what you get.” my grandfather used to say: “if you looked at a tree long enough, it will move.” we see what we want to see. psychologists tell us that _21_ controls our lives more than our self-image.

want to change your life, you must change your vision of your life. arnold schwarzenegger was not _25_ famous in 1976 when he met with a newspaper reporter. the reporter asked schwarzenegger: “now that youve _26_ from bodybuilding, what do you plan to do next? schwarzenegger answered very calmly and _27_: “im going to be the best movie star in hollywood.“ the reporter was _28_ and amused at schwarzeneggers plan. at that time, it was very hard to _29_ how this muscle-bound bodybuilder, who was not a _30_ actor and who spoke poor english _31_ a strong austrian accent, could ever hope to be hollywoods movie star! so the reporter asked schwarzenegger how he planned to make his dream come true, schwarzenegger said: “ill do it the same way i became the best _32_ in the world. what i do was to _33_ a vision of who i want to be, and _34_ i start living like that person in my mind _35_ it were already true.” sounds almost childishly simple, doesnt it? but it _36_! schwarzenegger did become

第二部分：阅读理解（第一节20小题，第二节5小题；每小题2分，满分50分）第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c、d）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。 aamy chua may well be verynuts. what kind of a mother will drag her then 7-year-old daughters dollhouse out to the car and tell her that it is going to be donated if the poor kid doesnt master a difficult piano composition by the next day? what kind of a mother will inform her daughter that she is nothing but “garbage”? and what kind of mother will believe, as chua tells readers, that “an a- is not always a good grade”? the only activities her children should be permitted to do are those in which they can eventually win a medal, which must be gold.what kind of a mother she is? why, a mother who is raising her kids in the typical chinese way, rather than the western way. in her new book, battle hymn of the tiger mother, chua tells her adventures in chinese parenting, and sonuts as she may be she is also mesmerizing (迷惑的). chuas voice is that of a happy, knowledgeable serial killer think hannibal lecter whos explaining how hes going to cut his next victim, as though its the most self-evidently normal behavior. there is another attractive aspect of battle hymn of the tiger mother. there are methods to chuas madness, enough method to stir up self-doubt in those readers who support the more educating parenting styles. it is trusted that battle hymn of the tiger mother is going to be a book club and parenting blog phenomenon; there will be fevered debate over chuas tough love strategies, which include unchangeable bans on such western indulgences (纵容) as sleepovers, play dates, and any after class activities except practicing musical instruments, which must be limited between the violin or the piano.the back story to chuas book is this she is the daughter of a couple of chinese immigrants and is now a professor at yale law school and the author of two best-selling “big-think” books on “free-market democracy” and “the fall of empires”. when chua married her husband, her fellow yale law professor and a novelist jed rubenfeld, they agreed that their children would be brought up in “the chinese way,” in which punishingly hard work, enforced by parents produces excellence; excellence, in turn, produces satisfaction. the success of this strategy is hard to debate. their older daughter is a piano talent who played at carnegie hall when she was 14 or so. the second, a more rebellious (叛逆的) daughter, lulu, is a gifted violinist. chua rode the girls hard, making sure they practiced at least three hours a day even on vacations, when she would call ahead to arrange access to practice in hotel lobby bars and basement storage rooms. chua also rarely refrained (抑制) from criticizing her daughters. she explains: chinese parents can do things that would seem unimaginable to westerners. chinese mothers can say to their daughters, “hey so fatty, lose some weight.” by contrast, western parents have to tiptoe around the issue, talking in terms of health and never ever mentioning the f-word, and their kids still end up in treatment for eating disorders and negative self-image. . western parents are concerned about their childrens minds. chinese parents arent. they assume strength, not weakness, and as a result they behave very differently. 41. the underlined word “nuts” in the first and second paragraphs most probably means _.a. intelligent b. crazy c. difficult d. eager42. which of the following practices are tough love strategies except _.a. children must get a medal if they attend a competitionb. children should practice piano even on holidays.c. children are indulged to sleepover, play dates, etc.d. children are called “garbage” or “fatty”43. whats the writers purpose of using the example of “weight problem”？a. to show chinese parents can do unimaginable things.b. to make a comparison between western and chinese mothers.c. to make us believe the western way of parenting is much better. d. to show that chinese mothers care more about their children. 44. from the passage we can learn that chuas way of parenting is _.a. widely acceptable b. very traditional c. quite controversial d. out of date 45. which is the main idea of the passage?a. the chinese way of parenting has its advantages.b. battle hymn of the tiger mother is a best seller.c. the westerners are not good at raising children. d. tiger mothers raise their children in the chinese way. b eat your way to fitness on a global dietzhang wuben, a self-made diet expert in beijing, who was once respected across the nation, now finds himself in disgrace. he sold millions of books by claiming that mung beans (绿豆) and eggplant could cure many diseases but it has been discovered that he faked his credentials (资历). so you might think twice about looking to food as a source of health or healing. however, some beliefs have proved their scientific merit over centuries of practice. for example, butter milk and yogurt were used to treat a fungus (真菌) infection of the mouth, before the invention of fungicides. fresh fruit was used to treat scurvy before the “invention” of vitamins. many generations of people drank warm milk before bed time to help them sleep soundly.food can help a patient in several ways because it provides nutrients needed by a sick person in a form he or she can use and it also provides nutrients for people who lack them. different regions and nations have their own healthy diet recipes. lets take a look at some of the most famous ones.mediterranean