For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.(A)When (41)_____________(ask) to point out one or two things that are most important to themselves, many put friends ahead (42)___________ homes, jobs, clothes and cars.A true friendship carries a long history of experience that determines who we are and(43)__________(keep) us connected. It is a treasure we should protect. Unfortunately, the better friends you are, the (44)________ (probable) you’ll have disagreements. And the result can be what you don’t want— an end to the relationship.The good news is (45)_________ most troubled friendships can be mende d. First, don’t let your pride get in your way. Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in the open. Second, (46)_________(apologize) when you’re wrong --– (47)______ _____ you’ve been wronged. Over the course of a friendship, even the best people make mistakes. Sometimes, it may be best if the wronged person takes the lead and apologizes. When you apologize, give your friend a chance to admit that he has been wrong. Third, see things from your friend’s point of view. And finally, accept that friendships change as our needs and lifestyle change. Making friends can sometimes seem easy. The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the natural ups and downs that have an effect on all relationships. My suggestion: Consider friendship (48)_________ honor and a gift, and worth the effort to treasure and nurture (培养).（B）Fear (49)__________ be felt in the heart as well as in the head, according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting（收缩）and pumping blood around their bodies, compared with the point (50)________ the heartbeat is relaxed. Scientists say the results suggested that the heart is able to influence (51)___________ the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Me dical School said, “Our study show for the first time that the way (52)___________ we deal with fear is different, depending on when we seefearful pictures in relation to our heart.The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr. Garfinkel said, “The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping (53)_________ when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we don’t see — and guid e whether we see fear.”(54)_________ (understand) this relationship further, the scientists also used a brain scanner to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person’s feeling of fear. “So far we (55)___________(find) an important mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’ to each other to change our feelings and reduce fear” Dr. Garfinkel said. “We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety, disorders, and also for (56)__________ who are suffering from serious stress disorder.”Section CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can onlyWalking, if you do it vigorously enough, is the overall best exercise for regular physical activity. It requires no equipment, everyone knows how to do it and it carries the 57 risk of injury. The human body is designed to walk. You can walk in parks or along a river or in your neighborhood. To get 58 benefit from walking, aim for 45 minutes a day, an average of five days a week.Strength training is another important 59 of physical activity. Its purpose is to build and 60 bone and muscle mass, both of which shrink with age. In general, you will want to do strength training two or three days a week, 61 recovery days between sessions.Finally, flexibility and balance training are 62 important as the body ages. Aches and pains are high on the list of complaints in old age. The result of constant muscle tension and stiffness of joints, many of them are 63 , and simple flexibility training can 64 these by making muscles stronger and keeping joints lubricated (润滑). Some of this you do whenever you stretch. If you watch dogs and c ats, you’ll get an idea of how natural it is. The general 65 is simple: whenever the body has been in one position for a while, it is good to 66 stretch it in an opposite position.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The responsibilities of job, home and family all too often transform the daily routine into a huge burden. Enjoying quality leisure time becomes 67 .True leisure means engaging in a 68 and rewarding activity without being 69by other aspects of your life. Sometimes, the 70 you experience during the week make you place great emphasis on weekends and other days off. You hope to relax, but the stress is 71 . You can't rest even when you have the time to do so. When time is limited, leisure activities are usually the first items to 72 from the daily schedule.If you routinely 73 your leisure time because you have "more important things to do," you may be underestimating how much time the things 74 take. Most people routinely shortchange themselves on the amount of time required to complete a given task. The problem is a 75 to evaluate performance honestly.76 , simplifying your life will let you have more windows of opportunity to do stuff just for fun. Maybe you need to relearn to relax.Spare Time for Your 77 : Devote one afternoon or evening per week 78 to doing something that you enjoy, listening to music, assembling a jigsaw puzzle. Do whatever you always wish to but never seem to find time for. And do it where there's nothing to remind you of other 79 .Choose Low-Tech: The popular fascination with technological advances in all areas of life has diverted(偏离) attention from the simple pleasures of many 80 pastimes.