disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts and rejections with it.many weight-conscious people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything. perhaps our worst mistake is believing that being thin equals being loved, being special, and being cherished. we fantasize about what it will be like when we reach the long-awaited goal. we work very hard to realize this dream. then, at last, we find ourselves there. but we often gain back what we have lost. even so, we continue to believe that next time it will be different. next time, we will keep it off. next time, being thin will finally fulfill its promise of everlasting happiness, self-worth, and, of course, love.it took me a long while to realize that there was something more for me to learn about beauty. beauty standards vary with culture. in samoa a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds. more importantly, if its happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? why not look inside? many of us strive hard to change our body, but in vain. we have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves. when we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.56. what does the underlined word “everything” in paragraph 2 mean?a. all the problems.b. all the properties.c. the whole world.d. the absolute truth.57. what can be inferred about the author?a. the author is a samoan.b. the author succeeded losing weight.c. the author has been troubled by her weight.d. the author probably got wounded in an accident.58. according to the text, those who have lost weight first and gained it back later feel _.a. angry about the regained weight b. indifferent to the regained weightc. optimistic about future plans on weight controld. they should give up their future plans on weight control59. the text tries to stress the importance of _.a. body size b. attitudes toward life c. culture difference d. different beauty standardsbwhats delicious to eat and comes in a variety of colors? eggplant! and no, it has nothing to do with chickens! this strangely named vegetable is, however, as versatile as an eggit can be steamed, fried, and bakedit can be eaten by itself or combined with meats and other vegetableseggplant was first grown in india in the 5th century bcits popularity soon spread to china and then throughout asiafinally, during the middle ages the vegetable made its way to europeat that time, eggplant was not the shiny purple vegetable most people know todayinstead, its like a white eggdue to this egg-like appearance, eggplant got its namein its early days, the vegetable was so bitter that people often called it a “mad apple.” this nickname started because people believed its bitterness was bad for ones healthpeople actually thought eggplant could cause madness and cancerfortunately today people know that eggplant doesnt cause insanity or cancerin fact eggplant is so healthy that it may prevent cancerin addition, the brain and the heart benefit from this super vegetablesince its high in fibre, eggplant can improve digestionitaly, turkey, egypt, china and japan are the leading growers of eggplant in the world todaydepending on its location, eggplant may be purple, green, orange or yellow-whiteand it can be as small as a tomato

young people sometimes take a gap year, a year off between high school and college. this idea never gained a big following in america. recent news reports have suggested that interest may be growing , though there are no official numbers.charles deacon, dean of admissions at georgetown university in washington, dc estimate that in the current first-year class of 1600 students, only about 25 decided to take a year off. he says this number hasnt changed much over the years.mr. deacon says the most common reason for taking a gap year is to have a chance to travel, but he says international students may take a gap year to meet requirements at home for military duty.some high school graduates see a year off as a chance to recover after twelve years of required education, but it can also give students a chance to explore their interests. students hoping to be doctors, for example, could learn about the profession by volunteering in a hospital.many colleges and universities support gap-year projects by permitting students to delay their admission. experts say students can grow emotionally and intellectually as they work at something they enjoy.the harvard admissions office has an essay on its web site called “time out or burn out for the next generation.” it praises the idea of taking time off to step back, think and enjoy gaining life experiences outside the pressure of studies. it also notes that students are sometimes admitted to harvard or other colleges partly because they did something unusual with that time.of course, a gap year is not for everyone. students might miss their friends who go on directly to college, and parents might worry that their children will decide not to go to college once they take time off. another concern is money. a year off, away from home, can be costly.holly bulls job is to specialize in helping students plan their gap year. she notes that several books have been written about this subject. she says these books along with media attention and the availability of information on the internet have increased interest in the idea of a year off, and she points out that many gap-year programs cost far less than a year of college.64. what is the passage mainly about?a. if you want to go to an american university, take a gap year first.b. more and more american students are choosing to take a year off.c. it is likely that taking a gap year is becoming popular in america.d. americans hold different opinions towards students taking a gap year.65. how many reasons for students taking a gap year are mentioned in passage?a. 2 b. 3 c. 4 d. 566. the essay “time out or burn out for the next generation” suggests that_.a. every student must take a gap year before applying for a famous universityb. some famous universities encourage students to gain more life experiencesc. taking a gap year can make students free from life learning d. the stress of studies does harm to the students healthda new study suggests that the round-the-clock availability that cell phones have brought to peoples lives may take a toll on family life. the study，which followed more than 1,300 adults over 2 years, found that those who consistently used a mobile phone throughout the study period were more likely to report negative “spillover” between work and home lifeand，in turn，less satisfaction with their family life.spillover essentially(本质上)means that the line between work and home begins to become unclear. work life may invade home life when a parent is taking job related calls at home，for instanceor family issues may start to take up work time. for example，a child may call mum at work，telling her “microwave exploded”，explained noelle chesley，an assistant professor of sociology at the university of wisconsin milwaukee and the author of the study. the problem with cell phones seems to be that they are allowing for even more spillover between work and home.this may be especially true for working women，the study found. among men，consistent use of mobile phones seemed to allow more work issues to creep (潜入)into family time. but for women，the spillover tended to go in both directions. being “connected” meant that work cut into home time，and family issues came into work life.cell phones seem to be opening more lines for stressful exchanges among family members. but there may be ways to control the spillover，according to chesley. employers, she said，could look at their policies on contacting employees after hours to make sure their expectations are “reasonable”for their part，employees could decide that cell phones go off during family time, chesley said.67. what does the underlined phrase “take a toll on” probably mean in paragraph 1?a. explaining. b. founding. c. extending d. damaging.68. according to chesley，what is the best solution to the problem caused by cell phones?a separate work hours from family time.b. refuse to use cell phones.c. ignore coming calls during family time.d. encourage women to stay at home.69. we can learn from the passage that _.a. cell phones affect men as much as womenb. cell phones seem to be convenient to familiesc. cell phones make the line between work and home unclear d. we can do nothing to solve the problem70. what is the main idea of the passage?a. how to control the neg
