10．Some recent surveys show that the health conditions of many white collar employees and office workers are rather critical．Death cases among white collar employees and office workers are increasing year by year and these cases are generally believed to have been caused by overwork and spend little time taking rest or doing exercise．If their offices are within the distance of half an hour's walk，some office workers now choose to go to work on foot．Ms．Wang，who works in a foreign enterprise in Beijing，has been walking to her office for more than six months now．"I usually have a tight work schedule and can't find time to do exercise．So I choose to walk to work．"As she said，if the office is not far from home，most women would like to go to work on foot．Walking is good for their health and can help them to keep good figuresas well．
Apart from walking to office，one can also find time to do exercise when one is at work．The simple way is to abandon the lift．Mr．Yang who works in the Passenger Service Department at Beijing Airlines，is one of such men who frequently climb stairs to his office．"I only use the lift whenever I am with my colleagues or my boss．Otherwise，I would climb stairs instead of taking the lift．"
In addition，some office workers try to find time to go to gym at the end of a day．Ms Sunny works in a law firm．She goes to the gym several times a week when she has the time．"I go to the gym every weekend．During the weekdays，I will also go there whenever I have the time．"Ms Sunny and her husband both have a gym membership card for a whole year．The cards cost them a lot of money．However，they think it is worth it．

9．Online clothes shoppers will be told exactly what size is best．for them using new software which combines with their web camera or smart phone to form a"3D tape measure"．
Scientists from Surrey University and design experts from the London College of Fashion are developing a program which can take precise （精确的） waist，hip，chest and other measurements from camera images．
Using the person's height as a starting point，the software will be able to build up a 3D image and estimate their size at various different points on the body，based on their overall proportions．
The result will be a more accurate sizing guide than previous systems based on waist size or a"small/medium/large"scale，which rely on limited measurements and the buyer's perception of their own body size．
Shoppers and retailers（零售商）who choose to sign up for the project could save millions of pounds a year in postage costs by removing the need to order multiple sizes of the same garment（服装） and send back ill-fitting clothes，researchers claimed．
The project，sponsored by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council（EPSRC），is expected to be brought to market within two years．
After choosing an item，the shopper will activate the software，enter their height，stand in front of their webcam or smart phone in their underwear and take a photograph．
The software will not store or transmit the image to the internet，but will use it to judge the person's dimensions at various points on their body．
Philip Delamore of the London College of Fashion said："The potential benefits for the fashion industry and for shoppers are huge．Currently，it's common for online shoppers to order two or three different sizes of the same item of clothing at the same time，as they're unsure which one will fit best．"

8．Americans who volunteer for the Peace Corps get a chance to help improve lives in developing countries．They also get a chance to learn more about the world，and about themselves．This week this program is celebrating its 50th anniversary．
President John Kennedy established the Peace Corps soon after he took office in 1961．It was the time of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union．The new program gave Americans a chance to answer the call to service that the president made in his inaugural（就职的）speech．"Ask not what your country can do for you，"he said．"Ask what you can do for your country．"Kennedy told Peace Corps volunteers that America's image in the countries where they were going would depend largely on them．
On August 30th，1961，the first group of 51 Peace Corps volunteers arrived in Accra，Ghana，to serve as teachers．They had agreed to work for almost no pay．They would spend two years in Ghana helping its people and learning the reality of life in a developing country．Most of the volunteers had just completed college．About half of them taught English or health care．In the 50 years since then，more than 200，000 Americans have served as Peace Corps volunteers．They have worked in 139 countries．
The Peace Corps is a government agency that was created to promote world peace and friendship．There are three goals：First，to help the people of interested countries in meeting their need for trained men and women．Second，to help promote a better understanding of Americans on the part of the people served．And，third．to help promote a better understanding of other people on the part of Americans．
Today，the Peace Corps has more than 8，000 volunteers and trainees in 77 countries．They work in agriculture，economic development，education，the environment and health care．Some work in programs related to youth development．
Sixty percent of current Peace Corps volunteers are women．The average age of a volunteer is 28．But the ages of Peace Corps volunteers range from 18 to 86．Some Americans join the Peace Corps after they retire．Today seven percent of volunteers are over the age of 50．And 19 percent are members of minority groups．

5．[1]Everyone knows how to spend money，but not many people know how to spend it wisely．When you learn to spend wisely，you are learning the art of saving money．
[2]Spending money wisely does not mean buying cheap goods．A pair of shoes that costs two hundred dollars is probably better than a pair of shoes that costs twenty dollars．How do you know which pair of shoes is better？For one thing，you can consider how long the shoes are going to last．If the pair of twohundreddollar shoes can last （for） five years，the average cost of the shoes per year is just forty dollars．Besides，the pair of shoes that costs two hundred dollars will be more comfortable than cheaper shoes．The pair of cheaper shoes may last only a few months and cause your legs to suffer．Why should you spend money buying pain and suffering？However，some shoes that last a very long time are very cheap．If you can find this kind of shoes，you are getting very good value for your money．
[3]When you spend money on junk food，you are using your money to buy sickness and early death．No matter how much the cost of the meal is，spending money on junk food is foolish．You will spend more money on medical services later on in life．Investing （投资） in your health means you can save money on medical costs．Many people，who live more than a hundred years old，live happily in the pink．They seldom suffer from serious illnesses．They are the ones who invest in their health and save money on medical costs．
[4]When you can treat any spending as an investment，that means you are spending money wisely．It will produce returns for you in the future．Whenever you need to buy something，please ask the question，"Is this an investment or just spending？"