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Here is one of the w orld’s largest indoor ski-slopes. It covers an area of 22,500m2, about the same size as three football fields, and the temperature is a constant -1℃to -2℃. However, the strangest thing about this place is that it’s in the middle of the desert! It’s called Ski Dubai and the outside temperature s can rise to more than 40℃!It sounds crazy, but it just shows how serious people are about having fun. We spend huge sums on sports facilities. We pay our sports stars ridiculous amounts of money. And we spend hour after hour playing games! I wonder if all the sports - lovers and game - players in the world aren’t a little crazy. I know I am. I was once drivin g past a football field where some kids were playing. I turned to watch and crashed my car. I know it’s stupid but I can do nothing about it. As someone said, “Football isn’t a matter of life and death. It’s much more important than that!”Of course, it i sn’t that important really. No game is. But the problem is that games are addictive. From the tennis court to the golf course, you’ll find participants and spectators who can’t live without the drug of their choice. It could be a good thing. After all, despite being addictive, it’s true that sports and games help us to relax. Maybe if it wasn’t for sport, our societies would be more violent. Perhaps sport is a substitute for war? It’s hard to think of a quieter, more peaceful game than chess, and what’s the objective? Capturing your opponent’s king, and surely, it’s better to have wars in athletics stadiums rather than on battlefields.What’s more, playing is natural. Kittens chase balls of wool and puppies pretend to fight. Games help us perfect ours kills and prepare us for the serious contest of survival.But do all games help us relax and stay away from violence? What about computer games? A recent article in New Scientist suggest s that playing violent video games (and most of them are extremely violent) makes people more aggressive and more likely to commit violent crimes.Are these games a rehearsal for life or a substitute for life? Do we play instead of facing up to our real problems? I don’t know. But what I do know is that I need a break, something to help me relax. Skiing would be nice. I wonder how much it costs to get to Dubai?82. According to the author, the most surprising thing about Ski Dubai is its _____.A. slopesB. sizeC. locationD. facilities83. The expression “the drug of their choice” in the 3rd paragraph refers to _____.A. the game they are keen onB. the medicine they takeC. the activity good for healthD. the sport in place of war84. Which of the following statements does the author most probably agree with?A. Sports stars should be paid more to play well.B. Sports are more important than life and death.C. Chess is too peaceful to be considered a sport.D. Games can make one relaxed as well as violent.85. What does the author mainly talk about in the passage ?A. The relationship between games and crimes .B. Human natural craze for having fun with games.C. Serious concerns about time that is spent on games.D. Real problems facing game players in everyday life.(B)Across the rich world, well-educated people increasingly work longer than the less-skilled. Some 65% of American men aged 62-74 with a professional degree are in the workforce, compared with 32% of men with only a high-school certificate. This gap is part of a deepening divide between the well-education well off and the unskilled poor. Rapid technological advance has raised the incomes of the highly skilled while squeezing those of the unskilled. The consequences, for individual and society, are profound.The world is facing as astonishing rise in the number of old people, and they will live longer than ever before. Over the next 20 years the global population of those aged 65 or more will almost double, from 600 million to 1.1 billion. The experience of the 20th century, when greater longevity (长寿)translated into more years in retirement rather than more years at work, has persuaded many observers that this shift will lead to slower economic growth, while the swelling ranks of pensioners will create government budget problems.But the notion of a sharp division between the working young and the idle old misses a new trend, the growing gap between the skilled and the unskilled. Employment rates are falling among younger unskilled people, whereas older skilled folk are working longer. The divide is most extreme in America, where well-educated baby-boomers are putting off retirement while many less-skilled younger people have dropped out of the workforce.That even the better-off must work longer to have a comfortable retirement. But the changing nature of work also plays a big role. Pay has risen sharply for the highly educated, and those people continue to reap rich rewards into old age because these days the educated elderly are more productive than the preceding generation. Technological change may well reinforce that shift: the skills that complement computers, from management knowhow to creativity. Do not necessarily decline with age.86、what is happening in the workforce in rich countries?A. younger people are replacing the elderlyB. well-educated people tend to work longerC. unemployment rates are rising year after yearD. people with no college degree do not easily find work87、what do many observers predict in view of the experience of the 20th century?A. Economic growth will slow down.B. Government budgets will increase.C. More people will try to pursue higher educationD. There will be more competition in the job market.88、What is the result of policy changes in European countries?A. Unskilled workers may choose to retire early.B. more people have to receive in-service training.C. Even wealthy people must work longer to live comfortably in retirement.D. People may be able to enjoy generous defined-benefits from pension plans.89、What is characteristic of work in the 21st century?A. Computers will do more complicated work.B. More will be taken by the educated young.C. Most jobs to be done will be creative ones.D. Skills are highly valued regardless of age.