    Is there something that you’ve always wanted to try but just never had the time? Well, make plans to try it now since you are on summer vacation．Not all vacations call for taking a tour bus to take photos of famous landmarks. Some vacations allow you plenty of opportunities to learn.
    The most difficult aspect of a learning vacation vacation may be choosing one because the possibilities are endless．If you enjoy cooking, various companies can take you to Italy, France, Spain, Mexico or even Peru. Once there, you can learn to prepare the local cuisine（烹饪）. Trips are often planned to fit in with local food festivals or special events.
    The term “learning vacation” often brings language to mind. The best way to learn a language is in an environment where it’s spoken. Study Spanish, French or English. Or attempt a more unusual language like Polish, Estonian or Thai. You’ll be able to learn about the country and absorb the culture at the same time.
    If you are fond of sports, you can polish your skills or learn new ones. Golf and tennis schools welcome players of all levels. If you want a bigger thrill, you can learn to surf, go climbing or race cars. It’s even possible to learn the art and techniques of bull fighting while on vacation!
    You can also discover our inner artist. Many places offer painting classes in different mediums. The scenic locations of the schools offer plenty of subjects that provide inspiration for practice.
    If you prefer capturing the world on film, take a photography vacation. Travel with a small group to photograph beautiful animals or scenery. You can also practise your technique on people or at historical sights.
    Once you decide on a vacation, choose a company carefully. Request names of recent customers you can contact, and then ask them for an evaluation. The more you know before you go, the better prepared you’ll be. Then go out and learn something!
    56．Why is it hard for you to decide on a learning vacation?
    A．Because it is hard for you to make plans.
    B．Because the possibilities are unlimited.
    C．Because there are many good foods from abroad.

             According to the report by Baekeland and Hartmann, two American authoritative psychotogical research centres, the "short sleepers" had been more or less average in their sleep needs until the men were in their teens．But at about age 15 or so, the men voluntarily began cutting down their nightly sleep time because of pressures from school, work and other activities. These men tended to view their nightly periods of unconsciousness as bothersome interruptions, in their daily routines.
    In general, these "short sleeps" appeared ambitious, active, energetic, cheerful,, conformist （循规蹈矩的） in their opinions, and very sure about their career choices．They often held several jobs at once, or workers full - or part - time while going to school．And many of them had a strong urge to appear "normal" or "acceptable" to their friends and associates．When asked to recall their dreams, the "short sleepers" did poorly．More than this, they seemed to prefer not remembering．In similar fashion, their usual way of dealing with psychological problems was to deny that the problem existed, and then to keep busy m the hope that the trouble would go away．The sleep patterns of the “short sleepers" were similar to, but less extreme than, sleep patterns shown by many mental patients categorized as manic （疯人）.
    The "long sleepers" were quite different indeed．Baekeland and Hartmann report that these young men had been lengthy sleeps since childhood．They seemed to enjoy their sleep, protected it, and were quite concerned when they were occasionally deprived （剥夺） of their desired 9 hours of nightly bed rest．They tended to recall their dreams much better than the "short sleepers．" did．Many of the "long sleepers" were shy, anxious, introverted （内向）, inhibited （压抑） , passive, mildly depressed, and unsure of themselves （particularly in social situations）．Several openly states that sleep was an escape from their daily problems．
    50．According to the text, which is probably the writer' s real attitude towards these two living habits ____．
    A．both of them are healthy habits  
    B．not both of them are unhealthy habits
    C．either of them is not unhealthy habits
    D．neither of them is healthy habits
    51．When sometimes they cannot enjoy adequate sleep, the long sleepers might ____．
    A．feel extremely depressed         B．become energetic
    C．appeared disturbed          D．feel disappointed
    52．The writer implies （暗示） that short sleepers _____ in the text．

