W: How did you find our place? From the Internet or the newspaper?
M: Oh, I saw a for-rent sign on your window. I am looking for a two-bedroom apartment.
W: You are in luck. We do have an apartment available for rent on the fifth floor, and I think it may be exactly what you’re looking for. It has two bedrooms, and the rent is quite reasonable. In fact, I don’t think you will be able to find a place like this or a price this low anywhere near here.
M: Really? Do you think I can take a look at it right now? I am really in a hurry to find a place.
W: Of course. Just give me a second, and I will get the key.

How Your Personality Type Affects Your Health
Personalities play an important role in determining one’s behavior and habits, so it’s little wonder that your personality type has much to do with your health. Now research has found that personality traits (特点)can be important health predictors. One study even found that the personality traits exhibited during childhood are linked to self-rated health during middle age.
So how is your health influenced by your personality? Let's take two common personality types for example. One is the classic type A personality. People with this personality type tend to be more competitive, impatient, tense, and even aggressive. According to research, this personality type is associated with many negative health outcomes like high blood pressure, heart disease, increased job stress, and social isolation (孤立). So, if you tend to have some of the more negative features of a type A personality, such as a tendency to be stressed out, explore things you can to lower your chances of developing health problems. For instance, you can practice stress management skills, which can help you to better handle life's daily problems.
The other one is the “eager to please” personality type. People with this personality type tend to be accommodating, passive, and conforming (从众). Their passive nature also means they're more likely to feel hopeless or helpless in the face of a negative health event. They may also be less likely to seek help when something is wrong. When faced with a diagnosis (诊断),they may simply assume that nothing they do will make much of a difference. So, what can you do to protect your health if you tend to be a people-pleaser? Don't always place your own well-being last. Being considerate of others can be a positive trait, but be sure to take time for your own health as well. Besides, don't fall into thinking that your health is out of your hands. Instead of focusing on the external influences that affect your health, pay attention to the things that you can change through your own actions.
Why does personality have an impact on health? Why are certain traits so tied to certain diseases? The answers aren't clear, but one potential explanation is that personality impacts the ways people choose to behave and live. People who are more responsible may be more likely to make healthier choices while those who are neurotic (神经质的)may be less likely to seek medical help.
Understanding your personality might be a great way to help determine what sort of health choices or changes you need to focus on making. By being aware of the potential clangers you may face, you can turn to your health care professional and come up with a plan to minimize the clangers.

【题目】 Americans recognize that there is a past on which the present rests. But they have not developed their sense of the depth of time as much as this has been done in the Middle East and South Asia. The Arab looks back two to six thousand years for his own origins. History is used as the basis for almost any modern action. The chances are that an Arab won’t start a talk or a speech or analyze a problem without first developing the historical aspects of his subject. The American assumes that time has depths but seldom stresses the importance of it.
The American never questions the fact that time should be planned and future events should be fitted into a schedule. He thinks that people should look forward to the future and not talk too much on the past. His future is not very far ahead of him. Results must be obtained in the foreseeable future—one or two years or, at the most, five or ten. Promises to meet deadlines and appointments are taken very seriously. There is real punishment for being late and for not keeping commitments in time. The American thinks it is natural to calculate the value of time. To fail to do so is unthinkable. The American calculates how much time is required to do everything. “I’ll be there in ten minutes.” “It will take six months to finish that job.” “I was in the Army for four and a half years.”
The Americans, like so many other people, also use time as a link that chains events together. If one event occurs on the heels (紧接着) of another, they will certainly try to find a causal relationship between them. If A is seen around the area of B’s murder shortly after the crime has been committed, they automatically form a connection between A and B. However, events which are separated by too much time are difficult for them to connect in their minds. This makes it almost impossible for them as a nation to engage (从事) in long-range planning.
【1】How do Americans see past time according to the first paragraph?
A.It’s worthless.B.It’s limited.
C.It reflects today.D.It helps start a talk.
【2】What does the underlined phrase “to do so” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.To calculate the value of the past.
B.To figure out the importance of time.
C.To plan a schedule for future events.
D.To meet deadlines and appointments.
【3】When will Americans chain two events together?
A.When common evidence is found.
B.When A is found near the scene of B’s crime.
C.When the two events happen one by one.
D.When one event happens long after another.
【4】What does the author mainly want to tell Americans to do?
A.See time further.B.Be punctual.
C.Study the past time.D.Make a long-range plan.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。
(2011年湖北)In today's throwaway society,dealing with the city's growing mountain of waste is an increasing challenge for the city council(市议会).
Recently,Edinburgh is faced with the problem of disposing of(处理) about 250,000 million tons of waste a year. Despite different ways to dispose of much of it in a green manner-largely through encouraging recycling-its aging facilities such as the Powderhall landfill do not have the ability to deal with it.
The European Union (EU) has issued a new policy,regulating how such mountains of waste are to be disposed of. The five councils (Edinburgh,East Lothian,West Lothian,Midlothian and Borders) face fines around £18 million a year from 2013 if they don't increase recycling levels and rely less on landfill. With this in mind,the councils got together with the idea of building a large incinerator plant(垃圾焚烧厂) to burn half of the waste produced in their districts. But this plan fell apart after the change of target levels by a new UK government waste policy which required that no more than 25% of the city's waste should be disposed of in this way by 2025.
After the plan was abandoned,a private company which already transported millions of tons of the city's waste by train to a landfill site near Dunbar,offered an alternative solution when it suggested opening a huge waste site near Portobello.
Since Powderhall is supposed to close in 2015,it seemed necessary for the members of the Edinburgh Council to accept the suggestion. But soon they turned/span> it down-after 700 local objections reached them-because it would have meant hundreds of lorries a day making loud noise through heavily populated areas.
That still leaves the council with a problem. By 2013,only 50% of 1995 levels of waste will be allowed to be sent to landfill. Even if recycling targets are met,there will still be a large amount of rubbish to be burnt up. Due to this,Edinburgh and Midlothian councils have now decided to work together to build an incinerator plant as time to find a solution is fast running out.
【1】The main way of handling waste in a green manner in Edinburgh is ________.
A.recycling
B.restoring
C.burying
D.burning
【2】The five councils worked out a plan to build an incinerator plant to ________.
A.reduce the cost of burying waste
B.meet the EU requirements
C.speed up waste recycling
D.replace landfill sites
【3】The city council of Edinburgh rejected the suggestion to open a huge landfill site near Portobello because ________.
A.it came from a private company
B.the council was not interested in it
C.it was not supported by EU
D.the local people were against it
【4】What is the final decision of Edinburgh and Midlothian councils?
A.To open a new landfill nearby.
B.To close the Powderhall landfill in 2015.
C.To set up a plant for burning waste.
D.To persuade people to reduce their waste.
