Every mountain has a peak. Every valley has its low point. Life has its ups and downs, its peaks and its 4 . No one

3、is up all the time, nor are they down all the time. Problems do 5 . They are all solved in time. You may not be able to control the times, but you can compose your response. The 6 is up to you. You may not have chosen your tough time, but you can choose how you will 7 to it. For instance, what is th

4、e positive reaction to a terrible financial setback? In this situation would it be the positive reaction to escape? Escape through alcohol or drug? No! Such 8 reactions only produce greater problems by promising a temporary solution to the pressing problem. The positive 9 to a problem may require co

5、urage to initiate it. When you control your reaction to the seemingly un-controllable problem of life, then in fact you do 10 the problems effect on you. Whether your reaction can make you 11 or tough, better or bitter all depends on you. Thats the bottom line. In the final analysis, the tough peopl

9、应位置上。 The first time you meet someone, in the first moment you form an impression in your mind of that person. Your reactions to other people, 16 ,are really just barometers(晴雨表) for how you feel yourself, 17 (say) more about you than they do about others. You cannot really love or hate about yourse

10、lf. Usually we 18 (draw)to those who are most like us and tend to dislike those who display those aspects of ourselves that we dislike. Therefore, you can allow others to be the mirror 19 you to see more clearly your own feelings of self-worth. Also, you can view the people you judge negatively as m

11、irrors to show you 20 you are not accepting about yourself. To live together 21 (peace) with others, you will need to learn tolerance. A big challenge is to shift your idea completely from judgment of others to 22 lifelong exploration of yourself. Your task is to assess all the 23 (decide), judgment

12、s you make onto others and to begin to view 24 as clues to how you can heal yourself and become whole. When you approach life in this manner, those with 25 you have the greatest dislikes as well as those you admire and love can be seen as mirrors, guiding you to discover parts of yourself that you r

That percentage is even higher in woman. As in many developing

14、 countries, many Eritreans have traditional ideas about the role of women. They believe that women should stay home and take care of the family and should not get an education or look for a job. These beliefs are one of the factors that prevent Eritrea and other developing countries from improving t

15、heir economic situation. Experience in many developing countries has shown that educated women have fewer children and have more opportunities for improving their lives and the lives of their families. In Eritrea, in fact, there is great need for improvement. It is one of the poorest countries in th

16、e world. For many Eritrean families, getting enough food is a daily problem. To deal with these problems, the Eritrean government together with the World Food Program has a new program that offers food as a reward for learning. In primary schools, all the children receive food packages to take home

17、to their families. However, with the new program, the girls receive more food than the boys. This way, parents are encouraged to send their daughters to school rather than keeping them at home. Another government program that aims to educate women is Food for Training. Managed by the National Union

18、of Eritrean Women, this program offer food rewards (from World Food Organization) to women and elder girls who are willing to join the program. Because of the war with Ethiopia, many women are bringing up their families on their own. They often live in refugee camps, with no land of their own and no

19、 way to earn money. Most of these women are illiterate and have no skills to find a job. They spend most of their day looking for food and preparing it for their families. The Food for Training program helps the teenagers and women change their lives. If they agree to join the program, they receive

20、a large package of food each month. In return, the women are required to attend free literate classes for two hours every day. When Food for Training began classes in two regions of Eritrea, 5000 girls and women joined in the first two months. It is especially popular with teenage girls, aged fourte

21、en to sixteen, who have never had a chance to go to school before.26. In tradition, Eritrean women are expected to_. A. work in the field to plant crops B. stay at home to look after their children and families C. work to help support the family D. earn skills to improve the lives of their families2

22、7. The Eritrean government offers extra food to girls in school in order to_. A. encourage parents to send girls to school B. improve womens social position C. encourage girls to stay at home D. create more jobs for teachers28. According to the passage, Food for Training will_. A. inform women of in

23、ternational aid B. forbid women to stay at home C. help women better their lives D. encourage women to live in refugee camps29. The underlined word illiterate (in Para. 4) probably means_. A. uneducated B. learned C. lazy D. stupid30. Which of their following statements is NOT true according to the

24、passage? A. Many Eritrean families lack enough food. B. Educated women are more likely to have a better life than uneducated women. C. Eritrea tries to improve its economic situation. D. The Food for Training program is not welcome by men in EritreaB It is common sense that children who walk or cycl

25、e to school have a lower risk of obesity than those shuttled to and fro by car, but driving your youngsters to the school gates could also cause their academic work to suffer, a study has revealed. Researchers found that children who were driven to school, or who took public transport, had poorer co

26、ncentration levels than those who took a more active route such as walking or cycling, the Daily Mail reported. The joint study by researchers at two Danish universities found that the regular exercise could advance a student up to half a year in their studies. Children who were driven to school, or

27、 who took public transport, performed less well in a test measuring concentration levels, than those who had walked or cycled. The results surprised the researchers, as they originally focused on the effects of eating breakfast and lunch on pupils ability to concentrate. The exercise one uses to tra

28、nsport oneself to school is reflected in the level of concentration one has approximately four hours later, Niels Egelund, a co-author of the report, said. The results showed that having breakfast and lunch has an impact, but not very much compared to having exercised. As a third-grade pupil, if you

