题目内容
3.Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida,a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole that was behind his house.In a hurry to dive into the cool water,he ran out of the back door,leaving behind shoes,socks,and shirt as he went.He flew into the water,not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake,an alligator (美洲鳄鱼) was swimming toward the shore.His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer together.In utter fear,she ran toward the water,yelling to her son as loudly as she could. (62)C It was too late.
Just as he reached her,the alligator reached him.From the dock,the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs. (63)DThe alligator was much stronger than the mother,but the mother was much too passionate to let go.A farmer happened to drive by,heard her screams,raced from his truck,took aim,and shot the alligator.
Remarkably,after weeks and weeks in the hospital,the little boy survived. (64)E And,on his arms were deep scratches where his mother's fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.
The newspaper reporter,who interviewed the boy after the trauma(痛苦的经历),asked the boy if he would show him his scars.The boy lifted his pant legs.And,then,with obvious pride,he said to the reporter,"But look at my arms.I have great scars on my arms,too.I have them because my Mom wouldn't let go."
We have scars,too.Not from an alligator,but the scars of a painful past. (65)AWe foolishly get into dangerous situations,not knowing what lies ahead.The swimming hole of life is filled with danger and we forget that the enemy is waiting to attack.That is when the tug-of-war begins.If you have the scars of love on your arms,be very,very grateful.And never judge another person's scars,because you don't know how they were made.
A.Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret.
B.You are a child of God.He wants to protect you,and provides for you in every way.
C.Hearing her voice,the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother.
D.That began an incredible tug-of-war (拔河赛) between the two.
E.His legs were extremely scarred by the violent attack of the animal.
分析 文章讲述了一个惊险的故事,一位母亲为了挽救孩子做出了常人无法做出的事情,与鳄鱼比力气.
解答 62-65 CDEA
62.C 考查上下文理解判断能力.根据前文In utter fear,she ran toward the water,yelling to her son as loudly as she could可知,妈妈尽力向他大声叫喊,下文应是:可知听见妈妈的叫声,他赶快回头游向妈妈.故选C.
63.D 考查上下文理解判断能力.根据前文From the dock,the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs可知,妈妈抓住他的手臂,鳄鱼抓住他的腿,他们之间展开了拔河赛.故选D.
64.E 考查上下文理解判断能力.根据下文And,on his arms were deep scratches where his mother's fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved可知,妈妈在他的手上留下了伤疤,前文应是腿上的伤疤.故选E.
65.A 考查上下文理解判断能力.根据前文We have scars,too.Not from an alligator,but the scars of a painful past可知,我们也有伤疤,不是鳄鱼留下的,而痛苦的过去伤疤,下文应继续谈论伤疤.故选A.

But those who are suffering from anxiety and depression caused by stress at work,relationships or financial problems tend to become computer addicts.Some people become addicted mainly because they feel bored with everything and feel like there is nothing else to do.
If one feels an intense desire to go online,play a computer game,or socialize as soon as he wakes up and before he goes to bed,he may have become an addict.Other symptoms include using the computer as the only source of entertainment,lying to his family and friends about the activities that he performs while on the computer.Some addicts possess anxious feelings when wanting to use the computer or knowing that time on the computer is limited.Others may lose track of time while on the computer and spend more time on it than intended.The computer can also be used as a form of escapism from reality.
Excessive computer use may result in the lack of face-to-face social interaction and an increasing amount of time and money on hardware,software and computer-related activities.Computer addiction makes one neglect his work,school,or family obligations.He often fails at repeated efforts to control computer use.So it's time to seek help for the sake of health.
Counseling (心理辅导) or therapy can focus on treating underlying mental health conditions that caused the addiction such as anxiety,depression,social trauma or other conditions.Many different options for group or community support are available to assist those addicts.Just getting out and interacting with others can be very rewarding to the computer addict.Another method is to focus on new interests.For instance,a computer user might take part in a new gym membership,spend time at the movies with friends or go out for a walk.If a computer user does feel that he must go onto the computer,consider talking himself out of the computer use unless it is absolutely necessary.If he does go on the computer,he must make a plan for what he will do when on the computer,how long it will take and what time you will be off of the computer.

