For many people, winter depression, the most common type of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), is much a part of the season as hats and scarves. Winter serious SAD sufferers may need medical treatment. Those feeling a little blue can help themselves by sticking to a healthy lifestyle. Here are some tips. Pace yourself. Dont expect to do everything you normally can. Set a realistic schedule. Dont listen to negative thinking, like blaming yourself or expecting to fail. Get involved in activities that make you feel good or feel like youve achieved something. For example, play table tennis or badminton. If you are feeling depressed, you may feel like staying away from friends. Yet this is a time when friends support can be helpful. Call them regularly. Remember, the more we put off calling or visiting a friend, the harder it is to rebuild a friendship. Think clearly about whats wrong or right. Instead of giving in to vague feelings of sadness, look at your problems objectively. Break down problems into specific issues that you can work on. Regular exercise helps to prevent and ease depression. Eat well. Studies show that a healthy diet can help to maintain a healthy body and mind. The vitamins, minerals and micro-nutrients found in a balanced diet may help our bodies to produce feel-good hormones. Foods containing chemicals to help produce feel-good hormones include bananas, turkey, nuts and seeds. Eat at least five pieces of fruit and vegetables every day. 60.

Generally forbidden by law in earlier days, the fighting was usually done with bare fists, and matches often lasted forty or fifty rounds.In 1882 John L. Sullivan, a fighter of great power, won the world heavyweight championship from Paddy Ryan in a bare fisted battle marked by hitting, scratching, and biting without any rule. Five years later, while fighting Patsy Cardiff at Minneapolis, Sullivan broke his right arm in the third round, but he continued fighting to the sixth round and won. In 1889, Sullivan defeated Jade Kilrain with his bare fists in another championship fight, winning twenty thousand dollars and a diamond prize medal. His admirers talked then of running him for the next governor, but he traveled to Australia for a boxing tour instead, coming back only to lose his title in a twenty-one-round match with a young Californian named James J. Corbett.“Gentleman James” victory in this match marked a turning point, for it showed scientific boxing was over strength. But Corbetts title ended in 1897, when another boxer, Bob Fitzsimmons, in less than three seconds, achieved his feats and then Fitzsimmons knocked out an Irishman, won the heavyweight championship of the world, and invented the terrible “solar plexus punch.”68. Boxing matches in the early days were _.A. short and bloody B. usually spare-time competitions C. governed by strict rules D. cruel69.

Sullivan was so popular that his admirers _.A. encouraged him to be a governorB. raised twenty thousand dollars for himC. advised him to take boxing tour of AustraliaD. refused to believe he could be defeatedE“It hurts me more than you”, and “This is for your own good” these are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, clean my room, stay home and do homework.That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy for us. They taught that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing weve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Clomps who says of her students“so passive” and wonders what has happened. Nothing is demanded of them, she believes. Television, says Clomps, contributes to childrens passivity. “Were talking about a generation of kids who ve never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them, instead of saying go and look it up, you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say no to a kid.”Yes, it does. It takes energy and it takes work. Its time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work. It s time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but it s for their own good. Its s time to start telling them no again.72. Children are becoming more inactive in study because _A. they watch TV too often B. they have done too much homeworkC. they have to fulfill too many duties D. teachers are too strict with them73. We learn from the passage that the authors mother used to lay emphasis on _A. learning Latin B. discipline C. natural development D. education at school74. By “permissive period in education” (L.1, Para.2) the author means a time _.A. when children are allowed to do what they wish toB. when everything can be taught at schoolC. when every child can be educatedD. when children are permitted to receive education75. The main idea of the passage is that _.A. parents should leave their children aloneB. kids should have more activities at schoolC. its time to be more strict with our kidsD. parents should always set a good example to their kids第四节：任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）Have you heard or read stories about people who are sick and have been healed by listening to music?
