I love spending weekends with my grandparents. I felt especially welcome and    36    in Grany’s small kitchen. It was there that we had conversations and Grany always seemed to include a bit of    37    with every recipe she prepared.
I remember one Saturday morning    38   . After breakfast I asked Grany, “What kind of soup are you making today?” “Vegetable beef,” she answered, “And you can help by chopping some carrots and celery.” As I slowly peeled carrots, I    39   , “I’ve got to give an oral work report next week and I’m    40   .”
Grany looked at me and said, “Most people are afraid of    41    speaking. But remember, the only thing you have to fear is fear    42   .”
“But I don’t like standing up in front of everybody.    43    I forget what I’m going to say?”
“Have you prepared    44   ?” asked Grany.
“Well, no. That would be a lot of    45    work.”
“But do you like my soup?” she asked. Soup? I wondered. I thought we were talking about my life.
“I love your soup, Grany.” I said.
“Well, you know, a lot of people don’t    46    homemade soup these days. They say it’s too much trouble. First you have to cook a nice broth（肉汤）and then chop all the vegetables into bite-size pieces.”
“But I don’t    47    a little trouble,” she said. “It adds variety and flavor to my soup and to my life. My soup would be    48    bland（淡而无味的）without the vegetables, and so would my life if it didn’t have the little    49   .”
After pausing she added, “Besides, you have to remember God knows exactly    50    he’s cooking up in your life. You’ve got to trust him with the recipe.” She smiled and then walked to the sink to start washing the dishes.
While I help Grany 51 , I thought as well what she had said. I still had a few days to 52    my oral report.
That Saturday, Grany gave me food for thought as well as a bowl of her homemade soup. Every spoonful of Grany’s masterpiece was    53    with delicious bits of meat and vegetables. As I enjoyed the meal with my grandparents,    54    my problems didn’t seem quite so big any more. I was determined to work on them. Grany had said hard work    55   . Maybe I too could turn a little trouble into something as special as Grany’s homemade soup.tesoon

Five Simple Ways to Increase Your Intelligence
Your brain needs exercise just like a muscle. If you use it often and in the right ways, you will become a more skilled thinker and increase your ability to focus.
Here are 5 simple ways anyone can squeeze a bit more productivity out of the old gray matter.
1. __________-This is a hard sell. People love vegetating in front of the television, myself included more often than I’d like. The problem is watching television doesn’t use your mental capacity OR allow it to recharge. It’s like having the energy sapped out of a muscle without the health benefits of exercise.
When you feel like relaxing, try reading a book instead. If you’re too tired, listen to some music. When you’re with your friends or family, leave the tube off and have a conversation. All of these things use your mind more than television and allow you to relax.
Exercise- I used to think that I'd learn more by not exercising and using the time to read a book instead. But I realized that time spent exercising always leads to greater learning because it improves productivity during the time afterwards. Using your body clears your head and creates a wave of energy. Afterwards, you feel invigorated（精力充沛）and can concentrate more easily.
2. __________-Many people like to read popular suspense fiction, but generally these books aren't mentally stimulating. If you want to improve your thinking and writing ability you should read books that make you focus. Reading a classic novel can change your view of the world and will make you think in more precise, elegant English. Don’t be afraid to look up a word if you don’t know it, and don’t be afraid of dense passages. Take your time, re-read when necessary, and you’ll soon grow accustomed to the author’s style.
3. __________-Nothing makes it harder to concentrate than sleep deprivation. You'll be most rejuvenated if you go to bed early and don’t sleep more than 8 hours. If you stay up late and compensate by sleeping late, you’ll wake up lethargic（无精打采）and have trouble focusing. In my experience the early morning hours are the most tranquil and productive. Waking up early gives you more productive hours and maximizes your mental acuity（敏锐）all day.
If you have the opportunity, take 10-20 minute naps when you are hit with a wave of drowsiness. Anything longer will make you lethargic, but a short nap will refresh you.
4. __________-Often our lives get so hectic that we become overwhelmed without even realizing it. It becomes difficult to concentrate because nagging thoughts keep interrupting. Spending some time alone in reflection gives you a chance to organize your thoughts and prioritize your responsibilities. Afterwards, you’ll have a better understanding of what's important and what isn’t. The unimportant stuff won’t bother you anymore and your mind will feel less encumbered.
Conclusion-I hope you aren’t disappointed that none of the techniques I've proposed are revolutionary. But simple, unexciting answers are often the most valid. The challenge is having the will to adhere to them. If you succeed in following these 5 tips, you’ll be rewarded with increased mental acuity and retention of knowledge.

