【题目】I have even wondered if money buys happiness. It seems that money will allow me to buy the things1make me happy. But one day I sat down and made a list of the things I wanted2(do) in my life. I realized I’d never put much thought into it. I’d written down these things —like taking a photo on the mountain and staying at a hotel in Dubai, but I didn’t really plan to do it, 3 (simple) because I didn't have the time.

My life consisted 4 heading to the office, running on the road, working some more …It didn’t matter if my salary doubled; the life would stay 5same. Sure I’d probably drive a 6 (nice) car, move into a bigger place, and have a bigger TV than my friends, but that wasn't helping me realize any of my goals.. Six months after7 (create) that list, my belief has changed. I’d keep working on my list, for 8 (experience) were much more important than any of the material items. It’s not hard to create opportunity for 9 (you). All it 10 (take) is a little creative thinking.

A new study has discovered that meditation(冥想)and oxygen sport together reduce depression. The Rutgers University study found that this mind and body combination, done twice a week for only two months, reduced the symptoms for a group of students by 40 percent.
“We are excited by the findings because we saw such a meaningful improvement in both clinically depressed and non-depressed students,” said lead author Dr. Brandon Alderman. “It is the first time that both of these two behavioral ways have been looked at together for dealing with depression.”
Researchers believe the two activities have an interactive effect in combating depression. Alderman and Dr. Tracey Shors discovered that a combination of mental and physical training (MAP) enabled students with major depressive disorder not to let problems or negative thoughts defeat them.
Rutgers researchers say those who participated in the study began with 30 minutes of focused attention meditation followed by 30 minutes of oxygen sport. They were told that if their thoughts drifted to the past or the future they should refocus on their breathing, enabling those with depression to accept moment-to-moment changes in attention.
Shors, who studies the production of new brain cells in the hippocampus—part of the brain involved in memory and learning—says scientists have shown in animal models that oxygen sport exercise keeps a large number of certain cells alive.
The idea for the human intervention(干预)came from her laboratory studies, she says, with the main goal of helping individuals acquire new skills so that they can learn to recover from stressful life events.
By learning to focus their attention and exercise, people who are fighting depression can acquire new learning skills that can help them process information and reduce the overwhelming recollection of memories from the past, Shors says.
“We know these treatments can be practiced over a lifetime and that they will be effective in improving mental health.” said Alderman. “The good news is that this intervention can be practiced by anyone at any time and at no cost.”
(1)What made the research so different?
A.Adopting a way of meaningful talk.
B.Combining the two behavioral ways to treat depression.
C.Treating depression with special medicine.
D.Comparing the depressed with the non-depressed.
(2)The underlined word “combating” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by ______.
A.fighting
B.identifying
C.distinguishing
D.examining
(3)What did the participants do in the research?
A.They did oxygen sport half an hour before thinking.
B.They thought quietly and then took exercise.
C.They took exercise longer than they thought.
D.They took exercise while thinking quietly.
(4)What is Shors' main purpose of her studies?
A.To find out certain brain cells of humans.
B.To study the production of new brain cells.
C.To offer people a new method to treat stress.
D.To decide the links between stress and exercise.

【题目】阅读理解
A day in the life of 18-year-old David Lanster is full if typical teenage stuff: school, baseball practice and homework. And then he starts cooking. “Some nights I'm up until 1:00 a.m. making pies, or even later if we're cooking beef,” said the student at Ransom Everglades High School in Florida, US.
For the past year, Lanster and Kelly Moran, his classmate, have been hosting fancy dinner parties at Lanster's parents' home. Their meals have 17 courses and are all made by them. Their guests used to give them gifts to thank them until the pair decided to do something nice for charity(慈善). “We got some really great Miami Heat tickets, a nice watch, and many kitchen gadgets(小器具),” Lanster said. “But we wanted to make this something positive for people other than us.”
Lanster and Moran focused on Common Threads, a charity that aims to teach kids in poor communities to cook and make healthy eating choices. The young cooks ask their guests to give however much they want as payment for their meals. It all goes to Common Threads because Lanster's parents cover their food costs. After their last 12-person event, Lanster and Moran gave $1,600 to the charity.
Now, they're taking their show out of the kitchen and on the road. They have started to organize private dinner parties with a similar model: the host pays for the ingredients, and the guests make a donation to a charity of their choice.
Without formal training, Lanster said he had been interested in cooking since he helped his mom in the kitchen when he was very young. He learned how to cook by reading cookbooks and watching TV programs. Outside the kitchen, the two are busy preparing their college applications. Neither of them is sure what they will do in the future, but they're promised their parents that they will leave professional cooking alone until they finish school.
(1)How is Lanster's life different from other teenagers' lives?
A.He plans to become a professional chef.
B.He plays baseball every day after school.
C.He goes to a cooking school in his spare time.
D.He holds dinner parties after a normal school day.
(2)What will Lanster and Moran usually do after a private dinner party?
A.Receive thank-you cards from the guests.
B.Visit the poor children at Common Threads.
C.Ask the guests to donate money to the charity.
D.Cover the food costs with the money collected.
(3)Which of the following words can best describe Lanster and Moran?
A.Ambitious.
B.Generous.
C.Creative.
D.Optimistic.

【题目】Every student is eager to achieve the goals they have set earlier. Here is what experts advise on how to do it.

1 When it comes to choosing your goal, make sure that it states exactly what it is that you want to achieve. If your goal seems too big, divide it into simpler, easier tasks.

Write down your goal. You can write it in a journal or write it on a sticky note. Writing keeps your memory fresh and helps you clear up the clutter (杂乱) in your brain. Try to keep a journal or a diary.

Break your goal down. By chopping your goal up into manageable sections, it allows you to mentally make your way through the goal until the end of a year. 2 Therefore, you’re far less likely to give up or dodge (逃避) your goal by taking shortcuts or refusing to do anything.

Put a brake (阻力) on distractions. Turn off all distractions like TV, the Internet, your phone and every other gadget you have at home.3

Make it happen.4 Thinking is a useful start but thinking doesn’t do the heavy work and thinking certainly won’t move mountains. Go out every morning knowing what you need to do and then do it!

Stay positive. Keep saying that you can do it. Stay motivated and be confident.

Reward yourself.5 Every once in a while, if you complete a goal, treat yourself than extra bar of chocolate or make time to read that book you’ve been wanting to read since two months ago.

A. Don’t think to yourself that over time you will manage to do it

B. Choose a specific, realistic and important goal

C. It is necessary to choose a proper way to finish the goals

D. Carry out your goal as soon as possible

E. Don’t be too hard on yourself

F. This method makes it easier to deal with

G. Keep emails, phone calls, texts, etc. to a minimum.
