But it is good for us to take risks, especially when the risk is to achieve a desired result. In that way, we become stronger and braver.Our human nature should be to take risks, but some people just sit and wish they didnt have the fear to move on. This is because of one or two failures in their lives. Please step out and dont let the past hold you back from living life to the fullest. Move forward and move on!In studying the psychology of taking risks, we find that human nature provides us with the desire to experiment and take chances.Risk taking is a great benefit that allowed our ancestors to become stronger and stronger day by day. By taking risks they fought off enemies and discovered new territories（领土）. This attitude has become a part of our modern culture. Riding a roller coaster is a common risk taking activity that even the average person seems to enjoy although they have the understanding that it is dangerous. This psychological and biological (生物学上的) connection creates an interesting connection between what is unsafe and what humans enjoy.Getting in a car each day is a risk. Getting out of bed is a risk. There is no such thing as perfect safety. We need to take risks so that we can complete (finish) many things. Astronauts take risks when they get inside a rocket; however, the things they achieve are great. Businessmen take a risk when they buy parts of a company. However, without doing that, they could not make more money. We need to take risks so that we can gain something. It is impossible to move forward in life, earn money, enjoy a relationship, play a sport, or do anything else without taking a risk. It is all part of the game. Its one of the most important parts of life.56.Some people dont want to take risks, mainly because _. A. they are too lazy to move on. B. they feel pleased with the present life. C. they have experienced some failures before. D. they show little interest in the strange world outside.57. What does the underlined part “This attitude” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Taking risks B. Fighting off enemies C. Discovering new territories D. Becoming stronger and stronger58. What can we infer from the passage? A. Daily life is full of risks. B. The safest place has the greatest risk. C. People should take risks when they are young. D. We can always achieve our goals by taking risks.59. What would be the title for the passage? A. Taking risks is easier said than done B. On risks taken by ancestors C. Live our life to the fullest D. No risk, no gainBOne thing that every dog needs to know how to do is sit. Teaching a dog to sit is probably the easiest trick in the book. Dogs learn to sit by praise. You must first introduce them to what sitting is.Gently place your hand over the top part of their bottoms and gently push down. Once you have got them into the sitting position, say “sit”. Now, make sure that they have sat down and give them a treat for praise. Wait a while before doing it again because each time you do it, you will be rewarding them for it.Using treats while training your dog to sit will help him or her learn a lot more easily. He or she might think, “Okay I get it, so when I sit, I get a treat!” So in the beginning, give your dog a treat every time they sit. At first, when you are training your dog to sit, they will feel puzzled. This is very normal because sitting is new to them. Dogs favor routine(常规), and once sitting becomes a part of their daily routine, it will be something that they truly enjoy doing for their owners when asked.Young dogs are often the easiest to train to sit. Sitting is a simple and easy command that can be taught to any dog. Older dogs may learn a bit more slowly, but this is simply because they have got into much more of a routine. Do not think that your older dog cannot learn how to sit. It just takes time.If you are having a seemingly difficult time teaching your dog to sit, you may need to go to your nearest library and rent a book on your particular dog family. Different dogs have different tempers(脾气). What is normal of one dog may not be so true for others. There are many things that will decide whether your dog has an easy time learning how to sit, but most of it will be up to you.60. The most important thing in training a dog is _. A. trick B. praise C. order D. treat61. Young dogs are easier to train to sit because _. A. they are cleverer than older dogs B. they havent got into much of a routine C. they are different from old dogs in temper D. they enjoy doing what their owners tell them to62. We can know from the text that _. A. dogs, whether young or old, can be taught to sit only B. dogs will sit when their owners pat them on the head C. owners do not play an important part in training dogs to sit D. different dogs should be treated differently when taught to sit63. This text is probably taken from _. A. a travel journal B. a TV guidance C. a book about pets D. a research reportCBritish men are encouraged to cry.There are certain things British men like to believe about themselves. The first is that one day they will again win the World Cup. They also believe they do not cry. Over the centuries, Britons are believed to have a stiff upper lip. But is this true?Yes, it is. A recent study arranged by Kleenex on how the British express their emotions reveals that 95 percent of them still contain their emotions. Moreover, while 72 percent think this is unhealthy, 19 percent cant remember the last time they let it out. As a result, Kleenex is launching the Let It Out campaign that encourages Brits to grab a tissue and have a good cry. These days, however, the male Britons attitude toward crying is changing. Though the majority still struggles to open up emotionally, a 2004 study by Oxfords Social Issues Research Center found that 77 percent of British men considered crying in public increasingly acceptable. Half of London males admitted crying in front of their mothers. Scotsmen are the least emotional, although they are the most likely to cry at weddings. Peter Marsh, director of the center, said, “Crying can now indicate sensitivity rather than weakness. Like with David Beckham, crying because youre dropping off your boy at nursery isnt seen as weak.” Winston Churchill was said to be a frequent crier, shedding tears at seeing a survivor in an air raid shelter（防空洞）, and when he saw his wife after a long absence. Psychologists say that while society has accepted that men can cry, there are limits. Ronald Bracey, a consulting psychologist, said, “If a man began to cry when he was having stitches（缝针）in hospital, he would be considered as a wimp（软弱的人）. Men still need to be seen as strong when it comes to physical pain. ” 64. What does the passage mainly deal with?A. Different attitudes British men have towards crying. B. British mens dream of the World Cup. C. Advice on how to control emotions. D. Impression of British men.65. Which of the following concerning the British men is NOT true according to the passage?A. They are supposed to easily control emotions over the centuries. B. They are confident that they will again get successful in the World Cup. C. Nowadays, the male Britons attitude toward crying is changing.D. About 50% of Britons admitted crying before their mothers.66. The underlined word “contain” in paragraph 3 means _. A. store B. include C. hold back D. possessDWhen I stepped out the plane from Miami into Charlotte, North Carolina, airport for a connecting flight home, I immediately knew something was wrong. Lots of desperate people crowded the terminal. I quickly learned that flights headed to the Northeast were called off because of a storm. The earliest they could get us out of Charlotte was Tuesday. It was Friday. A gate agent stood on the counter and shouted, “Dont ask us for help! We cannot help you!”I joined a crowd that ran from terminal to terminal in search of a flight out. Eventually, I found six strangers willing to rent a van with me. We drove through the night to Washingto
