14．The parents have arranged for the girl to have piano lessons at thetraining （培训）centre．

13．It has been proved that eating vegetables inchildhood （童年） helps to protect you against serious illness in later life．

12．Someday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the Website you've visited，or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phonebills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits．
In fact，it's likely some of these things have already happened to you．Who would watch you without your permisson？It might be a spouse，a girlfriend，a marketing company，a boss，a cop or a criminal．Whoever it is，？they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen-the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked．
Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy，and that it's important to reveal yourself to friends，family and lovers in stages，at appropriate times．But few boundaries remain．The digital bread crumbs （碎屑） you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are，where you are and what you like．In some cases，a simple Google search can reveal what you think．Like it or not，increasingly   we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret．
The key question is：Does that matter？
For many Americans，the answer apparently is"No．
When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy，most say they are concerned about losing it．A survery found an overwhelming pessimism about privacy，with 60percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is"slipping away，and that bothers me．"
But people say one thing and do another．Only a tiny fraction of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy．Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths（收费站） to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements．And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards．Privacy economist A lessandro Acauisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon （优惠卷）．
But privacy does matter-at least sometimes．It's like health：When you have it，you don't notice it．Only when it's gone do you wish you'd done more to protect it．

57．What does the author mean by saying the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked？C
A．People tend to be more frank with each other in the information age．

C．People's personal information is easily accessed without their knowledge．
D．Criminals are easily caught on the spot with advanced technology．
58．What would psychologists advise on keeping good boundaries？A
A．There is always something you shouldn't reveal．
B．You should not always have good relationship with your friends and so on．
C．All friends should open their hearts to each other．
D．There should be fewer disputes and questions between friends．
59．Why does the author say"we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret"？D
A．Modern society has finally evolved into an open society．
B．Many search engines profit by revealing people's identities．
C．There are always people who are curious about others'affairs．
D．People leave traces around when using modern technology．

10．（71）F But by using a college admissions consultant （咨询员），you can greatly
increase your chances of getting accepted into the first college on your list．These consultants are people who are expert at getting people just like you into the college of their dreams．
（72）E They can make a difference in your college admission quest．
Help finding schools．Perhaps you don't know where you want to go or only have an unclear idea as to where you would like to go．Your consultant can give you many ideas as to which schools would be fit for you and then you can go from there．
Help with applications．（73）G They will be able to review your application before it is sent off to the college you are applying to and be able to tell you if there is anything that needs to be added or taken away．Imagine how terrible it would be to get refused by the college of your choice only because of some small mistakes．
Help with student loans （贷款）．It may be necessary for you to get student loans in your
college．（74）C Your consultant will know exactly where to look and can even help you determine what type of aid you can get．They can even give you some ideas of specific scholarships for you．
It is true that it costs money to hire a college admissions consultant．If they can provide you with ideas for your need，the money is good for the value．（75）A I think it is necessary to get into the school you want with the consultants'help．

A．After all，you are only going to go to college once．
B．You may be puzzled by so many kinds of applications．
C．But you may have no idea where to begin your search．
D．They know how to do with the scholarship at the college．
E．They know all the ins and outs （细节） of the college admissions．
F．Getting accepted into the college of your choice is sometimes a difficult thing．
G．They know exactly what schools do and don't want to see on applications．

9．Sport is not only physically challenging，but it can also be mentally challenging．Criticism from coaches，parents，and other teammates，as well as pressure to win can create an excessive amount of anxiety or stress for young athletes．Stress can be physical，emotional，or psychological，and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout．Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable．
The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself．The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place．Young athletes can，for example，learn how to cooperate with others，make friends，and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives．Coaches and parents should be aware，at all times，that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children．Youngsters may take their parents'and coaches'criticisms to heart and find flaws（缺陷）in themselves．
Coaches and parents should also be cautious that youth sport participation does not become work for children．The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons．In today's youth sport setting，young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport．Following a game，many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find fault with youngsters'performances．Positive reinforcement（正面强化）should be provided regardless of the outcome．Research indicates that positive reinforcement motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism．Again，criticism can create high levels of stress，which can lead to burnout．

72．An effective way to prevent the burnout of young athletes isC．
A．to make sports less competitive
B．to make sports more challenging
C．to reduce their mental stress

73．According to the passage sport is positive for young people in thatD．
A．it can help them learn more about society
B．it teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselves
C．it enables them to find flaws in themselves
D．it can provide them with valuable experience
74．Many coaches and parents are in the habit of criticizing young athletesA．
A．without realizing criticism may destroy their self-confidence
B．in order to make them remember life lessons
C．believing that criticism is beneficial for their early development
D．so as to put more pressure on them
75．The author's purpose in writing the passage isB．
A．to persuade athletes not to worry about criticism
B．to emphasize the importance of positive reinforcement to young athletes
C．to discuss the skill of combining criticism with encouragement
D．to teach young athletes how to avoid burnout．

