15.(36)FHalf a minute?A few seconds?
Google engineers have discovered that even 400milliseconds-as short as the blink of an eye-is too long for most Internet users.
A millisecond is one thousandth of a second.People hardly notice such a small time difference,but it does cause them to stop searching,reported The New York Times.
Nowadays,millions of smart-phones and computers are constantly gathering and sending out information.(37)B you can get digital"traffic jams".Meanwhile,users are expecting faster and faster service.
Google found that if one website is 250milliseconds slower than another website,then people will visit it  less often.(38)E Google said people do expect different things from different websites because they realize not all loading times are the same.For example,a person will be more patient waiting for a video clip to load than for a search result.
Even so,four out of five online users will click away if a video takes too long to load.This makes"difficult for video websites to choose between the quality of pictures and fast loading times.
Pursuing a higher speed has always been part of the history of the Internet.
In the 1990s,when the World Wide Web first started to become popular,(39)G people  called it the"World Wide Wait".But engineers managed to fight the problem with new inventions.They laid a lot of fiber optic cables for high-speed transmissions,they improved software so it would work more smoothly; they placed computer servers all around the world to be nearer to users; all this increased speed.
Nowadays we can enjoy much faster Internet.(40)C But they will need to keep fighting to keep up with the developing demands of internet users.

A.internet is becoming faster and faster.
B.With so many people downloading maps,sports videos,news and restaurant recommendations,
C.Major search engines such as Google and Microsoft's Bing usually find search results
in less than a second.
D.We can not expect a faster speed about the internet.
E.This is why technology companies are now competing to be the fastest.
F.How long are you willing to wait for a webpage to open before you start to lose your
patience?
G.it was very crowded and slow.
16.Is it time to leave your job?

You have been in your position for a while,and your skills have improved.Now the work you are doing no longer seems interesting.Maybe you can get more changes at a different job.
The company is going down fast.The slow business has hurt a lot of business.Budget cuts and firing workers occur all too often though businesses try to maintain.(5)E 
You have a bad relationship with your boss or co-workers.People at work don't respect or value you.Your boss takes advantage of you.Your relationships have gotten so bad that they are affecting the quality of your work.Maybe the only solution is to find new people to work with.Remember:the exit door can sometimes open up a world of new opportunities.

13.There is an English saying,"(71)F"Until recently,few people took the saying seriously.Now however,doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body.(72)G Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body.People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart,blood pressure,breathing and muscles.It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise.(73)D If laughter exercises the body,it must be beneficial.
Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body.In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs.The group that tolerated the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program.(74)C
(75)BThey have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing,making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.

A.Laughter can surely last one's life.
B.As a result of these discoveries,some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics,in which they help to improve their patients'condition by encouraging them to laugh.
C.The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain.
D.It increases blood pressure,makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works several groups of muscles in the face,the stomach,and even the feet.
E.They have proved that laughter can really cure any disease if people keep a good state of mind.
F.Laughter is the best medicine.
G.They have found that laughter really can improve people's health.
20.In our daily life,we have developed a lot of habits,such as,eating habit,study habit,reading habit,etc.However,taking the time to develop a sleep habit is probably the last thing on your mind and some sleep advice simply can't be forgotten.(36)B.
Watching TV until you fall asleep
It has nothing to do with what you watch-TV news isn't a better pre-sleep choice than TV series.(37)C.The bright light keeps you awake all the night.So even if you nod off (in front of the TV,for example),you probably won't stay asleep for long.
Sleeping with pets
(38)F.They get comfortable,and then they move.This goes on all night,and whether you admit it or not,it interrupts your ability to get the level of sleep needed to feel rested.
(39)A
Remember how poorly you sleep when you have a fever-turning over and over again,never really feeling rested?Well,heavy exercise too close to bedtime has the same effect-it raises your body temperature so that your sleep is disturbed until your body temperature drops to normal,which may take several hours.
Accepting snoring (打呼噜) as normal sleep behavior
Snoring may seem as common as breathing,but it's considered the biggest sleep killer,and it's linked to several causes:sleeping on your back,being overweight,having a cold,drinking,or taking drugs.(40)E.For the snorer,it disturbs sleep by awakening him/her every so often in order to breathe normally.For the partner,the noise can be unbearable.

A.Exercising heavily too close to bedtime
B.Here are some bad habits you need to get rid of
C.Rather it's the TV's bright light that is the criminal
D.Here are some suggestions you'll need to follow.
E.Most seriously,it's caused by a dangerous illness
F.Pets sleep most of the day,and they move a lot when sleeping
G.Reducing your body temperature before bedtime.
10.A student's life is never easy.(36)G A lot of preparations are needed so you can be sure to go back home with a diploma and a bright future waiting for you.The following are some basic things you need to do before even seizing that passport and boarding on the plane.
●Knowing the country.
You shouldn't bother researching the country's hottest tourist spots or historical places.You won't go there as a tourist,but as a student.It'll be helpful to read the most important points in their history and to read up on their culture.(37)C You surely don't want to face legal problems,especially if you're away from home.
●Studying their language.
Don't expect that you can graduate abroad without knowing even the basics of the language.Before leaving your home country,take online lessons to at least master some of their words and sentences.(38)D  Doing this will also prepare you in communicating with those who can't speak English.
●(39)B
Check the conversion(兑换)of your money to their local currency,set up your bank account so you can use it there,get an insurance,and find an apartment.The Internet or your intended school will be very helpful in finding an apartment and helping you understand local currency.
Remember,you're not only carrying your own reputation but your country's reputation as well.If you act foolishly,people there might think that all of your country men are foolish as well.(40)E.

A.Packing your clothes.
B.Preparing for other needs.
C.Most importantly,read about their laws.
D.This will be useful in living and studying there.
E.That would surely be a very bad start for your study abroad program.
F.Going with their trends will keep it from being too obvious that you're a foreigner.
G.And it is even more difficult if you will have to complete your study in a foreign land.
14.Are you addicted to computer games?Do you stay up all night playing them?(26)CBut should we worry about their effects on our health?
    Choices are various when it comes to gaming:1(27)EAnd there are shooting games where you can let out your anger and frustration in violent situations where you kill people with guns.(28)APopular games like Grand Theft Auto have been blamed for everything from falling results at school to provoking(激起) acts of extreme violence.Internet safety advisor,Alan MacKenzie,thinks"many people understandably will just think that a game is just a game and not realising the obvious content that's in there".(29)GThere is evidence that playing video games could actually be good for us.Studies have also shown that the skills used in playing games can cause growth in certain areas of the brain,the ability to think in 3D and even improve our eyesight.
Video gamers are also no longer just creatures playing alone.For some,gaming is having a positive effect on their social lives with games like Halo often being played in groups.(30)BSo it seems today,gaming,if used in moderation(有节制地),we can all take part.