56．What's mainly talked about in the text？（within 6words）How to spend money wisely．
57．What can determine the quality of shoes？（ within 9words）The length of lasting and the comfort of wearing．
58．What are the disadvantages of cheaper shoes？（within 9words）They may not last long and may be uncomfortable．
59．Why is spending money on junk food considered to be foolish？（within 10words）
Because you will spend more money on medical services later．
60．How can you spend money wisely？（ within 8 words）By treating any spending as an investment．．

4．Teaching is more than leadership．Some of the teacher's time and effort is directed toward instruction，some toward evaluation．But it is the teacher as a group leader who creates an effective organizational structure （结构） and good working environment so that instruction and evaluation activities can take place．A group that is totally disorganized，unclear about its goals，or constantly fighting among its members will not be a good learning group．The leadership pattern includes helping to form and maintain a positive learning environment so that instruction and evaluation activities can take place．
On the first day of class，the teacher faces a room filled with individuals （个体）．Perhaps a few closely united groups and friendships already exist．But there is no sense of group unity，no set of rules for conduct in the group，no feeling of belonging．If teachers are successful leaders，they will help students develop a system of relationships that encourages working together．
Standards and rules must be set to keep order，make sure of justice and protect individual rights，but do not contradict school policy．What happens when one student hurts another's individual rights？Without clear regulations agreeable to the students and teachers，the classroom can become chaotic．Students may break rules they did not know existed．If standards are set without participation from the class，students may spend a great deal of creative energy in destroying the class environment or finding ways to break rules．
No matter how skillful the teacher is in uniting students and creating a positive atmosphere，the task is never complete．Regular maintenance is necessary．Conflicts arise．The needs of individual members change．A new kind of learning task requires a new organizational structure．Sometimes outside pressures such as holidays，upcoming tests or sport competitions，or family troubles cause stress in the classroom．One task for the teacher is to recreate a positive environment by helping students deal with conflict，change，and stress．

43．The underlined word"maintain"in Para.1 probably meansA．
A．conserve
B．build
C．recreate
D．evaluate
44．According to the author，the teacher shouldC．
A．free students from outside pressures
B．set the standards and rules on his own
C．be responsible for a well-organized class
D．focus more on instruction and evaluation
45．From the passage we can learn thatD．
A．rules cannot be changed once they're formed
B．outside pressures may not cause tension among students
C．if the teacher well unites his students，he then will finish his task
D．if rules are not acceptable both to students and teachers，the classroom can be a mess
46．What is the author's main purpose of writing the passage？A
A．To provide information for teaching．
B．To show the importance of teaching a class．
C．To study the teacher's behavior in the classroom．
D．To compare the teacher's behavior with the students'in class．

3．We live in a fast-paced and anxiety-filled world that oftentimes seems to shift beneath our feet．Thus we are sometimes affected by fears or anxiety impacting our life．For as long as I could remember I had struggled with anxiety．After I left university，I made friends with a Moroccan woman at work．One day she invited me to（11）D her and her family back home．I wanted to，but I would have to travel there （12）A and I knew we would be in a very rural area．How would I cope with my （13）D？
Then one day it （14）D to me that I had a life to live．I could choose to let anxiety （15）B me or I could go to Morocco and （16）B something different．I was 23years old and had never been out of the UK alone．The journey to Morocco （17）A something inside me．I managed to cope with my anxiety．The sense of （18）A was overwhelming and still to this day when I get afraid of going somewhere alone，I remember how （19）A it felt when I arrived in Morocco．
Upon arrival I was so （20）D for the generous welcome I received．My friend's family had arranged a welcome party．The people were so loving toward me．As a moment of （21）C felt in a faraway village，this reminded me that I was"good enough"，which helped to （22）D my anxiety．
Waking up the next day，in the morning light，I saw the area where we were．I was （23）D by how rural it was-and the realization that these people had very few （24）C．
In the days afterwards，I traveled around Morocco．We went to Marrakesh and （25）B the Atlas mountains．We had the most amazing food-lots of fresh fruits and vegetables．
At the end of my （26）C something inside me had changed．I realized I had not felt anxious for nearly two weeks．
Experiencing a different culture far away from home helped me to realize what is important in life，what really （27）C，and with that my anxiety （28）A．When I returned home I was much more active in （29）B my anxiety．Working with people，helping them （30）D their anxiety，is how I can share the love I found in Morocco．