8．The largest earthquake （magnitude 里氏 9.5）of the 20th century happened on May 22，1960off the coast of South Central Chile．
It generated（生成） one of the most destructive Pacific-wide tsunamis（海啸）．Near the generating area，both the earthquake and the tsunami were very much destructive，particularly in the coastal area from Concepcion to the south end of Isia Chiloe．The largest tsunami damage occurred at Isia Chiloe-the coastal area closest to the epicenter（震中）．Huge tsunami waves measuring as high as 25meters arrived within 10to 15minutes after the earthquake，killing at least two hundred people，sinking all the boats，and flooding half a kilometer inland．
There was large damage and loss of life at Concepcion，Chile's top industrial city．Near the city of Valdivia，the earthquake and following aftershocks generated landslides which killed 18people．At me port city of Valparaiso，a city of 200，000，many buildings collapsed．A total of 130，000houses were destroyed-one in every three in the earthquake zone and nearly 2，000，000people were left homeless．
Total damage losses，including to agriculture and to industry，were estimated to be over a half billion dollars．The total number of death related with both the tsunami and the earthquake was never found accurately for the region Estimates of deaths reached between 490to 5，7002with no distinction（差别） as to how many deaths were caused by the earthquake and how many were caused by the tsunami．However，it is believed that most of the deaths in Chile were caused by the tsunami．

68．Where did the largest tsunami damage occurred？B
A．Concepcion     B．Isia Chiloe       C．Valdivia      D．Valparaiso

B．The tsunami waves killed 200people and sank all boats．
C．The tsunami waves were very destructive．
D．The tsunami waves flooded half of the inland．
70．What is generally thought the main cause of deaths in Chiloe？B
A．landslides            B．the tsunami

6．People have wondered for a long time how their personalities and behaviors are formed．It is not easy to explain why one person is intelligent and another is not，or why one is cooperative and another is competitive．
Social scientists are，of course，extremely interested in these types of questions．They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behaviors．There are no clear answers yet，but two distinct schools of thought on the matter have developed．As one might expect，the two approaches are very different from one another，and there is a great deal of debate between proponents of each theory．The controversy is often referred to as"nature and nurture"．
Those who support the"nature"side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior patterns are largely determined by biological and genetic factors．That our environment has little，if anything，to do with our abilities，characteristics，and behavior is central to this theory．Taken to an extreme，this theory maintains that our behavior is predetermined to such a degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts（本能）．
Proponents of the"nurture"theory，or，as they are often called，behaviorists，claimed that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act．A behaviorist，B．F．Skinner，sees humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings．The behaviorists'view of the human being is quite mechanistic； they maintain that，like machines，humans'respond to environmental stimuli（刺激） as the basis of their behavior．
Socially and politically，the consequences of these two theories are far-reaching．In the US，for example，blacks often score below whites on standardized intelligence tests．This leads some"anature"proponents to conclude that blacks are genetically lower in status than whites．Behaviorists，on the contrary，say that the differences in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often robbed of many of the educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy，and that，as a result，they do not develop the same responses that whites do．
Either of these theories cannot yet fully explain human behavior．In fact，it is quite likely that the key to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremes．That the controversy will continue for a long time is certain．
67．This passage is mainly concerned withD．
A．relation between personality and behavior

B．To urge scientists to do more research in social science．
C．To give us a detailed explanation of human behavior．
D．To present an argument in the field of social science．

5．This is an open letter to the three people who stole my handbag from the department store I am employed as a shop assistant．
When you took my bag，I don't know what you thought you were going to get．With my wages，there's not much left on a Tuesday．I hope the￡5 was useful to you．I have informed the  social security office so you won't be able to cash the child benefit next week．I hope that won't leave you too short．But if you really need a couple of pounds，I suppose you could always cash one of the two checks left in my check book．Of course，I phoned the bank right away and the check-casing card is no longer valid，so it won't be much use to you．
Actually I don't mind about the money too much．We single parents who work to support our families understand only too well what it means to be short of cash．However，I don't suppose it went very far among the three of you．Sorry about that!
I wish you had left the bag behind and just taken the wallet and check book．There were all kinds of papers in it，and notes and things that I really need．I really think that was very inconsiderate of you．I mean，how would you like something like that to happen to you？
Well，perhaps the bag will turn up．It wasn't even an expensive one．just a plain，old brown leather shoulder bag．You probably dumped it in the nearest rubbish bin or threw it into the bushes．We've looked around，of course，but no one saw which way you went after you left the shop．
I'm not really angry with you．I know how the pressures of modern living can affect us，but I am sad at the loss of my personal things．I feel violated and helpless．The police were very icy，and they just shrugged（耸） their shoulders．"It happens all the time，"they told me．Some small comfort，I suppose．But I've lost just a little more faith in human nature．And as my young son said when I told him what had happened，"Why？Mummy，why us？"I couldn't answer that question．I wonder if you can．
60．In writing Paragraph 2，the writer wants toC．
A．describe the contents of the bag in detail．