Paul was dealing with a crisis. The new girl Linda in class really liked him a lot. Paul was not happy about it.

Paul's good friend, Sam, tried to comfort him. "What's the big deal? I think Linda is kind of cute and nice enough."

Paul glared at Sam. "Then why don't you ask her to be your girlfriend? There she is, sitting all by herself at the other end of the cafeteria. Go there and ask her to be your honey!"

"She's crazy about you, not me," Sam replied.

"Well, I don't want any girlfriend, especially not a girl like her! "Paul growled.

Sam wouldn't give up. "The only thing pesky about her is that she keeps writing you those notes ."

"I don't like notes at all!" Paul interrupted. He took another sip of milk.

"Did you notice those strange brown eyes? Why aren't they normal red or pink?"

Sam took another look at Linda. "I think her face is a lovely shade of green. And her dark green curly hair is quite pretty. Besides, she's very gentle and that's what really matters."

Paul stuck out his tongue. "I think I'm going to be sick! I'd better save my dessert for later." He crammed a small bag of Maggot Munchies into his even smaller shirt pocket. "The fact is, I have a problem. That girl is getting on my nerves! "

Sam followed Paul’s example and decided to save his dessert for later. However, he carefully placed the bag into his lunch box. "Do you have any ideas about how to solve your problem?" Tremor asked.

"I'm going to be mean and rude to her," Paul announced. "I'll call her names and make ugly faces at her."

I′m not so sure I like my friends any more．I used to like them—to be honest．We′d have lunch, talk on the phone or exchange e—mails，and they all seemed normal enough. But then came Facebook．and I was introduced to a sad fact：many of my friends have dark sides that they had kept from me．

Today my friends show off the more unpleasant aspects of their personalities via Facebook. No longer hidden，they′re thrown in my face like TV commercials—unavoidable and endless advertisements for the worst of their personalities．

Take Fred．If you were to have lunch with him，you’d find him warm, and down-to-earth．Read his Facebook and you realize he′s an unbearable，food．obsessed bore．He′d pause to have a cup of coffee on his way to save a drowning man—and then write about it．

Take Andy．You won′t find a smarter CEO anywhere, but now he′s a CEO without a company to lull．So he plays Mafia Wars on Facebook．He′s doing well—level 731．Thanks to Facebook，I know he’s playing about 18 hours a day．Andy．you′ve run four companies—and this is how you spend your downtime? What happened to golf? What happened to getting another job?

Take Liz．She is positive that the H1N1 vaccine(疫苗)will kill us all and that we should avoid it．And then comes Chris who likes to post at least 20 times a day on every website he can find，so I get to read his thoughts twice, once on Faeebook and once on Twitter．

In real life，I don′t see these sides of people．Face to face．my friends show me their best．They′re nice，smart people．But face to Facebook，my friends are like a blind date which goes horribly wrong．

I′m left with a dilemma．Who is my real friend? Is it the Liz I have lunch with or the anti．vaccine lunatic(狂人)on Facebook? Is it the Fred I can grab a sandwich with or the Fred who weeps if he′S at a party and the wine isn′t up to his standards?

71．Who is opposed to the H1N1 vaccine in the text?

A．Fred． B．Andy． C．Liz． D．Chris．

72．What′S Andy probably busy in doing now?

A. He′s running his company． B．He′s playing golf all day．

C. He′s looking for another job． D．He′s playing computer games．

73．According to the text，Facebook tends to_________________．

A．present another side of people B．offer some fbods for free

C．show endless advertisements D．get you to more parties

74．The text is developed mainly by__________________．

A．giving examples B．following the time order

C．1isting figures D．raising questions

75．The author focuses on the question of______________．

A. what is Faeebook B．what happened to golf
