15.Any car accident is frightening,but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water,with you trapped inside,is absolutely terrifying.(36)DHowever,most deaths result from panic,without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water.By adopting a brace(支撑) position,acting decisively and getting out fast,you can save yourself from a sinking vehicle.
Brace yourself for impact (撞击力).As soon as you're aware that you're going off the road and into a body of water,adopt a brace position.The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle,so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the"ten and two"position.
Undo your seatbelt.(37)FUnbuckle the children,starting with the oldest first.Forget the cell phone call.Your car isn't going to wait for you to make the call.
(38)ALeave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window.A car's electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water,so try the method of opening it electronically first.Many people don't think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking.
Break the window.If you aren't able to open the window,or it only opens halfway,you'll need to break it with an object or your foot.It may feel counter-intuitive (有悖常理的) to let water into the car.
(39)G
Escape when the car has equalized.If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced,you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival. (40)CWhile there is still air in the car,take slow,deep breaths and focus on what you're doing.

A.Open the window as soon as you hit the water.
B.Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.
C.It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually.
D.Such accidents are particularly dangerous to the risk of drowning.
E.In conclusion,if you know what to do in the water,you will be safe.
F.This is the first thing to attend to,yet it often gets forgotten in the panic.
G.But the sooner the window is open,the sooner you can escape directly through it.

12.Too often we accuse others of not listening,pretending that we ourselves are faultless,yet we know that many of the mistakes we make come about because we haven't listened carefully enough.We get things wrong because we haven't quite understood what someone meant when they were talking to us.Anyone who has ever taken the minutes of a long meeting will know how hard it's to remember--despite the benefit of notes--exactly what everyone said.But success depends on getting things right--and that means listening.
Listening isn't the same thing as hearing; it's not an effort actively.It demands attention and concentration.It may mean quizzing the speaker for additional information or for clarification-it's always better to ask than to continue regardless and get things wrong.However,if you allow your mind to wander onto something else,even for a few minutes,you'll miss what the speaker is saying-probably at the very moment when he/she is saying something critical(关键的).And not having heard,you won't knw you've missed anything until it's too late.
The most common bad habit we have is to start thinking of what we're going to say about the subject long before the other speaker has finished.We then stop listening.Even worse,this often adds rudeness to inattentiveness,as once you've decided what to say there's a fair chance you'll interrupt to say it.Good listeners don't interrupt.In fact it's often worth explaining the main idea of what you've just been told before continuing to make your own points.Nobody is offended(使恼怒) by this and it shows you have listened well.
Above all,be patient and accept that many people aren't good communicators.It's helpful to remember that the ways people move and position themselves while they're speaking can reveal(透露) much about what they're saying.Equally important,you should put yourself in the other person's place; it'll help you understand what they are getting at and form a response.But don't be too clever.Faced with a know-all,many people keep quiet because they see no point in continuing.

32.Which of the following can best replace the underlined part?A
A.what they imply
B.what they lack
C.what they attack
D.what they achieve
33.We know the following from the last paragraph EXCEPTD.
A.we should think more of others while having a talk.
B.a number of people are not good at communicating.
C.body gestures can tell a lot about what people are saying.
D.faced with a know-all,we should try our best to be clever.
34.What lesson can we learn from this passage?A
A.Listening inattentively may lead to your failure in talk.
B.We should blame ourselves for not understanding others.
C.Don't accuse others of not listening while talking with them.
D.Think carefully of what you'll say before the speaker finishes.
35.Which is the best title for this passage?B
A.Don't Be Too Clever
B.Be a Good Listener
C.Don't Miss Anything Critical
D.Think of the Speaker.

