     We all know that money can't make us happy, but many times we act as if we'd be
happier with a bit more money. We are conditioned to want to be richer; we are trained
to want the latest style that television tells us; we want to earn more money because then
we'll have a good life.
     But none of that will make us happier. And the sad thing is that it can take us decades
of pursuing (追求) wealth and expensive things before we realize that. So what will bring
us happiness? Luckily, there are three things that don't cost anything. Here they are:
     Good relationships. We have a human need to be close with other human beings. Having
good, supportive friendships, a strong marriage or loving relationships with our family members
will make us much more likely to be happy. Therefore, take time, today, to stay with your
loved ones, to tell them what they mean to you, to listen to them, and to develop your r
elationships with them.
     Positive thinking. Optimism(乐观) is one of the best indicators of people who lead a
happy life. Happy people feel empowered, in control of their lives. So why not make
positive thinking a habit? In fact, this should be one of the first habits you develop.
     Flow. This is a popular concept on the Internet these days 一 the state we enter when
we are completely focused on the work or task. Having work and leisure(休闲)that gets
you in this state of flow will almost undoubtedly lead to happiness. People find the greatest
enjoyment not when they're passively mindless, but when they're absorbed in a mindful
challenge.
     If you are interested in some kind of work and keen on some kind of hobbies, it is not a
bad idea. Turn off the TV 一 this is the opposite of flow 一 and then go outside and do
something that truly makes you active.

     We all know that certain oils are healthier than others, but your oil health goes beyond just the type.
The health of your oil can be related to how you use it too.
     Each type of oil has what is called a "smoke point". The smoke point is the specific temperature at
which the oil starts to break down, or in more technical terms, its molecular structure begins to change.
These molecular changes result in changes in flavor, as well as changes in nutritional value-specifically,
the nutritional value of the oil starts to reduce, changing what once may have been considered an
especially healthy oil, like olive, into one that is unhealthy.
     The higher an oil's smoke point is, the higher the temperature of the oil can be.As a result, each type
of oil should be used for the cooking method that is most appropriate to its individual smoke point and

heat tolerance.Here is a quick guide for the next time you reach for your favorite oil.

Note that the above table represents oils that are refined (精炼的). Most oils we buy are refined.
Refine d oils tend to have much higher smoke points than when they are unrefined.They also differ in
nutrition and flavor.Unrefined oils are more nutritious and they tend to be much richer in flavor.
When it comes to extremely high heat cooking,always choose oils which are refined.

1. What determines whether an oil is healthy or not?

A. Whether it's refined or not.
B. Its smoke point.
C. Its molecule.
D. How you use it.

2. Which of the following might be a better choice to make a healthy salad?

A. Refined walnut oil.
B. Safflower oil.
C. Unrefined olive oil.
D. Sunflower oil.

3. Healthy oil can become unhealthy if________ according to the passage.

A. you keep it for too long
B. it is heated well beyond its smoke point
C. it is refined
D. its flavor is changed

     We all know that teenagers like to sleep late. But more and more research is showing that this is not
just a preference - or even the result of late-night studying or instant messaging - but is rooted in their
biological rhythms (节律). All of this would be little more than an interesting observation except that most
high schools start so early, and so many teenagers are having a hard time staying awake.
     A recent article in The Times cited a National Sleep Foundation survey in which more than a quarter
of the students reported that they fell asleep in class at least once a week. Researchers say this is true
because youngsters - beginning around age 12 until they reach their mid-20s-only start producing
melatonin, the sleep-inducing hormone (荷尔蒙), around 11:00 pm and that production lasts until about 7:00 am. In adults, melatonin lasts to around 4:00 am. Trying to wake up a teenager before 7:00 am is
like trying to awake an adult before 4:00 am.
     The obvious remedy (补救) would be for high schools to start later-well, after 8:00 am. A handful of
schools that have switched have reported beneficial results. School officials in Minneapolis say that
attendance improved and students' grades rose slightly after they changed to start at 8:40 am several
years ago. In Wilton, Conn., where the high school start time was pushed back to 8:20 am from 7:35 am,
teachers and parents reported better student behavior and greater alertness (活泼). Surveys of students
in both districts indicated that they did not use the later starts as an excuse to go to bed later.
     Numerous districts have considered the idea of later high school hours, only to drop it because of
fierce adult opposition. Coaches complain that the later classroom hours in the afternoon would take time
from their training programs and teams' success. School bus companies would be forced to change their
schedules. And many parents complained that they would have to adjust their own schedules.
     Many schools officials say more research is needed. We're all for that and for remembering that the
goal is to educate youngsters-and for that they need to be awake.

