The lake

The day when Robert was born was the happiest day of my life. Unfortunately my wife decided she no longer wanted to be married to me. My little boy and I had to 31 , only getting to see each other every other weekend.

One day, I decided to go fishing with my son, who was about 5 years old, at a nearby lake. We arrived at the lake early. Getting out of the car, we

B．when did we meet D．where will we meet

brought out all the fishing equipment and our life jackets and the cooler that had our tasty lunch in it. I could just 32 the day in my mind in hopes that it would never end. We both went out onto the dock（船坞）and I thought, “Do I put his life jacket on first or load the boat first?” I saw him skipping rocks on the water, so I decided to load the boat first.

I was just finishing up when I heard the splash. I turned and looked quickly expecting to see Robert 33 standing there, but I did not see him anywhere. I jumped into the water to save my son immediately. I searched and searched but found him nowhere. I came up for a breath hoping to see him above water, no wondering how I could find him in the murky（浑浊的）water. I finally decided to go all the way to the bottom and 34 around, not coming up until I found him.

Finally, there on the bottom he was, his arms wrapped around the wooden pole that holds up the dark. I brought him to the 35 and put him on the bank. While both of us were coughing and spitting out water, I just hugged him and was 36 that I had found him in time.

When things finally calmed down, I asked one simple question, “Robert, why were you 37 onto that pole on the bottom of the lake?” He looked at me with the most innocent and loving eyes and simple replied, “I was waiting for you, Daddy. I knew you would come to 38 me.”

I thought that I could not be any 39 or any madder at the same time and I just told him, “I sure do love you, sweetheart.” He replied, “I love you too, Dad.”

There is no amount of money or cars or jobs or any material thing that could replace being loved and 40 someone so much. I am lucky to have the ability to forgive on the same level. 31. A．back 32. A．picture 33. A．carefully

World Wonders

Our world has many famous landmarks. A landmark is a building or place that is special to an area. Some landmarks are built by people. Other landmarks are things in nature, such as a volcano or a waterfall. Here are four famous landmarks built by people.

Machu Picchu Machu Picchu was once a city located high in the Andes Mountains in Peru. Its name means “old peak”. The city was built nearly 600 years ago. The remains of about 200 stone buildings are found Andes Mountains, Peru there. They include palaces, temples and homes. Great Sphinx The Great Sphinx is a huge statue. It has the head of a person and the body of a lion. It was built more than 4,000 years ago. No one knows for sure why it was built. Some say it honors an ancient Giza, Egypt

king. 6

Leaning Tower of Pisa The Leaning Tower of Pisa is a bell tower. It was built on soft soil. That caused the tower to lean to one side soon after workers began building it more than 800 years ago. Visitors can climb about Pisa, Italy 300 steps inside to see great view of the city. Sydney Opera House The Sydney Opera house was built from 1957 to 1973. This performing arts center looks like a ship with sails. It is located on a piece of land inside a harbor. A harbor is a part of a body of water Sydney, Australia where ships can stay safe from storms. 41. Where is Machu Picchu?

I found the black and white cat on m front doorway. He was crying like a human baby. Where did he come from? I noticed he had no collar（项圈）. Who would be so careless?

I went inside and brought out a can of fish. The cat hungrily ate it up and then walked right inside the house.

7

B．The head of a person. D．A ship with sails.

B．Great Sphinx. D．Sydney Opera House.

I wanted to get him out, but I hesitated. Out family never owned pets, but I had always wanted one.

Just then, the cat meowed and jumped up onto my leg. Well, he seemed to like me! Maybe I didn’t have to give him back after all!

The cat kept meowing a lot. I knew I had to go to the store and get some cat food. On my way out, I saw a sign on the telephone pole:

LOST CAT

Black and white, very friendly. If you find him, please call us at 617-58463302. We are worried sick.

“Hmm.” I thought. “If you were so worried about your cat, maybe you should have taken better care of him!”

