1.Be Your Own Best Friend
Why would you want to become your own best friend?There are a number of benefits of creating your own support system from within rather than relying on your partner,friends or family to be there for you when you're suffering.We all have it in us to give ourselves what we need,without seeking it from outside.(36)GHere's how to become your own best friend and help yourself.
1.Be nice to yourself
The first step in becoming a friend to yourself is to treat yourself like you would treat a friend.(37)EStart by accepting your good qualities,talents and abilities and begin to appreciate yourself.
2.Imagine how you would support a friend in the same situation
Think about a loved one,a friend,a family member,or someone dear to you and imagine that they are in the same situation you are facing.(38)FThen consider how to best offer help and advice to them.Allow yourself to feel supported,and give yourself what you need.
Write down the words that you would say to your greatest friend and then say them gently to yourself.
3.(39)A
Following the theme of considering how you would help a dear friend,you need to start taking your own advice and putting your own needs first.Do you need a day off from work?(40)CWhatever it is that you need,allow yourself to put it at the top of the list rather than the bottom(底部).
Use these methods to become your own best friend and start being there for yourself!
 
A.Respect your needs.
B.Believe in yourself.
C.A long hot bath?
D.Help them first and then they will help you.
E.That means that you need to stop being doubtful of yourself.
F.Think about how they're struggling,suffering with this problem.
G.Isn't it far better to know how to support yourself in times of need?

分析 本文就如何做你自己最好的朋友给出了三条建议和小技巧.

解答 36-40  GEFAC
36.G  考查文章的结构和行文逻辑.该句位于文章总领段落(第一段),根据语境可知,该空应填"Isn't it far better to know how to support yourself in times of need?"--该反问句实则说明上文提到的我们内部有自我支持的体系,再个确定我们可以在需要的时候自我支持,这就引出了下句"Here's how to become your own best friend."即该题正确答案为G.
37.E  考查文章的结构和行文逻辑.该句在文章"Be nice to yourself"(对自己好点儿)部分,根据下句"开始欣赏自己"可推知,该句应该对应为"停止怀疑自己",故该题正确答案为E.
38.F 考查文章的结构和行文逻辑.该句在文章"Imagine how you would support a friend in the same situation"(想象一下你将会如何支持、帮助处于相同处境的朋友)部分,该空前句为想象你的爱人、朋友、或是家人处于你现在的处境.该空的后句为接着考虑如何最好地给他们提供帮助和建议.那么在这已给的两个动作中,只能加入的就是"Think about how they're struggling,suffering with this problem."(想象他们的感受),故该题正确答案为F.
39.A考查文章的结构和行文逻辑.该空为文章第三个建议部分的概括,通读该部分,可知作者所要提出的建议为"you need to start taking your own advice and putting your own needs first.","Whatever it is that you need,allow yourself to put it at the top of the list rather than the bottom."即你要尊重你自己的需要.故该题正确答案为A.
40.C考查文章的结构和行文逻辑.该空所在部分讲述的是要尊重你自己的选择.前句讲到假设的你所需要的一种情况:你需要休假一天吗?而后句讲到无论你需要的什么,你都要把这种需要放在首要的位置.故该空应为和前句所并列的问句--你需要洗个热水澡吗?故该题正确答案为C.

点评 本文是一篇选句填空阅读,主要考查上下文联系能力及文章内容理解能力,做题时,应注意仔细阅读文章内容,结合上下文内容,并理解所给选项含义,从而选出正确答案,切忌胡乱猜测,一定要做到有理有据.

