    This is love, hand in hand with you, old age to the old.
    I made a promise to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a(an)   31  husband and father. Totally loving. No ifs, ands or buts.
    The   32   had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The   33  was quoting Biblical passage about husbands and their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an   34  of will. A person can choose to love.” To myself, I had to   35  that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would   36 .
    And it did,   37  from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said, “That new yellow sweater looks   38  on you.”
    “Oh, Tom, you noticed,” she said,   39  and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled.   40  the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn   41  a walk on the beach. I started to refuse,   42 
    then I thought she wanted to be alone with me.” We walked on the beach while the   43  flew their kites.
    So it went. Two weeks of not calling the firm where I am a director. We visited the shell museum   44  I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that’s how the whole   45  passed. I made a new promise to keep on remembering to choose love.
    There was one thing that went   46  with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. On the last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn  47 me.    “What’s the matter?” I asked her.
    “Tom,” she said in a(an)   48  voice, “do you know something? I don’t….”
    “What do you mean?”
    “Well… that   49  I had several weeks ago … our doctor … did he tell you something about me? Am I dying?”
    It took a moment for it all to be understood. Then I burst into   50 .
    “No, honey,” I said, wrapping her in my arms. “You’re not dying; I’m just starting to live.”

    小题1:考查形容词。结合Totally loving. No ifs, ands or buts.可知作者要尽力做个充满爱心的丈夫和父亲。
    小题2:考查名词。 结合下文可知作者“要尽力做个充满爱心的丈夫和父亲”的想法是来自车载收音机中听到的一个谈话节目。
    小题3:考查名词。这里是指谈话节目的主持人引用了圣经中有关夫妻关系的文章。
    小题4:考查名词。根据下文 A person can choose to love可知“爱是出于自愿的行为”。
    小题5:考查动词。admit 承认。此处作者反思自身的缺点。
    小题6:考查动词。由首句 “I made a promise to myself...”可知，“所有这些情况都会改变”。
    小题7:考查副词。right用于加强语气，以便精确地表达时间关系或空间关系,如right after, right in the middle of等。right from the moment就在从那一刻。
    小题8:考查形容词。作者赞美妻子的sweater漂亮。
    小题9:考查形容词。结合Tom, you noticed可知丈夫的赞美出乎妻子的意料，听了之后感到“又惊又喜”。

    小题11:考查动词。suggest sth.提议；提出。对应下文的I started to refuse。本处不是“took a walk”，而是“……提出到海滩上去散散步。”
    小题12:考查连词。but表示转折。“我开始相拒绝，可想到她想和我单独在一起”。
    小题13:考查名词。我和妻子在散步，孩子们在放风筝。对应前文的father。
    小题14:考查连词。承接上文“虽然我usually hate museums, 但我还是去visit the shell museum”。
    小题15:考查名词。文章开头提到的vacation。
    小题16:考查形容词。前文讲的是作者一直按自己的承诺对待妻子和孩子，过得很愉快；46空后的however表转折，所以此处应是出问题了（go wrong）。
    小题17:考查动词短语。 结合上文的puzzled可知对于作者的变化，Evelyn有些迷惑，所以她盯着作者，想弄清楚是怎么回事。
    小题18:考查形容词。结合下文Evelyn以为自己要死了，自然是很难过。
    小题19:考查名词。结合doctor 可知几周前Evelyn做了次体检。
    小题20:考查名词。结合全文可知Evelyn 把作者的转变误以为自己快要死了，才对她这么好，弄明白妻子的意思后，作者哄然大笑。可结合Evelyn and I still laugh about it today判断答案。

    How often do you let other people's nonsense change your mood? Do you let a bad driver，impolite waiter，rude boss，or an insensitive employee  36 your day?
    One day I was in a taxi and we headed  37  the airport．We were driving in the  38 lane when suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us．My taxi driver slammed on his  39 ，slid sideways，and at the very last moment our car stopped and  40  the other car by just inches!The driver of the other car looked around and started  41  at us．
    My taxi driver just  42 and waved at the guy．And I mean he was really  43 ．So I asked，“Why did you just do that?This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!”This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call“The Law of the Garbage Truck”．
    He explained that many people are like garbage trucks．They run around full of   44 ，full of frustration，full of anger，and full of disappointment．As their garbage  45  up，they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on  46 ．Don't take it personally；Just smile, wave，wish them well，and move on．
    Believe me．You'll be  47 ．Don't take their garbage and  48 it to other people at work, at home，or on the streets．Life's too short to wake up in he morning with  49 . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what's   50  in your life，Roy Baumeister，a psychology researcher from Florida State University，found in his extensive research that you  5l bad things more ofter than good things in your life，you store the bad memories more easily，and you  52 them more frequently．
    Therefore，love the people who treat you right and ignore the ones who don't．Life is ten percent what you make it and  ninety percent how you  53  it!
    When you follow“The Law of the Garbage Truck”, you take back control of your life! You make room for the good by  54 go of the bad．Have a marvelous，garbage-free day! The seeds you plant today  55 the harvest you will reap tomorrow．

