| A woman I know stood on the bathroom scales (浴室磅秤) after two weeks of diet and hard exercise around the park. The needle was 1 , stuck on the number where she had started. This struck her as 2 of how things had been going lately. She was destined (注定) never to be happy. As she dressed, feeling her tight jeans, she 3 a ten-pound note in her pocket. Then her sister phoned with a 4 story. When she hurried out to the car-annoyed that she had to get petrol-she discovered her flat mate had already 5 the tank for her. And this was a woman who thought she'd 6 be happy. Every day, it seems, we're 7 with advice about happiness. The cruel message is that there's something we' re supposed to do to be 8 (make the right choices, or have the right set of beliefs about ourselves.) Coupled with this is the 9 that happiness is a permanent condition. If we are not joyful all the time, we 10 there's a problem. Yet what most people 11 is not a permanent state of happiness. It is something more ordinary, a 12 of what the American writer Hugh Prather once called "unsettled problem, ambiguous 13 and vague (不明确的) defeats with few moments of clear peace." Maybe you wouldn't say yesterday was a happy day, 14 , you had a quarrel with your boss. But weren't there moments of happiness, moments of 15 ? Now that you think about it. 16 , there a letter from an old friend, or a stranger who asked where you got such a good haircut? You remember having a bad day, yet those good moments 17 . So in my opinion, happiness is an 18 , not a condition. It's spending a pleasant hour organizing your closet. It is your family assembled at dinner. It's in the present not in the 19 promise of a "someday when…". How luckier we are and how much more happiness we experience-if we can fall in love with the life we are 20 . | ||||

| If you're a male and you're reading this, congratulations! You're a survivor. According to statistics, you're more than twice as likely to die of skin cancer as a woman, and nine times more likely to die of AIDS. Assuming you make it to the end of your natural term, about 78 years for men in Australia, you'll die on average five years before a woman. There're many reasons for this-typically, men take more risks than women and are more likely to drink and smoke but perhaps more importantly, men don't go to the doctor. "Men aren't seeing doctors as often as they should," says Dr. Gullotta. "This is particularly so for the over- 40s, when diseases tend to strike. According to a recent survey, 95% of women aged between 15 and early 40s see a doctor once a year, compared to 70% of men in the same age group. "A lot of men think they're unbeatable," Gullotta says. "They only come in when a friend drops dead on the golf course and they think, Geez, if it could happen to him …" Then there's the ostrich (鸵鸟) approach. "Some men are scared of what might be there and would rather not know," says Dr. Ross Cartmill. "Most men get their cars serviced more regularly than they service their bodies," Cartmill says. He believes most diseases that commonly affect men could be addressed by preventive check-ups. "Prevention is cheaper in the long run than having to treat the diseases. Besides, the final cost is far greater, it's called premature death." |

| 3. Which of the following best completes the underlined sentence "Geez, if it could happen to him..." (in Para 4)? |
| A. I should consider myself lucky. B. it would be a big misfortune. C. I should avoid playing golf. D. it could happen to me, too. |
| 4. What does Dr. Ross Cartmill mean by the ostrich approach (in Para 5)? |
| A. A casual attitude towards one s health conditions. B. Unwillingness to find out about one's disease because of fear. C. Refusal to get medical treatment for fear of the pain involved. D. A new treatment for certain psychological problems. |

| Some years ago, a Miami woman walking through an office building noticed two men standing together. Several minutes after her leaving, the men murdered a person working in the building. The police determined that the woman was the only witness and could possibly describe them. However, her memory of the men proved disappointingly unclear. Several days later, psychologist Ronald Fisher was brought in to obtain a more complete account from the woman. His interview produced a breakthrough-the woman reported a clear picture of one of the suspects. The important information enabled the police to arrest the suspect and close the case. The police asked Fisher for help because of his rich knowledge in cognitive (认知的) interview, a kind of memory-rebuilding process. Memory researchers have found that people trying to remember a past event often only recall part of the relevant information. Human memory is selective and it is often distorted by stress. But a person's accurate recall of an event or understanding of a question can be improved using specific interviewing techniques. The "cognitive interview" was developed in the late 1990s. It encourages the witness to take an active role in recalling information rather than giving answers only to someone else's questions. The witness first describes what happened in his or her own words, with no interviewer interruptions. The interviewer then goes further with specific techniques, such as having the witness tell the detail', of what happened from different perspectives (角度). The cognitive interview focuses on guiding witnesses through four general recalling techniques: thinking about physical surroundings and personal feelings that existed at the time of past events; reporting everything that comes to mind about those events, no matter how broken it is; retelling events in a variety of time orders, such as from beginning to end, end to beginning, forward or backward; and adopting different perspectives while recalling events. Experiments with police detectives trained in this demanding interview method find that they obtain nearly 50% more information from witnesses than before training, while error rates remain about the same. It is proved that cognitive interviews are quite important tools in improving the accuracy and completeness of witness testimony (证词). |
| 1. The purpose of the passage is to _____. |
| A. give an account of a murder case B. help a witness to recall information in a cognitive interview C. prove Fisher was an expert in cognitive interview D. introduce an idea of cognitive interview |
| 2. What is required to recall in a cognitive interview for a witness? |
| A. The surroundings and feelings at the time of the event. B. The information about the event in the time order. C. The important things that come to his or her mind. D. The exact time at which a murder took place. |
| 3. The key point in a cognitive interview is that _____. |
| A. the interview should take place outside the police station B. the interviewer should interrupt the witness from time to time C. the witness is encouraged to take part in recalling information D. the witness should recall details at the scene of the event |
| 4. The underlined word "distorted" in the passage probably means "_____." |
| A. changed B. balanced C. arranged D. examined |

