I ran into a stranger as he passed by, and I at once apologized to him. We were both very _36_, he stranger and I. Then we went    37  our way after saying good-bye.
But at home a   38  story is told. Later that day, when I 39  supper in the kitchen, my daughter suddenly stood behind me very   40 . When I turned back, I     41  knocked her down. “Don’t be in my   42   !” I shouted angrily. She walked away with her little heart     43 .On the kitchen floor later, I found some flowers by the door.
That night, while I lay     44  in bed, a voice in my deep heart said, “While 45  with a stranger, you are so polite, but with the children you love, you are so easily _46   .Why are there some flowers by the door? Those are the flowers she brought for you. She    47 them herself, pink, yellow and your favorite blue. She stood quietly in order to give you a    48 , and you never saw the         49  in her eyes.”
By this time, I felt very       50  and now my tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt (跪下) by her __51__, “Wake up, little girl, wake up,” I said, “Are these the flowers you picked for me?” She smiled, “Yes, because I knew you’d like them, especially the  52_  .” I said, “Daughter, I’m sorry for the way I acted today; I       53  have shouted at you that way.”
She said, “Oh, Mom, that’s okay. I love you 54 .” I hugged her and said, “Daughter, I love you too, and I do like the flowers.”
Through this    55 , I realize what FAMILY means:

Anger is good for you, as long as you control it, according to new psychology research. A new study from Carnegie Mellon University shows anger may help people reduce the negative impacts of stress and help you become healthier.
“Here getting emotional is not bad for you if you look at the case of anger,” said Jennifer Lerner of Carnegie Mellon. “The more people display anger, the lower their stress responses.”
Lerner studied 92 UCLA students by asking them to count back from 6,200. They must say out loud every thirteenth number. Researchers disturbed them by asking them to count faster or ask them other questions. If they made any mistakes, they had to restart from the very beginning. Many students felt depressed about making so many mistakes or got angry.
Lerner used a hidden video camera and recorded all their facial expressions during the test. The researchers describe their reactions as fear, anger and disgust.
Other researchers recorded the students’ blood pressure, pulse and production of a high-stress hormone（荷爾蒙）called cortisol. People whose faces showed more fear during the experiment had higher blood pressure and higher levels of the hormone. Both can have lasting effects such as diabetes（糖尿�。�, heart disease, depression and extra weight gain.
When people feel fear, negative impacts increase, but when they get angry, those negatives go down, according to the study.
“Having that sense of anger leads people to actually feel some power in what otherwise is a maddening（令人發(fā)狂的）situation,” Lerner said.
Lerner previously studied Americans’ emotional response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks two months after the incident. She found people who reacted with anger were more optimistic. These people are healthier compared with those who were frightened during the event. So in maddening situations, anger is not a bad thing to have. It’s a healthier response than fear.
小題1: What is the story mainly about?
A．The findings of new psychology research.
B．What you can do with anger in certain cases.
C．Different effects produced by anger and fear.
D．Healthier responses in maddening situations.
小題2:Which statement will Jennifer Lerner agree with?
A．It’s better to be angry than to be frightened.
B．Different reactions reflect different outlooks on life.
C．Don’t control your anger and it makes you powerful.
D．Pessimistic people are generally healthier than optimistic people.
小題3:What does the underlined word “both” refer to according to the passage?
A．Fear and anger.B．Blood pressure and pulse.
C．Blood pressure and cortiso1.
D．Higher blood pressure and higher levels of the hormone.
小題4: In what ways can anger be beneficial to people?
A．By showing their optimistic side.B．By reducing their stress.
C．By reducing high blood pressure.D．By taking the place of fear.
小題5:The researchers irritated（激怒）the students by __________.
A．recording their performance secretly
B．a(chǎn)sking them to count to 6, 200 again and again
C．disturbing them and making them start all over again
D．criticizing them when they made mistakes

Women who want to succeed at work should resist the temptation to act like men, scientists have said. Studies show that ambitious women are often less likely to get ahead than those who show more female characteristics. However, if they try to adapt, promotion comes their way. The findings, which will let assertive (過(guò)分自信的) women down, suggest that the best way for a woman to succeed in a man’s world is to act like a lady.
Past research has shown that women with self-confidence and other characteristics linked with successful management can be put aside at work in favor of gentle types. It is thought that while such characteristics are highly praised in men, ambitious women are penalized for not being feminine enough. Instead of being seen as strong managers, ambitious women are in an unfavorable situation.
In one US study, researchers explored personal details from university students applying for a summer job at a bank. A women applicant who attempted to apply for special wages to pay her transport or living costs was three and a half times less likely to get a job offer than a similar male. In fact, this kind of woman was the least likely to get taken on.
The latest study set out to explore what women who are naturally assertive could do to get ahead in the workplace. Eighty young men and women completed surveys about their personality while studying in college. Around eight years later, the researchers got back in touch with them to find out how their careers were going. Some had been promoted five times, others just once or twice. The results showed that ambitious women who stick to their decisions had been promoted less than more feminine groups. But the ambitious women who made a conscious effort to not appear to be threatening by “self-controlling” their behavior had done better than those who had carried on ignoring others’ views.
小題1: What does the underlined word “penalized” mean in the second paragraph?
A．Treated badlyB．Asked to leave
C．Looked down uponD．Made sb. have a disadvantage
小題2:According to the passage, if an ambitious woman and a similar man both ask the company for an extra payment, ______.
A．the woman is less likely to be accepted
B．the woman will work harder if she gets the payment
C．the man can make a good impression on the boss
D．they can be both accepted if they use proper words
小題3:The ambitious women in the latest study ______.
A．had been promoted only once or twice
B．tried hard to be as successful as gentle types
C．were more accepted at work after they controlled their behavior
D．filled in the surveys after they graduated from college
小題4:What can we learn from the passage?
A．Successful management is highly praised in women.
B．Some women will be disappointed by the massage.
C．Men acting like a lady are likely to be promoted at work.
D．The latest study was aimed at how to become a successful boss.
小題5:What’s the main idea of the passage?
A．How assertive women can control their behavior.
B．Feminists can do better by controlling their behavior.
C．Acting like a man won’t get women promoted at work.
D．How the ambitious women can avoid acting like men.

