    When I left my bag on a train, I lost my most precious possession, a small framed photograph of my great grandparents, Emily and Gordon Baker. The frame was made of silver, with an elegant flower design in one corner. The photograph was taken in March 1939 0n their wedding day. Emily looked very happy, and Gordon looked rather a larmed.  A few months later, he was killed in action in North Africa. I received the photograph when my aunt Mabel died.
    I'm a student at Edinburgh University and I live in an old Edwardian house.  At the end of last term, I packed a large bag and a small bag and set off for London, where I was planning to catch the Eurostar train to Paris. Minutes after getting off the train at Kings Cross Station, I realized that I'd left the small bag in the overhead luggage rack. I ran back to the train, but it had already left the platform.  www.com
    This all happened several months ago, and I had become resigned to the loss of my most precious possession. then last week, something extraordinary happened. I logged onto the site ~ eBay and looked for a silver photo frame and I found it ! The photo of my great grandparents was on eBay !
    I called the person who was advertising it.   He was a little suspicious(怀疑 )  at first, and told me that he had bought it from a stall at an antique market. After we talked for a while, he asked if there was any way I could prove it was mine. All I could think of was that the photo was taken in March 1939. He opened the frame and made sure that this date was written by hand on the back of the photograph.

    I had an experience once which taught me something about the ways people made a bad situation worse by blaming themselves. One January, I officiated(主持) at two funerals for two elderly women. Both died a natural death. At the first home, the son of the deceased(已故) woman said, “If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It’s my fault that she died.” At the second home, the son said, “If only I had not insisted her going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride was more than she could take. It is my fault.”
    When things don’t turn out as we would like them to, we tend to assume that had we done things differently, the story would have had a happier ending. Any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course, for example, keeping mother at home, would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse?
    There seem to be elements involved in our readiness to feel guilty. The first lies in our belief that the world makes sense——there is a reason for everything that happens.   
    The second is the thought that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood. A baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and calls the rest of the world to its tasks. He cries, and someone comes to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we do not completely abandon that childish thought that our wishes cause things to happen.
    小题1: What is true about the two deceased elderly women?
    A．They died from accidents.
    B．They both died of old age.
    C．They died due to lack of care by family members.
    D．They weren’t accustomed to the change in life.
    小题2: People feel guilty for the death of their loved ones because______.
    A．they cannot find a better way to express their sorrow
    B．they don’t know that natural course of events
    C．they believe that it is their fault
    D．they don’t know things often turn out in the opposite direction
    小题3:People have believed since early childhood that   .
    A． everybody is at their command
    B． life and death is an unsolved mystery
    C． every story should have a happy ending
    D． their wishes are the cause of everything that happens
    小题4: What is the main idea of this passage?
    A． Two sons blamed themselves for their mother's death.
    B． Things don't always go well as we expect.
    C． Two factors account for guilty sense.
    D．Baby's wishes lead everything to happen.

    If we are asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we might have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and written in it an account (陈述) of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.
    It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a great deal about the people who lived in china 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for whose who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned go write.
    Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people, and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and those have been sung and acted and told for many generations, for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call ‘remembered history’. Some of it has now been written history, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful.  
    小题1: Which of the following ideas is NOT talked about in the passage above?
    A．“Remembered history” is less reliable than written history.
    B．Written records of the past played a most important in our learning of the human history.
    C．A written account of our daily activities helps us to remember what we have done
    D．Where there are no written records, there is no history.
    小题2:Remembered history”refers to          .
    A．history based on a person’s imagination
    B．stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouth
    C．history written down in books
    D．what we have learned and remembered in history lessons
    小题3:“Remembered history”is regarded as valuable only when       .
    A．it is written downB．there is no written account
    C．is proves downD．people are interested in it
    小题4: It can be inferred from the passage that we could have learned much more about our past than we do now if our ancestors had      .
    A．kept a written record of every past event
    B．not fought against one another in wars
    C．told exact stories of the most important happenings
    D．produced and taught more songs and dances

