After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, Id have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer .Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him. But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time .The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215. My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him. And he made me pay him $770. Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience, I told the insurance company the date I was leaving America.

Here are five ways for you to find more pleasure in your life.Play that song you love so much. As a preschooler can tell you, repetition can lead to pleasure. When you experience something more than once, you notice more details about it each time, and it increases your enjoyment. Thats why you love revisiting that jazz club, favorite restaurant, and beloved old Woody Allen movie. Of course, you can overdo it. Dont buy boxed sets of DVDs. Economist(经济学家) Tyler says that much of the joy we get from our buying lies in the experience of finding them out, getting them home, and opening them up. If you receive 18 DVDs in one package, youll use up the excitement all at once. Buy things one a time and space out the pleasure. Look outside. People long ago spent almost all of their time outside with trees, water, and sky around. The world in which most of us spend our time nowadays is unnatural and can harm the spirit. Even being close to nature for a short time can make us happy. _. Physical contact with animals works wonders. You can pet an animal. It increases the brain chemicals connected with pleasure and decreases those connected with stress. Even people without pets can get some of the effect by hanging out for a few minutes at a dog shelter. Smile. Well, like it or not, smiling improves your mood. Heres why: people react better to you when you look happy, which in turn leads you to be happy. Whats more, looking happy fools your brain into thinking that you are happy.60.According to the writer, buying things one at a time can _.A. helps us save some money. B. spare time for other activitiesC. increase our experience of happinessD. give us more time to consider buying things.61.Whats the best title for Paragraph 5 ?A.Exercise the brain B. Pet an animalC.Reduce work stress D. Hang out more often62. Which of the following is right?A. Smiles fools others mood. B. Repetition results in pleasure.C. Animals adds to your stress. D. Spending time outside harms your spirit.63. What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?A. The effect of pleasure on life. B. The writers own experience.C. Another way to find pleasure. D. Reasons for finding more pleasure.CIf you do not use your arm or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people cant read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering.64. The main reason for ones poor memory is that _. A. his memory is not often used B. he does not use his name or legs for some time C. his father or mother may have a poor memory D. he cant read or write65. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Dont learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory. B. Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you dont give it enough chance for practice.C. Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs.D. A good memory comes from more practice.66. Some people cant read or write, but they usually have better memories, because _.A. they have save much troubleB. they have saved much time to remember thingsC. they have to use their memories all the timeD. they cant write everything in a little notebook67. Which is the best title for this passage?A. Dont Stop Using Your Arms or LegsB. How to Have a Good MemoryC. Strong Arms and Good MemoriesD. Learn From the PeopleDJAPANS “purchase” of the Diaoyu Islands has sparked anger among Chinese people. Protests broke out across the country, sending a strong message to the world: the Diaoyu Islands belong to China. Somehistorical facts can help explain why the Diaoyu Islands belong to China.Terra nullius Japans claim: “The Senkaku Islands (Japanese name for the Diaoyu Islands) were terra nullius before Japan discovered them.” Fact: In 1884, a Japanese explorer named Tatsushiro Koga landed on the Diaoyu Islands and claimed that they were “terra nullius”. The Japanese government investigated (调查) and concluded that these islands were already recorded in Chinese documents. It turned down Kogas application. These facts are recorded in Japan Diplomatic Documents. However, in 1895 Japan decided that they were uninhabited (无人居住的) and illegally controlled the islands.But being “uninhabited” doesnt mean the islands had no owner. Chinese fishermen have long conducted activity on these islands and in neighboring waters.Underhand exchange Japans claim: “Under the 1951 Treaty of San Francisco, the Senkaku Islands came under US trusteeship (托管) and were then returned to Japan in 1971, under the Okinawa Reversion Agreement (归还冲绳协定).” Fact: At the end of the Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895), Japan seized the Diaoyu Islands. It forced the Qing government to sign the Treaty of Shimonoseki (马关条约) and give up “the Taiwan Islands and their affiliated islands”. At the end of World War II, the Cairo Declaration and the Potsdam Proclamation ruled that China recovered Taiwan, the Penghu Islands and other territories Japan had occupied before. The Diaoyu Islands were returned to China according to international law. However, in 1971 in the Okinawa Reversion Agreement, the US unilaterally(单方面地) passed administrative power over the Diaoyu Islands to Japan.Actual control Japans claim: “In 1896, the Japanese government leased (租用) part of the Senkaku Islands to Tatsushiro Koga to explore for 30 years for free. In 1918 his son inherited (继承) it. So Japan has had actual control over the islands.” Fact: The Japanese government “leased” and then “sold” part of them to the Koga family in 1932. After that, the US military base in Okinawa and the Japanese government have been
