14．Things You Should Insist on No Matter What People SayLife can get pretty crazy at times．(36)GHapp——青夏教育精英家教网—

14．Things You Should Insist on No Matter What People SayLife can get pretty crazy at times．（36）GHappiness is dependent upon ourselves，and there are some things in life you should always insist on doing，no matter what others have to say about it．Here is a list of some things you should always do．
1．Learn from your mistakes
No matter what people say，you will make mistakes in your life．Life is a learning process in itself．Some people will make you feel bad about your mistakes，or insult（侮辱） you for making them．（37）EAccept your mistakes fully and really figure out what went wrong．
2．Hug change and creativity
A popular proverb is，"You cannot solve a problem in the same state of consciences that created it．"（38）BChange and creativity are vital in today's world．Things are always changing，so why should we be any different？
3．Appreciate what you have
（39）DThis can take away from our happiness．Sometimes you just need to sit back and be happy about where your life is right now，and what you have to show for it．Sure people might tell you it's not good enough，but don't listen to them．It is good enough，and it gives you a sense of pride when you can enjoy the things you already have in life．
4．Listen to your heart
Sometimes you just need to follow your instincts（直觉） and do what your heart tells you．There are some situations，like relationships，that rely more on your heart than on your head．People will surely tell you differently，but you should always insist on listening to what you want and feel．Again，you are the one who lives with your choices，and you are the one that has to live with the"what ifs．"（40）A

A．Sometimes you just have to follow your heart．
B．Not everything can be solved in a traditional way．
C．However，being dedicated to something will pay off．
D．We can forget to take a step back and enjoy what we have in life．
E．However，don't let that stand in your way from learning from them．
F．To some people your dreams might sound far-fetched，unobtainable，or downright silly．
G．Sometimes we forget how important it is to actually listen to ourselves instead of others．

12．It's not often you get information about a destination from a heavy metal band，but in Debrecen，Hungary's second largest city，locals are used to having to make a noise to get heard．
Just off the historic center，Roncs bar is a pub that also hosts live music．It has the atmosphere of a student party in an old building that might soon be knocked down．
Roncs is owned by Hungary's best-known heavy metal rock band，Tankcsapda．Sometimes referred to as the"Hungarian Metallica"，the band has taken a type of music that is famous worldwide and-through lyrics，album covers，and an annual New Year's party and concert-made it all about their home city．
It's perhaps fitting that Tankcsapda should be seen as ambassadors for Debrecen-the city sometimes needs loud heavy metal rock music to get noticed．"Foreigners think that Hungary is Budapest and there's nothing else，"is a familiar saying on Debrecen's：streets．
Debrecen has，at times，been more important than the current seat of power，with locals claiming it takes over in times of trouble．
That doesn't quite add up．
Debrecen survived an attack from the Mongols in the 13th century，the Black Death，150years of struggle against the Ottomans and numerous conflicts，and yet it[来源：has still only briefly been the country's capital twice．This happened for the first time after a short-lived revolution in 1849，and for a second time at the end of World War II．
Today，Debrecen may not be well known to tourists，but that only adds to the charm of this relaxed city．It's a small place； the historical center is sized for strolling （散步） and regular cafe stops．There's also a view of Debrecen's mix of architectural styles，a result of the frequent large fires that back in the 19th century led the city's students to form one of Europe's first-ever fire brigades （消防队）．
You can also see traditional weathercocks from the rooftops，featuring Islamic star and crescent moon symbols that once advertised to Ottoman invaders that the city preferred trading to fighting．
Trade meant that Debrecen's skilled people became very successful and the city became famous for-among other things-fine foods，hats and clay pipes．In the early 19th century，10million clay pipes were reportedly made a year，with thousands bought for Britain's navy．

28．What do Debrecen citizens expect Tankcsapda to do？C
A．Introduce heavy metal music to Hungary．
B．Hold parties featuring live heavy metal music shows．
C．Try to make Debrecen known with its music．
D．Create a unique type of heavy metal music．
29．Why are locals used to having to make a noise to get heard？B
A．Because they feel their city is too quiet and relaxed．
B．Because they dislike it that the world only knows Budapest in Hungary．
C．Because they think it helps create a powerful image of their city．
D．Because all kinds of music bars bring their city alive．
30．What does the underlined word refer to？A
A．Styles．
B．Conditions．
C．Atmosphere．
D．Climate．
31．What is the key message the author wants to deliver in this passage？B
A．Debrecen actually is more important than Budapest．
B．Debrecen is a place which is worth visiting．
C．Debrecen citizens love music and create their unique culture．
D．Debrecen citizens are proud of their culture and history．

