Sometimes youll hear people say that you cant expect someone else to love you until you
20、love yourself. Either way, youve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky(棘手的). Sure we all know that were the apple of our parents eyes, and that our Grandmas think were great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics, but sometimes its a lot harder to think such
21、nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own minds picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think.
22、 Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat
23、 a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Dont allow doubts to occur in it. It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you cant move past
24、one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves(袖子) and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think youre silly because you arent good at math, find a tutor. If you think youre weak because you cant run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think youre
25、 dull because you dont wear the latest trends(潮流), buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesnt mean its true. The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective(客观的), and to actively convince(使确信) yourself of your positive q
26、ualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting(促进,晋升) a positive self-image. When you can pat (拍) yourself on the back, youll know youre well on your way. Good luck!46. You need to build a positive self-image when you _.A. dare to c
27、hallenge yourselfB. feel it hard to change yourselfC. are unconfident about yourselfD. have a high opinion of yourself47. According to the passage, our self-images _.A. have positive effectsB. are probably untrueC. are often changeableD. have different functions48. How should you change your self-im
28、age according to the passage?A. To keep a different image of others.B. To make your life successful.C. To understand your own world.D. To change the way you think.49. What is the passage mainly about?A. How to prepare for your success.B. How to face challenges in your life.C. How to build a positive
29、 self-image.D. How to develop your good qualities.50. Who are the intended readers of the passage?A. Parents. B. Adolescents(青少年).C. Educators. D. People in general. B.Can dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cat a
30、re worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe for success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swim
31、mingly. Two-thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog. However, it wasnt all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason fo
32、r this is probably that some of their body signals are just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission.In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behavior. They are learning how to t
33、alk each others language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk Dog, and dogs can learn how to talk Cat.Whats interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to develop their intelligence. They can learn to read each others body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in commo
34、n than was previously suspected. Once familiar with each others presence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other. The significance of
35、this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets to people who dont get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.51. The underlined word swimmingly in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _.

39、of lonely old people to determine whether they can improve the quality of life for humans. Alan Beck,an expert in human animal relationship,and Nancy Edwards,a professor of nursing,are leading the animal assisted study concerning the influence of robotic dogs on old peoples depression,physical activ
40、ity,and life satisfaction.“No one will argue that an older person is better off being more active,challenged,or stimulated(刺激),”Edwards points out.“The problem is how we promote(使成为现实)that,especially for those without friends or help. A robotic dog could be a solution.”In the study,the robot,called
41、AIBO,is placed for six weeks in the houses of some old people who live alone. Before placing AIBO in the home,researchers will collect baseline data for six weeks. These old people will keep a diary to note their feelings and activities before and after AIBO. Then,the researchers will review the dat

He has a mind of his own.”The AIBOs respond to certain orders. The researchers s
43、ay they have some advantages over live dogs,especially for old people.Often the elderly are disabled and cannot care for an animal by walking it or playing with it. A robotic dog removes exercises and feeding concerns.“At the beginning,it was believed that no one would relate to the robotic dog,beca
44、use it was metal and not furry.”Beck says.“But its amazing how quickly we have given up that belief.”Hopefully,down the road,these robotic pets could become a more valuable health helper. They will record their masters blood pressure,oxygen levels,or heart rhythms. AIBOs may even one day have games
