    Yesterday I totally changed my views about life after a talk with one of my friends. He told me despite being  36  , he was happy and   37   that it was because of something he saw in India．
    A few years ago he was  38  feeling sad and was touring India．He said right in front of his very eyes, he saw an Indian mother 39 her child’s right hand with a knife．The helpless  40  in the mother’s eyes and the painful scream of the 41 four-year-old child still remained in his mind．
    The 42 mother made the child handicapped （disabled）  43  he could go out on the streets to beg．  44  by the scene, he dropped a small piece of bread he was eating．And almost at once, several children  45  around this small piece of bread covered with sand,   46 bits from one another．It was the 47  reaction of hunger．He then went to the nearest bakery and bought every single loaf of bread．  48   he gave out the bread to the children （mostly handicapped）, he  49   cheers and bows from these  50   children．For the first time in his life, he understood  51  people could give up their  52  for a loaf of bread．He came to   53   how fortunate he was to be able to have a sound body, have a job, have a family, have the chance to  54   about food that didn’t taste good, and have the many things that these people in front of him   55   dreamed of having．Perhaps life wasn’t bad at all．

    During a state of deep relaxation, several physiological changes take place in the body: the body’s oxygen consumption is reduced; the heart beat decreases; muscle tension and sweating ease, and there is decreased sympathetic （交感的） nervous system activity．This restful state not only allows the body to repair and restore itself, but it has a calming effect on the consciousness．
    How to achieve this state of relaxation, however, is a matter of opinion, and in some medical circles, a matter of controversy．A recent report by Dr．David Holmes of the University of Kansas in the journal “American psychologist” said that simply sitting in an armchair has just as many beneficial characteristics for the body as meditation （冥想） does．Researchers of other relaxation techniques disagree．These experts believe that more structured techniques, such as meditation, lead to a condition of deep relaxation．
    The debate goes on, but one thing appears to be clear: the relaxation response can be reached by a number of methods, and the methods themselves are not as important as getting there．One day, one method may work best; on another day, an alternative method may be more appropriate．Once you are aware of all the methods, you can find the one that works best on you．
    Some of the relaxation techniques are meditation, auto analysis and progressive muscle relaxation response．More than just sitting quietly in a chair, they have the added benefit of structure and discipline, and for these reasons appear to be more effective for most individuals．
    小题1:According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true when a person is in a state of deep relaxation?
    A．The body takes in less oxygen．
    B．The heart beats less frequently．
    C．Muscles become tense and the body sweats easily．
    D．The consciousness becomes more or less calmed．
    小题2:People seem to agree that ____．
    A．sitting in an armchair benefits a person as meditation does
    B．structured relaxation techniques are more beneficial for a person
    C．to achieve a state of deep relaxation is possible through various means
    D．what people are all struggling for is a state of deep relaxation
    小题3:In the third paragraph, the phrase “getting there” means _____．
    A．arriving at one’s destination
    B．getting what one wants most
    C．finding out a suitable relaxation technique
    D．reaching a state of deep relaxation
    小题4:The author’s attitude toward relaxation discussed in the passage is best described as ______．
    A．scepticalB．objectiveC．optimistic D．critical

