progress towards its goal of reducing stroke deaths”. (英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS England)利用其支出能力与这四种药物的制造商达成了协议,这使它们的供应范围更加广泛。英国心脏基金会称赞英国国家医疗服务体系“在实现减少中风死亡的目标方面取得了巨大进展”。)”可知,文章主要介绍英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS)负责人表示,通过给患有心脏病的人服用血液稀释药物,大大降低了房颤患者的中风可能导致的死亡或严重残疾,数千人的生命得以挽救。所以B选项“预防中风的突破”和文章意思一致。故选B。

The little girl stuck her finger in mouth. Something felt different. When she touched her bottom teeth, one of them moved. Cali looked at her face in the bathroom mirror. Her teeth were all there, but that front one on the bottom looked funny. “Aunt Lisa!” she called. Cali lived with her aunt and uncle. “My tooth looks strange!”
Her aunt joined her and looked in her mouth. “Don’t worry,” said Aunt Lisa. “You have a loose tooth. That means you are growing up!”
“I don’t know if I like that,” said Cali. She loved the idea of growing up, but thinking about one of her teeth coming out make her feel a little anxious. “Then I will have a hole in my head.” That seemed strange.
Cali’s uncle walked by and stopped when he saw them. “Cali, my dear, you already have a few of those! Think about your ears and your nose and your mouth. One tiny baby tooth won’t make much difference. Do you want me to pull it out for you ” laughed Uncle George. “Then it would be gone in a flash! Maybe I should tie a string (细线) around it, tie the other end to the door and slam it ” he asked.
“That’s a terrible idea, Uncle George!” Cali yelled.
“What if we get our dog to play tug-of-war (拔河) with you, but you use your mouth like he does Then your tooth would pop out!” suggested her uncle.
“Maybe I’ll just leave it in for a while,” decided Cali. Having enough of her uncle’s crazy plans, she felt a little anxious about her loose tooth and she immediately ran to Aunt Lisa who was cutting up an apple into slices in the kitchen. The little girl picked up an apple slice and bit into it. It was sweet and juicy.

She curiously stuck her tongue in the spot where her tooth had been, and showed her aunt. “Cool! The tooth just falls out by itself.” she yelled out excitedly. Hearing something, Uncle George came into the kitchen, now holding a pair of pliers from his toolbox. “I’ve had another great idea,” he said with a broad smile on his face. “How about letting me use these and…” He stopped when he saw Cali grinning at him. “Too late, Uncle George!” she laughed. “It’s out!”

Fly like superman!
Have you ever imagined how it feels when fresh air is in your face Or to see the beauty of nature from the top You can do it in a hot air balloon ride.
Hot air ballooning is the activity of flying in a basket hanging over a hot air balloon. Attractive parts of ballooning include the unusual quiet, the lack of a feeling of movement, and the bird’s-eye view. Since the balloon moves with the direction of the winds, the passengers feel absolutely no wind, except for brief periods during the flight when the balloon climbs or falls into air currents of different directions or speeds. Hot air ballooning has been recognized by the World Aeronautical Federation(WAF)as the safest air sport, and accidents seldom happen. However, you must follow some rules such as:
* You have to respect the limit of passengers allowed in the ride. A catlán has drawn new attention to the danger of ballooning. Four years ago, 1 1 people were injured and 2 were killed when their hot air balloon basket struck in line and caught fire.
*The pilot must check the weather and select a suitable take-off point. The current and forecast weather must have good visibility for the pilot to see, and slow winds to allow take-off and landing.
* Children aged under twelve have to be with their parents all the tour.
* Pilots must not carry passengers who have participated in scuba dive (蛙潜) the day before.
There are many regular (定期) gatherings of balloons and balloonists in Hidalgo around the year, which provide both a place for balloonists to interact as well as a place for visitors to entertain. You must try this activity at least once in a lifetime.
1. What is an attraction of hot air ballooning
A. Hearing the sound of the wind. B. Enjoying a breathtaking view.
C. Experiencing different weather. D. Having a feeling of movement.
2. What can we learn from the rules of hot air ballooning
A. 13 passengers are allowed on board at most.
B. It allows take-off or landing in strong winds.
C. A person aged 12 and older can ride alone.
D. Any scuba divers are allowed as passengers.
3. What kind of text is it
A. A news report. B. A scientific research.
C. A travel guide. D. A technical document.

