[单项选择]The average person learns most of the 30000～40000 words whose meanings he or she recognizes by hearing them or getting familiar with them in the context or simply absorbing them without conscious effort. The best way to build a good vocabulary, therefore, is to read a great deal and to participate in a lot of good talks. There are relatively few words that we learn permanently by purposefully referring to dictionaries or keeping word lists.

Today, anyone with a digital camera and a PC can produce and alter an image. As a result, the power of the image has been diluted in one sense
A. we are exposed to a multitude of images every day.
B. consumer goods with images look more graceful.
C. the Internet can instantly present images of anything we want to buy.
D. Internet search engines give us undesired and shocking images.
[填空题]For most average exercisers and athletes, sports drinks are not only a waste of your money, but more importantly, can actually worsen the health of most who use them. Less than one percent of those who use sports drinks actually benefit from them. Most sports drinks are loaded with things you DON’T want, like refined sugars, artificial colors and chemicals, none of which are in natural coconut water, which is a clear, light, refreshing liquid (95 percent water) extracted from young, green coconuts that have not reached maturity.
If you exercise for 30 minutes a day at a moderate to high intensity, fresh, pure water is the best thing to help you stay hydrated.

If your electrolytes fall o
