One 39 I tried to help Billy was to have him come directly into the classroom when he arrived at school. Billys mom would 40 me to alert (警告) me to a particularly emotional morning at home.

Despite her obvious pride, Ms. Fathi, a 22-year-old from Egypt, was amazed to find herself here. “I never in my life thought Id work abroad,” said Ms. Fathi, who was a university student in Cairo when she began noticing newspaper advertisements employing young Egyptians to work at airlines based in the Persian Gulf.Twenty years ago, unmarried Arab women like Ms. Fathi, working outside their home countries, were rare. But just as young men from poor Arab nations poured into the oil-rich Persian Gulf states for jobs, more young women are doing so. Flight attendants have become the public face of the new mobility for some young Arab women, just as they were the face of new freedoms for women in the United States in the 1950s and 1960s. They have become a subject of social anxiety and fascination in much the same way. For many families, allowing a daughter to work may call her virtue into question. Yet this culture is changing, said Musa Shteiwi, a sociologist at Jordan University in Amman. “Were noticing more and more single women going to the gulf these days,” he said. “Its still not exactly common, but over the last four or five years its become quite an observable phenomenon.”Many of the young Arab women working in the Persian Gulf take delight in their status as pioneers, role models for their friends and younger female relatives. Young women brought up in a culture that highly values community, have learned to see themselves as individuals. The experience of living independently and working hard for high salaries has forever changed their beliefs about themselves, though it can also lead to a painful sense of separation from their home countries and their families.From New York Times (December 22, 2014)56. It can be inferred from the passage that young Arab women _. A. go to work abroad after American womens exampleB. didnt start to work abroad until the late 20th centuryC. are commonly used to living and working separatelyD. expect to take the same family responsibilities as men57. According to the passage, the Arab women flight attendants can be described as _.A. proud, homesick or independent B. honest, outstanding or optimistic C. mature, enthusiastic or energetic D. painful, desperate or conservative58. How do the public respond to young Arab womens new mobility?A. The public think highly of it. B. The public care very little about it.C. The public show both interest and anxiety. D. The public are strongly against it. 59. The author intends to tell the readers that _.A. Arab women can hardly find any workB. flight attendants are badly needed in the gulfC. flight attendants lead quite a different life D. young Arab womens values are changing BWhat Is Natural MedicineNatural Medicine is to use the natural environment, the nature of the material itself to cure diseases and restore the health.

If you take the courses at home, you are more likely to _. A. focus on your own interests B. adjust your study schedulesC. get any help from instructors D. keep up with new techniquesCPatients and doctors alike have long believed in the healing (治疗) power of humor. It is claimed that humor not only affects patients moods, but can actually help them recover faster.Several studies seem to support this. Patients in better spirits are known to have higher immune cell counts. Some have even claimed to have healed themselves of serious illnesses by reading comics and watching comedies.Despite all this, many researchers are not convinced. They point out the fact that many sufferings have been known to disappear naturally, with or without a daily dose of laughter. They also say that while optimism in general does seem to be related to better health, it is hard to tell which comes first.Humor in times of stress, however, clearly makes us feel better. On one level, it takes our minds off our troubles and relaxes us. On another, it releases powerful endorphins, a chemical produced by your body that reduces pain. There are cases where the appreciation of a good joke is indeed directly related to a persons health. It can show, for example, whether a person has suffered damage to one particular area of the brain: the right frontal lobe (额叶). Scientists confirmed this by having people read jokes and asking them to choose the funniest endings from a list. Subjects with normal brains usually chose endings that were based on a relatively complex synthesis (综合) of ideas. Subjects with specifically located brain damage, however, responded only to slapstick (闹剧) endings, which did not depend on a particular context. When pressed, the brain-damaged subjects saw the logic in the correct endings. They simply did not find them funny.Of course, humor is largely an individual matter. Next time your friend does not get one of your jokes, there is no need to accuse him of being a lamebrain. However, you might suggest that he lighten upfor the health of it. 63. We can infer from the passage that _.A. all researchers have agreed on the healing power of humorB. people seldom accuse their friends of not understanding jokesC. the author holds a positive attitude to the healing power of humorD. reading comics will surely become a popular way of treating diseases64. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Many researchers are not convinced of the healing power of humor.B. Patients in bad moods are known to have higher immune cell counts. C. Optimism in general does seem to be related to better health.D. People should try their best to cheer up for their good health.65. Scientists had some people read jokes and asked them to choose the funniest endings from a list to confirm that _.A. the brain-damaged people are different from those with normal brainsB. a person with a normal brain usually responds to slapstick endingsC. a person suffering certain brain damage doesnt appreciate a good jokeD. humor takes our minds off our troubles by releasing powerful endorphins66. Which would be the best title for the passage?A. Which comes first, humor or health? B. Humor can cure different illnessesC. People need humor in times of stress D. Humor contributes to good healthDThe thing is, my lucks always been ruined. Just look a
