Passage OneCate Siu is from Hong Kong, but shes a fan of Korean television shows and she keeps up with gossip about Korean celebrities on the Internet

25、. Her favorite is a beautiful soap-opera star, Song Hye Kyo, whose bee-stung lips and feminine features she admires. Korean actresses have prominent and elegant noses, says Ms. Siu, a 25-year-old aspiring actress. They look so pretty. So, when Ms. Siu decided shed have a better shot at breaking into

26、 the entertainment business after improving her looks with a surgical makeover, she knew where she wanted to go. In April, she flew more than 1,000 miles to a clinic in Seoul for operations to raise the bridge of her nose, make her eyes appear larger, and sharpen her chin. Across Asia, Korea is cool

27、. From fashion to music to film, the country of 48 million people is redefining style. And as notions of Korean beauty become popularized by the countrys exploding cultural exports, women from around the region and some men, too are flocking to Seoul to have their faces remodeled. A lot of my patien

28、ts bring a picture of a Korean star from a magazine and say, I want to look like that, says Chung Jong Pil, a surgeon who runs the Cinderella Plastic Surgery Clinic in a fashionable Seoul neighborhood. Dr. Chung estimates that just under ten percent of his customers come from overseas; the rest are

29、locals. Most of the foreign visitors come from China, he says. Jung Dong Hak, a surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty, or nose jobs, at another Seoul clinic, says roughly 15 percent of his patients are foreign. That number has been rising in the past few years. The increase has been very big since

30、the Korean wave started, he says.1. Where is the article most probably published? A. in an academic journal B. in a science magazine C. in a book D. in a newspaper2.

32、ery in Korea C. more and more foreigners come to Korea for plastic surgeryD. most of his customers are localsPassage TwoFrom early adulthood to middle adulthood, people typically experience a strengthening sense of identity, confidence, and self-esteem. In later life, challenges arise. Income shrink

33、s, work is often taken away, the body deteriorates, recall fades, energy wanes, family members and friends die or move away, and the great enemy, death, looms ever closer. It is not surprising that many presume the over-65 years to be the worst of times. But, they are not, as Ronald Inglehart discov

34、ered when he amassed interviewed conducted during the 1980s with representative samples of nearly 170,000 people from 16 nations. Older people report as much happiness and satisfaction with life as younger people do.If anything, positive feelings grow after midlife and negative feelings subside. Old

35、er adults increasingly use words that convey positive emotions. They attend less and less to negative information. For example, they are slower than younger adults to perceive negative faces. Their amygdale, a neural processing center for emotions, shows diminishing activity in response to negative

36、events while maintaining its responsiveness to positive events. Moreover, the bad feelings we associate with negative events fade faster than do the good feelings we associate positive events. This contributes to most older peoples sense that life, on balance, has been mostly good. Given that growin

37、g older is an outcome of living (an outcome nearly all of us prefer to early dying), the positivity of later life is comforting.6. It is generally believed that _.A. older adults have a stronger sense of identityB. older adults have fewer friends C. there are many problems associated with older adul

38、thoodD. there is a positive side of older adulthood7. It can be inferred from the passage that Ronald Inglehart is _.A. a scholarB. an interviewerC. a scientistD. a reporter8.

40、e things that happen and remember the positive onesD. more quickly forget the positive things that happen and remember the negative ones10. The research results mentioned in the text can contribute to a more _ attitude toward older adulthood.A. pessimisticB. optimisticC. dubiousD. uncertainPassage T

41、hreeToday, in the hospital, surgeons and physicians have equal status. The studies of internal medicine and surgery seem supplementary to each other and are therefore treated equally. We may easily take it for granted that it was the same in the past. In fact, historically speaking, internal medicin

42、e and surgery had quite different histories, reputations and professions.In the middle ages, in order to become a physician, one must study in a university first in liberal arts for five years, then in medicine for four years. After the long study was finished, he had to pass strict exams to graduat

