When I was 17，I read a quote that 21 like，“If you live each day 22 it was your last，someday youll most certainly be right.” Since then，for the past thirty-three years，Ive looked 23 the mirror every morning and asked myself：“If today were the last day of my life，would I want to do what I am about to do today？”And whenever the answer has been “No” for too many days in a 24 ，I know I need to change something.About a year ago I was 25 with cancer. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable，and that I should 26 to live no longer than three to six months. They advised me to go home and get my 27 in order，which is doctors code for “prepare to 28 ”. Later that evening when the doctors 29 the cells taken from my pancreas(胰腺)under a microscope，they started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is 30 with surgery.

The only thing that brightened my day was the beautifully decorated Christmas tree in our waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow I was dating- a dozen long-stemmed red roses.As I was cleaning my office, our receptionist came and said there was a lady in the front office that urgently needed to speak with me. As I stepped out, I noticed a young, tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms. Nervously, she explained that her husband-a prisoner in a nearby prison-was my next patient. The guards were scheduled to bring him to the office that afternoon. She told me she wasnt allowed to visit her husband in prison and that he had never seen his son. Her request was for me to let the boys father sit in the waiting room with her as long as possible before I called him for his appointment. Since my schedule wasnt full, I agreed. After all, it was Christmas Eve.A short time later, her husband arrived-with chains on his feet and hands, and two armed guards as bodyguards. The womans tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her. I kept glancing out to watch them laugh, cry and share their child. After almost an hour, I called the prisoner back to my office. While I worked, the guards stood just outside my door. The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man. I wondered what he possibly could have done to be held under such conditions. I tried to make him as comfortable as possible.At the end of the appointment, I wished him a Merry Christmas-a difficult thing to say to a man headed back to prison. He smiled and thanked me. He also said he felt saddened by the fact he hadnt been able to get his wife anything for Christmas. On hearing this, I was inspired with a wonderful idea.Ill never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful, long-stemmed roses. Im not sure who experienced the most joy-the husband in giving, the wife in receiving, or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special moment.41What can be inferred from the first paragraph?AThe writer was a newcomer to her office.BA fellow sent her a dozen red roses as Christmas present.CShe was in low spirits because she had to work before Christmas.DShe was at work with a light heart.42The young woman came to the writers office for the purpose of . Ahaving her baby examined Bgiving her husband a chance to make his escape Chaving her husband examined Dgetting a chance for her family to get together43The underlined part in paragraph 3 most probably means “ ”. Ato be sent to hospitalBto be separated from his familyCto be comfortable Dto become a prisoner44What does the writer learn from the story?AThe wife experienced the most joy in receiving.BAn act of kindness can mean a lot.CThe prisoner was treated with mercy. DWhoever breaks the law shall be punished.BNext time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when youre doing your holiday shopping online, make sure youre holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation（感觉）of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisionsthose are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh.Psychologists have known that one persons perception（感知）of anothers “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlows work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the studys hypotheses（假设）, handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form. The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.“We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says Bargh.45. According to Paragraph 1, a persons emotion may be affected by _.A. the visitors to his office B. the psychology lessons he hasC. his physical feeling of coldness D. the things he has bought online46. The author mentions Harlows experiment to show that _.A. adults should develop social skills B. babies need warm physical contactC. caregivers should be healthy adults D. monkeys have social relationships47. In Barghs experiment, the students were asked to _.A. evaluate someones personality B. write down their hypothesesC. fill out a personal information form D. hold coffee and cold drink alternatively48. We can infer from the passage that _.A. abstract thinking does not come from physical experiencesB. feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwideC. physical temperature affects how we see othersD. capable persons are often cold to othersCDo you want to visit Warwick Castle in Britain?

The text probably is taken from .A. a newspaper B. a magazine C. a geography book D. a websiteDThe traditional distinction between products that satisfy needs and those satisfy wants is no longer adequate to describe classes of products. In todays prosperous societies, the distinction has become unclear because so many wants have been turned into needs. A writer, for instance, can work with paper and pencils. These are legal needs for the task. But the work can be done more quickly and efficiently with a word processor. Thus a computer is soon viewed as a need rather than a want. In the field of marketing, consumer goods are classed according to the way in which they are purchased. The two main classes are convenience goods and shopping goods. Two lesser types are specialty goods and unsought(主动提供的) goods. It must be emphasized that all of these types are based on the way shoppers think about products, not on the nature of the products themselves. What is regarded as a convenience item in France (wine, for example) should be a specialty goods in the United States. People do not spend a great deal of time shopping for such convenience items as groceries, newspapers, toothpaste, aspirin, and candy. The buying of convenience goods may be done routinely, as some families buy groceries once a week. Such regularly purchased items are called staples. Sometimes convenience products are bought without enough thinking; someone has a sudden desire for an ice cream sundae(圣代) on a hot day. Or they may be purchased as emergency items. Shopping goods are items for which customers search. They compare prices, quality, and styles, and may visit a number of stores before making a decision. Buying an automobile is often done this way. Shopping goods fall into two classes; those that are recognized as basically the same and those that are regarded as different. Items that are looked upon as basically the same include such things as home appliances, television sets, and automobiles. Having decided on the model desired, the customer is primarily interested in getting the item at the most favorable price. Items regarded as essentially different include clothing, furniture, and dishes. Quality, style and fashion will either take precedence(优先) over price, or they will not matter at all.53. It can be learned from the first paragraph that _. A. a writer needs a word processor B. needs and wants cant be separated clearly C. the way to distinguish the products is unimportant D. a computer is a need rather than a want54.
