13.An old problem is getting new attention in the United States-bullying.Recent cases included the tragic case of a fifteen-year-old girl whose family moved from Ireland.She hanged herself in Massachusetts in January following months of bullying.Her parents criticized her school for failing to protect her.Officials have brought criminal charges against several teenagers.
Judy Kuczynski is president of an anti-bullying group called Bully Police USA.Her daughter Tina was the victim of severe bullying starting in middle school in the state of Minnesota.Her said,"Our daughter was a very outgoing child.She was a bubbly personality,very involved in all kinds of things,had lots of friends.And over a period of time her grades fell completely.She started having health issues.She couldn't sleep.She wasn't eating.She had terrible stomach pains.She started clenching her jaw and grinding her teeth at night.Didn't want to go to school."
Bullying is defined as negative behavior repeated over time against the same person.It can involve physical violence.Or it can be verbal-for example,insults or threats.Spreading lies about someone or excluding a person from a group is known as social or relational bullying.
And now there is cyber bullying,which uses the Internet,e-mail or text messages.It has easy appeal for the bully because it does not involve face-to-face contact and it can be done at any time.
The first serious research studies into bullying were done in Norway in the late 1970s.The latest government study in the United States was released last year.It found that about one-third of students age twelve to eighteen were bullied at school.
Susan Sweater is a psychologist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and co-director of the Bullying Research Network.She says schools should treat bullying as a mental health problem to get bullies and victims the help they need.She says bullying is connected to depression,anxiety and anti-social behavior,and bullies are often victims themselves.

66.From the case of Tina,we can know thatB.
A.bullying is rare        B.victims suffered a lot
C.schools are to blame    D.personalities are related
67.Which of the following is NOT bullying?D
A.To beat someone repeatedly.
B.To call someone names.
C.To isolate someone from friends.
D.To refuse to help someone in need.
68.Why is cyber bullying appealing to the bully?C
A.Because it can involve more people.
B.Because it can create worse effects.
C.Because it is more convenient.
D.Because it can avoid cheating.
69.According to Susan Sweater,D.
A.bullies are anti-social
B.bullies should give victims help
C.students are not requally treated
D.bullies themselves also need help
70.Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A
A.Bullying-Old Irish Girl Committed Suicide
B.15-Year-Old Irish Girl Committed Suicide
C.Cyberbullying-Taking Off in Schools

4.A newly-published study has shown that loneliness can spread from one person to another,like a disease.Researchers used information from the Framingham Study,which began in 1948.The Framingham Study gathers information about physical and mental health,personal behavior and diet.At first,the study involved about 5,000people in the American state of Massachusetts.Now,more than 12,000individuals are taking part.
Information from the Framingham Study showed earlier that happiness can spread from person to person.So can behaviors like littering and the ability to stop smoking.
University of Chicago psychologist John Cacioppo led the recent study.He and other researchers attempted to show how often people felt lonely.They found that the feeling of loneliness spread through social groups.
Having a social connection with a lonely person increased the chances that another individual would feel lonely.In fact,a friend of a lonely person was 52% more likely to develop feelings of loneliness.A friend of that person was 25% more likely.The researchers say this shows that a person could indirectly be affected by someone's loneliness.
The effect was strongest among friends.Neighbors were the second most affected group.The effect was weaker on husbands and wives,and brothers and sisters.The researchers also found that loneliness spread more easily among women than men.
The New York Times newspaper reports that,on average,people experience feelings of loneliness about 48days a year.It also found that every additional friend can decrease loneliness by about five percent,or two and a half fewer lonely days.
Loneliness has been linked to health problems like depression and sleeping difficulties.The researchers believe that knowing the causes of loneliness could help in reducing it.
The study suggests that people can take steps to stop the spread of loneliness.They can do this by helping individuals they know who may be experiencing loneliness.The result can be helpful to the whole social group.

68.What is TRUE about the Framingham Study?B
A.It was only conducted in 1948.
B.It involves more than 12,000participants.
C.It was led by John Cacioppo.
D.It showed that any behavior could spread.
69.Which statement about the spread of loneliness is true?C
A.The spreading effect was the second strongest among friends.
B.No spreading effect was found on husbands and wives.
C.Women are more likely to be affected than men.
D.Brothers are more easily affected than neighbors.
70.What is the main idea of the passage?D
A.Actions should be taken to help lonely people.
B.People feel lonely for many reasons.
C.Ways to fight against loneliness.
D.Lonely people can affect others.
1.Good health is the most valuable thing a person can have but one cannot take good health for granted.It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy.There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape,eat right food,get enough sleep,and exercise regularly.
Proper nutrition  is  important for good  health.Your body cannot work well unless  it receives the proper kind"fuel".Don't eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat,Eat plenty of foods high in protein,like meat fish eggs and nuts.Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals.However  don't overeat It is not helpful to be overweight
Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important.If you don't get enough sleep,you feel tired and easily get angry.You have no energy.Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result In a change of personality(人的个性).Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each,If you do,your body will feel strong and refreshed,and  your mind will be sharp.
Finally,get plenty of exercise Exercise firms the body,strengthens the muscles,and prevents you from gaining  weight  It also improves your heart and lungs.If you follow a regular exercise program,you will probably increase your life-span(寿命).An kind of exercise is good.Most sports excellent for keeping the body in good shapes:basketball,swimming,bicycling,running and so on.Sports are not only good for your body,but they are enjoyable and interesting,too.
If everybody were to eat the right foods,get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly,the world would be a happier and healthier place.We would all live to be much older and wiser.

3.In her outstanding book,"Choose the Happiness Habit",Pam Golden wrote,"Take the story of two twin brothers for example.One grew up and became 即 alcoholic (酒鬼),while the other became a successful businessman.When asked why he became an alcoholic,the alcoholic replied,"Because my father was a drunk.However,the successful businessman9s answer was also"Because my father was a drunk."when asked why he succeeded.The same background.The same upbringing•However,the results were quite different.Why?The reason is that they had different choices.The brothers chose different thoughts which formed the situations they found themselves in at last,so they had different experiences.
There was a time in my life when I thought difficulty was due to"bad luck",Have you ever heard the saying"When it rains,it pours"?That was my answer when others asked me how
things were going on when I was in trouble.So whal do you think I got?"RAIN".More and more"RAIN".I couldn't understand why bad luck was always with me.
Pam Golden says,"You're either living in the problem or you're living in the solution(解决)."Now,when I'm faced with what I used to think was a negative (消极的)situation,I use a different way to think about it,I force  myself to replace those negative thoughts that make me  lose heart in my mind with positive thoughts which encourage me to fight agunst the difficulty bravely.Sometimes I write down some ideas that may be a solution 9which I combine (结合)with the lessons I have learned from the bad situations and the difficulties that troubled me in the past,and often,I find a solution to the problem soon.It seems lhal I should thank the difficulty I met with.The RAIN that poured in my world has become great experiences that provide me with valuable experience,from which I can benefit.
Now  it doesn't"rain"as much in my life   as is  used  to  In fact,mostdaysarebeautiful,cloudless and sunny!Sometimes I do get a rain,but I thinkit makes mestronger just like the rain  helps plants grow up.

A.making good choices is the most important
B.education decides a person,s future
C.upbringing makes a big difference
D.it is luck that leads to success
32.What does"RAIN"mentiiMragmph  refer to?D
A.What    
B.Good   luck     
C.Success      
D.Difficulty
