3．They talked about the contradictory theories of theorigin（起源） of life．
17．A yoga master made a shocking statement that Abraham Lincoln had been a Himalayan yogi in a past life．Lincoln delivered a proclamation setting up Thanksgiving as an American holiday in 1863．Research throws light on a possible Hindu （印度的）origin for the American celebration of Thanksgiving．
"The holiday of Thanksgiving has a Hindu origin，"says Richard Salva，author of a book on the reincarnation （转世）of Abraham Lincoln entitled Soul Journey：From Lincoln to Lindbergh which is based on a statement by the great master of yoga，Paramhamsa Yogananda，who declared that Abraham Lincoln had been a Himalayan yogi in a past life，and that he was reborn as the famous pilot，Charles Lindbergh．
"During my search for signs of a past-life yoga practice，"SaIva said，"I noticed that President Lincoln repeatedly chose Thursdays as national days of prayer，fasting （禁食），and thanksgiving．This was interesting，because Thursday is considered a holy day-a day for prayer，fasting，and spiritual reflection-among Hindus，who call it‘guru day，．"
"Lincoln also set aside time on Thursdays to grieve for his son，Willie，who died in Washington．Clearly，Hiursdays had a spiritual significance in Lincoln's mind．"
In his book，Richard Salva presents more than 500connections between Lincoln9 lindergh，and the ancient spiritual science of yoga．The connections run through every aspect of the human condition and provide convincing evidence that Lincoln had had a Hindu past life．
More than one out of every five Americans today believes in reincarnation-yet few are aware of how past-life pattenis affect them．Soul Journey tries to fill this gap，by offering a substitute experience of reincarnation．Through clear and persuasive similarities between the lives of Lincoln and Lindbergh，the book discovers how the hidden laws of fate and
reincarnation impact the events of his or her daily life．It addresses other issues，such as the secret spiritual history of America's greatest president，including his past life as a Himalayan yogi； the hidden clues that reveal past lives； the greatness he achieved； and the spiritual principles behind the yoga postures that millions now practice．

63．Based on Richard Salva's view，C
A．Hindus started the holiday of Thanksgiving
B．the Americans copied Thanksgiving from Hindus
C．Thanksgiving had Hindus roots
D．Charles Lindbergh had been a Himalayan yogi
64．We can draw a conclusion from the passage thatA．
A．in India Thursday is a religious day
B．in India all the prayers are done on Thursday
C．Abraham Lincoln was once a famous pilot
D．Paramhamsa Yogananda once taught Lincoln yoga
65．It can be inferred from the last paragraph thatB．
A．the book discovers the laws of fate and reincarnation
B．yoga is closely connected with religion
C．the book gives a scientific description of Lincoln's spiritual life
D．Lincoln and Lindbergh must have influenced each other a lot

