    You wake up in the morning, the day is beautiful and the plans for the day are what you have been looking forward to for a long time. Then the telephone rings, you say hello, and the drama starts. The person on tbe other end has a depressing tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to. Are you still in a wonderful mood? Impossible!
    Communieating with negative people can wash out your happiness. It may not change what you think, but communicating long enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time.
    Life brings ups and downs, but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer. They only feel glad when they make others feel bad. No wonder they can hardly win others' pity or respect.
    When you communicate with positive people, your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted. When the knife of a negative person is put in you, you have the heavy feeling that, all in all, brings you down.
    Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people. This could be a co-worker, or a relative. In this case, say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to the negative person, but this is to lower you to that same negative level and they won't feel ashamed of themselves about that.
    Negativity often affects happiness without even being realized. The negative words of others at the start of the day can be attached to you throughout the rest of your day, which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness. Life is too short to feel negative. Stay positive and avoid negativity as much as possible.

    In high school, you’re able to join more clubs, play more sports, and take part in more  46 ,and at the same time make new friends with kids with the same  47 as you. Also, these activities can give you a  48 to learn something that you might not have had the opportunity to learn in  49 .
    High school is different  50 everyone, but there’s one thing that’s  51 .You’re going to have just as much fun here as you  52 before. But having fun isn’t enough though!

    Douglas Grace talks about his ideal city of the future.
    I see the city of the future in three zones——inner， middle and outer. In the inner zone there will be no private cars. Public transport will be free and there will only be ambulances， fire engines， taxis and police cars. This inner zone will be the residential（住宅的） and recreational（娱乐的） area of the city. People will live there and go out to enjoy themselves——to cinemas and restaurants. There will be parks and open spaces， trees and lakes， schools and universities. This way， when people are at home， they can go out easily and safely.
    Just outside the inner zone there will be big car parks for all private cars.
    The banks and most of the shops and hospitals will be in the middle zone. These are things that people don’t need every day.
    All the factories and offices will be in the outer zone. People will travel out of the center to work， and back to the center in the evenings. The inner zone will be cleaner and better to live in and there will be more space for industry on the outside.

    Parents are often amazed at how fast their child grows and develops. New research has determined that the ability to quantify may develop much sooner than most parents realize.
    Kristy vanMarle, professor of the University of Missouri, has determined that contrary to what previous studies have shown, infants（婴儿）are able to quantify substances（物质）—like sand or water—as early as 10 months. As long as the difference between the two substances is large enough, infants will choose the larger amount, especially when it comes to food.
    With the assistance of her team researchers, vanMarle tested the quantifying skills of babies by presenting them with two cups: one containing a small amount of food, and one containing a larger amount. Consistently, the babies chose the larger amount.
    “Several studies throughout the last 15 years have shown that infants are very good at telling how many objects they see; however, infants don’t seem to count things like water or sand,” vanMarle said. “What we’re saying is that they can quantify substances; it’s just much harder. The infants can see how much food goes into each cup and compare that in their memories. They decide which amount is larger, and they almost always select the larger one.”
    This information further refutes（驳斥）the long-held idea that babies “know nothing of the world,” vanMarle said.
    “Since psychologists have begun studying infants with sensitive measures, we’ve discovered a lot of early abilities. I think for parents, it should be exciting to know that there’s somebody in there that has some fundamental and basic knowledge of the world, and that knowledge is guiding their development,” vanMarle said.
    In the future, vanMarle says this kind of study could be linked to a child’s progress in math-related skills, although programs marketed to increase those abilities, such as “Baby Einstein,” still have mixed reviews when it comes to academic study.
    小题1:The quantifying ability refers to the ability to     .
    A．choose between different substances
    B．get much knowledge of the world
    C．describe the quantity of something
    D．obtain math-related skills
    小题2: What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 4?
    A．The process of doing research.
    B．The scientific findings.
    C．The final choice of infants.]
    D．The observation of infants’ behavior.
    小题3:Babies choose the larger amount of food     .
    A．by saying numbersB．with the help of parents
    C．on personal preferenceD．through their natural abilities
    小题4:We can learn from the text that     .
    A．some parents don’t care about their kids
    B．people used to think the world is known to babies
    C．little research has been done on infants
    D．scholars disagree on baby-training programs
    小题5: What’s the best title of the text?
    A．Breakthrough in Baby Studies
    B．Amazing Baby-training Ideas

