题目列表(包括答案和解析)
To get an extra 14 years of life, don't smoke, eat lots of fruits and vegetables, exercise regularly and drink alcohol in a proper amount．That is according to a study published this Monday in the Public Library of Science Medicine Journal．
After tracking more than 20,000 people aged 45 to 79 years in the United Kingdom from about 1993 to 2007, Kay-Tee Khaw of the University of Cambridge and his colleagues found that people who adopted these four healthy habits lived all average of 14 years longer than those who didn't．
“We've known for a long time that these behaviors are good things to do, but we've not seen this benefit before, ”said Susan Jebb, head of Nutrition and Health at Britain's Medical Research Council．“The benefit was also seen regardless of whether or not people were fat and what social class they came from．”
Study participants（参与者）scored a point each for not smoking, regular physical activity, eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day and moderate alcohol intake．
Public health experts said they hoped the study would inspire governments to introduce policies helping people to adopt these changes．But because the study only observed people rather than testing specific changes, it would be impossible to conclude that people who suddenly adopted these healthy behaviors would surely gain 14 years．
“We can't say that any person could gain 14 years by doing these things, ”said Dr．Tim Armstrong, a physical activity expert at the World Health Organization．“The 14 years is an average across the population of what's theoretically（理论上地）possible．”
“Most people know that things like a good diet matter and that smoking isn't good for them, ”Susan Jebb said．“We need to work on providing people with much more practical support to help them change．”

B．the study observed people as well as tested specific changes．
C．there's no need for people under 45 to adopt these good habits．
D．only those from first class can benefit from these healthy behaviors．
3.What can be inferred from the passage?
A．All the people are well aware of the harm of their bad habits．

Today I felt very u
ncomfortable studying English as usual．My eyes were 36 and my mind was confused．I buried my head deep in the great pile of books．Many vocabulary words 37 my mind．As more and more entered，I 38 focus，and my 39 became crazy．The clock hands were pointing at twelve. I always 40 the time when I study．Without any fruitful results，I felt more 41 and tired．I 42 up and walked to the living room just to take a little break． 43 that would make me feel better．The street lamps looked like stars outside the window．A few scattered(分散的)branches 44 shadows on the French window．Something seemed more 45 and quiet than before．I walked to the 46 slowly，and let my face press against it， 47 very carefully
…oh my God!!…It’s snow! It was very bright and covered up the whole 48 while I was studying English painfully, so white and so quiet．At this moment, I was so 49 that I felt like I might burst into tears．The snow was like a spring 50 into my heart，and my eyes were shining with it．All my pain and tiredness 51 at this moment，as the snow dropped into my heart．
I quickly became calm again as the excitement went away．I sat on the bed silently，and drew the 52 to one side to let the white house and white tree stay just beside my bed．I thought this must be a(n) 53 from God，because I liked snow so much． 54 I was weakest and most helpless in this world，nothing could inspire me but 55 ．I should inspire myself from such a beautiful scene．

Negative （消极的）self talk and negative energy can affect you m many ways and cause you additional stress. Because of this，developing more Positive self talk’s an important way to reduce stress in your life. You can help yourself maintain a positive frame of mind 一which will help with positive self talk一by surrounding yourself with positive energy in your life. You can get that by adding some elements to your life.
Listening to music that not only has a soothing melody，but an uplifting message，can be great for developing positive self talk. Have you ever had a song “stuck in your head” for a few hours or days，the lyrics repeating themselves in your mind?’’ If those lyrics were positive and inspirational，that would be a good thing. It’s a much better mental soundtrack to have than a running stream of complaints，criticisms of self-limiting thoughts，or even songs that had more depressing or sad lyrics.
Books on strength, personal power, enlightenment, or self help can be good resources to help you change your outlook and the things you say to yourself. Rather than bringing habitual self-defeating thoughts，you can find yourself thinking of new can-do concepts when times get tough.
One of the most important ways you can get and keep positive energy in your life is with the company you keep. Do your friends uplift you，or bring you down? Are they critical，or complementary? Ideal friendships provide support when you’re down, fun when you’re up，wisdom when you’re lost，and positive regard. Good friends can inspire you to reach greater heights，and see your strengths even when you don’t always. Pay attention to how your friends make you feel，and if they’re less than supportive，start putting your energy and time toward people who are better suited to be your friend.
In addition，positive affirmations （肯定） can certainly change your self talk from negative to positive. Now，why not begin working positive affirmations into your life in some creative ways?
