    When I was a teenager I volunteered to work at the water station at a 10,000m race. My job was to   36  water to the runners. I remember being so   37  to see all the different kinds of people who passed by and grabbed a cup of water. Some ran past, some walked past and a few wheeled past. I saw so many types of people doing it. I thought maybe I could do it too! So the next year I   38  up for the race.
    That first 10,000m race was quite an  39 . I jogged, I walked, I jogged and I walked.   40  , I didn’t know if I could finish. Then came a defining (决定性)   41  .
    At one point near the end, a 70-year-old man ran past me, very, very fast, and I felt   42 because I was 50 years younger than he but I couldn’t even keep up with him. I felt   43  for a second.
    But then I   44  something. He was running his race and I was running mine. He had   45  abilities, experience, training and goals for himself. I had mine. Remember my   46 was only to finish.
    After a minute, it   47  me that this was a lesson I could draw from. I learned something about myself in that moment. I turned my embarrassment into   48 .
    I  49  that I would not give up on running races. In fact, I would run even more races and I would learn how to train and prepare   50  and one day I would be one of those 70-year-old persons who were still running. As I crossed the finish line, I was proud of my   51 .
    In life we all have those moments where we   52  ourselves to others. It’s only   53 . Don’t allow those moments to   54  you. Turn them into motivation and let them inspire you. With the proper preparation and training, you can improve your result to   55   anything you want in life.

    “As you cross this bridge,think about  28  difficult,but it is possible”.

    After all,life is good   38  all the hardships pains and difficulties,life teaches me to be   39  in facing and adversity（逆境）while at the same time it makes me  40  to those who suffer, If somebody does something terrible to me,I have to think back the bridge of forgiveness---difficult but possible.

    On the morning of November 18, 1755, an earthquake shock Boston. John Winthrop, a professor at Harvard College, felt the quake and awoke. “I rose”, Winthrop wrote, “and lighted a candle, looked at my watch, and found it to be 15minutes after four.” John Winthrop hurried downstairs to the grandfather clock. It had stopped three minutes before, at 4:12. Except for stopping the clock, the quake had only thrown a key from the mantel(壁炉台) to the floor.
    The clock had stopped because Winthrop had put some long glass tubes he was using for an experiment into the case for safekeeping. The quake had knocked the tubes over and blocked the pendulum(钟摆).Winthrop, therefore, had the key on the floor. The quake had thrown it forward in the direction of the quake’ s motion by a shock coming from the northwest, perhaps in Canada.

    Anger is good for you, as long as you control it, according to new psychology research. A new study from Carnegie Mellon University shows anger may help people reduce the negative impacts of stress and help you become healthier.
    “Here getting emotional is not bad for you if you look at the case of anger,” said Jennifer Lerner of Carnegie Mellon. “The more people display anger, the lower their stress responses.”
    Lerner studied 92 UCLA students by asking them to count back from 6,200. They must say out loud every thirteenth number. Researchers disturbed them by asking them to count faster or ask them other questions. If they made any mistakes, they had to restart from the very beginning. Many students felt depressed about making so many mistakes or got angry.
    Lerner used a hidden video camera and recorded all their facial expressions during the test. The researchers describe their reactions as fear, anger and disgust.
    Other researchers recorded the students’ blood pressure, pulse and production of a high-stress hormone（荷尔蒙）called cortisol. People whose faces showed more fear during the experiment had higher blood pressure and higher levels of the hormone. Both can have lasting effects such as diabetes（糖尿病）, heart disease, depression and extra weight gain.
    When people feel fear, negative impacts increase, but when they get angry, those negatives go down, according to the study.
    “Having that sense of anger leads people to actually feel some power in what otherwise is a maddening（令人发狂的）situation,” Lerner said.
    Lerner previously studied Americans’ emotional response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks two months after the incident. She found people who reacted with anger were more optimistic. These people are healthier compared with those who were frightened during the event. So in maddening situations, anger is not a bad thing to have. It’s a healthier response than fear.
    小题1: What is the story mainly about?
    A．The findings of new psychology research.
    B．What you can do with anger in certain cases.
    C．Different effects produced by anger and fear.
    D．Healthier responses in maddening situations.
    小题2:Which statement will Jennifer Lerner agree with?
    A．It’s better to be angry than to be frightened.
    B．Different reactions reflect different outlooks on life.
    C．Don’t control your anger and it makes you powerful.
    D．Pessimistic people are generally healthier than optimistic people.
    小题3:What does the underlined word “both” refer to according to the passage?
    A．Fear and anger.B．Blood pressure and pulse.
    C．Blood pressure and cortiso1.
    D．Higher blood pressure and higher levels of the hormone.
    小题4: In what ways can anger be beneficial to people?
    A．By showing their optimistic side.B．By reducing their stress.
    C．By reducing high blood pressure.D．By taking the place of fear.
    小题5:The researchers irritated（激怒）the students by __________.
    A．recording their performance secretly
    B．asking them to count to 6, 200 again and again
    C．disturbing them and making them start all over again
    D．criticizing them when they made mistakes