Everyone loves a good listener.But there are more reasons to develop the skill of listening than to win hearts or popularity contests.
Listening heals hurts and builds bridges.It gives us the ability to understand and empathize,to view the world from our own point.It can bring us wisdom over and above mere intelligence.But most importantly,it allows us to give the people around us the gifts they crave (渴望) most-a sense of worth.
As it turns out,there's more to good listening than just keeping quiet and allowing someone to speak.Effective listening is actually a combination of two key communication skills:listening and verifying (确认).
Even when we've managed to hear a person's entire message,we often interpret it wrong-according to our own understanding,experience,or prejudice.
As an effective listener,your goal is to hear and absorb what another has to say…in exactly the way they mean it to be understood.Only then can you respond properly.
This is much easier read than done,so here are a few helpful tips:
1.Give the speaker your full attention.
Stop talking and remove all distractions.Turn off the TV,your phone,or computer.Watch your body language.The way you look at the speaker,or the way you stand or sit,makes a huge difference.The right listening body language communicates that we are listening openly and attentively,and puts the other person at ease.
2.Be patient.
Not everyone is a gifted speaker.Some people take longer to find the right word to make a point.Others are too worried to get their message across properly.If necessary,ask the speaker to explain further.It will help him/her speak more exactly and it will help you hear and understand better.
3.Keep your emotions in check.
If what someone is saying creates an emotional response in you,make an extra effort to listen carefully.When we're angry,frightened or upset,we often miss key parts of what is being said.
4.Hold your fire.
Don't jump to conclusions immediately.A good listener doesn't react until comprehension is complete.If you respond in a way that makes the other person defensive,even if you"win"the argument,you may lose something far more valuable.
5.Even if you think you understand,verify.
Never assume you got the message right.Pause,think about what was said,and then ask"Is this what you meant?"or"Am I understanding this right?"
6.Empathize
Take a moment to stand in the other person's shoes,to look at the situation from his/her point of view…especially when you're being told something personal or painful,or something you strongly disagree with.The more shoes you are able to successfully stand in within your life time,the less puzzled you'll find your life and relationships to be.
(66)Effects/Advantages/Benefits of good listening | (67)Healing hurts. Building (68)bridges. Allowing us to (69)understand and empathize,and viewing the world in an all-round way. Bringing us wisdom over and above mere intelligence. (70)Making the people around us feel worthy. |
Components of effective listening | ●Good listening consists of two key communication skills:(71)listening and verifying. |
(72)Ways/Tips to be a good listener | Listening to the speaker openly and (73)attentively. Trying to be a (74)patientlistener. Avoiding being affected by your emotions. Waiting before you take actions. Verifying. (75)Empathizing. |
For a long time scientists believed that the human brain was (23)D developed by age 5and we were stuck with our gray cells for the rest of our lives.But our brain is a/an (24)D organ.
Research finds that the brain can change(25)C and even create new connections all through our lives as we learn new skills!(26)B,connections and areas of the brain that are less used (27)C.The strength of the connections in the brain increases with the amount of practice.
Every time you play a musical instrument,as your fingers glide over the instrument,your brain establishes important electrical (28)A.As you try to figure out the right notes,you are exercising parts of the brain which are (29)B for language learning.When you(30)A your music,you are working yet other (31)A of the brain that help prevent memory loss.
The (32)B activities required for learning and playing music help to build connections in the brain between otherwise (33)D parts.
Why is this important?(34)D taking a new,unfamiliar route to school.It will take a few attempts (35)B you figure out the best shortcut to your destination.The brain works in the same way.Creating new connections can help us (36)C our brain to focus on (37)C ways of learning and storing information that is important for us.
So the next time your mother (38)C you to practice your music,you are not doing her a (39)A---you are (40)D strengthening and re-writing your brain for the future!
