         When people talk about the civilization of ancient Babylon, the Hanging Gardens must be brought into
    their discussion. It was not until the reign (统治时期) of Naboplashar (625-605 BC) of the Neo-Babylonian
    Dynasty that the Babylonian civilization reached its top honor. The ancient city of Babylon must have been
    a wonder to travelers. Nebuchadnezzar II (604-562 BC), son of Naboplashar, then came to power and ruled
    for 43 years. It is he who is believed to have built the legendary Hanging Gardens. The Gardens were built
    to please his homesick wife. She found the dry, flat ground of Mesopotamia boring. In the place where she
    grew up, there was green grass and mountainous plains. The King wanted to recreate her homeland.
         A lot of people still believe in the existence of the Hanging Gardens, despite the fact that most descriptions
    of the Gardens come from Greek historians while Babylonian records remain silent on the Hanging Gardens.
    Even the historians who gave detailed descriptions of the Hanging Gardens never saw them.
         Modern historians argue that it was Alexander's soldiers that made up the story. When they reached the
    rich land and saw Babylon, they were impressed with the beautiful scenery. When they later returned to their
    poor homeland, they told about the amazing gardens in Babylon. And it was the imagination of poets and
    ancient historians that mixed up all these elements to produce one of the world's wonders.
         Some of the mysteries surrounding the Hanging Gardens were not solved until the twentieth century.
    Archaeologists are still struggling to gather enough evidence before reaching the final conclusions about the
    location of the Gardens, their water supplying system, and their true appearance. Some recent researchers
    even suggest that the Hanging Gardens were built by Senaherib who ruled 100 years earlier than
    Nebuchadnezzar II did.
    1. under 2. have 3. where 4. existed 5. rather
    6. returning 7. imagined 8. before 9. like 10. 462 BC

         Throw the bottles and boxes of drugs out of your house. A new theory suggests that medicine
    could be bad for your health, which should at least come as good news to people who cannot
    afford to buy expensive medicine. This new theory argues that healing is at our fingertips: we can
    be healthy by doing Yoga on a regular basis.
         Supporters of medical treatment argue that medicine should be trusted since it is effective and
    scientifically proven. They say that there is no need for spiritual methods such as Yoga. These
    waste our time, something which is quite precious in our material world. There is medicine that
    can kill our pain, xrays that show us our bones or MRI that scans our brain for tumors ( 肿瘤) ．
         We must admit that these methods are very effective in the examples that they provide. However,
    there are some "everyday complaints" such as back pains, headaches, insomnia, which are treated
    currently with medicine. When you have a headache, you take an Aspirin; when you cannot sleep,
    you take Xanax without thinking of the side effects of these. When you use these pills for a long
    period, you become addicted to them; you cannot sleep without them. We pay huge amounts of
    money and become addicted instead of getting better. How about a safer and more economical
    way of healing? When doing Yoga, you do not need anything except your energy so it is very
    economical. Its popularity has spread particularly throughout America and Western Europe. In
    quantum ( 量子) physics, energy is recognized as the fundamental substance ( 物质) which the
    universe consists of. Yoga depends on the energy within our bodies. It is a simple and effective
    way of restoring the energy flow. There are no side effects and it is scientifically explained.
         Opponents of alternative healing methods also claim that serious illnesses such as HIV/AIDS
    and cancer cannot be treated without drugs. They think so because these patients spend the rest
    of their lives in the hospital taking medicine. How can Yoga make these people healthy again? It is
    very unfortunate that these patients have to live in the hospital losing their hair because of chemotherapy ( 化疗), losing weight because of the side effects of the medicine they take. Actually, it is common
    knowledge that except when the cancer is recognized at an early stage, drugs also cannot treat AIDS
    or cancer. Most of the medicines these patients use are to ease their pain and their sufferings. Instead
    of drugs which are expensive and have many side effects, you can use your energy to overcome the
    hardships of life, find an emotional balance, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday
    worries. We should definitely start learning Yoga and avoid illnesses before it is too late.

