听第10段材料，回答第18～20题。
This topic is about greeting in China．A few years ago, people would greet each other with the words “Have you had your breakfast or lunch or supper?” “Yes, how about you?” Then politely, both would leave with a smile on their faces．
This kind of greeting tells us what people cared about many years ago．For many years, having enough to eat was the most important thing for the Chinese people．The life of most people in China has become much better now．They do not worry about their food and clothing any more．The greeting has changed to “What are you going to do?” or “Where are you going?”
Though the greeting has no other meaning than saying hello, it often puzzles other people who are not familiar with China．Nowadays, more and more people are using “How are you?” to greet each other．It is certainly the best way for people to say hello to each other．
18．What did people mostly care about many years ago?
A．Are you full or hungry?
B．Where are you going?
C．Good manners．
19．What does the change of greetings in China show?
A．People are less polite to each other．
B．People have bad manners now．
C．People’s life is better．
20．Which is the best way for people to say hello to each other?
A．How do you do?
B．How are you?
C．Good morning．
Passage 1 is from the introduction to a Zen Buddhist (禅宗的佛教僧侣) manual on the art of “mindfulness”, the practice of paying close attention to the present moment. Passage 2 is from an essay by a United States author.
Passage 1
Every morning, when we wake up, we have 24 brand-new hours to live. What a precious gift! We have the capacity to live in a way that these 24 hours will bring peace, joy, and happiness to ourselves and to others.
Peace is right here and now, in ourselves and in everything we do and see. The question is whether or not we are in touch with it. We don’t have to travel far away to enjoy the blue sky. We don’t have to leave our city or even our neighborhood to enjoy the eyes of a beautiful child. Even the air we breathe can be a source of joy.
We can smile, breathe, walk, and eat our meals in a way that allows us to be in touch with the abundance of happiness that is available. We are very good at preparing how to live, but not very good at living. We know how to sacrifice ten years for a diploma, and we are willing to work very hard to get a job, a car, a house, and so on. But we have difficulty remembering that we are alive in the present moment, the only moment there is for us to be alive. Every breath we take, every step we make, can be filled with joy, peace, and serenity. We need only to be awake, alive in the present moment.
Passage 2
The argument of both the hedonist (享乐主义者) and the guru (印度教的宗师)is that we were but to open ourselves to the richness of the moment, to concentrate on the feast before us, we would be filled with bliss. I have lived in the present from time to time and can tell you that it is much overrated. Occasionally, as a holiday from stroking one’s memories or brooding (担忧) about future worries, I grant you, it can be a nice change of pace. But to “be here now,” hour after hour, would never work. I don’t even approve of stories written in the present tense. Ads for poets who never use a past participate, they deserve the eternity they are striving for.
Besides, the present has a way of intruding whether you like it or not. Why should I go out of my way to meet it? Let it splash on me from time to time, like a car going through a puddle, and I, on the sidewalk of my solitude (孤独), will salute it grimly like any other modern inconvenience.
If I attend a concert, obviously not to listen to the music but to find a brief breathing space in which to meditate on the past and future. I realize that there may be moments when the music invades my ears and I am forced to pay attention to it, note for note. I believe I take such intrusions gracefully. The present is not always anunwelcome guest, so long as it doesn’t stay too long and cut into my remembering or brooding time.
【小题1】The author of Passage 1 would most likely view the author of Passage 2 as _______.
| A．failing to respect the feelings of other people |
| B．squandering (浪费) a precious opportunity on a daily basis |
| C．advocating an action without considering the consequences |
| D．attaching too much importance to the views of others |
| A．absolute neutrality | B．partial acceptance |
| C．complete agreement | D．surprised disbelief |
| A．assume they will eventually obtain |
| B．eventually realize are overrated |
| C．are unwilling to make sacrifices for |
| D．see as worth much effort to acquire |
| A．an unavoidable imposition (强加) |
| B．an unsolvable puzzle |
| C．a dangerous threat |
| D．a burdensome obligation |
| A．“the hedonist and the guru” (line 1) |
| B．“a brief breathing space” (line 11) |
| C．“the feast before us” (line 2) |
| D．“an unwelcome guest” (line 14) |

听第11段独白，回答第18～20题。
18．What is the talk mainly about?
A．Improving our memory．
B．Taking care of our health．
C．Collecting information．
19．What should we do to remember someone’s name?
A．Write it down on a piece of paper．
B．Pay more attention to his or her first name．
C．Remember his or her last name．
20．What does the speaker suggest to us?
A．Having a rest for twenty minutes．
B．Taking some Vitamins B1 and B2．
C．Doing sports during the break．
听力原文：(Text 11)
W：There are many ways in which the memory can be improved．In fact, I believe we all have the ability to remember up to six times more than we do．
A lot of people find that visualizing information is very helpful．For example, if you are trying to remember a telephone number, imagine it written down on a piece of paper．
Remembering people’s names is a problem for a lot of people．I recommend that when you are introduced to someone you concentrate on his or her first name．It probably won’t offend anyone if you have to say, “What was your last name again, Sarah?” but Sarah might be upset if you forget her first name．
Of course, regular breaks are important and it’s better not to work for long periods without taking one, stopping for rest about every twenty minutes is best．
Finally, take care of yourself physically．Avoid substances like coffee, alcohol or drugs, because they dull the mind．And don’t forget your vitamins－B1 and B2 are particularly good for the memory．
Bad behavior is something that most people don’t want to tolerate. However, we have had to tolerate it more and more with each passing year. There seems to be no concern for other people’s feelings; nor do we seem to care about other people’s property. We live in an age where saying what is on our minds has priority over any harm that it might do.
There are ways to deal with bad behavior in modern times, though. Too many of us let bad behavior go because we don’t want to rock the boat. This is the time that you should rock the boat and rock it hard. Let people know that you expect it to change. That is the key to dealing with bad behavior. If it continues, take the proper action for the situation you are in. If you have developed the habit of bad behavior, take a hard look at it and then change it. You can’t expect others to behave well if you aren’t willing to look at your own bad behavior and change it.
If you don’t have control over anything in a situation, just walk away from it and move on to something that you do have control over. You needn’t feel ashamed of that. Besides, you must stand firm in what you believe. You can’t control what other people do, but you can control what you do about it. You can’t go wrong if you stand firm in what you believe. Understanding your responsibility is also important. Don’t try to take on the responsibility for other people’s behavior. Take care of what you have to and do it in the way you know it should be done. The rest will take care of itself.
Bad behavior is on the rise with more and more people behaving badly without having to pay any consequences. Worry about how you behave rather than how others behave. Pretty soon, it just may catch on.
41．It can be inferred from Paragraph 1 that _____________.
A. bad behavior is common today
B. bad behavior is sure to hurt people deeply
C. people behave badly because of carelessness
D. people are more understanding than before
42．When dealing with people’s bad behavior, you are advised to ____________.
A. fight it bravely whenever it happens
B. ignore it if it is beyond your control
C. let it go to avoid trouble
D. make people feel ashamed of their bad behavior
43．Why do many people behave badly according to the passage?
A. Because bad behavior is often ignored.
B. Because people are often influenced by others.
C. Because people aren’t punished for their bad behavior.
D. Because people haven’t realized its consequences.
