12．Pakistan came intoexistence （存在） as an independent country after the war．
13．EmpathyLast year，researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy，the ability to understand other people，among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years．（31）BToday，people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs．
Jennifer Freed，a co-director of a teen program，has another explanation．Turn on the TV，and you're showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting，competing，and generally treating one another with no respect．（32）D
There are good reasons not to ollow those bad examples．Humans are socially related by nature．（33）G Researchers have also found that empthetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect．Besides，empathy can be a cure for loneliness，sadness，anxiety，and fear．
Empathy is also an indication of a good leader．In fact，Freed says，many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers．（34）F"Academics are important．But if you don't have emotional （情感的） intelligence，you won't be as successful in work or in your love life，"she says．
What's the best way to up your EQ （情商）？For starters，let down your guard and really listen to others．（35）C
To really develop empathy，you'd better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital，join a club or a team that has a diverse membership，have a"sharing circle"with your family，or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter．

A．Everyone is different，and levels of empathy differ from person to person．
B．That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time，the researchers said．
C．"One doesn't develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking，"Freed says．
D．Humans learn by example-and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic．
E．Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else-both what they think and how they feel．
F．Good social skills-including empathy-are a kind of"emotional intelligence"that will help you succeed in many areas of life．
GHaving relationships with other people is an important part of being human-and having empathy is decisive to those relationships．

8．It's generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudes．They recycle their garbage because they care about the environment．They pay $5 for a caramel brulée latte because they like expensive coffee drinks．
It's undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions（性情），but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are，as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bern，by observing our own behavior．We can be strangers to ourselves．If we knew our own minds，why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior？If our minds were an open book，we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes．Actually，we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are．
Moreover，we don't just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character-we infer characters that weren't there before．Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us，which we fail to recognize．Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn't．Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us．We should not believe that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition．
Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make，people become what they do，though it may not be in compliance（符合）with their true desires．Therefore，we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegut's advice："We are what we pretend to be，so we must be careful about what we pretend to be．"

A．We fail to realize our inner dispositions．

"I have used all my prehistoric powers （66）to swim（swim），"Fu Yuanhui said in an interview after she qualified for the women's 100m backstroke final．When asked（67）whather hopes were for the final．she said："No expectation!I'm very satisfied now!"．
That's how she began to rock China's internet and social media．Add her exaggerated（68）facial（face） expressions and humour，and she quickly became an online celebrity．She eventually won a bronze medal in the 100m backstroke final，not gold．（69）Butthat hasn't reduced the affection from her fans．
Young Chinese social media（70）users（user） have been drawn to her straight-forward character，her sincerity and her attitude towards competition．
Joanna Zhan，a fan in Chongqing，said she liked Fu because she is"so cute，and she is as powerful（71）as a mudslide （泥石流）"．"Fu interpreted the Olympic spirit of challenging（72）herself（she） and enjoying the game，"she added．
One fan，Feng Zhu，told the BBC she liked Fu because she always said（73）exactly （exact）what was on her mind．
JingYingLi，a female entrepreneur in Sichuan province，said she heard about Fu from her friends．"Almost everyone（74）is talking（talk） about her，"she said．But it seems Fu is part of a generational change in attitude towards（75）competitions（compete）．
5．The story happened in Japan（61）where a house was redecorated and the wall inside a room was removed．The inside of the wall was hollow．When the owner of the house removed the wall，he saw a gecko（壁虎） inside the wall．Its tail was pinned by a nail（62）coming（come） through the wall from outside．
The owner was very curious why the gecko was still alive．Then the nail caught his eye．Goodness!It is the nail that was driven here ten years ago when the house was built!How amazing it is （63）forthe gecko to have lived in the wall in complete （64）darkness（dark） for ten years!
But on second thought，the curious house owner wondered how this gecko could live through ten years with its tail nailed down and being unable to go anywhere．So he tried to find out how this small creature could be fed．After a little while，there appeared another gecko with food in （65）itsmouth!What a shocking scene!For ten years，this little gecko had never failed to feed the （66）trapped（trap） one．
The story touched me so （67）deeply（ deep） that it is useless to find out（68）whatrelationships they had between them．Parent （69）andchild？Friends？Lovers？Brothers or sisters？（70）The last thing we should do is to abandon your beloved in hardship．
2．Did you hear what happened at yesterday's meeting？Can you believe it？If you find those sorts of quietly whispered questions about your so-workers irresistible，you're hardly alone．But why are we drawn to gossip？
A new study suggests it's because the rumors are all about us．"Gossip receivers tend to use positive and negative group information to improve，promote，and protect the self，"writes a research team led by Elena Martinescu of the University of Groningen in the Netherlands．In the journal Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin，the researchers describe two experiments testing the personal value gossip receivers get．
The first featured 178 university undergraduates who had all previously worked on at least one course assignment with a group of four or more students．Participants were asked to recall and write a short description of an incident in which a group members shared with them either positive or negative information about another group member's secret．They then reported their level of agreement with a series of statements．Some of these measured the self-improvement value of the gossip （"The information received made me think I can learn a lot from X"）； others measured its self-promotion value （"The information I received made me feel that I am doing well compared to X"）．Still others measured whether the gossip raised personal concerns （"The information I received made me feel that I must protect my image in the group"）．
In the second experiment，122 undergraduates were assigned the role of"sales agent"at a major company．They received gossip from a colleague that a third person either did very well or very badly at a performance evaluation，and were then asked about the emotions that information caused．They also responded to the above-mentioned set of statements presented to participants in the first experiment．
In each experiment，participants found both negative and positive gossip to be of personal value with different reasons．"Positive gossip has self-improvement value，"they write．"Competence-related positive gossip about others contains lessons about how to improve one's own competence．"On the other hand，negative gossip has self-promotion value，because it provides individuals with social comparison information that justifies self-promoting judgments which results in feelings of pride．"
In addition，the results"showed that negative gossip elicited self-protection concerns，"the researchers write．"Negative gossip makes people concerned that their reputations may be at risk，as they may personally become targets of negative gossip in the future，which generates fear．"Fear is hardly a pleasant sensation（感觉），but it can be a motivating one．As researchers put it："Gossip conveniently provides individuals with indirect social-comparison information about relevant others．"
 
