20、e yoga, you no longer just practice it you love it. Yoga becomes part of your physical life. Your body grows stronger, more toned(有弹性的) , and more flexible as you move from one pose to another. I spent a week in Mexico at a yoga retreat, and it was the first vacation on which I lost weight. “Rather
21、than building muscles, yoga builds muscle tone,” says Shakta Kaur Khalsa, author of K.I.S.S. Guide to Yoga. “Because yoga helps maintain a balanced metabolism(新陈代谢), and it also helps to control weight. Additionally, yoga stretches muscles lengthwise, causing fat around the cells disappear, thus los
22、ing weight.”I do yoga poses throughout the day. After hours at my computer, I stretch my stiff shoulders and arms. When I need an increase in energy, I do energizing poses.

25、any religious group. Yoga teaches “right” living in how we deal with ourselves and others. As I work on a difficult pose, I learn patience, forgiveness, and the value of gentleness.

28、 China - Chinese leaders announced on Thursday that they would officially end the countrys “one-child policy,” allowing couples to have two children instead. The policy, which was designed to help curb the countrys population growth, has been one of the most controversial policies of the last centur
29、y. Heres what you need to know now that the policy is on its way out. Under Chairman Mao Zedongs rule between 1949 and 1976, Chinas population nearly doubled to 940 million people. That spike, combined with growing fears of global overpopulation, inspired Chinas leaders to attempt to slow further gr
30、owth. China established the one-child policy in 1979. The “one-child” label itself is a bit of a misnomer. While urban families have largely been limited to one child, many couples were given exceptions, including ethnic minorities, rural families whose first child was a daughter and couples who wer
31、e both only children. Still, for decades anyone who exceeded the birth limits was subject to escalating fines, as well as forced sterilizations(不孕) and abortions(流产) . Chinese leaders and experts now see the policy as fueling massive economic and social problems. Limiting births has contributed to u
32、nfavorable demographics(人口统计资料), with a shrinking number of people supporting an ever-growing retired population. The countrys economy once benefited from a “demographic dividend(红利,股息)” of a swollen working-age population, but China is starting to pay that debt down in the form of slowing growth an
33、d higher spending on health and retirements. On top of age imbalances, the policy has also helped fuel an enormous sex-ratio imbalance: Experts predict that by 2020 China will have 30 million more marriage-age men than women. Traditional preferences for boys meant that families limited to one or two
34、 children often practiced illegal sex-selective abortions or abandoned newborn daughters. Authorities fear the resulting generation of bachelors could contribute to crime and social instability. The Chinese Communist Party said it would allow for second children in all families, but further details
35、on timing and regulations for “excess births” havent been announced. This is the latest and most decisive in a progressive series of steps to loosen the policy - most notably, a change in 2013 allowed couples to have an extra child if either parent was an only child. 28. Which is the closest meaning
36、 of the underlined word “curb” in para.1 ? A. advance B. cut C. control D. speed 29. Which was not the exception that a couple could have a second child before now ? A. If they are ethnic minorities B. If they are families whose first child was a daughter C. If either parent was an only child D. If
37、they are couples who were both only children. 30. Why do experts predict that by 2020 China will have 30 million more marriage-age men than women? A. Due to peoples age imbalances B. Due to peoples practice of illegal sex-selective abortions C. Due to peoples abandoning their newborn babies D. Due t
38、o peoples traditional preferences for boys 31. Which may be the economic problem fueled by the policy? A. A growing number of people supporting an ever-shrinking retired population B. Higher spending on health and retirements C. Crime and social instability D. An enormous sex-ratio imbalance Passage
39、 DNo one gets through life without experiencing many disappointments. Strangely, though, most people seem unprepared for disappointment and react to it in negative ways. They feel depressed or try to escape from their troubles instead of using disappointment as an opportunity for growth. One negativ
40、e reaction to disappointment is depression. A woman trying to win a promotion, for example, works hard for over a year in her department. Helen is so sure she will get the promotion. However, the boss names one of Helens co-workers for the spot. Deeply depressed, Helen loses her enthusiasm for her j
41、ob and can barely force herself to show up every day. Helen tells herself that she is a failure and that doing a good job just isnt worth the work. Another negative reaction to disappointment is the desire to escape. Kevin fails to get into the college his brother is attending, the college that was
42、the focus of all his dreams, and decides to escape his disappointment. Why worry about college at all? Instead, he covers up his real feelings by giving up on his school-work and getting completely involved with friends, parties, and “good times”. The positive way to react to disappointment is to us
43、e it as a chance for growth. This isnt easy, but its the only useful way to deal with an inevitable part of life. Helen, the woman who was not promoted, could have handled her disappointment by looking at other options. If her boss did not recognize her talent and hard work, perhaps she could transf
44、er to another department. Or she could ask the boss how to improve her performance so that she could prepare for the next promotion. Kevin, the boy who didnt get into the college of his choice, should look into other schools. Going to another college may encourage him to be his own person, step out
45、of his brothers shadow, and realize that being turned down by one college isnt a final judgment on his abilities or potential. Disappointments are unwelcome, but regular visitors to everyones life. We can feel depressed about them or we can try to escape from them. The best thing, though, is to acce
46、pt a disappointment and then try to use it somehow: Step over the unwelcome visitor on the doorstep and get on with life.32. In this passage, the author _. A. analyzes the cause of disappointment B. describes his personal experience in dealing with disappointment C. criticizes Helen and Kevins negat
47、ive responses to disappointment D. offers specific examples of the ways people deal with disappointment 33. From the context, the word “option” (Para.4, Line 3) means _. A. way B. choice C. place D. job 34. In the authors opinion, Helen should _ instead of feeling depressed. A. work even harder to g
48、et better than her promoted co-worker B. stand the pressure and competition C. try to win the promotion by arguing with her boss D. move into another department to have her talent and hard work appreciated 35. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of this selection? A. Disappointment i
49、s an inevitable part of life and we have to handle it in a positive way. B. Life is made up of a series of disappointments and we have to accept them. C. There are two kinds of reactions to disappointment. D. Most people react to disappointment in negative ways.第二节 阅读下列表述,若与 Teens 相应的文章内容相符请在机读卡的对应位
