Eccentrics are people who have an unusual or odd personality, set of beliefs, or behavior pattern. They may or may not comprehend the standards for normal behavior in their culture. They simply don’t care about the society’s disapproval of their habits or beliefs.
Once considered socially unacceptable, eccentric people have been found to possess some positive characteristics. 1. They often have more curiosity about the world and, in many cases, are contentedly obsessed by hobbies and interests. 2. They live in a world of their own and do not worry about what others think of them. So they are usually less restricted and therefore more carefree in forming new ideas.
3. Statistics show they visit their doctors less—about once in eight to nine years, which is 20 times less than the average person. This could be partly due to their innate traits such as humor and happiness. 4. This may explain why eccentrics are, on the whole, healthier.
Psychologists therefore suggest that we pay attention to those who do not conform. It could be our aunt who has been raising pet lizards. 5. Their crazy hobby or strange sense of humor is what keeps them going. Eccentric people may seem odd, but they will likely live a happier and healthier life because they enjoy what they are doing. In fact, many of history’s most brilliant minds have displayed some unusual behaviors and habits.
A．Eccentrics are also found to be healthier.
B．According to a recent study in England, eccentrics are more creative.
C．Or it could be our best friend’s brother who wears shorts to a formal dance.
D．People may have eccentric taste in clothes, or have eccentric hobbies.
E．Psychologists also find that eccentric people do not follow conventions.
F．Such personal traits are found to play an important role in boosting the body’s immune system.
G．Psychologist Dr David Weeks mentions people with a mental illness “suffer” from their behavior while eccentrics are quite happy.

My 11-year-old son and I rides bikes to and from his school every day. I accompany him on the 20-minute ride through Manhattan, drop him off and return at the end of day to pick him up. We always ride together; sometimes he leads; sometimes I do. And as we ride, we communicate the ways to minimize (使减少或缩小到最低限度) the dangers: Don’t go too fast, and watch out for doors suddenly swinging out from parked cars and jaywalking pedestrians, etc. Some friends worry about the risk of riding in traffic, but is there a better way to let my son know how to deal with traffic dangers?
But recently he requested me to start hanging back a half block or so. This way he could enjoy the feeling of riding on his own, with the security of knowing that I was nearby in case he needed me. This is healthy, of course, as my son needs space to develop independence in preparation for his inevitable (不可避免的，必然发生的) departure from home. However, that means soon he will want to ride to school on his own, and I will no longer have this wonderful routine. “Let your children go if you want to keep them.” I understand this and am trying to let my son go in age-appropriate phases, but I still suffer. It’s one of the most troubling experiences of parenthood — recognizing that your presence is becoming less welcome.
My dilemma as a husband mirrors the concern I feel as a parent. My wife has just left on a six-month mission to cover the situation in Libya. In the days leading up to her departure, we spoke openly about the possibility, however unlikely, that she might be killed. But while I influence her decisions, I do not control them. Finally, it was her decision. I know that letting go is the wisest path in this case too.
As we travel through life’s phases, we must let go of so much. And I don’t think it gets easier with practice. But maybe just accepting that eventually we will have to let go is the secret to living a full life.
1.Why does the writer accompany his son on his daily ride to school?
A.To build up his strength.
B.To teach his son to ride in traffic.
C.To tell his son the way to school.
D.To communicate more with his son.
2.Although he thinks his son’s request understandable, the writer ________.
A.is worried about his son’s safety
B.is angry for his son’s leaving alone
C.feels upset for being rejected by his son
D.feels sorry for not giving his son enough space
3.What does the writer’s wife do?
A.She is a soldier. B.She is a politician.
C.She is a media person. D.She is a businesswoman.
4.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Letting go. B.Father’s love.
C.Living a full life. D.Lessons from riding.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
It is impossible to know when you might find yourself lost in a forest. If you know what to do, you can survive in a forest without much trouble; but if you are not prepared, survival can be much less likely.
Keep fear at bay
It is completely natural to be afraid when you are faced with a survival situation. 1. The more your fear overcomes you, the lower your chances are of survival, as your mind is going to become clouded and panic may set in.
Stay warm
Obviously, the low body temperature is one of the primary dangers you face when you must survive in the forest2. Never stop to sleep or quit moving around unless you have appropriate shelter.
Know how to make a fire
Obviously , if you have a lighter or matches, this is not a problem. But if not, you can attempt to use a dry narrow pointed stick and a dry flat piece of wood. 3. This requires a great deal of work, but if done correctly, you will succeed.
Make some shelter
4. The easiest way to provide protection is to find a fallen tree and cover it with other branches and brush so that you can stay in the natural pit underneath the tree trunk.This is a very important aspect of being able to survive in the forest.
Stay put unless you know exactly where you are
If you can build a stable shelter and start a fire, you can survive in the forest for several days. 5. If you know where you are, travel as far as possible during the day while making sure you stop long enough before dark so that you can build another shelter.
A. Soon you will find that it’s not that difficult to survive in the forest.
B. However, if you are going to survive in the forest, you must keep your thoughts clear.
C. Make as much friction(摩擦) as possible by rubbing the pointed stick along the flat piece.
D. It is better to stay and wait for rescue.
E. Under no circumstances should we fight with the wild animals.
F. Caves and overhangs are perfect, but most likely you must build your own.
G. It is crucial that you do all you can to stay dry and keep your body temperature up.

