【题目】Some people view a bad situation as a disaster. It’s not. It’s an opportunity. Once your old world collapses(倒塌), you can recover and rebuild. Now you have the chance to start fresh and do things more intelligently. I built my business on an unstable structure. I kept it going for years, but the business collapsed last year. I had to leave my office, selling off all the furniture and equipment. I got kicked out of my apartment because I couldn’t pay the rent. I couldn’t pay my bills or debt. I declared bankruptcy.(破产)

For years there was the worry that this might happen if I didn’t keep straining（尽力） to keep the business going. And my worries were right. What I worried about would happen did happen .But you know what? Going through that experience wasn’t really so bad. It was interesting. Some of it was actually pretty easy. Throughout most of it, I felt increasing relief and a renewed sense of freedom and possibility. All the old baggage was gone. No more office. Fewer possessions. Fewer obligations. No more debt. Most of all , no more straining. Life became a lot easier.

I got a cheaper and smaller apartment. I became debt-free. I learned to live within my means. Those were actually good things. The others were just feelings. The reality wasn’t actually painful. After that, I kept going with the same business but completely changed the business model. I avoided the earlier mistakes, and that business recovered just fine and worked great. It was profitable every year from then on. But I had to go through the collapse first to reach that point.

If you’ve been feeling out of control with your current work or lifestyle, and you’re currently straining to keep it going ,consider letting it go. Try allowing the old world to collapse, many or all of your fears and worries might actually come to pass, but that’s ok. You don’t have to keep the old world alive. If it keeps falling apart on you ,let it collapse. Experiencing the collapse isn’t as bad as fearing the collapse

【题目】Researchers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger’s personality simply by looking at the person’s shoes.

“Shoes convey a thin but useful piece of information about their wearers,” the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality. “Shoes serve a practical purpose, and also serve as nonverbal(非语言的) indications with symbolic messages. People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear.”

Medical Daily notes that the details detected in the study include a person’s general age, sex, income, political affiliation(派别), and other personality characteristics, including someone’s emotional stability.

Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style, cost, color, and condition of someone’s shoes. In the study, 63 University of Kansas students looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study’s participants. Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes, and then filled out a personality questionnaire.

So, some of the results were expected: People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes, and flashier footwear was typically worn by extroverts(外向者).

However, some of the more specific results are interesting. For example, “practical and functional” shoes were generally worn by more “agreeable” people, while ankle boots went more closely with “aggressive” personalities.

The strangers of all may be that those who wore “uncomfortable looking” shoes tend to have “calm” personalities.

And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take exceptional care of them, you may suffer from “attachment anxiety”, spending a large amount of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance.

There was even a political calculation in the mix with more liberal types wearing “shabbier and less expensive” shoes.

The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personality characteristics, but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were showing deep awareness into their personalities.

【1】According to Omri Gillath, a stranger’s personality can be judged by ___.

A. the age and sex of the person

B. the personality questionnaire by the person

C. the emotional stability of the person

D. the shoes the person wearst

【2】We can infer from Paragraph 2 that ___.

A. a practical purpose is to wear shoes

B. people want to buy new shoes they pay attention to

C. shoes are vital to their wearers

D. the Journal of Research in Personality is a magazine

【3】The underlined word “agreeable” is closest in meaning to __.

A. gentle B. weak C. generous D. considerate

【4】 Which might be the best title for the passage?

A. Good Shoes, Good Character

B. Bad Shoes, Bad Personality

C. Shoes and Their Wearers’ Personality

D. Shoes Shape A Person’s Character

【题目】Recently a man came to me，because he was told that there was fluid around his heart. After trying many drugs which were of no use to reduce the fluid，he was told the only other choice was to have an operation. He refused because he knew that every illness has a mental cause and that if he had the operation but did not clear the mental cause，the fluid would return. At last，he searched the Internet to find a metaphysical healer (自然力治疗师)，and he found me.

The mental cause of his disease was an experience of breaking up five years ago with several friends，whom he had known for over twenty years. This experience broke his heart. Not knowing how to “mend” his broken heart，his body created a “repair” by surrounding his heart with fluid to protect it from the sad feelings.

Our work focused on reminding him of the feelings of being loved and forgiving his friends. Months later，his heart was mended and the fluid disappeared. He left my office after the final session with a smile on his face and a spring in his steps.

The key is: to create a healthy body，you must be healthy not only in body，but also in mind.

To be mentally healthy，you need to build up strong relationships. Creating strong relationships will insure that you are accompanied by a network of loving persons. It is important for building a support system that boosts your spirits. Even when you are alone，you will not feel lonely or upset. Strong relationships are not spaceships－they are not hard to build.

A．Old friendship is easy to lose.

Lack of water creates a survival problem for all desert animals.And animals can live only within a relatively narrow temperature range.For four or five months of the year，the daily temperatures in the desert may actually go beyond this range.So survival for desert animals is very difficult.

Fortunately，most desert animals have evolved (进化) to solve the heat and water problems the desert environment creates.

Take Phainopepla, a slim black bird for example. It breeds during the relatively cool spring，then leave the desert for cooler areas.Many birds are active only at dawn and within a few hours of sunset.Some birds，such as the kingbird，continue activity throughout the day，but always fly or sit in the shade.

A few desert animals，such as the Roundtailed Ground Squirrel，sleep away the hottest part of the summer.They also hibernate (冬眠) in winter to avoid the cold season.Some desert animals such as Desert Toads，stay deep under the ground until the summer rains fill ponds. They then come out from under the ground，breed，lay eggs and supply themselves with food and water for another long period.Some smaller desert animals make a hole below the surface of the soil or sand to escape the high temperatures at the desert surface.

Certain desert lizards (蜥蝎) are active during the hottest seasons，and move extremely rapidly over hot surfaces，stopping in cooler “islands” of shade.Even their legs may be longer so they absorb less surface heat while running.

【1】How many survival problems are mentioned for desert animals in Paragraph 1 ?

A．One.

B．Two.

C．Three.

D．Four.

【2】When can we have the highest chance to see many birds in a desert?

A．In early afternoon.

B．Around midday.

C．In early morning.

D．In late morning.

【3】The Roundtailed Ground Squirrel escapes the extreme temperatures by________.

A．sitting in the shade

B．lying in a hole

C．stopping its activity

D．moving to cool habitats

【4】According to the passage，which of the following are the most active desert animals?

A．Lizards.

B．Desert Toads.

C．Phainopepla.

D．Roundtailed Ground Squirrel.

【5】What would be the best title for the passage?

A．Survival of Desert Animals.

B．Evolution of Desert Animals.

C．Dangers of Desert Animals.

D．Hibernation of Desert Animals.

【题目】When __________ different cultures, we often pay attention only to the differences without noticing the many similarities.

A. compared B. being compared

C. comparing D. having compared