dieta study conducted in the us has found that people on a mediterranean diet, which includes large quantities of fruit and vegetables, lower their risk of death from both heart disease and cancer. people in the mediterranean region usually consume very little red meat, such as pork or beef. instead they eat a lot of fish and shellfish. nuts are another part of a healthy mediterranean diet. tree nuts, including walnuts, pecans (山核桃), almond (杏仁) and hazel nuts , are low in saturated (饱和的) fat.japanese dietthe japanese are known to enjoy one of the longest life expectancies in the world. the emphasis of their diet is on small portions of fresh seasonal food. people value quality over quantity, and eat slowly so as to fully appreciate the flavours of the food and reach a feeling of satisfaction with less food. fresh fruit is the preferred dessert.french dietthe french eat rich foods, drink lots of wine and smoke, but they are still thin and fit. what are their secrets?the french get most of their fat from dairy and vegetable sources, such as whole milk, cheese and whole milk yogurt. instead of snacks, they drink herbal (药草的) tea or water between meals. ctraditional surgical operations require surgeons to make large incisions (伤口) in a patients body in order to gain access to the internal organs. it was once common for heart surgeons, who perform highly specialized and complex operations, to make long incisions in a patients chest and then split the breastbone to reach the heart. patients who undergo surgery are often at the risk of infection, as bacteria can infect the cut in the skin. in addition, there is often a lengthy recovery period.a surgical technique known as “keyhole surgery” has become more common in recent years. in general, the surgeon will make a couple of small incisions around the area where the operation is going to be performed. tubes are pushed into the holes, and a tiny camera, which is called an endoscope, is put into the body. the camera is attached to a large monitor screen so that the doctor can see it while he performs the operation. in addition to the camera, doctors also push their tiny surgical instruments through the tubes. the awkward part of keyhole surgery is that it is counterintuitive; that is to say, if a surgeon wants to move the tool to the left, he or she must push it to the right.other advancements in technology are also being used today in the operation room. a new machine called the “da vinci surgical system” has been tested in hospitals in the u.s. unlike keyhole surgery, the da vincis robots moving parts are designed to imitate the natural hand and wrist movement of a surgeon, thus providing better control and sensitivity. the system is controlled by a surgeon from a console (控制台). sitting at a console a few feet from the patient, the surgeon can perform an operation by holding and moving highly sensitive pads that enable him or her to control the instruments. the area of the body on which the surgeon is working is enlarged on a screen, which is attached to the console. this gives surgeons a realistic three-dimensional view of the area similar to what they would see during a traditional surgical procedure.although the da vinci surgical system is undergoing some trials for some operations, it has been welcomed as revolutionary by many surgeons. patients with serious illnesses must still undergo major surgery, but the smaller incisions typically mean that a shorter recovery time is needed.50. what can be learned about the traditional surgery according to the passage?a. the cost of the traditional surgery is very high. b. it often leaves a large wound in a persons body.c. long incisions are made in a patients chest.d. the incision is often infected after the operation.51. which of the following is one of the disadvantages of keyhole surgery?a. it requires the use of long, thin tools and a tiny camera.b. the doctor can not view the inside of the patients body clearly.c. the direction in which a doctor moves the surgical tools is opposite.d. an endoscope has to be inserted into the patients body in advance.52. the da vinci surgical system differs from keyhole surgery in that _.a. requires that a surgeon make more small incisions on a patientb. reduces the amount of time it takes to perform a surgical procedurec. allows the surgeon to use the surgical instruments more sensitivelyd. eliminates the need for surgeons to make large incisions on patients53. the passage mainly tells the reader _.a. the challenges brought about by new technology b. the benefits and drawbacks of the da vinci surgical systemc. the reflections on the development in medical scienced. the application of new technologies in modern surgery54.where can you possibly find the above passage?a. in a popular science magazine. b. in a medical equipment advertisement.c. in a daily newspaper. d. in a textbook for medical students. dmost of us spend our lives seeking the natural world. to this end, we walk the dog, play golf, go fishing, sit in the garden, drink outside rather than inside the pub, have a picnic, live in the suburbs, go to the seaside, buy a weekend place in the country. the most popular free time activity in britain is going for a walk. and when joggers jog, they dont run the streets. every one of them automatically heads to the park or the river. it is my firm belief that not only do we all need nature, but we all seek nature, whether we know we are doing so or not.but despite this, our children are growing up nature-deprived (丧失). i spent my boyhood climbing trees. these days, children are robbed of these ancient freedoms, due to problems like crime, traffic, the loss of the open spaces and strange new ideas about what is best for children, that is to say, things that can be bought, rather than things that can be found.the truth is to be found elsewhere. a study in the us: families had moved to better housing and the children were assessed for adhd (多动症). those whose housing had more natural views showed an improvement of 19%; those who had the same improvement in material surroundings but no nice view improved just 4%.a study in sweden indicated that kindergarten children who could play in a natural environment had less illness and greater physical ability than children used only to a normal playground. a us study suggested that when a school gave children access to a natural environment, the entire school would do better in studies.another study found that children play differently in a natural environment. in playgrounds, children create a hierarchy (等级) based on physical abilities, with the tough ones taking the lead. but when a grassy area was planted with bushes, the children got muc
