8．What kind of life do you seek for？One that is frustrating and full of complaints every day？Or one that is filled with thankfulness，gratefulness and a positive mind？
The moment we open our eyes each day，we should be grateful that we are still alive．We are given a brand-new day．We are given another day to love．We are given another day of hope．We are given another chance to do whatever we have failed to accomplish．Those who have chosen to leave this place do not have any second chance．
We should be grateful every day．By being grateful，we will treasure the things around us．We will learn to appreciate life in a better way．Treat others better and find ourselves in a better mood every day．When we are thankful and grateful for the things we have，the universe tends to give us more．
By being thankful and grateful for our personal health，we will focus our attention on it and we would want to have a better well-being for our health．We will want to eat healthier food to nourish our body．After all，the body is the temple of our soul．We have to treat it well so that it can carry us a longer journey in life．
When we face problems in life，be thankful and grateful too．They are designed specifically for us so that we will be stronger and wiser．We are like a strong oak tree，facing the harsh  weathers time to time．After each storm，we will grow stronger and strengthen our foundations for the next harsh weather．
The year 2010has come to an end．Have you achieved what you aimed for in the past year？Be grateful for those you have achieved and especially for those you have not-both successes and failures．Failures and mistakes will give you valuable lessons．So，pick yourself up and try again this year．Good luck！

13．March 21has been declared World Sleep Day，a time to recognize and celebrate the value of sleep．Many sleep experts hope it will be a wake-up call．
According to a 2013poll（民意調(diào)查） by the National Sleep Foundation，nearly 4in 5Americans don't get as much sleep as they should during the workweek．On average，adults are thought to need at least eight hours of sleep a night，although some can manage with less and some won't do well without more．But the survey found that，on workdays，only 21% of Americans actually get a full eight hours of sleep，and another 21% get less than six．
To many of us，the thought of spending more time sleeping is，well，a big yawn．On the other hand，the thought of being smarter，thinner，healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal．And those are just a few of the advantages that can be ours if we consistently get enough sleep，researchers say．Also on the plus side：We're likely to have better skin，better memories，better judgment，and，oh，yes，longer lives．
"When you lose even one hour of sleep for any reason，it influences your performance the next day，"says Dr．Alon Avidan，director of the UCLA Sleep Disorders Center．
A study published last year found the same to be true even of children．When kids aged 8to 12slept for just one hour less for four nights，they didn't function as well during the day．
But sleeping has an image problem．"We see napping or sleeping as lazy，"says Jennifer Vriend，a clinical psychologist in Ottawa，Canada，and the leading author of the study with children．"We put so much emphasis on diet，nutrition and exercise．Sleep is in the back seat．"In fact，she adds，no matter how much we work out，no matter how well we eat，we can't be in top physical shape unless we also get plenty of sleep．

56．The underlined part in Paragraph 1meansC．
A．to wake up the sleepers
B．to serve as a morning call
C．to draw people's attention
D．to declare the special day
57．Which of the following is True according to Paragraph 2？B
A．People can do well without enough sleep．
B．Adults need at least eight hours'sleep a day．
C．Only one-forth of Americans have enough sleep．
D．One-fifth of American adults sleep less than children．
58．From Paragraph 3we can infer thatC．
A．being healthier is one of the advantages for us
B．sleeping has nothing to do with one's expectations
C．enough sleep is the guarantee of the appealing things
D．spending more time on sleeping is a waste of time
59．What Jennifer Vriend said in the last paragraph implies thatA．
A．people care little about sleeping
B．sleeping is an image problem
C．lazy people tend to sleep long
D．sleeping is only part of our life
60．What is the purpose of the passage？D
A．To talk about people's sleeping problems．
B．To provide an investigation result of sleeping．
C．To stress the function of sleeping at night．
D．To arouse the awareness of enough sleeping．

16．Don't you just love ice skating every winter？I am sure that since winter is approaching，your skates are set to come out，just waiting to be used．Impress your friends with your new trick on how to ice-skate backwards with the help of these tips．
Stand straight
The first thing that you need to do is，stand straight．（36）G，if you feel that you are falling backwards．Don't worry； this happens to all．
Confidence is what you need
The most important step while learning how to skate backwards，is having enough confidence in yourself and in what you are doing．How can you achieve this？By practice．One of the important ice skating tips and techniques is that if you feel that you are losing your balance，then scissor（做剪式運動）your skates．（37）C．
Maintain speed
Try sculling（滑）with one skate while rolling in a straight line with the other．（38）A．Now bring the skate which you are using to scull，and then again，repeat the same process．Make sure that you put most of your weight on the skate which is moving straight and not the one with which you are sculling．
Now，try the same thing using the other foot．
（39）D．
Once you are confident that you can scull with either foot，the next thing that you have to do is increase your speed．Try some of your own tricks now．Scull with either foot or with both at the same time．
Scull and be aware
While you keep one foot straight，keep sculling with the other．You can do that with both feet at the same time．（40）F，but don't get so involved that you don't see where you are going．If you are not watching your back，you might just bang against something or someone．