When I walked into the pet store, I saw a group of kids hanging up notices about this same cat there.

“I can’t believe I lost my cat!” a little boy in a wheelchair cried to his parents. “I couldn’t get to the open door in time!”

I looked at the notices on the wall. It was surely the cat I had back at home. Then the truth of the situation hit me: I had stolen a little boy’s cat!

Now I realized there was a lot I didn’t understand. I tried to explain why I should keep the cat by convincing myself the owners deserved to lose him. Now I saw that it was all a big mistake.

I walked to the little boy.

“I have your cat,” I told him. “I’m sorry. I just found him and fed him. He’s at my house.”

The little boy began to cry with laughter. He blew his nose and gave me a great big hug. “Thank you so much! I was just about to put a new collar on him when he ran out of the door. I couldn’t chase him! Because of my… you know… my legs.”

“I’ll be right back,” I told him. I ran home to get the cat and reunite owner and pet.

Need to buy something? Why go to a store? Buy it on the Internet! Need it now? Why wait? Ask for next-day delivery! Each day, more and more people try online shopping. In fact, online sales have doubled in the last ten years. But not everyone is excited. Some scientists now say that online shopping is bad for the environment.

People are surprised to hear this. “They think, „I don’t need to drive, and the business doesn’t need to build a store, so there will be less pollution,” says Nuria Prost, an environmental scientist. “But it is not so simple. In fact, online shopping is wasteful. It also adds to air pollution.”

In truth, the Internet is not always as good as a friend to the environment as it seems. For example, most people thought that the Internet would help offices use less paper and other materials. But paper us increased by 33%

between 1986 and 1997. “Online shopping could have similarly negative effects.” says Neil Cohen, a professor of environmental science.

Part of the problem is what people are buying these days. In the past, people bought things on the Internet that did not require much packing material, such as books and clothing. But now people also shop online for large, heavy products such as televisions, computers, and furniture. These products need to be packed in large amounts of plastic and paper. This creates a lot of waste.

Another problem caused by online shopping is air pollution. When customers buy products and ask for next-day delivery, companies often have to send them by air. Airplanes use much more fuel than cars and produce more carbon dioxide (CO2). When people by a lot of different things from different online business, this creates even more travel by airplane.

Online product returns are also a problem. For example, an online shoe store may allow customers to return shoes without extra pay if they are the wrong size. This doubles the packing material and number of airplane trips required to sell one pair of shoes.

“If people want to protect the environment they need to think before they shop,” says Prost. “People need to ask themselves: Is this exactly what I want? Do I really need it tomorrow, or can I wait?” Online stores an also charge（收费）customers for returns. This may make people shop more carefully. “Online shopping is fast and easy,” says Prost, “but we can’t forget the negative effects it has on the environment.”

48. What does online shopping create a lot of waste?

A．Because companies charge more for product returns. B．Because people but too many things they don’t need. C．Because paper use has increased by 33% from 1986 to 1997. D．Because large, heavy products require much packing material. 49. What do companies do to meet the needs of next-day delivery?

10

A．Prepare more products. C．Send the products by air. 50. Prost probably agrees that _______.

B．Get more workers to pack. D．Open more stores in cities.

A．people should drive to stores to buy things B．online shopping adds pollution to the environment C．online shopping saves more than shopping in a store D．people can buy things online without careful consideration 51. What is probably the best title of the passage?

A．A Good Deal to Make? C．A Cleaner Way to Shop?

D

“You expect your friends to see you in a positive manner, but they are also observers of the personalities that could cause you an early death,” said Joshua Jackson, an assistant professor of psychology in Arts & Sciences.

Published in the journal Psychological Science, the study that your personality at an early age can predict how long you will live across 75 years and that close friends are usually better than you at recognizing these traits. “Our study shows that people are able to observe and evaluate（评价）a friend’s personality exactly enough to predict early death years down the road,” Jackson said. “It suggests that people are able to see important characteristics related to health even when their friends were, for the most part, healthy and many years from death.”

