Then a “virtual coach” application shows the information and can tell the user what they are doing wrong,and help to improve skill in any task with feet.The socks should be useful to athletes and weekend joggers.People think running is so easy and of course everybody can do it but not necessarily safely and well,Dr Davide Vigano said.A recent study showed that between 60 and 80 percent of runners got hurt per year.This is pretty much more than any other human activity.Researchers say the technology can also be developed to teach people how to dance,play sports such as golf,or even to help to teach women to walk better in high heels.Mr.Vigano said,“People could all benefit from the idea.We have had interest from all sorts of sports,like skiing, football,cycling and golf.Anything where you have to use your feet can use it.It could even be put in high heels to help women walk in them safely.”Socks are just the start,and the technology could be used in gloves,hats and boots.The socks,anklet and software package,are expected to be sold for around120,which will go on sale in March.24.What does the underlined part anyone with two left feet refer to?A.People who are disabled.

But there was nothing equal to.Papa walked back straight to the stove in the kitchen,pushed the straw hat deep down into the fire then turned to mama,in a way that even frightened me.Now listen to me,mama.Understand this I will never wear a straw hat or any other kind of hat my horses do not like.Then he put on his wool cowboy hat and walked out of the house.I never heard mama talk any more about hats.Perhaps,that is why when papa died many years later,there was a round spot on the top of his head where there was no hair.28.According to the passage,a ranger is .A.a person wearing a woolen hat B.a position requiring clean clothesC.a person training horses for some purpose D.a person riding a carriage with horses29.Mama bought papa a straw hat because .A.most cowboys preferred to wear it B.she was worried about his healthC.a woolen one didnt suit papa D.it was cheap and she could save money30.What quality can we learn from papa?A.Gentle.

The answer is that we must equip ourselves to deal with different kinds of worries by learning the three basic steps of problem analysis.The three steps are:Get the facts.Why is it so important to get the facts?Unless you have the facts,you cant possibly attempt to solve your problem intelligently.Without the facts,all you can do is wondering around in confusion.It is not an easy job to get facts.When you are worried,your emotions are riding high._36_.When trying to get the facts,you can pretend that you are collecting this information not for yourself but for some other person._37_.You can also pretend that you are a lawyer preparing to agree.Try to get all the facts both on your side and the other side of the case.You will generally find the truth lies somewhere in between._38_.Whenever you are worried,write down the questions that make you worry.And write out all the various steps you could take and then the probable consequences of each step.For example,what am l worrying about? What can I do about it?Here is what Im going to do about it.After carefully weighing all the facts,you can calmly come to a decision.Act on that decision._39_.How can you break the worry habit before it breaks you?Crowd worry out of your mind by keeping busy. Plenty of action is one of the best ways to cure worry._40_.If you know a situation is beyond your power,say to yourself:“It is so;it cant be otherwise.”Dont permit little things to ruin your happiness.Try to cultivate a mental attitude that will bring you peace and happiness.A.Analyze the facts.B.Accept what cant be avoided.C.Decide how much anxiety a thing may be worth.D.This will help you to take a cold and fair view of the evidence.E.There comes a time when you must decide and never look back.F.But here are two ideas that can help you see the facts in a clear and objective way.G.Unless you take your action,all your fact-finding and analysis is a sheer waste of energy.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。When I was in my twenties.I travelled alone through the UK.In order to_41_locations that the public transportation couldnt get to,I bought a(n)_42_car,drove it around for three months and sold it before I returned to Australia.The car cost most of my money,so I lived mainly on_43_during that trip,it being cheap and filling.In Ireland,my_44_was stolen,and it was impossible to get another.So for the rest of the trip I_45_out in my car,being too poor to afford bed-and-breakfasts.One morning,I_46_in my old Skoda under a twisted tree on a remote lane in the Irish countryside,with no more than a_47_house in sight.I had a terrible desire for a_48_cup of tea and some hot water to make porridge with _49_I would not have to eat the cold leftovers from the previous day.My thermos（暖瓶）had gone cold overnight so I knocked on the door of the house.A woman opened it.Hot water?She_50_let me get away with just that!I was invited indoors,seated at the breakfast table with the_51_and given a delicious breakfast,as much as I could eat.I was _52_to eat something more than porridge!I_53_being friends with the whole family.That was only one of many acts of_54_strangers showed me when I was travelling alone in foreign regions.One London businessman rushing to work,seeing me_55_offered to pull my ridiculously heavy suitcase_56_several flights of stairs in the underground.After hed done so,with a smile and a wave,he_57_into the crowd.Kindness gets_58_.The other day,I was able to point out a rare parking spot to a young man who had been driving around the railway car park,looking_59_desperate.His grateful smile was all the_60_I needed as I dashed off to catch my train.41.A.search B.reach C.choose D.arrive42.A.modern B.intelligent C.ancient D.special43.A.porridge B.bread C.rice D.vegetable44.A.car B.mobile C.backpack D.wallet45.A.camped B.worked C.watched D.looked46.A.appeared B.slept C.awoke D.explored47.A.deserted B.single C.separate D.shabby48.A.typical B.measuring C.necessary D.steaming49.A.now that B.even if C.so that D.in case50.A.wouldnt B.shouldnt C.neednt D.couldnt51.A.couple B.family C.woman D.adult52.A.amazed B.frustrated C.ashamed D.delighted53.A.ended up B.gave up C.kept up D.turned up54.A.sadness B.kindness C.happiness D.forgiveness55.A.working B.travelling C.Struggling D.crying56.A.around B.forward C.away D.up57.A.faded away B.threw away C.put away D.tore away58.A.turned down B.handed out C.passed on D.started with59.A.immediately B.increasingly C.constantly D.directly60.A.dream B.memory C.intention D.reward第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。Do you have such kind of experience?In a bus you may look at a stranger,but not too long.And if he senses that he_61_(stare) at,he may feel uncomfortable.The same happens in daily life.If you are looked at for more than necessary,you will look at yourself up and down,to see_62_anything is wrong with you.If nothing goes wrong,you will feel uncomfortable.Eyes do speak,right?_63_(look) too long at someone may seem to be rude.But things are different when_64_comes to a stare at the opposite sex.If a man_65_(glance) at a woman for more than 10 seconds,that means he wishes to make her know he is admiring her.Normally,the speaker in conversation will look at the listener at times to make sure that the listener does pay attention to_66_the former is saying.A poor liar usually makes himself_67_(expose) by looking too long at the victim,since he believes in the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest_68_(communicate).
