23、, dirt and waterOur ancestors enjoyed the healing power of nature , and now scientists are starting to catch upAccording to research in recent years, just having a view of nature has been shown to improve hospital patients' recovery and reduce illness rates among office workersAlso, exposure （曝露

24、）to wildlife, horseback riding, hiking, camping and farms can be helpful for a variety of health conditions in adults and childrenMuch of this type of research is focusing on children, and in fact an entire movement has quickly developed to connect kids with the healing power of natureObesity （肥胖）Ra

25、tes of childhood obesity have grown sharply in recent years, and this is partly because of reduced outdoor activity timeIncreasing the time students spend learning about nature, both in and outside the classroom, would help solve this problemSuch lessons are often more attractive for students and of

28、cially outdoors, can help ease symptomsFor your average case of winter blues, experts suggest spending time outside every day and, if possible, taking the family to a sunny vacation spot in mid-winterExperts emphasize that you needn' t go to wilderness preserves to enjoy nature' s benefitssi

29、mply walking in a city park or growing in a rooftop garden can make a difference56It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that_Aancient people were not familiar with the healing power of natureBmodern people are not familiar with the healing power of natureCthe healing power of nature works

32、itsDToo many people in the wilderness will reduce the benefits of natureB  A popular saying goes, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” However, thats not really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesnt matter if the words come from so

33、meones else or ourselves - the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.  We all talk to ourselves sometimes. Were usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. In fact, we really shouldnt be so because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit. 

34、; This “self-talk” helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. Be aware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give o

35、urselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying “Good job!”  Often, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in

36、 others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. Or harsh（刻薄的）and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive. Words possess power because of their l

37、asting effect. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesnt pass this test, then its better left unsaid.  Words possess power: both positive and negat

38、ive. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem（自尊）and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.60. The main idea of the first paragraph is that _.

39、A. not sticks and stones but words will hurt us B. inspiring words give us confidenceC. negative words may let us down    D. words have a lasting effect on us61. There is no sense for us to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves because _A. almost everybody has the habit of talkin

40、g to themselvesB. we can benefit from talking to ourselves C. talking to ourselves always gives us courageD. it does no harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone62. The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also timely _A. praise ourselves  B. remind ourselvesC. make

41、 ourselves relaxed D. give ourselves amusement63. The author would probably hold the view that _A. encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offersB. negative words may stimulate(激发) us to make more progressC. people tend to remember friendly wordsD. it is better to think twice before talking

42、to othersCSixteen years ago，Eileen Doyles husband，an engineer，took his four children up for an early morning cup of tea，packed a small case and was never seen or heard of again. Eileen was astonished and in a state of despair. They had been a happy family and，as far as she knew，there had been nothin

43、g wrong with their marriage.Every day of the year a small group of men and women quietly pack a few belongings and without so much as a note or a goodbye close the front door for the last time，leaving their debts，their worries and their confused families behind them. Last year，more than 1,200 men an

44、d nearly as many women were reported missing from homethe highest in 15 years. Many did return home within a year，but others rejected the past completely and are now living a new life somewhere under a different identity.To those left behind，this form of desertion(遗弃) is a terrible blow to their pri

45、de and self-confidence. Even the finality of death might be preferable. At least it does not imply rejection or failure. Worse than that，people can be left with an unfinished marriage，not knowing whether they will have to wait several years before they are free to start a fresh life.Clinical psychol

46、ogist Paul Brown believes most departures of this kind to be well planned rather than impulsive. “Its typical of the kind of personality which seems able to ignore other peoples pain and difficulties. Running away，like killing yourself，is a highly aggressive act. By creating an absence the people le

47、ft behind feel guilty，upset and empty.”64When her husband left home，Eileen Doyle _.Acould not forgive him for taking the children Bhad been expecting it to happen for some timeCcould not understand why Dblamed herself for what had happened65Most people who leave their families behind them _.Ado so w

49、home quietly because they hate their family.BPaul Brown regards leaving home as an act of selfishness.CThose who are left behind will lose confidence and wont marry again.DEileens husband，together with his four kids，was probably killed in an accident.DDo you think that day dreaming is a waste of tim

50、e? Probably so.“On the contrary.” says L. Giambra. an expert in psychology (心理学).“Daydreaming is quite necessary. Without it, the mind couldnt get done all the thinking it has to do during a normal day. You cant possibly do all your thinking with a consciousness (有意识). Instead, your unconscious mind

51、 is working out problems all the time. Daydreaming then may be one way that the unconscious and conscious states of mind have silent dialogues.”Early psychology experts paid no attention to the importance of daydreams or even considered them harmful. In the past daydreaming was thought to be a cause

52、 of some mental illnesses. They did not have a better understanding of daydreams until the late 1980s. Eric Klinger, a professor of psychology, is the writer of the book DAYDREAMING. Klinger says. “We know now that daydreaming is one of the main ways that we organize our lives, learn from our experi

53、ences, and plan for our futures. Daydreams really are a window on the things we fear and the things we long for in life.”Daydreams are usually very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand. Its easier to gain a deep understanding of your life by paying close attention to your daydreams than by trying to examine your sleep dreams carefully. Daydreams help you recognize the difficult situations in our life and find out a possible way of dealing with them.Daydreams cannot be predicted. They move off in unexpected
