Mark felt that it was time for him, to take part in his community, so he went to the neighborhood meeting after work. The area’s city councilwoman(女议员) was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was decreasing. The neighborhood faced many problems.

Mark looked at the charts taped to the walls. There are charts for parking problems, crime, and for problems in vacant buildings. People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilwoman.

It was too much for Mark. “The problems are too big,” he thought. He turned to the man next to him and said, “I think this is a waste of my time. Nothing I could do would make a difference here.”

Mark thought some more on his way to the bus stop. “People should just take care of themselves,” he decided. “That’s enough to do. I can’t take on all the problems of the world.”

As he neared the bus stop, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery bag and a baby. She was trying to unlock her can but she didn’t have a free hand. As Mark got closer her other child, a little boy, suddenly darted into the street. The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and the groceries started to fall out. Mark ran to take the boy’s arm and led him back to his mother. Then he picked up the groceries while the woman smiled in relief. “Thanks!” she said. “You’ve got great timing!”

“Just being neighborly,” Mark said. As he rode home, he glanced at the walls of the bus. On one of them was “Small acts of kindness add up.” Mark smiled and thought, “Maybe that’s a good place to start.”

21.In Mark’s opinion, ______.

A.nobody was so able as to solve the problems

B.he was not in the position to solve such problems

C.many people were too selfish to think about others

D.he already had more than enough work to do

22.What is the implication of the Words on the bus wall?

A.You should be kind to your neighbors and they will treat you the same way.

B.Everyone can play his own part to make things better.

C.All small acts will add up to kindness.

D.It’s a small act to help a person in need.

23. The passage is mainly about ______.

A.how individuals can help make a difference

B.running a neighborhood meeting to solve its problems

C. citizens’ reactions to the problems they face

D.solving problems through group action

B

The grass swung gently above a crack in the limestone(石灰岩) and Ludvik Husu realized he had found what he was searching for: a new cave in Slovenia’s dramatic Karst region.

The cave enthusiast, with more than 50 years of experience, told AFP that “the conditions were perfect... all the signs pointed to something beneath” as he felt the air current push up from below.

The 63-year-old had come across a new, 60-meter-deep limestone cave, a discovery that made the headlines this summer in a country that prides itself on its 14,000 underground caves.

The tiny Alpine nation is unusually rich in caves, which are a major tourist attraction. Perhaps the best known is the Postojna cave system, the longest in Europe, discovered by another amateur enthusiast two centuries ago. It extends for 24 kilometers and has offered up valuable finds for biologists.

Stanislav Glazar, a Postojna cave guide, told AFP that more than 150 species have been discovered in the system.

Glazar said Postojna is one of the richest caves in the world “in limestone formations.” The cave, located about 50 kilometers south of the capital Ljubljana, was also home to the world’s first cave tourist train, which began transporting visitors in 1872.

Elsewhere in the Karst region, the cave systems are of historical, cultural and even extraterrestrial interest For instance, the UNESCO-listed Skocjan system was where the European Space Agency sent some astronauts to prepare for life in space.

“Astronauts know that the Karst world is exceptional, in a similar way to the environment in space: you don’t know what to expect at your next step,” said Skocjan Caves director Tomaz Zorman.

But for Husu, it’s the exploration that proves most rewarding. Once he knows there is something beneath, he digs around the crack to widen it and alerts fellow cavers to help gain access. He then uses ropes and a lamp to go down to what are vertical entrances in most caves. But doesn’t he feel scared to enter such unexplored depths?

“You enter a cave out of curiosity—there is no fear! Those who feel fear should stay home,” he said.

24. What was people’s attitude towards Ludvik Husu’s new finding this summer?

A.Critical.   B. Positive.   C. Doubtful.   D. Indifferent

25. What can be learned about the Postojna cave system from Stanislav Glazar’s words?

A.It has little biological value.

B.It has diverse limestone formations.

C.It is the most famous cave system in Europe.

D.It has been open to the public for two centuries.

26.What does the underlined word “extraterrestrial” in the seventh paragraph probably mean?

A.Financial.   B. Political.   C. Alien.    D. Biological.

27.What can be inferred from the text?

A.Slovenia is known for its Karst landforms.

B. Ludvik Husu started exploring caves before he was 13.

C.Slovenia has the most underground caves in the world.

D.Ludvik Husu is often upset about entering unexplored caves.

C

When evaluating people on various psychological tests, psychologists often distinguish between markers of absolute performance and relative performance. Absolute performance reflects the raw measurement of something, like the time it takes to run a mile. Relative performance is how a person rates in relation to their peers, as in what place a runner gets in a race.

The standards we use to evaluate ourselves are almost always relative, as we compare ourselves to our peers and the standards that are most familiar to us. For instance, in my private practice, I have one patient I will call “Omar” who is dependent on social services and makes less than $30,000 per year at his job. While this level of poverty would lead most people to wake up depressed each day, Omar is one of the most optimistic and appreciative individuals I know. Why? Because most of his closest peers—his siblings and friends from childhood—have lives far worse than his.

In contrast to Omar, I have another patient, an adolescent I’ll call “Lena”, whose family has property over $5 million. Lena, however; lives in an upper-class neighborhood where her family is at the lower end of the income level. Though Lena’s family allows her to enjoy possessions and experiences that less than 1% of her peers across the world can share, she consistently feels “less than”. Why? Because Lena doesn’t compare herself to the rest of the world; this is too abstract an exercise for her; as it would be for most of us.

