13．With the crazy smog going on in China，businessmen are now ready to grope for your wallet．"Smog economy"is stimulating a shopping spree on certain products against the terrible weather．Now let's see what we have on the list to help us through the crisis．
1．Masks
Well，I would say you had better stay indoors to save your lives．PM 2.5 just surged up to 750 in Beijing recently.3M just sold 220，000 masks of a kind．No.1 best-selling products!
2．Air purifiers
This kind of products is rarely seen in Chinese households in the past．They have become a necessity now．I do like these little gadgets，but they are just too expensive．
3．Oxygen inhalers
I didn't realize oxygen inhalers also get a cut in the smog economy．As a matter of fact，your oxygen uptake has nothing to with relieving （减轻） the impact of smog．It might even lead to oxygen poisoning when you inhale too much oxygen．So don't get greedy．
4．Salt lamps
Compared to oxygen inhalers，salt lamps are even worse．Some stores are selling the products at several hundred yuan，saying that they can release negative ions（离子），reduce radiation levels and purify the air．The lamps mainly contain sodium chloride．The boiling point of sodium is about 800 degrees centigrade and that of candle is 500．So how on earth can negative ions be released at only 500 degrees？
5．Plants that absorb smog
Yeah，right．Plants Vs Smog．It is scientifically justified （证明） that some plants do absorb pollutants from the air．Money plants and calla lilies are among the best-sellers in the market．Even if they don't work，it's good to have some plants in the house anyway．

3．Anxiety is your mental watchman． Its fixed pattern is to search for what may be about to go wrong．it continually，and without your conscious permission，scans your life，even when you are asleep，in dreams and nightmares．（71）BWhen it finds one，it worries it．
Along with depression and anger，anxiety is one of the bad faces of worries（72）DControlled by anxiety，you will feel a lack of security and confidence． When anxiety is severe and pained，it can be a sign of a disorder，such as panic or terror．
Although anxiety seems to have a biological basis，it is habit-forming for many of us． Some of our anxious feelings are in fact wasted energy． Anxiety has gotten out of hand when it is pointless and repeated． When you are faced with a problem at work，before taking a test，or making an important decision，you will feel anxious． When you are controlled by anxiety，you are unable to control your emotions（情感） to the point of it changing your daily routine and habits．（73）GOr you find you are usually anxious at work or around your family．
At times，you should listen to the message of your negative emotions，as uncomfortable as they may be，and change your outward life rather than your emotional life．（74）FIf you are worried about the dangers of your brother's new hobby，sky diving，perhaps you ought to tell him so． Taking action may relieve your anxiety．（75）EBy learning to stop always seeking guarantee，not only can you start to undo the automatic cycle of anxiety，but also you learn that you can manage just fine without the need for constant guarantee． This in turn creates a sense of self-confidence and self-respect，which is vital to overcome anxiety．

A． For these people，saying NO to others is often of much anxiety．
B．It reviews your work，your love，your play，until it finds an imperfection．
C． Comparing anxiety with depression helps to discuss possible cures for anxiety．
D． These three common emotions are considered the cause of most mental illnesses．
E．If that doesn't work，then it's time to deal with any automatic thoughts in yourself．
F． If you are anxious about the work，you might get to the office an hour earlier every day．
G． You find yourself waking up anxious，going through the day anxious and going to bed anxious．
10．Many people focus on physical fitness，but few know that brain fitness is also something you can work on．In fact，you can exercise your brain as often as you work out your arms or abs--and the results can be positive and empowering．It's helpful to think of your brain as you work out a muscle．To improve your brain，you can't simply repeat the same exercises over and over．Just as lifting a two pound weight will no longer challenge you，so will repetitive exercises such as crosswords or Sudoku．Once you master easy exercises，you must move on to harder ones in order to push your brain-like your muscles-to a new level．
Scientists once believed that your mental abilities were fixed in adulthood．Now that studies on neuroplasticity have shown just the opposite，millions of people around the world have adopted the new practice of brain training．
The most popular of these brain training products is made by the San Francisco-based Lumosity，which employs a team of in-house neuroscientists with degrees from Stanford and UC Berkeley．Realizing that brains need more sophisticated programs and guidance to grow and change，Lumosity's scientists work with an experienced team of game designers．Together they've developed a fun，effective online brain training program that measures，tracks，and adapts to your progress so you'll always be challenged．Lumosity's training system and 40+games are based on well-studied tests used in clinical neuropsychology research．
In a 2013 Stanford study，a treatment group of 21 breast cancer survivors used 12 weeks of Lumosity training to work on processing speed，mental flexibility，and working memory tasks．On average，those who trained improved on tests of these abilities，compared to a group that did not train with Lumosity．There is even some first round evidence suggesting that Lumosity may be beneficial to normal，healthy adults．In a 2011 study by Lumosity and San Francisco State University researchers，13 people who did Lumosity training over 5 weeks improved on tests of brain performance compared to a group that did not train．On average，those who trained improved working memory scores by 10% and attention scores by 20%．
Training can take just a few minutes a day，but the rewards can make a difference in many aspects of life．The goal of brain training is not to improve game scores：it's to improve the underlying core abilities that those games rely on．Lumosity is one of the first and most popular brain training programs in existence．There's a small fee to use the full product，or new users can start a free trial．

