【题目】 Being forgiving to yourself and others can protect against stress and the harm it does to mental health, according to a new study in the Journal of Health Psychology.
Researchers looked at the effects of lifetime stress on a person’s mental health,and how more forgiving people got along compared with people who weren’t so forgiving.To do this, they asked 148 young adults to fill out questionnaires that assessed their levels of lifetime stress,their tendency to forgive and their mental and physical health.
No surprise,people with greater exposure to stress had worse mental and physical health.But the researchers also discovered that if people were highly forgiving of both themselves and others,that characteristic alone almost removed the connection between stress and mental illness.
“It’s almost entirely erased—it’s zero,”says study author Toussaint.“If you don’t have forgiving tendencies,you feel the immediate effects of stress in a severe way.You don’t have anything to cushion you against that stress.”
How a forgiving personality protects a person from the influence of severe stress is hard to determine.The researchers infer that people who are more forgiving may adopt better skills to deal with stress,or their reaction to major stressors(压力源)may be slow.
Though more research is needed to fully understand the benefits of being more forgiving,Toussaint believes“100%”that forgiveness can be learned.His own previous research has shown that saying a short prayer on forgiveness can help people take the edge off. “I think most people want to feel good and forgiveness offers you the opportunity to do that,”he says.
【1】The researchers got the effect of forgiving by_____.
A.analyzing questionnairesB.doing scientific experiment
C.writing research papersD.communicating with 148 adults
【2】What can we infer from the passage?
A.Forgiving tendencies can deal with all mental problems.
B.It remains unknown why forgiveness helps to reduce stress.
C.Toussaint’s study has fully discovered the benefits of being forgiving.
D.Saying a short prayer on forgiveness is the key to getting rid of stress.
【3】What does the underlined phrase “take the edge off’ in the last paragraph probably mean?
A.Look ahead.B.Become relaxed.
C.Make up their mind.D.Stick to their goals.
【4】What may be the best title for the passage?
A.A new study on physical health
B.Forgiving yourself makes you feel good
C.Forgiveness is good for mental health
D.Getting rid of stress is good for your health

【题目】 A home science experiment recently took the world by storm. Two teens from Toronto, in Canada, sent a Lego man rising above the Earth and captured their tiny astronaut’s trip on film.
Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad,both 17, used a weather balloon to launch their plastic lego model 16 miles above the Earth. This is inside a part of Earth’s atmosphere.
The two teens were inspired by a similar project performed by students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT). The MIT students had launched a weather balloon with a camera into near space and taken many unusual images of the Earth. Mathew and Asad then spend four months figuring out how to launch their own spacecraft into the space.
Travelling to space is expensive for NASA, but Mathew and Asad worked hard to keep their costs down. They bought much of their equipment used and even sewed the Lego man’s parachute by hand. In total, the project cost only$400.
“We had a lot of anxiety on launch day because there were high winds when we were going up,”Mathew told reporters. They had to pump extra helium(氦)into the balloon so that it would rise quickly and avoid being blown too far off course by the strong winds.
The toy astronaut’s journey lasted 97 minutes before the balloon broke and he fell back to Earth. Mathew and Asad then spent two weekends looking for their spacecraft. It had landed 76miles away from the launch site.
The student scientists are currently finishing up their final year of high school and applying for colleges. They are also looking into more do-it-yourself space projects.
“I guess the sky is not really the limit anymore,” Mathew told reporters. “We never knew we’d get this far. It’s been a lesson for us that hard work pays off.”
【1】By saying “took the world by storm” in the first paragraph, the writer meant the experiment______________.
A.destroyed the world
B.flooded the world
C.fascinated the world
D.managed the world
【2】Which of the following about the students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is right?
A.They were examples for Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad.
B.They helped Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad to achieve dream.
C.They launched weather balloon together with Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad.
D.They studied with Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad in the same school.
【3】How did Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad keep their costs down?
A.By sewing the weather balloon themselves.
B.By borrowing spacecraft from the MIT students.
C.By making their spacecraft by hand
D.By using second-hand equipment
【4】What problems did Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad have on launch day?
A.They ran out of helium
B.The wind was too strong
C.The balloon suddenly broke
D.Their spacecraft was blown away.

Dear Tom,
How is everything going with you? In your last e-mail you asked me to tell you something about Isaac Asimov. Here is something I know about him.
Isaac Asimov, an American scientist and a writer, was born on 2 January, 1920. Asimov’s talent for writing became obvious at the age eleven. He told a friend two chapter of a story he had written. The friend thought he was retelling a story from a book, what surprised Asimov and from that moment, he started to take himself serious as a writer. Asimov began having stories publish in science fiction magazines in 1939. Throughout her life, Asimov received many awards, both for his science fiction books and his science books. He died in 1992 as a result of a HIV infection that he has got from a blood transfusion nine years earlier .
That’s what I know about Isaac Asimov. I greatly hope the information is help to you in a way.
Yours,
Li Hua
