I sometimes order products or service online to save money and time instead of going to a store and _5_ (buy)what Im looking for.

Furthermore，I dont download or open any files I dont recognize. Using the Internet can be fun and _9_convenient way of shopping and finding out new information._10_ you just need to be careful.(二)Even though Americans spend 93 percent of their time inside，it is the outdoor environment，and _1_(particular) the weather，_2_ plays tricks with our mood._3_ rainy，dark day can bring somberness(阴沉，忧郁) to even the most enthusiastic among us，the dog days of summer make us go through the day a little slower，_4_the cold，short days of winter _5_(easy) bring on the blues.Why the weather has such a profound effect _6_our mood is something that researchers _7_(try) to pin down，but have been having a difficult time _8_so many humans have become largely indoor creatures. It _9_(confirm)，though，that most people feel a bit more blue in the winter and a little bit _10_(good) in the spring.(三) The story goes that some time ago，a man punished his 3yearold daughter _1_ wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became _2_ (angrily) when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree._3_，the little girl brought the gift to her father_4_ next morning and said，“This is for you，Daddy.” The man was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction，_5_ his anger flared again when he found out the box was _6_(emptily).He yelled at her，stating，“Dont you know，when you give someone a present，there _7_(suppose) be something inside？”The little girl looked up at him with _8_ in her eyes and cried，“Oh，Daddy，its not empty at all.I blew kisses into the box.Theyre all for you，Daddy.”The father was crushed.He put his arms around his little girl，and he begged for her _9_(forgive)Only a short time later，an accident took the life of the child.It is also told that her father kept that gold box by his bed for many years and，whenever he was discouraged，he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who _10_(put) it there.(四)Many people like to _1_ the latest newspaper.But _2_ is it produced so quickly？The most important man may be _3_chief editor.He decides _4_to do.Every morning the _5_ (journal) are sent to report the events.Sometimes they need a facetoface interview with people _6_do telephone interviews.Meanwhile，the picture editor sends photographer to take the _7_ they need.Later in the day，they pass the stories and the _8_(develop) photos to the editor.The chief editor will choose the most important news for the front page._9_ editors read the stories，make some necessary changes and write headlines for them._10_the newspaper is printed and delivered to different places.(五)I am one of the many city people who _1_(be) always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country _2_ from the dirt and noise of a large city.I have managed to convince myself that if it werent for my job I _3_(will) immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village.Cities can be _4_(frighten) places.The majority _5_the population live in massive tower blocks，noisy，dirty _6_impersonality.The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up._7_you can see from your window is sky，or other blocks of flats.Children become aggressive and nervouscooped up(困住) at home all day，with nowhere to play；their mothers feel _8_(isolate) from the rest of the world.Strangely enough，whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other，nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks dont even say hello to each other.People will greet each other only when they meet _9_ acquaintances.Country life，on the other hand，differs from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of small villages together.“People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn _10_ when they need help，” said Professor Johnson of Yale University.(六)One day a rich man took his son on a trip to the country.He wanted to show his son how the poor lived so he could be thankful _1_ his wealth.

factor _1_ distinguishes man from animals._2_ our brain we know the world better and better.Our brain is _3_product of constant use through millions of years.Other things can be used up，but our brain can never be exhausted.In fact，the more we use it，the more capable and efficient it will _4_.But too much use of the brain will cause a lot of problems.So it is _5_(use) to know how to use our brain wisely.We should avoid _6_(do) brain work for long hours.The brain，though 3% of the body weight，_7_ at work，consumes 20% oxygen _8_(carry) by 16% of blood in circulation.A long period of brain work will，through body inactivity，cause _9_blood circulation and inadequate oxygen supply to the brain，_10_(result) inefficiency and possible damage to the brain.(八)Reading Comprehension ProblemsReading comprehension is the heart and goal of reading，since the purpose of all reading is to gather meaning from the _1_(print) page._2_ a student says words in a passage _3_gathering their meaning，_4_ would hesitate to call that reading.By age six to seven children should be _5_(sense)to such characteristics of stories as the main character，sequence of events，inferences，the motives and feelings of