    Attitude is an internal（内在的）state that influences the choices of personal action made by the individual. Some researchers consider that attitudes come from differences between beliefs and ideas; others believe that attitudes come from emotional states. Here, we focus on the effects of attitudes upon behavior, that is, upon the choices of action made by the individual.
    The kinds of actions taken by human beings are obviously influenced greatly by attitudes. Whether one listens to classical music or rock, whether one obeys the speed limit while driving, whether one encourages one’s husband or wife to express his or her own ideas－all are influenced by attitudes. These internal states are acquired throughout life from situations one is faced with in the home, in the streets, and in the school.
    Of course, the course of action chosen by an individual in any situation will be largely determined by the particulars of that situation. An individual who has a strong attitude of obeying laws may drive too fast when he is in a hurry and no police cars in sight. A child who has a strong attitude of honesty may steal a penny when she thinks no one will notice. But the internal state which remains unchanged over a period of time, and which makes the individual behave regularly in a variety of situations, is what is meant by an attitude.
    Attitudes are learned in a variety of ways. They can result from single incidents, as when an attitude toward snakes is acquired by an experience in childhood at the sudden movement of a snake. They can result from the individual’s experiences of success and pleasure, as when someone acquires a positive attitude toward doing crossword puzzles by being able to complete some of them. And frequently, they are learned by copying other people’s behavior, as when a child learns how to behave toward foreigners by observing the actions of his parents. Regardless of these differences, there is something in common in the learning and modification（修正）of attitudes.
    72. According to the passage, attitudes _______ .
    A. come from different situations in one’s life    
    B. are largely affected by one’s behavior
    C. remain unchanged in one’s daily life                                  
    D. could be chosen according to one’s will
    73. The author uses the examples in Paragraph 3 to show _______ .
    A. people often make mistakes when they are not noticed
    B. people with good attitudes may sometimes do bad deeds
    C. particulars of a situation may influence an individual’s action
    D. an individual may change his or her attitude fairly easily
    74. Which of the following is TRUE about the learning of attitudes?
    A. Attitudes are only learned through one’s success.
    B. Attitudes learned in danger will last longer.
    C. Copying others’ behavior is not a good idea.
    D. Attitudes can be learned from one’s parents.
    75. What would be the best title for the passage?
    A. Differences of Attitudes.   B. Nature of Attitude.
    C. Choices of Attitudes. D. Modification of Attitude.

    Beijing plans to build huge free or low-cost parking lots beyond the Fourth and Fifth Ring Roads to encourage more car owners to take buses or subways to the downtown area．
    The plan is just one of the many measures the city plans to take to reduce its traffic jams．Low or no parking fees would be used as economic leverage(杠杆作用) to reduce growing parking demands from urban areas．
    Car owners living in the suburbs will be encouraged to park their cars beyond the Fourth and Fifth Ring Roads and take buses or subways to the downtown area．Statistics show that nearly one quarter of the city’s traffic flow is concentrated in the 62-square-kilometer downtown area within the Second Ring Road, which makes up only 12 percent of the city’s total area．
    The Beijing Traffic Management Bureau receives between 400 and 500 calls reporting traffic jams every day and more than 90 percent of the roads are filled to capacity during rush hours every morning and evening．Part of the problem is the lack of easy links between bus routes, subways and cars．
    According to the communication commission, half of the city’s investment in transportation will go towards public transit（公共交通） construction in the next few years, making a jump from the current only 20 per cent．Moreover, Beijing plans to change its layout （布局） by building new city centers, such as at Yizhuang, Tongzhou, Shunyi and Changping, in a bid to reduce the traffic flow to the downtown．
    The current layout of Beijing-expanded ring roads around the same center of the Forbidden City, is seen as the root cause of the endless traffic jams．The downtown area is crowded with three business centers and one financial center, as well as nearly 400 government organs and institutions．
    Traffic experts say building more urban centers around Beijing may reduce the number of residents living in the suburbs and traveling long distances to work downtown every day, thus reducing traffic flow．
    40．In the coming years, if a man beyond the Fourth Ring Road goes to work in the downtown of Beijing, he is encouraged to _________．
    A．take buses or subways     B．take a taxi
    C．drive the car quickly           D．park his car in a place which asks for no fees
    41．According to this passage, when more and more people drive to work in rush hour in Beijing, it is likely to _______．
    A．save time                B．cause traffic jams
    C．cause traffic accidents     D．reduce air pollution
    42．The aim in building new city centers is to ________．
    A．make it convenient for people to go shopping
    B．develop its local resources
    C．reduce the traffic flow to the downtown
    D．solve the problem of more laid-off workers
    43．The passage suggests the author ______．
    A．is tired of driving to work
    B．finds it costs less to take subways than to drive
    C．is for the plan to reduce Beijing’s traffic congestion(拥挤)
    D．has benefited a lot by driving to the downtown every day