    In much society, there is often greater acceptance of light skin than dark skin; Light skin may be seen as a mark of beauty, intelligence and success. These beliefs can lead to social pressures even within the same group, if some members are darker than others.
    The result is that skin lightening has become very common across Africa, Asia and other areas of the world and more people with dark skin are using skin-lighting products, even if it means they may face health risks. They believe that having whiter skin will improve the quality of their lives. Many people think they will have a better family. Or they want to look like what their society generally considers beautiful.
    Some beauty care（美容） products and soaps contain chemicals that make skin lighter. However, some of the chemicals are extremely dangerous. The chemicals in the products block and break down the natural barrier(障碍) to protect against sunlight. Then the skin can become thick and discolored. Usually the person will use more of the product in an effort to correct the problem, which just makes things even worse. Doctor Ly says some chemicals are so dangerous that they may lead to blackened fingernails, infections(感染) and serious skin damage.
    And these are not the only problems. Experts say some people who change their skin color suffer emotional damage. They feel regretful and sad. They feel that instead of risking their health, they should have learned to live and accept their skin color as it was.
    小题1: What’s the result of the wrong understanding of darker skin?
    A．Many people with dark skin try to make their skin whiter.
    B．Many people with whiter skin live a better life than others.
    C．People with darker skin try to marry people with light skin.
    D．People with darker skin try to protect themselves against social pressures.

    A．some medical effects that skin-lightening products have brought about
    B．the mental damage that skin-lightening products have caused
    C．the physical damage that skin-lightening products have caused
    D．the causes why skin-lightening products can make skin whiter
    小题3: Why are chemicals in beauty care products dangerous?
    A. They can damage the skin’s color producing progress.
    B. They can control people’s emotions and feelings.
    C. They can make the fingernails and skin black.
    D. They make more people decide to change their skin colors.

    There seems never to have been a civilization without toys, but when and how they developed is unknown. They probably came about just to give children something to do .
    In the ancient world , as is today ,most boys played with some kinds of toys and most girls with another .In societies where social roles are rigidly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls are being prepared, even in play , to step into the roles and responsibilities of the adult world .
    What is remarkable about the history of toys is not so much how they changed over the centuries but how much they have remained the same . The changes have been mostly in terms of craftsmanship ,mechanics, and technology . It is the universality of toys with regard to their development in all parts of the world and their persistence to the present that is amazing .In Egypt ,America ,China ,Japan and among the Arctic (北极的)people, generally the same kinds of toys appeared. Variations depended on local customs and way of life because toys imitate their surrounding. Nearly every civilization had dolls, little weapons, toy soldiers, tiny animals and vehicles.
    Because toys can be generally regarded as a kind of art form, they have not been subject to technological leaps that characterize inventions for adult use .The progress from the wheel to the cart to the automobile is a direct line of ways up. The progress from a rattle (拔浪鼓) used by a baby in 3000BCto one used by an infant today , however , is not characterized by inventiveness. Each rattle is the product of the artistic tastes of the times and subject to the limitations of available materials.
    小题1:The reason why the toys most boys play with are different from those that girls play with is that       .
    A．their social roles are rigidly determined
    B．they like challenging activities
    C．most boys would like to follow their fathers’ professions
    D．boys like to play with their fathers while girls with their mothers.
    小题2:One aspect of “the universality of toys ”lies in the fact that          .
    A．the basic characteristics of toys are the same all over the world
    B．technological advances have greatly improved the durability of toys
    C．the exploration of the universe has led to the creation of new kinds of toys
    D．the improvement of craftsmanship in making toys depends on the efforts of universities
    小题3:Which of the following is the author’s view on the historical development of toys?
    A．Toys are playing an increasingly important role in shaping a child’s character.
    B．The toy industry has witnessed great leaps in technology in recent years.
    C．The craftsmanship in toy-making has remained essentially unchanged.