29、 exercise and bike to school, your ability to concentrate increases to the equivalent of someone half a year further in their studies, he added. In the survey, taken by 19,527 pupils aged five to 19 years, participants were asked about their exercise habits and were then given a basic test measuring

30、 their concentration. Most people know the feeling of being refreshed after having exercised, but it is surprising that the effect lasts for so long, Egelund said. Previous research from the University of Montreal has found that exercise helps our brains make better use of oxygen.31. Walking or cycl

31、ing to school has the following effect on children EXCEPT_. A. keep slim B. having longer concentration C. making better use of oxygen D. feeling tired out32. What can we learn from the passage? A. Children driven to school have a lower risk of obesity B. Brcakfast has the same influence as walking

32、to school on childrens concentration. C. At first, researchers only tried to find out the relation between childrens diet anconcentration. D. The effect of exercise on students concentration lasts for an hour.33. Whats Niels Egelunds attitude to cycling to school? A. supportive B. opposed C. unconce

33、rned D. objective34. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Walking or cycling to school improves students concentration. B. Children driven to school cant focus on their lessons. C. Exercise helps children to keep fit. D. Students should walk or cycle to school.35. Which section of a newspaper ca

34、n we read the above passage? A. economy B. amusement C. education D. society C Can you imagine living without cars, computers or telephones? Some people in the rain forest and mountains of Venezuela and Brazil do just that. One tribe (部落), the Yanomami, has lived the same way for thousands of years.

35、 They only have numbers for one, two and more than two, and they have never invented the wheel. But they have also been called some of the last free people on earth. In the late 1920s, researchers found a tribe of people untouched by modern society. This was the first reported meeting with the Yanom

36、ami, who were living deep within the South American jungle. Scientists agree that their location deep in the forest helped their culture unchanged. Until recently, most Yanomami still lived in isolated regions. Everything they needed came from the rain forest. They hunted, fished and farmed the land

37、. Then a discovery brought the outside world to them. And along with it came deadly changes. Gold was discovered in Yanomami in the 1970s. By 1987, around 80,000 miners had moved into the area. In a fight to take over the land, they killed some Yanomami. They also brought into new sicknesses, includ

38、ing the common cold and malaria. Today over 62 percent of Yanomami show signs of malaria. Just as deadly were the results of mining, including polluted streams and cleared forests. Within just seven years their population fell by 20 percent. Today governments and international organizations are look

39、ing for ways to protect the Yanomami. The Brazilian government has reserved a large area of land for the tribe. And in 1990, Brazil ordered all the miners out of Amazon region. Yet these things might not be enough. Gold is so valuable that miners keep going back and harming the Yanomamis way of life

40、.36. When was the existence of the Yanomami first discovered ? A. In the 1970s B. In the late 1920s C. In 1987 D. In 199037. What does the underlined word it mean in Para 3? A. the discovery of gold B. researchers discovery in the 1920s C. the outside world D. the rain forest38. Which of the followi

41、ng statements is true? A. The Yanomami is the only remaining untouched people on earth. B. Most Yanomami know the exact meaning of the number 8. C. The Yanomami learned to use wheels long before. D. Before miners arrived, the Yanomami had never suffered from malaria.39. Which of the following was NO

42、T the reason for the sharp decrease of the Yanomamis population? A. They starved to death. B. They were killed in the fight. C. Their living environment was destroyed. D. They were killed by the new illnesses brought by miners.40. What can be inferred from the passage? A. The discovery of gold is be

43、neficial to the Yanomami. B. Gold mining made no difference to the Yanomami. C. Miners are a great threat to the protection of the Yanomami. D. Nowadays no miners remain in Amazon Region.D Should people who study science and business pay less for college than people who focus on art and history? Tha

44、t may soon be the case at Floridas state universities. In tough economic times, Florida governor Rick Scott wants to lead college students toward careers that will pay off after graduation. There are more jobs available in Florida in the fields of business, engineering, healthcare, science and techn

45、ology. So why not encourage students to focus on these high-demand subjects by charging less tuition for them? We assume students go to college because they want to find jobs, Dale Brill told TFK. He is the head of a group of business people, educators and lawmakers who made the recommendation to th

46、e governor to keep tuition low for job-friendly areas of academic study, called majors. We all share the goal of students getting jobs and being productive citizens. Some majors are more valuable than others. Supporters of the plan say it benefits students, the state and universities. More students

47、will choose these high-demand majors and get jobs after graduation. The state will gain an educated workforce that is qualified to fill open jobs. Universities that can show that their graduates are getting jobs will qualify for more funding from the state. But critics of the plan say its unfair to

48、load humanities majorsthose who study literature, philosophy, history and artwith debt while keeping tuition low for so-called high-demand majors in business and science. In fact, university professors wrote a letter to Governor Scott arguing that companies have a need for humanities majors with sup

49、erior analytical, critical thinking and communication skills. The letter also warns that if students majoring in history and other humanities subjects are forced to pay higher tuition, they may simply choose to attend universities in other states. Still others argue that the plan sets students up fo

50、r failure. Students should choose majors based on their interests, skills and talents, rather than on what jobs are available at any given time. Those who choose majors because they are interested in a particular field of studywhether it is engineering, art or literaturewill be more successful and s

51、atisfied in their careers.41. Rick Scott wants to charge science students less tuition because_. A. It can attract more students to learn science. B. Science subjects are so hard to learn. C.
