13．Researchers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger's personality simply by looking at the person's shoes．"Shoes convey a thin but useful slice of information about their wearers，"the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality．"Shoes serve a practical purpose，and also serve as nonverbal cues（线索）with symbolic messages．People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear．"
    Medical Daily notes that the number of detailed personality traits（特质）detected in the study include a person's general age，income，political tendency，and other personality traits，including someone's emotional stability．Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style，cost，color and condition of someone's shoes．In the study，63 University of Kansas students looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants．Participants in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes，and then filled out a personality questionnaire．
    So，what do your shoes say about your personality？Some of the results were expected：People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes，and flashier footwear was typically worn by outgoing people．However，some of the more specific results are interesting．For example，"practical and functional"shoes were generally worn by more"friendly"people，while ankle boots were more closely connected with"aggressive"personalities．The strangest of all may be that those who wore"uncomfortable looking"shoes tend to have"calm"personalities．
    And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take exceptional care of them，you may suffer from"attachment anxiety，"spending too much time worrying about what other people think of your appearance．There was even a political calculation in the mix with wearing"shabbier and less expensive"shoes．
    The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personality traits，but researchers pointed out that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were revealing deep insights into their personalities．
41．By looking at a person's shoes，it's possible for people toB
A．know the wearer thoroughly                                   
B．estimate the wearer's character
C．have exact cues about the wearer's social status
D．judge the wearer's educational background
42．Which statement is Not true according to the passage？C
A．In the study，people's personality traits were detected．
B．In the study，participants wore 208 different shoes．
C．In the study，63 students were asked to fill out questionnaire about personality．
D．In the study，judgments were made according to various characteristics of people's shoes．
43．What can we know about the passage？B
A．Wealthy people favor shiny shoes．
B．Calm people prefer shoes with uncomfortable appearance．
C．Friendly people are likely to wear ankle boots．
D．Outgoing people always wear shoes with practical functions．
44．Taking exceptional care of new shoes shows thatA
A．the owners care much about others'opinions on their appearance 
B．the owners are in a relaxed state
C．the owners are particular about their appearance     
D．the owners have too many shoes to choose from
45．What is the best title of the passage？D
A．How To Choose Suitable Shoes

18．The world is not coming to an end on December 21，2012，the US space agency insisted Monday in a rare campaign to dispel widespread rumors fueled by the Internet and a new Hollywood movie．
The latest big screen offering from Sony Picture，2012，arrives in theaters on Friday，with a 200-million-dollar production about the end of the world supposedly based on myths （虚构的故事） backed by the Mayan calendar．It is claimed that the end of time will come as a Planet X-or Nibiru-heads toward or collides with the Earth．
Some websites accuse NASA of hiding the truth on the planet's existence，but the US space agency denounced such stories as an"Internet hoax（恶作剧）"．"There is no factual basis for these claims，"NASA said in a question and answer posting on its website．"If such a collision were real，astronomers would have been tracking it for at least the past decade，and it would be visible by now to the naked eye．Obviously，it does not exist．Credible scientists worldwide know of no threat associated with 2012，"it insisted．"After all，our planet has been getting along just well for more than four billion years，"added NASA．
There is another planet，Eris，floating in space．But the small planet similar to Pluto will remain safely fixed in the outer solar system and it can come no closer than four billion miles to the Earth，according to NASA．
Initial theories set the disaster for May 2003，but when nothing happened the date was moved forward to the winter in 2012 to coincide with the end of a cycle of the ancient Mayan calendar．
NASA insisted the Mayan calendar in fact does not end on December 21，2012，as another period begins immediately afterward．
And even if the planets were to line up as some have forecast，the effect on our planet would be"negligible"，NASA said．
"And while comets and asteroids （小行星） have always hit the Earth，big hits are very rare，"NASA noted．The last major impact was believed to be 65 million years ago，resulting in the end of dinosaurs．
"We have already determined that there are no threatening asteroids as large as the one that killed the dinosaurs，"the space agency said．

