14.Sometimes people call each other"scared cat",but have you ever thought about this expression?When a cat is frightened,its heart starts beating faster,its muscles get tense,and there are changes in the chemicals in its blood-stream.If the danger continues,this animal will do one of the two things.It will defend itself,or it will run away as fast as it can.
   Something like this also happens to people.When we are excited,angry,scared,or aroused by other emotions,our bodies go through many physical changes.Our hearts beat faster,and our muscles get tense.All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react.We,too,get ready to defend ourselves or run.Human beings,however,have a problem.If we give way to our feelings and let them take over,we can get into trouble.Have you ever said something in anger and regretted later?Have you ever shouted at a teacher or told somebody you were lonely and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut?It isn't always wise to express your feelings freely.
Does this mean that it's always smarter to hide our feelings?No!If you keep feelings like anger hidden away or bottled up inside,your body stays tense.Physical illnesses can develop,and you can feel disturbed badly inside.Itcan actually be bad for your health.Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don't just go away.It's as if you bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard.You might not be able to see them,but before long you'd smell them.And if you opened the cupboard,chances are you'd see little fruit flies hovering(盘旋) all over them.They'd be rotten.You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard.You can hide them and you can pretend they don't exist,but they'll still be around.And at last you'll have to deal with them,just like those bananas.

5.Would you eat a ready meal from the fridge rather than cook from scratch?Have you been doing internet shopping rather than going to the stores?What can't you be bothered to do?
A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of adults are so lazy they'd catch the lift rather than climb two flights of stairs.
Just over 2000people were quizzed by independent researchers at Nuffield Health,Britain's largest health charity.The results were astonishing.
About one in six people surveyed said if their remote control was broken,they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up.
More than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus.Worryingly,of the 654respondents with children,64% said they were often too tired to play with them.
This led the report to conclude that it's no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese (very fat) before they start school.
Dr Sarah Dauncey,medical director of Nuffield Health,said:"People need to get fitter,not just for their own sake,but for the sake of their families,friends and evidently their pets too.
"If we don't start to take control of this problem,a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most  rudimentary of tasks."
And Scotland's largest city,Glasgow,was shamed as the most inactive city in the UK,with 75% surveyed admitting they do not get enough exercise,followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton,both with 67%.
The results cause serious challenges for the National Health Service,where obesity-related illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40years and are costing billions of pounds every year.

61.What causes children in the UK to be obese?D
A.Eating ready meal             B.Watching TV
C.Doing Internet shopping       D.Being lazy
62.What can be inferred from the passage?D

C.Many people would not run to catch a bus in Britain.
D.People should be more active and take regular exercise to keep fit.
63.Which of the following is Not true according to the passage?A
A.One sixth of British people use remote control when watching TV.
B.People will benefit not only themselves but their families by getting fit.
C.Fatness can cause diseases such as heart disease and cancer.
D.More people get obesity-related illnesses now than 40years ago.

2.That cold January night,I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco.There I was walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater.With opening night only a week away,I was still learning my lines.I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time.As I walked,I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco.City life had become too much for me.
As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings,I felt very small and cold.I began running,both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers.Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.
About a block from my apartment,I heard a sound behind me.I turned quickly,half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun.The street was empty.All I saw was a shining streetlight.Still,the noise had made me nervous,so I started to run faster.Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been.It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.
Suddenly I wasn't cold or tired any more.I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise.Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes,my wallet was nowhere to be found.
Just as I was about to give up the search,I heard the garbage truck pull up to the sidewalk next to me.When a voice called from the inside,"Alisa Camacho?"I thought I was dreaming.How could this man know my name?The door opened,and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes."Is this what you're looking for?"he asked,holding up a small square shape.
It was nearly 3 a.m.by the time I got into bed.I wouldn't get much sleep that night,but I had got my wallet back.I also had got back some enjoyment of city life.I realized that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.

19.People are always afraid of making mistakes.But sometimes it is not bad to make mistakes,and here is why.
  First of all,mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying n ew things.It's always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing.If you never try new things,how can you improve?How can you create?The simple answer is,"You can't."Look around you.Everything you see is the result of someone trying new things.
  Another good thing about mistakes is this:when you are making mistakes,you are learning.Consider this:Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb.When he was asked how he felt after having failed so many times,he claimed that he hadn't failed 10,000 times,but had learned 10,000 things that didn't work.
  Finally,when you make a mistake,you are much closer to your goal.Why?Because you have said what you should say,and you have done what you should do.Every time you make a mistake,you are closer to your goal.But it doesn't mean that you can make mistakes without thinking.Instead,when you try new things,you have to think them over so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes.
  As the old saying goes,"If you are not making mistakes,you are not trying hard enough."So go bravely and make mistakes.And learn.And grow.And succeed.

6.We Chinese are not big huggers.A handshake or a pat on the shoulder is enough to convey our friendship or affection to one another.So when our newly-acquainted Western friends reach out to give us a hug,some of us feel awkward.Many questions go through our head.Where should I put my arms?What distance should I maintain?Should our chests touch?
But it isn't just people from cultures that are conservative in expressing physical contact who find hugging confusing.Hugs can cause discomfort or even distress in people who value their personal space.
In a recent article for The Wall Street Journal,US psychologist Peggy Drexler said that although the US remains a"medium touch"culture,Americans do seem to be hugging more.From politicians to celebrities,hugs are given to friends,strangers and enemies alike,whether they are willing or not;and the public has been quick to pick up the practice.
Public figures know that nothing expresses fellowship or affection like a good hug.US First Lady Michelle Obama has put her arms around icy foreign leaders like Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev and the Queen of England.Pop superstar Lady Gaga is also a hug enthusiast,telling her fans that"I will always,always,try my very best to wrap my arms around you when I meet you."
But not all are grateful to be hugged,even by the most influential and famous.To them,any hug is offensive if it's not sincere.Amanda Hess,writing for US magazine Slate,says public figures should stop imposing hugs on everyone they meet.For them,a hug is rarely a gesture of sincere fellowship,or affection.It's all part of a show.

28.Chinese people don't enjoy hugs becauseA.
A.they are conservative in physical touch
B.they don't know how to hug correctly
C.they think a handshake is the best way to convey friendship
D.they feel awkward to communicate with westerners
29.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined phrase"pick up the practice"?B
A.Enjoy the medium touch culture.      B.Follow the trend.
C.Give hugs to enemies.                D.Resist physical touch.
30.Public figures like giving hugs toD.
A.thank public people                  B.show sincere friendship
C.express enthusiasm                   D.win fellowship or affection
31.What can we learn from the last paragraph?D
A.People are grateful to hugs of any kind    B.A hug is a gesture of friendship.
C.A famous person's hug is usually sincere  D.An insincere hug is a part of show.
