A 15-year-old boy was injured in a car accident when the car he was traveling in was hit by a truck at a street corner. The boy was taken to a nearby hospital. The doctors said it appeared that the boy had nothing more serious than a broken left leg, but there was a possibility that the boy might have some inside injuries. The boy was conscious(清醒的) when he was sent to the hospital. Luckily, his mother, who was driving, was uninjured. She said that the truck appeared so suddenly that she thought she was going to die. She turned her car sharply to the left, and the truck hit it on the passenger side.

The driver of the truck was a 50-year-old man who was unemployed and it was clear that he had been drinking because the police found 18 empty beer cans inside his truck. However, the man denied drinking even if he had failed the police test for drinking, saying, “No, I haven’t drunk anything.” When asked to touch his nose , ears, and mouth with his eyes closed, he was unable to touch any part of his head.

So the police put him into the back seat of a police car. But the man kept crying, “Mabel, where is my Mabel? I can’t find her now. I want my Mabel.” The police asked him if Mabel was his wife. He said, “She’s my dog, my dog! Where’s my baby?” Later in the day, the police found a dog with a ring around her neck, on which was written “Mabel” half a block away from where the accident happened. Perhaps the man was looking for his pet dog after drinking when the accident happened. As a result, the man was taken to the city jail for driving after drinking and it seemed that Mabel would be left alone.

1.Which of the following is true about the accident ?

A. The boy’s mother was injured.

B. The boy was driving the car.

C. A car ran into a truck at a corner.

D. The truck driver drank beer.

2.How did the mother feel when she saw the truck coming ?

A. amazed B. frightened

C. puzzled D. concerned

3.What did the doctors think of the boy ?

A. He was OK because he was conscious.

B. He may be injured inside.

C. His right leg was broken.

D. He was going to die of a broken leg.

4.which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “denied” in the second paragraph?

A. admitted B. determined C. disagreed D. preferred

Comparative thinking and behavior is quite typical among teenagers, but it is the responsibility of the parent to set limits and hold firmly to them. Frequently, a parent will tell me in frustration about how their child has complained about not having the very best in fashion design like their friends, or the latest electronic gadgetry that all the other kids own.

Parents need to teach their children self?confidence. Those who are self?confident resist the urge to compare themselves to other people, and do not overestimate others' experience while diminishing their own. But some people may have a mantra signified by the slogan, if only. “If only I had the money of my brother; if only I was smart like my classmates; if only I was as good?looking as my friends.”

Comparing oneself with others is a trap. People who compare themselves with other individuals tend to feel that they are not good enough. They tend to perseverate(表現(xiàn)執(zhí)拗)about their shortcomings. Even if they try their best，it is not good enough because they can always find someone who performs at a higher level. When people compare, they generally focus on their negative traits. They ignore all that is going right in their life. They also tend to minimize their success and dismiss positive gestures and compliments.

Those who are confident listen to their own inner voice. They are not influenced by other people's view of events. They are not overly impressed by others' success, money, health，and material possessions. They do not believe that others have a greater sense of emotional well?being than they do.

Recently, The Harvard Mental Health Letter published an article which indicated that people with chronic(慢性的)pain had as significant a sense of well?being as those without chronic pain. However, those with chronic pain tended to overestimate the emotional well?being of physically healthy people. The study confirmed that it is how we view events that is important, not the nature of our circumstances which may include making comparisons.

1. It seems that those who make comparisons don't________.

A. care about their success

B. have self?confidence

C. overestimate others' experience

D. understand others' success

2.The third paragraph mainly tells us________.

A. people tend to compare themselves to other individuals

B. those who make comparisons focus on their strengths

C. those who make comparisons don't deserve compliments

D. making comparisons can cause many negative effects

3.The article published in The Harvard Mental Health Letter indicates________.

A. chronic pain actually doesn't affect people's sense of happiness

B. physically healthy people have a higher sense of happiness

C. emotional health has nothing to do with physical health

D. what is important is the nature of events rather than our viewpoints

4. What is the author's attitude towards “making comparisons”？

A. Favorable. B. Unconcerned.

C. Disapproving. D. Doubtful.

A happy family life doesn't happen by chance. It is a result from husband and wife who carefully and diligently create a home where there is love, respect, forgiveness, patience, service and selflessness.

1. The love of husband and wife makes their union last forever; the love of parents for children enables them to feel safe in the world; the love of children for parents lightens the burden that the parents bear; and the love among children reduces quarrels and fights.

A couple who respect each other never blame their spouse（配偶）.He or she doesn't think much about her or his weaknesses but helps her or him overcome them. 2.

Forgiveness cannot be ignored either. Conflicts often arise in a family but they can be settled right away. The one who is at fault should immediately ask for forgiveness and the other should choose to forgive. 3.

4. If there is patience in the family, anger will be controlled and there will be peace and harmony.

5. Small acts of service in a family make people's hearts glad. Children learn simple acts of service by giving their parents a glass of water, and a couple serve each other by taking care of family members.

There have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believe that they can't help putting on weight as they get older，while others hold that if they stop exercising，their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths：

I'll never lose weight—I come from a fat family

Wrong！While we can't change the body type we are born with，we can't blame our genes for making us fat. There's plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families，and the main reason is that they share the same habits of eating too much and exercising too little.

I am fat because I burn calories slowly

Wrong！Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陳代謝). In fact，although fat people consume more energy than slim people，they also fail to realize how much they eat！Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately.

Exercise is boring

Wrong！Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that's fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk，take a different route. If you do yoga，try a tai chi class. If you like swimming，set yourself a distance or time challenge.

No pain，no gain

Wrong！Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed，pain is your body telling you something's wrong，and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly，but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly. If they don't，rest and seek medical advice.

1.What does the author think about being fat?

A. It is the family genes that make people fat.

B. People are fat because they consume too little energy.

C. A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat.

D. It is the consequence of people's unbalanced lifestyle.

2.According to the author，how can we make exercise more interesting?

A. By taking varied exercise.

B. By choosing simple exercise.

C. By doing regular exercise.

D. By sticking to outdoor exercise.

3.What is the author's opinion about “No pain，no gain” in exercising?

A. Keeping fit is essentially a painful experience.

B. Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.

C. Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.

D. Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body.

4.What is the purpose of the passage?

A. To declare the importance of keeping fit.

B. To clarify some misconceptions about fatness and exercise.

C. To confirm what has long been believed about keeping fit.

D. To explain some medical facts about being fat and doing exercise.