1. According to the new research, teenagers like to sleep late because _________ .

A. their biological systems make them do so
B. they waste too much rest time sending instant messages
C. they prefer to stay in bed rather than get up early
D. they have to study till late at night

2. We can learn from the second paragraph that melatonin makes ________ .

A. youngsters awake after 7:00 am
B. youngsters sleepy before 7:00 am
C. adults sleepy after 4:00 am
D. adults awake after 4:00 am

3. The third paragraph is written to show that _________ .

A. many high schools start after 8:00 am
B. later high school start time made students go to bed late
C. students don't go to bed late even though they have later high school hours
D. later high school start time is a very effective measure

4. According to the passage, who are fiercely against later high school hours?
① School team coaches.
② Many parents.
③ School teachers.
④ School bus companies.

A. ①②③
B. ①②④
C. ①③④
D. ②③④

     We all, at one time or another, have pretended to be a rock star, singing and dancing along to our
favorite song.Most of us have done this in the privacy of our own room when we were kids and as adults,
in the privacy of our homes.Me? I love to do that when I drive! 1 turn on the radio, find a song that I can
sing along too and pretty soon my arms are in the air and I am moving along to the rhythm.Most of the
time, I do this on my way to work.
     Yes, that is true, I will be in my nice work clothes, jamming while driving or stopped at a traffic light I
get weird (古怪的)) looks from some people and others laugh.Personally, I love to get lost in the rhythm
of a song which leads me to share with you the importance of being silly!
     The definition for the word silly, according to the dictionary is: stupid, foolish and nonsensical.I know
many people do not want to look foolish.So they walk around all serious, which in all honesty, is foolish!
     No one is perfect, I repeat: no one is perfect.I don't care how educated, how thin, how beautiful, how
simple, how frugal (节俭的), how rich, and so on...No one is perfect! So why pretend to be something
you are not?
     Life is so short...You never know when this beautiful journey will be over, so why waste a single
second on being so full of rigidity (呆板)? Here is a quote by Souza, that I think says it all and is a great
recipe for life:
     "Dance as though no one is watching you,
      Love as though you have never been hurt before,
      Sing as though no one can hear you,
      Live as though heaven is on earth."
     When we were kids, we had no idea of what limitations were and we had no care in the.world so we
could do things without worrying about how we appeared to others.However, as we grew up, we lost
that childlike innocence.
     So don't lose the child that still lives within you.The next time you feel down, go turn on your favorite
song, and sing and dance along like there is no tomorrow.Or watch something that makes you laugh.
Laughter is the best medicine to whatever ails (使痛苦) you and nothing is better than laughing so hard
that your stomach hurts.Trust me, you will feel a whole lot better, and who doesn't want to feel good?

1. According to the text, what does the writer usually do?

A. He repeats the words of songs.
B. He sings songs on his way to work.
C. He dances in his own home.
D. He shares music with other drivers.

2.What does the writer think of the people who look very serious?

