    I've always loved pigeons(鸽子). Some years ago I managed to persuade my wife to let me buy a few and start   16  them myself. They cost a lot of money and so it spoilt(破坏) our 17 a bit, but my wife never actually stopped me so I  18  carried on. I learnt so much about them that I could  19 a good racer anywhere and I bought some beauties. My pigeons won some top races, and I even began to make a bit of   20 .
    You see, people are prepared to pay big prices if they get to know that your pigeons are 21 big prizes.
    My wife had been changing her  22  to the pigeons over the last year or two anyway. She was quite   23  of all the prizes we’d won. Then there was the travelling, which she liked. You see some one has to take the pigeons a  24  way off and set them free. Some of the   25  were really nice. I never travelled. I used to like to wait at home and see them come in. They’ve got this wonderful sense of  26 , which can bring them back home so quickly. They’d flown hundreds of miles sometimes   27  storms or against strong winds. And there they’d come, tiny white birds against the great   28 . Then I'd watch them  29  round and come down onto the landing shelf. I'd look at my watch and think, “My goodness, that’s a good  30 . ”And I'd take off the little leg ring and push it through the machine to  31  what time he’d arrived. Then my wife would  32 up and say, “Has he arrived yet?” Then we would work out if we’d won   33 .
    Then last year we had a   34 ! All of them got some sort of flu and  35 . It was terrible. I had to burn them all. We lost a fortune, of course.

    Having one of those days—or weeks—when everything seems to annoy you? Even if you do nothing about it, your bad mood(心情) will probably go away after some time. But with a little effort, you can forget it much faster—often within a day or two.
    Walk it off
    Exercise is the most popular bad­mood buster. A person who's in a bad mood has low energy and high tension. Taking a fast ten­minute walk, or doing some quick  exercises can do wonders towards changing the bad mood.
    Tune it out
    Listening to your favorite music for a while can also make tension go away quickly, because music starts connection with past positive experiences we've had.
    Give yourself a pep talk
    Stop and listen to what's on your mind. Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts. Write them all down on paper, the pessimistic(悲观的) messages you've been giving yourself, and then give optimistic answers. (“I still don't have a job.” vs “I have two interviews next week.”)
    Reduce your stress
    Relaxation techniques are wonderful mood­lifters. These include deep breathing, stretching and visualizing, all of which sound complicated(复杂的) but aren't. One easy way to visualize: close your eyes and picture a favorite place, such as the beach. Another simple way to distress is to make a to­do list. One reason for being in a bad mood is feeling you have no options. By taking control over certain areas,  you realize you're not helpless. You can make changes in your mood and life.
    Avoid things that won't improve your mood
    TV may not help much: you need to increase your energy level and stimulate(刺激) your mind—something that the TV show “Neighbors” won't do. And before you reach for that piece of cake and coffee, think about how mood and food are linked. Sugar and caffeine contribute to depressed moods. The better choice? Research shows that carbohydrates, such as potatoes and pasta(面食), produce calming effects in people who have a desire for them.
    小题1:Which of the following may help us stop a bad mood?
    A．Doing nothing about it.
    B．Exercising and enjoying music.
    C．Writing down negative thoughts.
    D．Talking about it with neighbors.
    小题2:Why is it suggested that you close your eyes and picture the beach?
    A．It helps remove bad mood.
    B．It brings us a new technique.
    C．It is not complicated to do so.
    D．It is an area to be easily controlled.
    小题3:TV may not improve your mood because it ________.
    A．shows what happens around you
    B．does not energize you
    C．reminds you of eating and drinking
    D．produces a calming effect
    小题4:Which would be the best title for this passage?
    A．Energy Level and Stress
    B．How to Beat a Bad Mood
    C．Bad Mood and Our Life
    D．How to Control Your Feeling

    Only three local students won Chinese Blog（博客）Competition. And 15 of the 18 awards went to students from China. 
    170 students’ task: to get a fully-designed blog up and running, complete with many posting based on a theme of choice—all written in Chinese. 
    Themes ranged from local opinions－such as the usage of Singlish, education and whether Singapore can be a cultural centre－to food blogs. 
    The entries were judged on Language proficiency（熟练程度）and the quality of writing, as well as the design and level of exchanging ideas with readers. 
    Academics from the National University of Singapore and the SIM University IT experts, and a journalist from Chinese newspaper Lianhe Zaobao in Singapore made up the judges. 
    In the end, only three Singaporean students made it to the award list—the rest of the awards were swept up by students from China. 
    “No surprise.” said Mr. Chow Yaw Long, 37, teachers in charge from Ianova Junior College, which organized the event. “Although the topics were local subjects, the foreign students were generally better in terms of the content of the posts and their grasp of the Chinese language.”
    One of the three local students winning the first prize in the Best Language Award was blogger Christina Gao，19, from the Saint Andrew’s Junior College, who spared no effort in researching for and writing her blog. Each entry took her between five and seven days to produce, complete with pictures and even podcasts（播客）.Her advice for bloggers is: Be responsible. “Some bloggers out there only seek to blame the authorities and other bloggers.” Said Miss Gao. “I think they lack responsibilities and there is no value to their posts.”
    小题1:The competition was organized by _______
    A．the National University of Singapore
    B．Chinese newspaper Lianhe Zaobao
    C．Ianova Junior College
    D．the Saint Andrew’s Junior College

