12.If you feel anxious socializing with people,doing good deeds may help you relax.
Scientists have found that keeping busy with acts of kindness can help people mix more easily with strangers instead of trying to avoid them.Their study could help people who feel fearful in the company of others feel better in social situations such as parties,for example.
(36)A,people who suffer from social anxiety miss out on the support gained from having relationships with others and typically have fewer friends.
Canadian researchers from Simon Fraser University and the University of British Columbia in Canada studied 155students who said they experience high level of social anxiety.
(37)C.One group performed good deeds,such as voluntarily washing up friends'dishes or donating to charity.(38)E,while the third group carried on with life as normal.
(39)G.And the new study showed that participants in the group who actively led a helping hand also experienced a reduction in their desire to avoid social situations.
(40)F.
"Using this technique may work especially well early on while participants expect positive reactions from others in response to their kindness,"said researchers.

A.By avoiding social situations
B.You might have been there before
C.They were randomly divided into three groups.
D.But researchers believe that good deeds can lead to more good deeds.
E.Another was exposed to good deeds but didn't perform any themselves
F.Researchers say that good deeds help with feelings of possible anxiety and   pain.
G.Performing acts of kindness to help others is already known to increase happiness.

分析 文章大意:本文主要关于如何应对社交焦虑症的话题.科学家发现忙于行善可以帮助人们更加容易地和陌生人相处.

解答 36.A 属于辑推理题.根据第三段下一句:"people who suffer from social anxiety miss out on the support gained from having relationships with others and typically have fewer friends."人们会遭受交际困扰,从而错过很多可以通过人际交往尤其是与朋友的交往中获得的支持,可知前面一句应为选项A.通过逃避社交场所是正确的,所以选择A选项.
37.C  事实细节题.根据第五段:"   37  .One group performed good deeds,such as voluntarily washing up friends'dishes or donating to charity.  38  ,while the third group carried on with life as normal."one group…the third group…可知下面介绍的是几个分组,所以选项C,他们被随机分为三个组是正确的,所以选择C选项.
38.E 事实细节题.根据第五段:"   37  .One group performed good deeds,such as voluntarily washing up friends'dishes or donating to charity.  38  ,while the third group carried on with life as normal."one group…the third group…可知下面介绍的是几个分组,因为已经有第一、第三组了,而且第一组用的是one…对应下一组是the other,one…The other…一个,另一个是固定用法,所以选项E是正确的,所以选择E选项.
39.G 逻辑推理题.根据第六段:"____39______.And the new study showed that participants in the group who actively led a helping hand also experienced a reduction in their desire to avoid social situations."下一句说的是参与实验的人员还能减少躲避社交场所的欲望,所以是一个进一步说明,前面空缺处应该也是表示帮助别人给受试者带来的好处,可知选项G是符合题意的,所以选择G选项.
40.F 逻辑推理题.根据第六段和第八段,可知作者是要进一步说明good deeds做好事对减少社交焦虑的好处,可知选项F是符合题意的,所以选择F选项.

点评 在阅读过程中,重要要关注文章的首段与末段.尤其是文章的这两段的末尾句,因为"开门见山"与"末尾点题"的写作方式是最为常见的,首段的末句一般是全文的主题所在,说明本文将探讨哪些内容,并简要指出文章的写作思路,有时甚至会以提纲的形式进行呈现.

7.It's acknowledged that there are two biggest wealth in life:your talent and your time.Talent increases and time decreases.Our life,in a way,is trading time with talents.Wasting time means our time decreases while our talents do not increase.(36)C
•Get to know how you use your usual time and make improvements
Take a week and write down what you do every 30minutes every day and make it into categories.After a week's recording,you'll see which part consumes most of the time.(37)B  And you could come up with a revised timetable for your next week.
•Use fragment(碎片) times and"dead times"
By time recording,you'll be amazed how much time you've wasted in waiting for the bus,queuing,walking,etc.You could really put that time to better use.(38)E Use your fragment times for insignificant matters so that you could have more time for things that really matter.
•(39)D
There're always things to be done every day,and the thing we could do is to identify whether it's urgent or important.The things you need to do for the day rest only on the urgent as well as important things.Don't become slaves to urgent but unimportant things.
••Use the 20%--80% principle
At the most efficient time,20% of time could generate 80% of efficiency and on the contrary,at the least efficient time,80% of the time could only generate 20% of efficiency.We should be doing important works at the most efficient time.That time period differs from person to person,(40)F Yet,generally speaking,it's round 10in the morning and 3in the afternoon.
After being familiar with those tips,the next thing would be to implement and hold on to it.Do the right thing at the right time,and we shall make our time to its fullest.
A.Finish as many tasks as possible.
B.Make an analysis about the ways you could improve your efficiency.
C.That is why we shall save every second and make it count.
D.First things first.
E.Like memorizing English words or making necessary phone calls.
F.Depending on your mentality and physical condition.
G.But everyone has a peak effect time.