9.In his 1930 essay"Economic Possibilities for Our Grandchildren",John Keynes,a famous economist,wrote that human needs fall into two classes:absolute needs,which are independent of what others have,and relative needs,which make us feel superior to our fellows.He thought that although relative needs may indeed be insatiable (无止境的),this is not true of abolute needs.
Keynes was surely correct that only a small part of total spending is decided by the desire for superiority.He was greatly mistaken,however,in seeing this desire as the only source of insatiable demands.
Decisions to spend are also driven by ideas of quality which can influence the demands for almost all goods,including even basic goods like food.When a couple goes out for an anniversary dinner,for example,the thought of feeling superior to others probably never comes to them.Their goal is to share a special meal that stands out from other meals.
There are no obvious limits to the escalation of demand for quality.For example,Porsche,a famous car producer,has a model which was considered perhaps the best sport car on the market Priced at over $120,000,it handles perfectly well and has great speed acceleration.But in 2004,the producer introduced some changes which made the model slightly better in handling and acceleration.People who really care about cars find these small improvements exciting.To get them,however,they must pay almost four times the prices.
By placing the desire to be superior to others at the heart of his description of insatiable demands,Keynes actually reduced such demands.However,the desire for higher quality has no natural limits.

56.According to the passage,John Keynes Believed thatC.
A.desire is the root of both absolute and relative needs
B.absolute needs come fom our sense of superiority
C.relative needs alone lead to insatiable demands
D.absolute needs are stronger than relative needs
57.What does the word"escalation"paragraph 4probably mean?B
A.Understanding.
B.Incease.
C.Difference.
D.Expectation.
58.The author of the passage argues thatA.
A.absolute needs have no limits
B.demands for quality are not insatiable
C.human desires influence ideas of quality
D.relative needs decide most of our spending.

16.1A narrow escape from death can actually improve a person's view on life.That,at least,was one of the major findings of a study of some 200 people who come close to dying.Some had come through heart attack; some had fallen and come close to drowning or survived a terrible car wreck,yet despite the variety of circumstances,they reported strikingly similar reactions to their experiences.
Perhaps most surprisingly,many said they were less frightened of death now than they were before.Like most people,before their near-death incidents,many had thought death would be painful,the ultimate horror-but they didn't find it was.
Surviving a nearly fatal experience also gave many people a sense of invulnerability(不会受伤害)that made them feel special and even religious.Several believed they had been saved because they were to fulfill some special mission in the remainder of their lives.
Perhaps not so surprisingly,these survivors also reported an increased enthusiasm for life and a determination to enjoy life more.
A few of the survivors did report negative reactions to their experience.A dozen said they felt more vulnerable(脆弱的),and some even felt a sense of helplessness and a loss of control over their lives.Some had become phobic about activities associated with the accident; for example,several said they could no longer swim for fear of drowning.
Yet most of those interviewees said they came away with a strong sense of renewal or rebirth.In studying their reactions researchers have concluded that these people have come to understand the relationship of life and death better and more intimately than most of us,they have come to understand how life is actually defined by death.Life is given meaning by the fact that it will end someday.
 
51.From the passage,we can infer that the effects of near-death experiences on the survivors'lifeC.
A.differ due to the variety of circumstances         
B.vary greatly from person to person
C.are mostly positive in terms of their view on life   
D.are neither positive nor negative
52.Which effect of the near-death experience was the one that people had seldom expected?B
A.Some people became easier to get hurt.
B.Some people did not worry too much about death any more.
C.Some people paid more attention to the value of life.
D.Some people tended to be too pessimistic about death.
53.The positive effect of near-death experience was thatA.
A.some people loved life better because they realized its new meaning
B.some people felt a sense of helplessness
C.some people felt a loss of control over their lives
D.some people wanted to seek extreme happiness because they knew life was too limited
54.The word"phobic"(in paragraph 5)most probably meansD.
A.very careful B.very casual C.very curious D.very fearful
55.Which of the following can best express the idea of this passage?B
A.How to Improve a Person's View on Life.
B.The Effects of Near-Death Experience.
C.Is Death Really Horrible?
D.Near-Death Accidents and their Survivors.