11．Dyslexia（失读症）is a learning disorder，it interferes with the ability to recognise words，and for some readers to understand what they have read．
Experts say dyslexia affects about five to ten percent of the population of the United State．Researchers have long known that people with dyslexia write or read words and letters backwards in the wrong order．
But a new study shows that people with dyslexia may have trouble redirecting（重新传入） their attention between senses，from seeing something to hearing something．The study suggests something that might help dyslexic people learn more quickly-play video games．
Vanessa Harrar of Britain's University of Oxford led the study．She reported the findings in the journal Current Biology．The study suggests that dyslexic people may have trouble moving quickly from what they read to what they hear．Doctor Harrar calls this a"sluggish shifting of attention across the senses．"
"So，if you are trying to read something and then trying to listen to somebody who's reading aloud and you're trying to follow along with what they are reading--they have to switch their attention from hearing what they are saying to looking at the piece of paper and back again．So we found they have quite sluggish shifting of attention across the senses，"said Harrar．
In the study，Doctor Harrar tested 17 people with dyslexia，and 19 others without reading problems．The volunteers were asked to push a button as quickly as possible when they heard a sound，saw a light or experienced both together．Doctor Harrar compared the speed of their reactions．
She found that people with dyslexia were just as fast as the others when they saw only a picture or heard only a sound．But the dyslexics had a slower reaction time when they heard a sound and saw a picture at the same time．
Doctor Harrar feels like playing action video games could help dyslexic people shift from seeing to hearing more quickly．She adds that images in video games force the eyes to move and focus quickly．
"Video game types of things pop out of here and there，they move your eyes around the screen quite quickly in response to things quite quickly，and the more you play a video game the faster you get that kind of thing．So，the video game is really training the attention system to move quickly，"said Harrar．
The study also shows that dyslexic people have the most difficulty going between what they saw and what they heard，this may have an effect on how dyslexic children are taught how to read．
When children learn the alphabet，they usually see the letter first and then hear the sound，or they see and hear the letter at the same time．The study shows that dyslexics might learn more quickly if they hear the sound of a letter or word first before seeing it．

A．Video Games are good for children．
B．Study Suggests Video Games Might Help Dyslexics
C．A study about Video Games is being carried out．
D．Children with Dyslexics can learn better by playing video games．
25．What does the underlined word"sluggish"in Paragragh 4 mean？A
A．slow B．wrong C．specific D．accurate
26．Why can playing video games help dyslexic people learn more quickly？C
A．While playing video games，people will train their reading and hearing．
B．While playing video games，people will have a good knowledge of the system．
C．While playing video games，people should move their eyes around the screen quite quickly train the attention system to move quickly．
D．Video games can arouse their interest in reading．
27．What is the importance of the finding？D
A．The finding will prove video games are not necessarily bad for children．
B．People with Dyslexia will be cured by playing video games．
C．People with Dyslexia will not be made fun of by others．
D．The finding may have an effect on the way to teach dyslexic children how to read．

9．1．Do the British really get together every afternoon at 4 p．m．to sit and drink several cups of tea？Ask any of my German students and they will tell you"YES!"
I'm sorry to disappoint，but it's simply not true．We drink over 150 million cups of tea a day in Britain，but there is no special time for the nation's favorite drink．British people will drink tea all day whether morning，noon or night （my mother makes her first cup at 6 a．m．）．There are reasons for the confusion surrounding"teatime"，however．
"Tea"is widely used as a name for the evening meal．This is more common in Scotland and the north of England but you can hear it all over the country．Usually it is the main meal of the day，eaten between 5 p．m．and 7 p．m．So，"teatime"refers to the meal and not the drink．In the south，the evening meal is often called dinner，while dinner in the north is the midday meal．Confused？Many heated debates can happen between southerners and northerners about the right name．
What about tea breaks？Surely this must be a special time for tea？Wrong again，I'm afraid．Tea breaks are simply an opportunity to have a rest from work for around 10 minutes．During this time you can drink whatever you like．Also a small snack，like biscuits，is usually eaten．The best time for a tea break is mid-morning around 11 a．m．or mid-afternoon around 3 p．m．
But what about tea rooms？Can I drink tea there？Yes!A tea room is the perfect place to go with friends and family to enjoy tea，cakes，and sandwiches．This is known as afternoon tea and is usually served during special activities such as a birthday or engagement （订婚） party．Tea rooms are also very popular with tourists and are definitely worth a visit．
Teatime，tea breaks，afternoon tea…how could you possibly get muddled up （混淆）？

1．What does"tea"mean in Scotland and the north of England？（不多于3个单词）The meal．/The evening meal．
2．What is the aim of tea breaks？（不多于4个单词）To have a rest．/To rest．
3．What special activities can be held in tea rooms？（不多于5个单词）A birthday or engagement party．/Birthday or engagement parties．
