One night in March 1999, a man was driving from California to Oregon, US, to visit some friends. He had stopped his car to have some food when he started to hear strange noises. Turning on the headlights, he saw an 8-foot-tall creature covered in thick, dark hair. The creature stared at him for a minute, turned in the road and walked off slowly into the woods.

In the past 50 years alone, there have been thousands of reported sightings of similar creatures in the US, Canada, the Himalayas(喜马拉雅山地区)and even Hubei Province in China. The creature is known as bigfoot.

Bigfoot is said to be a very tall(between 2 and 4. 5 metres), ape-like(类人猿似的)creature that is covered in hair and walks upright on two legs. It is very wary(警惕的)of human beings.

Believers think bigfoot is a direct descendent(后代)of ancient gigantopithecus(巨猿). But it remains one of the planet’s undiscovered secrets. There is a little evidence(证据)to support the believers’ theory: traces of hair, footprints and body prints as well as the reported sightings. Some people have even showed what they say with photos or films of bigfoot.

But so far, no one has found bones or any other definite proof that the giant creature exists.

As a result many people believe the evidence is just part of a big trick.

The footprints are easy to make and they say: all you need to do is to make two large feet out of plaster(石膏), attach them to the bottom of your shoes and walk with big steps. As for the photos and films, they are just people dressed in ape suits.

They also say the sightings are not real, just people making mistakes. For example, bigfoot could be a bear living in the wild that sometimes stands up on its back legs.

1. So far what we can be sure about is that　　　　.

A. there exist savages(野人)in several places in the world

B. there are some traces of hair, footprints and body prints of the “bigfoot”

C. bigfoot is a direct descendent of ancient gigantopithecus

D. all the big foot discovered have the same look

2.It was in　　　that man first found the ape-like creature.

A. 1999B. the 1960’s

C. the 1950’sD. the 1940’s

3. The article infers but doesn’t say so that some people　　　　bigfoot’s existence.

A. may fool the world into believing

B. have definite evidences to prove

C. refuse to believe

D. will soon offer proofs of

4.If bigfoot is just a misunderstanding, what they saw might NOT be　　　　.

A. apes

B. bears

C. gigantopithecus

D. people dressed in animal skins

Many people think that the most popular way of communicating with other people is through the mouth. But what they don’t know is that actual communication using the mouth accounts for(占……比例)only around 10%(or even less)of all the means to communicate a message.

Moreover, you can never determine the truthfulness or honesty of people by what they say alone. In fact, words expressed through the mouth often do not reflect what people really think or feel. The more reliable way you can determine their true inner feelings and thoughts is by reading their body language. Everybody communicates using these gestures and if you understand the gestures and their meanings you will be able to read people and know what they are really communicating to you. One researcher even went as far as to say that we speak to hide what’s on our minds. But gestures cannot lie.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you can “see through” the emotions of other people? Let’s say you ask a person whether he can do an important task. He says “OK”. But deep inside, you are questioning yourself, “Is he really willing to do this job? ” or “Does he have the confidence in finishing this task? ”You can’t question him directly because that would be like belittling him. And even if you ask him those questions, his replies will not tell you what he really feels or thinks. So the most useful way is to observe his body language. Expressions like smiling, frowning(皱眉), pouting(撅嘴), facial reddening, sweating, toe curling and sideways glances are visible hints that can help you make a right judgment.

1. According to the passage, we know　　　.

A. words through the mouth are the most common way in communication

B. body language is the quickest way to help people understand each other

C. expressions are the most powerful tool to judge whether a man is confident or not

D. you may know what a person really thinks with the help of reading his body language

2.What does the underlined sentence mean in the second paragraph?

A. We can express ourselves well by body language.

B. We use words to prevent others knowing our true thoughts.

C. Spoken words can fully reflect our true self.

D. We use body language to help express ourselves.

3.The underlined word in the third paragraph can be replaced with　　　.

A. looking down upon　　　B. speaking highly of

C. laughing atD. believing in

The young parents _________ too much a pet of their son, which is bound to destroy him in the end.

What is the purpose of readig or studying? If you can't remember what you read or study,it will be a waste of time． 1. One useful aid that does help you remember what you study is to have a specific purpose or reason for reading．

Why does a clerk in a store go away when your reply to her offer to help is, "No, thank you．I'm just looking．"? Both you and she know that if you aren't sure what you want, you are not likely to find it．But suppose you say instead, "Yes, thank you．I want a pair of sun glasses．" She says, "Right this way, please.”It’s quite the same with your studying. If you choose a book, "just looking" for nothing in particular, you are likely to get just that—nothing． 2. Your reasons will vary; they will include reading or studying "to find out more about", "to understand the reasons for" and "to find out how"．

3. Before you start to study, you say to yourself something like this, "I want to know why Stephen Vincent Benet happened to write about America"．Because you know why you are reading or studying, you relate the information to your purpose and remember it better．

Reading is not one single activity. 4. As you read, you take in ideas rapidly and accurately．But at the same time you express your own ideas to yourself as you react to what you read．You have a kind of mental conversation with the author．

This additional process of thinking about what you read includes evaluating it, relating it to what you already know, and using it for your own purposes 5. One part of critical reading, as you have discovered, is distinguishing between facts and opinions．Facts can be checked by evidence. Opinions are one's own personal reactions．Another part of critical reading is judging sources．Still another part is drawing accurate inferences．

A. This is an effective studying way.

B．In other words, a good reader is a critical reader．

C．You remember better when you know what you' re reading．

D. At least two important processes go on at the same time.　

E．It is important for students to have a positive attitude to their study．

F. But if you do know what you want, you are almost sure to get it.

G．Perhaps you have already discovered some good ways to keep yourself from forgetting．

My sister Jodie and I are always traveling for work. As jewelry designers, we need to go to a lot of shows. We can’t pack lightly and usually bring about four suitcases filled with our work.

