A recent study surveyed 5,000 British families about their experiences with volunteering and their mental health. Participants completed the same survey every two years from 1996 to 2008.

About 20 percent of the survey participants reported doing regular unpaid work Researchers found that these volunteers also scored highest on their mental health scores.The two were linked so directly that the more a person volunteered,the happier they were.

One could argue a chicken-and-egg theory: happier people are more likely to have the time,money,energy and resources to give back to others.But even when researchers adjusted for education,social class and total health,the link was there,suggesting that the mental increase came from volunteering and not the other way around.

According to Dr.Stephen G.Post,author of The Hidden Gifts of Helping,when you help others,your brain releases feel-good chemicals,which can help cells repair themselves and grow.And this translates to better health.

So volunteering can help improve both your physical and mental health—on one condition.You have to mean it. People who volunteered for "self-oriental" reasons,either because they were forced to do so for work or school or because they were trying to get away from problems in their lives,had a mortality(死亡率)risk that was similar to those who didn't volunteer at all.It was only when people were volunteering out of a true sense of sympathy that they saw any health benefits.

So whether it's arranging books at the library or walking dogs at the animal shelter,find a cause that's important to you and give it a try.Volunteering is a good way to develop a sense of connection that not only helps your community,but may also be good for you.

1.Who are healthier according to the study?

A. people who are happier.

B. people who are good at taking exams.

C. people that work as volunteers regularly.

D. people that make a large amount of money.

2.Why does the author mention the chick-and-egg theory?

A. To introduce a world-famous theory.

B. To point out that volunteering came first.

C. To prove happy ones would like to help others.

D. To tell us that the cause and the effect are mixed.

3.What may be one of the "self-oriented" reasons?

A. You try your best to solve others' problems.

B. You are filled with pity for the foster kids.

C. You have the duty to look after the old.

D. You're always willing to help others.

4.What is the text mainly about?

A popular saying goes, “Sticks and stone may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” However, that’s not really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesn’t matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves – the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.

We all talk to ourselves sometimes. We’re usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. But we really shouldn’t be, because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.

This “self-talk” helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solves problems, and calm ourselves down. Beware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying, “Good job!”

Words possess power because of their lasting effects. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it true? Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesn’t pass this test, then it’s better left unsaid.

Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem(自尊) and motive others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.

1.The author argues in the first paragraph that ________.

A. words will never hurt us at all

B. words have lasting effects on us

C. positive effects last longer than negative effects

D. negative words last longer than positive effects

2.Why should we not feel embarrassed when talking to ourselves?

A. Almost everybody has the habit of talking to oneself.

B. It does harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone.

C. Talking to ourselves helps us to solve all the problems.

D. Talking to ourselves is believed to be good for our health.

3.The underlined phrase “give ourselves a pat on the back” in Paragraph 3 means _________.

A. blame ourselves B. punish ourselves

C. praise ourselves D. talk to ourselves

4.Which of the following statements would the author agree to?

A. It is better to think twice before talking to others.

B. It is impossible for unkind words to be forgotten.

C. Words always possess long positive effects.

D. Kind words are sometimes not needed at all.

According to the latest survey by the Asian Development Bank, Asian parents are spending billions of dollars on private tutors (家庭教師) for their children and the practice is growing despite doubts about its effectiveness.

“Shadow education” is an expanding business not only in wealthy countries, but also in some of the region’s poorer nations as parents try to give their children the best start in life, the study saiD. Nearly nine out of 10 South Korean elementary pupils receive private tutoring, while the figure for primary school children in India’s West Bengal state stands at six out of 10.

The study estimated that the costs of private tutoring in South Korea were equivalent (相等的) to 80 percent of government spending on public education. Japan spent $ 12 billion on extra teaching in 2011, while the figure for Singapore stood at US $ 680 million in 2009.

Extra academic work aims to help slow learners and support high achievers. Many Asian parents view it as a constructive way for adolescents (青少年) to spend their spare time. However, it can also reduce the students’ time for sports and other activities important for their overall development as well as cause social tensions as richer families are able to pay for better-quality tutoring, the study said.

The study calls for a review of educational systems to make such extra teaching less attractive.

1.Why is “Shadow education” an expanding business?

A. Because parents want to spend their money.

B. Because children don’t want to go to school.

C. Because parents want their children to stay with teachers.

D. Because parents want to give their children the best start in life.

2.According to the article, what is the purpose of extra academic work?

A. To aid slow learners and support high achievers.

B. To prepare children for all kinds of academic contests.

C. To gain the most knowledge students can’t get in class.

D. To increase children’s hobbies and interests in many fields.

3.Which disadvantage of extra academic work is NOT mentioned?

