【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。Of the many unpleasant emotions we can experience, fear may top the list. 1. Fear can also keep us from pursuing the things in life that really matter --- like following our dreams, and developing important relationships. 2.Experience fear.I used to be very afraid of speaking in front of people. I would get sweaty palms and my stomach would be so tied up that I wouldn't be able to eat. However, each time I spoke, I noticed afterwards that it wasn't that bad. Things I fear are never as bad in reality as I make them out in my mind. 3.Create space.The first and most important step to being fearless is to create some space between ourselves and the emotion of fear. This isn't accomplished by ignoring the fear, or trying to talk ourselves out of it. 4. In fact, a recent research shows that by simply admitting the emotion we actually begin to reverse the "fight or flight (逃避)" response in the body.Control the breath and feel the fear.Once we acknowledge the presence of fear, the second step is to control the breathing so that it becomes slower and gentler. We try to make the breath just a little bit longer, and feel how fear manifests (展現(xiàn)) in the body. 5.With practice, we can create enough space between us and the emotion of fear so that we're able to replace a fearful thought with a positive one. We can imagine a positive outcome for whatever we're about to do. For instance, before I get up to speak in front of a group of people, I imagine that the audience is positively impressed by what I say and that I manage to complete the speech successfully.

A. As we pay attention to the physical symptoms of fear, we can see fear objectively.

B. Fear is more than just physically unpleasant.

C. Fear, if left uncontrolled, can even destroy our life.

D. So one way to get rid of fear is to simply push ourselves to do things that we fear.

E. When we can see a positive outcome in our mind, fear no longer holds us back.

F. I have some ideas, though, of how to be free from fear.

G. Space is created only when we can honestly acknowledge that fear exists.

【答案】

1B

Union is strength. Whenever you’re faced with difficulties, and cooperation plays an important part in getting you out of trouble.

There was a time that I was so proud that I overlooked my classmate, refusing to work together with them.Therefore, it was no doubt that I was left alone,suffering from loneliness and failure. Unluckily, a teacher impressed on me the value of cooperation.From then on, I learned to help others and turn to my friends for the help whenever I had difficulty finish a task on my own. Surely cooperation makes a great difference. Now I am getting on well with his friends.

My experience has teach me that only if we place great stress cooperation can we go beyond ourselves. As the saying go, “United we stand; divided we fall.”

【題目】Eating too much fatty food,exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease. But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately:the air you breathe.

Previous studies have linked high exposure(暴露)to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problems, but two analyses now show that poor air quality can cause heart attack or stroke(中風) within as little as a few hours after exposure. In one report of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants(污染物)were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. Another study of stroke patients showed that even air that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency(EPA)considers to be of “moderate”(良好) quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.

The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.

【1】The text mainly discusses the relationship between _________ .

A. heart problems and air quality

B. heart problems and exercising

C. heart problems and smoking

D. heart problems and/span> fatty food

【2】The underlined word modest in Paragraph 3 most probably means _________ .

A. relatively high B. extremely low

C. relatively low D. extremely high

【3】We can learn from the text that __________?

A. eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.

B. the EPA conducted many studies on air quality.

C. moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking.

D. stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.

【4】The author’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to _________ .

A. inform B. persuade C. describe D. entertain

【題目】 Sleep is a basic human need, as basic as the need for oxygen. Getting a good night’s sleep is not only directly related to how we feel the next day, but to our long-term health as well. However, many of us suffer from insomnia (失眠). Even more of us report at least one night of restless sleep per week. This is a serious problem.

Well, how can we make sure that we rest well and stay healthy? Here are some suggestions.

If you can’t sleep in the middle of the night, don’t get up. The bright light will affect your body clock and worsen your insomnia. Stay in bed!

Avoid short sleep during the day, except for a brief ten to fifteen-minute sleep between 2:00 and 4:00 P.M.

Limit your time in bed to the average number of hours you’ve actually slept per night last week. Don’t try to make up for lost sleep. It can’t be done.

Get regular exercise each day, but finish at least six hours before bedtime. Exercising in the evening can help keep you awake.

Take a hot bath for thirty minutes within two hours of bedtime. The bath will warm you, relax you, and make you feel sleepy.

Keep our bedroom dark, quiet, and well ventilated (通風).

Keep a regular schedule seven days a week. Avoid sleeping late on weekends. Although it may feel good while you’re doing it, sleeping late on weekend can lead to insomnia during the week.

Don’t drink alcohol (酒精). Although, having a drink before bed makes you sleep, alcohol loses its effects after a while. The secondary effects of alcohol can wake you up during the second half of your night’s sleep.

Keep the face of the clock in your bedroom turned away, and don’t find out what time it is when you awaken in the night.

【1】The first paragraph serves as a(n) __________.

A. argument B. introduction

C. comment D. explanation

【2】 Which of the following is NOT advised for a good night’s sleep?

A. Staying in bed after failing to sleep.

B. Don’t exercise six hours before sleeping

C. Don’t drink alcohol before sleeping.

D. Preventing the wind from blowing into your room.

【3】 To sleep well, you need to __________.

A. get up late on weekends

B. sleep during the day sometimes

C. avoid looking at your clock

D. have a bath in the morning

【4】The text mainly about__________ .

A. some keys to a better night’s sleep

B. some advantages of having a good sleep

C. some effects of bad night’s sleep

D. some reasons for insomnia

【題目】A study notes that Some children are natural-born bosses. They have a strong need to make decisions, manage their environment, and lead rather than follow. Stephen Jackson, a Year One student, "operates under the theory of what's mine is mine and what's yours is mine," says his mother."The other day I bought two new Star Wars light sabers (劍). Later, I saw Stephen with the two new ones while his brogher was using the beat-up ones."

"Examine the extended family, and you'll probably find a bossy grandparent, aunt, uncle or cousin in every generation. It's a common inheritable trait," says Russell Barkley, a professor at the Medical University of South Carolina. Other children who may not be particularly bossy can gradually gain control when they sense their parents are weak, hesitant, or in disagreement with each other.

Whether it's inborn nature or developed character at work, too much control in the hands at the young isn't healthy for children or the family, Fear is at the root of a lot of bossy behavior, says family psychologist John Taylor. Children, he says in his book From Defiance to Cooperation, "have secret feelings of weakness" and "a desire to feel safe." It's the parents' role to provide that protection.

When a "boss child" doesn't learn limits at home, the stage is set for a host of troubles outside the family. The overly willful and unbending child may have trouble obeying teachers or coaches, for example, or trouble keeping friends. It can be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your bossy ways.

"I see more and more parents giving up their power," says Barkley, who has studied bossy behavior for more than 30 years."They bend too far because they don't want to be as strict as their own parents were. But they also feel less confident about their parenting skills. Their kids, in turn, feel more anxious."

【1】Bossy children like Stephen Jackson _____.

A. make good decisions

B. show self-centeredness

C. lack care from others

D. have little sense of fear

【2】The underlined phrase "inheritable trait" in Paragraph 2 means _____.

A. inborn nature B. accepted theory

C. developed character D. particular environment

【3】The study on bossy behavior implies that parents _____.

A. should not set limits for their children

B. should give more power to their children

C. should be strict with their children properly

D. should let children find sense of safety by themselves

【4】It can be inferred from the last two paragraphs that bossy children may become

A.relaxed and confident B. hesitant and weak

C.lonely and anxious D.willful and unbending
