Chances are you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives（察觉）something different about it.Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush-hour traffic jam at the intersection. The third may tell you that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in tow（拉着）. For perception is the minds interpretation of what the sensesin this case our eyestell us.Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene.21. Perceiving is an action that takes place _.A. in our eyes. B. only when we think very hard about something.C. only under the direction of a psychologist. D. in every persons mind.22. People perceive different things about the same scene because _.A. they see different things. B. they can not agree about thingsC. some have better eyesight D. none of these23. Psychologists study perception by _.A. setting up many experiments. B. asking each other what they see.C. looking out of windows. D. Studying peoples eyes.24. The best title for this article is _.A. How We See B. Learning About Our Minds Through ScienceC. What Psychologists Perceive D. How To Become An Experimental PsychologistB My topic is fashion(时装),and to make my talk more lively, I have brought five objects. Fashion is important to all of us. Now we are all wearing school uniforms(校服). When we go home, what do we do? We change into other clothes. If we are going out, we like to wear fashionable clothes. So my first object is this blouse. It looks beautiful, doesnt it? It is the most expensive piece of clothing, and I love it. It cost over 600. You may say that it is too expensive, but luckily I can afford it. The more you spend, the better the quality is. So you see, fashion is quite important to me, I admire it. However, Im not as fond of fashion as my elder brother. Last summer, my parents took us both to London. They wanted to show us some famous sights. But my brother Gary did not appreciate the old buildings. He just wanted to spend all his time in the big shopping arcades(拱廊), searching for the coolest pair of trousers! For him, fashion was more important than culture. These are the trousers he bought. Were they worth the expensive of a trip to London to buy these? I dont think so. I think it was a waste of time and money. We must, however, remember that fashion is a very big business. Changes in fashion can create or lose jobs. As an example, I have bought this blonde(淡黄色的) wig(假发) to show you. Do you like it? It belongs to one of my mothers friends. She told me that in the 1960s, it was fashionable for western women to wear wigs. But a few years later fashions changed and women wore wigs much less often. Then the wig factories closed down and hundreds of workers lost their jobs.25. The passage may be _. A. a story from a magazine B. a piece of news from a newspaperC. a report on the radio D. a speech to the fellow students26. The author showed all these objects EXCEPT_ in the passage. A. the blonde wig B. the expensive blouseC. the coolest trousers D. the school uniform27.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. The author doesnt like fashion as much as her elder brotherB. At once time, wearing wigs was fashionable for western womenC. Fashion is important to people who like itD. The high the price is, the better the quality is.28. What does the author want to tell us in last paragraph?A. Wigs were always popular in the pastB. People in the east once liked wearing blonde wigsC. Fashion is actually a business D. Business often depends on the production of wigs.CWhen someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness is possible - and it can be surprisingly helpful to your physical and mental health. Indeed, research has shown that people who forgive report more energy, better appetite (胃口) and better sleep patterns. People who forgive show less anger and more hopefulness, says Dr. Frederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help save on the wear and tear on our system and allow people to feel more energetic.So when someone has hurt you, calm yourself first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love. Don t wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing, says Dr. Luskin. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just dont see things the same way. So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting a very long time. Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting the action of the person who upset you. Mentally going over your hurt gives power to the person who brought you pain. Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other person s perspective 视角). You may realize that he or she-was acting out of ignorance (无知) , fear - even love. To gain perspective, you may want to write a letter to yourself from that person s point of view.29. The text is mainly written to explain _.A. how to keep yourself from being hurt B. how to stay mentally healthyC. how and when to remain calm D. why and how to pardon others 30. According to the writer, what is the right way to calm down after being hurt?A. Try to figure out why you get hurt.B. Write a letter to the person who hurt you.C. Persuade yourself to accept what others have done to you.D. Think about pleasant things and forget about the hurt.31. Dr. Luskin advises us not to wait for an apology after being hurt because _.A. we are not patient enough B. we d feel worse accepting others apology C. people seldom want to apologize D. people don t mean it when they apologizeDIt is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents. They say that their parents dont understand them. They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways, that they are too serious and too strict with their children and that they seldom give their children a free hand. It is true that parents often find it difficult to win their childrens trust and they tend(倾向) to forget how they themselves felt when they are young. For example, young people like to act on the spot(立即) without much thinking. It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation. Old people worry more easily. Most of them plan things in advance, at least in the back of their minds, and do not like their plans to be upset(扰乱) by something unexpected. When you want your parents to let you do something, you will have better success if you ask before you really start doing it. Young people often make their parents angry with their choices in clothes, in entertainment(娱乐) and in music. But they do not mean to cause any trouble: It is just that they feel cut off from the older peoples world, into which they have not yet been accepted. Thats why young people want to make a new culture of their own, and if their parents dont like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speck, this will make the young people extremely happy. Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want to your parents to say “yes” to what you do. All you want is to be left alone and do what you like. It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents control. If you prefer to control your life, youd better win your parents over and try to get them to understand you. If your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility(责任), they will certainly give you the right to do what you want to do.32. _ are to blame for the quarrels between parents and their children according to this article.A. Parents B. Young people C. Neither parents nor their children D. Both parents and their children33. Young people like to have clothes, entertainment and music in their way, because_A. they want to make their parents happyB. they try to get their parents to believe themC. they want to try on something new and look different from the olderD. they want to try test whether they are cleverest than old people34. According to the text, young people want to make a new culture of their own, because _ A. they dont feel they belong to the world of the old peopleB. they do not want to get into troubleC. they feel they are as clever as old peopleD. they want to show they have grown up35. If a young man intends to control his own life. Its better for him to _A. do everything according to his own wishB. do everything the way his parents doC. do everything beyond his parents controlD. hold himself responsible for everything he does第二节：根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）EEven if you think that your parents are mean-spirited at times， loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life.
