17、is upon us. Finally, after months of study, you have some time to yourself. So, why not read a book? Well, some people will say, "Why bother with books? We have the Internet and other media that offer a lot of more colorful entertainment. Books are history!" But don't be fooled. I'

18、m sure there's still a lot to be said for reading.One clear reason is that a well-chosen book is a wonderful source of vocabulary, so long as you have a good dictionary, of course. Believe me, it's far easier to get new English words and phrases from a book or an article than it is from the

19、TV or the Internet.But another more important point is that books give you something that modern media simply can not. The average webpage is picture-heavy and the text is often designed to make it as easy to read as possible. While "easy" may be attractive, unfortunately it's of littl

20、e use for any long-term development of reading skills and the general language level. Because of that, there's still no substitute (替代品) of a book.But perhaps the best single reason is that simply choosing what you read and doing it independently means that it's something you do by and for y

21、ourself. You can choose what you want to read. It's hard work, but somewhere down the line, you'll find that what once seemed like a duty is now a pleasure.41. How many reasons for reading a book does the author mention in the passage?A. Three B. Two C. One D. Four42. According to the passag

22、e, we basically need a _ in reading.A. television B. pencil C. notebookD. dictionary 43. In the author's opinion, reading on the Internet may_.A. develop long-term reading skills B. improve the general language abilityC. not take the place of reading books D. be an effective way of reading44. Th

23、e passage is written mainly to _.A. share the pleasure of reading booksB. advise readers to read booksC. stress the importance of reading onlineD. help readers to choose good booksBI shall never forget the night, a few years ago, when Marion J. Douglas was a student in one of my adult-education clas

24、ses. He told us how tragedy had struck at his home, not once, but twice. The first time he had lost his five-year-old daughter. He and his wife thought they couldnt bear that first loss; but, as he said, “Ten months later, God gave us another little girl and she died in five days.”This double bereav

25、ement was almost too much to bear. “I couldnt take it,” this father told us. “I couldnt sleep, eat, rest or relax. My nerves were entirely shaken and my confidence gone.” At last he went to the doctors: one recommended sleeping pills and another recommended a trip, but neither helped. He said, “My b

26、ody felt as if it was surrounded in a vice(大钳子), and the jaws of the vice were being drawn tighter and tighter.” The tension of grief(悲伤) - if you have ever been paralyzed(使瘫痪) by sorrow, you know what the meant.“But thank God, I had one child left - a four-year-old son. He gave me the solution to t

27、he problem. One afternoon as I sat around feeling sorry for myself, he asked, Daddy, will you build a boat for me? I was in no mood to build a boat; in fact, I was in no mood to do anything. But my son is a persistent fellow! I had to give in. Building that toy boat took me about three hours. By the

28、 time it was finished, I realized that those three hours spent building that boat were first hours of mental relaxation and peace that I had had in months! I realized that it is difficult to worry while you are busy doing something that requires planning and thinking. In my case, building the boat h

29、ad knocked worry out of the ring. So I determined to keep busy.”“The following night, I made a list of jobs that ought to be done. Scores of items needed to be repaired. Amazingly, I had made a list of 242 items that needed attention. During the last two years I have completed most of them. I am so

30、busy now that I have no time for worry.”No time for worry! That is exactly what Winston Churchill said when he was working eighteen hours a day at the height of the war. When he was asked if he worried about his huge responsibilities, he said, “I am too busy. I have no time for worry.”45. The underl

31、ined word “bereavement” in the second paragraph refers to _.A. having lost a loved oneB. having lost a valuable articleC. having lost a profit-making businessD. having lost a well-paid job46. Marion felt his body as if it was caught in a vice because _.A. he couldnt earn enough money to support his

32、familyB. he was suffering from sleeplessness diseaseC. he couldnt get out of mental pressureD. he felt tired of adult-education classes47. Marion made a list of over 200 items that needed to be repaired because _.A. he hadnt been able to spare time to mend themB. he wanted to kill his free time by r

33、epairing themC. the items had actually been broken and needed attentionD. repairing the items helped crowd worry out of his mind48. At the end of the passage, the author wrote about Winston Churchill in order to _.A. prove that he followed Churchills exampleB. support his students solution to his pr

34、oblemC. show that he was successful in his careerD. make it clear how his conclusion was reachedCForgiving someone who has hurt you or let you down is never an easy thing. Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably dont

35、think of it as being a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.When cartoon book characters like the Incredible Hulk get angry, they change colours and oftengain special power. In the real world, anger

36、is less obvious and may be more dangerous. Thats why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Good, says holding on to anger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.The studies find that peopl

37、e who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression. They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.So it doesnt matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as dee

38、p breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if its worth hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else. Forgiveness does not mean that you simply accept what happened and say its OK. Instead, its a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past. 49. The author of the

39、passage tries to make his viewpoint clear _. A. by raising his own examples B. based on his own experience C. by mentioning some studies w.w.w.k.&s.5*u.c.#om D. by mentioning some typical patients50.