In fact, the 28-year-old lives a very different existence from his colleagues. He gives away everything he earns over 42,000–a figure that he thought he could comfortably live on.
Over the past five years, Reece-Smith has handed over more than 250,000 to organizations such as International Care Ministries, which helps poor families in the Philippines, and the Against Malaria Foundation. He is part of a growing number of young professionals described as “effective altruists”. Effective altruists typically donate regularly to a charity which they think will have a great impact (影响). Some change careers to make more money, which can then be given away.
Reece-Smith considered working in the charity sector after graduating from university, but thought that he could make a bigger difference by donating a large part of his salary. He had volunteered as a teacher at a school in Tanzania, but then realized that earning and giving would be more effective. “The cost of my flights there could have paid the salaries of two teachers for an entire year,” he says. Instead, he could “stay at home, living a nice life and still make a huge difference in the world”.
He is not mean with money-last year he went to Cuba on holiday, and spent several thousand pounds on a new sofa. But his lifestyle isn’t as luxurious as some of the people he works with. “I usually don’t buy supermarket-branded food products, but I don’t own a car. Other people on my salary might have a bigger house. Some of my colleagues have four-bedroom houses, but we only bought what we needed-a two-bedroom flat. 42,000 is more than enough to live on and still save,” he says.
4. How much money does Grayden spend on donation every year
A. Less than 42,000. B. Over 100.000.
C. 50,000. D. Any income over 42,000.

6. Why did Grayden decide to donate money but not work in the charity sector
A. To access his inner life. B. To create a stronger effect.
C. To give away all of his salary. D. To be a teacher at a school.
7. What can be inferred about Grayden from the text

C. He lives in a four-bedroom house. D. He balances his life and donation.

In the past few weeks, Richard Eckersley has noticed a change in the type of people who come into his shop. In 2017, the former Manchester United footballer set up Earth. Food. Love in Tones, Devon, with his wife, Nicola. It’s the UK’s first “zero waste” store—the food is in big jars and boxes and people bring their own containers. “A lot of new people are coming in-people who have not necessarily been interested in environmental issues before”, he says.
Recently, the government called for supermarkets to introduce plastic-free passageways. But Eckersley says many customers are already way ahead of politicians. He and Nicola have helped people set up similar stores in Wales, Birmingham, and Bristol. Ingrid Caldironi had a similar idea. She set up a plastic-free shop in London last year, which has been so popular that it is soon moving to a bigger site.
Eckersley and Caldironi are members of an anti-plastics movement in the UK that has been growing as a result of the BBC’s Blue Planet series and a general worry about the damage plastic is doing to the environment. But big supermarkets have so far not tried very hard to reduce their plastic waste. Sian Sutherland, founder of the movement “A Plastic Planet”, says, “The most exciting thing is that politicians and industry are no longer saying that recycling will solve the problem. Banning the use of plastic packaging for food and drink products is the only answer.” Walking down the passageways of the supermarket where everything from pizza to fresh fruit and vegetables is covered in plastic. Sutherland says immediate action is needed.
Plastic pollution is causing widespread global damage. More than one million plastic bottles are bought around the world every minute, and most end up in landfill or the sea. The contamination is so wide that tap water around the world also contains plastic.
8. What is special about Earth. Food. Love
A. It gives away boxes of food. B. It is a store without plastic bags.
C. It has few new customers. D. It is the UK’s first supermarket.
9. What caused Caldironi’s shop to be relocated to a larger place
A. Its popularity. B. Its products. C. Its profits. D. Its similarity.
10. What does the underlined word “contamination” in last paragraph mean
A. Pollution. B. Acceptance. C. Influence. D. Application.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. The impact of BBC’s Blue Planet series on anti-plastics movements.
B. Rising anti-plastics movement alongside increasing environmental concerns.
C. A guide to setting up plastic-free stores to promote recycling in the whole UK.
D. Richard Eckersley’s personal journey in waste reduction and pollution prevention.