     We already know the fastest, least expensive way to slow climate change: Use less energy. With a little
effort, and not much money, most of us could reduce our energy diets by 25 percent or more-doing the
Earth a favor while also helping our wallets. Not long ago, my wife, PJ, and I tried a new diet-not to lose a
little weight but to answer an annoying question about climate change. Scientists have reported recently that
the world is heating up even faster than predicted only a few years ago, and that the consequences could be
severe if we don' t keep reducing emissions (排放) of carbon dioxide( CO2) and other greenhouse gases that
are trapping heat in our atmosphere.
     We decided to try an experiment. For one month we recorded our personal emissions of CO2. We wanted
to see how much we could cut back, so we went on a strict diet. The average US household (家庭) produces
about 150 pounds of CO2 a day by doing common-place things like turning on air-conditioning or driving cars.
That's more than twice the European average and almost five times the global average, mostly because
Americans drive more and have bigger houses. But how much should we try to reduce?
     For an answer, I checked with Tim Flannery, author of The Weather Makers: How Man Is Changing the
Climate and What It Means for Life on Earth. In his book, he had challenged readers to make deep cuts in
personal emissions to keep the world from reaching extremely important tipping points, such as the melting
(融化) of the ice sheets in Greenland or West Antarctica."To stay below that point, we need to reduce CO2
emissions by 80 percent." he said.
     Good advice, I thought. I' d opened our bedroom windows to let in the wind. We' d gotten so used to
keeping our air-conditioning going around the clock. I' d almost forgotten the windows even opened. We
should not let this happen again. It' s time for us to change our habits if necessary.

It can be inferred from the passage that _____.

A. it is necessary to keep the air-conditioning on all the time
B. it seems possible for every household to cut emissions of CO2
C. the average US household produces about 3,000 pounds of CO2 a month
D. the average European household produces about 1, 000 pounds of CO2 a month

     We all remember seeing hitchhikers, standing by the side of the road, thumb sticking out, waiting for a
lift. But it is getting rare nowadays. What killed hitchhiking? Safety is often mentioned as a reason. Movies
about murderous hitchhikers and real-life crime have put many drivers off picking up hitchhikers. That no
single women picked me up on my journey to Manchester no doubt reflects the safety fear: a large, strangely
dressed man is seen as dangerous.
     But the reason may be more complex: hitchhiking happens where people don't have cars and transport
services are poor. Plenty of people still hitchhike in Poland and Romania. Perhaps the rising level of car
ownership in the UK means the few people left hitchhiking are usually considered strange. Why can't they
afford cars? Why can't they take the coach or the train?
    Three-quarters of the UK population have access to a car; many of the remainder will be quite old. The
potential hitchhiking population is therefore small. Yet my trip proves it's still possible to hitchhike. The
people who picked me up were very interesting-lawyer, retired surgeon, tank commander, carpenter, man
who lived in an isolated farmhouse and a couple living up in the mountains. My conclusion is that only really
interesting people are mad enough to pick up fat blokes in red, spotted scarves. Most just wanted to do
someone a good turn; a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn't help stopping.
     The future of hitchhiking most likely lies with car-sharing organised over the Internet, via sites such as
hitchhikers, org. But for now, you can still stick your thumb out (actually, I didn't do much of that, preferring
just to hold up my destination sign) and people-wonderful, caring, sharing, unafraid people-will stop.
     In the UK, with its cheap coaches and reasonable rail service, I don't think I'll make a habit of it. But having
enjoyed it so much, I'm ready now to do a big trip across Europe and beyond. In the 1970s a female friend of
my wife's hitchhiked to India. How wonderful it would be to have another go, though Afghanistan might be a
challenge. I wish I'd got that tank commander's mobile number.

1. The author tried to hitchhike but was rejected by single women drivers because _____.

A. they were not heading towards Manchester
B. they thought most hitchhikers were dangerous
C. hitchhiking had been banned and they didn't want to break the law
D. he was a strong man in strange clothes who seemed dangerous

2. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Movies have discouraged people from hitchhiking.
B. Car ownership levels are lower in Romania than in the UK.
C. 25% of UK people don't have access to cars.
D. Increased car ownership has reduced the need for hitchhiking.

3. The "fat blokes in red, spotted scarves" in Paragraph 3 most likely means _____.

A. murderous hitchhikers
B. friendly and talkative hitchhikers
C. typical hitchhikers
D. strange hitchhikers like the author

4. According to the author, future hitchhikers are more likely to _____.

A. visit websites and find people to share cars with
B. stand by roads with their thumbs sticking out
C. stick out signs with their destinations written on
D. wait for some kind people to pick them up

5. From the last paragraph, we know that the author _____.

A. frequently hitchhikes in Britain
B. plans m hitchhike across Europe
C. thinks public transport is safer for travel
D. is going to contact the tank commander

