3．Good relationships are definitely good sources of happiness in life．We all want happy relationships but if we do not keep that relationship alive，it can also be one of the most  distraughtthings in life．There may be no hard and fast rules in making good relationships，as each of us has different preferences and points of view as to what is a great relationship．The following are some major key points in making relationships work．
It is often said that building good relationships is all about communication．Good communication indeed governs a good relationship-knowing the right thing to say，when to say it，how to say it，and accepting that some things are better left unsaid．I personally think communication must be broadened because relationships involve more decisions to make．From study to work，from money to entertainment and even in things about yourself or about your friend that you do not know，communication is essential in these aspects of the relationships．
Of course，being with someone is not saying that you totally agree with him all the time．You and your friend come from different family backgrounds，raised in different environments so there may be disagreements here and there．However，it is important in making relationships work to express disagreements without pushing the relationship to end．Again，good communication and learning to compromise （妥协） at times are necessary．
As the relationship lasts longer，you may also discover things about you and your friend that you may not have known before．Therefore，supporting each other on both your"hidden selves"can also make a good relationship．
Love is an important aspect of building relationships and for me，I always believe that love needs open communication，respect，support and understanding each other in making relationships work．

53．The underlined word"distraught"in Paragraph 1probably meansD．
A．helpless      
B．surprising         
C．funny         
D．upsetting
54．To communicate well with people，you should know thatC．

B．compromises are essential at any time
C．a white lie is necessary sometimes
D．your friends need to have the same backgrounds with you

A．The Importance to Express Disagreements
B．Keys to Making Relationships Work
C．Different Opinions on Good Relationships
D．Forbidden Rules in Building Good Relationships．

3．Handwriting has existed for about 6，000years．It's one of our most important inventions．Without it，we wouldn't be able to record knowledge or pass ideas from one generation to the next．
Most of us know，but often forget，that handwriting is not natural．It's not like seeing or talking，which are what we are born with．In early America，only wealthy men and businessmen learned to write．A"good hand"became a sign of class and intelligence as well as morality．Most，meanwhile，signed legal documents with a mere‘X'and the presence of a witness．Writing only spread to the masses in the 19th century，after schools began teaching handwriting．
   67  -left-handed students often had their arm tied tightly to their bodies，so they'd learn to write with the"correct"hand．In more modern times，you may remember spending hours learning the correct stroke（笔画），formation and spacing of upper-and lower-case letters．
But today，schools are shifting the focus to coursework in STEM-short for science，technology，engineering and mathematics．With limited hours and an increased pressure to meet higher standards，teachers are emphasizing technology and tablets and less of the written word．
Technology has threatened writing long before every man，woman and child carried a phone．It came with the invention of the typewriter，which standardized written communication，and that same argument will reappear as technology advances．
I don't know if handwriting will ever die．But today，the growing emphasis on typing is having far-reaching effects．To get a glimpse of the future，just look at the youth．Instead of curly Qs or crazy Ls，kids are using emoticons such as ? or Λ to give a personal touch．
Typing is more democratic，too-it isn't a complicated skill to master．Keyboards are changing the physical connection between writers and text，and people who can't write by hand，like the blind，can now use tools to communicate only by touch．
I suppose it's easy to grieve over the passing of one era （年代） into another．Sure，I'll miss the writing of letters，and the beautiful and well-practiced signature written with a pen．And while some pathways in our brains will weaken with the decline of handwriting，we'll develop new ones as we swipe （滑动） and double-click our way into the future．

66．Before the 19th century in America，C．

C．Schools tried different ways to force students to write
D．Young people worked hard to improve handwriting

15．There is a small shop about 200meters from where I live that sells groceries，meat and other basic necessities．About 10years ago，there was a beggar who would go into the shop every day and ask the owner for a （36）C．The owner，although he would love to help，simply didn't have any jobs available，so he kept （37）D the man's request．
This situation continued daily for a few months，until the owner （38）A to give the homeless man a job which （39）B sweeping outside the shop．Every single day from 5am，the homeless man was there doing the very best he could for the （40）C，and it did earn him some pennies．（41）D，the owner saw how good a job the man was doing and gave him a job working as a cashier．He was watched closely to make sure that he didn't （42）B any of the money received from the sales．He was still homeless，after all．The homeless man did a/an （43）A job as a cashier for over 2years，and did such a good job that he was promoted to（44）D the finance for the whole shop．
To my knowledge，this was the arrangement up until 2years ago，when the owner （45）C．In his will，he only had one request，to give the whole shop to the now stable，"homeless"man．Now，I could walk into that shop and see him working as hard as ever，with his own business that is still （46）B and active 10years after getting his job as a sweeper．
From this story，we can probably get the inspiration：work hard and give everything your best effort，even if it isn't your （47）A situation，it may turn out to be very good some day in the future．

