A

          Break Your Bad Mood

Having one of those days or weeks-- when everything seems to annoy you? Even if you do nothing about it, your bad mood will probably go away after some time. But with a little effort, you can forget it much faster--often within a day or two.

Walk it off

Exercise is the most popular bad-- mood buster. A person who's in a bad mood has low energy and high tension, taking a fast ten--minute walk, or doing some quick exercises can do wonders towards changing that bad mood.

Tune it out

Listening to your favorite music for a while can also make tension go away quickly, because music starts associations with past positive experiences we've had.

Give yourself a pep talk

Stop and listen to what's on your mind. Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts. Write them all down on paper--the pessimistic messages you've been giving yourself and then give optimistic answers. ("I still don't have a job." vs "I have two interviews next week.")

Reduce your stress

Relaxation techniques are wonderful modifiers. These include deep breathing, stretching and visualizing, all of which sound complicated but aren't. One easy way to visualize: close your eyes and picture a favorite place, such as the beach. Another simple way to be against distress is to make a to-do list. One reason for being in a bad mood is feeling you have no options. By taking control over certain areas, you realize you're not helpless. You can make changes in your mood and life.

Avoid things that won't improve your mood     

TV may not help much: You need to increase your energy level and stimulate your mind-something that the TV show "Neighbors" won't do. And before you reach for that piece of cake and coffee, think about how mood and food are linked. Sugar and caffeine contribute to depressed moods. A better choice? Research shows that carbohydrates, such as potatoes and pasta(意大利面食), produce a calming effect on people who have a desire for them.

36.  We learn from the text that it might help us to get rid of a bad mood ________
A. to do nothing about it             B. to take a long walk on the beach  
C. to do some exercises with light music  D. to talk about it to neighbors

37.  Why is it suggested that you close your eyes and picture the beach?
A. It is not complicated to do so.       B. It is an area which can be easily controlled.
C. It helps beat a bad mood.         D. It brings us a new technique.

38.  TV may not improve your mood because ________.
A. it sometimes shows what happens around you
B. it keeps you sitting without moving
C. it reminds you of eating and drinking
D. it produces a calming effect 

39.  This text most probably appears in ________.
A. a book on physical exercises       B. a doctor's handbook
C. a notice                D. a magazine

B

Mass Media

Every day, we are all influenced by the mass media, although some critics of the media claim that these means of communication are used mainly to control our thinking and get us to buy products that we don't need, the media also contribute to keeping people informed. In other words, while dangers do exist, the benefits of the media far outweigh(超过) the disadvantages. Most of the messages brought to viewers, listeners, and readers and designed either to inform or to entertain, and neither of these goals can be considered dangerous or harmful.

If consumers of the media could be taught at an early age to examine messages critically, i.e., to think carefully about what is being communicated, they would be able to take advantage of the information and enjoy the entertainment without being hurt by it. The key to critical thinking is recognizing the purposes of the news or scriptwriters, the advertisers, and so on. Are both sides of an issue being presented? Is the amount of violence and killing shown necessary to the point of a story? Have enough facts about a product being advertised been presented?

Besides, in a country with a democratic (民主的) form of government, the people can be kept informed by the mass media. To be able to express their views and vote intelligently, citizens need the opportunity to hear news, opinions, and public affairs programming. Information about current events is presented in-depth on publicly funded TV channels and radio stations as well as in newspapers. In addition, the public broadcasting media can help viewers and listeners to complete or further their education.

The media also give people the information they need in their daily lives and the media can be a valuable means of educating the public. Even though the media can be misused, most of their effects are positive.

40.  The main point the writer tries to make in this text is that ________
A. advertising is harmful when it presents incorrect information
B. the positive effects of the mass media outweigh the negative ones
C. people should learn to take advantage of the media's benefits
D.TV is more useful as a means of entertainment than as a means of providing information

41.  What should consumers of the mass media be taught at an early age?
A. To bring their imagination into full play when watching programs of low quality.
B. To buy products advertised so that the demand increases.
C. To turn off the TV set when hurt by bad programs.
D. To think critically about the messages brought to them.

42.  We can learn from paragraph 3 that citizens will be in a better position to express their view and make their choices if they are     .
A. highly educated through TV and radio   B. well protected by the government
C. highly paid by the employers       D. well informed by the media 

43.  The underlined phrase "in-depth" in paragraph 3 could be best replaced by________.
A. thoroughly    B. partly   C. relatively    D. simply

C

The classical study of family size and IQ was conducted in the Netherlands. It was based on the military examinations of more than 386,000 Dutchmen. Researchers found that the brightest subjects came from the smallest families and had few, if any, brothers and sisters when they were born. Thus the firstborn child in .a family of two was usually brighter than the last child in a family.

The effects of family size on intelligence may be explained by what a house full of children does to the home environment. It increases the amount of time a child spends with other children and decreases the amount of parental attention he or she receives. For example, a parent with one restless child is likely to sit and play with the child. The same parent with two or three restless children is more likely to ask them to play with each other. Some psychologists say that when a child interacts (交往) with an adult alone, the child learns more and therefore intelligence is increased . Researchers have also found that parents often expect more from their firstborn , which motivates (激发) such children to seek a higher standard.

Not all psychologists agree that firstborns tend to be more intelligent. They say that the data need to be examined more closely for other possible explanations. For example, in industrialized nations most large families come from lower socio-economic backgrounds. Thus environment, not family size or birth order, may be influencing intelligence. On the other hand, there may be genetic variations (基因变异) within families that also explain the cause of differences.

