9．When it comes to success in business and success in life，there are few qualities as important as confidence．
People naturally have different levels of confidence．Some have a higher level of confidence than others do，but even those whose confidence is lacking can leam to build their level of confidence and reach their most important goals．Increasing self confidence is one of the most common reasons people give for seeking the help of psychologists and other professionals．
One of the many places where a greater level of confidence is useful is in the workplace． We all know how difficult it can be，for instance，to ask the boss for a raise．This process can be extremely difficult for those who lack confidence in their own abilities．After all，if you are unsure about your own abilities，how will you ever convince your boss that you deserve more money for the work you do？
Even if you are not asking for that big raise，having plenty of confidence in your abilities is important to success．If you are certain of your abilities，chances are that those around you，whether they are your coworkers，your colleagues or your superiors，will see that confidence，and that will help to assure them that you are the best at what you do．
Being thought of as the person to go to，and being seen as an expert in your chosen field，is naturally very important to success on the job．If you can make yourself the person people go to for guidance and advice，you will help to protect yourself from the ever present danger of downsizing．After all，if you are a recognized expert at the office，you will be regarded as an indispensable member of the team．
Having a high level of confidence，after all，does not mean overlooking the places where you could improve．Knowing what you do well and where you need help will help you enjoy increased success and confidence．
63．What is the passage mainly about？B
A．The influence of confidence on one's life．

6．People are overweight for many reasons，the most important one of which is that they eat the wrong foods，get the wrong types of calories per meal，and they also eat meals at the wrong time each day．Food is more powerful than any weight loss pill，because the food that you eat can either make you thin or fat．This is true because your body is like an engine，and it only needs certain foods at certain intervals（間隔） each day．
Low-calorie Diets Do Not Work
The reason people cannot lose weight by starving themselves is that their metabolism（新陳代謝） will detect any major drop in calories and it will then adjust itself by burning fewer calories each day．That is the reason why you can eat 1，000 calories per day and not lose any weight，while your friends can eat 2，500 calories per day and not gain any weight．
Low-fat Diets Do Not Work
Many people in today's society are buying mostly low-fat or non-fat food at the grocery store．Everybody knows how much fat is inside the food they buy．However，people are getting fatter than ever before by doing this．They are not losing weight by changing to this low-fat lifestyle．
Losing weight has nothing to do with these things．One of the most important things you can do to control your weight is to eat the proper foods，such as fruit and vegetables，eat them at the right time，and exercise every d ay．If people make this a habit，they will lose weight．
25．What is the main reason why people are overweight？A
A．They eat the wrong foods at the wrong time．
B．They eat food with lots of calories．
C．They don't take weight loss pills．
D．They burn many calories every day．
26．The article is written in order toB．
A．tell readers not to buy low-fat or non-fat food．
B．tell readers how to lose weight．
C．tell readers about an important scientific discovery．
D．call on people to lose weight and stay healthy．

a．do exercise every day           b．eat meals at the right time

13．English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet．One in every seven human beings can speak it．More than half of the world's books and three quarters of international mails are in English．Of all languages，English has the largest vocabulary-perhaps as many as two million words．
   However，let's face it：English is a crazy language．There is no egg in an eggplant，neither pine nor apple in a pineap ple and no ham in a hamburger．Sweet-meats are candy，while sweetbreads，which aren't sweet，are meat．
   We take English for granted．But when we explore its paradoxes （矛盾），we find that quicksand can work slowly，boxing rings are square，public bathrooms have no baths in them．And why is it that a writer writes，but fingers don't fing，grocers don't groce，and hammers don't ham？If the plural （復(fù)數(shù)形式） of tooth is teeth，shouldn't the plural of booth be beeth？One goose，two geese-so one moose，two meese？How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same，while a wise man and a wise guyare opposites？How can overlook and oversee be opposites，while quite a lot and quite a few are alike？How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next？
English was invented by people，not computers，and it reflects the creativity of human beings．That's why，when stars are out，they are visible； but when the lights are out，they are invisible．And why，when I wind up my watch，I start it； but when I wind up this essay，I end it．
25．According to the passageB．
A．there should be eggs in an eggplant 
B．sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different
C．pineapples are the apples on the pine tree     
D．boxing rings should be round
26．What does the author use most to prove his idea？B
A．Plurals．B．Paradoxes．C．Comparisons．（比較）        D．Synonyms．（同義詞）
27．The underlined words"a wise guy"in paragraph 3 probably mean"D"．
A．somebody wise                    
B．a(chǎn) valuable chance
C．a(chǎn)n opposite word                     
D．a(chǎn) stupid person
28．The last paragraph is written to showB．
A．English is important                
B．a(chǎn) word may have several definitions
C．human beings are creative            
D．why people invented English．

