28、,it is hard to slow down.But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it.In fact,it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be.A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life.It
29、is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual.Some people are not afraid of stress,and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities.Others
30、 lose heart at the first sight of unusual difficulties.When exposed to stress,in whatever form,we react both chemically and physically.In fact we make a choice between “fight” or “flight” and in more primitive days the choice made the difference between life or death.The crises we meet today are unl
31、ikely to be so extreme,but however little the stress is,it involves the same response.It is when such a reaction lasts long,through continued exposure to stress,that health becomes endangered.Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart disease have established links with stress.Since we
32、 cannot remove stress from our lives(it would be unwise to do so even if we could),we need to find ways to deal with it.21.People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because .A.they regard working as their greatest enjoymentB.they believe that work is superior to relaxationC.they
33、are travelling fast all the timeD.they are becoming busier with their work than ever before答案D解析推理判断题。根据文中的“Asthepaceoflifecontinuestoincrease,.Onceyouareinthehabitofrushingthroughlife,beingonthegofrommorningtillnight,itishardtoslowdown.”可知,人们越来越没有时间放松是因为比以前更忙了。22.WhichofthefollowingstatementsisTRUE
34、accordingtothepassage?A.Wecanfindquiteafewwaystoavoidstress.B.Stressisalwaysharmfultopeopleshealth.C.Itiseasytochangethehabitofkeepingoneselfbusywithwork.D.Differentpeoplecanwithstanddifferentamountsofstress.答案D解析推理判断题。根据第三段的第一句话“Theamountofstressapersoncanwithstanddependsverymuchontheindividual.”可知

36、ttitudetowardstressis.A.toavoiditB.totrytoovercomeitC.toregarditasavitalmotivationD.tofindsomerelaxation答案B解析推理判断题。根据文中的“weneedtofindwaystodealwithit.”可知,作者认为我们应该想办法克服压力。BThosewhoareusedtolookingthroughthousandsofbooksinbigbookstoresmayfindJapansMoriokaShotenalittlestrange.Thatsbecausethistinybookst

45、ble.D.Hopeless.答案B解析推理判断题。根据最后一段,特别是最后一句“Thingscangetbetterconsideringthathisbookstoreisbecomingincreasinglypopularnotjustamongthelocalsbutalsovisitorsfromothercountries.”他的书店不仅是在当地的顾客中而且也在来自其他国家的顾客中越来越受欢迎,所以情况会变得更好。作者持乐观态度,故选B项。CAs I stood in a stall (货摊) of Beijings Silk Market,waiting to exchange
46、 a silk garment (服装),I watched in amazement as the young vendor (小贩) pulled out silk nightgown after nightgown for a foreigner,who sounded like an American,but frankly could have been from any English-speaking Western country.The man appeared satisfied when she pulled out a bright,purple nightgown a
47、nd said,“This one,very good.” and probably asked how much it cost,for the owner pulled out her calculator showing 800.My heart was pounding heavily.After all,I was holding a similar gown in my hand for which I had paid all of 60 yuan ($9.39) just the previous day.I wanted to scream and say,“Wait,you
48、 are being taken for a ride”.But I just kept silent.As I moved away from the stall a thousand thoughts flashed in my mind.Should I have just stepped in and stopped it?I may have saved the man but could have brought danger to myself.Maybe I could have pretended to seek help with some English from tha
49、t man and warned him not to be cheated?When I told the incident to some of my friends,most seemed to think it was unfortunate but one couldnt fault the vendor.Everyone visiting China knows,or ought to know,that bargaining is a way of life here,they said.Although I do agree that the man should have b
50、een better informed,it just doesnt seem right that the place,to which tourists from all over the world are brought and made to believe is a Mecca (向往的地方) for shopping in Beijing,should be allowed to get away with such daylight robbery.I still think I should have done something about what I witnessed
51、.29.The underlined part “being taken for a ride” in Paragraph 2 probably means .A.getting a liftB.being taken inC.wasting moneyD.making a mistake答案B解析词义猜测题。根据该短语所在段落的意思不难发现作者想叫出来,原因是他认为那位外国人正在受到商家的欺骗,即该短语的意义应为“被欺骗”。30.The writer kept silent over this matter probably because .A.the man should know ba
52、rgaining is a way of life hereB.he couldnt exchange his garment if he did soC.he was worried the vendor would take revenge on himD.he thought the nightgown was worth the money答案C解析细节理解题。根据第三段中“Imayhavesavedthemanbutcouldhavebroughtdangertomyself.”一句可知答案。31.What can we know from the passage?A.The for
53、eigner is not an American from English-speaking countries.B.Most think what the vendor did was wrong.C.Many tourists visit the place where the stall is.D.Foreigners are often taken in in the daylight.答案C解析推理判断题。根据倒数第二段第一句话中“towhichtouristsfromallovertheworldarebrought”可得出答案。32.What can be safely con
54、cluded from the passage?A.The writer regretted not having warned the man of danger.B.The writer wont buy silk garments from the vendor again.C.Most tourists are not better informed when travelling in Beijing.D.Mecca is a place where a wide variety of high quality goods are sold.答案A解析推理判断题。根据文章最后一句可知
55、,作者最终还是认为自己本应该采取行动去阻止那位外国人被欺骗,故他为自己没有警告那位外国人而感到后悔。DAbout twenty years ago,I had the pleasure of teaching a disabled young woman.Not only was she good at maths and science,but she was also extremely talented in art.She could draw and paint beautifully.When Audrey graduated from university she got two
56、 degrees,one in fine arts and one in chemistry.Not too many people do well in two such different areas of study.Just before her high school graduation,Audrey gave me a wonderful gift.It was a watercolour painting of a mother and her baby.A tear fell from the mothers eye as she looked lovingly at her
57、 child.Beneath the painting,Audrey had written these words,“The deep love from Mother,through me,touches another.” What a beautiful gift!I had the piece of art framed(给做框)and hung in my office.Years passed with many moves from one office to another and I lost the painting.Last year,after about eight
58、 years of not knowing where it was,I received a phone call from a former colleague who said she had something of mine.It was the picture Audrey had painted for me 18 years earlier.When cleaning out a storage room she had discovered my gift.I was struck that the precious gift came back.I knew Audrey
59、very well.When she was four years old,Audrey had a serious disease.Whats worse,her father left the house.It was her mother who brought her up with much trouble.She survived the disease but was disabled.To any other it is just a painting,but to me it shows how a mothers love has helped develop a tale
60、nt and how its power pushes me ahead.33.What made Audrey different from others was that she .A.could draw and paint beautifullyB.was expert in maths and chemistryC.got two degrees in two different fieldsD.was a student in a key university答案C解析细节理解题。从第一段最后两句可知奥德丽在两个截然不同的领域里成功地获得了两个学位,这不是一般人能做到的,所以应选C
61、项。34.How did the author regain the painting?A.She found it from one office.B.One of her former colleagues found it.C.She found it in a storage room.D.Audrey found it for her.答案B解析细节理解题。根据第三段的“.aformercolleaguewhosaidshehadsomethingofmine.ItwasthepictureAudreyhadpaintedforme.”可知答案。35.What is Paragrap
62、h 4 mainly about?A.The authors feeling.B.Audreys family.C.Audreys experience.D.The authors experience.答案C解析段落大意题。作者在本段先谈到重新找回这幅画的感受,接着便叙述了奥德丽的一些经历,也许正是这些经历让作者更加珍惜这份礼物。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。What do the worlds most successful people all have in common?By examinin
