12、n-minded to changing your path (even several times) along the wayIn high school, I wanted to be a politician. I left my hometown and went off to college in Washington, DC.

28、bravely intheheavyrainC. encouraging ustohave a mind tomakememoriesD. criticizing people for their failing to enjoy everyday life C The poorer mental function seen among alcoholics，many of whom also regularly smoke cigarettes, may be partly due to the long-term effects of nicotine(尼古丁), new research
29、 suggests.“People who are also smokers are at a much higher risk.” Dr. Jennifer M. Glass，of the University of Michigans Addiction Research Center said. “Cigarette smoking has bad effect on IQ and thinking.”she said.This finding may seem counterintuitive (违反直觉的), since many smokers show that they fee
30、l quicker and focused after smoking. Indeed, research shows that improved mental functioning is one of the immediate effects of nicotine exposure. Chronic(长期的) smoking, however, is known to have the opposite effect.Studies show that up to 87 percent of alcoholics smoke cigarettes. Yet, few studies h
31、ave looked into cigarette smoking as a factor that might explain the cognitive(认识的) lack reported among alcoholics. To search for that association, Glass and her colleagues examined brain function among 172 men from the same area, including 103 men who abused alcohol. The team found that men with hi
32、gher scores on the lifetime alcohol problems scale (LAPS) and those who reported a higher number of pack - years of smoking both had lower IQ scores. Upon further research, the researchers found that smoking also appeared to be independently associated with weaker word and space reasoning. Thus, tho
33、ugh smoking did not account for all of the decreased mental functioning observed among the alcohol abusers, it did seem to account for some of the effects, the report indicates.27. What is the main idea conveyed in the new research? AAlcohol abuse should take the blame for peoples poorer mental func
34、tion. BCigarette smoking does have bad effect on mental function. CIn most cases alcoholics are also heavy smokers. DNon-smokers enjoy better mental function.28. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 imply? ALong-lasting smoking harms mental functioning. BSmoking has an immediate influenc
35、e on mental functioning. CSmoking can improve mental functioning in a long term. DHabitual smokers feel quicker and more focused after smoking.29. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? ACigarette smoking is not linked to reasoning. BLower scores on the LAPS are related
36、 to lower scores in IQ. CNicotine exposure results in alcoholics in the long run. DExposure to nicotine can contribute to better mental functioning temporarily.30We can infer from the passage that _.

48、 of things were stolen. And 36 this, one of Roosevelts friends wrote to him and advised him not to take it to hisheart so much. PresidentRoosevelt wrote back immediately, saying, Dear friend, thank you for your letter to 37 me. Im all right now. I think I should thank God. This is because of the fol

50、Roosevelt had such threereasons to be so 41 . This story tells us how we can learn to be grateful in our life.Being grateful is an important philosophy of life and a great wisdom. It is impossible for anyone to be lucky and successful all the time 42 he lives in the world. We should learn how to fac

52、you smile in front of it, it will also smile and 46 will it when you cry to it. If you are grateful to life, it will bring you shining sunlight.
