7.Dublin has the benefit of being a home to unequaled beaches.They can be especially attractive during the summer season.Experience this scenery for yourself and see what these beaches have to offer you.
Finding yourself at Dollymont makes you a fortunate tourist especially if you find beaches irresistible. Here you can swim away your worries through the Dollymont Blue Flag Beach.The beach provides a wonderful view which is perfect for some relaxing moments.Its shoreline is well recommended for a few quiet and unworried walks along the beach.
For some beach adventure,you can drive your way down the M50and M 1motorways to Donabate. This village in North County Dublin offers an attractive Blue Flag beach which is perfect for your swimming addictions.Lifeguards are on call during bathing period.The water is as overpowering as the surrounding.
For a double purpose beach,check out Killiney.This beach is a top off destination for a swimming adventure and it is equally grand for relaxing walks.The shoreline is covered with pebbles and rocks.This may seem averred with ordinary stony beach for some but for those who have strong interest in geological processes,Killiney is a best spot to discover part of.Dublin's history and Killiney's formation.
Another accessible Blue Flag Beach lies on Malahide in Fingal.You can enjoy the distinctive attraction of the water while still getting yourself amazed with the wonderful sights around Malahide.Beach is sandy and holds a harbor designed for pleasure boats at the Northern end.
For a bit of challenge and thrill,consider a swim at Seapoint Beach in Dun Laoghaire Rathdown.You can have the pleasure of an exciting surf adventure here apart from the usual swimming activity.This is often visited by tourists due to its various appeals:swimming on the north part of the beach while surfing,boating and jet skiing at the south.
Need to beat the heat off your summer vacation?There is nothing as satisfying as a visit to some of these outstanding beaches.

2.A.Keep your body healthy
B.Cultivate supportive relationships
C.Take care of yourself
D.Challenge negative thinking
E.Know when to get additional help
F.Adopt healthy habits
Tips for dealing with depression
76.B
Getting the support you need plays a big role in lifting the fog of depression and keeping it away.On your own,it can be difficult to maintain perspective and sustain the effort required to beat depression.But the very nature of depression makes it difficult to reach out for help.However,isolation and loneliness make depression even worse,so maintaining your close relationships and social activities are important.
77.D
Depression puts a negative spin on everything,including the way you see yourself,the situations you encounter,and your expectations for the future.But you can't break out of this pessimistic mind frame by"just thinking positive."Happy thoughts or wishful thinking won't cut it.Rather,the trick is to replace negative thoughts with more balanced thoughts.
78.C
In order to overcome depression,you have to take care of yourself.This includes following a healthy lifestyle,learning to manage stress,setting limits on what you're able to do,adopting healthy habits,and scheduling fun activities into your day.
79.A
When you're depressed,exercising may be the last thing you feel like doing.But exercise is a powerful tool for dealing with depression.In fact,studies show that regular exercise can be as effective as antidepressant medication at increasing energy levels and decreasing feelings of fatigue.Scientists haven't figured out exactly why exercise is such a potent antidepressant,but evidence suggests that physical activity triggers new cell growth in the brain,increases mood-enhancing neurotransmitters and endorphins,reduces stress,and relieves muscle tension-all things that can have a positive effect on depression.
80.E
If you find your depression getting worse and worse,seek professional help.Needing more help doesn't mean you're weak.Sometimes the negative thinking in depression can make you feel like you're a lost cause,but depression can be treated and you can feel better!
12.The way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled,pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness.If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness.But in fact,the opposite is true:more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain.
As a result,many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness.They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage,raising children,professional achievement,religious commitment(承担的义务),self-improvement.
Ask a bachelor(单身汉) why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying.If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment.For commitment is in fact quite painful.The single life is filled with fun,adventure,excitement.Marriage has such moments,but they are not its most distinguishing features.
Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole night's sleep or a three-day vacation.I don't know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children.But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.
Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations.It liberates time:now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness.It liberates money:buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless.And it liberates us from envy:we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.

36.According to the author,a bachelor resists marriage chiefly becauseA.
A.he is reluctant to take on family responsibilities
B.he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains single
C.he finds more fun in dating than in marriage
D.he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement
37.Raising children,in the author's opinion isC.
A.a moral duty
B.a thankless job
C.a rewarding task
D.a source of inevitable pain
38.From the last paragraph,we learn that envy sometimes stems fromB.
A.hatred
B.misunderstanding
C.prejudice
D.ignorance
39.To understand what true happiness is one mustD.
A.have as much fun as possible during one's lifetime
B.make every effort to liberate oneself from pain
C.put up with pain under all circumstances
D.be able to distinguish happiness from fun
40.What is the author trying to tell us?A
A.Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain.
B.One must know how to attain happiness.
C.It is important to make commitments.
D.It is pain that leads to happiness.

"Stop troubling him!Can't you see he's only trying to get home?"she interfered."He doesn't have any money!"the driver shouted."Well,that's no(49)Cto throw him off the bus,"she insisted.
Then she said,"How much is his fare?"The bus conductor mumbled the amount."Fine,"said the woman.She(50)Dinside her blouse,took out her(51)Dmoney,and handed the fares to the bus conductor."Here's his fare and mine.Just stop giving him a hard time."
All eyes turned(52)Bthe woman,who,just minutes before,had been crying over the money she'd lost."It's only money,"she shrugged.

16.Tips for cooking on a Tight Schedule
From my experience,there are three main reasons why people don't cook more often:ability,money and time.(36)BMoney is a topic I'll save for another day.So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen.Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:
1.Think ahead.The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I'm already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat.So think about of the coming week.When will you have time to cook?Do you have the right materials ready?(37)G2.Make your time worth it.When you do find time to cook a meal,make the most of it and save yourself time later on.Are you making one loaf of bread?(38)CIt takes around the same amount of time to make more of something.So save yourself the effort for a future meal.
3.(39)AThis may surprise you,but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation.It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule.The more you learn and the more you try,the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.
Hopefully that gives you a good start.(40)Fand don't let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!

A.Try new things.
B.Ability is easily improved.
C.Make three or four instead.
D.Understand your food better.
E.Cooking is a burden for many people.
F.Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.
G.A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.