If firstborns have advantages in the area of intelligence, research has also shown that they may be more conforming (墨守成规) and have poorer social skills than their younger siblings (brothers and sisters ). Although more research needs to be done in this area, it is clear that such actors as birth order, the order in which boys and girls are born into a family, the number of years that separate siblings probably have an effect on the development of intelligence, personality, and social relationships.

44.  The underlined word "subjects" in the first paragraph means ________.
A. branches of knowledge          
B. persons chosen to be studied in experiments
C. any member of a state except the top ruler 
D. something to be considered

45.  Psychologists are divided with regard to (关于) their opinions toward________.
A. the way in which the data are explained
B. the advantages of firstborns in the area of IQ
C. the planned size of families
D. the factors influencing intelligence

46.  Why are firstborns encouraged to seek a higher standard ?
A. They are more obedient (服从) and have poorer social skills.
B. Their parents spend less time with other children.
C. They obtain more attention from their parents.
D. Their parents expect more from them.

47.  The best title for this passage would be________.
A. Family Size and IQ         B. The Preference of Boys to Girls
C. The Development of Intelligence   D. Factors Influencing IQ

D

For a 400-year-old art form, operas had a bad fame: overweight actresses singing the words which are hard to understand in one of those romance languages you were supposed to learn in high school. And with tickets costing as much as $145 a performance, opera goers also have a certain appearance in people’s mind: rich, well-dressed and old.

But now opera companies around the country are loosening their ties and kicking off their shoes in an attempt to bring the opera to the audience. It needs to keep it alive, the young and not-so-rich.

Opera producers have found that to attract this crowd, they need to make the opera closer to common people. That means no formal suits or old-styled theatre. And because young people don’t or won’t come to the opera, companies are bringing the opera to them, giving performances in such unusual places as parks, libraries and public schools.

The Houston Grand Opera’s choice is the public library, where it performs “mobile operas”, shortened versions of child friendly operas. This summer’s production is Hansel & Gretel. By performing smaller versions of large productions, producers are able to make people interested while keeping costs at a reasonable level. The San Francisco Opera, which will be celebrating its 75th anniversary this year, is staging Cinderella free of charge, keeping costs down by employing students from its Young Artist’s Training Program.

48.  Which is the main idea of this passage?
A. Opera is famous for its long history
B. Opera is only performed for rich people
C. Young people aren’t interested in opera
D. Opera companies are trying to keep opera alive

49.  The underlined phrase “loosening their ties and kicking off their shoes” means   .
A. breaking up the old rules    B. changing the formal suits
C. making the audience at ease   D. advertising themselves

50.  Opera companies prefer to perform short versions because     .
A. it is hard to find long versions      B. short versions are easy to perform
C. they can perform in public libraries  D. they can make more people come to opera

51.  From the passage we can infer that    .
A. the tickets for operas are very expensive
B. operas are performed in a difficult language
C. operas are not so popular an art form today
D. students enjoy performing operas very much

E

Do you want to have a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts? Or are you afraid that your friend would laugh at you, or just can’t understand what you are going through?

Anne Frank chose the first kind. She lived in Amsterdam during World War II. Her family was Jewish(犹太人)so they had to hide, or they would be caught by the German soldiers. She and her family hid away for two years before they were discovered. During this time the only true friend was her diary, which she called Kitty.

In a diary dated on Thursday 15, June, 1944, she wrote, “ Dear Kitty, I wonder if it is because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so mad about everything to do with nature. I can well remember that there was a time when a blue sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me puzzled. That’s changed since I was here for a year and a half.

52.  In Anne’s opinion, the best friend is one who _______.
A. knows everything         B. likes to talk with you
C. can read your diary        D. can understand you

53.  Who do you think Kitty is?  
A. Anne’s sister  B. Anne’s mother  C. Anne’s teacher  D. Anne’s diary

54.  Anne had grown so mad about nature. Maybe it was because ________.
A. she had been indoors too long   B. she had no interest in nature
C. she had always been such a girl  D. she had got used to living alone

55.  In her diary on Thursday 15, June, 1944, Anne expressed her strong wish for _______.
A. friendship   B. schooling    C. free life   D. fine weather

Journalist: Well, I'm very i  56  by all the work you've done on your house, Mr Miller.

       How long have you been working on it?

Mr Miller: I first became interested in do-it-yourself several years ago. You see, my son Paul is d 57  . He's in a wheel-chair and I just had to make changes to the house. I couldn't a 58   to pay workmen to do it. I had to learn to do it myself.

J: Had you had any experience of this kind of work? Did you have any p  59   skills?

M: No. I got a few books from the l 60   but they didn't help much. Then I decided to go to evening classes so that I could learn b 61   carpentry and electrics.

J: What sort of changes did you make to the house?

M: First of all, practical things to help Paul. You never really realize the problems handicapped people have until it a 62  your own family. Most government buildings, for example, have steps up to the door. They ignore the d  63  of the handicapped people. We used to live in a flat and of course it was totally unsuitable.

One possible version:

One day, a mother and son were taking a walk when they saw a little girl fall over. The boy wanted to help her up but his mother stopped him and said, "Don't do that, otherwise others will think it was you who knocked her down." A few days later, when she got home, the mother was shocked at seeing her son just let the fallen oil bottle lie on the ground. She asked him why he didn't put it in place, but the boy talked back, "If I had straightened the bottle up, you would have thought that I did it."

   I disagree with what the mother did in the story. I think parents should not only care for their children's health, but their minds. They should let their children know it's a pleasure to help others who are in trouble.
