plants were growing out of the roofs, and trees were growing in the courtyards. today, the temple is the scene of a busy repair program. a team of 15 indian experts are organizing a workforce of 400 cambodians, most of them women, who are cleaning, repairing and rebuilding parts of this temple. as i walked through the courtyards, i noticed the cambodian women devote hours to cleaning carefully a tiny area of stone. boards are laid down to protect the precious painted stones while the repair work is going on. there are very few machines and little heavy equipment. workers carry building materials in buckets at the end of long poles. piles of stones lie in a corner of the courtyard, waiting to be replaced. the work of cleaning the stones is watched over by three indian chemists. it is a very slow work starts every day at 7 a. m. and goes on until late afternoon six days a week, with a break at midday. evening is the best time to visit the temple, after the tour groups have left. as

when you think of forgiveness, you probably dont think of it as being a health or medical problem. studies from stanford university, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.when cartoon book characters like the incredible hulk get angry, they change colours and often gain special power. in the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. thats why professor fred luskin, founder of the stanford forgiveness project and author of forgive for good, says holding on to anger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. two new studies seem to show the same idea.the studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression(抑郁). they also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.so it doesnt matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. learning to let it go is important. techniques such as deep breath or thought can help. or just ask yourself if its worth hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else. forgiveness does not mean that you simply accept what happened and say its ok. instead, its a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past. 【小题1】the author of the passage tries to make his viewpoint clear_.a. by raising his own examplesb. based on his own experiencec. by mentioning some studies d. by mentioning some typical patients【小题2】the example of the cartoon book characters is taken in the passage to_.a. support the viewpoint that anger and hatred harm physical and mental healthb. introduce a famous expertc. let the reader know the different colours of cartoon facesd. show how to control ones temper【小题5】 the best title for this passage is probably_. a. forgiveness b. forgiveness is good for healthc. a secret to keeping health d. anger is bad for health【答案】【小题1】c【小题2】a【小题3】b【小题4】d【小题5】b【解析】donce upon a time, there was a lovely vegetable field, on which grew a very thick tree. both the vegetables and the tree gave the place a wonderful appearance, which was the joy of the gardens owner. what no one knew was that the vegetables in the field and the tree couldnt stand each other. the vegetables hated the trees shadow, because it left them only just enough light to survive. the tree, on the other hand, hated the vegetables because they drank nearly all the water before it could get to him, leaving him with just enough to survive.the situation became so extreme that the vegetables got totally fed up and decided to use up all the water in the ground so that the tree would dry up. the tree answered back by refusing to give the vegetables shadow from the hot midday sun, so they both began to dry up. before long, the vegetables were really thin and the trees branches were drying up.neither of them thought that the gardener, on seeing his vegetable field becoming worse, would stop watering it. when he did that, both the tree and the vegetables really learned what thirst was. there seemed to be no solution, but one of the vegetables, a small courgette（小胡瓜）, understood what was going on, and decided to deal with it. despite the little water and the unbearable heat, the little courgette did all he could to grow, grow. he managed to grow so big that the gardener started watering the field again. the gardener wanted to enter that beautiful big courgette in some gardening contest.they should really learn how to live in harmony（和谐）with those around them, doing the best they could. so they decided to work together, and help each other instead of fighting, using both the shadow and the water in the best combination to grow good vegetables. seeing how well they were doing, the gardener now gave the best of care to his vegetable field, watering it better than any other field for miles around.【小题3】what drew the gardens owners attention to the field again?a. some gardening contests. b. the fight between plants.c. the big and beautiful courgette.d. the wonderful appearance in the garden.【小题4】what was out of the expectation of the tree and vegetables?a. that the gardener stopped watering them.b. that the courgette understood what was happening.c. that they could live together.d. that they could take part in the contest.【小题5】 how can one live in harmony with others according to the passage?a. by working together and helping each other.b. by learning to be thankful.c. by respecting others and oneself.d. by learning to stop being angry with others.第二节 信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）请阅读所给相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。首先， 请阅读下面几个网站的介绍：a. if you are a
