Have you ever suddenly felt that someone you knew was in trouble?Have you ever dreamed something that  36  later?Maybe you have ESP.
ESP stands   37  Extra Sensory Perception. It may be called   38  sixth sense. It seems to let people  39   about events before they happen, or events  40   are happening some  41  away.
There are thousands of stories on  42  . Scientists are studying  43  to find out what’s behind these  44   mental messages. Here’s an example, one of hundreds of  45   that have come true.
A man dreamed he was walking along a road  46  a horse and carriage came by. The driver said, “There’s room for one more.” The man felt the driver was Death,   47  he ran away. The next day, the  48   was getting on a crowded bus. The bus driver said, “There’s room for one more”. Then the man saw that the driver’s face was the same face he  49  in the dream. He would not  50  the bus. As the bus drove off, it  51  crashed and burst into flames. Everyone was  52 !
Some people say stories like this are lies or  53  . Others, including some scientists,  54  that ESP is real. From studies of ESP, we may someday learn more about  55  mind.

Be careful of those who use the truth to deceive (cheat). When someone tells you something that is true, but  36  important information that should be included, he can create a false  37  .
For Example, a man once told me, “I just won a hundred dollars on the  38  . It was great. I   39  that ticket back to the store and turned it in   40  one hundred dollars!”
This guy is a winner, right? May be, may be not. Then  41  I discovered that he bought two hundred tickets, and only one was a  42  . He was  43  a big loser!
He didn’t say anything that was false,  44  he left out important information  45  . That’s called a half—truth. Half—truths are not technically  46  , but they are just as dishonest.
Untrustworthy candidates in political campaigns often use this  47  . Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her  48  lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she sought another  49  . One of her opponents put an ad saying, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s  50  . However, an honest statement would have been quite different.
Advertisers will sometimes use half—truths. It’s  51  the law to make false claims, so they  52  to mislead you with the truth. An ad  53  blow its own horn, “Nine out of ten doctors lend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples.” It fails to mention that they only ask ten  54  , and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.
This kind of  55  deception happens too often. It’s a fact of life: lies are lies, but sometimes the truth can lie as well.
36. A. makes out           B. leaves out                 C. tries out            D. puts out
37. A. chance            B. expression            C. impression     D. translation
38. A. spot                    B. lab                           C. competition          D. lottery
39. A. took                   B. turned                  C. went                 D. looked
40. A. with                   B. as                               C. like                   D. for
41. A. later                   B. formerly                  C. hardly           D. generally
42. A. loser                   B. winner                        C. shame           D. surprise
43. A. wrongly                 B. usually                  C. really                D. right
44. A. since                  B. what’s more                 C. therefore           D. but

D
Sometimes you may have a strong desire to do something strange or terrible. However, chances are that you don’t act on your impulse (冲动), but let it pass instead. You know that to take the action is wrong in some way and that other people will not accept your behavior.
Perhaps the most interesting thing about the phenomenon of taboo behavior is how it can change over the years, how certain behavior and attitudes once considered taboo can become perfectly acceptable and natural at another point in time. Topics such as death, for example, were once considered so upsetting that it was a taboo to even talk about them. Now with the publication of important books such as On Death and Dying and Learning to Say Goodbye, people have become more aware of the importance of expressing feelings about death and, as a result, are more willing to talk about this taboo subject.
One of the newest taboos is the topic of fat. Unlike many other taboos, fat is a topic that people talk about constantly. It’s not taboo to talk about fat; it’s taboo to be fat. The “in” look is thin, not fat. In the work world, most companies prefer youthful-looking, slim manager to sell their image as well as their products to the public. The thin look is associated with youth, vigor, and success. The fat person, on the other hand, is thought of as lazy and lacking in energy, self-discipline and self-respect. After all, how can people permit themselves to become fat? In an image-conscious society, thin is “in”, fat is “out”.
It’s not surprising that millions of people have become obsessed (着迷) with staying slim and “in shape”. The pursuit of a youthful physical appearance is not, however, the only reason for people’s obsession with diet and exercise. Recent research has shown the importance of diet and exercise for personal health. As in most technologically developed nations, the life-style of people has changed since last century. Modern machines do all the physical labor. Cars and buses transport us quickly from point to point. As a result of inactivity and disuse, people’s bodies can easily become weak. In an effort to avoid such a fate (命运), millions of people are spending more of their time exercising. Parks are filled with joggers and bicyclists, and many companies are providing special exercise equipment for their employees to use during the work day.
67. What does the word “taboo” refer to in the passage?
A. A crime committed on impulse.
B. An unfavorable impression left on other people.
C. A strong desire to do something strange or terrible.
D. Behavior considered unacceptable to the society.
68. What does the underlined phrase “in”look probably mean?
A. The fashionable look.                       B. The hidden look.
C. The usual look.                                D. The inside look. 
69. According to the passage, the common belief is that ______.
A. fat people are full of energy
B. thin people are more successful
C. fat people prefer to have fat bosses
D. thin people are less image-conscious
70. People pay more attention to diet and exercise because of ______.
A. their need to kill time                       B. their love for sports
C. their concern for health                   D. their belief in hard work

