20.While IQ (Intelligence Quotient) tells you how smart you are.EQ (Emotional Quotient) tells you how well you use your smartness.Professor Salovery,the psychologist who created the term,EQ,says that it is IQ that gets you hired but it is EQ that gets you promoted.
Supported by his research,he suggested that when predicting future successes,a person's brainpower,as measured by IQ tests,might actually matter less than a person's character,or EQ.Professor Salovery may be correct.For example,have you ever wondered why some of the best and smartest students in your class end up failing exams?Perhaps it is because of their EQ.People often make the mistake of thinking that EQ is the opposite of IQ.It is not.Although it is hoped that people have both high EQs and IQs,there is little doubt that those with low EQs have a hard time surviving in life.
For a long time,researchers discussed if a person's IQ could be raised.The geneticists said no,while the social scientists said yes.Furthermore,the social scientists said that it was possible to improve a person's EQ,particularly in terms of"people skills",such as understanding and communication.
Recently,a professor released the findings of a study on senior high school students.When some normal students were introduced to some disabled students,they found that afterwards they were more willing to help people in difficulties.At the same time,there was a marked change in the disabled students'attitudes.They became more positive about their disabilities and were more eager to try new things.People with high EQs often have positive attitudes towards life and are open to different ideas,so they tend to be more creative in their thinking.Please remember that having a high IQ is helpful but having a high EQ might even be more helpful.

33.According to Professor Salovery,what factor matters the most in predicting whether a person will be successful or not?B
A.How a person tests his/her brainpower.
B.A person's character.
C.How smart a person is.
D.A person's IQ.
34.What did the professor find from his study of normal students being introduced to some disabled children?C
A.Students with disabilities were not open in trying new things.
B.There was no change in the normal students.
C.The disabled students became more positive and more eager to try new things.
D.The disabled students were more willing to help others.
35.Which of the following would be the best title of this passage?A
A.IQ,EQ and success.
B.A person's brainpower.
C.IQ and a person's character.
D.A person's IQ and EQ.
19.Nail-biting(咬指甲) is one of the most common annoying habits in children.(36)A But you needn't worry too much and as soon as you realize what's causing nail-biting,you can help your child overcome and stop it.So,here's what you can do about it.
(37)B    In some cases,children won't even realize they are biting their nails,let alone know why they are doing it.So make sure you have a conversation with your child (if he/she is old enough)and make him/her realize he/she is doing it and try to figure out why it's happening.
(38)D   It's important to agree on the level of your involvement.If he/she wants help,create a secret reminder that will make him/her stop without embarrassing him/her.
Give alternatives (替代物).(39)GDepending on the age of the child,there are several things that you can offer such as a small ball,Play-Doh games,or any kind of other small toys.
Use bitter solutions(溶液).Forcing a child to keep this solution on his/her fingers may feel like a punishment.(40)F Everything else will only lead to embarrassment and discouragement.Furthermore,some of these solutions contain pepper which burns if it enters a child's mouth or eyes.But if you have an adolescent child who wants to quit biting his/her nails,you may suggest and try out this solution.

A.It's also likely to continue as the child grows up.
B.Help the child become aware of the habit.
C.You should also consider asking for professional help.
D.Make an agreement on how you're going to stop it together.
E.The best thing children can do is communicate with their parents.
F.The child needs to go through the process painlessly and in agreement with you.
G.That will keep his/her hands occupied when he/she is likely to bite his/her nails.
17.Once upon a time a teacher and his student lay down under a big tree near the big grass area.Then(41)C  the student asked the teacher,"Teacher,I'm puzzled.How do we(42)D  our soul mate(知己)?Could you please(43)B  me?"

The student said OK and then he walked straight(49)Cto the grassy field.A few minutes later,the student came back(50)B.When the teacher asked the(51)C,the student said,"On my journey,I found quite a(52)B   beautiful blades of grass,but I(53)A   that I would find a better one,so I didn't pick it.(54)D   I didn't realize that I was at the(55)A  of the field,and I hadn't picked any because you told me not to go back,so I didn't go back."Hearing this,the teacher said,"That's(56)D   will happen in real life".
What is the(57)D of this story?In the story,grass is the people around you;the beautiful blade grass is the people that(58)A   you and the grassy field is time.In looking for your soul mate,please don't always(59)B  and hope that there will be a better one.By doing that,you'll (60)C your lifetime.Remember"Time Never Goes Back."

