Our spiritual intelligence quotient, SQ (精神智商)helps us understand ourselves and live fuller, happier lives.
  While we’re all born with SQ, most of us even don’t know that we have it.  Luckily, you don’t have to sign up for classes to learn how to enhance(加强) your SQ. Here are some simple steps that can lead you to this new level of understanding:
  Sit Quietly. The step of developing SQ begins in solitude (独处) and silence. To tune in to its whisper, you have to keep away from your busy, noisy, complicated life and make yourself do nothing at all. At home, for example, shut the door of your bedroom, take a few deep breaths and let them out very, very slowly.
  Step Outside. For many people, nature makes their spirit free. Go outside to watch a beautiful sunset. Follow the flight of a bird; watch clouds floating overhead.
  Find An Activity You Enjoy. It’s important to find a hobby that helps you tune in to your spirit. Garden, walk or jog, arrange flowers, listen to music that touches your soul.
  Ask Questions Of Yourself. Some people use their thoughtful time to focus on scriptures (经文). Others ask open-ended (无确定答案的) questions, such as “What am I feeling? What are my choices?” But don’t expect an answer to arrive through  some super-natural form of e-mail. Later that day you’ll suddenly find yourself thinking about a problem from a perspective (角度) you never considered before.
  Trust Your Spirit. While most of us rely on gut feelings (直觉) to warn us of danger, SQ usually nudges (渐渐推动) us, not away from, but toward some action that will lead to a greater good.  
小题1:To enhance your SQ, you should first _______________.
A.stand loneliness and silence
B.make your life simpler and less busy
C.give up the daily things in your life
D.listen more to your whisper
小题2:The underlined phrase “tune in to your spirit” in the fifth paragraph probably means ________________.
A.get your spirit relaxedB.keep up your spirit
C.listen to your spiritD.change your spirit
小题3: What will happen after people ask questions of themselves?
A.People will lead to a greater good.
B.People will think about a problem in a different way.
C.People will expect answers through e-mails.
D.People will keep away from their busy life.
小题4: What is the best title for the passage?
A.Advantages and disadvantages of SQ
B.The relationship between your SQ and you
C.What SQ is and in what ways it can be improved
D.What SQ is and in what ways you can make your life easier

You can’t see any object unless light from that object gets into your eyes.Some of the things you see give off light of their own。The sun,the stars,a lighted lamp are the examples that can be seen by their own light.But most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own.They are just reflecting(反射)light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous bodies.The moon,for example,doesn’t give off any light of its own.It is not 1uminous.You see it because sunlight falls on it and some of the sunlight reflects on the earth.So moonlight is only second—hand sunlight.
When you look at a book,it sends some of the light which fails on it to your eyes,and you see the book.If light could be kept out from where you’re so that there would be no light from the book to reflect.Then you couldn’t see the book even with your eyes wide open.Light travels so fast that the time in which it travels from the book you’re reading to your eyes is as short as if there were no time at time.Light reaches us from the moon,which is about 380,000 kilometres away,in only a little more than a second.

   What is an e–reader? An e–reader is a small computer. It can hold thousands 
of e–books. So people want to throw away heavy schoolbags and read with small, light e–readers.
For example, a US high school has put its paper books away. Teachers and students are using e–readers now. “It’s so convenient. You can have so many books right at your fingertips.” said Meghan Chenausky,16.
Chinese schoolchildren are also trying e–readers. Hanvon WISEreader is the most popular e–reader in China. It weighs about 260g and is as big as a regular textbook. It is a special e–reader. Students can make notes on it. They can use it to download textbooks from school computers. It can also send and receive homework.
New e–readers are not just for reading. They have WI-FI(无线网络) and multimedia(多媒体).Parents think these may hurt children’s study habits. “I think WI-FI is not necessary for kids.” says Zeng Wenwen,43, Beijing.
   根据短文内容,判断下列句了正误。正确为“T”,错误为“F”。并在答题卡上把“T”或“F”涂黑。
小题1:An e–reader can keep thousands of e–books.
小题2:An e–reader can help to make schoolbags lighter than before.
小题3:In every US school, e–readers are used instead of paper textbooks.

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you must be an active person who enjoys life. Do you like blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and would rather follow than lead.
Colors do influence our moods (情绪). A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(令人压抑的). There was a black bridge over the Thames River, near London. The number of people who killed themselves on that bridge used to be larger than on any other bridge in the area -- until it was repainted green.
Light and bright colors make people not only happier but also more active. In the factory, the workers will work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black.

What’s your dream vacation? Watching wildlife in Kenya? Boating down the Amazon? Sunbathing in Malaysia? New chances are opening up all the time to visit the world. So we visit travel companies, compare prices, and pay our money.
We know what our vacation costs us. But do we know what it might cost someone else? It’s true that many poorer countries now depend on tourism for foreign income. Unfortunately, though, tourism often harms the local(本地的) people more than it helps them.
It might cost their homes and lands. In Myanmar, 5,200 people were forced to leave their homes among the pagodas(佛塔) in Bagan so that tourists could visit the pagodas.
Tourism might also cost the local people their jobs and dignity(尊严). Local workers often find only low-paying jobs in the tourist industry. And most of the money do not help the local economy(经济). Instead, money return to the tour operators in richer countries, When the Maasai people in Tanzania were driven from their lands, some moved to poor places of the city. Others now make a little money selling things or acting for photos.
Problems like these were noticed more than 20 years ago. But now tour operators and local governments are working together to begin correcting them. Tourists, too, are putting on the pressure.     
The result is “ethical(合乎职业道德的)tourism”. Ethical tourism has people at its heart. New international agreements and rules can help protect the people’s lands, homes, economies and cultures. The beginnings are small, though, and the problems are complex(复杂的).
But take heart. The good news is that everyone, including us, can play a part to help the local people in the places we visit. Tour operators and companies can help by making sure that local people work in good conditions and earn the money they should get.
They can make it a point to use only locally owned hotel, restaurants and guide services. They can share some money to help the local economy. And they can help the local people plan and manage tourism.
What can tourists do? First, we can ask tour companies to provide information about the conditions of local people. We can then make our choices and tell them why. And while we’re abroad, we can:
Buy local foods and products.
Pay a fair price for goods and services and not bargain for the cheapest price.
Ask before taking photographs of people.
They are not just part of the scenery!
Let’s enjoy our vacation and make sure others do, too.
小题1:Which of the following is not mentioned?
A.Local people protected the pagodas in Bagan well.
B.Tourists may stay in hotels opened by local people.
C.Local people are mainly provided with low-paying work.
D.Tourists had better not bargain with local people for a cheap price.
小题2: The underlined phrase "take heart" means"      ".
A.pay attentionB.take careC.cheer upD.give up
小题3: According to the passage, the writer thinks          .
A.tourism is not a promising industry
B.dream vacations should be spent abroad
C.the problems caused by tourism are easy to settle
D.tourists should respect local customs and cultures
小题4:What is probably the best title for the passage?
A.Tourism Causes Bad Effects.B.Tourism Calls for Good Behavior.
C.Vacations Bring a Lot of Fun.D.Vacations Cost More Than You Think.