A．That is，keep pushing yourself backwards with an outwards stroke（滑動）
B．While going backwards，just get used to the feeling of moving backwards
C．Keep practicing this till you are confident about it
D．Increase your speed now
E．One must be brave enough to learn to ice-skate backwards

3．Somewhere on the other side of the world，a small group of workers is busy with a life-or-death struggle．This battle isn't about self-protection，as admirable as that might be． By slaying to face the radiation and Fire at Japan's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station following the earthquake and then tsunami（海嘯）in Japan，the 50 or so workers may have already shortened their life．They knew that would happen．
And yet they stay，working in near-total darkness，pumping seawater onto exposed nuclear fuel in hopes that they can prevent thousands of tons of radioactive material going into the air，and protect the health of millions of people．
Their task sounds like something out of a sci-fi thriller．They worked on the equipment in the complete darkness only by their flashlights，listening for explosions．They carry heavy oxygen tanks on their backs．They wear white，full-body jump suits to protect their bodies．Like Oscar said in"Armageddon"："Scariest environment imaginable．That's all you have to say．"
According to news reports，some of the 50 workers volunteered to remain behind to take charge of the fire pumps with which they're spraying seawater on the exposed fuel． It's part of the job，part of the training，"an American nuclear power plant operator said．"Nobody makes a secret of the possible dangers at a place like this．If there's a problem，you don't call somebody in to fix it．It's our problem．We're the only ones who can fix it．That's just what we do．"
I don't know about you，but I've never really thought of nuclear power plant workers as"guardians at the gate"-those whose jobs may at any time place them in a position to protect us，perhaps at the risk of their own lives．
These are obviously guardians at the gate．In every case they're trained to respond to unknown possibilities．For them，it isn't a matter of courage-it's standard operating procedure．
61．What do we know from the text？C
A．The rescue work was admirable．
B．The accident was successfully handled．
C．The workers faced a life danger．
D．The earthquake was the main reason．
62．The third paragraph is mainly aboutB   
A．the way they worked                                     
B．the dangerous environment
C．Oscar's famous words                                    
D．the description of a film
63．According to the author，the 50 workersD   
A．were ordered by the government                          
B．were requested by the world
C．left behind against their own will                      
D．were performing their duties
64．The underlined word"you"in Paragraph 5 refers toA   
A．the 50 workers                      
B．the readers     
C．the news reporters                                      
D．the author
65．What would be the best title for the text？B
A．Japan's nuclear accident                                
B．Guardians at the gate
C．Saving nuclear power station                            
D．Using nuclear power safely．

13．Want a glance of the future of health care？Take a look at the way the various networks of people about patient care are being connected to one another，and how this new connectivity is being exploited to deliver medicine to the patient-no matter where he or she may be．
Online doctors offering advice based on normal symptoms（癥狀） are the most obvious example．Increasingly，however，remote diagnosis（遠程診斷） will be based on real physiological data（生理數(shù)據(jù)） from the actual patient．A group from the University of Kentucky has shown that by using personal data assistance plus a mobile phone，it is perfectly practical to send a patient's important signs over the telephone．With this kind of equipment，the cry asking whether there was a doctor in the house could well be a thing of the past．
Other medical technology groups are working on applying telemedicine to rural（countryside） care．And at least one team wants to use telemedicine as a tool for disaster need-especially after earthquakes．On the whole，the trend is towards providing global access to medical data and experts'opinions．
But there is one problem．Bandwidth（寬帶） is the limiting factor for sending complex（復(fù)雜的） medical pictures around the world-CT photos being one of the biggest bandwidth users．Communication satellites may be able to deal with the short-term needs during disasters such as earthquakes or wars．But medicine is looking towards both the second-generation Internet and third-generation mobile phones for the future of remote medical service．
Doctors have met to discuss computer-based tools for medical diagnosis，training and telemedicine．With the falling price of broadband communications，the new technologies should start a new time when telemedicine and the sharing of medical information，experts'opinions and diagnosis are common．
59．The writer chiefly talks aboutA
A．the use of telemedicine                 
B．the on-lined doctors
C．medical care and treatment        
D．communication improvement
60．The basis of remote diagnosis will beC．
A．personal data assistance 
B．some words of a patient
C．real physiological information
D．medical pictures from the Internet
61．Which of the following statements is true according to the text？D
A．Patients don't need doctors in hospitals any more．
B．It is impossible to send a patient's signs over the telephone．
C．Many teams use telemedicine dealing with disasters now．
D．Broadband communications will become cheaper in the future．
62．The"problem"in the fourth paragraph refers to the fact thatA．
A．bandwidth isn't big enough to send complex medical pictures
B．the second-generation of Internet has not become popular yet
C．communication satellites can only deal with short-term needs
D．there is not enough equipment for spreading the medical care．

