Scientists find that hard,working people live longer than average men and women. Career(职业) women are healthier than housewives.Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than the jobholders.An investigation (调查) shows that whenever the unemployment rate increases by 1%, the death rate increases by 2%. All this comes down to one point, work is helpful to health.

Why is work good for health?It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness and solitude (孤单).Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead the happiest are those who are busy. Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into contact with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.

Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement.Work makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.

From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work  the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study hard and live a happy and healthy life.

64. The underlined word “average” in Paragraph1 means“______”.

    A. healthy         B. lazy         C. ordinary       D. poor

    B. Housewives have more children than career women.

    C. Housewives have less chance to communicate with others.

    D. Housewives eat less food than career women.

    A. Busy people have nothing to do at home.

    B. High achievers don't care about their families.

    C. There is no friendship and warmth at home.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、和D项中选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Like other student athletes, Ray Ray McElrathbey deals with schoolwork, practice and games. But after a long day of studying and working out on the football field, the Clemson University player can’t relax with friends. Ray Ray has to make sure his 11-year-old brother, Fahmarr, gets a good dinner, does his homework and goes to bed.

Since taking responsibility for Fahmarr this August, “I’ve aged dramatically, ” said Ray Ray. “I can’t be running around at all hours, making 19-year-old decisions.” Ray Ray has temporary custody (监护权) of Fahamrr. Their mother struggles with drug addiction, and they are not in touch with their dad. Ray Ray didn’t want to see his brother go into foster care(收养), where both of them have spent time. The brothers now live together in an apartment near the campus in Clemson, South Carolina.

Clemson Tigers fans aren’t the only people rooting for Ray Ray. Sports Illustrated, ESPN and ABC News have featured the story of the brothers. They have received praise and many offers of help, but Ray Ray attends the university and arrange their life on a scholarship. Under the rules, he can’t accept money or gifts. Coaches’ family members can’t even give Fahmarr a ride home from school.

This changed a few weeks ago, when the National Collegiate Athletic Association allowed Clemson to set up a trust fund for Fahmarr. It will help provide for his basic needs, including food and clothing. However, the brothers can give each other something that all the money in the world can’t buy. Ray Ray says he hopes to instill in Fahmarr qualities of “strength and intelligence”. He says having his brother around is “a great thing, knowing he will grow up right.”

第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题,每题2分,满分40分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题上将该项涂黑。

Have you ever got stuck with unwanted courses or a class schedule that cannot be changed? If so, that’s because you don’t know how to select the perfect schedule.But by following a few simple steps, you can begin any term with the right courses at the most convenient times.

First, you must find the right courses.These are the ones that have the least amount of work, the fewest tests and the kindest professors.Ask your friends about courses in which they received A’s after attending only 70 percent of the classes.Ask around, too, to see which instructors have given the same tests for the last fifteen years.Photocopies of these tests are usually cheap and can be easily found in school.Then, pick up a copy of the master schedule and study it carefully.Find the course titles that mean an easy pass for a painless subject.Look for titles like “Arts and Crafts for Beginners,” and “Rock Music of the 1950s.”

Next, when you have got lists of easy instructors and subjects you can begin to select your time periods.If you stay up late in order to watch old movies, you may want a daily schedule that begins no sooner than noon.You should schedule only afternoon courses, too, if you’re one of those people who hate to leave a warm bed in the morning.On the other hand, if you are a person who gets out of bed at dawn, you may want to get your classes out of the way as early as possible.That way you have the rest of the day free.Morning classes are also necessary if you are a soap opera(肥皂剧)fan.

Finally, you want your schedule to pass through registration successfully.The main way to do this is to register(注册)early.If a course does happen to be closed because you simply couldn’t register at 7:00 a.m., you may still be able to get in.Talk to the professor and tell him or her that a serious and hardworking student like yourself would be a shining example to other students.Be sure to carry a list of backup courses to registration, though, just in case one of your chosen classes changes professors or time periods.By following these suggestions, any student can pick the perfect class schedule.College can thus become an almost pleasant activity.

56.Which of the following statements is true?

A.You can get copies of tests if you are willing to pay the price.

B.“Rock Music of the 1950s” may be an easy course.

C.It is difficult to pick the perfect class schedule.

D.Attendance is required in all classes.

57.You should            .

A.register for classes in the morning if you get up early

B.have classes late in the morning if you stay up late

C.sign up for afternoon classes if you want to see soap operas

D.choose classes in the evening if you want to watch old films

58.If a course happens to be closed, you should            .

A.register at 7:00 a.m. B.sit in on the class anyway

C.register for a backup course    D.get help from the professor

59.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.Course Registration Made Easy      B.How to Find the Right Courses

C.Classes and After-class Activities    D.How to Pick the Perfect Schedule

     Every person leaves a footprint.That’s what I learnt when I started to work as a private investigator 10 years ago.People pay restaurant bills with their bank cards,check into hotels or travel around. In every case,they leave a trace.And because of this,I’m able to track them down even when they don’t want to be found.

    The first thing I do when I want to find out where someone is staying is to go to the neighborhood where he used to live。It’s human nature to tell stories which is why neighbors will tell me all they know when I ring at their houses.Sometimes,someone even talks about his friend’s dishonesty.Then I produce a pattern of my subject’s life:if he likes to  have a holiday in Spain or in Italy, if he prefers two-or-three-star hotels and where he might hide his assets.When I’ve got this life pattern,I start my research.

    Nine times out of 10,I find the people I'm looking for.I once investigated a lorry supplier who owed£500,000 to a subcontractor(分包商)。The subcontractor wanted to find out if it was worth bringing charges against the supplier I found out the supplier had moved assets to his son,who founded a new company offering the same product.It was all done within the law.There was no money to be got from that operation.

    However, I asked the son If I could speak to his father and he told me that his parent was on a long holiday in Spain and wouldn’t be back for a while.It didn’t take me long to find out that the father wasn’t in Spain. 

    I went back to the son and this time he told me that his father might be in Bulgaria, and I found him doing winter sport‘s in a beautiful mountain area.He was living in a big house on a  large piece of land he had bought for£400,000.This was exactly the kind of asset my customer was looking for.

68.We learn from the text that a private investigator is one who            .

    A.follows people and reports on what they do

    B.helps people start business

    C.gives advice to people about the law   

    D.settles arguments between businesses or companies 

69.The underlined word “assets”(in paragraph 2)most probably means         .

    A.houses          B.family          C.identity    D.possessions

70.According to the passage,which of the following is TRUE?

    A.The author visits the place where his subject used to live in order to find out why he is dishonest.

    B.It’s human nature to share some trouble with others

    C.The author usually tracks someone’s bank card first if he wants to find out where the man is staying.

    D.The lorry supplier moved his asset’s to his son in order to prevent paying back the money he owed.

71.We may infer from the text that the subcontractor might        

    A.bring charges against the lorry supplier’s son

    B.give up hope of settling the debt

    C.get his money back

    D.sell the big house in Bulgaria
