14.Born in America,Thomas Edison was a great scientist and inventor.He was once thought to be a boy not(175)worth(值得) educating.In fact,he was a man full of (176)imagination(想象力).I admire him a lot because of his great contribution(177)tothe world.He had more than 1000 (178)iinventions.When he was young,he was always eager to know (179)hhow things worked,which helped him to earn the nickname"the Wizard of Meio Park".He was also so diligent (180)that he worked day and night.And this explained why he had so (181)many inventions.What (182)impresses(留下印象) me most is his famous saying,"Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine (183)percent perspiration".Maybe I can't be an Edison myself,(184)but I can be a hardworking learner.

4.Four Steps to Begin Your Path to Greatness
Feeling stuck is quite common.Many times,we have thoughts and dreams of what we want in life.(36)FOur thinking pattern holds us back from going forward.The good news is,at any moment in time,we have the ability to start taking action toward creating the life we want.Here are four steps to get started:
1.Celebrate Your Success.
Write down all the successes you've already achieved and all the awesomeness that you are today.(37)EAnd once you're in that positive routine with your thoughts,it will lead you to make better choices and take better actions toward your greatness.
2.Create Your True Vision.
Many times we live based on others'expectations or we stay stuck in a particular place because it's our safety zone.Own your path.It can be hard to do,but allow yourself to get out of your head(or stop listening to what others want for you)and focus on your heart and what it's telling you.(38)G
3.(39)BIf you want to start going to the gym,going from 0 days a week to 5 days a week right away is extreme,and setting yourself up by biting more than you can chew typically doesn't result in success,but failure.Instead,start slow and go once or twice a week.After you do that for a while and get into a nice routine,up it to more days.Over time,you will build toward your goal by taking realistic,smaller steps to get there. 
4.Have the Right Support.
(40)AFind the right support to cheer you on in the process.It could be a friend,a family member,or significant other who you trust.Whoever it may be,having someone on your journey will be just what you need to keep you on track and celebrate with you as you work toward the life you dream of.

A.Don't do it alone.
B.Be realistic about your goals.
C.Be kind to yourself and accept the moment.
D.Your failure can lead you to another success.
E.Sadly,they only stay as thoughts and dreams inside of us.
F.This practice will direct your thinking to a positive place.
G.Look within yourself deeply and decide what you want and what's true for you.
5.Inviting More Happiness into Your Life
Happiness is a decision.(36)E Don't make a happy time just a high point of your life--make everyday a high point.And this starts with a decision to do so and rise above chaos and a disappointing environment.Be happy during the ordinary moments,not for the exciting adventures.
★Remove the Negative
Remove things in your life that are negative or no longer bring you joy anymore.(37)C
If you've put off cutting off relationships that are unpleasant,or feel that you're stuck in a routine,start getting rid of negative influences.
★Get Creative
Start a new hobby,or get out more in the world.When we constantly remain in our world or thoughts,we become an auto person.(38)G
★Conquer Fear
(39)F This can defeat fear of heights,crowds and speaking up,so that you will become more confident.There is a ton of material to help you in this area.Also learning to be grateful will get your mind off problems.
★(40)A
Find something you enjoy doing alone.This can be writing,traveling,painting,or serving others.If you don't have anything,start now.
★Forgive
Forgive and love others by nurturing relationships,with time
,and thoughtfulness.Research finds meaningful relationships that make you feel wanted and loved are keys to happiness.Additionally,forgiving yourself is a must if you want to experience a fulfilling life.

A.Find Alone Time
B.Start Something Now
C.Make room for new positive things.
D.Being positive can help remove the negative.
E.So make a decision that you will be happy.
F.Try something you are afraid of and conquer that fear.
G.Look for a new organization or social group to join and expand the horizons.
1.It's natural to greet friends with a smile and a wave.(51)G But what happens if your face and body send mixed messages?Would someone be more likely to believe the look on your face or the way you hold your body?
Scientists have recently tackled these questions.They found that when a person is looking at your face,she might not believe what she sees of your body language matches the feeling that your face shows.
(52)B Previously,they had found that the tone of a person's voice can be more important than the words that are spoken.For example,most people tend not to believe a person who says in a flat voice,"I'm so excited."
When it came to emotions conveyed by facial expressions and body language,most scientists suspected that the face was more important.To test if this was true,psychologists from the Netherlands and Boston showed people a number of pictures of isolated faces and isolated bodies(with faces blurred out) that showed anger or fear.(53)F
An angry face had low eyebrows and tight lips.A scared face had high eyebrow and a slightly open mouth.(54)E A scared body had arms forward and shoulders square,as if ready to defend.
These results told the researchers that mixed signals can confuse people.Even when people pay attention to the face,body language subtly influences which emotion they read.
(55)D And if you want to be understood,it helps to avoid sending mixed messages.

