18．Not next to me，please！
When you are traveling by plane，there are some passengers you just don't want to have next to you．
A（16）APerhaps you normally like them，but when you are sitting next to them on a plane it's a different thing．They usually spend all the flight moving around and dropping their toys on the floor，and when they're drinking their orange juice it ends up on your trousers．（17）E．So you can't have the little sleep that you were panning．
B Conversation makers
You recognize this type as soon as you sit down they immediately start talki ng about the plane，or the weather，or they ask you a personal question．It's very difficult not to talk to these people．（18）GC Nervous fliers

15．Imagine being asked to spend twelve or so years of your life in a society that consisted only of members of your own sex，how would you react？（36）D  But the fact is that segregated（隔离）schools shoot up very rapidly around the world，and so many parents choose to force such abnormal conditions on their children-conditions which they themselves wouldn't put up with for one minute!
（37）GThose advocates of segregated schools argue that children from segregated schools have greater achievements academically，socially in athletic and have greater self-confidence．Further，there are many more practical advantages in segregated schools：adolescent problems can be dealt with better and more easily．（38）B It is a wonderful proof of their worth．
On the other side．those advocates of co-education point out that any discussion of this topic is bound to question the aims of education．One of the chief aims of education is equip future citizens with all they require to take their places in adult society which is made up of men and women．When segregated，boys and girls are made to feel that they are a race apart．Competition between the sexes is developed．（39）C Children from segregated schools sometimes lack healthy attitude to life that co-education encourages．
To sum up，every coin has double sides．（40）FIt is about time somebody explorded that theory about segregated schools being the better place for your children．

A．You would react as if you were a puzzled parent．
B．Lastly in many countries，the most famous schools are segregated．
C．Anyone entering adult society after years of segregation can only be in for a shock．
D．Unless there was something wrong with you，you wouldn't be too happy about it．
E．When segregated，boys and girls can focus on their study．
F．However，I believe it's far more beneficial for boys and girls to learn and play together．
G．Many sociologists and educationalists present their views on this issue from both sides．
4．A great many people are disappointed because of unrealistic expectations．

19．As the new semester begins，millions of college students across the country are trying hard to remember how best to write a paper or，more likely，how best to delay that paper．
Procrastination is the thief of time and a lot of students suffer form it．They can spend whole days in the library doing nothing but staring into space，eating snacks，surfing the Internet，watching videos and looking at other students sitting around them，who，most likely are doing nothing either．
Paralyzed （使失去活力） by their habit to procrastinate，they write micro blogs about their fears，asking their online friends if they sometimes have the same issue．But this does nothing to break the spell （魔咒）．
According to a recent report，95percent of us procrastinate at some point and 20percent of the world's population are always procrastinating．The figures are disappointing．Procrastinators are less wealthy，less healthy and less happy than those who don't delay．Procrastinators like to find excuses to justify their behavior，but BBC columnist Rowan Pelling says they are all wrong．
Many procrastinators tell themselves they are perfectionists who work best under pressure．Pelling says this is non sense，as work done at the last minute is more likely to have mistakes than work done on time．The behavior of procrastinators often makes them feel ashamed，inconveniences others and annoys loved ones．
Pelling also points out that procrastination feels particularly delinquent（过失的） in a society that thinks of speedy action as admirable，and，at times，even as a moral good．
Fortunately，social scientists have thrown their weight behind efforts to understand this behavioral mistake and offer strategies to control it．Piers Steel，a Canadian social scientist and author of The Procrastination Equation，believes human is"designed"to procrastinate．Nevertheless，he suggests a couple of good ways to get through the task at hand．

64．Which behavior belongs to procrastination？D
A．Never dream away the time．
B．Always complete the tasks ahead of time．
C．Never put off till tomorrow what should be done today．
D．Always wait to work until the"good mood"or"good time"．
65．According to the passage，which of the following statements is NOT TRUE？C
A．Procrastination makes people waste their time．
B．Speedy action is considered as a moral standard in the society．
C．procrastinators usually complete their tasks perfectly．
D．Procrastination is common among people．
66．What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows？D
A．Ways to handle the study pressures．
B．Introduction to the book The Procrastination Equation．
C．More examples to illustrate procrastination
D．Measures to deal with procrastination．
