    1．假如你是李华．你的美国朋友Mike最近因学习压力大患上了轻度的焦虑症（anxiety disorders），写信向你求助．请你用英文给他回一封信，就如何处理压力给他一些建议．
    注意：词数100左右（信的开头已给出，但不计入总词数）．
    Dear Mike，
    I am sorry to hear that you are suffering from anxiety disorders due to the great stress of studying．
    Here I would like to give you some suggestions about dealing with your stress．
    First，you ought to learn to study hard as well as relax if necessary．As an old saying goes，all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy．When tired，you can go walking or do some sports with your classmates．Secondly，as is well known，stress is to us what water is to fish，but do not give yourself too much stress or you may feel frustrated and tired，which is bad for your health．Thirdly，I think it would be beneficial if you could share some of your inner emotions with your friends，parents or teachers．
    I hope you will find these suggestions helpful．
    Best wishes，
    Li Hua．

    19．In East Africa，the sport of cycling has been growing in popularity in recent years．There are plenty of hills for cyclists to climb and a mild climate-not too hot，but not too cold．In addition，two-time Tour de France winner Chris Froome was born in Kenya．
    Now an area 50 kilometers southeast of Nairobi is seeking to become Kenya's center for cycling．But with hills in Kenya rising as high as 1，600 meters above sea level，cycling the countryside is anything but effortless．That makes Machakos County，Kenya，a good place to test the abilities of East African cyclists during the Tour de Machakos．

    Alex Tibwitta organized the Tour de Machakos．He says Machakos has it all-nice hills，good roads and a government that supports the cycling community．"I'm pretty confident that with the right promotion，this is definitely the best place to base a sort of cycling in Kenya，and probably in East Africa，"he said．
    The Tour de Machakos covers 400 kilometers around Machakos County．It is the biggest road race in Kenya．This year there were 130 registered cyclists-double the number from last year．

    3．Experts have been advising for years that sharing your goals with other people increases your commitment to them．When you do，you feel accountable．You feel as if you're on your way to success．But it turns out we got it all wrong．
    Some psychologists have found that by telling someone your goal，you are actually less likely to achieve them．By giving voice to your goal，you feel like you've taken a huge step forward．Unfortunately，this feeling-called"social reality"-is just a feeling．You haven't actually achieved anything yet．
    Saying your goal out loud widens the gap between what you intend to do and what you actually do．It keeps your goals away from your actions．However，by keeping your goals secret，you maintain the drive to keep moving forward．You feel like there's still a lot of work to do．
    Telling others your goals is an unhealthy way to seek approval，according to Dr．Robert Anthony．"By announcing your goals，you will lose lots of valuable energy needed to achieve them，as well as get negative opinions from those who wish to control you．They dislike seeing anyone laving more or doing better than they do，"he explains．
    Saying your goals usually shows that you are fantasizing success．Another study found that merely fantasizing about a positive future might reduce your ability to find problems and make good plans．Don't get fantasizing about  success and expecting success mixed up．When you fantasize，there's not always a basis in reality．When you expecting success，you are confident in the result based on the actions and skills you've developed so far．
    Thus，you know what to do the next time you feel like opening your mouth about your exciting new ideas or goals．Meanwhile，Michael Hyatt，a psychologist，points out that，while this probably works well for a single person，it may not be the best advice for organizations．If a leader's role is to inspire the organization to work towards some aims，secrecy doesn't seem to be productive．

    28．What do we know about"social reality"？C
    A．It is a real situation existing in life．
    B．It refers to some facts happening in society．
    C．It doesn't help you reach your goals．
    D．It means you have done something successfully．
    29．Why is telling others your goals not a good way to seek approval？B
    A．Because it wasters your energy and time．
    B．Because not all people wish you to become successful．
    C．Because you are likely to change your goals easily．
    D．Because nobody will pay attention to your goals．
    30．The difference between fantasizing success and expecting success lies inA．
    A．whether there is a basis in reality or not
    B．whether you are confident or not
    C．whether the goal is shared or not
    D．whether there are good plans or not
    31．What is Michael Hyatt's suggestion for a team leader？D
    A．Keeping the team's goal a secret．
    B．Making the team's goal known to the public．
    C．Preventing the team members from fantasizing success．
    D．Sharing the team's goal among the team members．

    20．I was lucky enough to have a chance to study in the United States as an international student from Ukraine when I was fourteen years old．I went to a wonderful school，West Catholic High School，for my freshman year．
    I remember my first day at that school as if it were yesterday．I was very nervous，and I could feel my heartbeat on the tips of my toes．My main fear was that I would not be able to express myself due to the language barrier．I was trying to have as little communication as I possibly could．And I almost succeeded，until we had to introduce ourselves in front of the class．
    And the moment the word"international"flew out of my mouth，I was surrounded by thirty people who were asking questions one after another．I remember some of the questions were"Where is Ukraine？Is it a kingdom？""Do you have McDonald's？Does it taste the same？"and"Say something in your language"．It turned out to be the opposite of less communication，but it was so much fun．
    During the first three months，I certainly experienced a bit of cultural shock．I think Americans are the nicest people I have ever met in my entire life．They always smile and say，"Hi，how are you？"
    One day，I noticed the students looking at me suspiciously．Finally，my classmate came up to my locker and whispered，"Is that true that you are a princess and that you came to study here so that nobody would recognize you？"At one point，I even had an image of myself wearing a gown （长袍） and waving at the crowd．What？People do have a wild imagination!
    During my study abroad experience，I saw a totally new world，experienced great culture，met a lot of incredible people and improved my language．This trip inspired me to learn foreign languages．That is one of the reasons why I speak five different languages today．

    25．Why was the author afraid on the first day of school？D
    A．Because she was eager to talk with others．
    B．Because she couldn't learn a new language without a teacher's help．
    C．Because she was not good at the subjects in this school．
    D．Because she could not communicate with others well．
    26．What happened when the word"international"flew out of the author's mouth？A
    A．Her classmates showed interest in her country．
    B．Her classmates played a joke on her．
    C．Her classmates were eager to make friends with her．
    D．Her classmates tried to know less about the author's hometown．
    27．What can we learn from the text？C
    A．The author was a princess from Ukraine．
    B．The author couldn't adapt to the school environment later．
    C．The author got lots of benefits through studying abroad．
    D．The author always told her classmates about her cultural background．

    14．One afternoon，after finishing shopping in a supermarket，my family and I went to the checkout．I suddenly thought we didn't need any of the junk，and we abandoned all of those，saving $300．
    That got me thinking about all our pointless expenses in life．With a promise that we'd stop if it was killing us，I convinced the family to take the leap into frugality（节俭）．The rules were that we would buy nothing for 30 days except absolutely essentials．
    Our adventure began with a great start．By 9 a．m．，my wife，Ruth，had already made cakes from old strawberries and picked flowers I didn't even know we had in the garden．I cleared the car by hand for the first time for years．I read and returned the neighbor's newspaper before he woke up．Total spending on the first day：$0．
    As days turned into weeks，we became so proficient（熟练的）at living frugally．We started riding our bikes to save gas．My child's finger painting was recycled as gift wrap for the homemade presents．We started to use an Internet application like Skype for free phone calls and ask neighbors with gardens for extra vegetables and herbs．
     In the end，we saved more than $2000 by not spending for a month．When we began，I imagined we would rush out the moment we were done and buy a lot of things in the supermarket，then maybe hit the mall or go to the movies．