    The fact that blind people can see things using other parts of their bodies apart from their eyes may help us understand our feeling about color. If they sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color without knowing it.
    Salesmen have discovered by experience over a long period of time that sugar sells badly in green wrappings（包装）， that blue foods are considered not agreeable to the taste, and that cosmetics（化妆品） should never be packed in brown. Their discoveries have grown into a whole subject of color psychology（心理学）。 Some of our preferences（偏爱） for colors are clearly psychological. Dark blue is the color of the night sky and therefore connected with calm, while yellow is a day color connected with energy and encouragement. Experiments have shown that colors, partly because they are connected with psychology, also have a direct effect on people’s mind. People in bright red surroundings show an increase in breathing speed, heartbeat and blood pressure; red is exciting. Pure blue has exactly the opposite effect; it is a calming color. Being exciting, red was chosen as the signal for danger, but a close study shows that a bright yellow can produce a more basic state of alarm, so fire engines in some advanced areas are now rushing around in bright yellow colors that stop buses, trucks and cars.
    小题1:. The passage tells us that salesmen have __________.
    A．discovered the relationship between color and psychology
    B．tried out colors on blind people
    C．found out that color affect sales
    D．developed a special subject of color psychology
    小题2:. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
    A．what color we prefer depends on our state of mind
    B．foods sell well in green or blue wrappings
    C．blind people cannot sense color difference
    D．a bright yellow has exactly the opposite effect to red
    小题3:. If people are exposed to（置身于） pure blue, _________.
    A．their blood pressure rises　　
    B．they want to taste blue foods
    C．they will feel like buying things
    D．they won’t easily feel nervous
    小题4:. Which of the following do you think is the best title of the passage?
    A．Colors and salesB．Colors and feelings
    C．The blind and colorsD．Preferences for colors

    More and more people take part in marathons these days – over 30,000 people will run the London Marathon this weekend, for instance. But it’s not just the 26 miles and 385 yards that could be a daunting prospect. “I have to admit to being completely frustrated by the blocking and for 18-19 miles was just keeping away from people and being held up,” one participant grumbled after the 2012 London Marathon. “I had to overtake a lot of people and ended up with bruised（淤肿的）forearms from all the elbows,” said another.
    How do such crowding problems arise, and could they be reduced? Some researchers believe that we can find the answers through a more familiar system in which jams appear – road traffic flow. Martin Treiber, of the Technical University of Dresden in Germany, has previously developed models for traffic flow. One of the first attempts to model traffic flow was made in the 1950s by James Lighthill and his collaborator Gerard Whitham of Manchester University. They considered the traffic as a kind of liquid flowing down a pipe, and looked at how the flow changes as the fluid gets denser(浓稠). At first the flow rate increases as the density increases, since you simply get more stuff through in the same period of time. But if the density becomes too high, there’s a risk of jams, and the flow rate drops sharply.
    Treiber’s model of a marathon uses this same principle that the flow rate first increases and then decreases as the density of runners increases, thanks to an sudden switch from free to crowded flow. He assumes that there is a range of different preferred speeds for different runners, which each maintains throughout the race. With just these factors, Treiber can calculate the flow rate of runners, knowing the “carrying capacity”(承载能力)at each point on the route.
    This allows Treiber to figure out how blocking might depend on the race conditions – for example, for different starting procedures. Some marathons start by letting all the runners set off at once (which means those at the back have to wait until those in front have moved forward). Others assign runners to various groups according to ability, and let them start in a series of waves.
    Treiber has applied the model to the annual Rennsteig half-marathon in central Germany, which attracts around 6,000 participants. The traditional route had to be changed in 2013, because the police were no longer willing to close a road to ensure that runners could cross safely. It could pass either over a 60m wooden bridge or through a tunnel. Treiber used his model to predict the likely blocking caused in the various options. The model predicted that a mass start would risk an overload of runners if the bridge were to be used. Only by moving the starting point further back from the bridge could the danger be avoided – and even then, if some of the numbers assumed in the model were only slightly inaccurate, there was still a risk of jams at the bridge. On the other hand, no dangerous blocking seemed likely for the tunnel route. The run organizers consulted Treiber’s team, and eventually chose this option.
    小题1:What is the worst thing while running a marathon?
    A．The long distance.B．Too many participants.
    C．The dangerous blocking.D．Serious injuries in forearms.
    小题2:Which of the following statements is true?
    A．James Lighthill is the first expert trying to model traffic flow.
    B．The denser the flow is, the faster the flow rate becomes.
    C．The flow rate increases in the beginning because fewer people passed together.
    D．The flow rate increases first and then decreases later when the flow is too denser.
    小题3:What is NOT true about the Rennsteig?
    A．It has much less participants than the London Marathon in 2014.
    B．It has a shorter distance than the London Marathon.
    C．The route was changed because the traditional one is not safe any longer.
    D．The participants running this marathon will pass a tunnel because this choice is safer.
    小题4:What’s the main idea of the passage?
    A．Make a comparison between marathon and road traffic.
    B．Running a marathon is somewhat dangerous if it is not well organized.
    C．Introduce a new technology to solve the blocking problem in marathon.
    D．Some advice for people who are to run a marathon.