A. Causing social tensions.

B. Spending more extra money.

C. Lacking the chance to communicate with others.

D. Reducing the students’ time for sports and other activities.

4.What is the text mainly about?

A. The government policy on educational systems.

B. How to provide the best education for children.

C. The importance for children’s overall development.

D. The reasons for the popularity of private tutors for children.

It’s a Saturday morning in a large courtyard. Young designers sell their creations, from fine tea sets to hand-painted earrings. I could be in east London, that is, until standard Chinese tones remind me I’m in Jingdezhen, a small Chinese city.

Centuries ago, when Europeans first saw Chinese porcelain, it seemed so fine that they concluded it must have been made with magic and called it “white gold”.

They couldn’t find out how it was made, but they knew where it came from: the town of Changnan. Changnan porcelain was so in demand that early traders began calling the whole country by this town name. Mixed by foreign tongues, Changnan transformed into China.

Two million years after porcelain’s invention, the town, now called Jingdezhen, is still one of the world’s most important centers for porcelain production.

“The people are the most important treasure here. Their roots are deep in history.” says Zhang Jia. She’s part of a new wave of designers who have come to Jingdezhen to learn techniques handed down and refined( 使精美 ) over a hundred generations. “This is the best place to study porcelain in China, perhaps in the entire world,” she added.

Chinese artists aren’t the only ones drawn here. Founded in 2005 by Caroline Cheng, the Pottery Workshop runs classes for visitors from around the world.

Paul told me that when he first visited Jingdezhen there were no street lamps and only dirty pavements. There were workshops but their goods were bought by traders and sold on elsewhere. These days, stylish cafes and bars pop up next to concept stores. At one such shop, I admired some tiny teacups like birds.

With the popularity of the ottery Workshop, many of the designers are using Jingdezhen’s master craftsmen to make them because they know they offer quality, attention to detail.

1.What made the writer realize that he was in China?

A. Fine tea sets B. HandPDF-paintedearrings

C. Standard Chinese D. Fine Chinese porcelain

2.Why did early Europeans call Chinese porcelain “white gold”?

A. Because it was made in China.

B. Because they thought it was made with magic.

C. Because they knew it came from Changnan.

D. Because they liked it so much and it was in demand.

3.Zhang Jia came to Jingdezhen in order to__________.

A. know something about Jingdezhen’s history.

B. enjoy the beautiful scenery of Jingdezhen

C. study techniques of making porcelain

D. pay a visit to some of his foreign friends

4.From what Paul said we can learn______.

A. many foreign visitors came to Jingdezhen to study porcelain

B. China’s young people are more interested in unique products

C. their goods were not popular in western countries

D. in the past Jingdezhen was a poor and dirty town

Most children now chat daily either online or through their mobile phones. They are connecting to a huge number of other children all over the world. Some are shy “in real life” but are confident to communicate with others online; others find support from people of their own age on relationship issues, or problems at home.

Sometimes the online world, just like the real world, can introduce problems, such as arguments. Going online is great fun, but there are also a few people who use the Internet for offensive (冒犯性的) or illegal aims. Children must be made aware of both the good things and the dangers.

To keep children safe your management must cover the family computer. Just as you decide which TV programs are suitable, you need to do the same for the websites and chat rooms your children visit. Remind your children that online friends are still strangers. Reminding them of the risks will keep them alert (警惕).

Computer studies are part of schoolwork now, so it’s likely that your children may know more than you do. We get left behind when it comes to the latest gad-gets and the interactive areas of websites, like chat rooms and message boards, which are especially strange. The language of chat is strange to many parents, too. Chatters love to use abbreviations (縮寫(xiě)) such as: atb — all the best, bbfn — bye bye for now, cul8er — see you later, gr8 — great, Idk — I don’t know, imbl — it must be love, kit — keep in touch, paw — parents are watching, lol — laugh out loud, xlnt — excellent!

1.The passage is meant for ______.

A. children B. parents

C. teachers D. net bar owners

2.Which of the following will the author probably agree with?

A. The Internet is no good for children.

B. The chat language is strange to adults.

C. Children shouldn’t chat so much online.

D. The Internet is a good place for children.

3.In order to keep children safe online, you’d better ______.

A. choose suitable websites and chat rooms for them

B. teach them to use correct net words

C. surf the Internet together with them

D. forbid them to use the Internet

4.If you stand beside him when your son is chatting about something secret online, he may use ______.

A. bbfn B. lol

C. paw D. cul8er
