16.Life is difficult.
    It is great truth because once we truly understand and accept it,then life is no longer difficult.
 Most do not fully see this truth.Instead,they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy.It seems to them that difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or upon their familie s,their class,or even their nation.
 What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one.Problems,depending on their nature,cause us sadness,loneliness or regret or anger and fear.These are uncomfortable feelings,often as painful as any kind of physical pain.And since life causes an endless series of problems,life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.
Yet,it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning.Problems are the serious tests that tell us success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit,we encourage the human ability to solve problems,just as in school we set problems for our children to solve.It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn.As Benjamin Franklin said,"Those things that hurt instruct."It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.

A.everybody has problems

7.Do you like listening to English songs to learn the language?Some students don't believe doing so can help them learn English.I have to say they think wrongly.Listening to English songs can help you learn the language better.You may ask how.Just read on.
Lyrics are not easily forgotten.You listen to them over and over again throughout your life.Once you learn them,they are going to stay with you,and you are going to review them repeatedly because you enjoy them.If you learn just one song per week for a year,those are 52songs full of new vocabulary and phrases that you will never forget.
Songs give you perfect pronunciation models.As you learn to sing them,you are practicing your pronunciation,you are imitating native speakers,and you are learning how to speak better.The rhythm naturally leads to better pronunciation,better intonation(声调),and more fluency.
When you start paying attention to the lyrics,your listening skills naturally improve.Once you learn a few songs,you'll start gathering a lot of songs and vocabulary.A larger vocabulary usually means better listening comprehension.Just the fact that you start caring about the lyrics will activate your listening skills and listening to music in English will become an enjoyable learning exercise.
Another huge   merit  is that you get to practice your grammar.Some of the most intelligent grammar questions my students bring to me come from songs.You can probably even map the entire language into pop songs and greatly improve your grammar by learning the lyrics to your favorite songs.
Now we can conclude that listening to English songs can really help you learn the language well.So listen to more English songs in your free time.You can put the lyrics on your ipod or iphone and read them as you listen.Believe me,and you'll benefit a lot.

32.Paragraph 2 mainly shows that by listening to English songs,you canB.
A.improve your memory
B.have a larger vocabulary

35.Which of the following best describes the relation among the paragraphs?C
11.Lost in the Post    How would you feel if the letter you penned carefully and posted to your favorite star ended up in the recycling bin?That's where unopened fan mail sent to singer Taylor Swift was found in Nashville.(36)GSwift's management said it was an accident,but dealing with piles of letters is a burden for most public figures.According to th e BBC reporter Jon Kelly,at the height of his fame,Johnny Depp was said to receive up to 10,000 letters a week.(37)CThe dawn of the digital age in which public figures with a Twitter account can be messaged directly has made the process easier.The White House says it deals with 20,000 messages addressed to President Barack Obama each day.
Some celebrities don't want letters.In 2008,Beatles drummer Ringo Starr said that he would throw them out because he was too busy.(38)ARobert Pattinson,star of the Twilight films,claims that he reads tonnes and tonnes of letters from fans,which takes up almost all his free time.
Many artists,however,outsource(外包) the task of opening,reading and replying.Sylvia"Spanky"Taylor,58,has run a service in California that does just that since 1987.(39)FMost letters are simply declarations of affection and admiration,she says.A few ask for money.A small number contain threats which require her to contact the celebrity's security team and law enforcement.
The biggest problem for Taylor is working out how to deal with the correspondence(通信).Presents such as soft toys are sent to local hospitals,and most of the letters just get shredded and recycled.
(40)DFor some,this is enough,according to Lynn Zubernis,an expert at West Chester University.She says that the relationship between fan and celebrity may exist only in the mind of the former but it comes from a deeply-rooted human need for community.

A.Others do attempt to get through it themselves.
B.In fact,there is no alternative to deal with the problem.
C.How could he have enough time to skim through these letters one by one?
D.Typically,correspondence is acknowledged by a photo with a printed"signature".
E.Accordingly,the correspondence problem has been difficult for the computer to automate.
F.She and her staff deal with up to 20,000 items of mail a month on behalf of 26 celebrities.
G.This incident has caused a wide public concern about how the public figures deal with the   letters or mails from the fans.
