Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.We see neighbors practically every day in the morning before we rush to work and in the evening when we return. But have you ever thought it over why neighbors are so important to our lives?Neighbors can help bring out our social best. After all, neighbors deserve to be treated with respect and friendliness like everyone else.Neighbors can be helpful too. They can help look after our houses when we are away on holiday. If you are new to the neighborhood, they can advise you on how things operate, where to go and so on.Hence, if you have a good relationship with your neighbors, it is easier to solve problems like who should keep the passageways clean, or who should do repairs on retaining walls (挡土墙) or fences.Of course, you have good and bad neighbors.The good neighbors help one another. A good neighbor may spend their own money buying young trees and planting them to beautify the neighborhood for everyone, or may help to dig a communal garden bed for roses.Good neighbors give each other food occasionally. Its not what and how often you give, its the thought that counts.Then you have the bad neighbors.I know of a neighbor who trimmed the branches of his tree, letting them fall and damage another neighbors fence and nearby plants.Instead of seeking out the neighbor and paying for the damage, the stubborn neighbor kept quiet about the matter even when the victimized neighbor complained. The bad neighbor also had a fierce dog and does not bother to put it on a leash. This dog has frightened some older ladies living close by.Then there are neighbors who are a little bit too “nosy”. They invade your privacy too often by focusing on their binoculars on your homes or asking too many questions about your activities.If you have problems with your neighbors, youd better discuss these with them openly. You might be living with them for years and it is in both your interests to solve these problems amicably (友善地).You can get a restraining order to stop a neighbor from harassing you or your property.Taking legal action to solve a problem with a neighbor should be the last choice. If you have to take this action, then it might be better to move to another neighborhood.31.Which one of the following can be the most proper title for this passage?A) Good Neighbors Make Life Easy B) Neighbors: Helpers of Life C) Good and Bad Neighbors D) How to Deal With Neighbors? 正确答案： A32.A good neighbor will behave in all the following ways EXCEPT _.A) being glad to help one another B) giving a hand to new neighbors C) keeping quiet about matters D) being considerate to others 正确答案： C33.Which statement is true about bad neighbors?A) They trim the branches too frequently. B) They keep the fierce pets at large. C) They frighten old ladies for fun. D) They keep quiet about any matter. 正确答案： B34.What does the word “nosy” (Para.11) mean?A) Be sensitive to smells. B) Be keen on finding secrets out. C) Be interested in others business. D) Be good at making sounds. 正确答案： C35.How does the author advise you to solve the problems with your neighbors?A) Warn your neighbors before action. B) Talk about the trouble frankly. C) Post a restraining order on your neighbors door. D) Go to the lawsuit directly. 正确答案： BPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.When you consciously keep thinking of something, your unconscious mind will somehow spontaneously push that idea or issue back to the surface even when you are doing something else, because your unconscious mind accepts, stores, and plays back everything that the conscious mind focuses on. The unconscious mind is like a “yes” person, agreeing, accepting and reminding.Hence, your unconscious mind can respond positively or negatively, depending on how you have consciously conditioned it by constantly thinking about something.If you keep thinking negatively of someone, you will constantly say negative things about that person when you are chatting away with another friend.If you keep telling yourself that it is very difficult to study English or that your English lecture is boring, then that thought will always crop up uninvited when you are chatting with someone or doing something else.That is how the unconscious mind works. That is why successful athletes who consciously, continuously and consistently focus on superior performance actually perform well because they are driven by their unconscious mind.Its important to understand that whatever you consciously focus on, your unconscious mind will accept it. You need to think positively so that your unconscious mind will respond likewi se.If you find yourself in a negative mood, discontinue that mood. Perhaps look at yourself through a mirror and see how “ugly” your face is when you are in a bitter mood. If you have a coin, flip it over. Say to yourself: “There are two sides of me, the good and the bad. Now I seem to be bad, so lets focus on the good.”You must not hold a negative thought too long, or it will come back again and get more rooted in your system.Once you are in a negative system, it would take much more reprogramming to uproot the bad “trees” in your mind. You could have a full-grown negative “forest” in your mind and that could take ages to uproot. So place it with a positive thought. Affirm consciously, continuously and consistently your new positive image. Focus on the new trait visually and see yourself succeeding in it.Review your behavior. Do you moan and groan too often? Do you talk like a loser? Are you small-minded, selfish and unforgiving?Its time you consciously conditioned your unconscious mind to work in a positive manner.36.What is the best title for this passage?A) Train Your Unconscious Mind B) Conscious Mind and Unconscious Mind C) Uproot Negative Thoughts D) How the Unconscious Mind Works 正确答案： A37.How does the author support the idea that “ones unconscious mind can respond positively or negatively”?A) By providing examples. B) By giving reasons. C) By stating peoples opinions. D) By accounting his personal experiences. 正确答案： A38.Para. 5 is mainly discussing _.A) how good performance affects ones unconscious mind B) how a positive unconscious mind develops C) how a persons unconscious mind works positively D) how people condition their unconscious mind 正确答案： C39.When conditioning your unconscious mind, it is very important to understand that _.A) we should avoid aiming too high B) our unconscious mind should agree with our true potential C) we are always better than what we think we are D) our unconscious mind will accept whatever we consciously focus on 正确答案： D40.What can we infer from the sentence “You could have a full-grown negative forest in your mind and that could take ages to uproot” (Para. 9)?A) Negative thoughts are potential obstacles to our further development. B) It takes consistent effort to get rid of negative thoughts. C) Negative thoughts are a part of learning in our lives.
