I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it is that most city people - myself included - usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors. My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life. I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest house with no electricity or running hot water. Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply. Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fiber-glass. We have television,cell phones, electricity, heaters and ovens and air-conditioners, cars, computers. Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I thought, “Before long, I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains. And perhaps write, but not in anger. I may become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touched the moon.”60. The best title for the passage would be _.A. Break away from Modern life B. Touched by the Moon C. A Bottomless well of SilenceD.The Pleasures of Modern Life61. The writer felt sorry for himself because _.A. there was too much pollution.B. there were too many accidents on the road.C. he didnt adapt to modern inventionsD. he failed to see the fullest moon.62.

The author wrote the passage to _.A.show the love for the moonlight.B. express the feeling of returning to nature.C. advise modern people to learn to live.D. want to communicate longing for modern life.CFour Simple Keys to Transform Your LifeThe Power of ChoiceEvery one of us makes countless choices every dayEvery choice we make has an impact on our livesEven insignificant choices can affect what we experience and how we feelWhen hunger strikes, we can reach for a healthy, nutritious snack, or we can choose the sugar high of junk foodThe more important the decision, the greater its effectFor instance, how do I act towards that person who treated me badly? Do I generally choose to be passive, or do I actively set clear intentions and create what I want in my life? Every choice we make, however big or small, affects us in some wayHow Do You Make Choices? If you are interested in living a richer, fuller life, there is a foundation upon which you can base all of your decisions which can make life better not only for you, but also for those around youThis foundation is to choose based on whats best for allImagine a world where every parent, spouse（配偶）, friend, teacher, businessperson, and politician truly did their best to choose whats best for all involved in every decision they made We would certainly live in a more caring, supportive worldIts the IntentionBut how do I know what is really best? you might askThe answer is simpleIt doesnt matterWhat matters is not the choice you make, but rather the intention behind your choiceWhat matters is that whatever decision you make, you are clear in your intention of choosing based on whats best for allIf it later turns out that you made what appears to have been a bad choice, theres no need for guiltKnowing that you did your best to choose with a sincere desire for whats best for all, your conscience stays clear and openThis then allows you to more easily learn from your mistakes, and to live with a clear heart and mindWhats Best for Me, Too! Choosing whats best does not mean you have to always sacrifice yourself for othersAn overly(过度的) exhausted mother can lose her temper easilySome time off for this mother might seem selfish, yet in the long run, it can help her to be a better mother to her childrenSo as we move through each day of our lives, let us remember to include ourselves as we do our best to choose whats best for all64Which of the following is FALSE?AWhenever hunger strikes, we will reach for a junk snack BEvery choice, however big or small, has an influence on usCEven small choices affect how we feelD We make choices every day65How should we make choices?ATo be interested in a richer, fuller lifeBTo make life better for ourselvesC To imagine a world where everyone did their bestDTo choose based on whats best for all 66Why does the author say, What matters is not the choice you make, but rather the intention behind your choice?ABecause the choice you make is not importantBBecause you may have made a bad choiceCBecause this allows you to stay clear and improve D Because there is no need for guilt67How to choose what is best for us?AWe need to devote all our life to others BWe need to put away some time for ourselves CWe need to sacrifice ourselves for othersDWe need to be selfless every minuteDIt is thought that crying is hardly an activity encouraged by society. Tear, whether they are of sorrow, anger, or joy, typically make Americans feel uncomfortable and embarrassed. The shedder of tears is likely to apologize, even when a great tragedy was the cause. The observer of tears is likely to do everything possible to put an end to the emotional tears. But judging from recent studies of crying behavior, both those responses to tears are often inappropriate and may even be counterproductive (适得其反).Humans are the only animals clearly known to shed（流出）emotional tears. Since evolution has given rise to few purposeless physiological responses, it is logical to assume that crying has one or more functions that enhance (increase) survival. Although some observers have suggested that crying is a way to ask for assistance form others (as a crying baby might from its mother), the shedding of tears is hardly necessary to get help. Vocal cries would have been quite enough, more likely than tears to gain attention. So, it appears, there must be somethin
