a. it is popular in portugal and spain. b. it causes water shortages around the world. c. it needs water and electricity to keep its courses green. d. it pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes.61. the author uses power walking as an example mainly because _. a. it uses fewer resources. b. it improves our health. c. it is an outdoor sport. d. it is suggested by experts.62. the author writes the passage to _. a. show us the function of major sports b. introduce different types of environment-friendly sports c. discuss the major influence of popular sports d. encourage us to go in for green sportscyou may not pay much attention to your daily elevator ride. many of us use a lift several times during the day without really thinking about it. but lee gray, phd, of the university of north carolina, us, has made it his business to examine this unnoticed form of public transport. he is known as the “elevator guy”. “the lift becomes this interesting social space where behaviors are sort of odd (奇怪的),” gray told the bbc. “they (elevators) are socially very interesting but often very awkward places.” we walk in and usually turn around to face the door. if someone else comes in, we may have to move. and here, according to gray, liftusers unthinkingly go through a set pattern of movements. he told the bbc what he had observed. he explained that when you are the only one inside a lift, you can do whatever you want its your own little box. if there are two of you, you go into different corners, standing diagonally (对角线地) across from each other to create distance. when a third person enters, you will unconsciously form a triangle. and when there is a fourth person it becomes a square, with someone in every corner. a fifth person is probably going to have to stand in the middle. newcomers to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act decisively. once in, for most people the rule is simple look down, or look at your phone. why are we so awkward in lifts? “you dont have enough space,” professor babette renneberg, a clinical psychologist at the free university of berlin, told the bbc. “usually when we meet other people we have about an arms length of distance between us. and thats not possible in most elevators.” in such a small, enclosed space it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be understood as threatening or odd. “the easiest way to do this is to avoid eye contact,” she said.63.the main purpose of the article is to _. a. remind us to enjoy ourselves in the elevator b. analyze what makes people feel awkward in an elevator c. share an interesting but awkward elevator ride d. tell us some unwritten rules of elevator behaviors64. which of the following describes how people usually stand when there are at least two people in an elevator?a.b.c.d.doordoordoordoorthe point in the chart refers to one person. 65. the underlined phrase “size up” in paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to _. a. ignore b. judge c. put up with d. make use of66. according to the article, people feel awkward in lifts because of _. a. the lack of space b. someones strange behaviors c. their unfamiliarity with one another d. their eye contact with one another da shopkeeper sent his son to learn about the secret of happiness from the wisest man in the world. the boy walked a long way, and finally came upon a beautiful castle where the wise man lived. rather than finding a holy man, though, our hero, on entering the main room of the castle, saw a hive of activity: tradesmen came and went, people were chatting in the corners and a small orchestra was playing soft music. the wise man talked with everyone, and the boy had to wait for two hours before it was his turn. the wise man listened carefully to the boys explanation of why he had come, but told him that he didnt have time just then to explain the secret of happiness. he suggested the boy look around the palace and return in two hours. “meanwhile, i want to ask you to do something,” said the wise man, handing the boy a teaspoon that held two drops of oil. “as you wander around, carry this spoon with you without allowing the oil to spill”. the boy began to walk up and down stairs in the palace, keeping his eyes fixed on the spoon. after two hours, he returned. “well,” asked the wise man, “did you see the persian tapestries (波斯织锦) hanging in my dining hall? did you see the garden that it took the master gardener 10 years to create?” the boy was embarrassed, and replied that he had observed nothing. his only concern had been not to spill the oil. “then go back and observe the wonderful things of my world,” said the wise man. then the boy picked up the spoon and returned to his exploration of the palace, this time observing all of the works of art on the ceilings and the walls. he saw the gardens and the mountains all around him. when he returned, he described in detail everything he had seen. “but where are the drops of oil i gave to you?” asked the wise man. looking down at the spoon he held, the boy saw that the oil was gone. “well, there is only one piece of advice i can give you,” said the wise man. “the secret of happiness is to see all the wonders of the world and never to forget the drops of oil on the spoon.” 67. when the shopkeepers son arrived at the castle, he _. a. received warm welcome from the wise man b. didnt expect to see so many people around c. was shown around the palace by the local people d. had already missed his chance to talk to the wise man68. the wise man gave the boy two tasks in order to _. a. let the boy enjoy his palace and garden b. show him how to observe the wonderful things in the world c. make him learn from his mistakes d. teach him the secret of happiness69. we can infer from the article that “the drops of oil on the spoon” probably refer to _. a. the beauty of nature b. the fortune a person owns c. the responsibilities of a person d. the great opportunities in life70. which of the following statements is true according to the article? a. the wise man was satisfied with the way the boy performed the second task b. it took the wise man about 10 years to finish his garden. c. the wise man wasnt paying much attention to the boy at first. d. the boy took no notice of the surroundings during his first task.第二节：下面文章中有5处（第71 75题）需要添加小标题。请从以下选项（a、b、c、 d、e 和 f）中选出符合各段意思的小标题，并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。a .