| Doomed (注定失败的) beauties such as Cleopatra and Marilyn Monroe were far from alone in their misery(痛苦, 不幸). Very attractive people tend to form partnerships that are less stable and satisfying than those enjoyed by plain Jane. According to the research by Dr John Blaine of the University of Southern California, relationships between people whose professions largely depend on their appearances, such as, models or actors, tend to end much faster than those between lawyers, doctors or students. Blaine said the beautiful felt different from childhood. They are treated as special, which may create both arrogance (傲慢) and insecurity. All too often, beauty can be used as an alternative to education. Often they are pushed out of their class or town, told to go off and make their fortune in Hollywood or London and, when the majority fail, they have few talents to make a living. Blaine added that beautiful people score poorly on the "big five"-the key factors American experts consider when helping distressed couples. These are neuroticism (神经过敏), including anger and anxiety; extroversion (性格外向); openness to new experiences; agreeableness; and conscientiousness, or sticking by agreements they have made. Attractive people often see no reason to try to change until their looks start to fade. Krista Sutherland of the University of California Los Angeles, said partnerships that appeared to be perfect from the outside, such as the former "dream teams" of Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise or Hugh Grant and Elizabeth Hurley, where backgrounds and aspirations (抱负) are often shared, did not necessarily lead to happiness. |
| 1. What does the underlined sentence "Doomed beauties such as Cleopatra and Marilyn Monroe were far from alone in their misery" means? |
| A. Beautiful women always felt lonely. B. Beautiful women were always alone. C. Beautiful women always lived a happy life. D. Many beautiful women didn't end up with a happy life in terms of relationship. |
| 2. We can infer in the passage that _____. |
| A. The marriage of the beautiful often lasts long B. Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise were very satisfied with their life C. When they fail in Hollywood, the beautiful have little trouble in making a living D. Hugh Grant and Elizabeth Hurley were a couple |
| 3. Which of the following is the best title? |
| A. Five key factors affecting the partnership. B. Beauties or common? C. Beauties are doomed to fail in love. D. The beautiful are different |

| Cold weather has a great effect, on how our minds and our bodies work. Maybe that is why there are so many expressions that use the word "cold". For centuries, the body's blood has been linked closely with the emotions. People who show no human emotions or feelings, for example, are said to be cold-blooded. Cold-blooded people act in a merciless way. They may do brutal things to others, and not by accident. For example, a newspaper says the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. The killer murdered someone, not in self-defense. He seemed to kill with no emotion. Cold can affect other parts of the body, the feet, for example. Heavy socks can warm your feet, if your feet are really cold. But there is an expression-to get cold feet-that has nothing to do with cold or your feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you had decided to do. For example, you agree to be president of an organization. But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned. All the work of the organization will be your responsibility. You are likely to gel cold feet about being president when you understand the situation. Cold can also affect your shoulder. You "give someone the cold shoulder" when you refuse to speak to them. You treat them in a distant, cold way. The expression probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face-to-face. You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise: he made to you. Or, to someone who has lied about you to others. "A cold fish" is not a fish. It if a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and show no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone. "Out in the cold" is an expression often heard. It means not getting something that everybody else got. A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise. He was left out in the cold. And it is not a pleasant place to be. |
| 1. The text is intended to tell us that _____. |
| A. cold weather has a great effect on human bodies B. "cold" is a word closely linked with human emotions C. many English expressions contain the word "cold" D. the word "cold" has many different meanings in English |
| 2. The underlined word "brutal" in paragraph 1 most probably means _____. |
| A. Cold-blooded B. illegal C. impolite D. extreme |
| 3. Which phrase can best describe a person who is unwilling to offer anything to others? |
| A. Cruel. B. To get cold feet. C. A cold fish. D. A cold shoulder. |
| 4. If the teacher gives all the boys except Tom a pen as a prize, you can say he _____. |
| A. is given the cold shoulder B. is punished by a cold fish C. has got cold feet D. is left out in the cold |

| Autumn blues? Let the sunshine in. Falling leaves, withering flowers, cold winds, faint sunshine. 1_____ Spirits can be low. People who suffer from "the autumn blues" often are extremely exhausted, lack energy, need more sleep, feel increased appetite and gain weight. "The exact cause of this condition, often called seasonal depression or seasonal affective disorder (SAD), is not known yet," says Chen Jue, associate professor at Shanghai Mental Health Center. "But recent studies indicate that weather change is influential and strongly suggest that this condition is caused by changes in the availability of sunlight." One theory is that with decreased exposure to sunlight, the biological clock that regulates mood, sleep, and hormones is delayed, running more slowly in winter. 2_____. Another theory is that brain chemicals that transmit information between nerves may be altered (改变) in individuals with SAD. It is believed that exposure to light can correct these imbalances. "3_____ Remember, spring always lives in your heart," Chen says. Here are some tips to deed with autumn depression. ·Go outdoors and get some sunlight. Move around. Fresh air and exercise improve the respiratory (呼吸) system and blood circulation and regulate the nervous system. Thus, exercise is calming and relieves one's mood. ·Relax at work. Stretch, breathe deeply. Take a tea break. Think of your next vacation. ·4_____ Chocolate and sugar raise the spirits. ·Look at bright colors, such as red and orange. Color therapy improves mood. ·Listen to your favorite music. You can dance to it, or just lie on a cozy couch, reading a novel. ·5_____ Blooming plants are cheering. ·Call friends or family when you feel lonely or depressed. Recall some happy memories. |
