14．There is a kind of guys you'd rather hate and Kevin is among them．He is always in a good mood and always has something （41）C to say．When asked how he was doing，he would reply，"If I were any better，I'd be twins!"He was a natural （42）D．
One day I asked him how he did it．Kevin replied，"Each morning I say to myself，‘Kevin，you have two choices today．You can choose to be in a good mood or in a bad mood．'I choose to be in a good mood．Each time something bad （43）A，I can choose to be a （an）（44）B or to learn from it．I choose to learn from it．"
"It isn't that （45）D．"I protested．
"Yes it is，"Kevin said．"Life is all about（46）A．You choose how you （47）B to situations．You choose to be in a good mood or a bad mood．The（48）A line is：You're your choice how you live life．"
Several years later，Kevin was （49）D in a serious accident，（50）Boff 60feet from a communication tower．I saw him when he was （51）C from the hospital with rods placed in his back．I asked him what had （52）B his mind as the accident took place．"It was the （53）D of my soon-to-born daughter，"Kevin replied．"Then，I remembered I had two choices：I could choose to live or I could choose to die．I chose to live．"
"Weren't you scared？"
"The doctors and nurses were great．They kept telling me I was going to be （54）A．But when they （55）D me into the operation room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses，I got （56）C scared．In their eyes，l read‘He's a（57）B man．'I knew I needed to take action．When one nurse asked me shouting if I was （58）A to anything and waited for my reply，I took a deep breath and yelled，‘Gravity．'
Over their laughter，I told them，‘I'm choosing to live．Operate on me as if I am alive，not dead．'"
Kevin lived．I learned from him that every day we have a choice to live （59）D．Attitude is （60）C．

5．Saving the Planet with Earth-Friendly Bamboo Products
Jackie Heinricher's love affair with bamboo started in her backyard．"As a child，I remember playing among the golden bamboo my dad had planted，and when there was a slight wind，the bamboos sounded really musical．"
A fisheries biologist，Heinricher，47，planned to work in the salmon industry in Seattle，where she lived with her husband，Guy Thornburgh，but she found it too competitive．Then her garden gave her the idea for a business：She'd planted 20bamboo forests on their seven-acre farm．
Heinricher started Boo-Shoot Gardens in 1998．She realized early on what is just now beginning to be known to the rest of the world．It can be used to make fishing poles，skateboards，buildings，furniture，floors，and even clothing．An added bonus：Bamboo absorbs four times as much carbon dioxide as a group of hardwood trees and releases 35percent more oxygen．
First she had to find a way to mass-produce the plants-a tough task，since bamboo flowers create seed only once every 50to 100years．And dividing a bamboo plant frequently kills it．
Heinricher appealed to Randy Burr，a tissue culture expert，to help her．"People kept telling us we'd never figure it out，"says Heinricher．"Others had worked on it for 27years!I believed in what we were doing，though，so I just kept going．"
She was right to feel a sense of urgency．Bamboo forests are being rapidly used up，and a United Nations report showed that even though bamboo is highly   renewable，as many as half of the world's species are threatened with dying out．Heinricher knew that bamboo could make a significant impact on carbon emissions （排放） and world economies，but only if huge numbers could be produced．And that's just what she and Burr figured out after nine years of experiments-a way to grow millions of plants．By placing cuttings in test tubes with salts，vitamins，plant hormones，and seaweed gel，they got the plants to grow and then raised them in soil in greenhouses．
Not long after it，Burr's lab hit financial difficulties．Heinricher had no experience running a tissue culture operation，but she wasn't prepared to quit．So she bought the lab．
Today Heinricher heads up a profitable multimillion-dollar company，working on species from all over the world and selling them to wholesalers．"If you want to farm bamboo，it's hard to do without the young plants，and that's what we have，"she says proudly．