seek pen pals on line.These free pen pal sites offer services that are _6_ than free.The services offered by free pen pal sites are often _7_(price)Countless numbers of people _8_(develop) invaluable friendships through free pen pal websites，_9_many of these freindships wouldnt have been possible _10_the free services provided by the generosity(大度) of free pen pal websites.(十)The Internet has

have _3_ higher IQ and _4_ there is nothing they can do to change facts.However，new research _5_ EQ suggests that success is not simply result of a high IQ.While your IQ tells you how _6_ (intelligence) you are，your EQ tells you how well you use your intelligence.Professor Salovery，_7_ invented the term EQ，gives the following description：At work，it is EQ _8_ gets you promoted.Supported by his academic research，Professor Salovery suggests that when _9_ (predict) someones future success，their character，_10_ measured by EQ tests，might actually matter more than their IQ. (十二)Do you often let other peoples nonsense change your mood？If so，try _1_(get) back your focus on whats important _2_ (quick)Sixteen years ago，I learned this lesson in the back of _3_ New York City taxi club.We took off for Grand Central Station.We were driving in the right lane _4_，all of a sudden，a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us.My taxi driver braked hard and missed the other cars back end _5_just inches！The driver of the other car started yelling bad words at us.However，my taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. So，I said，“Why did you just do that？The guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital！” And this is，when my taxi driver told me，_6_I now call，“The Law of the Garbage Truck.”Many people are _7_garbage trucks.As their garbage piles up，they need a place to dump(倒垃圾)_8_.When someone wants to dump on you，you just smile，wave，wish them well，and move on.Youll be happy you _9_(do)Love the people who treat you right.Forget about the _10_ who dont.(十三) Do you feel _1_ difficult to be happy all the time？Now Ill give you some tips _2_ how to make yourself happy.One way is being _3_(self) because unselfishness is the key factor _4_ (require)if you want to get along well with others.By _5_ (say)being unselfish we mean we _6_ not want everything our own way or demand the best share of everything.Another way is to look for good points in _7_people.Youll find most people pleasant to go with and it will surely make you happy.Third，you can not expect to be too perfect，so dont be too unhappy when you make a mistake.Everything will be OK if you try to make things right.Finally，it is important to remember _8_ while you are no _9_(bad) than others，chances you have may not be much better.In this case，_10_ surest way to be happy is to think yourself above other people.(十四)Some 160 years ago，young men and women streamed into New York，Philadephia，Bostonthe United States equivalent(对等物) _1_Chinas Shanghai，Guangzhou and Beijing.All of these young people were searching for work，for riches，for fame.Few found any of that.The rest joined the masses _2_(work) hard at lowlever jobs trying to support _3_ and their families.Horace Greeley，_4_ editor of a wellknown newspaper，gave sound advice to those seeking work.“Do not lounge in the cities！There is room and health in the country.Go west.”In the mid19th century，_5_Greeley issued his call to go west，America was on the brink(边缘) of developing its _6_(west) regionsmuch _7_China is today.Out west，the unemployed could find jobs._8_ was needed then in America is what is needed now in Chinas western expanses(发展)：men and women _9_(determine) to make something of themselves，men and women with skills any _10_(develop) nation must have to survive and prosper(繁荣)(十五) As I was passing the elephants，I suddenly stopped，_1_(confuse) by the fact that these huge creatures _2_(hold) by only a small rope tied to their front legs.No chains，no cages.It was obvious that the elephant could，at any time，break away from their bonds 3 _ for some reasons，they did not.I saw a trainer nearby and asked _4_ these beautiful magnificent animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away.“Well，” he said，“When they are very young and much _5_(small)，we use the same size rope to tie them and，at that age，its enough to hold them.As they grow up，they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away.They believe _6_ rope can still hold them，so they never try to break free.” I was amazed.These animals could at