A.Scientists feel new to study the mixed message that confuses people.
B.Studying such mixed messages is nothing new for scientists.
C.Body language can sometimes be misunderstood in different culture backgrounds.
D.So,your body language is important for telling people how you feel.
E.An angry body had arms back and shoulders at an angle,as if ready to fight.
F.They also showed pictures in which angry or scared faces were paired with angry or scared bodies.
G.When you do this,your face and body work together to show your friends that you're happy to see them.
8.If you want your life to stand for peace and kindness,it's helpful to do some kind,peaceful things.One of my favorite ways to do this is by (41)Amy own helping rituals(习惯).These little acts of kindness are opportunities to be of service and reminders of how good it feels to be kind and (42)D.
We live in a rural area of the San Francisco Bay Area.Most of what we see is the(43)Aof nature.One of the (44)B to the beauty is the litter that some people throw out of their windows (45)Cthey are driving on the rural roads.One of the few(46)Dto living out the boondocks(偏远地区)is that public(47)C,such as litter collection,are less(48)A than those closer to the city.
A helping ritual that I practice(49)B with my two children is picking up litter in our surrounding areas.We've become(50)D accustomed to doing this that my daughters will often say to me in (51)B voices,"There's some litter,Daddy,(52)Cthe car!"And if we have enough time,we will often(53)Cand pick it up.It seems strange,but we actually(54)D it.We pick up litter in parks,on sidewalks,practically anywhere.Once I even saw a complete stranger(55)Blitter close to our house.He smiled at me and said,"I saw you doing this,and it seemed like a good (56)A."
Picking up litter is only one of an endless supply of possible helping rituals.You might like holding a door open for people,visiting (57)B old people in nursing homes,or(58)Csnow from someone else's driveway.Think of something that seems (59)A yet helpful.It's funny,personally rewarding,and can be a good example.And everyone (60)D from this.

5.[1]Hi,I write this letter to you,my parents,to let you know what I'm thinking.
[2]Running a business,raising three children,then raising all three into self-sufficient college graduates is difficult to do.While loving each child individually and fairly,strict house rules have also developed…going out late is difficult to accomplish.I would like to suggest setting a later curfew (宵禁),maybe midnight,or even one o'clock in the morning.
[3]While working up to twenty hours a week,my social life has been on the decline since school started.Naturally,you understand how important my friends are to me.Looking back to the summer,there have been many nights that I have wanted to go out,but if it was past nine o'clock,I would not be allowed to.You tell me to go to the party until my curfew,but if the rule continues,I will see my friends for an hour.Seeing my friends for an hour is better than nothing,but not enough to communicate with others.
[4]Gaining confidence and trust from you both are things I look forward to,and hopefully I am at an age where I can live up to your expectations.I acknowledge that you are watching over me,and don't want your little girl to be hurt,and I appreciate that fully.But I can ____________ now that I am older.
[5]For the time and effort it has taken you to raise me,I sincerely thank you,but letting freedom into my teenage years will be beneficial to all of us.Please feel free to talk to me whenever you have made a decision.I'll always be around.

76.What is the writer's purpose in writing the letter?(within 10 words)
To let her parents know what she is thinking./To communicate with her parents./To get more freedom.
77.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 4 with proper words.(within 6 words)
take care of myself
78.Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one?
    I will always be available and ready for a talk.
I'll always be around
79.Do you think strict house rules are necessary for teenagers?And why?(within 30 words)
No,because letting freedom into my teenage years will be beneficial to all of us.
80.Translate the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 into Chinese.和朋友见面一小时总比不见强,但是和其他人交流却远远不够..
6.I have had just about enough of being treated like a second-class citizen,simply because I happen to be that unfairly treated member of society---a customer.The more I go into shops and hotels,banks and post offices,railway stations,airports and the like,the more I am convinced the things are being run merely to suit the firm,the system,or the union.There seems to be a deceptive (欺骗的) new motto for so-called"service"organizations---Staff Before Service.
How often,for example,have you queued for what seems like hours at the Post Office or the supermarket because there was not enough staff on duty to manage all the service grilles or checkout counters?Surely in these days of high unemployment it must be possible to hire cashiers and counter staff.Yet supermarkets,hinting darkly at higher prices,claim that uncovering all their cash registers at any one time would increase operating costs.And the Post Office says we cannot expect all their service grilles to be occupied"at times when demand is low".
It is the same with hotels.Because waiters and kitchen staff must finish when it suits them,dining rooms close earlier or menu choice is cut short.As for us guests,we just have to put up with it.There is also the nonsense of so many friendly hotel night porters having been thrown out of their jobs in the interests of"efficiency"and replaced by coin-eating machines which offer everything.Not to mention the tea-making kit in your room:a kettle with a mixed collection of tea bags,plastic milk boxes and lump sugar.Who wants to wake up to a raw teabag?I do not,especially when I am paying for"service".
Can it be stopped,this worsening of service,this growing attitude that the customer is always a trouble?I angrily hope so because it is happening,sadly,in all walks of life.
Our only hope is to hammer home our anger whenever and wherever we can and,if all else fails,bring back into practice that other,older slogan---Take Our Deal Elsewhere.

A.have become victims of modern organizations
B.are unworthy of proper consideration
C.have received high quality service

B.customers'needs have become more complex
C.the staff receive more consideration than customers
D.staff members are less considerate than their employers
69.According to the writer,long queues at counters are caused byC.
A.not having enough male staff on duty
B.difficulties in hiring more efficient staff
C.not providing enough staff on purpose to reduce budget
D.lack of cooperation between staff members
70.The writer suggests that a customerA.

B.put up with the rude manners of the staff
C.try to control his temper when ill-treated