My son was badly hurt in a fire. After he   36  from a series of treatments, the doctors told him they would not do any operation for six months   37  it took long for the skin to stop shrinking. So, he had to return to college with a visible 10-inch  38 on his face.

C
It is a lot of trouble to learn a new language. When we go to all that trouble, we certainly want to be understood. But understanding is based on more than speech. Sometimes misunderstanding comes not from the wrong words, but from the wrong style. In our own country, we learn the style for politeness. But this polite style may be misunderstood in another country. This can cause unexpected difficulties. Since you have spent so much effort learning this new language, it is sensible and practical to learn the politeness rules also. Even if you think some of the customs are foolish, learning them can help you to be clearly understood.
In your country, is it considered polite to listen quietly to other people without any change of expression on the face? If this is the style you have learned, perhaps you should watch two Americans talking. Notice how the person who is listening will have frequent changes of expression. The listener may also make little remarks while the other person is talking. These little remarks may be one word, like “Really?” or they may just be a little sound, like “Uhhuh” or “Mmm.” This is the way American listeners show that they are listening in a friendly way. This is why Americans get uneasy when the listener is silent and shows no change of expression. In the American style of speaking, an unmoving face often means that the listener is unfriendly, or perhaps even angry.
Sometimes people from two countries are uncomfortable with each other for very small reasons. Here is an example: Americans think that perspiration odor is not polite. In fact, they worry so much about this subject that they spend a great deal of money on deodorants (除臭剂) and dry cleaning and washing their clothes. If a foreign student does not follow the same rule, Americans may be disturbed and think the foreigner is not nice. The problem can be especially troublesome because Americans are so embarrassed about this subject that they do not even like to talk about it, so they are not likely to tell that person why they are uneasy.
63. If you want to be clearly understood in another country, besides the language, you should also learn _________.
A. its common knowledge     B. its style            C. its wrong words      D. how to make a speech
64. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. American listeners have frequent changes of expression.
B. A foreign student may not get along well with Americans if he smells.
C. An unmoving face and silence of listeners will make Americans feel unhappy.
D. Making little remarks like “Really”, “Uhhuh” or “Mum” is impolite while listening to an American.
65. The underlined phrase in the last paragraph probably means _________.
A. an unpleasant smell                                     B. a good style of talking
C. an unfriendly way                                   D. a polite expression
66. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Learning a new language                  B. Different people, Different languages
C. Body Language                                     D. Different Countries, Different Cultures

Several different stories are told about the origin of Saint Valentine’s Day. One story dates as far back as the days of Roman Empire. According to the story. Claudius, the Emperor of Rome, wanted to increase the size of the army. He knew that it would be easier to get young men who were not married to join the army; therefore, he made a rule that no young men could marry until he had served in the army for a number of years.
A priest(man working in church) named Valentine broke the rule and secretly married a great number of young people. Finally, Claudius found out about Valentine and put the priest in prison, where he remained until his death on February 14.
After his death, Valentine was made a saint(圣人) and the day of his death was named Saint Valentine’s Day----which is a time for people to send one another their greeting of many kinds.
February 14, Valentine’s Day, is sweetheart’s day, on which people in love with each other express their soft feelings.
People sometimes put their
love message in a heart shaped box of chocolate or a bunch of flowers tied with red ribbons. Words of letters may be written on the flower covered card, or something else. Whatever the form may be, the message is almost the same “Will you be my Valentine?”
64. According to the rule_______.
A. no young men could get married unless they were old enough.
B. Young men could get married if they had served the army for a number of years.
no one could get married without the emperor’s permission
