    F. Gift giving as a two-way social activity
                                                                             Gift Giving
    1.______
         There are many occasions (场合) for giving gifts in modern industrialized societies: birthdays, naming
    ceremonies, weddings, anniversaries, New Year. It is common to give gifts on many of these celebrations
    in western cultures. In addition, special events, such as one's first day of school or graduation from university,
    often require gift giving.
    2.______
         What is happening when we give gifts? Most important, we are exchanging gifts. If someone gives me
    a gift for my birthday, I know that I am usually expected to give one on his or her next birthday. A gift builds
    up or confirms a social obligation (义务).
    3.______
         Gifts tighten personal relationships and provide a means of communication between loved ones. People say
    that a gift lets the recipient (接受者) know we are thinking of them, and that we want to make the person "feel
    special." We want people to feel wanted, to feel part of our social or family group. We give presents to say
    "I'm sorry." Sometimes it is difficult for us to find a present that someone will like. Sometimes we give things
    that we like or would feel comfortable with. In all these cases, the gifts are sending out messages-often very
    expressive ones.
    4.______ 
         People tend to talk about presents in a fairly loving way. A woman whose mother had died years ago
    described the many gifts around her house. These were gifts that her mother had given her over the years:"I
    appreciate these, and they mean something to me," the woman said, "because I remember the occasions they
    were given on, and that they were from my mother, and the relationship we've had." The gifts remain and keep
    the relationship alive in mind. This woman felt the same way about the gifts she gave to others. She hoped that
    the recipients would look at her gifts in years to come and remember her.
    5.______
         Emotions (情感) like these suggest that a positive spirit still lies behind gift giving. They prove that the
    anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss was wrong to say that modern western gift giving is highly wasteful.
    Studies in Canada and elsewhere have also shown that this is not the case. Each gift is unique even if so many
    are given. The emotional benefit for those who exchange gifts is the very reason for the tradition to continue.

         根据短文内容，从下框的A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项
    为多余项。
    A.The secret of the writer's success        
    B. A write with enduring popularity
    C. Well-received creation toencourage Brits  
    D. The insight into human nature
    E. Writing styles in different stages    
    F. The story appreciate for school students
    1. _____
         Charles Dickens is often thought of as one of  England's great writers. Yet for many his language is
    old-fashioned and his story plots often improbable. Why, Dickens, out of so many other great English
    writers, has made the list? How then to explain Dickens's enduring popularity?
    2. _____
         One reason undoubtly is the British government's insistence that every child studies a Dickens novel at
    school. Alongside Willian Shakespeare, Charles Dickens is a compulsory (必读的) writer on every
    English literature school reading list. His stories, though often over-long by today's standard,are superbly
    written moral tales. They are filled with colorful characters.
    3. _____ 
          But what makes his books stand out from other English writers is his insight into human nature.
    Dickens, like Shakespeare, tells us truths about human behavior that are as true to citizens of the 21st
    century as they were to his readers in the 19th century. Readers have returned to Dickens's books again
    and again over the years to see what he has to say about readers'own time.
    4.  _____
         The BBC adapted one of his less well-known novels, Little Dorrit, into a popular television drama that
    introduced many Brits to the novel for the first time. A dark story about greed and money, it was the
    perfect story to illustrate the bad times. No surprise then that it was Dickens Britons turned to, during the
    economic crisis last year, to make sense of world rapidly falling apart.
    5. _____ 
          Readers of the 19th and early 20th century usually prized Dickens's earlier novels for their humor
    and pathos (悲痛). While recognizing the virtues of these books, critics today tend to rank more highly
    the later works because of  their formal coherence and acute perception( 洞察力) of the human
    condition. For as long as Dickens's novels have something to say to modern audiences, it seems likely
    that he will remain one of Britain's best loved writers.

