With each passing day everyone became more 36 , waiting for the final school bell. Upon its 37 , everyone would run for their coats and go home except David.David was a small boy in ragged （破旧的）clothes. I had often 38 what kind of home life David had, and what kind of mother could send her son to school dressed so 39 for the cold winter months, without a coat, boots or gloves. But something made David 40 . I can still remember he was always 41 a smile and willing to help. He always 42 after school to straighten chairs and sweep the floor. We never talked much. He 43 just simply smile and ask what else he could do, then thank me for letting him stay and slowly 44 home.Weeks passed and the 45 over the coming Christmas grew into restlessness（骚动不安）until the last day of 46 before the holiday break.

He burned most of them, because he didnt like old things very much, But one of these papers was an old letter. At the bottom(底部) of the letter was the name of a well-known writer. “When this letter was written,” said Grant, “no one knew about the writer. But now everyone knows him. Some people like to buy letters like this. I may be able to get much money for the letter if I sell it to the right man.”But there were a lot of dirty marks all over the letter.“It doesnt look nice,” he thought. “No one wants to buy a letter if its dirty. Ill have to clean it.”So he took a piece of cloth and some water and cleaned the letter. He worked hard and gave a lot of care. At last the letter looked better. And he was very pleased with his work.“Now it looks nice,” he said to himself. “Ill be able to sell it for a lot of money.”He took the letter to a shop in London where old papers of this kind were bought and sold.“I want to sell this letter,” Grant said to the man in the shop. “It was written by a well-known writer. You know about these things. How much will you give me for it?”The man looked at him for a long time.“I will give you two pounds for it,” he said at last.“Only two pounds!” said Grant. “But people pay ten pounds for a letter like this. And just look! Ive even cleaned it to make it look nice.”“I can see that,” said the man. “Thats the trouble. People who buy old papers like them to be dirty.”56.Which of the following is not right?A. Grant found a box of old letters.B. Grant didnt like old things very much.C. Grant didnt burn the old letter.D. The letter was written by a famous writer.57.Grant didnt burn the letter because_.A. it was written by his fatherB. he thought he could get much money by selling itC. he wanted to keep it foreverD. he wanted to give it to the government58.In order to sell it, Grant decided to _ first.A. make advertisement(广告)in the newspapersB. show it to others around himC. clean it to make it look niceD. take it to an archeologist(考古学家)59.Grant didnt sell the letter at a good price because_.A. it was not an old letterB. few people knew about the writerC. it had been cleanedD. the man didnt like itBYou feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving. If you give and give without making time to fill your own needs, then its likely you will burn out, or feel upset. When you take and take without giving anything back, you never feel fulfilled, so you are always searching for ways to fill the void in your life.The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving is to know and then live by your values. I break values up into two groups which I call being and having values. Your being values are the personalities of the ideal person you would like to be. I suggest to my clients that they choose three being values that they are willing to make a promise to live by. An example of some being values are: kind, loving, generous, peaceful, wise and even powerful. By acting on these values you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by being a positive role model. Mastering being these personalities becomes your life purpose.Your having values are the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be companionship, achievement, support, being valued or financial security. This is what you receive. You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life.When you make a promise to live by your being values, it becomes easier to make conscious(慎重的) choices rather than reactionary(反动的) ones. If your usual pattern is to talk about your problems, you could choose to think and act like a calm person. A calm person might go for a walk, or set a time limit before responding. If your usual pattern is to worry, you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person. In other words, you would act like the person you choose to bethis is the key to personal power.When you choose to act on your values, you not only feel good about yourself, you strengthen your chosen beliefs. Over time acting in this way changes how you see the world, and in turn the way other people think of you.60The main purpose of this passage is to .Apersuade the readers to make a promise Bexplain to the readers what personal values areCinform the readers how to be truly happy Dinstruct the readers how to make wise choices61According to the text, living by your being values, you would .Again a lot of power Bform positive personalityCseek all human virtues Dfill your own needs62The underlined word “void” in Paragraph 1 means .Aa feeling of emptiness Ban absence of ones mindCa break of continuity Da state of confusion63What can be inferred from the text?AHaving values are better than being values. BA calm person does not choose to complain.CThe way other people think of you decides who you are. DA responsible person does not care about financial security.CMany textbooks are not written in the kind of English that we speak every day. In fact, sometimes the reading is so difficult that it almost seems like a foreign language. In a way, it is the language of science. You should not expect to be able to read a difficult science passage the same way you read an interesting story; you should not expect to read it easily and all at once. Instead, you may have to read it several times through catching on the meaning of difficult words, going back over difficult sentences, and finally putting the whole thing together. Do not be discouraged if the whole passage dont make sense to you at first. You need to pick it apart patiently until you can understand it.These are the steps to follow when you are reading something difficult: 1. Start to read normally until you run into a sentence that doesnt make sense to you. 2. When a sentence doesnt make sense, go back and read it again more slowly. 3. Look for any word you dont know in the sentence. Try to understand their meanings using word parts and context clues(上下文线索). If necessary, look them up in the dictionary. 4. Look at the next few sentences to see if they explain more about the sentence you are working on. Do not read very much farther ahead until you understand what is being said. 5. Finally, read the sentence again. Try to put it into simpler words. 6. Read through the passage once. Try to understand all the hard parts well. Then read the whole passage once more at a usual speed. This helps you to put all ideas together.The steps sound a lot harder than they are. It is really just the normal way good readers understand anything that is difficult to read. After you have done the best you can this way, you should always feel free to ask for help from your teacher, if you have one.64. The underlined phrase “run into” means _.A. work out B. come across C. look into D. pass by65.From the passage, we can know _.A. we should look up new words before readingB. it is sometimes difficult to read a science passageC. the six steps are helpful in learning spoken English D. interesting stories help readers to improve their English 66.The massage is mainly about _.A. steps of studying science B. difficulties in reading scienceC. ways of reading science passages D. researches on science and English DYoure sitting on the train home and the person opposite you yawns(打哈欠). Suddenly, youre yawning with him, though youre not tired. This phenomenon confused scientists for years until a recent study found that people tend to sympathize with fellow humans. Supporting this claim was the discovery that those children who were unable to form normal emotional ties with others did not experience contagions(有感染力的) yawning, which showed that humans communicate regularly without words. Hogo Critchley, a neuroscientist, has conducted an experiment recently, which will prove that happiness and sadness can spread like the common cold. According to Critchley, our mind and body are in constant exchange about how were feeling. “Emotions are closely linked with states of internal(内部的)responses, ”he explained. “There are also more visible changes in our gesture and facial expressions. When were in a group, these signals can spread to another person. For example, theres the obvious tendency to smile when smiled at and there are less obvious changes that reflect emotions of surprise, anger or sadness such as a change in our heart rate and blood pressure. ”Hugo Critchley further explained, “Our bodies synchronize and when we like the other person, we even copy his behivour. Next time you chat with a friend, take note of how youre sitting-its pretty likely that you will be the same. Scientists believe its our way of telling each other that were partners. Through body language, huma
