10．Social networking isn't only for the under 40s．More than 25 percent of Americans 50 years and older stay connected using sites such as Facebook，MySpace and Twitter，according to new research．
"The latest data tells us that more and more social networking is becoming a part of everyday life for Americans 50 plus，"said Kevin Donnellan，the chief communications officer at AARP，which released the report．
Nearly a quarter of older Americans are on Facebook and 73 percent said they use it to stay in touch with relatives，but not just their children and grandchildren．"They are using the Internet to keep up with the world and the people who are important to them，"said Jean Koppen，the author of the report．She added that older adults are also on Facebook to stay connected，not only with their family，but with their friends and those in the same age group．Almost 50 percent of older adults were introduced to the social networking sites by a family member，mainly a child or grandchil d．"Just under one-fifth of adults aged 50 and older say they do not use the Internet，"according to the report．
The findings are based on a telephone survey of 1，863 adults．In addition to keeping up on Facebook and Twitter older adults are aware of the latest technology．Eighty-three percent had heard about the Apple iPad and 11 percent intended to buy one．
Despite the popularity of the Internet among the over 50s，they still mostly go to print newspapers and magazines for news．Only one percent said they followed blogs．

7．Ways to Improve Your Luck
Some people have all the luck!Or does it just seem that way？Why did your co-worker get that big promotion while you were overlooked？Why do some of us seem to experience these lucky things more than others and how can you improve your luck？（16）D
What You Tell Yourself Matters!
Do you know that people who are lucky tell themselves they're lucky？Has your own self-talk been filled with less-than-lucky talk？Do you say things like："I'm just not a lucky person．"or"Good things never happen to me？"（17）C They say things like---"This setback is only temporary．I know things will turn around．"or"Things have a way of working out for me．"
Expect and Acknowledge Your Good Luck．
（18）G Research suggests keeping a"good luck journal"helps people become even luckier．Did someone bring you coffee at work today？Did you find a random quarter on the street？Did your husband or wife do something nice for you today？Did your child get a good grade at school？Write them down!（19）A Begin to notice all the good that comes to you．
Do Something New and Different．
Make contact with people．Take risks．People who try new things are much more open to luck and good fortune than those who don't．This doesn't mean you have to quit your job or take up skydiving!It could be as simple as starting a conversation with a stranger，taking a class in an unfamiliar subject，learning some words and phrases in a foreign language，or trying a new ethnic restaurant．（20）F And this greater openness can help promote chance opportunities in their lives．

A．All of these things count．
B．You will never forget your lucky friends．
C．Lucky people generally expect good fortune．
D．Here are ideas that researchers tell us about luck．
E．A lucky person generally receive good fortune in the future．
F．Lucky people score much higher on openness than unlucky people．
G．You probably have many more lucky things happening in your life than you think．

11．Winter care for rosesDo roses need extra care for winter？Like so many other things in the garden，the answer is debatable．（36）G
Roses are grouped and referred to by type．Shrub roses are the hardiest and need little extra care．Hybrid tea roses and other roses are more likely to need winterization to survive or remain healthy．
（37）A And even shrub roses exposed to severe winter conditions can suffer．If roses are growing in a location that is subject to heavy winter winds，even the hardiest varieties may benefit from winterization．
Some gardeners live by the theory that if a plant can't grow well，the best bet is to replace it．（38）DIf you wish to do nothing with your roses，you also have chances of having plants around in the spring．If you like to baby plants along，winterization is for you．
Winterize roses after a hard freeze and cold weather．The first step is to add soil or other plant material over the crown（花冠）of the rose bush．The material should be about 12inches deep over the crown．The second step to winterizing roses is to tie up the plants．（39）F If the plants are tall，use ropes to provide support to them．
When spring comes，remove the added soil from the base of the plant．（40）B  This is the time to clean up cuts and reduce plant size if desired．

A．Location also plays a role，though．
B． Remove strings if plants have been tied up．
C．So they often change the plants they grow．
D．Other gardeners have plants that are almost like children．
E．You should consider sunshine and water when answering this question．
F．The main purpose is to prevent them from breaking off in the face of strong winds．
G．It depends on the plant variety，growing location and a gardener's personal preference．
12．Take a look at the following list of numbers：4，8，5，3，7，9，6．Read them loud．Now look away and spend 20seconds memorizing them in order before saying them out loud again．If you speak English，you have about a 50% chance of remembering those perfectly．If you are Chinese，though，you're almost certain to get it right every time．Why is that？Because we most easily memorize whatever we can say or read within a two-second period．And unlike English，the Chinese language allows them to fit all those seven numbers into two seconds．
That example comes from Stanislas Dahaene's book The Number Sense．As Dahaene explains：Chinese number words are remarkably brief．Most of them can be spoken out in less than one-quarter of a second （for instance，4is"si"and 7"qi"）．Their English pronunciations are longer．The memory gap between English and Chinese apparently is entirely due to this difference in length．
It turns out that there is also a big difference in how number-naming systems in Western and Asian languages are constructed．In English，we say fourteen，sixteen，seventeen，eighteen and nineteen，so one might expect that we would also say oneteen，twoteen，threeteen，and fiveteen．But we don't．We use a different form：eleven，twelve，thirteen and fifteen．For numbers above 20，we put the"decade"first and the unit number second （twenty-one，twenty-two），while for the teens，we do it the other way around （fourteen，seventeen，eighteen）．The number system in English is highly irregular．Not so in China，Japan，and Korea．They have a logical counting system．Eleven is ten-one．Twelve is ten-two．Twenty-four is two-tens-four and so on．
That difference means that Asian children learn to count much faster than American children．Four-year-old Chinese children can count，on average，to 40．American children at that age can count only to 15．By the age of five，in other words，American children are already a year behind their Asian friends in the most fundamental of math skills．
The regularity of their number system also means that Asian children can perform basic functions，such as addition，far more easily．Ask an English-speaking seven-year-old to add thirty-seven plus twenty-two in her head，and she has to change the words to numbers （37+22）．Only then can she do the math：2plus 7is 9and 30and 20is 50，which makes 59．Ask an Asian child to add three-tens-seven and two-tens-two，and then the necessary equation（等式） is right there，in the sentence．No number translation is necessary：it's five-tens-nine．
When it comes to math，in other words，Asians have a built-in advantage．For years，students from China，South Korea，and Japan---outperformed their Western classmates at mathematics，and the typical assumption is that it has something to do with a kind of Asian talent for math．The differences between the number systems in the East and the West suggest something very different---that being good at math may also be rooted in a group's culture．

33．What does the passage mainly talk about？D
A．The Asian number-naming system helps grasp advanced math skills better．
B．Western culture fail to provide their children with adequate number knowledge．
C．Children in Western countries have to learn by heart the learning things．
D．Asian children's advantage in math may be sourced from their culture．
34．What makes a Chinese easier to remember a list of numbers than an American？B
A．Their understanding of numbers．
B．Their mother tongue．
C．Their math education．
D．Their different IQ．
35．Asian children can reach answers in basic math functions more quickly becauseC．
A．they pronounce the numbers in a shorter period
B．they practice math from an early age
C．they don't have to translate language into numbers first
D．American children can only count to 15at the age of four．