Neumann was the oldest of 3 children of a banker, and his speed of learning new ideas and of solving problems stood out early. At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he may lead a poor life being a mathematician, and so Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph. D. in mathematics. From then on, mathematic provided well enough for him, and he never had to turn to chemistry.
In 1930, Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Institute for Advanced Study was formed, and he became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others).
World War II hugely changed Neumann’s areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure (纯粹的) mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematics theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several contributions. After the war, Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died in 1957 of cancer.
Neumann really was a legend(传奇) in his own time, and there are a number of stories about him. His driving ability is a part of this legend. He reported one accident this way: “I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path.”
1.According to the text, Neumann’s father believed that __________.
A. a mathematician needed a good memory
B. a mathematician couldn’t earn a lot of money
C. Neumann has a gift for solving problems at a high speed
D. Neumann had the ability to learn two subjects at the same time
2.How did World War II affect Neumann?
A. He lost interest in chemistry.
B. He realized the importance of engineering.
C. He began to research how to put mathematics into practice.
D. He left college and served at the government department.
3.Which of the following is true of Neumann?
A. He had three children.
B. He died from an accident.
C. He received many awards in his life.
D. He and Einstein were classmates in Princeton University.

阅读理解。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
While you are online there are plenty of perfectly legal sites where you can listen to music for free. This gives you the chance to listen to music before buying it, discover new music, and create great online playlists that you can share with others.
The Sixty One
The Sixty One is devoted to showcasing obscure or unknown artists of all genres. There’s a range of musical styles from classical to rock and roll, folk to jazz, and everything in between. Don’t expect to find big name musicians on here; you’re more likely to find the musicians playing at local coffee shops than bands you hear on the radio..
Pow Wow
Pow Wows are the Native American people’s way of meeting together, to join in dancing, singing, visiting, renewing old friendships, and making new ones. This is a time method to renew Native American culture and preserve the rich heritage of American Indians. PowWows.com has 2 online radio stations that play Native American Music 24/7 free! Here you can listen to your favorite artists and drum groups on your computer or mobile device and add your music to our station.
Playlist
Playlist has an enormous library, so you can create playlists with almost any musician you can think of. They have both some lesser known artists and big names, so you have a really good selection. The worst part: Due to licensing laws, many of the songs on Playlist are now restricted to certain countries. So unless you live inside the US, it is likely that you might not be able to find all of your favorite songs.
Pandora
Pandora is an intelligent Internet radio site. Basically, as you listen, you can give each song a thumbs up or thumbs down. You can create your own radio station that only plays music you like. The best part: It listens to your opinion, so that after a while it’s only playing music you like, but the list is always changing and expanding.
My Space
Combine a major social networking site with thousands of artists around the world. Each musician has their own page, which normally has a playlist of several of their songs. But it has a huge range of musicians ranging from huge stars to the up-and-coming, and you can listen to the music and interact with the rest of the page.