Sometimes it is easy to get carried away with the eagerness to win and forget about the things in everyday life which are important.小題2:          Education is the tool to succeeding in life and a person’s greatest accomplishments(成就) start with good education.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

I was working with a client who was completely burned out on her career and life and then ready for a career change. As we were talking, she said, “I just wish I had meaningful work. I don’t feel like I am making a difference. I am just wasting my life.” This is the theme I hear most often from clients who have been in the workforce awhile.All of us want to feel like we are making a difference. We want to believe our work means something. The problem comes in defining “meaningful work”. What is it? That answer is different for everyone. For some meaningful work might be helping others organize their office. For others it may mean making a million dollars.
What really matters is how you see it. What is meaningful work to you? Take out a piece of paper and answer these questions. How do you define meaningful work? When do you feel like you are really making a difference? What work have you done so far that feels the most meaningful? Write down whatever comes to mind.
What you want to do is meaningful. It is very easy to start judging yourself as being selfish. Stop! Allow yourself to be honest. The fact is when Picasso painted; he was doing it because he liked to paint. He was not thinking, “Oh, I hope this brings joy to others’ lives.” He painted because he wanted to. When Beethoven composed, he did it because he loved music. Even scientists searching for a cure for cancer are immersed in their work because it fascinates them.
Don’t look down on your work. It is easy to downplay the importance of work that feels meaningful. I remember Tony Robbins told a story of talking with the owner of a major company. The man said to Tony, “I wish I could do what you do because it makes such adifference in people’s lives”. Tony said, “You have got to be kidding! Look at what adifference you make. You provide work, health insurance and security for thousands ofpeople!” Don’t underestimate the value you provide.
Take a look at what you have written about meaningful work. Do you see any themes? How do you wish to contribute to this world? Whatever you choose, remember that the greatest gift you can give is to find work that makes you feel fulfilled and delighted. Respect your preference because giving your gifts to the world, whatever they look like, is the most meaningful action you can ever take.
小題1:. What does the writer mean by mentioning the famous people?
A．Famous people are selfish to start work for themselves.
B．Doing meaningful work requires our interest in it.
C．Interest is the best teacher in learning.
D．Honesty makes for the greatest people.
小題2:. When you downplay the value of your work, you tend to think it is ______.
A．quite differentB．very successfulC．not meaningfulD．less important
小題3:.According to the passage, what meaningful job does the writer advise us to take?
A．The one which is popular in society.
B．The one which brings you profits.
C．The one which wins you fame.
D．The one which interests you.
小題4:. The article is intended to ________.
A．explain what is the most important in changing one’s job
B．a(chǎn)dvise taking an immediate action to find meaningful work
C．suggest we should show confidence and talent in work
D．tell us the problem that the author’s client met

I hated dinner parties. But I decided to give them another shot because I'm in London. And my friend Mallery invited me. And because dinner parties in London are very different from those back in New York. There, “I’m having a dinner party” means: "I'm booking a table for 12 at a restaurant you can't afford and we'll be sharing the checque evenly, no matter what you eat." Worse, in Manhattan there is always someone who leaves before the bill arrives. They'll throw down cash, half of what they owe, and then people like me, who don’t drink, end up paying even more. But if I try to use the same trick, the hostess will shout: "Where are you going?" And it's not like I can say I have somewhere to go: everyone know I have nowhere to go.
But in London, dinner parties are in people's homes. Not only that, the guests are an interesting mix. The last time I went to one, the guests were from France, India. Denmark and Nigeria; it was like a gathering at the United Nations in New York. The mix is less striking. It's like a gathering at Bloomingdale's, a well-known department store.
For New Yorkers, talking about other parts of the world means Brooklyn and Queens in New York. But at Mallery's, when I said that I had been to Myanmar recently, people knew where it was. In New York people would think it was a usual new club.
小題1:What does the word "shot" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A．Choice.B．TryC．Style.D．Goal
小題2:What does the writer dislike most about dinner parties in New York?
A There is a strange mix of people.       B. The restaurants are expensive.
C. The bill is not fairly shared.        D. People have to pay cash
小題3:What does the author think of the parties in London?
A．A bit unusualB．Full of tricks.
C．Less costly.D．More interesting.
小題4: What is the author's opinion of some New Yorkers from her experience？
A．Easy-going.B．Self-centred.C． Generous.D．Conservative.
