    When I was small and my grandmother died, I couldn’t understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.

    So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too, does crying.

    Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional(情感的)health, and crying seems to work weft. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.

    Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don' t even know we' re very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.

    Just as crying can be healthy, not crying -- holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering -- can be bad for physical(身体的) health. Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high good pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don't fight it. It's a natural -- and healthy -- emotional response(反应).

    1.Why didn' t the author cry when her grandmother died?

    A. Because her father did not want her to feel too sad.

    B. Because she did not love her grandmother.

    C. Because she was too shy to cry at that time.

    D. The author doesn' t give the explanation.

    2.It can be inferred from the text that________.

    A. there are two ways to keep healthy

    B. crying does more good to health than laughing

    C. crying and laughing play the same roles

    D. emotional health has a dose relationship to physical health

    3.According to the author, which of the following statements is true?

    A. Crying is the best way to get help from others.

    B. Fighting back tears may cause some health problems.

    C. We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry.

    D. We must cry if we want to reduce pressure.

    4.What might he the most suitable title for the text?

    A. Power of Tears                           B. How to Keep Healthy

    It’s easy to observe an athlete like Tiger Woods and feel like he’s from another planet. He has won 14 major tournament(锦标赛) titles and about $122 million in prize money and ads. He also has a happy family. It seems that he is too perfect to be one of us. But Woods has more in common with you than you might think.

    Woods’ parents — particularly his father — set high expectations for him when he was a child. Before Earl Woods’ death in 2006, he told Golf magazine, “My purpose in raising Tiger was not to raise a golfer. I wanted to raise a good person.”

    By age two, Woods was already swinging(挥舞) a golf club. But once he entered school, Woods’ father was careful to send the message that school work came first. Woods wasn’t allowed to practice until his homework was done.

    When Woods finally reached the professional tour, his father continued to expect a lot of him. “Tiger will do more than any other man in history to change the course of human. The world is just getting a taste of his power,” he said in 1996. Clearly, Earl Woods had great expectations of his son.

    In this way, Tiger Woods is actually like a lot of us. Many of us feel a similar pressure to make our parents proud. When this happens, it’s easy to let that pressure overwhelm(压倒) us.

    In a perfect world, we would all grow up to be Tiger Woods-like successes in our own fields. But that isn’t possible. There are many things that we can’t control in this life, despite our best efforts.

    There is, however, one thing that we can do: we can try to be a “good person”, as Earl Woods asked his son to do.

    46. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the first paragraph?

    A. The number of tournament titles Tiger Woods has won.

    B. The family members of Tiger Woods.

    C. The money Tiger Woods has made in prize money and ads.

    D. The impression that Tiger Woods leaves on us.

    47. According to the passage, which of the following statements about Tiger Woods is TRUE?

    A. Tiger Woods is too perfect to be one of us.

    B. Tiger Woods wasn’t allowed to play golf after class.

    C. Tiger Woods did very well in golf as a child.

    D. Tiger Woods didn’t like playing golf when he was a child.

    48. We can learn from the passage that Tiger Woods is under pressure to ____ just like many of us.

    A. get high marks in the exam              B. make his parents proud

    C. change the course of human             D. try to be a good person

    49. We can infer from the passage that ______.

    A. Tiger Woods has a happy family

    B. Tiger Woods’ mother didn’t set high expectations for him

    C. Tiger Woods has changed the course of human

    D. Tiger Woods’ father plays an important role on his road to success

    50. The author may agree all the following statements EXCEPT that ______.

    A. it is possible for us all to grow up to be Tiger Woods-like successes

    B. Earl Woods had great expectations of his son

    C. Tiger Woods has more in common with us than we might think

    D. we can try to be a “good person”

          One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool.He was no bigger than I was, so I
    thought him a fair game.Coming secretly behind, I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it would

         My wife Julie and I were out on the road that runs around where we live. Two dog walkers
    passed by and we heard one of them say, "Never seen that dog around here before."
         We looked down the hill and saw an old black dog stumbling(蹒跚) painfully up the hill. We
    bent down, talked gently to the dog and patted it. I checked and there was a collar. There was a
    phone number on the collar, but no one answered.
         The dog was painfully thin. It didn't have many teeth left and, well, it just seemed done.
    Julie ran home to get some of our dog's food while I tried to encourage the dog to come along with
    me. Julie got home and back again when I was only half way there. So, we sat down on the sidewalk
    while our new friend made short work of the food.
         Eventually we got her home. We gave her a blanket, more food, kept her warm and wondered
    what to do next.
         After trying for many times we got a response from the number. A lady came around with a bunch
    of flowers for us. She explained that Tara had been her father's dog. She was very old and should
    probably be put to sleep, but the lady just couldn't bring herself to do it. So, Tara was safely returned
    home.
         Here is the truth of the story:
         Actually Julie and I were out that morning because I was leaving. She was trying to persuade me
    to come back, but I wasn't hearing anything that made that sound likely.
    I was about to turn and go when an old, worn out dog walked between us and collapsed. Suddenly
    we had something more important than our problem to worry about. There was a creature in need
    right before us and we had to work together to help it.
         We did help it. And here am I writing the story in my own home, in my own family.
    In the song "Love Is Not a Fight" Warren Barfield talks about marriage. At one point he sings, "And
    if we try to leave, may God send angels to guard the door."
         Sometimes angels come disguised (伪装) as dogs.
    1. Which of the following statements is true?
    A. The two dog walkers didn't like the dog.
    B. The old black dog was sick and weak and couldn't walk.
    C. After finding the dog, the writer phoned its owners.
    D. Most of the dog's teeth had been pulled out by someone.
    2. We can infer from Paragraph 4 that ________.
    A. Julie bought some food for the dog
    B. the writer had his own pet dog
    C. the dog didn't go with the writer
    D. the dog didn't eat any of the food
    3. After they got the dog home, the couple ________.
    A. decided to raise the dog
    B. took good care of the dog
    C. found out that its owner was a lady
    D. found it hard to get to sleep
    4. The underlined part "our problem" in the passage refers to the fact that ________.
    A. the writer didn't want to take Julie's advice
    B. Julie disagreed with the writer's travel on business
    C. an old and worn out dog appeared in front of them
    D. the couple had some trouble with their marriage
    5. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
    A. A Helpful Couple.
    B. An Angel Dog.