    Communication technologies are far from equal when it comes to conveying the truth．The first study to compare honesty across a range of communications media has found that people are twice as likely to tell lies in phone conversations as they are in emails．The fact that emails are automatically recorded—and can come back to haunt（困扰） you—appears to be the key to the finding．
    Jeff Hancock of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, asked 30 students to keep a communications diary for a week．In it they noted the number of conversations or email exchanges they had lasting more than 10 minutes, and confessed to how many lies they told．Hancock then worked out the number of lies per conversation for each medium．He found that lies made up 14 percent of emails, 21 percent of instant messages, 27 percent of face-to-face interactions and an astonishing 37 percent of phone calls．
    His results, to be presented at the conference on human-computer interaction in Vienna, Austria, in April, have surprised psychologists．Some expected emailers to be the biggest liars, reasoning that because deception makes people uncomfortable, the detachment（非直接接触） of emailing would make it easier to lie．Others expected people to lie more in face-to-face exchanges because we are most practiced at that form of communication．
    But Hancock says it is also crucial whether a conversation is being recorded and could be reread, and whether it occurs in real time．People appear to be afraid to lie when they know the communication could later be used to hold them to account, he says．This is why fewer lies appear in email than on the phone．
    People are also more likely to lie in real time—in an instant message or phone call, say—than if they have time to think of a response, says Hancock．He found many lies are spontaneous（脱口而出的） responses to an unexpected demand, such as: “Do you like my dress?”
    Hancock hopes his research will help companies work out the best ways for their employees to communicate．For instance, the phone might be the best medium for sales where employees are encouraged to stretch the truth．But given his result, work assessment, where honesty is a priority, might be best done using email．
    57．Hancock’s study focuses on ________．
    A．the consequences of lying in various communications media
    B．the success of communications technologies in conveying ideas
    C．people’s preference in selecting communications technologies
    D．people’s honesty levels across a range of communications media
    58．Hancock’s research finding surprised those who believed that ________．
    A．people are less likely to lie in instant messages
    B．people are unlikely to lie in face-to-face interactions
    C．people are most likely to lie in email communication
    D．people are twice as likely to lie in phone conversations
    59．According to the passage, why are people more likely to tell the truth through certain media of communication?
    A．They are afraid of leaving behind traces of their lies
    B．They believe that honesty is the best policy
    C．They tend to be relaxed when using those media
    D．They are most practiced at those forms of communication
    60．According to Hancock, the telephone is a preferable medium for promoting sales because ________．
    A．salesmen can talk directly to their customers
    B．salesmen may feel less restrained to exaggerate
    C．salesmen can impress customers as being trustworthy
    D．salesmen may pass on instant messages effectively

    Millions of young people are writing blogs. Millions of others are reading them. The word "blog" is a short way of saying Web log.
    Many popular Web sites now offer free, easy ways to create personal Web pages and fill them with writings and pictures. Web sites called "Facebook" and "MySpace" are some of the most popular blog sites for young people. Many young adults use their blogs to write about daily activities and events in their lives. They also provide a place for people to write their ideas and opinions and how they think of others’ ideas.
    Blogs offer young people a place to show their writings and feelings. They can also be helpful to connect young people with others. But blogs can become dangerous when they are read on the Internet by millions of people all over the world.
    Recent studies show that young people often provide their names, age and where they live on the Internet. That may not be safe for them. This personal information puts them at risk of being searched out by dangerous people who want to hurt them. Many students do not know about privacy and are surprised to learn that adults can read their personal daily records easily. Students can also get into trouble when they put information about others on their blogs. 
    As a result, many schools have banned the use of blogging web sites on school computers. Many schools have also begun teaching parents about the web sites. Parents should know what their children are doing online and should read their blogs to make sure they are not giving out private information. One way to keep away from these problems is to use programs so that blogs can be read by "friends only." people can read the website only if they know a secret word chosen by the blogger.
    60. "Facebook" and "MySpace" are ________.
    A. school subjects                               B. computer programs

