    Crosswalk-This is a sign that indicates people have the right of way to cross the street，so cars have to stop when they see a person waiting next to one of these signs．
    Second row：
    do not enter-This sign indicates you are not allowed to enter a road at that point．

    Playground-This is the sign used to alert drivers that there is a playground nearby，so it is a good idea to slow down and watch for children．

    7．Do you have a habit of writing things down？Making time to write down certain things，such as our daily experiences，our goals，and our thoughts can change the way we live our lives．Here are 4ways that tell you writing things down can change your life．
    （1）It clears your mind for higher-level thinking．
    You can clear your mind by writing things down in two different ways：writing to-do lists and writing morning pages．David Allen，the author of Getting Things Done suggests writing down every task，activity and project you need to pay attention to．Writing down every"to-do"item that you can think of clears space in your head for more important topics．You can also write"morning pages"，which was pioneered by Julia Cameron，author of The Artist's Way．Morning pages involves（牵涉）what's important in your mind．Through doing this first thing each morning，you clear your head in preparation for the day's most important thinking．
    （2）It gives you a record of the past．
    If you keep a diary and regularly write down your thoughts and feelings，you'll soon have a record of your experiences．Keeping a diary is sometimes like talking a situation through with a friend．Reading back through this record also provides a valuable record about your past thought and feelings．You can recall some special moments or special events that you could have forgotten．Many people have dreams of writing a book．When you keep writing down things，you'll realize that you have written a book．
    （3）You have a sense of achievement．
    Writing things down can help you get a sense of achievement and can also raise your levels of self-trust．When you look back to see how successfully you've gone through and dealt with important decisions and difficult situations in the past，you'll have a sense of achievement and feel more confident in your ability to achieve your goals．Equally，if we write down everything we need to do in a special day or week，we have a sense of satisfaction （满足） when，having completed the task，we can cross the item off our list．
    （4）It helps you think big．
    Writing things down gives you space to think big and aim high．When we write things down，we enter a world of possibility and have a chance to make further plans．Writing our goals and dreams down makes it more likely that we'll achieve them one day．Writing down our goals is therefore the first step towards making them a reality．

    66．Julia Cameron may most probably agree thatA．
    A．writing down what's important every morning can clear your head
    B．people must read morning pages in an artist way every morning
    C．what David Allen said in his book is less helpful for clearing your head
    D．writing to-do lists is all you need to do before work starts each day
    67．By keeping a diary，you canB．
    A．talk a situation through with a friend
    B．keep a record of the past experiences
    C．forget your past life experiences
    D．ignore special events and moments
    68．We have a sense of satisfaction when a task has been completed in a（an）C．
    A．activity
    B．project
    C．to-do list
    D．game
    69．The underlined phrase"think big"is similar in meaning toD．
    A．make a dream
    B．write a to-do list
    C．do a work plan
    D．set a high goal
    70．The author of the passage intends to tell usA．
    A．writing things down can change our life
    B．we need to think big and aim high
    C．people need to record the past events
    D．it's important to clear our mind．

    11．The practice of exchanging foreign currency can vary by country．In one country，you may have to change your money at the airport，and in other countries you may need to buy your foreign currency in advance．Here are some places you can exchange foreign currency for U．S．currency．
    Your Bank
    In many cases you can purchase U．S．currency for your trip from a bank．Banks tend to have higher exchange rates than some currency exchange businesses．Before you purchase currency from a bank，check the currency change rates for that day so you can compare the rate the bank is giving and determine if it's a good offer．There is a fee involved in withdrawing foreign currency from your bank．
    The Airport
    Currency exchange businesses can be found at most international airports，so you can purchase U．S．currency either before you board your flight or at the U．S．airport on arrival．Note that U．S．airports typically have fewer currency exchange counters than travelers are accustomed to seeing in other parts of the world．If the airport you are flying into is not in a major U．S．city，consider using the exchange service in your departure airport to be on the safe side．If you are in an airport where several exchange companies operate，be sure to shop around for the best rate and lowest exchange fee．

    56．The practice of exchanging foreign currencyC．
    A．changes with time of the year
    B．depends on exchange rates of the day
    C．is likely to differ from country to country
    D．is exactly the same all over the world
    57．Before purchasing foreign currency from a bank，you are advised toD．
    A．deposit some money with the bank
    B．examine the services of the bank
    C．pay the exchange fee in advance
    D．compare the exchange rates
    58．In which case are you advised to consider using the exchange service in your departure airport？D
    A．If you are flying with a foreign airline．
    B．If the airport is far from the city center．
    C．If the airport you are flying into is not safe．
    D．If you are not flying into a major US city．
    59．The passage is mainly aboutA．
    A．currency exchange
    B．exchange fees
    C．American airports
    D．U．S．currency．

    12．Two recent studies have found that punishment is not the best way to influence behavior．
        One showed that adults are much more cooperative if they work in a system based on rewards．Researchers at Harvard University in the United States did the study．They had about 200 college students play a game known as the Prisoner's Dilemma．The game is based on the tension between the interests of an individual and a group．
    The students played in groups of four．Each player could win points for the group，so they would all gain equally．But each player could also reward or punish each of the other three players，at a cost to the punisher．
    Harvard researcher David Rand says the most successful behavior proved to be cooperation．The groups that rewarded it the most earned about twice as much in the game as the groups that rewarded it the least．
    And the more a group punished itself，the lower its earnings．The group with the most punishment earned 25% less than the group with the least punishment．
    The other study involved children．Researchers used intelligence tests given to two groups．More than 800 children were ages two to four the first time they were tested．More than 700 children were ages five to nine．
    The two groups were retested four years later，and the study compared the results with the first test．Both groups contained children whose parents used physical punishment and children whose parents did not．
    The study says the IQs-or intelligence quotients-of the younger children who were not spanked（掴）were five points higher than those who were．In the older group，the difference was almost three points．
    Murray Strauss from the University of New Hampshire has written extensively about physical punishment of children．He says the more they are spanked，the slower their mental development．He also looked at average IQs in other nations and found them lower where spanking was more common．
    67．Which of the following is True about the game mentioned in the first paragraph？C
    A．Prisoners are more interested in the first game than the university students．
    B．The game is very popular with the students in Harvard University in the United States．
    C．The game is played to test whether people are more cooperative on the basis of rewards．
    D．The game is played in order to encourage the students to cooperate．
    68．The underlined part in the third paragraph means the punisher will have toB．
    A．lose some of his money              
    B．lose some of the points
    C．lose all the points of the group         
    D．gain the points of the punished
    69．What does the result of the first experiment imply？A
    A．Rewards encourage better cooperation than punishments．
    B．Individual interests are always a challenge to the group．
    C．Four members will work better in one group．
    D．The group that punished most gained nothing eventually．
    70．What do we know about the second experiment in the passage？A
    A．The whole experiment，including two tests，lasted four years．
    B．Physical punishment was employed only in the younger group．
    C．Children in both groups have acquired same IQ development．
    D．No physical punishment was used in the younger group．
