16.In many countries there are different special customs when a child's baby teeth fall out.Many of these customs tell stories about animals taking the teeth.
For example,Koreans have the custom of throwing the fallen tooth onto the roof of a house so that a magpie (喜鹊) can take the tooth away and bring a new tooth for the child.This custom is also followed by some other Asian countries,such as Japan and Vietnam.
Other countries,though,have tooth customs about other animals.In Mexico and Spain,for example,it is thought that a mouse takes a fallen tooth away and leaves some money.But in Mongolia,it is dogs that take children's teeth away.Dogs are highly respected in Mongolian culture.It is believed that the new tooth will grow strong if the baby tooth is fed to a dog,so parents in Mongolia will put their children's fallen teeth in a piece of meat and feed it to a dog.
In France and the USA,a child will put a fallen tooth under his or her pillow before going to bed.It is thought that in the early morning,when the child is still sleeping,the Tooth Fairy will take the tooth away and leave something else under the pillow.What she will leave is hard to know.It is said that in France the Tooth Fairy may leave some candies; however,in the United States,she may leave money.

A.get money       B.get a new tooth        C.get candies      D.feed magpies

A famous professor was known for his interesting lessons,which attracted plenty of students to his class.This time,when the class began,he picked up a very large and __ jar and began to fill it with golf balls.He asked the students if the jar was full.They __ that it was.The professor picked up a box of small pebbles (截卵石) and __ them into the jar.He shook the jar __ to let the pebbles roll into the open __ between the golf balls.When asked if the jar was full,they __ with a firm “Yes”.

Then the professor poured a box of sand into the jar,which seemingly __ all the remaining space.The same question was asked and the same answer was given.The professor then __ two cans of beer from under the table and poured the __ contents into the jar,filling the empty space between the sand.

“Now,” said the professor,“I want you to recognize that this jar __ your life.The golf balls are the most __ things--your family,your children,your health and your friends.If everything else was lost and only they __ your life would still be full.The __ can be the other things that __ like your job,your house,your car.The sand is everything else--the small stuff.If you put the sand into the jar first,” he __.“there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for __.If you spend all your time and __ on the small stuff,you will never have __ for the things that are more important to you.Take care of the golf balls first,the things that really matter.The rest is just sand.”

One of the students put up her hand and __ what the beer represented.The professor smiled.“I’m glad you asked this.It just goes to show you that,no matter how __ your life may seem,there’s always room for a can of beer.”

12.Thousands of people began pouring into Pennsylvania from other states.They wanted to buy lottery tickets(彩票).The tickets cost only 0.9 each.Butthatsmallspendingcouldbringthemarewardof 90 million.That was the second largest lottery jackpot (积累奖金)in history.
More than 87 million tickets were bought for the Pennsylvania lottery drawing.Those who bought tickets had to choose seven numbers from 1 to 80.The chance of winning was one in 9.6 million,but that little chance certainly didn't affect ticket sales.In the last few days before the drawing,tickets were sold at the unbelievable rate of 500 per second.
Experts say many people buy lottery tickets because they just want to have a piece of the action.Others say the lottery is a stock market for poor people.It allows them to dream about wealth they'll probably never have.
But many people believe lotteries are no better than legalized gambling.Some critics note that most people who play are poor and may not be able to afford the tickets.There are also many addicts who take the game seriously.They may pour their life savings into lottery tickets.Some clubs have been formed to help them kick the habit.
Politicians like lotteries because they provide money that would otherwise have to come from new taxes.The profits from lotteries are usually used to pay for education or programs for senior citizens.But critics say this arrangement just allows states to legalize vice,under the name of social progress.Whether you regard stock lotteries right or not,you cannot refuse to accept their extreme popularity with many Americans.

25.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?B
A.Buying lotteries may help people become wealthy overnight.
B.Politicians like lotteries because they don't have to pay extra taxes.
C.The profits from lotteries are usually used for the public.
D.Some critics don't like lotteries because many poor people waste money on them.
26.In just one hour in the last few days,the Pennsylvania lottery sold tickets totalingB.
A.16.2 million
B.38.88 million    
C.19.6 million
D.87 million
27.The underlined word in the last paragraph refers toC.
A.something profitable  
B.something challenging
C.something immoral    
D.something easy
28.What is the main purpose of the passage?D
A.To introduce the lotteries in Pennsylvania.
B.To persuade people not to buy lotteries.
C.To show the drawbacks of buying lotteries.
D.To tell us the different opinions on lotteries.
11.The subtitle of my 1995 book Emotional Intelligence(EI) reads,"Why It Can Matter More Than IQ."That subtitle,unfortunately,has led to misunderstandings of what I actually say.Some people even make the absurd claim that"EI accounts for 80 percent of success."
I was reminded this again when looking through comments on an Australian study that fails to find much of a connection between teenagers'level of emotional intelligence and their academic achievements.For me,there's no surprise here.But for those misguided people who think I claim EI matters more than IQ for academic achievement,it would be a"Gotcha!"moment.
My argument is actually that emotional and social skills give people advantages in areas where such abilities make the most difference,like love and leadership.EI does better than IQ in"soft"areas,where intelligence matters relatively little for success.That said,another such area where EI matters more than IQ is in performance at work,when comparing people with roughly the same educational backgrounds like MBAs or accountants.
IQ is a much stronger predictor than EI of which jobs or professions people can enter.However,having enough intelligence to hold a given job does not by itself predict whether one will be a star performer or rise to management or leadership positions in one's field.In part this is because everyone at the top level of a given profession has already been examined for intelligence.At those top levels a high IQ becomes a basic ability,one needed just to get into and stay in the game.
The one place I expect we will be seeing more data showing a relationship between skills in the emotional and social area and school performance will be in studies of children who have gone through social/emotional learning (SEL) programs.These courses give students the self-management skills they need to learn better.And so to the degree that advantage promotes learning,they should do better on academic achievement scores.A study from the University of Illinois finds around a 10 percent increase in achievement test scores among these students.Probably,the SEL programs would also have meant higher scores on the particular assessment of EI used in the Australian study,and so if they had tested such children,there may well have been a positive connection.
So learning seems to be another area where EI may matter-whether more than IQ is a question based on experience.