    B
    Whether rich or poor, we all have problems: that unfaithful mate, that annoying colleague, that persistent(持久的) disease, and the investment that is turning into a huge loss.
    How can we remain calm, positive and even elegant in the face of all these difficulties of
    life?
    The following suggestions may help.
    It comes with the pay. I have a friend who used to complain about her dead-end job and
    unreasonable boss. Sounds familiar? One day I told her, "Look at it this way. You are getting
    paid for the annoyance as well as the work. It comes with the pay. "
    This has become my favorite saying for work-related frustrations. "Take every day as a bo-
    nus. " When we learn to treasure every moment of what we have, we begin to see life in a whole
    new attitude.
    It's all in the mind. Sure, the psychologists tell us it is important that we work at resol-
    ving problems. But they also say if you try to resolve a problem that would not go away, it would
    only compound(使更复杂) the frustration.
    If you tell yourself there isn' t a problem, there won' t be one. It is all in the mind.
    Stop thinking about your own problem-help others instead. A lady who is struggling a
    life-threatening disease showed she coped with her illness by making herself useful, by offering
    help to others in a similar situation.
    She has spoken to at least five other women with breast cancer. She says that the sharing
    has helped her to find fresh meaning in her own life.
    Never give up on your dream. Why do we give in or give up when we meet difficulities?
    ls it because we have no confidenee in our cause and no commitment (承担义务)for what we
    pursue?
    One strong-hearted lady was the late head of the tragic Kennedy family, Rose Kennedy.
    She said this on nationwide television one week after losing yet another son to assassin's( 暗杀者) bullet--Boddy Kennedy:"And we go on our way with no regrets not looking backwards to
    the past, but we shall carry on with courage. "
    Not the end of the world. Do you know something else? I' ve learned that care as you
    might, love as,you might, some people don't care back.
    And it is not the end of the world. After all, it's not the event that makes a person, is it?
    It's what we do about what happens to us.
    It was said that Albert Einstein' s last request on his death bed was to be given his equa-
    tions(方程式) and his unfinished statement. Einstein first picked up his equations and lament-
    ed(悲叹) to his son, "if only I had more mathematics!" What a great persistent spirit!
    45. All of the followings are wrong EXCEPT_____.
    A. some people have many problems while some have none
    B. Albert Einstein pursued his dream till the last minute of his life
    C. Rose Kennedy must be a timid (缺乏自信的) woman
    D. we shouldn' t love those who don' t care about us
    46. The passage is intended to inform the readers_____ .
    A. how to face problems                       B. how to resolve problems
    C. how to hold on to your dreams              D. how to help others
    47. By saying "Take every day as a bonus", the author is trying to tell us __.
    A. we should get a bonus every day     B. we should treasure every day in our life
    C. we should make advances every day  D. we should enjoy ourselves every day

    Do you want to improve the way you study? Do you feel nervous before a test? Many students say that a lack of concentration is their biggest problem. It has bad effects on their ability to study, so do their test results.
    If so, use these tips to help you.
    Study Techniques  
    You should always study in the same place. You shouldn’t sit in a position that you use for another purpose. For example, when you sit on a sofa to study, your brain will think it is time to relax. Don’t watch TV while you are studying. Experts warn that your concentration may be reduced by 50 percent if you attempt to study in this way. Always try to have a white wall in front of you, so there is nothing to distract (make less concentrated) you. Before sitting down to study, gather together all the equipment you need. Apart from your textbooks, pens, pencils and knives, make sure you have a dictionary. If your study desk or table is needed when you are not studying, store all your equipment in a box beside it.
    Your eyes will become tired if you try to read a text which is on a flat surface. Position your book at an angle of 30 degrees.
    Be realistic and don’t try to complete too much in one study period. Finish one thing before beginning another. If you need a break, get up and walk around for a few minutes, but try not to telephone a friend or have something to eat.
    Test-taking Skills
    All your hard work will be for nothing if you are too nervous to take your test. Getting plenty of rest is very important. This means do not study all night before your test! It is a better idea to have a long-term study plan. Try to make a timetable for your study which lasts a few months.
    Exercise is a great way to reduce pressure. Doing some form of exercise every day will also improve your concentration. Eat healthy food too.
    When you arrive in the examination room, find your seat and sit down. Breathe slowly and deeply. Check the time on the clock during the test, but not too often. Above all, take no notice of everyone else and give the test paper your undivided attention.
    31. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
    A. You should study in a different place every day so that you don’t get bored.
    B. Your concentration will improve if you study and watch TV at the same time.
    C. Check the time during the exam at a certain time.
    D. Staying up all night is tiring, but you will learn a lot using this method.
    32. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?
    A. Your study desk or table.                               B. Your textbook.
    C. Your dictionary.                                                D. The equipment you need.
    33. What can be inferred from the passage?
    A. You shouldn’t look at everyone else during the test.
    B. You’ll have enough energy to deal with and concentrate on your study and exams better by eating healthy diet.
    C. You’ll concentrate more if there is nothing to distract you.
    D. If you need a break during study, you can walk around for a few minutes.