     We all dream although we remember only a few of our dreams. Some people train themselves to
remember their dreams. As soon as they wake up, they record what their dreams were about.
     Scientists believe that we have different kinds of sleep. One kind is called R.E.M. R.E.M. stands
for rapid eye movement. During this kind of sleep our eyes move quickly, even though they are closed.
Although we are asleep, there are a lot of brain activities. We probably have dreams at this time.
     Sometimes people talk in their sleep. In these dreams the dreamer is usually unhappy or worried
about something. The worst of the dreams are so frightening that we call them nightmares. In a nightmare
we often dream that we are being closed or that we are trapped in some way.
     Scientists or others have written books about the meanings of dreams. The most famous of these
scientists was Sigmund Freud who wrote a hundred years ago. He suggested different meanings to
certain kinds of dreams. It is possible, however, that every dream has a special meaning only for the
person who dreams it, and that this dream about something is in that person's life.

1. How can we tell if someone is having an R.E.M. dream?

A. They are talking in their sleep.
B. They are worried about something.
C. Their eyes are moving quickly.
D. Their eyes are moving slowly.

2. What is the main idea of Paragraph Four?

A. Bad Dreams.
B. The meaning of dreams.
C. People and their dreams.
D. R.E.M. and sleep and dreams.

III. 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第一节阅读（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）

Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes, and that our Grandmas think we’re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics. but sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge. it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.

Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about US. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.

The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it.

It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you’re weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesn’t mean it’s true.

The best way to get rid of a negative serf-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way. Good luck!

1. You need to build a positive self-image when you _________.[来源:Zxxk.Com]

A. dare to challenge yourself B. feel it hard to change yourself

C. are unconfident about yourself D. have a high opinion of yourself

2. According to the passage, our serf-images _________.

A. have positive effects B. are probably untrue

C. are often changeable D. have different functions

3. How should you change your serf-image according to the passage?

A. To keep a different image of others. B. To make your life successful.

C. To understand your own world. D. To change the way you think.

4. What is the passage mainly about?

A. How to prepare for your success. B. How to face challenges in your life.

C. How to build a positive self-image. D. How to develop your good qualities.

5. Who are the intended readers of the passage?

第三节：阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，共30分）

请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Strong winds, sand in the air, poor visibility (能见度), we all know the characteristics of a sandstorm. But what else do you know about them?

Did you know, for example, that the first sandstorm of 2009 hit north China’s Inner Mongolia autonomous region late February?

Sandstorms are today a feature of life in northern China because of desertification (沙漠化) and the retreat (退化) of the northern grasslands. They usually occur between February and May.

Fortunately, sandstorms this year should be fewer than in past years in north China, according to the National Meteorological Center (中央气象台).

And the chances of sandstorms hitting Beijing are small, because recent rain has stopped drought and reduced dry dirt and dust. Tree planting, and other measures taken by the government, has also helped decrease the chance of sandstorms in the city.

Sandstorms can be dangerous. However, there are measures you can take to protect yourself from harm.

﹡Wear a mask. Cover your nose and mouth with a mask that can keep out sand, or use a damp handkerchief.

﹡If you are driving and the storm is at a distance, it may be possible to outrun (超过) it. If it looks like you will be caught in the storm, stop and wait it out.

﹡Take a cover. If there is no shelter, then lie down. Keep eyes, nose and mouth covered. Cover your head with your arms or a backpack to protect yourself against flying objects.

If you are caught in a desert sandstorm, take the following actions.

﹡Mark your direction before lying down. It is easy to get lost in a desert.

﹡Keep plenty of water at hand. If you get lost, you need water to survive until you find your way or help arrives.

﹡Stay together if traveling in a group. Lock arms if caught in a sandstorm. The most useful measure would actually be to make sandstorms disappear forever. To make this goal come true, people should plant trees, and stop desertification.

Today, the straight-line distance between Tiananmen Square and a desert called Tianmo in Hebei province is only about 80km. If desertification is not stopped, environmental protection experts say, it will probably not be long before Beijingers can catch a camel to work.

56.According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?

A. So far in 2009 no sandstorm has happened.

B. Sandstorms usually happen in spring.

C. Sandstorms are a feature of life in China.

D. In sandstorms in cities, what you need to protect yourself from is just the sand in the air.

57.Which may not be the right action to take to protect yourself from harm in a sandstorm?