Accordingly; whether a psychologist is psychodynamic or cognitive-behavioral, therapy with individuals struggling with situational or psychological depression aims to solve the problems associated with basing one’s self-worth on comparisons with others. Psychologists try to help people focus on personal growth around the achievement of concrete goals in line with their values, independent of the achievement of others. For all of us, defining these goals, especially during Periods of emotional calm, can go a long way in helping us to avoid the trap of relativity that often leads to situational and psychological depression.

28.What is the function of Paragraph 1?

A.To show the significance of evaluating people.

B.To motivate readers to study psychological tests.

C.To help people perform well in psychological tests.

D.To provide some background information on evaluating people.

29.Why does the author mention his two patients?

A.To measure different achievement

B.To introduce the standards to evaluate people.

C.To explain relative performance with examples.

D. To contrast relative performance and absolute performance.

30.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?

A.Setting goals in life is essential for everyone.

B.It’s important to avoid unhealthy comparisons.

C.A sense of achievement can affect one’s happiness.

D.Improving self1 worth can help get rid of depression.

31.What is the best title for the text?

A.Happiness: Is it all relative?    B.Self-worth: Is it measurable?

C.Self-worth: Is it based on efforts?   D.Happiness: Is it associated with achievement?

D

The values of artistic works, according to cultural relativism, are simply reflections of local and economic conditions. Such a view, however, fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries.

History has witnessed the endless production of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world. It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert hall, as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries. Unique works of this kind are different from today’s popular art, even if they began as works of popular art. They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.

In a 1757 essay, the philosopher David Hume argued that because “the general principles of tastes are uniform in human nature,” the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent. He observed that Homer was still admired after 2000 years. Works of this type, he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.

Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art. For example, evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction. The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before. Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.

32.According to the passage, what do we know about cultural relativism?

A.It relates artistic values to local conditions

B.It introduces different cultural values.

C.It explains the history of artistic works.

D.It excites the human mind throughout the world.

33.In Paragraph 2, the artists are mentioned to show that ______.

A.great works of art can go beyond national boundaries

B.history gives art works special appeal to set them apart

C.popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great arts

D.great artists are skilled at combining various cultures

34.According to Hume, some works of art can exist for centuries because ______.

A.they deal with unchanging features of human nature

B.they establish general principles of art

C.they are created by the world's greatest artists

D.they are results of scientific study

35.Which of the following serve as the title of the passage?

A.Are Great Arts Permanent?   B.Are Popular Arts Universal?

C.Is Human Nature Uniform?   D.Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?

What is the best sport for your body type?

Just because someone has dreamt of playing football from childhood does not mean it is the best sport for him or her. Finding the sport your body is best suited to can make a big difference to how much you enjoy it and how good at it you are.

A person with an ectomorph body type is tall and slim with little fat or muscle. This person has narrow shoulders and hips, and thin arms and legs. Ectomorphs have difficulty putting on weight because of a fast metabolism(新陈代谢).    36   . What suits ectomorphs isendurance sports. Marathon running, swimming, and football are excellent choices for them.   37   , basketball may also be a great option.

Mesomorph body types are the typical image of an athlete. Their arms and legs are muscular and they have broad shoulders and narrow hips. Mesomorphs can put on or lose weight easily and build muscle quickly.    38   . Possibilities range from weightlifting andboxing to cycling for shorter distances.

A person who is an endomorph naturally carries more body fat. They are often short, with a high waist, and well developed upper arms and thighs.    39   , they can be very good atpower sports because of their larger mass. This body type is not suited for agility(敏捷) and speed, but strength activities like wrestling or powerlifting can be a great fit.

It is important to note that the three body types are extremes. No one is 100% ectomorph or completely endomorph.    40   . Another key point is that diet and environment alsocontribute to athletic ability and genetics plays a large part. And the most important thing is to choose a sport you enjoy.

A.Everyone is a bit of a mix

B.If you want to be a world champion

C.If a person with this body type is very tall

D. A person with this body type has more choice of sports

E.For the same reason, it takes them longer to build muscle

F.While it may seem that an endomorph will not be very athletic

G.Endomorphs must work a little harder to maintain a perfect body weight

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

I was in my room, unwilling to head to the community theatre with “my brother” Henry. He was just adopted by my parents recently. I was not in the mood for being onstage with him.

“Kirstie, come here,” my mom called. Following her voice, I found her outside the bathroom, holding a wet book. She gave the book a shake. “Henry’s book was in the bathtub. Did you put it there?” She glared at me, something she never did before Henry came to our home. I didn’t wet his book on purpose. Tears of hurt clouded my eyes. Worse still, she promised to buy him a new copy. My heart ached. Henry was stealing my mother’s love. He was ruining my life.

Meanwhile, Henry was just nearby, absorbed in working on a complicated rope knot(绳结) as usual. Why did a boy like him do the girly work? Far from manly!

Soon, it was time to have to set off to the community theatre. As Henry walked ahead of us to the car, my mom took me aside and said in a low voice, “It’s the first time for Henry to be onstage. Be kind to him, Honey.” I nodded but sighed. Being kind didn’t use to be hard. But after Henry moved in, everything felt different. The theatre used to be a special place for my parents and me. With Henry involved, it didn’t seem so special any more.

Finally, it was our stage time. My heart beat wildly. I forgot my annoyance at Henry for a while. As we kids lined up, ready to act out our short play, I realized how loosely I had tied thedrawstring(束带) on my skirt. Sure enough, my skirt began to drop. Laughter from the audience could be heard, and even though I was wearing shorts under my skirt, I could feel my face burst into flames. However, my hands were full. If only someone could help me out!

注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；

2.续写部分分为两段，每段开头语己为你写好。

Right then, Henry sensed my embarrassment. ______________________________________________________

After the performance, I found Henry and tapped him on the arm gratefully._____________________________
