    When you’re lying on the white sands of the Mexican Riviera, the stresses(压力) of the world seem a million miles away. Hey, stop! This is no vacation-you have to finish something!

    Here lies the problem for travel writer and tood critic(评论家),Edie Jarolim “I always loved traveling and always liked to eat, but it never occurred to me that I could make money doing both of those things,” Jarolim said.

    Science can't explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.

         Any owner will tall you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (紧张) levels and blood pressure in people - half of them pet owners –while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did

    It best .Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned

    Most quickly to baseline heart rates .With pets in the room ,people also made fewer math mistakes

    Than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more released (放松)around

    Pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets don’t judge.

    A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwesterm Memorial Hospital spent a

    Year studying 36 fat people and were put on a diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of

    56 fat people without pets were put on a diet program. On average，people lost about 11 pounds，

    Or 5% of their body weight .Their dogs did even better，losing an average of 12 pounds，more then

    15%of their body weight .Dog owners didn’t lose any more weight than those without dogs but ,say

    Researchers，got more exercise overall –mostly with their dogs –and found it worth doing.

    67．What does the text mainly discuss?

    A．What pets bring to their owners

    B．How pets help people calm down

    C．people’s opinions of keeping pets

    D．Pet’s value in medical research

    68．We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well if

    ____________

    A．he has a pet companion

    B．he has  less stress of  work

    C．he often dose mental arithmetic

    D．he is taken care of by his family

    69．According to Allen, why did the people do better with pets around when facing stressful tasks?

        A．They have lower blood pressure.

        B．They become more patient.

        C．They are less nervous.

        D．They are in higher spirits.

    70．The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports that

        A．people with dogs did more exercise

        B．dogs lost the same weight as people did

        C．dogs liked exercise much more than people did

     (10·全国Ⅱ E篇)

    How words came into being is unknown.All we assume is that some early men invented cortain sounds,in one way or another,to express thoughts and feelings,actions and things,so that they could talk with each other.Later they agreed upon certain signs,called letters,which could be put together to show those sounds,and which could be written down.Those sounds,whether spoken or written in letters,are called words.

    The power of words,then,lies in their associations-the things they bring up to our minds.Words become filled with meaning for us by experience;and the longer we live,the more certain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of our past;and the more we read and learn,the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.

    Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings.This clever use of words is what we call literary style.Above all,the real poet is a master of words.He can express his meaning in words which sing like music,and which by their position and association can move men to tears.We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use then correctly,or they will make our speech silly and common.

    58.We learn from the text that language might have begun with(    )

    A．expressions    B．actions    C．signs    D．sounds

    59.What is mainly discussed in Faragraph 2?

    A．The ……of new words      B．The importance of old words

    C．The relation of human experience with words  

    D．The gradual change and development of words

    60.In the last paragraph,what does the anthor suggest that we should do?

    A．Use words skilfully    B．Make musical speeches  

    C．Learn poems by heart   D．Associate with listeners