43、e. He then had to obtain a license in order to begin his practice. In other words, physicians should learn from the books. A true doctor was believed to treat patients with remedies, i.e., medicine, instead of giving physical intervention. Physicians were held in high regard.Surgeons were not ranked

44、 as high as physicians. Their profession was viewed as a “trade” (i.e. an occupation, especially one requiring skilled labor; craft), not as an “art”. Clerics used to help ill people, which was a natural calling of the Christian doctrine. But their help usually came in the form of religious prayer,

45、and care for patients. They were forbidden to perform surgery because they were not to “spill blood”. Medical doctors, or physicians, looked down upon the profession as a “trade” beneath them and were unwilling to perform surgeries. The most suitable person for the performance of surgery was the bar

46、ber, who often dealt with small cuts when they were giving a close shave. They were prepared with bandage and styptics (drugs used to stop bleeding). So when someone had an injury, or an ailment that required cutting, the barber was the most skilled person he was a tradesman with the necessary skill

47、s. Thus the profession was often called the barber surgeon.11. It is a popular illusion that _.A. surgeons and physician have equal statusB. surgeons and physician enjoyed equal status C. the studies of internal medicine and surgery are treated equallyD. internal medicine and surgery had different r

48、eputations12. Which of the following statements about a physician in the middle ages is FALSE?A. A physician must study 9 years in a university.B. It was hard to become a physician.C. A physician was highly reputed.D. A physician was forbidden to operate on patients. 13. What can be known about “cle

49、rics” in the past from the passage?A. They could perform surgery.B. It was their mission to help ill people.C. They helped physicians to cure diseases.D. They spilled blood when necessary.14. What can be known about barbers in the past from the passage?A. They were not held in high regard.B. They we

50、re respectable members of the society.C. They tried different types of work.D. They tried to become physicians.15. What might be discussed in the following paragraphs?A. The earnings of physicians and surgeons.B. The different lifestyles of physicians and surgeons.C. The different status of physicia

51、ns and surgeons.D. The different contributions of physicians and surgeons.Passage FourA brush with death can actually improve a persons outlook on life. That, at least, was one of the major findings of a study of some 200 people who come close to dying. Some had come through heart attack; some had f

52、allen, come close to drowning; or survived a terrible car wreck, yet despite the variety of circumstances, they reported strikingly similar reactions to their experiences.Perhaps most surprisingly, many said they were less frightened of death now than they were before. Like most people, before their

53、 near-death incidents many had thought death would be painful, the ultimate horrorbut they didnt find it was.Surviving a nearly fatal experience also gave many people a sense of invulnerability（不会受伤害）that made them feel special and even religious. Several believed they had been saved because they we

54、re to fulfill some special mission in the remainder of their lives.Perhaps not so surprisingly, these survivors also reported an increased zest for life and a determination to enjoy life more.A few of the survivors did report negative reactions to their experience. A dozen said they felt more vulner

55、able, and some even felt a sense of helplessness and a loss of control over their lives. Some had becomephobicabout activities associated with the accident; for example, several said they could no longer swim for fear of drowning.Yet most of those interviewees said they came away with a strong sense

56、 of renewal or rebirth. In studying their reactions researchers have concluded that these people have come to understand the relationship of life and death better and more intimately than most of us, that they have come to understand how life is actually defined by death. Life is given meaning by th

57、e fact that it will end someday.16.What have you learned about the effects of near-death experiences on the survivors life? A. They differ due to the variety of circumstances.B. They vary greatly from person to person.C. They are mostly positive in terms of their outlook on life.D. They are neither

Near-Death Accidents and their Survivors.19.The positive effect of near-death experience was that _.A. some people loved life better because they realized its new meaningB. some people got a sense of vulnerability and became religiousC. some peo

60、ple were no longer afraid of death just because they proved to be religiousD. some people wanted to seek extreme happiness because they knew life was too limited20.Which effect of the near-death experience was the one that people had least expected?A. Some people felt more vulnerable.B. Some people
