16.Even if you really enjoy your job,it's still possible to battle boredom as you work.You may not be able to make big changes---or change your job---but you can make small adjustments to your routine that can make every day seem,well,a little less routine.
1.Switch Your Seat
Change your outlook at the office by changing your office.Ask your supervisor to help you find a new desk.Even switching desks with a neighboring coworker can offer a fresh atmosphere.
If it's not possible to change your location,see if you can change your desk's direction.A new view can be just as refreshing as a new location.
2.____________
Start and end your day in a different way.Consider a new mode of transportation,if it's possible.Take a subway.Ride a bike on sunny days.Carpool with a coworker.Use a new route to get to your job.You needn't change it for ever---just long enough to help you escape the boredom.
3.Find a New Work Style
Sick of attending that long-standing Monday morning meeting?Try to change it to the afternoon.
If you find yourself feeling most bored in the afternoons,try to arrange to do your favorite tasks then and tackle less desirable projects in the mornings.
If you usually communicate with coworkers via email and instant messaging,start dealing with people face to face.Increased communication with coworkers may help improve your mood.
4.Get and Set a Goal
If your work is short of objectives,it's no wonder that work has become boring.Identify a goal and set an"achieve by"date for it.
Your goal needn't be lofty as long as you have sufficient enthusiasm for it.Perhaps you want to make a new project.Maybe you'd like to pursue a promotion.Or you may even set a goal of finding a new job altogether.Whatever it is,actively move toward an objective.

8.Many people think of the brain as a mystery.They don't know much about intelligence and how it works.When they do think about what intelligence is,many people believe that a person is born smart,average,or dumb---and stays that way in the whole life.But new research shows that the brain is more like a muscle---it changes and gets stronger when you use it.And scientists have been able to show just how the brain grows and gets stronger when you learn.
Everyone knows that when you lift weights,your muscles get bigger and you get stronger.A person who can't lift 20pounds when he/she starts exercising can get strong enough to lift 100pounds after working out for a long time.That's because the muscles become larger and stronger with exercise.And when you stop exercising,the muscles shrink and you get weaker.That's why people say"Use it or lose it!"
But most people don't know that when they practice and learn new things,parts of their brain change and get larger a lot like muscles do when they exercise.Inside the cortex(皮层) of the brain are billions of tiny nerve cells,called neurons.The nerve cells have branches connecting them to other cells in a complicated network.Communication between these brain cells is what allows us to think and solve problems.When you learn new things,these tiny connections in the brain actually multiply and get stronger.The more you challenge your mind to learn,the more your brain cells grow.Then,things that you once found very hard or even impossible to do----like speaking a foreign language----seem to become easy after learning them for a period of time.The result is a stronger,smarter brain.
Scientists started thinking that the human brain could develop and change when they studied animals'brains.They found out that animals that lived in a challenging environment were more"perspicacious"-----they were better at solving problems and learning new things.
71.According to the first paragraph,C.
A.our brain can remember many more things than we think
B.until now it's impossible to explain the brain's mystery

72.Training muscles is compared toA.
A.developing the brain          
B.doing physical exercise
C.remembering things           
D.learning a new language
73.What is Paragraph 3mainly about?D
A.How scientists find the secrets of the brain.
B.How changes in the muscles affect the brain.
C.The importance of the brain.
D.How the brain works.
74.What does the underlined word"perspicacious"in the last paragraph probably mean?B
A.strong        
B.smart       
C.popular       
D.active
75.The following paragraph will most probably talk aboutC.
A.differences between animals'brains and humans'brains

C.scientists'findings about animals'brains
D.animals'development throughout history.
7.What would Barbie look like if she were average?
According to US artist Nickolay Lamm,she would be a brunette with a rounded face and a much thicker waist.
Frustrated with the unrealistic beauty standards of Barbie and her friends,Lamm took data from Disease Control and Prevention about an average 19-year-old American woman,who is about 163cm tall,with a 84-cm waist. With those measurements,Lamm created a doll.
The doll-s tagline (口号)is"Average is beautiful."
"I think a realistic-size doll is important because when I look at current dolls on the market,they all look like supermodels,"the artist told APF."I just had the impression that the wall of supermodels suggests that something is wrong with you if you don-t look like one.  So I created an alternative to suggest that it's OK to look like a normal person."
The Lammily dolls,which are 27cm tall,have been on sale since last month.
Lammily also has other features. Unlike Barbie and her friends,whose pointed legs would force her to walk on all fours if she were real,Lammily has articulated(枢接的) joints-able to walk,run,and play.  The doll can even be put in a yoga position.
What's more,the Lammily dolls include a sticker package that can help to add real-life marks to the dolls,including freckles,acne,moles,and tattoos.
"You can also add minor cuts and bruises,like ones you'd get from falling down while snowboarding,"Lamm told NBC.
"I feel that,right now.  dolls are very perfect looking,when,in real life,few of us have perfect skin,"Lamm told The Huffington Post."Things like pimples are a natural part of who we are. So,why not give dolls a real treatment?"
As The Huffington. Post said,"Getting kids used to the idea that these things are completely normal and not 6flaws'(缺陷) to be ashamed of can only be a good thing."