3．China's new buzzword，tuhao，may be in nextyear's Oxford English Dictionary．
"If its influence continues，it is very likely to appear on our updated list of words，"said Julie Kleeman，project manager with the editing team．
In Chinese，tu means uncouth and hao means rich．It has traditionally been referred to rich people who throw their weight around in China's rural areas．In recent years，people borrowed the term to describe those who spend money in an irrational（沒道理的）manner．The word gained credence in September with the launch of Apple's new gold-colored iPhone，an item loved by China's rich people．The color became known as"tuhao gold．"The word is now often used by the online community to refer topeople who have the cash but lack the class to go with it．
Kleeman also mentioned two other Chinese words-dama and hukou-which may also be taken in the dictionary．Hukou means household registration in Chinese and has been widely used．
Dama，meaning middle-aged women，was first used in the Western media by the Wall Street Journal in May when thousands of Chinese women were buying up record number of gold．They were the driving force in the global gold market between April and June when the gold prices had slumped（下跌）．
"We have nearly 120 Chinese-linked words now in Oxford English Dictionary，"she said．Some of them are：Guanxi，literally meaning"connection"，is the system of social networks and influential relationships which facilitate business and other dealings．Taikonaut is a mix of taikong，meaning outer space，and astronaut．
The new words will be first uploaded on the official website before the dictionaries arrive．The online version is also renewed every three months．"It at least broke our old rules．It used to take 10 years to include a new word but now we keep the pace with the era，"according to John Simpson．
29．What does"Tuhao"mean now？D
A．The rich who like iPhone made of gold．
B．The people who have power in the countryside．
C．The people who spend money reasonably．
D．The rich who find no class to belong to．
30．Why is the word"Dama"popular now？A
A．They bought gold in the global market．
B．They are wealthy middle-aged women．
C．They brought the gold prices down．
D．They worked on the Wall Street．
31．Which word has already been in the Oxford English Dictionary？B
A．Tuhao．B．Taikonaut．C．Dama．D．Hukou．
32．According to John，the Oxford English DictionaryC．
A．updates its new version every three months

C．speeds up its acceptance of new words
D．has its online version to collect new words．

Make a plan for attaining goals that you believe will make you happy．Your moods will very likely increase if you are going after something you value．
Surround yourself with happy people．It is easy to begin to think negatively when you are surrounded by people who think that way．（32）B
When something goes wrong，try to figure out a solution instead of being absorbed in self pity．Truly happy people don't allow setbacks to affect their mood because they know that with a little thought they can turn the circumstances back to their favor．
（33）E．These few minutes will give you the opportunity to focus on the positive things in your life and will lead you to continuous happiness．
（34）G．Whether you treat yourself to lunch，take a long，relaxing bath or simply spend a few extra minutes on your appearance，you will be subconsciously （下意識地） putting yourself in a better mood．
Finding the humor in situations can also lead to happiness．Find a way to make light of a situation that would otherwise make you happy．
Keeping healthy is another way to achieve happiness．（35）C

A．What makes one person happy may be very different from what makes someone else happy．
B．On the contrary，if you are around people who are happy，their emotional state will be influenced．
C．Being overweight or not eating nutritious foods can have a negative effect on your mood．
D．These are important questions for anyone who is seeking happiness to ask themselves．
E．Spend a few minutes each day thinking about the things that make you happy．
F．There are some tips in life that lead to happiness．
G．It's also important to take some time each day to do something nice for yourself．