56．What was the main problem with planting bamboo widely？A
A．They didn't have enough young bamboo．
B．They were short of money and experience．
C．They didn't have a big enough farm to do it．
D．They were not understood by other people．
57．What does Heinricher think of bamboo？C
A．Renewable and acceptable       B．Productive and flexible．
C．Useful and earth-friendly．    D．Strong and profitable．
58．The underlined word"renewable"in Paragraph 6probably means"A"．
A．able to be replaced naturally                B．able to be raised difficultly
C．able to be shaped easily                     D．able to be recycled conveniently
59．What do you learn from the passage？B
A．Heinricher's love for bamboo led to her experiments in the lab．
B．Heinricher's determination helped her to succeed in her work．
C．Heinricher struggled to prevent bamboo from disappearing．
D．Heinricher finally succeeded in realizing her childhood dream．
2．The English Mid-exam was quite difficult，but she tried to gain the top grade in her class．tried改为managed．
9．The health-care economy is filled with unusual and even unique economic relationships．One of the least understood involves the peculiar roles of producer or"provider"and purchaser or"consumer"in the typical doctor-patient relationship．In most sectors of the economy，it is the seller who attempts to attract a potential buyer with various appealing factors of price，quality，and use，and it is the buyer who makes the decision．Such condition，however，is not common in most of the health-care industry．
In the health-care industry，the doctor-patient relationship is the mirror image of the ordinary relationship between producer and consumer．Once an individual has chosen to see a physician-and even then there may be no real choice-it is the physician who usually makes all significant purchasing decisions：whether the patient should return"next Wednesday"，whether X-rays are needed，whether drugs should be prescribed，etc．It is rare that a patient will challenge such professional decisions or raise in advance questions about price，especially when the disease is regarded as serious．
This is particularly significant in relation to hospital care．The physician must certify the need for hospitalization，determine what procedures will be performed，and announce when the patient may be discharged．The patient may be consulted about some of the decisions，but in general it is the doctor's judgments that are fi nal．Little wonder then that in the eye of the hospital it is the physician who is the real"consumer"．As a consequence，the med ical staff represents the"power center"in hospital policy and decision-making，not the administration．
Although usually there are in this situation four identifiable participants-the physician，the hospital，the patient，and the payer （generally an insurance carrier or government）-the physician makes the essential decisions for all of them．The hospital becomes an extension of the physician； the payer generally meets most of the bills generated by the physician/hospital，and for the most part the patient plays a passive role．We estimate that about 75-80 percent of health-care choices are determined by physicians，not patients．For this reason，the economy directed at patients or the general is relatively ineffective．
 
28．The author's prim ary purpose in writing this passage is toD．
A．urge hospitals to reclaim their decision-making authority
B．inform potential patients of their health-care rights
C．criticize doctors for exercising too much control over patients
D．analyze some important economic factors in health-care
29．It can be inferred that doctors are able to determine hospital policies becauseB．
A．most of patient's bills are paid by his health insurance
B．it is doctors who generate income for the hospital
C．some patients might refuse to take their physician's advice
D．a doctor is ultimately responsible for a patient's health
30．According to the author，when a doctor tells a patient to"return next Wednesday"，the doctor is in factC．
A．advising the patient to seek a second opinion
B．warning the patient that a hospital stay might be necessary
C．instructing the patient to buy more medical services
D．admitting that the first visit was ineffective
31．The author is most probably leading up toA．
A．a proposal to control medical costs
B．a study of lawsuits against doctors for malpractice
C．an analysis of the cause of inflation （通货膨胀） in the US
D．a discussion of a new medical treatment．

6．Everyone wants to keep healthy．Is there anything more important than health？I don't think so．"Health is the greatest wealth，"wise people say，"You can't be good at your studies or work well when you are ill．"
If you have a headache，toothache，backache，earache or bad pain in the stomach，if you have a bad cough，if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold，or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure，I think you should go to see a doctor．
The doctor will test your blood pressure，examine your throat，feel your pulse，take your temperature，sound your heart and lungs，test your eyes，check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed．After that he will advise some treatment or some medicine．The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice．
Speaking of doctor's advice，I can't help telling you a funny story．
An old gentleman came to see the doctor．The man was very ill．He told the doctor about his weakness，memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs．The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease．
He then told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest．He also advised him to eat some meat，drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks．In other words，the doctor advised him to follow the rule--Eat at pleasure，drink with measure and enjoy life as it is．The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again，he shouldn't smoke more than one cigarette a day．
A month later the gentleman came back into the doctor's office．He looked cheerful and happy．He thanked the doctor and said that  he had never felt a healthier man．．
"But you know，doctor，"he said，"it's not easy to begin smoking at my age．"
81．The writer thinks thatD．
A．nothing is more important than money     
B．work is as important as studies
C．medicine is more important than pleasure  
D．health is more important than wealth
82．The doctor usually tells his patient what to doB．
A．without examining the patient
B．after he has examined the patient
C．if the patient doesn't take medicine
D．unless the patient feels pain

