One of my classmates and I were 36 our project work late at night on my universitys campus far from home. Since there was 37 in the forecast, I had worn a winter 38 to school that day with a raincoat in my bag.Throughout our work on the project, I could 39 that my friend was tired from a very long day working. As we stepped outside to begin the 40 walk home,I 41 she was shivering(颤抖). The temperature had dropped to the low thirties (Fahrenheit) and she 42 had a sweater on. I 43 offered her my warm jacket. She accepted it and asked me what I 44 wear then. I told her I had another one and pretended that my 45 was a jacket. She said later that she 46 the next morning and the first thing on her mind was feeling moved about my 47 of the jacket.Coincidentally(碰巧), the next day I went to an open-air play and I was freezing 48 I didnt expect it to be so 49 . A person who I hardly 50 insisted that I wear his jacket. I was 51 touched by this warm gesture. He was so matter-of-fact(讲究实际的) about me 52 his coat, too: he simply took it off and handed it to me telling me that I should 53 it. I used to think that this vast universe was a cold 54 . It turns out that even when the temperature drops low, the people never 55 to warm each others hearts.36. A. starting B. destroying C. showing D. doing37. A. rain B. fog C. snow D. cloud38.

It was my friend Lydia, upset over an argument with her husband. My usual approach is to offer advice, but this time, extremely tired from chores, I simply pulled off my coat, sat down in a chair and listened to my friends frustration and sadness. Without the disturbance of judgment or the desire to comfort her, I stayed totally quiet while she talked. Eventually Lydias depression eased and we said our goodbyes. The next day she phoned to thank me. Im so grateful for the way you helped me through this, she said.At first I was surprised. After all, I had done nothing except be there for her. But after I had my own venting(发泄的) experience with another friend later that evening, I realized that my focused silence had some value. In fact, most relationship experts agree that talk is cheap; its listening thats rare and valuable. It allows you not only to hear what the other person is saying, but also to have a clear understanding of her thoughts and feelings. And for the speaker, that level of understanding translates into concern and respect.Unfortunately, listening isnt as easy as it sounds. Thanks to schedules filled with family and work, multitasking has become the barrier(障碍) to listening. My tiredness may have been the only thing stopping me from folding laundry or checking my e-mail while Lydia talked that afternoon.Another barrier to listening is our listening system: Most of us take in only about half of whats being said during a conversation, according to the International Listening Association. Research shows that we speak at 125 to 150 words per minute, yet think at 500 words a minute. Therefore, because we think much more quickly than we speak, it is easy for us to lose our concentration when listening to speakers.While it can be hard to focus at times, its a skill worth developing. With a little practice employing some techniques you can become a better listener.56. In Paragraph 2, the author mainly talks about _.A. the importance of listening B. the importance of venting angerC. her own listening experience D. her own venting experience57. The author uses the result of the research in Paragraph 4 to mainly show that _.A. we think much more quickly than we speakB. we can only understand about half of what we hearC. there is not much thinking time available while we are listeningD. we lose our concentration easily while we are listening58. What will be discussed following the passage?A. Why listening is valuable. B. What we should do while listeningC. How to become a good listener D. How to stop drifting off while listening.BAbout OrdersOrdering via Fax or MailYou can call us at (212) 868-8488 to place your orders.

The male and female are similar in size, reaching 122 cm in height and weighing anywhere from 22 to 45 kg. The back and head are black, contrasting sharply with the pale-yellow breast and bright-yellow ears. Like all penguins, it is flightless, with a streamlined body and their wings stiffen and flatten into flippers(鳍状肢) for a marine habitat.Its diet consists primarily of fish, but can also include animals with hard shells. In hunting, the species can remain underwater up to 18 minutes, diving to a depth of 535 m. Its unusually structured hemoglobin(血红蛋白)allows it to function at low oxygen levels.The emperor penguin is perhaps best known for the journeys adults make each year in order to mate and to feed their babies. The only penguin species that breeds(繁殖) during the Antarctic winter, it goes on a long journey of 50-120 km over the ice to breeding areas which may include thousands of individuals. The female lays a single egg, which is incubated(孵化)by the male while the female returns to the sea to feed; parents take turns searching for food at sea and caring for their chick. They both care for the chick until it is able to enter the water to find food on its own. During the process of incubation, the male can lose up to 1/3 to 1/2 of his body weight. One of the coolest things about the male is that if the chick comes out its egg before the female returns, the male can actually produce a special liquid to feed the chick. He can only do this for a short time. If the female doesnt return, he must leave the chick to go on with his own life. The emperor penguin can typically live for 20 years in the wild, although observations suggest that some individual may live to 50 years of age.62.

According to the passage, _.A. the egg of the emperor penguin is mainly incubated by the femaleB. many emperor penguins will stay together to breedC. the male emperor penguin will give up his own life to feed the chickD. the female emperor penguin will leave the chick forever once it lays an egg第四部分 写作(共四节，满分45分)第一节 任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。请将答案写在答题纸相应题号的横线上。Mirriam Websters online dictionary defines happy as: enjoying good health and satisfaction.
