And although I have become a better 31 than I was ten years ago, I have to admit Im still only an adequate (差强人意的) one. Effective listening is more than simply avoiding the bad habit of 32 others while they are speaking. Its being content to listen to the entire thought of someone rather than waiting 33 for your chance to respond. My wife and I were recently at a cafe having lunch, overhearing the 34 around us. It seemed that no one was 35 listening to one another. 36 , they were taking turns not listening to one another. I asked my wife if I still did the same thing. With a smile on her face she said, “Only 37 .” Slowing down your responses and becoming a better listener aid you in becoming a more peaceful person. It takes 38 from you. You may have noticed that it takes an enormous amount of 39 and is very stressful to be sitting at the edge of your seat, trying to 40 what the person in front of you is going to say so that you can 41 back your response. But if you wait for him to 42 , if you 43 listen more carefully to what is being said，youll notice that the pressure you feel is 44 . Youll immediately feel more 45 , and 46 will the people you are talking to. They will feel safe in 47 down their own responses because they wont feel in 48 with you for “air time”！Not only will becoming a better listener make you a more 49 person, it will also improve the quality of your 50 . Everyone loves to talk to someone who truly listens to what they are saying.31. A. audience B. listener C. speakerD. waiter 32. A. interruptingB. botheringC. disturbingD. troubling33. A. impatientlyB. patientlyC. happilyD. angrily34. A. argumentsB. noisesC. conversationsD. sounds35. A. reallyB. likely C. friendlyD. happily36. A. ThereforeB. InsteadC. AnywayD. But37.

Its a 150-mile round trip.Today we were running a few miles when we saw a young man walking difficultly against the strong, cold winds. We stopped and asked if he needed a ride. He gladly accepted and jumped into the back seat. His name was Dan and he wasnt going far. As we dropped him off we noticed he had many large piles of cut wood in his yard. So we asked if he was interested in selling any. He said, “Oh, you can just come by anytime, even if Im not here, load up all you want.” We asked how much it would cost for a truckload. He replied, “Its free, take all you want. Just come by and get it anytime. We have more than well ever use and were hardly ever at home. Just drop by anytime and get it yourselves. Thanks for the ride and have a great day!”We kept insisting we should pay for it and would only get it if someone was at home, but he just kept repeating what hed already told us. Then as his little friendly bull came and gave me a lick on the hand, Dan said, “Come on boy!” He led his bull, racing to the doorway and yelling, “Thanks again!”What struck me most about his offer is that he was in the back seat and never saw my husbands mangled (损坏) hand. One of my husbands fingers is missing now, that is, it doesnt have nearly the strength it used to. Dan just wanted to repay us with the wood, never knowing how much that would mean to us since my husband isnt able to chop any for us this winter.51. What can we infer from the passage?A. Dan had difficulty in walking.B. Dan was very rich.C. The weather was very bad.D. The writer refused Dans offer.52. In order to _, the author wrote the last paragraph. A. show her complaint B. show her surprise C. show her desire for sympathy D. show her great thanks to Dan53. Whats the best title of this passage?A. The Price of Helping OthersB. A Helping Hand from a Hitchhiker (搭车人)C. A Moving StoryD. Dont Refuse Help from OthersBRecently I was an observer at a parent education seminar (研讨会) about the depression, suicide, and anxiety disorders affecting children. The lecturer asked the audience, “What is it that we most want our children to be?” Almost at the same time, the audience roared “HAPPY”.Of course, we parents want our children to grow into happy adults. In my new book Raising Happiness which went on sale yesterday, I give parents 10 research-based steps for raising happy children that promise to make us happier parents as well. As a part of my job at the Greater Good Science Center, I monitor the research related to happiness, childrearing, and well-being in sociology, psychology, and neuroscience. Im also a mom myself, so I am always watching for ways to apply this research to my own parenting.A lot of people have disliked my deep interest in happiness over the last decade, especially before it was clear to study and write about. But the pursuit of happiness is not a fashion: loads of ancient wisdom traditions are based on the pursuit of happiness.Aristotle once declared happiness to be the “chief good”. What he meant by this is that we do everything we do in life because we think it will make us happier. We go on diets because we think losing weight will make us happier; we search for soul-mates because we believe true joy can be found only with another person; we climb mountains because we think well be happy when we prove to others how strong we are.Unfortunately, research shows that people typically pursue happiness in ways and things that dont make them happy. At the same time, we also have a lot of scientific research which points to the things that DO make us happy. It was this research that inspired me to start writing for parents: what if we can teach children effective means to pursue happiness?I know we can do that, as parents and as a society. Our kids happiness is incredibly important: lets teach them how to achieve it! 54. is NOT the reason for the writers success in finishing her new book? A. The authors work experience.B. The authors parenting experience.C. Some researches on happiness.D. The authors lecture on parenting.55. A typical mistake that people make on their way to looking for happiness is that .A. they dont really value it B. they put too much emphasis on itC. they turn to improper means and objects D. they give up halfway.56. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. The pursuit of happiness is a new product of social development.B. The authors parental experience is a major source of my research work.C. Aristotle considered happiness to be of great value in life.D. Raising Happiness will teach children what is genuine happiness.57. The author ends this passage with an/a .A. demand B. appeal C. conclusion D. solutionCYour Money!

This is seen as a reflection of nationwide passion for sweaty competition and national pride.Lou Dapeng, Senior Sports Advisor, said, “Because for the past two centuries, we have always been subjected (使屈从) by western powers. In a way, the Chinese people they have been called sick men in Asia. The gold medals are reflection of the dignity (尊严) of our nation.”The success of the sports system means China will keep it.“China has been using a governmentsponsored national sports system since the 1980s. The emphasis has been on training promising young athletes, with the primary goal of winning glory for the country. But only a few can make it to the top.”Unlike the club system in the UK or the US, the Chinese government provides full funding to train athletes from grassroots to the very top, for competitive sports. The enormous cost is difficult to calculate.Wei Jizhong, Former President, China Sports Industry Group Co., said, “As the general grassroots training system has yet to be established, China has to use a kind of industrialized way to produce medals for the athletes from young.”But China does not do all that well in track and field and swimming. The need to make breakthroughs in these sports was what brought 18-year-old Huang Zhenghan to the pool.Huang Zhenghan, swimmer, Beijing Swimming Team, said, “Sports competition is cruel. Only one or two can get the gold, yet we all keep on training for that goal. But you may not get the reward.”Yan Qiang, Vice President, Titan Media, said, “We have forming a habit of enjoying the gold medals, instead of better understanding of sports. So, society should focus more on real meaning of sportsthe participation of sports, in order to improve our overall physical standards and well-being that will be even greater achievements for sports in China.”62. can replace the underlined word in the first paragraph.A. Started B. Took C. Made D. Forced63. Whats the implied meaning of the words of Lou Dapeng?A. Chinese people shouldnt be cal
