10.When Mary Moore began her high school in 1951,her mother told her,"Be sure and take a typing course so when this show business thing doesn't work out,you'll have something to rely on."Mary responded in typical teenage fashion.From that moment on,"the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course,"she recalls.
The show business thing worked out,of course.In her career,Mary won many awards.Only recently,when she began to write Growing Up Again,did she regret ignoring her mom,"I don't know how to use a computer,"she admits.
Unlike her 1995autobiography,After All,her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病).All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF),an organization she serves as international chairman."I felt there was a need for a book like this,"she says."I didn't want to lecture,but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we're self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease."
But she hasn't always practiced what she teaches.In her book,she describes that awful day,almost 40years ago,when she received two pieces of life-changing news.First,she had lost the baby she was carrying,and second,tests showed that she had diabetes.In a childlike act,she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈).Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up─again-and take control of her diabetes,not let it control her.Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit,overcome her addiction to alcohol,and begin to follow a balanced diet.
Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor,she refuses to fall into self-pity."Everybody on earth can ask,‘why me?'about something or other,"she insists."It doesn't do any good.No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache,pain,and disappointments.Sometimes we can make things better by helping others.I've come to realize the importance of that as I've grown up this second time.I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be."
81.According to the passage,why did Mary Moore feel regretful?
(no more than 8words) (2marks)Because she ignored her mom
82.What is Mary's second book Growing Up Again mainly about?
(no more than 7words) (2marks)It's mainly about her living with diabetes
83.What did she decide to do when she realized she had to grow up again?
(no more than 8words) (3marks)She decided to take control of her diabetes
84.What can we know according to the last paragraph?(no more than 10words)(3marks)Mary wanted to help others as much as possible.

8.From boy to man
Growing up on-screen for a decade as Harry Potter,22-year-old Daniel Radellif has had to deal with typecasting(角色定位) his whole career.However,in a new release called The woman in Black,the successful child actor finally escapes J.K.Rowling's hero by taking on the lead role in a classic ghost story.
The movie,which hit Chinese cinemas on Sept.20,tells the tale of a widowed lawyer named Arthur Kipps (Radcliffe) who is sent to a remote village in the north of England for a late client's affairs.There,he discovers the town's tragic past-children die after they see a mysterious woman dressed in black.To clear things up,he decides to stay alone in an old house,which is completely cut off from the mainland at high tide.
His fears grow when he sees a woman in black looking at him from the window and hears the sound of a pony and trap in difficulty,followed by the screams of a young child.Kipps decides he must find a way to break the cycle of horror after his son is threatened by the mysterious woman.
The story pulls out every old,dark house cliché(老套路) going:demonic(恶魔的) dolls,rocking chairs,and the ghostly black-cloaked woman herself.However,it has become one of this year's biggest box office winners in the UK when it was released there in February.
British movie critic Jamie Russell thinks what makes it so different,is how character-driven it is and how Radcliffe makes it count.
"The woman in Black works because of Radcliffe,not in spite of him,"he said."Radcliffe's face convinces you that Kipps knows what it is to have loved and lost forever."
There is not much conversation.Director James Watkins's gambled on Radcliffe's acting.He was not disappointed."It's an absolute joy doing the slow push in on Dan,reading his thoughts and letting the camera drift closer and closer into his eyes."He told British magazine Total Film.
For the former Potter star who has longed for a career away from Hogwarts,this ghost movie is a step in the right direction.
"It's mainly about working hard and proving to people you're serious about it,and stretching (倾注全力) yourself and learning."Radcliffe told British online newspaper The Huffington Post.
And he understands fame is fleeting."The line that has made the most lasting impression on me was by[US writer]William Goldman.He said something like,'Stars come and go,only actors last'."he told the news website.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)

78.The movie The woman in Black is abouthow Arthur Kipps deals with a mysterious woman in black.
79.Why does Kipps have to find a way to break the cycle of horror?Because his son is threatened by the mysterious woman
80.How The woman in Black is successful is that it has beenone of the year's biggest box office hits.
81.What does The woman in Blackmean mean for Radclliffe,the former Harry Potter starIt's a breakthrough for him./?

