Later on, well see.” He gave no assurances. Feeling like a man who in mid-career has suddenly been placed under _37_ of death with an indefinite reprieve(缓刑), I left the doctors office . After careful thought, I _38_ my affairs; then I went home and got into bed and set my watch to tick off not the minutes, but the months. But 2 years and many dashed hope later, I left my bed and began the long climb _39_.

I _42_ now that this world is not my oyster(牡蛎)to be opened but my _43_ to be grasped. Each day is a precious entity. The sun comes up and presents me with 24 brand new hoursnot to pass, but to fill.Ive also learned that its necessary to _44_ those little, all-important things I never thought I would _45_ before: the music of the _46_ in my favorite pine tree, the play of sunlight on running water. I seem now to see and hear and feel with some of the_47_freshness of childhood. How well, _48_, I recall the touch of the earth the day I first stepped upon it after the years in bed. It was like _49_ ones citizenship in a world one had lost.Frequently, I _50_ myself that I need to make a _51_ of this moment Im living right now, because in it Im well, _52_, doing what I like best. It wont always be like this. Ill, _53_, make the most of it and be grateful. I _54_ all this to that long time spent on the sidelines of life.

According to the information of Auckland Museum, we know that _.A. it opens from 10 am to 5 pmevery dayB. it has a feast of fresh events except this yearC. the winner will fly a helicopter as a rewardD. the museum focuses on New Zealands cultureBAs we grow old, we realize that we have so little time to read and there are so many great books that weve yet to get around to. Yet re-readers are everywhere around us. For certain fans, re-reading The Lord of the Rings is a conventional practice annually. One friend told me that Jane Austens Emma can still surprise him, despite his having read it over 50 times.New sudden clear understandings can be gained from the process of re-reading. Journalist Rebacca Mead, a long-time Englishwoman in New York, first came across George Eliots Middlemarch at 17. Since then, has read it again every five years. With each re-reading, it has opened up further; in each chapter of her life, it has resonated (引起共鸣) differently. Mead evidenced the large number of ways in which really good books not only stand the test of repeat reads, but also offer fresh gifts each time we crack their spines. These kinds of books grow with us.Scientists have also recognized the mental health benefits of re-reading. Research conducted with readers in the US found that on our first reading, we are concerned with the “what” and the “why”. Second time round, were able to better appreciate the emotions that the plot continues to express. As researcher Cristel Russell of the American University explained, returning to a book “brings new or renewed appreciation of both the great book and its readers.”Its true that we often find former selves on the pages of old books (if were fond of making notes on the pages). These texts can carry us back to a lime and place, and remind us of the kind of person that we were then. Were changed not only by lived experience but also by reading experience-by the books that weve discovered since last reading the one in our hand.More than the movie director or the musician, the writer calls upon our imaginations, using words to lead us to picture this declaration of love or that unfaithfulness in life. A book is a joint project between writers and readers, and we must pour so much of ourselves into reading that our own life story can become connected with the story in the book.Perhaps whats really strange is that we dont re-read more often. After all, we watch our favorite films again and we wouldnt think of listening to an album only once. We treasure messy old paintings as objects, yet of all art forms, literature alone is a largely one-time delight. A book, of course, takes up more time, but as Mead confirms, the rewards make it adequately worthwhile.58. The two books are mentioned in Paragraph 1 mainly to .A. attract the attention of re-readers B. introduce the topic of the passageC. provide some background information D. show the similarity between re-readers59. The underlined expression “crack their spines” in Paragraph 2 refers to .A. re-read them B. recite them C. recall them D. retell them60. It can be learned from the passage that .A. reading benefits people both mentally and physically.B. readers mainly focus on feelings on their first reading.C. writers inspire the same imaginations as film directors do.D. we know ourselves better through re-reading experience.CIts well established that people with low economic status are the hardest hit by the current obesity pandemic (肥胖症), as well as related health problems such as diabetes. Poor healthcare, stress, unhealthy lifestyles, and a lot of cheap junk food are all thought to play a role. But a new study suggests theres a subconscious component, too.When researchers merely led study volunteers to consider themselves low-class, they were more likely to prefer, choose, and eat larger amounts of food, as well as higher-calorie foods. The findings, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, reflect whats been seen in a variety of animals. Thus, the authors assume that the mental problem may be an evolutionary holdover (遗留物) intended to improve survival by compensating for a lack of social and material resources. More important for humans, the findings suggest that we may not be able to deal with obesity by just improving access to healthier foods and promoting exercise.For the study, psychology researchers at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore drafted nearly 500 healthy participants for two experiments. In the first, the team had 101 participants complete a task in which they were shown a ladder with ten steps and told to select which step they were on relative to either a wealthy, well-educated, powerful person or a poor, uneducated, unimportant person. Next, the participants got to pick foods from an imagined buffet. Taking into account things like each participants normal eating pattern, hunger, and gender, the researchers found that those who ranked their social status lower chose more food and more high-calorie foods than those that ranked themselves as having a higher social status.In the other experiment, researchers gave 167 participants the same socioeconomic ranking task, then asked them to match high calorie foods (pizza, hamburgers, fried chicken) and low calories foods (vegetables and fruits) with either pleasant or unpleasant descriptors, such as tasty or nasty. Again, those who landed lower on the ladder had a tendency to prefer the high-calorie food.“These findings suggest that the thought of low social standing may be critically linked to obesity risk via increased intake of calories,” the authors conclude. As such, the subjective experience of low social standing may be another barrier to improving health.61. What does the author want to reveal in the first paragraph?A. More and more people tend to suffer from diabetes.B. Unhealthy lifestyles contribute to obesity pandemic.C. Subconscious plays a part in causing obesity pandemic.D. low-class people are less likely to be affected by diabetes.62. What is the possible link between low-class people and animals?A. Consumption of larger amounts of food results from desire for survival.B. Low-class people and animals are easily affected by mental disabilities.C. Creatures consuming higher-calorie foods consider themselves low-class.D. humans and animals have both consumed much food during evolution.63. How can humans deal with obesity completely according to the findings?A. By carrying out the two experiments.B. By adopting comprehensive approaches.C. By accessing large amounts of healthy foodsD. By getting involved in lots of physical exercise.64. The passage mainly intends to inform us that_.A. findings remain to be proved B. obesity p
