   When I went away to college,I chose to go to a large school in another state in an attempt to never again see those popular girls,the ones who drove quiet girls like me headlong into the arms of dusty books.

   Since I didn't know a soul at this university,I volunteered for a dub to make friends. That's how I ended up one winter evening standing outside the student union,waiting for the night's famous speaker to drive up. My assignment was to escort (护送）her to the auditorium where her fans eagerly waited to hear Maya Angelou,author of I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.

   As showtime neared,Angelou's car pulled up. When its door opened,Angelou and a female friend exited,each wearing head-to-toe fur coats. I nervously guided the pair inside. Angelou was ready to sweep onstage,but first,there was her fur coat. I offered to babysit it backstage to make sure it was safe.

   “No,” she said. She looked out at the audience. “You need to get out there and live."

   So I found a front-row seat and heard,for the first time,a book come alive in an author's own voice. The audience clapped and cheered as they went along on the ride of this performance.

   I wish I could say that my life changed then. But out of college,I went deeper into my interior self,taking a job that required little human contact. A few years later,I became a newspaper editor,which required talking to "many people. For those times,I depended on index(索引) cards. But I reminded myself that Angelou hadn't used notes.

   Today,I'm in my 50s. I am speaking comfortably about what I really know to be true. I get out there now and live.

24. What kind of person did the author use to be?

   A. Brave. B. Kind.

   C. Careless. D. Shy.

25. Why did Angelou decline the author's offer to take care of her fur coat?

   A. She wouldn’t trust a stranger with it.

   B. She thought it was the duty of her assistant.

   C. She wanted the author to enjoy the performance.

   D. She thought it was safe enough to put it backstage.

26. Soon after graduating from college,the author.

   A. found a job as a newspaper editor

   B. kept shutting herself in her own world

   C. changed a lot under Angelou's influence

   D. felt more confident when speaking in public

27. What would be the best title for the text?

   A. Get out there and live

   B. The night I met Angelou

   C. Speak from your inner self

   D. My friendship with Angelou

Sally: Rebecca,is humour an important thing for you? 61. your best relationships with people who share your sense of humour?

Rebecca: Yes. I think it's also very important to not only laugh at jokes and things in the world but also to laugh at 62.(you) .

Sally: Have you ever made friends with someone 63. didn't laugh at any of your jokes?

Rebecca: I don't think I could be friends with someone 64. that because a sense of humour and 65.(personal) are very important to me. It's also very important to me 66.my new friend gets along with my old friends. 

Sally: And do you think there's a big difference between American humour 67.British humour?

Rebecca: I don't know if there's a big difference,but there's 68. (certain) a difference. I think British humour is a lot more dry and irdnic (讽刺的) than American humour which tends 69. (be) “laugh out loud” kind of humour.

Sally: What kind of American things make you laugh?

Rebecca: I would say more slapstick(打闹剧似的胡闹) and maybe not 70. (intelligence) humour.

                                     Fitting in fitness 

   Do you find excuses not to exercise? . 36 Here are a few ways to get you going.

   Do what you love.

   The easiest way to fall into the habit of doing exercise is to choose an activity you enjoy — one that doesn't feel like exercise,even though it is. 37 If you play to your strengths,you’ 11 find fitness activities you can enjoy for years.

   Choose your hour.

   Studies have shown that people who work out in the morning are most likely to stick with a routine. By doing exercise before the day starts,they can avoid the last-minute scheduling conflicts. But if you* re not a morning person,choose whatever time works best for you. 38 

   Call it by another name.

   39 If it's something you have to do anyway 一 like washing the car or planting some bushes in the yard 一 you’ 11 achieve two goals at once.

   Partner up.

   Exercise is more flin when you do it with others. 40 On days when your motivation is low,you’ re more likely to stick with the programme to avoid disappointing your exercise partners. You can also train with an expert. A personal trainer will help you set goals,design a personalized fitness programme,and vary your routine to keep it challenging.

   A. Ask yourself: what am I good at?

   B. Make fitness part of your social routine.

   C. If you* re in top form from noon to 1 pm,aim for a lunchtime workout.

   D. For example,you can join a running,walking,hiking,biking or tennis club.

   E. If a damp T-shirt is not your idea of a good time,try gentler forms of exercise.

   F. Would you rather do anything else — even sort your socks or clean the fridge?

   G. Substitute some challenging household activity for the standard exercise routine.

   On August 17,2013,a hunter made a campfire. He just wanted to 41 some soup. But he 42 started the third-largest wildfire in California's history.