20．For a while，my neighborhood was taken over by an army of joggers（慢跑者）．They were there all the time：early morning，noon，and evening．There were little old ladies in gray sweats，young couples in Adidas shoes，middle?aged men with red faces．"Come on！"My friend Alex encouraged me to join him as he jogged by my house every evening．"You'll feel great．"
Well，I had nothing against feeling great and if Alex could jog every day，anyone could．So I took up jogging seriously and gave it a good two months of my life，and not a day more．Based on my experience，jogging is the most overvalued form of exercise around，and judging from the number of the people who left our neighborhood jogging army．I'm not alone in my opinion．
First of all，jogging is very hard on the body．Your legs and feet had a real pounding（追擊） running down a road for two or three miles．I developed foot，leg，and back problems．Then I read about a nationally famous jogger who died of a heart attack while jogging，and I had something else to worry about．Jogging doesn't kill hundreds of people，but if you have any physical weaknesses，jogging will surely bring  them out，as they did with me．
Secondly，I got no enjoyment out of jogging．Putting one foot in front of the other for forty-five minutes isn't my idea of fun．Jogging is also a lonely pastime．Some joggers say，"I love being out there with just my thoughts．"Well，my thoughts began to bore me，and most of them were on how much my legs hurt．
And how could I enjoy something that brought me pain？And that wasn't just the first week：it was practically every day for two months．I never got past the pain level，and pain isn't fun．What a cruel way to do it！So many other exercises，including walking，lead to almost the same results painlessly，so why jog？
I don't jog any more，and I don't think I ever will．I'm walking two miles three times a week at a fast pace，and that feels good．I bicycle to work when the weather is good．I'm getting exercise，and I'm enjoying it at the same time．I could never say the same for jogging，and I've found a lot of better ways to stay in shape．

56．From the first paragraph，we learn that in the writer's neighborhoodA．
A．jogging became very popular 
B．people jogged only during the daytime
C．Alex organized an army of joggers 
D．jogging provided a chance to get together
57．The underlined word"them"（Paragraph 3）most probably refers toD．
A．heart attacks 
B．back problems 
C．famous joggers 
D．physical weaknesses
58．What was the writer's attitude towards jogging in the beginning？A
A．He felt it was worth a try．
B．He was very fond of it．
C．He was strongly against it．
D．He thought it must be painful．
59．Why did the writer give up jogging two months later？B
A．He disliked doing exercise outside．
B．He found it neither healthy nor interesting．
C．He was afraid of having a heart attack．
D．He was worried about being left alone．
60．From the writer's experience，we can conclude thatA．
A．not everyone enjoys jogging
B．he is the only person who hates jogging
C．nothing other than jogging can help people keep fit
D．jogging makes people feel greater than any other sport．

17．We've all seen them：perfectly toned famous people on late-night television telling us that we too can develop rock-hard abdominal muscles（腹�。甀t's easy!Just pay﹩149.99 for the Torso Track or﹩149.75 for the Ad-Doer and watch those unwanted inches leave your waist．Americans spend tens of million of dollars on various products to firm up their fat around the waist．
And did they work？Not necessarily．Independent studies have concluded that most of these products-no matter who approved them or how expensive they are-shape your midsection no better than old-fashioned stomach crunches（仰臥起坐）．Some can even cause injury-like the﹩518.99 Body Shaper-Q8SP，which left electrical burns on some researchers at the University of Wisconsin，La Crosse．Others，like the popular Ab-Doer，trpically burn less energy than a gentle walk，according to a study to be published in September by the American Council on Exercise．
The fact is that many Americans don't have the biological makeup to develop an obvious abdominal muscles．They are either unable to get the necessary muscle mass or they can't lose enough fat to make a difference．Even if the underlying muscles are well developed，and it takes to hide it is one-sixteenth of tan inch of fat．That's enough to dismiss most healthy women as well as plenty of guys who do crunches every day．
So what works best？In its new study，the exercise experts researched on the results of the popular Ab-Doer．A lengthy TV advertisement promises that just 10minutes a day performing such movements as"Body Boogies"and"Good Mornings"will"help form those muscles the fun and easy way without diets．"Steven Loy，professor at California State University，Northridge，tested the promise by measuring the electrical activity produced by the abdominal muscles during three Ab-Doer movements．He and his colleagues then compared the results with those produced during traditional exercises．They determined that the muscles were no more active，and in some cases less so，when exercisers were using the Ab-Doer．
Taking a broader approach，researchers at San Diego State University compared 13abdominal exercises for their ability to develop the central abdominal muscles．They concluded，in a report published in May，that the most effective exercises kept turning the body and worked the muscles the entire time．Among the winners：the bicycle movements-so called because it looks as if you are riding a bike while lying flat on the floor-and exercises performed on the"Captain's Chair"，a product typically found in gyms that helps hold the body in the air while you raise your legs up toward your chest．Researchers suggested that a varied routine of the different exercises could deliver the best results．

63．Which of the following is the most effective in building abdominal muscles？C
A．Torso Track．
B．Ab-Doer．
C．Captain's Chair．
D．Body Shaper-Q8SP．
64．According to the author，it's difficult for many Americans to get visible firm abdominal muscles mainly becauseD．
A．they do not put in enough efforts
B．injuries interrupt their exercise frequently
C．they change their exercise routine regularly
D．how big their muscles will be is determined by birth
65．The author convinces the readers byC．
A．describing successful eases
B．offering professional connects
C．presenting findings of researches
D．comparing advertisements of products