    根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项。
         I was interested in reading a newspaper article about a new concept in old people's homes in France.
    The idea is simple, but revolutionary - combining a residential home for the elderly with a nursery school
    in the same building.   1   In the afternoon, the residents enjoy reading or telling stories to the children, and
    if a child is feeling sad or tired, there is always a kind lap to sit on and a cuddle (拥抱). There are trips
    out and birthday parties too.
           2   The children are happy because they get a lot more individual attention, and respond well
    because someone has time for them. They see illness and death and learn to accept them. The residents
    are happy because they feel useful and needed. They are more active and more interested in life when the
    children are around and they take more interest in their appearance too.
           3   There are many reasons for this, including the breakdown of the extended family, working parents with no time to care for aging relations, families that have moved away, and smaller flats with no room for
    grandparents. But the result is the same-increasing numbers of children without grandparents and old
    people who have no contact with children. And more old people who are lonely and feel useless, along
    with more and more families with young children who desperately need more support.  4   
         That's why intergenerational programmes, designed to bring the old and the young together, are
    growing in popularity all over the world.   5   Using young people to teach IT skills to older people is one
    obvious example. Using old people as volunteer assistants in schools is another, perhaps reading with
    children who need extra attention.
    A. The advantages are enormous for everyone concerned.
    B. There are examples of successful attempts all over the world.
    C. Nowadays there is less and less contact between the old and the young.
    D. However, there are some similarities between the old and the young
    E. The children and the residents eat lunch together and share activities.
    F. No previous experience can we use to communicate between them.
    G. It's a major problem in many societies.

    根据短文内容，从短文后七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
         What Makes Anxiety Happen?
         Well, because we can't outlaw tests, we might as well figure out how to ease test anxiety. Anxiety is a
    feeling a person gets when he or she expects something stressful to happen.
             1    A kid might think, "What if I forget everything I know?" or"What if the test is too hard?" Too many
    thoughts like these don't leave much room in your mind to concentrate on remembering the answers to the test
    questions. People with test anxiety can also feel stressed out by the physical reaction and think things like
    "What if I throw up?" or"Oh no, my hands are shaking."
         These thoughts can get the person even more upset, making the anxiety even stronger. Now, the person
    feels worse and is even more distracted and unable to concentrate.
         What Can You Do?
         You might be reading this article and saying, "Hey! That sounds just like me!" If so, we're glad you
    recognize that this happens to you.    2    Here are some ways to do that;
         ☆Ask for help
         Talk to your mom or dad, your teacher, or your school guidance counselor (辅导员). Just talking to
    someone about test anxiety can make you feel better. Describe what happens to you when you're taking a test
    and these people can help you figure out some solutions. For instance, learning study skills can boost your
    test-day confidence.
         ☆   3    Pay attention in class. Do your homework.
         ☆Expect the best   4   Say to yourself,"I studied and I'm ready to do my best."
         ☆Block bad thoughts Watch out for any negative messages ("I'm no good at taking tests" or"I'm going to
    freak out if I get a bad grade"). These thoughts can make anxiety worse and make it harder for you to do well
    in the test.
         ☆Accept mistakes
         Everyone makes mistakes and be more forgiving of your own mistakes, especially if you prepared for the
    test and are set to do your best.
          ☆Take care of yourself
         You'll feel your best if you get enough playtime, sleep, and nutritious food. This is important all the time,
    but be extra-sure you get all three the day before a test.
         ☆Breathe better
         Did you know that breathing exercises can help calm you down? (Just try not to take in too much air
    because it might make you feel dizzy.) Here is how to do it.   5    Do this two to four times and you just might
    breathe easier the next time you're taking a test!
    A. Breathe in slowly and deeply through your nose, and then breathe out slowly through your mouth.
    B. Be prepared
    C. Take food and nutrition into consideration.
    D. Once you have prepared, think positively.
    E. Focusing on the bad things that could happen can make a kid feel more worried.
    F. He might often think about what would happen to him.
    G. Now you can start taking steps to lessen your test anxiety.