Most of our stuff is made from heavy materials and metals. So part of the routine for us when we fly is getting stopped by security. Our jewelry sets off the alarms, and we’ve become accustomed to arriving early to go through private screenings. Most of the time, it’s not troublesome.

However, on our recent trip to a Paris trade show, we were stopped at security and asked to empty our bags. One of the agents walked over to another agent and they started whispering to each other. Both gentlemen came back, and one of them then told us that it seemed that we were carrying a very dangerous object.

My sister and I just said, “Huh?” Of course, we were a little concerned, thinking that maybe someone put something dangerous in one of our bags when we weren’t looking.

One of the agents then started to unpack our bags. I kept asking what he was looking for and then the object in question finally appeared. It was our Cosima necklace. It’s a piece of jewelry, with large, metal triangular spikes.

My sister and I looked at each other and breathed a huge sigh of relief. We started laughing and explained to the two male agents that it was just a necklace from our collection, not a weapon of mass destruction. They thought we were lying, and one agent kept repeating that he believed it was a weapon.

I tried to explain that we were jewelry designers going to a trade show, and this was simply a piece from our collection. But the agents didn’t buy it. Then a few women guards came over to assist. One of the women guards was holding an earring up to her ear and another was trying on a ring. Apparently, they liked our stuff.

It was only at this point that the male guards gave up. And I think they also got tired of listening to a bunch of women talk about jewelry. They let us through.

We took the names of the women agents and sent them a piece of jewelry when we got back to say thanks.

1.When the object in question finally appeared, the writer and her sister felt _______.

A. anxious B. relieved C. excited D. frightened

2.The writer and her sister were stopped by the agents because ________.

A. their suitcases were too heavy

B. the agents wanted to play a joke on them

C. they were suspected to carry dangerous objects

D. the agents wanted to admire the jewelry inside the suitcases

3.The underlined word “buy” in Paragraph 7 probably means ________.

A. doubt B. believe C. purchase D. understand

4.The writer sent the women agents a piece of jewelry in order to ________.

A. persuade them to buy her jewelry later

B. get help from them next time

C. show them her talent in designing jewelry

D. show them her gratitude for their assistance

5.According to this passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. Someone put something dangerous in one of the writer’s bags.

B. The male agents didn’t believe the writer at first.

C. The female agents liked the jewelry.

D. The writer is always travelling on business.

The environment has become a matter of great concern to the general public.

Many people think that listening is a passive business. It is just the opposite. Listening well is an active exercise of our attention and hard work. It is because they do not realize this, or because they are not willing to do the work, that most people do not listen well.

Listening well also requires total concentration upon someone else. An essential part of listening well is the rule known as ‘bracketing’. Bracketing includes the temporary giving up or setting aside of your own prejudices and desires, to experience as far as possible someone else’s world from the inside, stepping into his or her shoes. Moreover, since listening well involves bracketing, it also involves a temporary acceptance of the other person. Sensing this acceptance, the speaker will seem quite willing to open up the inner part of his or her mind to the listener. True communication is under way and the energy required for listening well is so great that it can be accomplished only by the will to extend oneself for mutual growth.

Most of the time we lack this energy. Even though we may feel in our business dealings or social relationships that we are listening well, what we are usually doing is listening selectively. Often we have a prepared list in mind and wonder, as we listen, how we can achieve certain desired results to get the conversation over as quickly as possible or redirected in ways more satisfactory to us. Many of us are far

more interested in talking than in listening, or we simply refuse to listen to what we don’t want to hear.

It wasn’t until toward the end of my doctor career that I have found the knowledge that one is being truly listened to is frequently therapeutic(有疗效的) In about a quarter of the patients I saw, surprising improvement was shown during the first few months of psychotherapy(心理疗法), before any of the roots of problems had been uncovered or explained. There are several reasons for this phenomenon, but chief among them, I believe, was the patient’s sense that he or she was being truly listened to, often for the first time in years, and for some, perhaps for the first time ever.

1.. The phrase “stepping into his or her shoes” in paragraph 2 probably means _______.

A. preparing a topic list first

B. focusing on one’s own mind

C. directing the talk to the desired results

D. experiencing the speaker’s inside world

2.. What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2 ?

A. How to listen well.

B. What to listen to.

C. Benefits of listening.

D. Problems in listening

3.According to the author , in communication people tend to ________.

A. listen actively

B. listen purposefully

C. set aside their prejudices

D. open up their inner mind

4. According to the author , the patients improved mainly because _______.

A. they were taken good care of.

B. they knew they were truly listened to.

C. they had partners to talk to.

D. they knew the roots of problems.
