1.When people reunite with their loved ones,it's usually all extremely happy moment.But what is their most common response to seeing them again?It may seem strange,but most of the time they break down in tears.
Now a group of psychologists from Yale University say they have found the reason why,and that crying tears of joy may well be the body's way of keeping emotional balance. They seem to take place when people are overtaken by strong positive emotions,and people who do this seem to recover better from those strong emotions,"Oriana Aragon,the lead researcher said.
Aragon and her fellow psychologists looked at hundreds of participants'emotional responses to different things,including happy reunions and cute babies.Many participants said they would react in a negative or aggressive way to the positive things--to cry at happy moments and want to pinch(捏)a cute baby's face or even tell them"I want to eat you up!"But then researchers found that these people were able to calm down from strong emotions more quickly.
There are many other examples of times when people respond to a positive experience with a negative emotional reaction.At an exciting concert,fans scream at their idols(偶像).People who have just had a big lottery win are often in floods of tears."These findings advance our understanding of how people express and control their emotions,which is importantly related to mental and physical health,the quality of relationships with others,and even how well people work together."said Aragon.

32.What have professors from Yale University found in their research?B
A.The reason why people cry with tears.
B.Crying tears of joy helps to balance emotions.
C.Strong negative feelings are useful to people.

D.Times when people reunite with friends.
34.Which of the following agrees with the findings of the research?A
A.Crying at good news.    
B.Crying at a failure.
C.Kissing a cute baby.
D.Laughing at happy reunions.
35.Where does the passage most likely come from?B
A.A science fiction novel.    
B.A psychological science journal.

5.You might learn a great deal in school,but it's uncertain that you'll actually develop as a leader by reading a book or taking a course.The military is right about development based on experience:People grow and become leaders by making a commitment to a cause,and having personal responsibility.
For those of us in civilian life,there are also ways to develop as leaders through experience:through volunteer service.There are various nonprofit missions from which to choose as well as roles and positions in which to get involved.
Nonprofit board service is particularly convincing for business people and professionals seeking to develop as leaders.Business people who bring valuable skills and experience as well as diverse backgrounds and viewpoints are uniquely equipped to help regional,national,and global organizations to achieve success in coping with poverty,education,health care,conservation of natural resources,and other key issues.
Through nonprofit board experience,business people participate with the CEO in foreseeing an organization's greater potential,creating the income model,and achieving success.
Here's the secret to making the most of a service experience:
1.Choose a cause that's meaningful to you,and where you like the people.Determine how you can be useful-whether helping with strategic planning,inviting friends to a fund-raising event or serving on the board.If you'll be serving on the board,be clear about what will be expected of you so that you can fully devote yourself to it.
2.Be open to opportunities to raise your hand and say,"I'll help."When you know it,you could be in charge of a committee,and eventually perhaps serving as a board officer.
3.Do pay attention to potential tutors on the board where you serve and among your friends and colleagues.Talk with other people who serve on boards to share experiences,lessons,and advice.
4.Always remember the mission.It must be what you are always thinking about most as you take part in discussions and make decisions.
5.Be generous with your time and your contributions.
Once involved,you'll be surprised at how aware you will become of who's a thoughtful leader and who's not.And then your personal experience can ensure that books and various readings on leadership development will become more meaningful.
Through my volunteer service since I was 10,I've seen first-hand the power of service in developing leadership.Most of the hundreds of business people I've trained and placed on boards have moved up to board leadership positions; the key has been that the match was right,and the board candidate was committed and ready to say,"I'll help."
Through service,you have tremendous opportunities to develop as a leader,become a more valuable professional where you work,and make a meaningful contribution in improving your community and the world.

2.Christmas Eve was tomorrow.I hoped one of the packages that held a camera had already been placed under the Christmas tree.It was the only thing I wanted.I had been  dropping hints  to my parents.I love taking photos.My bedroom walls are covered with photos I had taken with my mom's old camera.I'm always trying to capture (捕捉) those perfect moments in which you can hear the laughter or touch the beautiful scene,but my camera has always seemed to fall short.
I knew Mom had put a few presents under the tree this morning,so I went on a hunt in my mom's room.I opened the door and found my Christmas present was lying unwrapped on the floor-a big pink cat.I felt so disappointed.
Mom seemed to notice that,and she tried to cheer me up."Stacy,I got your present today.I am so excited to surprise you!""I can't wait,"I said.
The next day I couldn't wait any longer.I needed to tell her.
"Mom,may I talk to you for a second?"
"Sure,dear.What do you need to talk about?"she asked.
And so it came-how upset I was that I was getting a cat.
"Stacy,that cat is for your sister Julia!"she said with a smile.
"Then what am I getting?"I asked.
She just smiled."You'll have to wait and see."
Next morning,I happily got into the living room and sat next to the tree.I pulled out the box with my name on it and opened the wrapping paper to find…
My camera!"Thank you!"I said to both Dad and Mom.
Dad picked up the camera and took a picture of Julia,Mom and me.It has become one of my favorite pictures.Just on that Christmas morning,I took lots of photos with my camera-my little sister making a face,my parents giving me a soft smile-and all of these photos have come to mean one thing to me:love.

19.Some people will do just about anything to save money.And I am one of them.Take my family's last vacation.It was my six-year-old son's winter break from school,and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip.The flight was overbooked,and Delta,the airline,offered us 400perpersonincreditstogiveupourseatsandleavethenextday.IhadmeetingsinNewYork,soIhadtogetback.Butthatdidn'tmeanmyhusbandandmysoncouldn'tstay.Itookmynine-month-oldandtookoffforhome.Thenextday,myhusbandandsonwereofferedmorecreditstotakeanevenlaterflight.Yes,Iencouraged-okay,ordered-themtowaititoutattheairport,to"earn"moreDeltaDollars.Ourtotaltake:1,600.Not bad,huh?

I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money's worth.I'm  also tightfisted when it comes to shoes,clothes for my children,and expensive restaurants.But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut.It keeps its shape longer,and it's the first thing people notice.And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture.Quality lasts.
