But English is very easy for me. Im good at it. Im very glad 1 (tell) you something about how I study English

12、. First, I think an interest in English is very important. When I learned English first, it was fresh for me. I was interested in it, so I worked hard at it and soon 2 (get) a very good mark. How happy I was! After that, I learned English harder and harder. And I also have a good habit: whenever I h

13、ave a question, I must make it clear by 3 (ask) our teacher.Second, I think English is a foreign language. I should learn it well. I often 4(listen) to the teacher carefully, speak bravely, read aloud and have a good vocabulary. Then practice again and again, never be tired. I think English 5 (learn

14、) well, because it is useful. Besides this, I often read English stories, jokes and easy novels. They help me 6 (understand ) a lot of things. So to do more reading is an important way to learn English well. I 7 (study)for almost three years. English has become a close friend of mine. I hope each of

15、 you will learn English well. 阅读理解A13、“Earworms”, some people call them. Songs that get stuck in your head go round and round, sometimes for days, sometimes for months. For no clear reason you cannot help yourself from humming or singing a tune by Lady Gaga.To a psychologist, the most interesting th

16、ing about earworms is that they show a part of our mind that is clearly outside of our control. Earworms arrive without permission and refuse to leave when we tell them to. They are parasites（寄生虫）, living in a part of our minds.If you have got a earworm you can suffer an attack of it simply by someo

17、ne mentioning the tune, without having to hear it. This proves that earworms are a part of long-term memory. Human have an “inner ear”, for remembering phone numbers, for instance. When it gets infected with earworms, rather than review our plans for the day, or lists of things to remember, the inne

18、r ear gets stuck on a few short bars of music or a couple of phrases from a song. A part of us that we normally do not have to think about, that should just do what we ask, has been turned against us, upsetting us with a request that we never asked for. The mind is an inner world which we do not hav

19、e complete knowledge of, or have control over.Fortunately psychology can provide some advice on how to deal with an uncontrollable mind. Consider the famous “dont think of a white bear” problem, which tell you to try not to think about white bears or to do something else, to avoid both thinking of t

20、he white bear and not thinking of the white bear. For earworms, the solution may be the same. Our inner ear has become infected with an earworm. This is a part not under our control, so just sending in instructions to “shut up” is unlikely to be of much help (and has been shown to make it worse). Mu

21、ch better is to employ the inner ear in another task. If your mind is poisoned by Brittany Spears Toxic, for instance, then try singing Kylie Minogues Cant Get You Out Of My Head. Let me know if it works!1According to the passage, earworms are _.Asongs that keep going round in our mindBtunes by pop

33、ard me carrying two light bags. He stopped right next to me to greet his family.First he kissed his three children one by one and said, “Its nice to see you. I missed you so much!” Then he hugged his wife, “Ive saved the best for last!” giving her the longest, most passionate (狂热的) kiss I ever remem

34、ber seeing. They stared at each others eyes, smiling at one another, while holding both hands. For an instant they reminded me of newlyweds(新婚夫妇), but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldnt possibly be.Full of admiration, I asked, “Wow! How long have you two been married?” “Being together

35、 for fourteen years total, married twelve of those.” He replied, without breaking his gaze from his lovely wifes face. “Well, then, how long have you been away?” I asked. “Two whole days!” “Two days?” I was astonished. By the intensity (热烈) of the greeting, I had thought hed been gone for at least s

36、everal weeks if not months. I knew my expression betrayed me, so I turned away my eyes and said quietly, “I hope my marriage is still that passionate after so long!” The man suddenly stopped smiling and looked me straight in the eye. With forcefulness he told me something that left me a different pe

37、rson. “Dont hope, friend. Decide!” Then he smiled again, shook my hand and said, “God bless!”With that, he and his family turned and walked away together.I was still watching that man and his special family walk just out of sight when my friend came up to me and asked, “What are you looking at?” Wit

42、ried coupleD16、What do you do when you feel unhappy? Do you listen to music? Do you talk to a friend?Maybe next time you feel sad, you should try going outside if it is sunny. Doctors know that how much sunlight we get can change how we feel. Scientists learned this by interviewing people who live i

43、n different parts of the world. In the far north, in Alaska or Finland, for example, the days are very short in the winter. People living in these places say that they often feel unhappy in the winter. In the south, where there are more daylight hours, few people say they are unhappy in the winter.

44、The reason is the amount of sunlight these people get each day. Sunlight changes the chemicals in our bodies, and these chemicals can change the way we feel. A couple of hours of strong light or light from a special lamp can help your body make the chemicals that make us feel happy.Another way to fe

45、el happier is to get some exercise. Just like sunlight, regular exercise helps our bodies make certain chemicals, which make us feel happier. In addition, exercise helps people sleep better and lack of sleep often makes people feel unhappy. Exercise also helps you get rid of stress. When you are ang

46、ry or upset about something, exercise is a good way to get those bad feelings out of you.1Why do people in the far north feel unhappy more often than people in the south?ABecause they cant go outside.BBecause they get less sunlight.CBecause the weather is too cold.DBecause the summer is too short.2H

48、happier.CMore sunlight can make us happier.DNorthern people often feel unhappy.4What is the best title for the passage?AWhy Is Sunlight Good For You?BHow Can Exercise Help You?CWays to Feel Happier.DFunctions (功能) of Exercising More.E17、Teenager Jake Deham was skiing with his family in the US when h

49、e fell over and lost one of his skis. His family didnt know that he had a problem. They kept on skiing. When they got to the foot of the mountain, there was no sign of Jake. Jake couldnt find his ski anywhere. In the end, he decided to take off his other ski and walk down the mountain. But he couldn

Outside his hole, the temperature fell to a dangerous-15 that night, but inside it Jake was safe from the cold. After the long evening passed, Jake began to think his way out. He had to g