15.A new study suggests that the more teenagers watch television,the more likely they are to develop depression(情绪低落) as young adults.
The researchers used a national long-term survey of adolescent(青少年的)health to survey the relationship between media use and depression.They based their findings on more than 4,000adolescents who were not depressed when the survey began in the year 2000.
As part of the survey,the young people were asked how many hours of television or videos they watched daily.They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio.Media use totaled an average of five and one-half hours a day.More than two hours of that was spent watching TV.
Seven years later,in 2007,more than seven percent of the young people had signs of depression.The average age at that time was twenty-one.
The researchers say they did not find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies,video games or radio,etc.But the study did find that every extra hour of television meant an eight percent increase in the chances of developing signs of depression.Young men were more likely than young women to develop depression given the same amount of media use.
The study didn't explore if watching TV causes depression.But one possibility is that it was taking time away from activities that could help prevent depression.
Last December,the journal Social Indicators Research published a study of activities that help lead to happy lives.Sociologists from the University of Maryland found that people who describe themselves as happy spend less time watching television than unhappy people.The study found that happy people are more likely to be socially active,to read,to attend religious services and to vote.

43.We can learn from the survey that of all the media useC.
A.computer games are teenagers'favourite
B.most teenagers prefer to listen to the radio
C.teenagers enjoy watching TV very much
D.newspaper is not included in the survey
44.According to the passage,what kind of activity may help prevent depression?B
A.Playing computer games.B.Taking part in sports.
C.Listening to the radio.D.Watching movies.
45.We can conclude that a teenager shouldB.
A.play more video games instead of watching TV
B.be active in taking part in outdoor activities
C.be more active in reading and studying
D.attend religious services and care for politics.

But this ancient truth tells us more than that-it is a valuable message of(9)hope   to all who experience tragedy in life.A broken relationship with one can(10)open up  the door to a new friendship with another.A(11)lost  job here can provide the opportunity for a better job there.A(12)broken  dream can become the foundation of a wonderful future.(13)rememberthis:Darkness may last for a night,but it will never overcome the  (14)lightof the morning.When you are in a(15)season of sorrow,don't be depressed,because a season of joy may be just around the corner.

13.When I enrolled at Pepperdine University in 1974,my mother exercised her parental right to express her worry at my departure.I responded with typical teenage indifference and ignorance."Mom,I'm only an hour away.What's the bit deal?""You just wait until you have one of your own,"she cried."Then you'll know what I'm feeling."It has been a little more than a month since my daughter Devin moved into her dorm at Occidental college,and life as I know it has come to an end.Or that's what it feels like.Mom,you were right.
The nest's empty loneliness is almost unbearable.Why does it hurt so bad?Science has an answer:We are social mammals who experience deep attachment to our fellow friends and family,an evolutionary throwback to our Paleolithic(旧石器时代的)hunter-gatherer days of living in small bands.Bonding unified the group,aiding survival in harsh climates and against unforgiving enemies.Attachment between parents and offspring assured that there is no one better equipped to look after the future survival of your genes than yourself.
The empty-nest syndrome is real,but there is good news for this and all forms of loss and grief.According to Harvard psychologist Daniel Gilbert,we are not very good at forecasting our unhappiness.Most of us think that we would be miserable for a very long time.Gilbert calls this the durability bias,an emotional misunderstanding.
The durability bias and the failure to recognize the power of our emotional immune systems lead us to overestimate how depressed we will feel and for how long,and to underestimate how quickly we will get rid of it and feel better.
For me,taking the long view helps.How long?Deep time.Evolutionary time,in which 6,895 days represent a mere 0.000000005% of the 3.5 billion year history of life on Earth.
Each of us parents makes one small contribution to the evolutionary importance of life's continuity from one generation to the next without a single gap,an unbroken link over the eons(永久).
57.What message does the author want to express by telling us her experience in the first paragraph?C
A.The empty-nest syndrome is really hard for old parents to bear.
B.All people should learn to love their parents no matter how old they are.
C.A person will not understand his parents?love until he has his own child.
D.The love parents give to children is selfless and should be respected.
58.According to Daniel Gilbert,the empty-nest syndrome isA.
A.caused by our emotional misunderstanding
B.not a real problem but in our imagination
C.the result of overestimating our happiness
D.from our emotional immune systems
59.The author gets herself out of the empty-nest syndrome by holding a positive idea thatD.
A.she can go to see her daughter regularly when she misses her
B.her daughter will one day come back to her after graduation
C.her daughter will understand her when she has her own children
D.the departure from her daughter is much shorter than the history of life on Earth
60.What kind of role do parents play in the human history,according to the last paragraph?B
A.They cultivate talents for the development of history.
B.They help keep the life's continuity without a broken link.
C.They accelerate the evolutionary pace of the human beings.
D.They point a right way for the next generation to develop themselves.