    Being young is great. Most of the parts of your body still work great, you have a full head of hair, you’re energetic, and you have a world of opportunity in front of you. However, there’s going to come a time when you start to get older. And as you get older, you’ll have new responsibilities, complete independence, and perhaps most importantly, less time to recover from mistakes.
    You see, we all make mistakes in life. Maybe you spent more money than you should have on a car, you passed up on a great job opportunity, or you didn’t try as hard as you could have in school. It’s a part of life and we learn from it. But there are certain mistakes that are much better made while you’re still young and have plenty of time to recover.
    I’m definitely not telling you that you should purposely go out and make these mistakes (because they’re a pain to recover from). But these are all mistakes that are much better made when you’re younger so that you can learn from them and not have them ruin your entire life.
    Starting the wrong career
    Wouldn’t you hate to be 45 years old and discover that you absolutely hate what you do for a living? It’s a reality that a lot of people face and it can be difficult to fix. You see, when you’re 23 and find out you don’t like the career path you’ve chosen, you can easily explore new career options.
    We no longer live in an age when people are expected to stay with one company until they retire. You can bounce around a little bit and find out what you want to do. When you get older, just switching careers whenever you want isn’t as simple.
    You have to consider your family, retirement, the difficulties you might run into with starting from the bottom in a new industry, and plenty of other issues that someone in their early 20’s just doesn’t have to deal with.
    Dating the wrong person
    The divorce rate in the U.S is extremely high. Other parts of the world aren’t doing too much better either. While everyone gets divorced for their own reasons, I think we can all agree that it’s better to find out that the person you’re with is wrong for you sooner rather than later.
    Hopefully you find out whether or not the person you’re with is right for you before you tie the knot, because around 50% of first marriages end in divorce.
    Messing up your credit
    Ruining your credit is never a good idea. Even if you ruin it while you’re young, it could affect you in the future. The upside of having bad credit while you’re young instead of older is that you have time to build it back up.
    It can take 7-10 years to rebuild your credit if you have a history of late payments, loan defaults, foreclosures, or bankruptcy. During those 7-10 years, you’ll have a hard time financing anything unless you have a cosigner or put down a substantial down payment.
    Most people tend to make most of the bigger purchases in life when they get older such as a house or their dream car. If you have bad credit, you can kiss all of that goodbye.
    Making bad investments
    If you’re investing money for your retirement, making bad decisions can mean you’ll be working your entire life. Whether you choose to pay someone to do the investing for you or handle it all yourself, it’s a lot better to take risks when you’re younger.
    If you invest in stock or even real estate while you’re young and the market takes a hit, you’re not ruined. Investing is a long-term venture, so the younger you start, the more fluctuation you can withstand and still come out with a positive return.
    Blowing your money
    What would you do if you went broke at 60 years old? You would be working your behind off when you really should be relaxing and getting ready to retire soon.
    But if you’re 25 and broke, you still have plenty of time to earn more money. Also, nobody will judge you because it’s not unusual for people in their 20’s to not have money these days. You might have blown your money on a nice car or have an obsession with all the newest gadgets.
    When you get older, you’ll be able to look back and realize how dumb you were for spending $20,000 on a brand new car when you were only 20 years old. But when you’re older and waste your money, you’ll REALLY have nothing to show for it.
    小题1:The following are all the advantages of being young EXCEPT ___________.
    A．you have more time to recover from mistakes
    B．most of the parts of your body still work great
    C．you have many responsibilities and complete independence
    D．you have a world of opportunity in front of you
    小题2:You can bounce around a little bit and find out what you want to do. “Bounce” in this sentence is most similar in meaning to __________.
    A．My father would burst into the kitchen bouncing a football.
    B．The wind was bouncing the branches of the big oak trees.
    C．I was an army brat, I always bounced a lot when I was young
    D．The ex-boxer's job is to bounce people who want to enter this private club.
    小题3: What does the author really mean by saying “it’s a lot better to take risks when you’re younger”?
    A．You should purposely go out and make these mistakes so that you can learn from them and not have them ruin your entire life.
    B．There are certain mistakes that are much better made while you’re still young and have plenty of time to recover.
    C．When you get older, you’ll have rich experiences to share with your friends and families however dumb you were
    D．The younger you start, the fewer risks you can withstand and still come out with a positive return.
    小题4:We can infer from the passage that ___________.
    A．about 50% of first marriages end in divorce in the U.S, much higher than other parts of the world
    B．never tie the knot before you make sure he or she will not divorce you
    C．it usually takes 7-10 years to rebuild one’s credit if it is broken for any reason
    D．it’s unusual for people in their 20’s to have money these days
    小题5:The author wrote this article mainly to tell the young ____________.
    A．if you are to take risks, the earlier, the better
    B．it’s better for the young to take any risk than the older
    C．that they should make big purchases such as a house when they get older
    D．if you don’t take risks when young, your youth will be dumb