   The 43 carried sparks(火花） from the hunter's campfire into the woods. Soon,a wildfire was burning 44 . It spread with 45 speed. For a while,it doubled in size every day.

   The blaze(烈火) became known as the Rim Fire. It lasted for two months. Thousands of 46 worked to stop it. When they finally did,400 square miles of forest had 47 . That's an area larger than Dallas,Texas.

   Wildfires have always been 48 in the western U.S. In recent years,they have been getting bigger and harder to control. That's partly because the weather has been 49 and drier than in the past. Forest plants have dried out. That makes the plants bum very 50 . The average fire is three times larger than it was in the 1980s.

   The Rim Fire started in a remote area. Fighting such a fire can be a big 51 . Firefighters often use planes to 52 the fire. Then they dwmp (倾倒) huge loads of water from these planes. Sometimes that is not 53 to stop a wildfire,so firefighters jump down.

   After they jump onto the 54 ,these firefighters use axes to 55 plants. They create a line of bare soil near the edge of the fire. When the fire reaches this line,there is 56 to bum. The fire stops spreading.

   In the past,people often 57 in wildfires. Today,wildfires are 58 deadly. Early warnings usually help people get to safety before it's too 59 . Even though the Rim Fire 60 11 homes and caused millions of dollars in damage,no one was killed.

  In my early 30s,I used an expired(过期的) student ID to buy discounted movie tickets. I'd tell myself,I'm buying a ticket I wouldn’ t have otherwise bought. I think many people have done similar things; however,we still think of ourselves as honest citizens. Researchers who study these behaviours believe that character isn 51the real reason. We might break the rules under some conditions and in some mind-sets,but not in others.

   Years ago,Francesca Gino,a professor at Harvard,and Dan Ariely,a behavioural economist at Duke,wondered if people with higher IQs were more likely to cheat. They found that cleverness wasn't closely connected to dishonesty,but creativity was. The more creative you are,the easier it is to retell the story of what happened when you behaved dishonestly.

   Harvard University psychologist Joshua Greene argues in his book Moral Tribes that we may be bom without having a clear sense of right and wrong,but our culture sharpens it. If your tribe downloads pirated(盗版的) music,you’ re likely to go with the flow.

   Harvard researcher Leslie John,along with two colleagues conducted an experiment. They told volunteers that others in the room were making more money than they were for getting questions right on a test. Guess what happened? That group,which considered itself disadvantaged,cheated more than those who believed that everyone received an equal payment.

   The real threat is that rule breaking worsens over time. Behavioural psychology offers a few antidotes. Keep yourself fed and well-rested — we’ re likelier to behave badly when hungry or tired. Reflect on how your actions look through others’ eyes and see yourselves in a positive light. In a Stanford study,when researchers used the verb cheat — please don't cheat — participants still cheated freely because they felt distanced from the act. When the noun was used — don't be a cheater — hardly anyone did.

32. According to Francesca Gino,who are likeliest to break the rules in a company?

   A. Accountants. B. Designers.

   C. Cleaners. D. Typists.

33. Why did volunteers in Leslie John's experiment cheat more than others?

   A. Because they were not as smart as others.

   B. Because they thought others cheated too.

   C. Because they felt a sense of unfairness.

   D. Because they were tired and hungry.

34. The underlined word “antidotes” in the last paragraph can be replaced by.

   A. explanations   B. solutions

   C. studies   D. novels

35. What's the best title for the text?

   A. Why people break the rules

   B. How people break the rules

   C. The influence of breaking the rules

   D. Different ways of breaking the rules

3. The workers were the truck with fresh vegetables.

   A. covering   B. loading

   C. replacing   D. fighting

   Last summer I did some fruit-picking. It is pretty hard work,though. I had to start in 7 am and picked for a good eight hours. But it was such cheerful and full of fun. Some of we had guitars,so in the evenings [ ! we had barbecues and played a bit music together. I only got about $80 a week,but at the least they gave me all my meals,and the food was not that awfully. Basic accommodation was also supplying. Still,I’m afraid I won’t be going fruit-picking this summer,because V ve got a temporary job in town what pays better.