Thousands of lives have been saved by giving blood-thinning drugs to people with a heart condition that leaves them at risk of a stroke(中风), according to the head of the NHS.
Since January 2022 about 460,000 people in England who suffer from atrial fibrillation(AF)- a dangerously irregular heart rate-have begun taking one of four anticoagulant(抗凝血剂) drugs that are proved to reduce stroke risk. Speedy introduction of the drugs has kept 4,000 people alive who would otherwise have died and prevented about 17,000 strokes, according to Amanda Pritchard. Strokes kill about 27,000 people a year in England and lead to about 120,000 being taken to hospital.
A drive to encourage take-up of the drugs means 90% of the 1.5 million people in England with AF are using them. That should result in fewer strokes, which are a leading cause of death and disability, given that AF causes about one in five strokes.
“The rapid introduction of these drugs is a big step forward in providing the best possible care for patients with heart disease”, Pritchard, the leader of NHS(National Health Service) England, will say in a speech today at the King’s Fund health experts’ yearly conference.
The drugs, called direct oral anticoagulants, help stop blood from clotting(凝血), therefore reducing the risk of a clot developing and causing a stroke. In 2021 the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence recommended that doctors use four anticoagulant drugs.
Dr Maeva May, the Stroke Association’s director, thought the widespread use of the drugs as “fantastic news”, because AF accounts for one in five strokes and strokes in people with AF are more likely to result in death or serious disability.
NHS England has used its spending power to cut deals with the makers of the four drugs, which has made them much more widely available. The British Heart Foundation praised the NHS’s “great progress towards its goal of reducing stroke deaths”.
12. What is the purpose of listing numbers in paragraph 2
A. To attract the readers’ attention to strokes.
B. To introduce the specific information about AF.
C. To show the effects of four anticoagulant drugs.
D. To summarize the steps towards reducing deaths.
13. What is the main function of anticoagulant drugs
A. To identify signs of strokes. B. To reduce blood pressure.
C. To keep heart beating. D. To prevent blood clotting.
14. What can be inferred about NHS England and drug makers from the text
A. They have reached some agreements. B. They have provided free treatment.
C. They have established disease funds. D. They have reminded of stroke deaths.
15. Which is the best title for the text
A. Recognising Signs of A Heart Attack B. A Breakthrough in Stroke Prevention
C. Exploring Kinds of Anticoagulant Drugs D. NHS England’s Life-Saving Conference

The little girl stuck her finger in mouth. Something felt different. When she touched her bottom teeth, one of them moved. Cali looked at her face in the bathroom mirror. Her teeth were all there, but that front one on the bottom looked funny. “Aunt Lisa!” she called. Cali lived with her aunt and uncle. “My tooth looks strange!”
Her aunt joined her and looked in her mouth. “Don’t worry,” said Aunt Lisa. “You have a loose tooth. That means you are growing up!”
“I don’t know if I like that,” said Cali. She loved the idea of growing up, but thinking about one of her teeth coming out make her feel a little anxious. “Then I will have a hole in my head.” That seemed strange.
Cali’s uncle walked by and stopped when he saw them. “Cali, my dear, you already have a few of those! Think about your ears and your nose and your mouth. One tiny baby tooth won’t make much difference. Do you want me to pull it out for you ” laughed Uncle George. “Then it would be gone in a flash! Maybe I should tie a string (细线) around it, tie the other end to the door and slam it ” he asked.
“That’s a terrible idea, Uncle George!” Cali yelled.
“What if we get our dog to play tug-of-war (拔河) with you, but you use your mouth like he does Then your tooth would pop out!” suggested her uncle.
“Maybe I’ll just leave it in for a while,” decided Cali. Having enough of her uncle’s crazy plans, she felt a little anxious about her loose tooth and she immediately ran to Aunt Lisa who was cutting up an apple into slices in the kitchen. The little girl picked up an apple slice and bit into it. It was sweet and juicy.
