Two days （33）A talking to Michelle，I subconsciously sat down on the bench and started playing．I wasn't even trying to make the notes sound musically correct…I was simply doing what I should have been this entire time：playing，（34）D to be playing．
As the music spread，a（n）（35）Bfeeling rose inside me．

3．The passengers on the subway who caught a glimpse of me may have thought I was strange．In particular a gentleman sitting opposite me was always staring at me，looking at the cheese bread on the floor in front of me and then staring back at me．A passenger probably dropped it by mistake and got off at a previous stop．but the gentleman might not think so．Next stop，St．Patrick Station-my stop was quickly coming up．I had few minutes to either take the cheese bread，which nobody else was claiming，or left it there．
In those few minutes I felt my pride getting in the way．"What would others on the subway think of me if I took the cheese bread？Would they think that l was poor and hungry？Would they think that l was stealing？''The ignorant thing to do was say"yes"to any of those self-imposed questions．Actually，they were just my own thoughts．Though I would leave the subway，walk a block to my office，get settled at my desk，and sit comfortably in my office for the whole day，I couldn't get rid of the enormous sense of guilt and regret．
My thoughts once pushed me towards pride，but finally I had to admit I was wrong．This missing cheese bread could be a gift for a homeless person who suffered from cold and hunger．So why not overcome a little bit of my pride and pass along so much kindness？
Just as the doors opened at my stop，I grabbed the cheese bread and left the subway．It felt awesome，but I didn't care if people were looking at me of what they were thinking．Instead of going directly to my office as usual．I walked a few more blocks up to Queen's park，where I often saw a homeless man sitting outside．I always wanted to give him something，but only today I walked toward him，who wrapped himself in a sleeping bag．I was full of satisfaction，and so did the homeless man．I thought．

56．The gentleman kept staring at the author becauseD．
A．he wanted to talk to the author    B．the author appeared too nervous
C．the author was going to get off    D．he might think the author dropped the bread
57．The underlined word"self-imposed"in paragraph 2probably means"B"．
A．easily obtained      B．deliberately created
C．strongly supported   D．completely unaccepted
58．Why did the author grab the cheese bread when he got off？C
A．He noticed that no one was looking at him．
B．He didn't want to see the cheese bread to go to waste．
C．He valued kindness more than his own pride．
D．He remembered a homeless man at that very moment．
10．Our bodies are wonderfully skillful at keeping balance．When the temperature jumps，we sweat to cool down．When our blood pressure falls，our hearts can do something．As it turns out，though，our natural state is always changing．Researchers are finding that everything from blood pressure to brain function changes regularly with the cycles of sun，moon and seasons．And their insights （洞察力） are getting new ways for keeping away such common killers as heart disease and cancer．Only one doctor in 20 has a good knowledge of the scientific use of time in medicine．But according to a new American Medical Association，three out of four are eager to change that．"The field is exploding，"says Michael Smolensky．"Doctors used to look at us like，What spaceship did you get off？Now they're thirsty to know more．"
       In medical school，most doctors learn that people with chronic  conditions should take their medicine regularly．"It's a terrible way to treat disease，"says Dr Richard Martin．For example，asthmatics （气喘患者） are most likely to suffer during the night．Yet most patients try to keep a constant level of medicine in their blood day and night，whether by breathing in on an inhaler （吸入器） four times a day or taking a pill each morning and evening．In recent studies，researchers have found that a large mid afternoon dose of a bronchodilator （支气管扩张剂） can be as safe as several small doses，and better for preventing nighttime attacks．
       If the night belongs to asthma，the dawn belongs to high blood pressure and heart disease．Heart attacks are twice as common at 9 a．m．as at 11 p．m．Part of the reason is that our blood pressure falls at night，then rises as we start to work for the day．"Doctors know that，"says Dr．Henry Black of Chicago's Medical Center，"but until now，we haven't been able to do anything about it．"Most blood-pressure drugs provide 18 to 20 hours of relief （减缓）．But because they're taken in the morning，they're least effective when most needed．"You take your pill at 7 and it's working by 9，"says Dr．William White of the University of Connecticut Health Center"But by that time you've gone through the worst four hours of the day with no protection．"Bedtime medicine would prevent high blood pressure，but it would also push blood pressure to dangerously low levels during the night．
45．Researchers are finding thatC．
A．heart disease and cancer are the most common killers of human beings
B．only blood pressure and brain function are decided by cycles of sun，moon and seasons
C．the functions of human bodies have much to do with nature
D．any change in human bodies goes with changes in the surroundings
46．According to the author，it is best for asthmatics to take their medicineD．
A．at certain time      
B．each morning and evening
C．when the disease occurs
D．at midafternoon
47．Which of the following statements is NOT true？B
A．Doctors know more about illnesses than before．
B．Doctors in the U．S．used to be thirsty to know more about the new medical field．
C．The researchers'insights are providing new methods to prevent common killers．
D．The correct use of time in medicine attracts more attention in medical circle in the U．S．A．
48．The suggested title for this passage might beC．
A．Medicine Is Everything                           
B．Treatment Is Everything
C．Timing Is Everything                               
D．Prevention Is Everything．
