over and over for days，weeks，months，and sometimes years，has a great effect on how we see ourselves.this also contributes to many mental health disorders.many of us have problems with negative thoughts playing on the channel of our minds，but if youre buried in them and believe them，they could be wearing your sense of selfesteem (自尊)here are a few beliefs that indicate you may need to switch the channel：im not good enough？/i dont deserve.？/no one likes me？/im a failure?negative thoughts remind you of your bad feelings and they bring your focus on your failures，and they get you nowhere.what can you do？here are some suggestions：switch the channel when negative thoughts appear.selftalk is not so obvious that we often dont notice its effect on our mood and belief systems.key things to notice are “if only” or “what if” statements：the former keeps you stuck in the past with regret，while the latter keeps you fearful of the future.there is nothing you can do about the past，and the future isnt here yet，so stay in the present moment.recognize that actions always follow beliefs.youll find yourself behaving in ways that are consistent to your beliefs.so，start believing the best about yourself：act as if you believe that youre a valuable and worthy person.develop positive selftalk rather than negative selftalk.instead of always looking down upon yourself in your head，think of some things you actually like about yourself.what are your strengths？what are you good at？instead of saying “im a loser”，try saying，“i am capable./im good at./i accept myself the way i am.”thinking poorly about ourselves gets us nowhere and is extremely selflimiting.decide today to turn off the negative selftalk channel in your mind and develop your true potential.1from the first two paragraphs

journalca science textbook da travel brochure语篇解读文章主要告诉大家抛弃消极的思想，培养积极的思想。1解析：推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的“what we say to ourselves over and over for days，weeks，months，and sometimes years，has a great effect on how

minds”可以判断出，消极的思想会对人产生不利的影响，故答案为b。答案：b2解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词前后的内容可知，这里指的是消极的思想可能会减弱人们的自尊感。故wearing在此与weakening的意思最接近，表示“减弱”。答案：c3解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后四段的内容可推知，积极的自我暗示对我们的心理有益，故b项正确。答案：b4解析：推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章鼓励我们抛弃消极的思想。答案：a5解析：推理判断题。由于本文主要说明的是消极思想和积极思想对人们所产生的影响，故本文最有可能出现在医学杂志上，选b。答案：b.。阅读理解。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(a、b、c和d)中，选出最佳选项。for decades, morocco, the only north african nation without large quantities of oil, combed the surrounding desert in search of fossil fuels. but roughly a year and a half ago, the country turned to a resource that exists in abundance across the region: the sun.now europelong dependent on middle eastern oil and russian natural gashas begun to look toward the heat of the sahara for some of its long-term energy needs. by 2050, roughly 15 percent of european energy could be produced by wind and solar-thermal(太阳能热) power in north africa and parts of the middle east, according to dii, widely known as desertec, a group of mostly european companies such as siemens that are developing clean-energy technology in the region. although the effortexpected to cost 510 billionis still in the early stage of development, analysts say morocco has far more aggressive investment plans than its regional rivals(竞争对手) and is well positioned to become north africas leading provider of renewable energy, especially solar-thermal.in 2008, when global oil prices hit record highs, moroccowhich imports most of its powersaw energy costs nearly double, to roughly 9 billion annually. soon after, king mohamed vi issued a royal command making the development of alternative energy a top priority. he also put a legal framework in place to encourager european investment and has managed to limit instability in a region known for political confusion.another advantage for morocco: geography. the sun over the sahara is far stronger than it is in europe. but what distinguishes the country from its neighbors is that it is close to spain. the two countries are separated by less than 16 km at some points, and theyre connected by an energy transmission line. currently the line sends energy from spain to morocco, but it could work both ways, and analysts say the lines existence gives morocco an advantage over its neighbors for access to the european market.getting a position in that market may take some time, however, due to a shortage of funding. by 2020, morocco hopes to invest several billion dollars in solar-thermal power and use to technology to greatly increase its energy production. but unlike, say, wind power, which is economically competitive with fossil fuels, solar-thermal often is not, despite financial support from various international institutions. analysts say the costs of solar-thermal will come down, eventually.1. the main purpose of the passage is to tell readers _.a、morocco makes huge profits from its new energyb、europe and morocco has made a deal to cooperatec、europe is searching the sahara for new energyd、morocco is developing a new form of energy2. we can learn from paragraph 2 that _.a、now morocco is north africas leading provider of renewable energyb、morocco has a strong desire to produce more green energyc、siemens clean-energy technology is far from satisfactoryd、europe gets most of its energy from russia and america3.the author mentions

to communicate in a way that is more indirect and subtle. they often view direct, explicit communication as unsophisticated(不成熟的) or even rude. they are more likely to preserve good feelings and

westerner may assume that there is a good chance that the answer will be “yes”. in fact, there is a better chance that the implied answer is “no”.one interesting example of the western preference for