38.Why did Nickolay Lamm make the Lammily doll?(No more than 14words) (2marks)Because he doesn't agree with the unrealistic beauty standards of Barbie dolls./Because he wanted to suggest that it is OK to look like a normal person.
39.How is the Lammily doll different from Barbie dolls?(No more than 13words) (3marks)It's modeled after an average young American woman with real life features.
40.What does Lamm mean when he says,"why not give dolls a real treatment?"in the second-to-last paragraph?(No more than 1words) (3marks)Rather than having perfect looks and skins,dolls should look natural with real-life marks.
41.What is the author-s attitude toward Lammily dolls?(No more than 6words) (2marks)He/She is supportive.He/She is in favor of them..
4.Some people are just sure to be failures.That's how some adults look at troublesome kids.Maybe you've heard the saying,"A bird with a broken wing will(50)Cfly as high."I'm sure that T.J.Ware,who was caught(51)Ba year ago,was made to feel this way almost every day at school.
At high school,Ware was always making(52)D.He didn't answer questions,got into lots of fights and was(53)Afrom school at times.Teachers didn't want to have him again the following year.
I met Ware for the first time at a meeting.All the students at school had been invited to(54)Cfor a program designed to have students become more active in their communities.The program (55)Bgroup discussion and voluntary work in their neighborhoods.
In the beginning,Ware just stood by,not ready to join the discussion groups.But slowly,the interactive games(56)Dhim in…At the end of the meeting,he joined the Homeless Project team.He knew much about(57)A,hunger and helplessness.The other students on the team had never seen Ware making such a long,moving speech.They were(58)Cwith his passionate concern and ideas,so they elected Ware to be chairman of the team with a(59)Bvote.
Two weeks later,Ware led a group of 70 students to collect(60)A.They collected a school(61)D:2,854 cans of food in just two hours.It was enough to feed needy families in the area for 75 days.The local newspaper(62)Bthe event with full-page article the next day.After that,Ware started showing up at school every day and answering questions from teachers.

11.The  success  of  a  speech  is  often due to the  skill  of the  speaker  who  is  confident,knowledgeable and able to deliver a speech clearly and effectively.
But often it is not the speakers who write these moving speeches;it is a speechwriter.And polities is one industry in which this practise is common..So what does it take to be a political speechwriter?
According to a recent job  advertisement from the  US Embassy in  Britain,a political speechwriter needs to have excellent interpersonal skills and be able to demonstrate a deep  knowledge of their subject.They must also work closely with speakers and be able to relate  to the speakers'style.
Some believe that the best speechwriters have a-born talent,a natural creative ability,and that speechwriting is an art.
What  about  those  of us  who  ______?Can we  still produce  successful  speeches?
In an interview with the BBC,Dr Atkinson(a communications specialist)outlined a
number of speechwriting techniques.He also explained how the.se techniques have been used in historic speeches.
One such technique is introducing contrast(对比).This is extremely useful when presenting a positive influence on a negative issue.One of the most famous examples of this can be seen in a speech given by former American President John Kennedy:"Ask not what your country can do for you,but what you can do for your country."
Another technique is the use of three-part lists.Dr Atkinson explains that this can be  an excellent way of confirming a statement.Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair was a fan of this technique.One of his most famous campaign Slogans(口号)was"education,education,education".

6.For many years,Hawaii has been a magic name to people who like to travel.People on both sides of the Pacific Ocean,in Japan and in America,dream of seeing these beautiful islands in the middle of the ocean.Their dreams always include one scene of a sunset over the ocean.In the tropical(热带的) lands,the sun drops,like a ball of golden fire,into the sea,and it drops so quickly that you can almost see it move.The sun lights the skies and shines in the quiet water.
People often have a quiet,peaceful time---perfect for a leisurely(悠闲的) walk along the water.This scene is not too different from the dramatic(令人神往的) beauty that greeted the first strangers to these islands centuries ago.They were Polynesian people who came from Tahiti in canoes(独木舟) not much bigger than small boats.
They found the beautiful white sand beaches and the waving palm trees,but there were no giant hotels like the ones we see nowadays.The first people came to Hawaii nearly two thousand years ago,but skyscraper hotels were only built in the last 25years.Now jet planes make it possible to fly to for a weekend from Tokyo.Wherever the people come from,they really want to see the original beauty of Hawaii.They want to see the lovely beaches and the mountain called Diamond Head which is almost hidden by the tall hotels.

49.Hawaii is a nameD.
A.given by people who like to travel