    Women who want to succeed at work should resist the temptation to act like men, scientists have said. Studies show that ambitious women are often less likely to get ahead than those who show more female characteristics. However, if they try to adapt, promotion comes their way. The findings, which will let assertive (过分自信的) women down, suggest that the best way for a woman to succeed in a man’s world is to act like a lady.
    Past research has shown that women with self-confidence and other characteristics linked with successful management can be put aside at work in favor of gentle types. It is thought that while such characteristics are highly praised in men, ambitious women are penalized for not being feminine enough. Instead of being seen as strong managers, ambitious women are in an unfavorable situation.
    In one US study, researchers explored personal details from university students applying for a summer job at a bank. A women applicant who attempted to apply for special wages to pay her transport or living costs was three and a half times less likely to get a job offer than a similar male. In fact, this kind of woman was the least likely to get taken on.
    The latest study set out to explore what women who are naturally assertive could do to get ahead in the workplace. Eighty young men and women completed surveys about their personality while studying in college. Around eight years later, the researchers got back in touch with them to find out how their careers were going. Some had been promoted five times, others just once or twice. The results showed that ambitious women who stick to their decisions had been promoted less than more feminine groups. But the ambitious women who made a conscious effort to not appear to be threatening by “self-controlling” their behavior had done better than those who had carried on ignoring others’ views.
    小题1: What does the underlined word “penalized” mean in the second paragraph?
    A．Treated badlyB．Asked to leave
    C．Looked down uponD．Made sb. have a disadvantage
    小题2:According to the passage, if an ambitious woman and a similar man both ask the company for an extra payment, ______.
    A．the woman is less likely to be accepted
    B．the woman will work harder if she gets the payment
    C．the man can make a good impression on the boss
    D．they can be both accepted if they use proper words
    小题3:The ambitious women in the latest study ______.
    A．had been promoted only once or twice
    B．tried hard to be as successful as gentle types
    C．were more accepted at work after they controlled their behavior
    D．filled in the surveys after they graduated from college
    小题4:What can we learn from the passage?
    A．Successful management is highly praised in women.
    B．Some women will be disappointed by the massage.
    C．Men acting like a lady are likely to be promoted at work.
    D．The latest study was aimed at how to become a successful boss.
    小题5:What’s the main idea of the passage?
    A．How assertive women can control their behavior.
    B．Feminists can do better by controlling their behavior.
    C．Acting like a man won’t get women promoted at work.
    D．How the ambitious women can avoid acting like men.

    When six the very best students from different cities in Guandong province all together chose universities in Hong Kong; when the very best student of Beijing picked up HK University while giving up the nearby Peking or Tsinghua University; when the highest enrollment （录取）rate of Hong Kong Science and Industry University reached 48:1, it’s the high time to ask where the real education heaven for students in China is.
    Years ago, the answer certainly would be “Peking or Tsinghua University”. But now no one could give the exact reaction without hesitation. The only sure thing is that HK universities have gradually showed an unusual attraction to a great many mainland students.
    It’s no doubt to call this HK craze（狂热）,which is even out of the expectation of those HK universities themselves.
    How can HK universities shake the steady foundations of Peking and Tsinghua and attract so many mainland students?
    First, Hong Kong universities offer large-amount scholarship, especially for the top students who can receive the sum scholarship as much as 400,000 HK dollars. Since higher education has become a kind of heavy burden of many families, it’s easy to understand why the reaction to the generous offering of HK universities is great.
    Second, most HK universities receive professors and students from all over the world and carry out bilingual（双语）education. This kind of excellent language atmosphere is another attraction for mainland students.
    Further more, university students in Hong Kong have a better chance to study abroad as exchange students.
    Can mainland top universities like Peking or Tsinghua University calm as before when facing the unexpected competition from HK? Will they take relevant measures to win back the top students who once help them set the worldwide reputation? Time will explain it.
    The fierce competition brought by HK universities can be a good thing for an entire improvement of education in China. After the awakening and action taking of mainland universities, they can perform better together with HK universities.
    At least, it reminded the mainland universities the tuition fees（学费）are among students’ top concern when they are choosing universities. It’s time to move.
    小题1:What is the passage mainly talking about?
    A．Some thought brought by the enrollment of HK universities.
    B．Higher education in Hong Kong.
    C．The competition between HK University and Peking University.
    D．The fall of mainland universities.
    小题2:Top students from mainland apply for HK universities because           .
    A．many students now would love to study aboard to get a better experience.
    B．they concern only about the tuition fees when choosing universities.
    C．HK universities offer higher scholarship, better environment and more opportunities for their further study.
    D．Peking university has lost its worldwide reputation.
    小题3:What is the author’s attitude toward the competition brought by HK universities?
    A．The government should take relevant measures to stop this unfair competition.
    B．Mainland universities had better lower their tuition fees and win back the top students.
    C．Universities both in mainland and in HK would get an entire improvement during the competition.
    D．It may probably cause a complete loss both sides in the end.
    小题4:From the passage we can see HK universities           .
    A．didn’t mean to enroll top students from mainland
    B．didn’t expect their enrollment of mainland students would be so popular
    C．have strict enrollment rules and only 1 out of 48 students can get the chance to study there
    D．are proud of their teaching staff and facilities
    小题5:What does the author mean by saying “It’s time to move” in the last paragraph?
    A．Mainland universities should take measures as soon as possible to attract students.
    B．The opportunities come for top students to study abroad.
    C．Mainland universities should make full preparations to challenge mainland universities.
    D．Top students should be offered further education free of charge.

    Do you want to have a lot of close friends? In order to make it happen, you must do a lot of things right. You will learn tips on how to build a solid friendship.
    You should be extra respectful when you are at others’ homes. For example, you must not make unpleasant comments about them. Once when I was at the house of a friend as a high school senior, I told him he had feet that looked funny while he had his socks off in his bedroom. He rebutted(反驳),“If you’re going to make fun of my feet, you can leave.’’
    You must be a person of your word. For example, if you say you will do something for or with your friend, you must follow up on it.
    You must respect people other than your friends.This includes respecting your friends’ family members and being polite to others in general.
