Most of the time we   40   this concept in relation to how we treat others and that is good.  41__ here I want to talk about this concept in relation to ourselves. How does   42 we say affect us greatly? There is a simple principle here. Only say things that will create in your   43   emotions, thoughts, feelings, and finally, actions.

But at the very least I increase my   50   of performing better. Bad thoughts almost guarantee failure,    _ 51__ good thoughts increase success.
Some of us aren’t even   52   that we talk negatively to ourselves. Take   53   today to think about what you say to yourself. If you find yourself saying negative things, it is a time to change! Find some simple phrases that will help you   54  the day with more success.

Man-made Causes
Man-made causes probably do the most damage. There are many man-made causes.  21  is one of the biggest man-made problems. Pollution  22  in many shapes and sizes. Burning fossil fuels is one thing that causes pollution. Fossil(化石) fuels(燃料)are fuels made of organic matter such as coal, or oil. when fossil fuels are burned they  23  a green house gas called CO2. Also mining coal and oil allows methane to escape. How does it escape? Methane(甲烷)is  24  in the ground.  25  coal or oil is mined you have to dig up the earth a little. When you dig up the fossil fuels you dig up the methane as well.
Another major man-made  26  of Global Warming is population. More people  27  more food, and more methods of transportation, right? That means more methane because  28  will be more burning of fossil fuels, ­ 29  more agriculture. Now you’re probably thinking, “Wait a minute, you said agriculture is going to be damaged by Global Warming, but  30  you’re saying agriculture is going to help cause Global Warming?” Well, have you  31 been in a barn filled with animals and you smell something  32 ? You re  33  methane. Another source of methane is manure. Because more food is needed we have to raise food. Animals like cows are a source of food which means more manure and methane. Another problem  34  the increasing population is  35 . More people means more cars, and more cares means more pollution. Also, many people have more than one car.
Since CO2 contributes to global warming, the increase in population makes the problem worse because we breathe out CO2.  36 , the trees that change our CO2 to oxygen are being demolished because we’re using the land that we cut the trees down from as property  37 our homes and buildings. We are not replacing the trees(an important part of our ecosystem), so we are  38  taking  39  of our natural resources and giving nothing back in  40 .
21．A．Pollution  B．Damage  C．Fossil          D．Transportation
22．A．goes      B．comes     C．takes         D．moves
23．A．give off    B．look out  C．burn away     D．take in
24．A．originally  B．mostly    C．naturally      D．usually
25．A．Because    B．When     C．While          D．But

Ⅲ．Reading Comprehension
Section A
Some personal characteristics play an important role in the development of one’s intelligence．But people fail to realize the importance of training these factors in young people．
The so-called “non-intelligence factors” include one’s feelings, will, motivation, interests and habits．After a 30-year follow up study of 8,000 males, American psychologists50that the main cause of disparities in intelligence is not intelligence51      , but non-intelligence factors including the desire to learn, will power and self-confidence．
52people all know that one should have definite objectives, a strong will and good learning habits, quite a number of teachers and parents don’t pay much attention to      53     these factors．
Some parents are greatly worried when their children fail to do well in their studies．They blame either genetic factors, malnutrition（营养不良） or laziness, but they never take54consideration these non-intelligence factors．At the same time, some teachers don’t inquire into these, as reasons55students do poorly．They simply give them more courses and exercises, or56     criticize or laugh at them．After all, these students lose self-confidence．Some of them just feel defeated and57themselves up as hopeless．Others may go astray（堕落）because they are sick of learning．An investigation of more than 1,000 middle school students in Shanghai showed that 46．5 percent of them were58of learning, because of examinations, 36．4 percent lacked persistence, initiative and consciousness and 10．3 percent were sick of learning．
It is clear that the lack of cultivation of non-intelligence factors has been a main      59
to intelligence development in teenagers．It even causes an imbalance between physiological and 　60　 development among a few students．
If we don’t start now to61the cultivation of non-intelligence factors, it will not only affect the development of the intelligence of teenagers, but also affect the quality of a whole generation．Some experts have put forward62about how to cultivate students’ non-intelligence factors．
First, parents and teachers should63understand teenage psychology．On this basis, they can help them to pursue the objectives of learning，      64their interests and toughening their willpower．
50．A．came out  B．found out     C．made out     D．worked out

Competition for admission to the country’s top private schools has always been tough. This is spreading from Manhattan to the rest of the country. Precise 50 data on private schools are unavailable, but interviews with representatives of independent and religious schools all told the same 51: too many applicants, higher rejection rates. Surveys indicate that Americans’ No. 1 52 is education. 53 the long economic boom(繁荣) has given parents more income, many are turning to private schools, even at price tags of well over $10,000 a year. “We’re getting applicants from a broader area, 54, than we ever have in the past,” said Besty Haugh of the Latin School of Chicago, which experienced a 20 percent increase in 55 this year.
The problem is that while demand has increased, supply has not. “Every year, there are a few children who do not find places, but this year, for the first time that I know of, there are a(n) 56 number of children who don’t have places,” said Krents, who also heads a private-school admissions group in New York.
So what can parents do to give their 4-year-old a(n) 57? Schools know there is no simple way to pick a class when children are so young. Many schools give preference to boys or girls or alumni(校友) children. Some use lotteries. But most rely on a 58 of subjective and objective measures: tests that at best 59 developmental maturity and learning potential, interviews with parents and observation of applicants in classroom settings. They also want a diverse mix. Children may end up on a waiting list simply because their birthdays 60 at the wrong time year, or because too many applicants were boys.
The worst thing a parent can do is to pressure preschoolers to perform --- 61, by pushing them to read or do math exercises 62 they’re ready. Instead, the experts say, parents should take a breath and look for 63. Another year in preschool may be all that’s needed. Parents, meanwhile, may need a more 64 mind about relatively unknown private schools --- or about magnet（具有吸引力的）schools in the public system. There’s no sign of the private-school boom letting up.