(C)At the heart of the debate over illegal immigration lies one key question: are immigrants good or bad for the economy? The American public overwhelmingly thinks they're bad. Yet the consensus among most economists is that immigration, both legal and illegal, provides a small net boost to the economy. Immigrants provide cheap labor, lower the prices of everything from farmproduce to new homes, and leave consumers with a little more money in their pockets. So why is there such a discrepancy between the perception of immigrants' impact on the economy and the reality?There are a number of familiar theories. Some argue that people are anxious and feel threatened by an inflow of new workers. Others highlight the strain that undocumented immigrants place on public services, like schools, hospitals, and jails. Still others emphasize the role of race, arguing that foreigners add to the nation's fears and insecurities. There's some truth to all these explanations, but they aren't quite sufficient.To get a better understanding of what's going on, consider the way immigration's impact is felt. Though its overall effect may be positive, its costs and benefits are distributed unevenly. David Card, an economist at UC Berkeley, notes that the ones who profit most directly from immigrants' low-cost labor are businesses and employers – meatpacking plants in Nebraska, for instance, or agricultural businesses in California. Granted, these producers' savings probably translate into lower prices at the grocery store, but how many consumers make that mental connection at the checkout counter? As for the drawbacks of illegal immigration, these, too, are concentrated. Native low-skilled workers suffer most from the competition of foreign labor. According to a study by George Borjas, a Harvard economist, immigration reduced the wages of Americanhigh-school dropouts by 9% between 1980-2000.Among high-skilled, better-educated employees, however, opposition was strongest in states with both high numbers of immigrants and relatively generous social services. What worried them most, in other words, was the fiscal (财政的)burden of immigration. That conclusion was reinforced by another finding: that their opposition appeared to soften when that fiscal burden decreased, as occurred with welfare reform in the 1990s, which curbed immigrants' access to certain benefits.The irony is that for all the overexcited debate, the net effect of immigration is minimal. Even for those most acutely affected – say, low-skilled workers, or California residents – the impactisn't all that dramatic. "The unpleasant voices have tended to dominate our perceptions," says Daniel Tichenor, a political science professor at the University of Oregon. "But when all those factors are put together and the economists calculate the numbers, it ends up being a net positive, but a small one." Too bad most people don't realize it.90. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A) Whether immigrants are good or bad for the economy has been puzzling economists.B) The American economy used to thrive on immigration but now it's a different story.C) The consensus among economists is that immigration should not be encouraged.D) The general public thinks differently from most economists on the impact of immigration.91. In what way does the author think ordinary Americans benefit from immigration?A) They can access all kinds of public services.B) They can get consumer goods at lower prices.C) They can mix with people of different cultures.D) They can avoid doing much of the manual labor.92. What is the chief concern of native high-skilled, better-educated employees about the inflowof immigrants?A) It may change the existing social structure.B) It may pose a threat to their economic status.C) It may lead to social instability in the country.D) It may place a great strain on the state budget.93. What is the irony about the debate over immigration?A) Even economists can't reach a consensus about its impact.B) Those who are opposed to it turn out to benefit most from it.C) People are making too big a fuss about something of small impact.D) There is no essential difference between seemingly opposite opinions.Section CDirections: Read the following passage carefully. In the passage there are four sentences missing. Choose the best one from the six sentences.ForgivenessTo forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research.____1____ Try the following steps:Calm yourself. ____2____ You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.Don't wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don't see things the same way. If you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time. Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.Take the control away from your offender(冒犯者). Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.____4____ If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender's point of view.Don't forget to forgive yourself. ____5____ But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don't do it.A. Why should you forgive?B. How should you start to forgive?C. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.D. Try to see things from your offender's angle.E. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.F. To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.Section DBased on the following passage and write a summaryFinancial setbacks in the form of pay cuts are having a trickle-down effect(涓滴效应) as the depression persists. Families across America are cutting or even axing kids’ allowance (零用钱) to reflect what’s going on with household finances and the economy as a whole .Some jobless parents are doing it out of necessity .Other parents are using allowance adjustments to teach children about economic realities and how to budget in leaner times.“Try to use relevant news to explain the reasons behind the depression and how it’s hitting home. If they see it obvious in their own allowance, they’ll feel the impact and see how it all ties in,”says financial consultant Antwone Harris.Any reduction in allowance should be understood in age-appropriate communication, says Dr. Tony Meyer, a child psychiatrist(精神科医生) and medical director of Aurora Psychiatric Hospital. Six to 12-year-olds are mature enough for a frank talk, but don’t set them back with a lot of details. It’s sufficient to say their allowance is lower because Mom and Dad is getting paid less at work ,so there’s less money for the family to spend. With 12 to 18-year-olds, you can broaden the discussion to include the banking crisis and other factors that contributed to the depression, Meyer says. Younger kids have the idea that they’re at the center of things, and adolescents by nature are especially self-concerned . “They’ll think they’re responsible, ”Meyer says.A cut in allowance might seem punishing, so the message that the child is not at fault needs to come across. Depending on the child’s age, “You can also ask them to bring some income by working a job or helping more around the house so Mom or Dad can work more,” he says. Kids。