58．Why are we drawn to gossip according to the researchers？A
A．We need evaluative information about others to evaluate ourselves．
B．We are interested in the news that arouses our personal concerns．
C．We tend to gain a sense of pride from judging others．
D．We are likely to learn lessons from others'mistakes．
59．According to the first experiment，which of the following shows self-promotion value？A
A．I've done better than Mary according to what Tom said about her．
B．I should behave myself in case of being gossiped about like Mary．
C．I have to learn from Mary according to what Tom said about her．
D．I have no comments on what Tom said about Mary．
60．What's the critical difference of the second experiment compared with the first one？D
A．The identities of the participants．
B．The number of the participants studied．
C．The time during which the experiment lasted．
D．The role-play technique used in the experiment．
61．What role does"negative gossip"play according to the researchers？C
A．A fear killer     B．A motivator  C．A protector    D．A subject provider．
3．Our environment isn't as green and beautiful as it should be．There are steel monsters blocking out the sun．blowing out dangerous smoke，and letting out poisonous chemicals into rivers，cars producing harmful waste gas，people throwing out waste in a wrong way and all other kinds of sources that ruin the planet．Facing current environmental problems，people need to do their best to save the earth．
You cart see many big garbage dustbins in the streets．They're not there for a show，but for you to drop your waste．We should realize that what we do does count．So next time you get that urge to throw gum or a chocolate package out of the car window，or"accidentally"drop as you walk down the street，ask yourself how much waste you've been contributing to the environment with that bad habit going on for years．
At home，the first thing we can do to protect the environment is avoid letting water run continuously and make sure that taps are not leaky（漏的），which would help greatly in scrimping．Another is to use energy-saving lights，and turn them off before you leave the rooms．It is not only energy-saving，but also cuts down electricity costs．
Recycling is a method to make items reusable．Many things you want to throw out can be made into new products through the reproducing process．Use your imagination to come up with ways on things that you can use again．
Pass the message of simple ways to save the environment on to kids．Starting with kids is a good way of teaching the message early in their lives，in the hope that they can carry it forward as they grow older．
With environmental protection awareness in mind，we can do what we can，for the results are to have a big effect on the planet．As long as we do our part，the world is one small step closer to being saved．

32．In the first paragraph the author uses"steel monsters"to refer toA．
A．big factories
B．high mountains
C．huge buildings
D．characters in fairy stories
33．From the fifth paragraph，we can know thatB．
A．wonderful life comes from environmental protection
B．protecting the environment should start from childhood
C．protecting the environment begins with small little things
D．protecting the environment benefits the country and the people
34．Which of the following is NOT true？D
A．To protect the environment may help you save some money．
B．Your bad habits for the environment are a harmful contribution．
C．The more people do their part，the greener the environment will be．
D．Selling what you don't want any more is not a kind of recycling．
35．The passage is mainly aboutB．
A．the use of garbage dustbins
B．how to save the environment
C．our present environmental problems
D．how to save water and electricity．