11.In agrarian(农业的),pre-industrial Europe,"you'd want to wake up early,start working with the sunrise,have a break to have the largest meal,and then you'd go back to work,"says Ken Albala,a professor of history at the University of the Pacific."Later,at 5or 6,you'd have a smaller supper."
This comfortable cycle,in which the rhythms of the day helped shape the rhythms of the meals,gave rise to the custom of the large midday meal,eaten with the extended family."Meals are the foundation of the family,"says Carole Couniban,a professor at Millersville University in Pennsylvania,"so there was a very important interconnection between eating together and strengthening family ties."
Since industrialization,maintaining such a slow cultural metabolism has been much harder,with the long midday meal shrinking to whatever could be stuffed into a lunch bucket or bought at a food stand.Certainly,there were benefits.Modern techniques for producing and shipping food led to greater variety and quantity,including a tremendous increase in the amount of animal protein and dairy products available,making us more energetic than our ancestors.
Yet plenty has been lost too,even in cultures that still live to eat.Take Italy.It's no secret that the Mediterranean diet is healthy,but it was also a joy to prepare and eat.Italians,says Counihan,traditionally began the day with a small meal.The big meal came at around 1p.m.In between the midday meal and a late,smaller dinner came a small snack.Today,when time zones have less and less meaning,there is little tolerance for offices'closing for lunch,and worsening traffic in cities means workers can't make it home and back fast enough anyway.So the formerly small supper after sundown becomes the big meal of the day,the only one at which the family has a chance to get together."The evening meal carries the full burden that used to be spread over two meals,"says Counihan.

24.What does Professor Carole Counihan say about pre-industrial European families eating meals together?B
A.It was helpful to maintaining a nation's tradition.
B.It brought family members closer to each other.
C.It was characteristic of the agrarian culture.
D.It enabled families to save a lot of money.
25.What does"cultural metabolism"(Line 1,Para.3)refer to?D
A.Evolutionary adaptation.
B.Changes in lifestyle.
C.Social progress.
D.Pace of life.
26.What does the author think of the food people eat today?B
A.Its quality is usually guaranteed.
B.It is varied,abundant and nutritious.
C.It is more costly than what our ancestors ate.
D.Its production depends too much on technology.
27.What does the author say about Italians of the old days?A
A.They enjoyed cooking as well as eating.
B.They ate a big dinner late in the evening.
C.They ate three meals regularly every day.
D.They were expert at cooking meals.
12.The Link between Fitness and Career Success
It's no mystery to successful people that there is direct link between sound health & fitness and success in their career and personal lives.Successful persons likely show up at the health club consistently,work with a personal trainer,or get up a few minutes early for a heart elevating(增进的) jog.Successful people like to jump start their day with plenty of energy and the feel-good endorphins(内啡肽) that exercise offers.Recent studies prove the direct link between fitness and success.
Better ability to focus,improved confidence and enhanced(增强的) ability to follow through were directly attributed(归属于) to improved fitness levels according to a 2007University of Georgia study.Further,a leading manager search company surveyed more than 1,300managers.When asked to describe their viewpoints of weight and work,75% said good physical fitness is"important for career success at the manager level."17%,by contrast,said staying in shape is"a nice goal,but secondary(次要的) to good fitness."
The CEO of that manager search firm said,"Good physical fitness is important to success as a manager in today's work world.''When asked about obesity(肥胖),75% of managers said that being overweight is a"serious career impediment(妨碍)".Do these responses reflect our obsession with weight loss and mirror the constant reports of skinny(极瘦的) images in popular culture?Probably not.Rather,there is a very strong link between improved fitness and increased productivity,enhanced ability to solve problems,superior energy,not to mention reduced stress and tiredness,all leading to better job performance.It goes well beyond looking good.Fit people tend to have better eating habits and miss fewer days at work due to a higher resistance(抵抗) to illness.And with competition continually increasing in every industry,companies are now rewarding employees and managers who miss less work and produce more.
A study by Jim McKenna,a British researcher,showed that after exercising participants returned to work more tolerant of themselves and more forgiving of their colleagues.The study concluded that"work performance was consistently higher,time management skills improved,as did mental sharpness".
All it takes is investing 3-4sessions a week,30-45minutes each,to experience these benefits.Combine strength training and cardiovascular(心血管的) exercise,along with sound nutrition to speed up your mental sharpness,enhance your productivity,improve your mood and better manage stress.As your fitness level increases,likely your position on the ladder of success will too!

64.Successful people are likely toD.
A.have higher resistance to illness        B.get more energy and endorphins
C.lose weight more easily               D.care more about their fitness
65.What does the underlined word"obsession"in Paragraph 4mean?A
A.craze(狂热).B.training.C.anger.D.imagination.
66.According to the study by the manager search company,C.
A.there is no link between fitness and success
B.good physical fitness is critical for career success
C.mental sharpness,productivity and mood can be improved
D.people tend to be more tolerant and forgiving after exercising.
