52、sh during the 19th century, when lots of people went there in search for gold. Panning (淘洗) for gold has a rich and interesting history. Nowadays some people continue to pan for gold in California. Although it cannot be regarded as a method for earning income, taking on gold-panning as a hobby can g
53、ive you a feeling of being in the old west and get you out into nature.The only tool that is required to pan for gold is a gold pan. You can use a regular old flat pan, but “officially” gold pans are quite cheap so you may as well buy one that is made for the task. Most sold pans come in either plas
54、tic or metal.Once you have your pan you will want to start practicing your gold panning technique. Panning for gold works because gold is much heavier than most rocks. To pan for gold you add rock and dirt form the bottom of a stream to your pan and then gently let water flow through the pan. The li
55、ghter-weight rocks are slowly swept away while any gold will be left behind in the pan.To start panning for gold, first you will need to find a good location. Try checking maps of your area and old history books to find location where there were gold mines in the past. Even though most of the gold h
56、ave already been removed, there are likely to be small leftovers that you can find.

Sports.EResearchers found that walking around with a forced smile and fake (假的) happiness simply leads to peop
59、le feeling unhappier. So, putting a brave face on your sadness could be harmful. The research also found that women suffered more than men when pretending to be happy.Dr. Brent Scott, who led the study, said employers should take note because forcing workers to smile when dealing with the public can
60、 result in bad outcomes. He said, “Smiling for the sake of smiling can lead to emotional tiredness, and thats bad for the organization.” He also said the research showed customer-service workers who had “fake smiles” throughout the day fell into a bad mood and didnt want to work, so their productivi
61、ty dropped.The study is one of the first of its kind to examine emotional expressions over a period of time and compare the different effects on men and women. Dr. Scotts team examined the effects of “surface acting”, or fake smiling, compared to “deep acting”, or making people smile by thinking of
62、pleasant memories. Dr. Scott said, “Women were harmed more by surface acting, meaning their moods worsened even more than mens. However, they were helped more by deep acting, which means their moods improved more by thinking of pleasant memories. ”According to Dr. Scott, women tend to suffer more wh
63、en pretending to be happy because they are expected to be more emotionally expressive than men. Therefore, forcing a smile while feeling down is more likely to go against their normal behavior and cause more harmful feelings.Although deep acting can improve moods a little in the short term, Dr. Scot
64、t says, its not a long-term solution to feeling unhappy. “There have been some suggestions that if you do this over a long period you start to feel unreal. Youre trying to develop positive emotions, but at the end of the day you may not feel like yourself any more.”72. According to the passage, Dr.
65、Scotts study _.A. is supported by some big employers in the USAB. is meaningful as there havent been many similar onesC. examined more women than men for a long timeD. aimed to make the employees more productive73. Women suffer more from fake happiness mainly because _.A. they usually turn up shy in
66、 public placesB. they should be more emotionally expressiveC. they are often treated in a terrible wayD. they like thinking of pleasant memories 74. It is implied in the passage that deep acting _.A. doesnt have any effect on menB. cannot improve our moods in any caseC. harms our feelings in the lon
67、g runD. pleases people by feeling like another person75. What is the best title for the passage?A. Fake smiling makes people unhappy.B. Women shouldnt be forced to smile.C. An important suggestion for workers.D. Why people dont want to work.第II卷第四部分:写作(共两节,满分35分)第一节 阅读填空(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)认真阅读下列短文,并
68、根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填1个单词。请将答案写在答题卡相应题号的横线上。You probably have lists of remember and steps to follow in order to have the best pet-friendly trip. There are, however, a few things that are best left at home. Here are a few things to forget when youre traveling with pets. Forgetting the
69、m will make your trip run more smoothly and more effectively.Time Traveling with pets will take longer and will have unexpected turns. In reality, forgetting about time means leaving impatience behind. Dont be in a rush. Your pets will require more extra stops than you will, and theyll often surpris
70、e you with unpredictable delays. Plan on leaving early and arriving later and youll be right on time.AngerGetting angry at the delay will only make matters worse. Your feelings can add unnecessary stresses to you and your pets travel experience. If you feel yourself becoming out of control, stop and
71、 take a deep breath. Your pets have little control over their emotions, bowel movements, or motion sickness when traveling. Remember to be kind and understanding at all times, especially when under pressure.Work AttitudeThis may seem like a no-brainer, but when you are traveling, leave your work att
72、itude behind. Traveling is not a task to be accomplished; it can be an enjoyable and memorable experience for both you and your pets as long as you have the right attitude.Control Part of the joy of traveling with pets is dealing with the unexpected. You cant control everything and trying to do so w
73、ill only end in frustration (挫败) and anger. Knowing that things will happen beyond your control will bring great relief to you and your pets. Messes happen; accidents happen. Once you accept that, traveling with your pets will be far easier to manage.SelfishnessTraveling with pets often requires an
74、extreme amount of selflessness. Your pets rely on you to take care of their needs, and sometimes you will need to put their needs before your own. Leave your selfish ambitions behind when traveling with your pets. They need your attention and care more than anything else because of the stresses and
75、strains of traveling.Traveling with pets can and will be a joy if you remember to leave these five items behind. It can be difficult at times to handle, but the traveling will go well if you can manage to do so.Traveling with petsBenefitYoull have a(n) 77 and more effective trip by following the tip
