    Having trouble sticking to an exercise program?Research shows that dogs are actually nature's perfect personal trainers-loyal,hard-working,energetic and enthusiastic.Your friends may skip an exercise session because of appointments,extra chores or bad weather.1.

    Is dog walking really effective exercise?Many people are becoming interested in exercise to help lose excess weight.2.Dog owner-ship and obesity were evaluated in Seattle,Wash.,and Baltimore,Md.,in a study published in the journal Preventive Medicine in September 2008.Dog owners who reported walking their dogs were almost 25 percent less likely to be obese than people without dogs.

    What are the benefits of regular exercise?Dr.Joanna Kruk reviewed medical literature describing the health benefits of exercise.Her research showed that the risk of developing a number of serious health problems is reduced by physical activity and exercise.

    3.It's easy to forget about healthy walking plans,so set the stage for a successful program: Establish a walking schedule; plan to walk 30 minutes total each day.This might include a 10-minute neighborhood walk in the morning and a 20-minute romp at the dog park after work.Or maybe three 10-minule walks or one 30-minute walk fit in better with your day.

    If dog walking is "scheduled" each day,you'll feel more responsible for sticking with your program.4.Most importantly,daily walking your dog will keep it fit and give it an opportunity to utilize their senses while also engaging their mind.

    B.Track your progress.

    C.This will reinforce your good behavior.

    Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation（感觉）of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions—those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh.

    Psychologists have known that one person’s perception（感知）of another’s “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies’ conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlow’s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.

    Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.

    To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the study’s hypotheses（假设）, handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form: The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.

    “We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says Bargh.

    1.The author mentions Harlow’s experiment to show that ______.

    A. adults should develop social skills

    B. babies need warm physical contact

    C. caregivers should be healthy adults

    D. monkeys have social relationships

    2.In Bargh’s experiment, the students were asked to ______.

    A. evaluate someone’s personality

    B. write down their hypotheses

    C. fill out a personal information form

    D. hold coffee and cold drink alternatively

    3.We can infer from the passage that ______.

    A. abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences

    B. feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide

    C. physical temperature affects how we see others

    D. capable persons are often cold to others

    4.What would be the best title for the passage?

    A. Drinking for Better Social Relationships.

    B. Experiments of Personality Evaluation.

    C. Developing Better Drinking Habits.

    D. Physical Sensations and Emotions.

    Keeping pace with teachers is a fine way to study English. Teachers are experienced and their plans are systematic. But remember to work in a way that suits you. It's important to learn from past mistakes as well. Keep a notebook to make a record of the mistakes you make－it'll help you avoid making the same ones later.

    The time of life may be hard，but you're not alone. You may be busy studying，but you can show your care by calling your friends or sending short messages. Don't let your friendships die.

    It's as important to live well as it is to study well. Going to bed no later than 11：30 pm is vital. It puts you in the right mood for the next day. You needn't follow a special diet，but make sure you are eating nutritious meals each day.

    The person who plays well，studies well.Having a lot of schoolwork doesn't mean having to give up other activities. Playing basketball or having a talk with your classmates can relax yourself. Time out is not a waste of time but helps you study more efficiently.

    Besides taking the big exam，you have other choices for college. I took the independent enrollment exam held by Peking University and some other students even were preparing to study abroad. Pay attention to any relevant information you can find，whether it's from school，the news media or other sources.

    1.What should you do if you want to keep your friendship fresh?

    A. Have frequent talks with them. B. Always have lunch with them.

    C. Keep connection by some ways. D. Remain them at some distance.

    A. health B. friendship

    C. relaxation D. study

    3.Which one is the closest meaning to “Time out” in Paragraph 4?

    A. Sleep B. Pause

    C. Continuation D. Exercise

    4.The passage is probably written by a(n)________．

    A. editor B. parent

    1．For a sight of an evolving technology that promises to shake video gaming to its foundation，check out"Throw Trucks With Your Mind"．
    Unlike most video games，it doesn't rely solely on a mouse．Instead，its players also put on a headset that enables them to throw trucks or other virtual objects simply by thinking．
    And that's just for starters．Advocates of so-called neurogaming（交感神经游戏）say the concept in a few years will combine a wide variety of physiological factors，from a player's heart rate and hand gestures to pupil dilation（瞳孔扩张） and emotions．Moreover，they imagine many such games being developed to improve the health，brainpower and skills of those playing them．
    The electroencephalography（脑电波仪），or EEG，headset used to throw trucks and other objects onto enemies was made by San Jose，California．-based NeuroSky．It measures separate brainwave frequencies that reflect how focused the player is and how calm they are，according to Lat Ware of Emeryville，California．，who developed the game．The game，which can be purchased at www．throwtrucks．com，costs 25，or99with the headset．
    Ware，29，said it's possible to move a pear or other small virtual object if the player is calm，but not focused，or vice versa．But he said both mental states are essential to flatten an enemy with a huge truck，which takes considerable concentration．
    Although only a few neurogames have been introduced so far and their action tends to be fairly limited，the games are expected to become far more challenging-and multipurpose-as the software and related technology improves．
    One concept being explored is to develop games that adjust their action according to the player's changing emotions．These are measured by such factors as their facial expressions，eye movement and skin-conductance（皮肤导电） levels．Another approach is to make games that influence how the player thinks and feels．
    Consider Los Angeles-based Melon，which，like"Throw Trucks With Your Mind，"was recently launched via the online fundraising site Kickstarter．Melon officials say their first game--which challenges players to fold origami（折纸） with their mind，using NeuroSky's EEG headset--helps people"learn how to focus，relax and meditate better．"

    78．According to this article，what is the purpose of developing the new kind of gamesTo improvethehealth，brainpowerandskillsofthoseplayingthem．？
    79．The function of brainwave frequencies measured by EEG made by San Jose is toreflecthowfocusedtheplayerisandhowcalmtheyare．
    80．According to Ware，if you want to throw something such as a truck，you must beboth calm and focused．
    81．What is the new idea being studied to develop more challenging and multipurpose gamesDeveloping games adjusting players'action according to their changing emotions．？
    （Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN ELEVEN WORDS）