A．neutral   B．doubtful   C．negative   D．positive．

1．As people slowly learn to cure diseases，control floods，prevent hunger，and stop wars，fewer people die every year．As a result，the population of the world is becoming larger．In 1925 there were about 2 billion people in the world； today there are over 6 billion．
When the number rises，extra mouths must be fed．New lands must be brought under development，or land already farmed must be made to produce more crops．In some areas the land is so over-developed that it will be difficult to make it provide more crops．In some areas the population is so large that the land is divided into too tiny units to make improvement possible with farming methods．If a large part of this farming population went into industrial work，the land might be farmed much more productively （多产地） with modern methods．
There is now a race for science，technology，and industry to keep the output of food rising faster than the number of people to be fed．New types of crops，which will grow well in bad weather，are being developed，so there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle in Siberia and North America．Irrigation （灌溉） and dry-farming methods bring poor lands under the plough．Dams hold back the waters of great rivers，which can provide water for the fields in all seasons and provide electric power for new industries．Industrial chemistry provides fertilizer to suit different soils．Every year，some new methods are made to increase or to protect the food of the world．
48．The author says that the world population is increasing becauseC．
A．there are many rich valleys and large fields
B．farmers are producing more crops than before
C．people are living longer due to better living conditions
D．new lands are being made into farmlands
49．The author says that in areas with large populations，land might be more productively farmed ifC．
A．the land was divided into smaller pieces  
B．people moved into the countryside
C．industrial methods were used in farming  
D．the units of land were much larger
50．We are told that there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle．This has been made  possible byA．
A．growing new types of crops      
B．irrigation and dry-farming means
C．providing fertilizers             
D．destroying pests and diseases
51．Why do some people use dams to hold back waters from great rivers？C
A．To develop a new kind of dry-farming methods．
B．To prevent crops from floods．
C．To provide water and electricity in all seasons．
D．To water poor lands in bad weather．
11．I can well remember the pain．My stomach was sick，my heart hurt，and my eyes painful from holding hack tears．
"You know，Annie，"my friend John said，"Joanna and Andrea were just talking about You．"I immediately got nervous．"They said that the only reason you start on the basketball team is because the coach likes you．It's not because you're good．"I thought I might be sick．"They said they're tired of you always getting what you want．"
I struggled to keep myself from crying，sinking to my knees on the cold floor．After John told me everything my supposed best friends said about me，I was hurt．
Joanna and Andrea came in from lunch break acting as if nothing had happened．Joanna was still my deskmate，and Andrea was still my partner for our history project．I was amazed at their ability to pretend we had perfect friendship，especially since they'd said such hurtful things．
I was a freshman in high school，and I felt like I didn't have a friend in the world，all because of a gossip．
The tongue can be our worst enemy．Gossips harm confidence and separate close friends．They are like sharp knives，cutting one's self-respect into pieces．When we say unkind things about others，we're sticking knives into their hearts．
So how was I to act next？When Joanna and Andrea pretended our friendship hadn't changed，I thought of attacking them back．But instead，I told them directly that they had hurt me．Joanna started crying and Andrea was speechless．I knew they were both sorry for what they had said．They apologized，and I forgave them．Sure，things were a little uncomfortable at first，but soon enough everything was back to the way it had been before．
I still deal with gossip，sometimes as a receiver and sometimes as a sharer．But the more I learn about love，the more I realize the importance of encouraging others-something gossip never does．

24．From the first two paragraphs，we can conclude that Joanna and AndreaC．
A．were grateful that the writer was their friend
B．did not think the writer was the coach's favorite
C．were unhappy about the writer being on the team

A．gossips are sticking knives into people's hearts
B．we couldn't live in a world without gossips，but love can be a helper
C．We have to be patient when we hear gossips about our friends
D．We should be careful around our friends since they may cheat us．
18．They have ______ a plan for reducing the budget deficit（财政赤字），which is quite practical．（　　）

15．I received a call today asking if I would be willing to bring food to a family in need．The mother was having a major operation and would be lying down for several weeks．Of course，I responded with an immediate"Yes！"．As I planned the meal in my head，I reflected on how many times over the years I had been asked to prepare food．I have done so countless times with a very open heart．
But the truly amazing thing is that I have received double over the course of my life．When my mother passed away，our house was filled with fresh dinners for weeks．A woman from the church of our community stopped by each evening with some food．The gift of food was her small way of trying to ease our pain．
Later in my life，when I was on bed rest during my pregnancy with twins，women of the church again stepped in to help．They arranged babysitting for my two year old daughter，and brought lovely dinners to our house．Even when I was put in the hospital，my husband would bring cooked meals to my hospital room．How we relied on these dinners to feed my tired husband and young daughter．
Food is all about comfort．It feeds our bodies，but it can also feed our souls．When you hear people talking about their favorite holidays，it usually includes their feelings connected with sharing food．I know that I will have many more opportunities in my lifetime to prepare food for others．It is truly a gift I want to prepare and deliver to someone in need．

B．she is a church member
C．she is friendly to others

C．was glad to be able to lend a hand

B．Her family lives not far from a church．
C．Her husband is not good at cooking．
D．She has a babysitter taking care of her twins．

A．A good beginning makes a good ending．
B．One good turn deserves another．
C．Actions speak louder than words．