     The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666. In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together. One hundred thousand people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives.
    The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King's baker(面包师) in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window in the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery (面包房) into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.
    By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Paul's and the Guildhall along them.
    Samuel Peyps, the famous writer, wrote about the fire. People threw their things into the river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat.
    The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out.
    After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect (建筑师), wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone, In fact, the streets are still narrow, but he did build more than fifty churches, among them the new St Paul's.
    The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of the past.
    小题1:It seems that the writer of the text was most sorry for the fact that______.
    A．some people lost their lives
    B．the birds in the sky were killed by the fire
    C．many famous buildings were destroyed
    D．the King's bakery was burned down
    小题2: Why did the writer cite (引用) Samuel Pepys?
    A．Because Pepys was among those putting out the fire.
    B．Because Pepys also wrote about the fire.
    C．To show that poor people suffered most.
    D．To give the reader a clearer picture of the fire.
    小题3: How was the fire put out according to the text?
    A．The King and his soldiers came to help.
    B．All the wooden houses in the city were destroyed.
    C．People managed to get enough water from the river.
    D．Houses standing in the direction of the fire were pulled down.
    小题4: Which of the following were reasons for the rapid spread of the big fire?______.
    (a) There was a strong wind.                         (b) The streets were very narrow. 
    (c) Many houses were made of wood.           (d) There was not enough water in the city.     
    (e) people did not discover the fire earlier.
    A. (a), (b)      B. (a), (b), (C)     C. (a), (b), (d)       D. (b), (c) (e)

    What’s your idea of a good time? What about dancing in a rainy field with one hundred and fifty thousand other people while a famous rock band plays on a stage so far away that the performers look like ants?
    It may sound strange but that is what many hundreds of thousands of young people in the UK do every summer. Why? Because summer is the time for outdoor music festivals.
    Held on a farm, the Glastonbury Festival is the most well-known and popular festival in the UK. It began in 1970 and the first festival was attended by one thousand five hundred people each paying an admission price of ￡1 — the ticket included free milk from the farm.
    Since then the Glastonbury Festival has gone from strength to strength — in 2004 one hundred and fifty thousand fans attended, paying ￡112 each for a ticket to the three-day event. Tickets for the event sold out within three hours. Performers
    included superstars, such as Paul McCartney and James Brown, as well as new talent, like Franz Ferdinand and Joss Stone.
    Although many summer festivals are run on a profit —making basis, Glastonbury is a charity event, donating millions of pounds to local and international charities.
    Glastonbury is not unique in using live music to raise money to fight global poverty (贫穷). In July of this year, the Live 8 concerts were held simultaneously (同时) in London, Paris, Rome and Berlin. Superstars such as Madonna, Sir Elton John and Stevie Wonder performed in order to highlight (强调) international poverty and debt.
    小题1:What does the author mean by saying “the Glastonbury Festival has gone from strength to strength”?
    A．The festival has achieved growing success.
    B．Great efforts have been made to hold the festival.
    C．The festival has brought in a large amount of money.
    D．There have been thousands of fans attending the festival.
    小题2:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．The Glastonbury Festival is run on a profit-making basis.
    B．Tickets for the 2004 Glastonbury Festival were in great demand despite the high price.
    C．Both James Brown and Joss Stone were born in poor families.
    D．In the 1970 Glastonbury Festival, one could have lunch on the farm for free.
    小题3: We can learn from the last paragraph that _____.
    A．the Glastonbury Festival is not so popular as the Live 8 concerts
    B．the Live 8 concerts are held every year in London
    C．London, Paris, Rome and Berlin are famous for outdoor music festivals
    D．some superstars are concerned about global poverty
    小题4:What is the best title for the passage?
    A．How to have a good time
    B．Charity events around the world
    C．The Glastonbury Festival
    D．Superstars’ performances in charity events