8．Have you heard of the"Doomsday（世界末日）clock"？
While the name sounds particular enough to draw our attention，there is no way to actually predict doomsday．The clock is a visual way of representing the dangers our world faces and the urgency to act-with midnight symbolizing doomsday．
The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists，the organization that maintains（维护）the clock，decided to keep the clock at 3minutes to midni-the same as last year．Despite the Iran nuclear deal that weakened the threat（威胁）of nuclear war，the organization continues to worry about the lack of progress on other global issues of concern．
The clock was created nearly 70years ago by a group of scientists who had worked on the Manhattan project-that created the world's first atomic bomb．The bombs were dropped on two Japanese cities．Though it brought an end to one of the worst wars in human history，the bombs also exposed the world to the dangers of nuclear technology．
One of the nuclear physicists on the Manhattan project was married to an artist named Martyl Kangsdorf．It was Martyl's idea to create a clock and set the hand to seven minutes to midnight when it first created．
Since then，the clock has been a powerful way to show humanity how close the world is to catastrophe due to human action．To maintain this clock，every year twenty members of the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists gather together and assess the biggest threats to humanity．When scientists looked back at the events of 2015．two significant threats continued to exist-climate change and investment in nuclear weapons by various nations around the world．
According to the scientists，we may be able to avoid disaster if humanity reduces spending on nuclear weapons，sharply reduces greenhouse gases，deals with commercial nuclear waste，and makes agreements to prevent the misuse of new technologies．

32．The Doomsday clock was created forD．
A．reminding people of the painful past
B．correcting time to the same standard
C．predicting the doomsday of the world
D．warning humanity of the urgent threats
33．What does the underlined word"it"in Paragraph 4refer to？C
A．The doomsday clock．         B．The first atomic bomb．
C．Dropping the atomic bombs．  D．The Manhattan project．
34．What are considered the most urgent threats that today's world faces？A
A．Climate change and nuclear weapons．
B．High-tech war and space research．
C．Extreme poverty and serious diseases．
D．Natural disasters and low birth rate．
35．What can be inferred from this passage？D
A．Human beings have no way to deal with their urgent threats．
B．The world will continuously face more threats whatever we do．
C．Martyl created the Doomsday clock just to amuse local citizens．
D．Most threats we face now are actually caused by humanity itself．
15．Dieting is often doomed to failure．The problem is，we don't follow the rules we learn．No carbs after 6pm？No problem-until we're out for dinner，on our second glass of wine and reaching for the bread basket．Everyone has a flash point that makes it hard to say no，but ultimately，resisting temptation is the key to successful weight loss．
Now research from leading psychologists has identified the parts of the brain involved in resisting temptation，and how we can use them to stop reaching for chocolate cake．Leading the charge is Professor Walter Mischel，the psychologist who developed the ‘marshmallow test'，which demonstrated that if children were able to delay gratification（满足感），they would be more successful in later life．Mischel's research has shown that to resist temptation，we have to shift activity away from the‘hot'parts of our brain to the‘cool'parts．The mind brain has two systems：one is cool，slow and deliberate，and allows for self-control，goal-setting and willpower-the‘no'system，if you like．The other is hot，emotional and instinctual，and present from birth-the‘go'system．
So when you see a chocolate cake，the‘hot'part of your brain reacts to thoughts of the delicious taste，and the sugar rush that you have learnt a slice will give you．Instead of giving in，what you need to do is to activate the‘cool'part of your brain by thinking about your goals and practicing far-sightedness．Imagine the sense of satisfaction you'd get，from fitting into your favorite dress in a couple of weeks'time，say，or from losing your unsightly tummy bulge before you go sunbathing this summer．It's a simple strategy，but experiments have shown it is highly effective．
Perception is also important．Feasting your eyes on desirable food activates the hot system in the brain，which explains what we know instinctively：putting biscuits out of sight in a cupboard will mean you eat fewer of them．"The problem with diets is they are also full of pictures of delicious diet food； and all of this is just activating the hot system，"Mischel says．
Stress is another key issue．It has been shown to switch on the hot part of the brain and cause us to overeat．The first thing to do is to be aware of how stress changes your behavior．Then develop an action plan to deal with it．This might involve taking healthy snacks to work or finding ways to cope better with your time and emotions．
Brain scans have also shown that memory plays a significant role in overeating．If you habitually eat chocolate，for instance，then every time you see it，you remember the high．So the research is clear：if you want to be slim，fit and healthy，it's time to take control of your mind．

B．We shouldn't have a flash point to keep a diet．

C．It urges that children should learn to delay gratification for later success．