2．How many things can you see in the night sky？A lot!On a clear night you might see the Moon，some planets，and thousands of sparkling stars．
You can see even more with a telescope．You might see stars where before you only saw dark space．You might see that many stars look larger than others．You might see that some stars that look white are really red or blue．With bigger and bigger telescopes you can see more and more objects in the sky．And you can see those objects in more and more detail．
But scientists believe there are some things in the sky that we will never see．We won't see them with the biggest telescope in the world，on the clearest night of the year．
That's because they're invisible．They're the mysterious dead stars called black holes．
You might find it hard to imagine that stars die．After all，our Sun is a star．Year after year we see it up in the sky，burning brightly，giving us heat and light．The Sun certainly doesn't seem to be getting old or weak．But stars do burn out and die after billions of years．
As a star's gases burn，they give off light and heat．But when the gas runs out，the star stops burning and begins to die．
As the star cools，the outer layers of the star pull in toward the center．The star squashes into a smaller and smaller ball．If the star was very small，the star ends up as a cold，dark ball called a black dwarf．If the star was very big，it keeps squashing inward until it's packed together tighter than anything in the universe．
Imagine if the Earth were crushed until it was the size of a tiny marble．That's how tightly this dead star，a black hole，is packed．What pulls the star in toward its center with such power？It's the same force that pulls you down when you jump-the force called gravity．A black hole is so tightly packed that its gravity sucks in everything-even light．The light from a black hole can never come back to your eyes．That's why you see nothing but blackness．
So the next time you stare up at the night sky，remember：there's more in the sky than meets the eye!Scattered in the silent darkness are black holes-the great mystery of space．
 
66．According to the article，what causes a star to die？D
A．As it gets hotter and hotter，it explodes．
B．It collides with other stars．
C．It can only live for about a million years．
D．As its gases run out，it cools down．
67．Which of the following statements is NOT a fact？B
A．Black holes are dead stars．
B．There is nothing as mysterious as a black hole．
C．Black holes are invisible．
D．Black holes have gravity．
68．Which of the following is NOT a feature of a black dwarf？A
A．It is usually bigger than a white dwarf．
B．It is dark．
C．It is smaller in size than a common star．
D．It is cold．
69．What happens after a star dies？C
A．It burns up all of its gases．
B．It falls to Earth．
C．It becomes invisible．
D．It becomes brighter and easier to see．
70．Why can't you see light when you look at a black hole？D
A．For most black holes are so far away．
B．As the star's gases burn，it stops giving off heat and light．
C．As a star cools，its outer layers pull in toward its center．
D．The gravity of a black hole is so strong that it sucks the light inward．
8．It was shortly before midnight，and Dr Patricia was getting ready for bed．The phone rang on the end of the line was a woman about to break a promise．
The woman was her mother's neighbour．Flora Harris had made the neighbour swear she wouldn't tell her daughter she'd a heart attack and was in the hospital，for fear her daughter would worry．The neighbour wisely decided to disobey orders．
Harris desperately wanted to get to the hospital immediately，but she couldn't．She lives in Washington，D．C，and her mother lives in California．
For the past year a half，Harris has gone to Los Angeles every other month to take care of her mother．Flora Harris takes care of her husband，James，who's 91and has Alzheimer's disease．They live in their own home，and a caregiver comes to help them a few hours a day．
Harris is one of many Americans facing the heartache of how to take care of aging parents from afar．She's often worried，not to mention extremely busy with a demanding job，two teenage daughters and the frequent trips to California．
In some ways，Harris is lucky．She has the resources to make the trips to Los Angeles．Plus，Harris is a doctor who treats the elderly．
"But it's still tough，"she said．"I can foresee what the next few years are going to look like，and it's not a pretty picture．My father's going to need diapers （尿布）．There will come a time when he won't recognize me and he's easily excited．I worry he's going to be violent and hurt my mother．"
So what do you do when you live a continent away for your aging，sick parents？There are no magic answers．You can hire someone to help，but you can't outsource it completely．

B．He parents cannot take themselves at all．
C．She cannot do a demanding job．
D．She cannot afford to go to California often．

15．My dad works for a food organization that travels to rural areas to offer food，medical assistance as well as entertainment．Recently I went with him to one of their working places．I was there simply to give people（26）A，hand them a flyer （单） send them on their way．It was not and tiring，and I wasn't having much （27）B．Honestly，I didn't really（28）D，and ended up doing it halfheartedly．

9．A new study finds that combining music therapy（疗法）  with a standard treatment for depression-medication，plus psychotherapy and counseling （辅导）-improves patient outcomes．
Researchers invited 79people between the ages of 18and 50years old who had been diagnosed with depression.33of the participants were offered 20music therapy sessions，in addition to their usual treatment for depression．The other 46participants received stan dard treatment，and acted as the control group．The one-on-one music therapy sessions each lasted 60 minutes and took place twice a week．Trained music therapists helped each participant to improvise（即兴创作）music．
On average，each participant attended 18 music therapy sessions，29 individuals（88 percent）attended at least 15 sessions．The participants in both groups were followed up at three and six months and assessed for symptoms of depression and anxiety．
 In the final analysis，researchers discovered that after three months of participation，individuals who received music therapy showed greatly fewer symptoms of depression and anxiety，and scored better on general functioning．Although improvements still remainded after six months，the difference between the groups was no longer statistically significant．
Co-researcher Christian Gold，Ph．D．，explained the study findings："Our trial has shown that music therapy，when added to standard care including  medication，psychotherapy and counseling（商讨），helps people to improve their levels of depression and anxiety．Music therapy has specific qualities that allow people to express themselves and interact in  a non-verbal way-even when they cannot find the words to describe their inner experiences．"
 Given the success of the study，researchers say it needs to be repeated with a larger sample of people，and that further research is needed to assess the cost-effectiveness of sucha therapy．
Outside experts believe this study shows that music therapy is an effective addition to traditional therapy and improves outcomes．Mike Crawford，M．D．，said，"This is a high-quality randomized（随机的）trialof music therapy specifically for depression，and the results suggest that it can improve the mood and general functioning of people with depression"．