16.How Can I Fight Laziness?Lazy people will never gain anything in life.However,laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.
(36)D  Many people lack sleep constantly,since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work.These people have little motivation once they arrive home.Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things.By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest,you can fight laziness throughout the day.
Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active.Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task.Others take a more positive approach,viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone.(37)F  
Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations(诱惑) that surround them.A television in the living room may provide entertainment,but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness.(38)E  Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy,such as a good dinner or a film.
    Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home.Couples and children may all have different energy levels,but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately.(39)B   Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal.Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task.It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated(积极的) people.
(40)C  Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle,thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.

A.Knowing how to fight laziness is important
B.To fight family laziness,set an example.
C.Finally,taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness.
D.One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep.
E.Create a reward system for yourself,just as parents do for a child.
F.Laziness appears when you no longer feel in charge of your own mind.
G.With strong determination,you will be able to achieve your goal.
15.Let us suppose it is now about A.D.2060.Let's make believe it is about 47 years from now.Of course,things have changed and life is very different.
Voyages to the moon are being made every day.It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe.At a number of scenic spots on the moon,many hotels have been built.In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon,every room has at least one picture window.Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of young and old.
What are people eating now?People are still eating food.They haven't yet started to take on heir(继承) supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power.They may some day.But many foods now come in pill form,and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.
Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago,most of our planet's surface has to be filled.The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests.The harvest is always good
Farming,of course,is very highly developed.Very few people have to work on the farm.It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.
We are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds,and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain,and it is possible to get rid of diseases.No one has to be ill any more.
Such would be our life in 2060.

33.When was the passage written?C
A.In about A.D.2060
B.In about 1960
C.In about 2013
D.In about 2014
34.According to the passage,what will be on the moon in about A.D.2060?C
A.Many other animals.
B.Many plants.
C.Many tourists.
D.A sea.

C.there are fewer people
D.there is less water.
14.Beginning college is exciting:new ideas to explore,new challenges to be met and many decisions to be made;your future begins here.
However,you will find college life is different from your previous school environment.Many of us can be easily defeated by the details of running a well-balanced life.While some of us may have the know-how,I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before you.
The following you may find useful about life on campus:
•Plan well.There are so many new things to do at a new college or university.Give yourself time to make new friends and became familiar with the campus,but don't forget why you are there.Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely.
•If you don't have a"system"for planning your time now (like a day timer,a potable data book),get one.Most of all,don't depend on your memory.
•Don't miss the guidelines.The restrictions,rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student's handbook.Consider them well-balanced food for thought.What dates are important?What pieces of paper need to be handed in?What can/can't you do in your student residence (住处)?Who has the right for what?What do you need to complete to graduate?
•Write the word"STUDY"on the walls of your bedroom and bathroom,and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone,TV and the kitchen table.Consider this-you are paying thousands of dollars for your course.You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course.
•Build your identity.This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do.Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas.Do not be afraid of the beyond.This is learning to make good choices.

12.It was one of the hottest days of the dry season.We had not seen rain in almost a month.The crops were dying.Cows had stopped giving milk.The streams were long gone back into the earth.If we didn't see some rain soon we would lose everything.
I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year old son,Billy,walking toward the woods.He was obviously walking with a great effort…trying to be as still as possible.Minutes after he disappeared into the woods,he came running out again,toward the house.
Moments later,however,he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods.This activity went on for over an hour:walking cautiously to the woods,then running back to the house.Finally,my curiosity got the best of me.I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey.
He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked; being very careful not to spill the water he held in them.Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them.He had a much greater purpose.As I leaned in to spy on him,I saw the most amazing site.
Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him.But Billy walked right up to them.I almost screamed for him to get away.And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground,obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion,lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boy's hand.
I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life.As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground,they were suddenly joined by other drops…and more drops…and more.I looked up at the sky.It was as if God,Himself,was weeping with pride.