While other studies have shown that a person’s view of his or her own personality can be helpful in evaluating death risks, there has been little research on whether a close friend’s personality evaluation might also predict the chances of a long life.

To explore this question, Jackson and colleagues analyzed data（数据）from a longitudinal study that in the 1930s began following a group of young people in their mid-20s. the study included wide-ranging data on participant

11

B．A Different Lifestyle to Keep? D．A New Business to Start?

（参与者）personalities, both self-reported and as reported by close friends.

Using information from follow-up studies and searches of death certificates（证书）, Jackson and colleagues were able to record dates of death for all but a few study participants. Peer（同龄人）evaluations of personality were stronger predictors of death risks than were self-evaluations of personality.

“There are two possible reasons for the advantage of peer evaluations over self evaluations,” Jackson said, “First, friends may see something that you miss; they may have some insight that you do not. Second, because people have several friends, we are able to average the characteristics of any one friend to get a more trustworthy evaluation of personality. With self-reports, people may miss certain sides of themselves and we are not able to counteract（抵抗）that because there is only one you, only one self-report.”

The study also shows some gender differences in self-evaluation: Men’s self-evaluations of personality were somewhat useful in predicting their lifespans（寿命）, whereas the self-reports of women had little predictive value.

“This is one of the longest studies in psychology,” Jackson said. “It shows how important personality is in influencing important life outcomes like health, and that information from friends can play a critical role in understanding a person’s health issues.” 52. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?

A．People’s health is related to their friends. B．Friends can predict lifespans better than us. C．An early personality evaluation helps us live longer. D．The study shows most people can live across 75 years.

53. The underlined word “insight” in Paragraph 6 probably means“_______”.

A．advice C．imagination

B．influence D．understanding

. Which of the following if TRUE according to the passage?

12

A．People with more close friends have better personality. B．Self-evaluations have advantages over peer evaluations. C．Men predict their lifespans more exactly than women. D．The findings are based on participants’ disease data. 55. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．Friend’s personality evaluations can help recognize health risks. B．Best friends play an important role in treating certain diseases. C．Psychology studies may influence personality development. D．Personality has little important effect on people’s heath.

Do you worry about your health? Have you tried to run or walk for exercise and then quit? If you answer yes, you should try a new type of exercise: aquatic exercise. Aquatic exercise is a king of exercise you do in a swimming pool. For example, you can run, walk, or even do a mind-body practice, such as yoga.

More and more people are trying aquatic exercise. In the United States, the number has grown by 25% in recent years. People in other countries are also doing aquatic exercise more frequently.

Aquatic exercise has many benefits. First of all, it feels easier than exercising on land. Why? You weight about 90% less in the pool. It is also better for your knees than running or walking.

Aquatic exercise feels easy, but you still burn calories（卡）. Water is 1,000 times thicker and heavier than air. In the same amount of time, you can burn more calories in the pool than in the gym. That’s because it takes more energy to move in the water.

But what if you are scared of the water? No problem! There is nothing to worry about. Aquatic exercise is safe and easy to learn. It doesn’t require any special skills. For most kinds of aquatic exercise, you don’t even need to know how to swim.

In fact, most people say they feel more relaxed in the water. They stop thinking about the things that make them anxious. The cool and quiet environment makes them exercise more.

Aquatic exercise is suitable for everyone. You can do it at any age. It can

14

even help people who have been hurt in accidents. With aquatic exercise, they can move in ways they can’t on land. For example, some people who can’t walk end even run in the water.

So are you looking for a fun new way to improve your health? Why not try? Join the millions of people who are burning calories while keeping cool in the pool.

61. Where do people do aquatic exercise?

62. Why do people burn more calories while doing aquatic exercise?

63. Is it difficult to learn aquatic exercise?

. Who is aquatic exercise suitable for?