    A．Chinese students won most of the awards.
    B．Not all the themes were about local subjects

    小题3:What Miss Gao said suggests that _____________
    A．she likes to blame the authorities
    B．she has a sense of responsibility
    C．she thinks highly of the others’ blogs
    D．she loves to read valuable posts

    Last August, Joe and Mary Mahoney began looking at colleges for their 17-year-old daughter, Maureen. With a checklist of criteria (衡量标准)in hand, the Dallas family looked around the country visiting half a dozen schools. They sought a university that offered the teenager’s intended major, one located near a large city, and a campus where their daughter would be safe.
    “The safety issue is a big one,” says Joe Mahoney, who quickly discovered he wasn’t alone in his worries. On campus tours other parents voiced similar concerns, and the same question was always asked: what about crime? But when college officials always gave the same answer -----“That’s not a problem here,”-----Mahoney began to feel uneasy.
    “No crime whatever?” comments Mahoney today. “I just don’t buy it.” Nor should he: in 1999 the U.S. Department of education had reports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around our campuses. “Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to college,” says David Nichols, author of Creating a Safe Campus. “Campus crime mirrors the rest of the nation.”
    But getting accurate information isn’t easy. Colleges must report crime statistics(统计数字) by law, but some hold back for fear of bad publicity（关注）, leaving the honest ones looking dangerous. “The truth may not always be serious,” warns S. Daniel Carter of Security on Campus, Inc., the nation’s leading campus safety watchdog group.
    To help concerned parents, Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country to find out major crime issues and effective solutions.
    小题1:It is often difficult to get correct information on campus crime because some colleges ____.
    A．receive too many visitorsB．mirror the rest of the nation
    C．hide the truth of campus crimeD．have too many watchdog groups
    小题2:The underlined word “buy” in the third paragraph means _____.
    A．mindB．admitC．believeD．expect
    小题3: We learn from the text that “the honest ones” in the fourth paragraph most probably refers to colleges _____.
    A．that are protected by campus securityB．that report campus crimes by law
    C．that are free from campus crimeD．that enjoy very good publicity
    小题4:What is the text mainly about?
    A．Exact campus crime statistics.B．Crimes on or around campuses.
    C．Effective solutions to campus crime.D．Concerns about kids’ campus safety.

    It is winter in many parts of the world. For some areas, that means snow. Maybe even lots of snow. If you don’t have to drive in it or remove it, snow can be very beautiful. When snow covers everything around you, the world looks like a “winter wonderland”. That is the name of a very popular song about winter. Richard Smith and Felix Bernard wrote the song back in 1934. There are hundreds of recordings of this happy song.
    But winter is not always such a beautiful and happy time. It’s cold outside. You try hard to keep warm. The days are darker and shorter. The sun rarely shines. The leaves on the trees are brown. It isn’t surprising that some people are sad in winter. And some people dream about being somewhere else where it’s warm and pretty—like the state of California. The Mamas and the Papas recorded this famous song “California Dreaming”.
    During the 1960s, many other famous rock groups released songs about winter. Here is a poetic song by Simon and Garfunkel called “A Hazy Shade of Winter”. They sing about life and hope and possibilities.
    In 1968, the group Blood, Sweat and Tears recorded this gentle, sad song about winter. They sing about a lost love and forgotten memories in “Sometimes in Winter”.
    In the early 1990s, Tori Amos wrote and recorded the beautiful song called “Winter”. She enjoyed singing about winter when she was a child.
    Finally, on a happier note comes this song written and recorded by Fountains of Wayne in 2003. They sing about a snowstorm in a New England town. Nothing unusual there. But instead of being sad or tense about the snow, they write a song about it.
    小题1: The underlined sentence “For some areas, that means snow.” probably means 
    _____ .
    A．In some areas, when it’s winter, it must snow
    B．In some areas, it often snows in winter
    C．In some areas, it’s important to snow
    D．In some areas, people like snow in winter
    小题2: According to the second paragraph, winter is _____ .
    A．beautiful and happyB．happy and warm
    C．lovely and hopefulD．cold and sad
    小题3:Which of the songs can bring us hope of life?
    A．Winter Wonderland.B．California Dreaming.
    C．A Hazy Shade of Winter.D．Sometimes in Winter.
    小题4:What does the passage mainly talk about?
    A．Winter in different areas.B．Different ideas about winter.
    C．Songs about winter.D．Winter is cold but happy.
