Last week I received a telephone call from a woman who could not
22、 stop crying as she told me that one of my stories had saved her son from committing suicide. In closing she called me a hero. That got me thinking about what a hero is. Was I a hero because I pulled a family from a burning car? If so, how could I be a hero just because I wrote a story that saved so
23、meones life? Today I decided to look up the word “hero” in the dictionary to see exactly what it meant. It read “a person who does something brave”. As I read on, it also said “a person who is good and noble”. That statement impressed me more than the part about being brave. So I thought about somet
24、hing very important. Say I was walking into the local Wal-Mart Store and I happened to open, and hold the door for someone as a courtesy. As they passed me by, I say, “How are you today? ”Most of the time that would be no big deal, but this time lets say it was for someone who was deeply depressed a
25、nd near the end of the rope. That may have very well been the only kindness or courtesy shown to them in a very long time. Having been near “the end of my rope”, after my marriage of twenty years ended, I was in such a condition. I was within hours trying to get enough courage to end the pain and mi
26、sery. When I returned home, someone had sent me a card in the mail which told me how much they would appreciate me as a friend. That wonderful card probably saved my life. That person, without even knowing it, saved a life and became a hero. Gee, who would have ever thought that anyone can become a
27、hero, and possibly save a life just by being kind and polite to others? The best part of all is that becoming a hero is free to all who wish to wear such an honor. 51. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage? A. Why Should You Be A Hero? B. What Exactly Is A Hero? C. I Am A H
28、ero D. Everyone Is A Hero52. From the first paragraph we know that_. A. the woman was just the one from the family I pulled outB. one of my stories prevented the womans son from ending his lifeC. the woman couldnt help crying because I had saved her lifeD. the writer was called a hero who had saved
29、a family from an accident53. The underlined word “courtesy” in Paragraph 4 means the behavior that is_. A. polite and respectful B. brave and fearlessC. smart and considerate D. cute and kind54. After the writer got divorced(离婚), _. A. he devoted all his life to helping the poorB. he led a very happ
30、y lifeC. he led an extremely unhappy and uncomfortable lifeD. he found much pleasure in supporting the homeless BPsy, a Korean famous K-pop singer came, with his popular song “Gangnam Style” which is well-known overnight during the latest four months. As a matter of fact, Gangnam is an upper-class(上
31、层的)community, which lies in Seouls southeast, whose population is less than 5% of Seoul. But for many people, questions still remain Whats the style of Gangnam anyway? What does it look like hidden by the horsey-dance? Here is some information on Gangnam related to the song. 1. Getting the look of G
32、angnam StyleThere are many brands(品牌)in Gangnam. Along the blocks of Cheongdam and Shinsa, its easy to catch the international and fashion-forward brands like Chanel, Prada and so on. Therefore, Gangnam is a hot place for some fashion people. Besides, some home-grown brands are also apples in their
33、eyes, for example, Johnny Hates Jazz. Stores here arent cheap, but thats the price you pay to “dress classy, and dance crazy” as Psy puts it. 2. Enjoying the beautiful fountainNamed the worlds “longest bridge fountain” in 2008 by the Guinness World Records(世界吉尼斯纪录), the Moonlight Rainbow Fountain(月光
34、彩虹喷泉)is 1, 140 meters of flowing water lit by LED lights. Running along the Banpo Bridge, it attracts people who enjoy the view of the Han River. The fountain works three times a day during weekdays, and doubles on weekends, shooting tons of water every minute. If youre lucky, you might see firework
35、s from one of the rivers boats after sunset, which is considered the best scenery of Gangnam. 3. Letting your hair down while trotting(像马一样小跑)If you, like Psy, are looking for “a girl who puts her hair down when the nighttime comes”, then you can trot to one of Gangnams colorful nightclubs. Anyway,
36、theyre good places to practice the horsey-dance. One of the top clubs in the country, even in Asia, is Club Ellui, which invites hot-shot K-pop stars like JYP(Park Jin-young), 2PM and GD & Top, and often invites international singers by cooperating(合作)with overseas(海外的)clubs such as Space Ibiza and

DMost rain forests lie to the equator(赤道), where the climate is often mild and there are long hours of sunshine. The warmth of the land heats the air above, causing it to rise and tiny drops of water to fall as
47、 rain. The rainfall can reach at least 98 inches a year. This wet, warm world with plenty of sunlight is perfect for plants to grow, so the trees grow fast with green leaves all the year round. The trees themselves also have an effect on the climate. They gather water from the soil and pass it out i
48、nto the air through their leaves. The wet air then forms clouds, which hang over the treetops like smoke. These clouds protect the forest from the daytime heat and night-time cold of nearby deserts, keeping temperatures fit for plant growth.Rain forests slightly farther away from the equator remain
49、just as warm, but they have a dry season of three months or more when little rain falls. Tree leaves fall during this dry season and new leaves grow when the wet season or monsoon(雨季) begins. Thus these areas are known as the monsoon forest.Another type of rain forest grows on tropical mountains. It
50、 is often called the cloud forest because clouds often hang over the trees like fog.The rain forest is the ideal place for the growth of many different trees. Most of them depend on animals to eat their fruits and spread their seeds. When the fruits are eaten, the seeds inside them go undamaged thro
51、ugh animals stomachs and are passed out in their droppings. The seeds lying on the forest floor then grow into new trees. 63. The climate of the rain forests near the equator is _ . A. mild, wet and windy B. hot, rainy and foggyC. hot, wet and cloudy D. warm, wet and sunny64. We can learn from the p
52、assage that _ .A. tree leaves are green all the time in the monsoon forestB. there is a dry season in the cloud forest on tropical mountainsC. clouds help the plants in the rain forests near the deserts to growD. the formation of climate in the rain forest has little to do with the trees65.

54、s that you have trouble writing answers to questions you knew just the night before? If so, you likely have a case of test anxiety. But dont worry. By recognizing the problem, you are taking the first step towards overcoming it. Believe it or not, a bit of nervousness can sharpen your mind, allowing
55、 you to perform more quickly. This is because under pressure, the body releases (释放) the hormone adrenaline (肾上腺素), which prepares it for something important that will happen. However, too much anxiety can result in sleeplessness, loss of appetite before tests, and poor performance. Some people migh
56、t feel hot or even sick. If you worry a lot or are a perfectionist, you are more likely to have trouble with test anxiety. Those who have prepared poorly for a test or have had negative(负面的) experiences taking tests may also experience test anxiety. When you feel a storm of anxiety coming on, stop w
57、hat youre doing and make your mind a blank. If possible, actually tell yourself to STOP! This will get your mind off the pressure. Then think of being at a place of comfort and let your body relax. As you continue the test, find questions you know the answers to and answer them first. This will help
58、 you become confident. Talk to yourself using positive language. Make it a habit to replace each negative thought with a good reason. For example Ive studied hard and I know the material, so Im ready to do the best I can. Another thing you can do is to learn to accept mistakes. In fact, they can be
59、valuable learning opportunities. Last but not least, start test preparation earlythree to five days ahead of the quiz or test. After all, good study habits and skillsfor example, time management and note-taking will give you the feeling that you are in control.67. According to the text, people who _