7．Whether we should allow marine （海洋的） parks to stay open has been widely debated in our community recently．A variety of different arguments have been put forward about it．
Smith，a sociologist，argued that dolphin parks provide the only opportunity for much of the public to see marine mammals．As this argument goes，most Australians live in cities and never get to see these animals．Marine parks allow the average Australian to appreciate our marine wildlife．However，in fact，there are many places where they can be seen in the wild．Moreover，these places do not charge an overpriced entry fee-they are free．
Dr．Alison Lane，the director of the Cairns Marine Science Institute，insists that we need marine parks for scientific research．She argues that much of our knowledge of marine mammals comes from studies which were undertaken at marine parks．The knowledge which is obtained at marine parks can be useful for planning for the preservation of marine mammal species．However，Jones，a zoologist，explains that park research is only useful for understanding captive animals and is not useful for learning about animals in the wild．Their diets are different，they have significantly lower life lengths and they are more likely to have a disease．In addition，marine mammals in dolphin parks are trained and this means that their patterns of social behaviour are changed．
The Marine Park Owners Association holds that marine parks attract a lot of foreign tourists．This position goes on to state that these tourists spend a lot of money，increasing our foreign exchange earnings and assisting our national balance of payments．However，foreign tourists would still come to Australia if the parks were closed down．Indeed，surveys of overseas tourists show that they come here for a variety of other reasons and not to visit places like Seaworld．Tourists come here to see our native wildlife in its natural environment and not to see it in cages and concrete pools．They can see animals in those conditions in their own countries．
In a word，perhaps an agreement cannot be reached now．However，a question does deserve our consideration：If we continue with our past crimes against these creatures，how will our future generations view us？

67．Who support（s） the idea of closing marine parks？D
A．Most Australians．       B．Alison Lane．
C．Smith．                  D．Jones．
68．What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 3？B
A．The results from studies are valuable in animal preservation．
B．Scientific research at the marine parks has its limitations．
C．Captive animals have biology changes in marine parks．
D．Human behavior causes harmful effects on the animals．
69．Which is NOT the reason to keep marine parks？D
A．For entertainment purpose．
B．For scientific research purpose．
C．For economic purpose．
D．For political purpose．
70．The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly byA．
A．pointing out the problems with keeping the marine parks
B．using evidence he has collected at the marine parks
C．discussing the advantages of animals'natural homes
D．questioning the way the animals are studied．
6．How to Relieve Exam Stress
Exam time is here and stress levels are up．You're stuck indoors hitting the books，writing papers，and preparing projects．With the importance of exams，it is understandable that you feel stressed．When faced with something stressful，your body reacts．（36）G．
Yes．You Can!
Believe in yourself that you can pass the exam．Don't focus on how bad it would be for you if you performed poorly．Instead，focus on how good it would be when you did well．
（37）E．Don't let it get into a panic，though．Just c1ose your eyes and take long slow breaths．Doing so will calm your nerves and help you get back your focus．
Don't Cram for Exams
Research has shown that cramming（临时突击）at the last minute for exerts is not efficient．It only adds more stress to your body and mind for lack of sleep and poor nutrition．
Instead of cramming，review your notes，read or do what you would normally do for a test．You have already mastered all the knowledge you need．（38）B．A rested body and a sharp mind will put you in a good state．
Keep a Normal Life
One of the best ways you can relieve the stress of exams is to keep a normal life．After studying you should reward yourself．（39）F．It will do wonders to relieve your stress，but be sure to get back in time and get a good night's sleep．
Eat Well and Exercise
Food is energy for the brain，so be sure to eat well．Energy drinks are NOT food．Try brain foods such as bananas，other fruits and foods high in carbon．
Exercise is also a great way to relieve stress．Shooting basketball with friends or working out at the gym will help raise your energy and reduce stress．（40）C

A．They will be over soon!
B．So try to get a good night's sleep．
C．Even a walk around campus will raise your energy level．
D．You can build your body in various ways．
E．It's normal to feel nervous before and during an exam．
F．Go out with friends to get a good meal．
G．You just need to understand this is a normal reaction and take steps to deal with it．
16．Much of the work to _______ things _______ has happened in the browser，which people use to load a specific website quickly．（　　）
