11.Need for closure is a psychological term that describes a person's desire for a firm
answer to a question.Our need for closure is our natural preference for definite answers over confusion and uncertainty.Every person has their own baseline level of need for closure.It likely evolved via natural selection.
What I find really fascinating is how our need for closure is affected by the situation we're in.Our need for closure rises when we have to act rather than just observe,and it matters much more when we're rushed,or bored,or tired.Any stress can make our discomfort with uncertainty increase,and a high need for closure negatively influences some of our most important decisions:who we decide to trust,whether we admit we're wrong and even how creative we are.
In hiring,for instance,a high need for closure leads people to put far too much weight on their first impression.It's called the Urgency Effect.In one experiment,psychologists tried to lower people's need for closure by telling them,right before participants are about to make various judgments of a job candidate,that they'll be responsible in some way for them,or that their judgments have serious consequences.
In making any big decision,it's not enough just to know that we should take our time.
We all know that important decisions shouldn't be rushed.The problem is that we don't keep that advice in mind when it matters.So,one of the best solutions is to formalize the reminders.
Before making important decisions,write down not just advantages and disadvantages but what the consequences could be.Also,think about how much pressure you're under.If your need for closure is particularly high that day,it's even more important to think twice.
32.How does"need for closure"probably come into being?A
A.By nature.B.By accident.C.By acquiring.D.By imitating.
33.It can be inferred that a high need for closureC.
A.brings about more stress      
B.causes discomfort and uncertainty
C.leads to not so good decisions  
D.promotes one's creativity
34.In the experiment the psychologists reduced participants'need for closure by telling them toA.
A.be cautious about their judgments
B.value their first impression
C.be responsible for their boss
D.pay little attention to the consequences
35.What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?D
A Another strategy to escape the pressures of modern life.
B.Some serious consequences of making decisions.
C.Other approaches to making important decisions.
D.More helpful solutions to high need for closure.
18.The new high speed railway line between Urumqi,capital of the Xinjiang Uygur self-governing region,and Lanzhou,capital of Gansu province,has cut train travel time by half to less than 12 hours.
The dramatic improvement will benefit many families planning reunions for Spring Festival.
"For the first time,I feel home is not that far away after all,"said Liang shaofu as he boarded a high speed train in Urumqi with six members of his family.
The 35 year old left Lanzhou to set up a dry fruit business in Xinjiang eight years ago,and he has now settled in Urumqi.
The 1,776 km line,which passes through Qinghai province and is the country's first high speed railway built in a high altitude region,came into service on Dec 26.
"We normally drive home for Spring Festival to avoid the difficulties of buying seven train tickets for the whole family during the peak season,"Liang said."Driving can be very tiring and dangerous sometimes,so one year we even decided not to go back to Lanzhou simply to avoid the trip.
More than 600,000 passengers traveled on the line during its first month,and the Urumqi Railway Bureau said the introduction of high speed services will ease transport pressure during the Spring Festival peak season.
The existing usual railway line could no longer support Xinjiang's development.All passenger trains will gradually shift to the new link,leaving the old one to be used for goods.As a result,Xinjiang's annual goods ability could reach 200 million metric tons from the current 70 million.
The line passes through areas that experience high winds,and it also crosses parts of the deserted Qinghai Tibet Plateau and the bone dry sands of the Gobi Desert.
The project could help China to promote its high speed railway technology abroad,said Ma Xizhang,director of the Lanzhou Xinjiang railway project's management department in Xinjiang.
21. How long did it take to go from Urumqi to Lanzhou by the usual train before?D
A.about 12 hours.
B.About 6 hours.
C.About 18 hours.
D.About 24 hours.
22.What's the main advantage of the new high speed railway?D
A.It takes more time to go to Urumqi to Lanzhou.
B.It will be more convenient for people all over the country to Xinjiang.
C.All the people in Lanzhou can return home on festivals.
D.It helps to improve Xinjiang's development.
23.From the passage we can learnB.
A.Xinjiang's annual goods ability can increase nearly four times
B.the new railway technology may help more railway lines to be built abroad
C.the high speed railway lines can't be built across the bone dry sands
D.the old railway lines can only carry goods now
24.Which of the following is true according to the passage?C
A.The new high speed railway line is good for all people to go home.
B.The new high speed railway line benefits businessmen to carry goods.
C.Taking the new train is safer than driving home from Urumqi to Lanzhou.
D.Businessmen seldom went home for Spring Festival before.
16.根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.
Whether you're a child,teenager,young adult or are middle-aged,respect for your parents is an important value.Your parents are the people who raised you,devoting time,energy and money to your development.(36)E No matter your age,there are 5ways to show respect.
●Respect their belongings.
One important way to show respect is to show regard for the things important to your parents.For younger children,this may mean not touching jewelry or other valuable things.For grown children,respect may mean returning a borrowed tool in good condition and on time.Lack of respect for a parent's belongings is a violation of personal boundaries.(37)G And never borrow things without asking first.
●Punctuality.
(38)C  Therefore,always be on time.For teenagers,showing up on time means coming home by curfew(宵禁).Adult children should show up on time for family dinners or events,or to pick a parent up for a medical appointment.Call if you're going to be late because parents worry about children,no matter their age.
●(39)B
Remembering birthdays,anniversaries and other special days is a sign that you honor your parents.Make plans to take them to lunch or dinner or bake a cake or cookies.Most parents don't expect expensive gifts,but a handmade gift is always appreciated.A phone call from a grown child who lives too far for a visit is a welcome sign of respect.
●Be kind.
Kind words and affection are simple ways to show respect.Tell your parents you love them.Listen and allow your parents to speak without interruption.Show a sincere interest in what your parents have to say.Be patient with your parents and don't rush them.Never talk back or be rude or disrespectful.Acknowledge your parents'achievements.(40)D

A.Be a good listener.
B.Celebrate with them.
C.Lateness indicates a lack of respect.
D.Treat your parents the way you would like to be treated.
E.And they love you unconditionally throughout your life.
F.Being respectful helps build positive relationships with others.
G.Don't take advantage of your parents'kindness and generosity.
