A. Music calms

B. Sweet food helps fight cancer

C. Shopping burns more calories

D. Cocoa improves your health

E. Gifting an experience promotes happiness

F. Writing holiday cards can promote gratitude

Christmas Is Good For You … Really!!!

The Christmas holiday season gets a bad name when it comes to health, but this time of year can actually boost your mind and body. And here’s how …

1.____________

Studies have found that spending money on experiences increases happiness more than paying a large sum of money for material goods. Now new research shows this mood lift can come from simply making your list (and checking it twice): A 2014 Cornell study found that people who merely expect to make an up coming experiential purchase, such as ski lessons, report higher levels of happiness than those who plan to buy, say, a new tech gadget.

2.___________

Singing can reduce stress hormones and boost oxytocin, the “l(fā)ove” hormone that promotes feelings of trust and bonding. Swedish research published last year found that certain aspects of singing make people adopt a calm breathing pattern, like that associated with yoga. Singing in a group can improve self-esteem and increase feelings of social belonging, which can ward off loneliness. Even if you are not accustomed to singing aloud Christmas tunes door-to-door, sing along with your kids or our partner to a holiday radio station while you go on a short trip or drive to visit families or friends.

3.___________

Waling about in the supermarket for about an hour can burn 200 to 300 calories, depending on your size; what’s more, it’s time you do not stick to your computer or television screens. Too much sitting increases your risk of everything from type 2 diabetes to cancer. The more “incidental” fitness — stringing holiday fights, searching for an old album in the basement, bustling around the kitchen while preparing holiday dinners — you can squeeze into your day, the better off you will be.

4.___________

Instead of working with the modern instant communication apps, consider it an opportunity to write a personal note expressing how much the receiver means to you and how much you appreciate the help or guidance he or she offered. One study found that people who put down what they were thankful for each week felt more optimistic about their lives, exercised more, and even had fewer visits to physicians than people who wrote down things that annoyed them or neutral events.

5.____________

This sweet treat lowers LDL cholesterol (膽固醇) and blood pressure, raises HDL cholesterol, and even improves cognitive function and memory. In 2012, the European Food Safety Athority issued a scientific opinion that said consuming 200mg of cocoa flavonoids(類(lèi)黃酮) a day can contribute to healthy blood flow. A cup made with a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa can contain or even go beyond this amount. To minimize clumping, mix powder into milk that’s really warm. Add spices like cinnamon and a small amount of sugar or honey to cut the bitterness.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2015-2016學(xué)年河北廣平縣第一中學(xué)高二下學(xué)期第一次月考英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are concerned about their own appearance and actions too much. Negative thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: What kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?

It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably. A person's self-concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a deep effect on all areas of their lives.

Shy people, who have low respect, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need faith that they are doing "the right thing". Shy people are very sensitive to criticism. It makes them feel inferior（自卑）. They also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise. A shy person may respond to a praise with a statement like this one: "You're just saying that to make me feel good, I know it's not true.” It is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.

Can shyness be completely got rid of, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determination since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self respect. It is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths. Each one of us has his or her own characteristics. We are interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our chances for a rich and successful life.

1.The first paragraph is mainly about______.

A. the cause of shyness

B. the effect of shyness on people

C. the feelings of shy people

D. the questions in the minds of shy people

2.According to the writer, self-awareness is______.

A. harmful to people

B. a weak point of people

C. the cause of unhappiness

D. a good characteristic

3.What is the shy people's reaction to praise?

A. They are pleased by it.

B. They feel it is not true.

C. They are very sensitive to it.

D. They feel they are worthy of it.

Many people go to school for a good education. They learn languages, history, maths and other lessons. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything from school. No matter how much a teacher knows, he cannot teach his students everything they want to know. His work is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves. It is always more important to know how to study by oneself. It is quite easy to learn something in a language or a formula（公式） in maths，but it is difficult to use a formula in finding the answer to a maths problem . Great inventors do not get everything from school but they can invent many things and change the world a lot. Though Thomas Edison invented many things he didn’t have much school education. How do they do all these? Because they know how to study. A lot of things are not taught in the classroom. They get knowledge from books outside school. They work hard all their lives, and the most important thing is that they know how to use their head.

1.What do many people go to school for?

A. To make friends B. To get everything

C. To study by themselves D. To get a good education

2.What should a student learn to do from school?

A. Try to remember more knowledge and formulas.

B. Try to learn how to read and how to think.

C. Try to remember what the teachers teach.

D. Try to invent the world.

3.How can an inventor invent things? The most important thing is how to:

A. be a great inventor

B. study by himself

C. use his head well

D. remember what he’s been taught

4.What is the main idea of this passage?

A. School education is important for a person.

B. A student should learn how to remember a formula.

C. A student can not learn everything from school.

D. Inventors can invent things and change the world a lot.
