While it is impossible to live completely free of stress，it is possible to prevent stress as well as
reduce its effect when it can’t be avoided．The US Department of Health and Human Services offers the following suggestions for ways to deal with stress．
◆Try physical activity
When you are nervous，angry or upset，try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical
activity．Running，walking，playing tennis，and working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try．
◆Take care of yourself
You should make every effort to eat well and get enough rest．If you easily get angry and can’t sleep well enough，or if you’re not eating properly，it will be more likely that you will fall into stressful situations．If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping，you should consult a doctor．
◆Make time for yourself
Schedule time for both work and entertainment．Don't forget，play can be just as important to your overall well-being as work．You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun．Go window-shopping or work on a hobby．Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy．
◆Make a list of things to do
Stress can result from disorganization and a feeling that “there’s so much to do，and not enough time”．Trying to take care of everything at once can be too much for you and as a result，you may not achieve anything．Instead，make a list of everything you have to do，then do one thing at a time，checking off each task as it is completed．Set out to do the most important task first．
49．Which of the following statements shows that you have fallen into stressful situations?
A．You can't sleep well all the time．            
B．You have a break after work．
C．You always feel happy and relaxed．          
D．You only do one thing at a time．
50．According to the passage，how do you make a list of things to do?
A．Try to take care of everything at once．      
B．Do one thing at a time．
C．Only do the most important thing．          
D．Have a break from your work．
51．Why does the writer write this passage?
A．To give opinion．                                     
B．To give suggestions．
C．To make a request．                                          
D．To ask for advice．
52．What is the best title for the passage?
A．How to Deal with Stress?                          
B．How to Make Time for Yourself?
C．How to Take Care of Yourself?              
D．How to Make a List of Things to Do?

第三部分阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
This week in our Foreign Student Series，we talk about getting an American education online．A student named Hendra has written to us from Indonesia asking about a good online university．Finding the right online program requires research．Talking to advisers and recruiters（招募者）can help．Keep in mind，though，that they might have a financial interest to direct you to certain programs．
The Council on Higher Education Accreditation（CHEA）recognizes a group in Washington，D．C．，to accredit（授权）schools that offer distance learning．One hundred and ten programs in the United States and six other countries are accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council．
We asked the executive director，Michael Lambert，for advice on choosing a distance learning program．He says the first thing is to go on the CHEA Web site to find if a school is accredited．The address is c-h-e-a dot o-r-g．Next，make sure the school offers what you need．Do you need a degree，or will a certificate or license be enough?
Another consideration is cost．Often the published price does not include all the costs --like books．Technology requirements can also add to the costs．Will you need to get new software or a high-speed Internet connection or even a new computer to take the classes you want?
Also，consider the level of interaction that an online program offers．You might never meet the teacher or other students in person．
Finally，and this is our own advice，find out what others say on the Internet for comments or news stories about schools that interest you．Just remember that what people say is not always fair or true．
56．This passage is probably from ________．
A．a magazine          B．a newspaper    
C．a text book       D．a radio program
57．This passage is mainly about ________．
A．how to get an American education online

A．The cost for books and technology requirements．
B．The cost for books and a new computer．
C．The cost for new software and a high-speed Internet connection．
D．The cost for technology requirements and even a classroom．
59．How can you find the information about schools accredited to offer distance learning easily?
A．Ask the members of CHEA．        B．Go on the website of chea.org．
C．Ask Michael Lambert for help．      D．Talk to advisers and recruiters．
60 According to Michael Lambert，________．