A．he was feeling better than ever          
B．he wasn't a healthy man
C．he was feeling worse than before        
D．he would be well again
84．From the last sentence of the passage，we learn the gentleman manC before the doctor told him not to smoke more than one cigarette a day．
A．was a heavy smoker                  
B．didn't smoke too much

C．The gentleman man thanked the doctor．
D．The gentleman man didn't follow the doctor's advice．
3．Living near the beach may come with an extra perk （利益）：better health．A new study analyzed information from more than 48million people in England and found that the nearer they lived to the coast，the more likely people were to report good health within the past year．
Living near the coast may be associated with better health because the seaside environment reduces stress，the researchers said．They pointed to another British study that found that people who took trips to the coast experienced more feelings of calmness and relaxation than those who visited urban parks or the countryside．
The difference from living near the coast was relatively small．But a small effect，when applied to an entire population can have a substantial impact on public health，said study researcher Ben Wheeler of Peninsula College of Medicine and Dentistry in Exeter，England．
However，it's too soon to advise people to hit the beach to improve health，Wheeler said．The study only found an association，not a cause-effect link，and it's possible that other factors could explain the results．For instance，it could be that people who are wealthier，and therefore healthier，are more able to move to desired locations such as the coast，Wheeler said，a phenomenon known as the migrant effect．But the study did find that the association between coastal living and better health was strongest for those living in the poorest areas，which perhaps indicates that wealth cannot explain the results，Wheeler said．
Because the study looked at only England-an island country in which everyone lives within 72miles of the coast-it's not clear whether the findings would apply to other populations．Far from England，a health expert not involved in the study said that while the British research certainly doesn't prove that people's health and the place they live are linked，it's possible that proximity to the seas does something for our bodies．
If future studies confirm the results，the next step would be to find out it is what coastal environments that can benefit health．Wheeler said it may then be possible to bring those benefits to people living in other areas，through virtual environments，for instance．

28．We can conclude from the passage thatB．
A．people are encouraged to move to the coast
B．people living near the sea may be healthier
C．people pay increasingly attention to health
D．people are worried about residential environment
29．According to the researchers，living near the seaC．
A．doesn't nearly affect the British population
B．can cure some difficult diseases in a way
C．can help get over one's stress
D．means freeing from sadness or troubles
30．What Ben Wheeler said meansD．
A．the British public health is decreasing
B．concrete evidence favors life near the sea
C．wealthier people are likely to be healthier
D．exact reasons are proposed for further research
31．What does the underlined word"proximity"in the passage mean？A．
A．being close
B．being distant
C．being similar

19．According to researchers，money can buy happiness，but only if you spend it on someone else．
Spending as little as 5 a day on someone else could significantly bring you happiness，the team at the University of British Columbia and Harvard Business School found．Their experiments  on more than 630 Americans showed they were measurably（适度地）happier when they  spent money on others---even if they thought spending the money on themselves would make them happier．"We wanted to test our theory that how peoplespend their money is at least asi mportant as how much money they earn，"said Elizabeth Dunn，a psychologist at the University of British Columbia．They asked their 600 volunteers first to rate their general happiness，report their annual income and detail their monthly spending including bills，gifts for themselves，giftsfor others and donations to charity（慈善机构）．"Regardless of  how much income each person made，those who spent money on others reported greater happiness，while those who spent more on themselves did not，"Dunn said in a statement．Dunn's team also surveyed（调查）16 employees at acompany in Boston before and after they received an annual profit-sharingbonus（奖金）of between3，000 and 8，000．"Employeeswho devoted more of their bonus to pro-social（有益社会的）spending experienced greater happiness after receiving the bonus，and the manner in which they spent that bonus was a more important predictor（预示）oftheir happiness than the size of the bonus itself，"they wrote in their report，published in the journal Science．They gave  their volunteers 5 or20 and half got clear instructions on how to spend it．Those who spentthe money on someone or something else reported feeling happier about it．"These findings suggest that veryminor alterations（改动）in spending allocations（分配）---as little as $5---may be enough to produce real gains in happiness on a given day，"Dunn said．