         The farm economy of the United States has changed a lot in the last seventy years. In the 1930s,
    twenty-five percent of the nation's population lived on farms. Today less than one percent of Americans do.
         Farm incomes have changed over the years too. For example, in 1933, people living and working on
    farms had much less money to spend than other Americans. At that time, farm families had about one-third
    the income of non-farmers after all necessary expenses had been paid. By the late 1970s, however, that
    difference had almost disappeared. In 2004,farmers had their best year ever. The average farm family earned
    about eighty-one thousand dollars. That is more than the average American family, which earned about sixty
    thousand dollars.
         The Department of Labor measures the pay of industrial workers differently. It measures the average
    hourly and weekly pay for industrial workers. This is because factory workers are generally paid by the hour
    unlike farmers who earn income from their farm businesses. Generally, the average hourly pay for all industrial
    workers is about sixteen dollars. And the average weekly pay, about five hundred fifty dollars. Industrial and
    other services employ about eighty-six percent of the labor force.

         Host family accommodation, or living with host families, remains popular among language travel students
    for its advantages. These days, host families are trying to offer more in terms of quality, for they still have
    something to worry about.
         Host family accommodation is often seen as the number-one choice for its advantages in language study,
    cultural communication and cost of living. Staying alongside host families enables students to get enough
    practice for the short time of their studying so that their language acquisition is likely to become faster. Living
    in host families also has the advantage for students of being able to spend a lot of time communicating with
    their "host parents", and get to know the local way of life, people and culture. Another advantage is that host
    family accommodation can sometimes be the least expensive. It attracts students for it ensures them a family
    type of living at a low cost.
         The advantages, however, have not prevented host families form worrying. On one hand, some host
    families are losing their unique selling point. The problem is that the majority of hosts in big cites, now
    generally single and young, have less times available for students but the selling point for host family
    accommodation is communication practice. One the other hand, students' expectations have risen. They are
    becoming more demanding and asking for more than ever from their accommodation, as they come mainly
    from high socio-economic groups in their own countries.
         To get out of the difficult situation, host families are now making efforts to improve the quality of
    service. They are trying to making living conditions better, including broadband Internet service, private
    bathroom, and access to plenty of hot water for long showers. They are also providing students with
    structured family activities.
         It is believed that host family accommodation will keep the popularity vote with language travel students.

    请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
         We should not hesitate too much during the first half of our lives, while we should not regret at what
    we've done during the other half. We should seize every opportunity (机会) to find a way out in our lives,
    for it goes off quickly. We should say something urgent (紧迫的) slowly, something serious clearly,
    something small humorously and something unsure carefully. We should never say something that did not
    happen, something that we cannot do, something that does harm to others. Do not easily say something
    about others. We should follow our own heart and interest, and fulfill what we should do.
         Everyone is longing for a happy life, but owning wealth does not necessarily mean owning happiness.
    To truly reach happiness, we need to know how to get on with others. So we need to understand the
    core (核心) of happiness and achieve what we desire.
         We need to know and understand happiness before we finally get it. A smart man must know to do
    something good even though it may be small, and not to do something evil even though it may be tiny in
    everyday life. As long as we keep a kind heart and do everything legally, we can live a peaceful life. But
    if we keep an evil heart and do whatever we want, we are indeed digging a tomb for ourselves. A smart
    man knows to learn a lesson from his falls for he knows that every fall is a valuable experience leading to
    happiness in the future. He will not waste his time in criticizing (批评)others. Instead, he tends to spend
    more time seeking his own happiness. He knows to keep a heart of conscience (道德) and not to spread
    others' mistakes. He also knows to think before he leaps so that he will not feel regretful afterwards.
    Moreover, he knows to tolerate others, so he can naturally lead a happy life.
         Without happiness, one will feel terribly sorry, for he always insists that he has done the right thing all
    the time and that others often do wrong to him. He attributes (把……归于) every mistake to others or
    the environment instead of reflecting on himself, which keeps him farther and farther away from happiness.
         A well-known person once said, "Nobody intends to make mistakes. One makes mistakes because
    of his ignorance (无知)." Therefore, if someone makes mistake, we need to care about him, forgive him
    and enlighten (启发) him by setting a good example to him instead of losing temper (怒气) to him.
    Otherwise, we are also ignorant like him, for we also make a stupid mistake that leads us farther from
    happiness.
         In order to lead a happy life, we need to know more about others, about the society, about our culture
    and history. We should love our country, keep the law and realize our own responsibility (责任), and then
    we are sure to have a happy life.
