I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those days I didnt earn very much. I had a job in an office. It wasnt a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing. Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didnt have any time for things like that any more. Theres a lot of stress (压力) in my job. Perhaps thats why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling my glass to the top, and instead of having one glass, I would have several. I started smoking a lot, too. I never used to smoke at all.Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldnt believe it. Luckily it wasnt very serious. The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less. He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just havent any time! My job takes everything out of me! Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job. Perhaps I could do something like I used to do. But if I do that, I wont earn as much. I have a family to support. I have to think of them, too.

Sometimes they are puzzled by the different manners, and perhaps they may make a joke about those manners. So when we go to a strange country, we should pay attention to something new or dissimilar. For example, most Easterners are not concerned about protocol (礼仪) in social matters. But there are a few table manners the Easterners should try to observe（遵守）at all times.To start with, put the napkin（餐巾）on your lap. It protects your clothes from food or is used to wipe your hands or mouth when necessary.Hold the knife in your right hand and the fork in your left hand, and cut the meat or fish into pieces as you eat. Always use your fork to put food into your mouth. Use your spoon only for soup or other liquids.Do not put your own utensils (fork , knife, spoon )into the serving bowl （公用碗）. Use the utensil in the bowl to put some of the food on your own plate, and then return the serving utensil to the bowl.Do not spit food anywhere. If you have bones in your mouth, take them out with your fingers and place them on the edge of your plate, never on the table or floor.Do not reach across the table or in front of another person. Ask someone to pass whatever you want.Do not sneeze, cough or blow your nose anywhere except into a handkerchief（手帕）or Kleenex（纸巾）. Then you throw it into a waste paper basket or garbage can（垃圾桶）. If you cough, try to cover your mouth with you hand.29. The Easterners usually pay little attention to in social matters .A. table manners B. how to walk C. how to use a serving bowl D. how to use a utensil（器具） 30. Put the napkin on your lap. Here the word “lap” means .A. a race track B. the front part of a seated person between the waist and the knees C. a suit of clothes D. handkerchief31. Hold the knife in your hand and the fork in your hand .A. right, right B. left , left C. left , right D. right, left 32. Use utensil in the serving bowl to put some of the food on your own plate.A. your own B. a serving C. others D. your hand DAround the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activitiesOf course，there have always been people who have looked for adventurethose who have climbed the highest mountains，travelled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceansNow，however there are people who look for an immediate excitement from a risky(冒险的)activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activityYou jump from a high place(perhaps a bridge or a hotair balloon)200 metres above the ground with an elastic(有弹性的)rope tied to 3,our anklesYou fall at up to 150 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the groundIt is said that about 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee lumpingOther activities which most people would say are as risky as bungee jumping include jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs(悬崖) Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists(心理学家)suggest that it is because life in modern societies has bee safe and boringNot very long ago， peoples lives were constantly in dangerThey had to go out and hunt for food，diseases could not easily be cured (治愈)，and life was a continuous battle for survival Nowadays，according to many people，life offers little excitementThey live and work in paratively safe conditions；they buy food in shops；and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they bee illThe answer for some of these people is to look for danger in activities such as bungee Jumping33A best title for the text is ADangerous Sports：What and Why BThe Boredom(乏味)of Modern Life CBunge Jumping：Is It Really Dangerous?DThe Need for Excitement34More and more people today Aare trying activities such as bungee jumping Bare climbing the highest mountains Care ing close to death in sports Dare looking for some unknown places35The writer of the text has attitude(态度)towards dangerous sports Apositive(肯定的) Bnegative(否定的) Cneutral冲立的)Dnervous(紧张的)第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。(36) _You probably think you will never be a top student.