A. Finding a shelter.

B. Covering your head with a bag.

C. Lying down.

D. When driving, speed up and rush through the sandstorm.

58.What can we infer from the passage ?

A. North China has been suffering from sandstorms for several years.

B. The distance between Beijing and the desert has made the chances of sandstorms hitting Beijing small this year.

C. Planting trees can help make sandstorms disappear.

D. It is more dangerous to be caught in sandstorms in cities because there are more flying objects.

59.What’s the best title of the passage?

A. The realities of sandstorm B. The cause of sandstorm.

C. The influences of sandstorm D. The future of sandstorm.

IV 阅读理解（共 20小题；每小题 2分，满分 40分）

阅读下列短文，然后从各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

We all know, especially for me who like travelling very much, travelling can be a way to gain life experiences, especially during Spring Break----a week long school vacation in the United States. But what if you’re a student and don’t have enough money for a trip? Don’t worry. Here are some useful suggestions.

Save: this probably is the most important preparation for travelling. Cut expenses to fatten your wallet so you’ll have more choices about where to go and how to get there.

Plant ahead: Don’t wait until the last minute to plan your trip. Tickets may cost more when bought on short notice. Giving yourself several months to get ready can mean security(安全) and saving.

Do your homework : No matter where you go, research the places you will visit. Decide what to see. Travel books will provide information on the cheapest hotels and restaurants.

Plan sensibly, Write down what you expect to spend for food and hotels. Stick to your plan or you may not have enough money to cover everything.

Travel in groups: Find someone who is interested in visiting the same places. By traveling with others you can share costs and experiences.

Work as you go: Need more money to support your trip? Look for work in the places you visit.

Go off the beaten path: Tourist cities may be expensive. You may want to rethink your trip and go to a lesser-known area. Smaller towns can have many interesting act ivies and sights.

Pack necessary things: The most important things to take are not always clothes: Remember to take medicine in case you get sick and snacks in case you cannot find a cheap restaurant.

Use the Internet: The Net can help to save money. Some useful websites include www.Travelocity.com. www.bargains-lowestfare.cm and www.Ecoomictravel.co

By planning sensibly, even students can enjoy the travel. Your travel experiences will be remembered for a lifetime.

56.This passage is about______.

A. how to plan your travel B. how to travel with enough money

阅读理解

　　In a US city, a woman parked her car in an attended lot．Hoping to get a discount on the cost of parking, she asked, “Do you give validation(批准)?” “Certainly,”replied the store's manager：“You are an excellent person and I love your hair．” That might be worth the cost of parking．I mean，who wouldn't pay a couple of dollars for this kind of validation?

　　Author Alan McGinIlis cites an interesting study about the power of positive encouragement．A second-grade teacher complained that her children were spending too much time standing up and roaming around the room rather than working．

　　Two psychologists observed the behavior of the children and the teacher．Every ten seconds they noted how many children were out of their seats．They counted 360 unseated children throughout each 20-minute period．They also noted that the teacher said "Sit down!" seven times during the same period．

　　The psychologists tried an experiment．They asked the teacher to tell the children to sit down more often．This time they noted that she commanded her students to sit down 27.5 times in an average 20-minute period, and now 540 were noted to be out of their seats during the same average period．Her increased scolding actually made the problem worse．

　　Then the experimenters tried a different task．They asked the teacher to quietly praise those children who were seated and working．At this time, children's roaming was decreased by 33％．They showed their best behavior when they were praised more and blamed less．

　　People who motivate others to take great action are almost always those who encourage more than criticize; who praise more and blame less．

　　Perhaps the woman's question is the correct one after all．"Do you give validation?" I hope I can always answer “YES”．

[　　]
A．	they were motivated by the psychologists

(3)

[　　]
A．	it is better to blame others than to praise others
B．	sometimes it's hard to receive praise from others
C．	criticizing children does no good to their growth
D．	we all know how to encourage others by praising

(4)

Why does the author talk about the study in the passage?
[　　]
A．	To show the power of encouragement．
B．	To show how the teacher praises children．
C．	To show his argument is scientifically based．
D．	To show the teacher is a successful motivator．
