Forgiving(原谅) someone who has hurt you or let you down is never an easy thing. Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably don’t think of it as being a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger(愤怒) can change your well-being.
When cartoon book characters like the Incredible Hulk get angry, they change colors and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. That’s why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Good, say holding on to anger and hatred(仇恨) can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea. The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less unhappiness. They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure and fewer problems on sleeping.
So it doesn’t matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Skills such as deep breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if it’s worth hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else.
Forgiveness doesn’t mean that you simply accept what happened and say it’s OK. Instead, it’s a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past.
1.The author of the passage tries to make his opinion clear ___________.
A. by showing his own examples B. based on his own experience.
C. by using some studies. D. by introducing some patients.
2.The example of the cartoon book characters in the passage is taken to ________.
A. support the opinion that anger and hatred harm your physical and mental health
B. introduce a famous expert
C. let the readers know the different colors of cartoon faces
D. show how to control one’s temper
3.The underlined phrase “ holding on to” in the passage possibly means_______.
A. taking away B. keeping up
C. getting rid of D. learning about

Saturday， 22 April , 2017
We are currently on a camp-site near Calais, on our way to the UK, and it is pouring with rain. As if gods want to prepare us for the UK at all costs. As if we don't know what rain is... Our ferry to the green isles will leave tomorrow at 10.30 and despite the rain, I am really looking forward to it.
It has taken us a while to get here, as we already left El Chorro on 4 April. After rushing through Spain in two days, however, we came to an inevitable slow-down when we entered France. Inevitable, as France has simply too much to offer for us. So as soon as we crossed the Pyrenees, our driving sequence became something like driving a few kilometres, visiting a castle, driving a few kilometres, taking pictures of a nice church, driving a few kilometres, having a quick peek at a fleas market, driving a few kilometres, visiting a museum etc. When we entered Brittany the real sightseeing started, in Vannes, in Lorient, in Brest and then on to Normandy: Le Mont St Michel, Bayeux and finally, finally the D-Day beaches. I always wanted to visit these, for obvious reasons I would say, but my father, realistic as he was, calculated the chances that it would rain a considerable amount of days of a three-week holiday and always decided against it. But a few days ago I finally stepped onto Gold Beach (where the Brits landed) and I was greeted by the Norman sun. A beautiful day.
1.It was _____ when the writer was on his way to the UK.
A. pouring B. foggy
C. snowy D. sunny
2.According to the passage, the Pyrenees must be a place in_____.
A. Spain B. France
C. Netherland D. Normandy
3.Which of the following statement is NOT true?
A. They spent 2 days in Spain traveling.
B. The writer thought France has a lot of places to visit.
C. The writer thought the real sightseeing was in E1 Chorro, and in Brest.
D. The writer’s father was a realistic person.
4.The passage probably comes from _______.
A. a travel journal B. a science fiction
C. a news report D. a film review

Martha Graham, born in 1894, was one of the most famous dancers and creators of dance, whose influence on dance has been compared with the influence Picasso had on the modern visual arts, Stravinsky had on music, or Frank Lloyd Wright had on architecture. She created almost two hundred dance pieces. She is often called the Mother of Modern Dance.
Earlier in her life, however, Martha did not know that she would become a dancer. At that time, the dancers were looked down on. So Martha's parents didn't approve of her desire to dance at the beginning. Until 1916, she began her studies at the newly created Denishawn School of Dancing and Related Arts, founded by Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn, where Graham worked very hard to improve her ability to dance because she was considered too old to begin dancing.
In 1936, Graham made her defining work, "Chronicle”, which signaled the beginning of a new era in modern dance. The dance brought serious issues to the stage for the general public in a dramatic manner. Influenced by the Wall Street Crash of 1929, the Great Depression that followed, and the Spanish Civil War, it focused on depression and isolation, reflected in the dark nature of both the set and costumes.（服装）
Graham continued to dance past the age of seventy. Once again, she was met with criticism from people who came to watch her shows. But she didn't give up. Her last completed ballet was 1990's Maple Leaf Rag. "A Dancer's World" is an introduction to Graham and her work. She tells about her dances and her dance group shows some of their methods.
Martha Graham received many awards during her lifetime, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom in nineteen seventy-six. She was the first dancer to receive the country's highest civilian honor. She died in 1991 at the age of ninety-six. In 1998, Time magazine listed her as the "Dancer of the Century" and as one of the most important people of the twentieth century.
1.Some famous artists mentioned in Paragraph 1 show Martha Graham________ .
A. was influenced greatly by them
B. kept in touch with them regularly
C. had a great effect on modern dance
D. liked to make more friends with them
2.Why didn't Martha's parents approve of her desire to dance at first?
A. She was too old to learn American dance.
B. American dance was seen as a lower art form.
C. There was no academic school to teach dancing.
D. Her family was too poor to afford her tuition.
3.When Martha Graham continued to dance in her 70s, she_________.
A. was warmly welcomed by the youth
B. achieved huge success once again[
C. received many awards for her age
D. was attacked by people

Finding time to red is an important part of developing literacy skills for all kids. And there are many easy and convenient ways to make reading a part of each day-even when it’s tough to find time to sit down with a book.
Reading opportunities are everywhere you go. While riding in the car, for example, encourage kids to spot words and letters (on billboards, store signs, etc.), turning it into a game (“Who’ll be the first to find a letter B?”). While shopping, ask your preschooler to “read” pictures on boxes and tell you about them. Point out the difference between the words and the pictures on the boxes. Encourage older kids to tell you what’s on the shopping list.
Even daily tasks like cooking can provide reading moments. You can read recipes aloud to younger kids, and older kids can assist you as your cook by telling you how much flour to measure. Give your child a catalog to read while you sort through the mail. Ask relatives to send your child letters, e-mails, or text messages, and read them together. Help your child create letters or messages to send back to the relatives. These types of activities help kids see the purpose of reading and of print.
Even when you’re trying to get things done, you can encourage reading. While cleaning, for instance, you might ask your child to read a favorite book to you while you work. Younger kids can talk to you about the pictures in the favorite books.
Make sure kids get some time to spend quietly with books, even if it means cutting back on other activities, like watching TV or playing video games.
Most importantly, be a reader yourself. Kids who see their parents reading are likely to resemble them and become readers, too!
1.What is the best title for the text?
A. The Importance of Reading
B. Finding the Reading Moments
C. Improving the Kid’s Reading Skills
D. Sitting down with a Book
2.According to the passage, encouraging the children to write letters is to ______.
A. show the function of reading
B. examine their writing skills
C. improve the kids’ reading ability
D. keep in touch with the relatives
3.To encourage older children to read, you can ask them to______.
A. make the shopping list
B. measure the flour for you
C. describe the pictures on boxes
D. read a favorite book to you
4.What does the underlined word “resemble” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Enjoy. B. Read.
C. Imitate. D. Like.

Three years ago, I became a student in an ordinary school. Disappointing as I felt at the shabby campus and the poorly-equipped classroom, I find the teachers patient and considerate. Besides, I enjoyed the friend atmosphere in class. I decided to make the best for it. I worked hardly and got along well with teachers and classmates. Whenever I had difficulties, they were always available. Soon, I became one of the top student in my class, what greatly increased my confidence and I got more motivated.
My experiencee tells me that it is not what you are given but that how you use it that determine who you are.
