owned or drove a cart potter a person who made pots and pans the ancestors of the baker family probably baked bread for their neighbors in their native village the carpenter s great great great grandfather probably built houses and furniture sometimes people were known for the color of their hair or skin or their size or their special abilities when there were two men who were named john in the same village the john with the gray hair probably became john gray or the john was very tall could call himself john tallman john fish was probably an excellent swimmer and john lightfoot was

you that they have a skeleton 骨骼 in the closet 衣橱 jessica asked a skeleton in the closet her mother paused thoughtfully well it s something that you would rather not have anyone else know about for example if in the past someone in dad s family had been arrested for stealing a horse it would be a skeleton in his family s closet he really wouldn t want any neighbor to know about it why pick on my family jessica s father said with anger your family history isn t so good you know wasn t your great great grandfather a prisoner who was transported to australia for his crimes yes but people these days say that you are not a real australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners gosh sorry i asked i think i understand now jessica cut in before things grew worse after dinner the house was very quiet jessica s parents were still quite angry with each other her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read when she finished she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to jessica s closet just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor jessica s mother sank in a faint 晕倒 waking only when jessica put a cold wet cloth on her forehead she looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter what happened where am i she asked you just destroyed the school s skeleton mum explained jessica i brought it home to help me with my health project i meant to tell you but it seemed that as soon as i mentioned skeletons and closets it caused a problem between you and dad jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly they re both crazy she thought 25 according to jessica s mother a skeleton in the close means a a family honorb a family secret c a family storyd a family treasure 26 what can we learn about some australians ancestors form paragraph 2 a they were brought to australia as prisoners b they were the earliest people living in australia c they were involved in some crimes in australia d they were not regarded as criminals in their days 27 jessica s mother fell down into a faint because she was a knockedb frightenedc injuredd surprised 28 jessica s parents laughed madly at the end of the story probably because a they were crazy b they were over excited 5 c they realized their misunderstanding d they both thought they had won the quarrel c when something goes wrong it can be very satisfying to say well it s so and so s fault or i know i m late but it s not my fault the car broke down it is probably not your fault but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation you are a loser you have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation however you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation this is the winner s key to success winners are great at overcoming problems for example if you were late because your car broke down maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly or you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers so you could call for help when in need for another example if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person ask to work with a different person or don t rely on the person you should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well this is what being a winner is all about creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens winners don t have fewer problems in their lives they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else they are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents so stop focusing on whose fault it is once you are confident about your power over bad situations problems are just stepping stop on for success 29 according to the passage winners a deal with problems rather than blame others b meet with fewer difficulties in their lives 6 c have responsible and able colleagues d blame themselves rather that others 30 the underlined word remedy in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to a avoid b accept c improve d consider 31 when your colleague brings about a problem you should a find a better way to handle the problem b blame him for his lack of responsibility c tell him to find the cause of the problem d ask a more able colleague for help 32 when problems occur winners take them as a excuses for their failures b barriers to greater power c challenges to their colleagues d chances for self development d science can t explain the power of pets but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure 血压 and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack reduce loneliness and spread all round good cheer any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings for some an animal provides more comfort than a husband wife a 2002 study by karen allen of the state university of new york measured stress 紧张 levels and blood pressure in people half of them pet owners while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic 算术 or held a hand in ice water subjects completed the tasks alone with a husband wife a close friend or with a pet people with pets did it best those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates with pets in the room people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions it seems people feel more relaxed around pets says allen who thinks it may be because pets don t judge a study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits researchers at northwestern memorial hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and were put 7 on a diet and exercise programs a separate group of 56 fat people without pets were put on a diet program on average people lost about 11 pounds or 5 of their body weight their dogs did even better losing