    Being less than perfectly well-dressed in a business setting can result in a feeling of discomfort. And the sad truth is that “clothing mismatches” on the job can ruin the day of the person who is wearing the inappropriate attire(着装)—and the people with whom he or she works.
    Offices vary when it comes to dress codes. Some businesses have very strict standards for office attire, while others maintain a more relaxed attitude. However, it is always important to remember that no matter what your company’s attitude is, you are working in a business environment and you should dress properly. Certain items may be more appropriate for evening wear than for a business meeting, just as shorts and a T-shirt are better suited for the beach than for an office environment. Your attire should reflect both your environment and your position. A senior president has a different image to maintain than that of a secretary. Like it or not, you will be judged by your appearance.
    This is never more apparent than on “dress-down days”, when what you wear can say more about you than any business suit ever could. In fact, people will pay more attention to what you wear on dress-down days than on “business professional ” days. Thus, when dressing in “business casual” clothes, try to put some good taste into your choices, recognize that the “real” definition of business casual is to dress just one notch(等级) down from what you would normally wear on business-professional attire days.
    Remember, there are borders between your career and our social life. You should dress one way for play and another way when you mean business. Always ask yourself where you are going and how other people will be dressed when you get there. Is the final destination the opera, the beach, or the office? Dress properly and you will discover the truth in the principle that clothes make the man—and the woman. When you’re in doubt, it’s safe to be on the side of dressing slightly more traditionally than the situation demands.
    小题1:What is the passage mainly about?
    A．How to dress properly in a business setting.
    B．How to choose appropriate attire.
    C．Appropriate attire will make a big difference
    D．Improper dress will make a person uncomfortable.
    小题2:Which statement best describes “dress-down days”?
    A．You can wear whatever you like.
    B．People are usually more careful about dressing.
    C．We can’t judge a person’s taste by his clothes.
    D．People’s clothes don’t receive much attention.
    小题3:Which of the following is NOT the rule offered in the passage about business dress?
    A．Dress a bit traditionally if you are not sure about proper dress for an occasion.
    B．Think about how others will dress if invited to a dinner.
    C．For a business meeting and a concert, you should dress differently.
    D．Ask others for advice when you are not sure about what to dress.

    Jean's father was a farm plane pilot in the little farming community in Northern California where she was raised, and _36_Jean was totallyattracted by airplanes and flying.
    In her senior year of high school, her English teacher was Mrs. Dorothy Slaton. Mrs. Slaton was a _37_, demanding teacher with high standards and a low _38_ for excuses. She refused to treat her students like _39_, instead expecting them to behave like the _40_ adults they would have to be to succeed in the real world after graduation. Jean was _41_ of her at first but grew to respect her firmness and fairness gradually.
    One day Mrs. Slaton gave the class a written _42_. "What do you think you’ll be doing 10 years from now?” Jean’s dream was to be a pilot like her father, but as the years went by, she had been beaten down by the _43_ and negative words she got whenever she talked about her career, so she unwillingly gave it up and wrote something else. Mrs. Slaton collected the papers and nothing more was said. Two weekslater, the teacher handed back the assignments, _44_ the students to face it down on the desk, and asked this question: "If you had enough finances and unlimited _45_, what would you do? Please write it on the _46_ of your previous assignment paper.”
    When the students stopped writing, the teacher asked, "How many of you wrote the same thing on _47_ sides of the paper?" Not one hand went up.
    The next thing that Mrs. Slaton said changed the course of Jean’s life. The teacher leaned forward _48_ her desk and said, "I have a little secret for you all. You do have _49_ abilities and talents. You do have access to the finest schools, and you can arrange plenty of finances if you want something _50_ enough. This is it! When you leave school, _51_ you don’t go for your dreams, no one will do it for you. You can have _52_ you want if you want it enough.”
    What her teacher said touched Jean so much! In the following years, she tried her best to realize her dream of becoming a pilot. Although it didn’t happen _53_, she finally became one of the first three female pilot trainees ever _54_ by United Airlines. Today, Jean Harper is a Boeing 737 captain.
    It was the power of one well-placed _55_ word that gave that uncertain young girl the strength and faith to pursue her dream.