    What exactly is a lie ?Is it anything we say which we know is untrue ?Or is it something more than that ?For example, suppose a friend wants to borrow some money from you. You say “I wish I could help you, but I am short of money myself.” In fact , you are not short of money but your friend is in the habit of not paying his debts and you don’t want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this. Is this really a lie ?
    Professor Jerald Jellison of the University of southern California has made a scientific study of lying. According to him, women are better liars than men, particularly when telling a “white lie”, such as when a woman at a party tells another woman that she likes her dress when she really thinks it’s terrible. However, this is only one side of the story. Other researchers say that men are more likely to tell more serious lies, such as making a promise that they have no intention of carrying out. This is the kind of lie politicians and businessmen are supposed to be particularly skilled at :the lie from which the liar hopes to profit or gain in some way.
    Research has been done into the way people’s behavior changes in a number of small, unimportant ways when they lie. It has been found that if they are sitting down at the time, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual. To the trained observer they are saying “I wish I were somewhere else now”. They also tend to touch certain parts of the face, particularly the nose. One explanation of this may be that lying causes a slight increase in blood pressure. The tip of the nose  is very sensitive to changes and the increased pressure makes it itch.
    Another gesture that gives liars away is what the writer Decmond Morris in his book Man Watching calls the “mouth cover”. He says that there are several typical forms of this ,such as covering part of the mouth with the fingers, touching the upper lip or putting a finger of the hand at one side off the mouth. Such a gesture can be understood as an unconscious(未察觉的) attempt on the part of the liar to stop himself from lying.
    Of course, such gestures as rubbing the nose or covering the mouth , moving about in a chair can not be taken as proof that the speaker is lying. They simply tend to happen more often in this situation. It is one gesture alone that gives the liar away but a whole number of things , and in particular the context(上下文) which the lie is told.
    小题1:According to the passage, a white lie seems to be a lie ______.
    A．that other people believe
    B．that other people don’t believe
    C．told in order not to hurt someone’s feelings
    D．told in order to take advantage of someone
    小题2:Research suggests that women _____.
    A．are better at telling less serious lies than men
    B．generally lie for more than men do
    C．often make promises they intend to break
    D．lie at parties more often than men do
    小题3:Researchers find that when a person tells lies _____.
    A．his blood pressure increases measurably
    B．he looks very serious
    C．he is likely to make some small changes in his behavior
    D．he uses his unconscious mind
    小题4:The writer of the passage______.
    A．hates lyingB．enjoys lyingC．often tells a lieD．tries to study about lying
    小题5:Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage as a sign of lying ?
    A．Touching one’s earsB．Rubbing the nose
    C．Moving in a chairD．Covering the mouth

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
    D
    The first MP4 player was born years ago. Soon many music fans were wondering how fantastic it is! If you have been into technology enough, perhaps you may have a knowledge of the MP4. If not, you do need to know something before buying one, even if you are familiar with MP3. MP3 is the CD-like disc with greater capacity. How about MP4? This small digital product will really enrich the joy from listening to music. You can even feel the “touch” of music to your soul!
    Now, some similar digital products advertised as “MP4 player” are simply MP3 players, which do not play video and MPEG format and also lack other particular functions. These products confuse some buyers, as they may think the “MP4” players simply mean they can do more than MP3.
    What is MP4?
    It is a multimedia container. It is not only used to store digital audio and digital video streams, especially those of MPEG, but can also be used to store other data such as subtitles and pictures. As a most modern container format, it allows streaming over the Internet.
    With the help of a piece of MP4 video equipment, you can change various programs such as MPEG to MP4, ASX to MP4, AVI to MP4 and so on, which can be done very quickly and easily without any effect on the sound quality. By installing DVD-MP4 software, you can transfer particular music from a DVD to an MP4 video file. It really excites your listening music experience.
    Then, there is MP4 advanced and you can set your own collection of all the programs—TV shows, games, and music. You can even see movies which are still running in cinema. What else digital product could you possibly ask for?
    小题1: It is suggested here that you should ______ before buying an MP4 player.
    A．first be a music fanB．have a knowledge of MP4
    C．get familiar with MP3D．buy a CD-like disc
    小题2:From the passage, we can see that MP4 is ______ MP3.
    A．much bigger thanB．just as advanced as
    C．not so particular asD．more functional than
    小题3:Which function of MP4 is NOT directly mentioned in this passage?
    Ａ．Storing digital audio and video streams.
    Ｂ．Recording some movies in cinema.
    Ｃ．Playing TV shows, games and movies.
    Ｄ．Transferring particular music from a DVD.
    小题4:From the last sentence, it’s clear that the writer tries to tell us it is ______.
    A．reasonable to buy other digital products
    B．impossible to buy something else
    C．a very wise choice to buy an MP4
    D．an exciting experience to buy an MP3

    "OK, Dad," said his son. But he was afraid his son couldn't remember this, he wrote these words down on a piece of paper and gave it to him. His son put it into his small pocket, took it out and looked at it now and then.
    Four days passed, but no one came to see his father. The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening.
    The next afternoon, someone knocked at the door. The boy opened it. A man was standing at the door and said, "Where is your father?" The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper. He could not find it. He suddenly remembered he had burnt it, so he shouted, "No more."
    The man was very surprised. He asked, "No more? I met your father last week. When did it happen?"
    "Burnt yesterday evening."