    Women are friendly. But men are more competitive. Why? Researchers have found it's all down to the hormone oxytocin (荷尔蒙催生素). Although known as the love hormone, it affects the sexes differently.
    "Women tend to be social in their behavior. They often share with others. But men lend to be competitive. They are trying to improve their social status," said Professor Ryan.
    Generally, people believe that the hormone oxytocin is let out in our body in various social situations and
    our body creates a large amount of it during positive social interactions (互动) such as falling in love or giving birth.
    But in a previous experiment Professor Ryan found that the hormone is also let out in our body during negative social interactions such as envy.
    Further researches showed that in men the hormone oxytocin improves the ability to recognize competitive relationships, but in women it raises the ability to recognize friendship. Professor Ryan's recent experiment used 62 men and women aged 20 to 37. Half of the participants（参与者）received oxytocin. The other half received placebo (安慰剂).
    After a week, the two groups switched with participants. They went tlirough the same procedure with the other material.
    Following each treatment, they were shown some video pictures with different social interactions. Then they were asked to analyze the relationships by answering some questions. The questions were about telling friendship from competition. And their answers should be based on gestures, body language and facial expressions.
    The results indicated that, after treatment with oxytocin, men's ability to correctly recognize competitive relationships improved, but in women it was the ability to correctly recognize friendship that got better.
    Professor Ryan thus concluded: "Our experiment proves that the hormone oxytocin can raise people's abilities to better distinguish different social interactions. And the behavior differences between men and women are caused by biological factors (因素) that are mainly hormonal."
    小题1:What causes men and women to behave differently according to the text?
    A．Placebo.B．Oxytocin.
    C．The gesture. D．The social status.
    小题2:What can we learn from Professor Ryan's previous experiment?
    A．Oxytocin affects our behavior in a different way.
    B．Our body lets out oxytocin when we are deep in love.
    C．Our body produces oxytocin when we feel unhappy about others' success.
    D．Oxytocin improves our abilities to understand people's behavior differences.
    小题3:Why did Professor Ryan conduct the recent experiment?
    A．To test the effect of oxytocin on the ability to recognize social interactions.
    B．To know the differences between friendship and competition.
    C．To know people's different abilities to answer questions.
    D．To test people's understanding of body language.
    小题4:The author develops the text by______.
    A．explaining people's behaviors
    B．describing his own experiences
    C．distinguishing sexual differences
    D．discussing research experiments

    In the year 480 BC the Greek allies (联军) faced invasion by the King of Persia, Xerxes, who commanded a huge army of about half a million men. When the Persian army marched into northern Greece, the Greek states, led by Athens and Sparta, were ill equipped to deal with the threat. The Persians were well supplied with food and weapons. Their army included infantry, cavalry, and a large navy. It seemed that they would easily defeat the Greeks.
    The Greek allies decided to send 10,000 men northwards to slow down the Persians, while the rest prepared to defend their homelands. A group of 300 best Spartan soldiers were chosen to lead the force going north, with Leonidas in command. Leonidas realized that the only hope of slowing the Persians would be to block the narrow passage of land at Thermopylae. The Pass of
    Thermopylae was the route between the mountains and the sea, and was so narrow that only a few men could get through at a time.
    When the Persian army arrived at Thermopylae, they found Leonidas' tiny army opposing them. The Persians attacked, but could not get through. They attacked again and again, but each time they were driven back by the Greeks, led by the fearless Spartans. Leonidas' plan worked well until a Greek traitor called Ephialtes went m Xerxes. He told the Persian king about a goat's path in the mountains that would take the Persian army past Thermopylae. When Leonidas saw the enemy crossing the mountains, he realized that he could no longer hold Thermopylae. He sent all the Greek soldiers except the 300 Spartans back to their homelands.
    The Spartans waited for the 500,000 Persians at the goat’s path. Although hopelessly outnumbered, the Spartans fought bravely. They all died, but the other Greeks were able to get home to strengthen the defenses.