    Laws to stop tigers, camels, zebras and snakes being used as performing animals in circuses have been announced by the government.
    The environment minister, Jim Paice, hoped the laws would be brought in before the end of the parliament in 2015, which is the main law-making institution of the UK. At present between 35 and 50 wild animals are thought to be used by circuses in England and Defra offered to help find new homes for the retired performers.
    The announcement follows a campaign by animal charity organization for the ban (禁令), which became worse when a video appeared last year of a circus elephant being beaten by a worker. Campaigners were angry when Paice previously announced tougher licensing instead.
    Circus Mondao, whose website shows zebra and camels, said it would probably challenge the suggested ban. The circus is a member of the European Circus Association, which previously challenged Austria's ban, saying there was no scientific evidence (证据) that the animals were harmed by the travelling or conditions. On its website, Mondao says that when it travels animals are the last to be loaded and the first to be unloaded; they are moved to tents within an hour of arriving, and are usually moved 20-50 miles.
    Animal charities welcomed the move, but called for ministers to speed up the laws. Asked why circuses would be banned from keeping wild animals but not domestic animals such as horses, a Defra spokesman said a key difference was that domesticated animals were more used to conditions such as travelling. "Wild animals aren't domesticated: we feel it's not right ethically (伦理上) for wild animals to perform," he said.
    小题1:What is the proper order of the following events ?
    a. Tougher licensing was announced by the environment minister.
    b. A campaign for a ban was launched by an animal charity.
    c. Laws were announced by the government.
    d. The suggested ban was challenged by Circus Mondao.
    A．b, d, c, aB．c, b, a, dC．b, a, c, dD．c, a, d, b
    小题2:According to the text, which of the following is TRUE?
    A．Retired performers are taken good care of in their new homes.
    B．The environment minister expected to introduce the law during the present parliament.
    C．Austria’s ban has been seriously challenged by all the European circuses.
    D．Animal charities were not satisfied with the suggested laws at all.
    小题3:“Domestic animals ” are probably      .
    A．animals that provide meat for people
    B．animals that are introduced from other countries
    C．animals that are well trained by a circus
    D．animals that live on farm or in people’s home

    Every summer, no matter how urgent work schedule is, I take off one day exclusively for my
    son. We call it dad-son day. This year our third stop was the amusement panic, where we discovered
    that he was tall enough to ride one of the fastest roller coasters (过山车)in the world. We experienced through face-stretching turns and circles for ninety seconds. Then, as we stepped off the ride, in a calm voice, he remarked that it was not as exciting as other rides he’d been on. As I listened, I began to sense something seriously out of balance.
    Throughout the season, I noticed similar events all around me. Parents found it hard to find new stimulations for cold kids. Surrounded by ever-greater stimulation, their young feces were looking disappointed and bored
    Facing their children’s complaints of "nothing to do", parents were spending large numbers of dollars for various forms of entertainment In many cases the money seemed to do little more than buy relief from the terrible complaint of their bored children. This set me thinking the obvious question: "How can it be so hard for kids to find something to do when there’s been such a range of stimulating entertainment available to them?"
    What really worries me is the strength of the stimulation. I watch my little daughter’s &ce as she absorbs bloody special effects in movies.
    Why do children facing such excitement seem starved for more? Thai was, I realized, the point I discovered during my own adolescence that what creates excitement is not going fast, but going faster. Excitement has less to do with speed than changes in speed.
    I am concerned about the increasing effect of years at these levels of feverish activity. It is no mystery to me why many teenagers appear uninterested and burned out, with a "been there, done that" air of indifference toward much of life. As increasing numbers of friends’ children are advised to take medicine to deal with inattentiveness at school or anti-depressants (抗抑郁药)to help with the loss of interest and joy in their lives—I question the role of kids’ boredom in some of the diagnoses (处方).
    My own work is focused on the chemical imbalances and biological factors related to behavioral and emotional disorders. These are complex problems. Yet I’ve been reflecting more and more on how lie pace of life and the strength of stimulation may be contributing to the rising rates of psychological problems among children and adolescents in our society.
