Its hard to believe, but you can find out a number of things about a womans
25、 personality just by looking at the type of handbag she carries. Below you will find a number of handbag styles and colors as well as what each specific type of handbag says about the owner.Styles:Under-the Shoulder handbags which are smaller and fit tightly underneath the shoulder indicate class an
26、d sophistication. A women working in an upscale office or someone of high status would choose this form of handbag.Big and Bulky Big, bulky and oversized bags are casual and are often associated with younger individuals. These are used for individuals who carry a number of things (binders, books etc
27、) and require a lot of space. Down-to-earth, lower-maintenance women would carry this type of handbag.Designer Designer handbags often cost an arm and a leg and therefore are usually associated with high-maintenance females. Females who are confident and require top of the line accessories will sett
28、le for nothing less than a name-brand designer purse. Guys watch out for these girls, they tend to be a handful.Cigar Box Purses A women who carries a cigar box purse likes to be unique and stand out from the crowd. These women have minds of their own and cannot be told what to do. They are comforta
29、ble in their own skin and tend to be very independent. Leather with Buckles and Zippers women who choose leather purses with lots of buckles and zippers are leashing out their wild sides. These women tend to act before they think and are always ready for a good time. The extra buckles and zippers te
30、nd to signify a bad girl image.Colors:Bright Colors Bright colored handbags like pink, purple, bright blue and green indicate that the woman is fun, friendly and approachable. Women who are out-going and sociable will tend to choose these colors. This is the type of woman who will strike up a conver
31、sation with a complete stranger.Black and Brown women who choose black or brown handbags tend to be more formal in manners and are often mistaken as being snobby or restricted. These types of handbags are often associated with down-to-earth women, who are shy at first, but open up after a while. The
32、y tend to exude a shy confidence, which is sometimes mistaken as someone who thinks shes better than others.The style and color of your handbag says a lot about you. Choose your handbag very carefully and remember you can choose more than one style. You may feel like being reserved one day and the c
33、enter of attention anotherits natural to want different things in life.51. Who is likely to start a conversation with a complete stranger according to the passage? A.

Then we aged, got injured, and began carrying stress in our shoulders and back. In short, we lost our balance.Yoga（瑜伽） is an ancient practi
36、ce that helps create a sense of union in body, mind, and spirit. It brings us balance. I was seriously out of balance when I started practicing yoga in 1999. I had plantar facilities in both feet, and my doctor had warned me against all the things I loved to do: walking, hiking, and playing tennis.
37、I was desperate for exercise. Yoga became my salvation and even enhanced my other fitness activities. I practice yoga at least twice a week, but I consider yoga to be part of my daily life because after a while you no longer just practice yogayou love it.Yoga becomes part of your physical life. Your
38、 body grows stronger, more toned, and more flexible as you move from one pose to the other. I spent a week in Mexico at a yoga retreat, and it was the first vacation on which I lost weight. “Rather than building muscle, yoga builds muscle tone,” says Shakta Kaur Khalsa, author of the K.I.S.S. Guide
39、to Yoga. “Because yoga helps maintain a balanced metabolism (新陈代谢), it also helps to regulate weight. Additionally, yoga stretches muscles lengthwise, causing fat to be removed around the cells.” I do yoga poses throughout the day. After hours at my computer, I stretch my stiff shoulders and arms. W
40、hen I need a boost of energy, I do energizing poses. When I am feeling exhausted at the end of the day, I do restorative poses. Yoga becomes part of your mental life. Yoga teaches you to focus on breathing while you hold the poses. This attention to breath is calming; it dissolves stress and anxiety
41、. I use yogic breathing on the tennis courts, in the dentists chair, and in traffic jams. You should always leave a yoga practice feeling energized, not tired. If you feel tired after yoga, it means you spent the time “fighting” yourself, trying to force yourself into poses. In yoga, you “surrender”
42、 to the pose by letting go of the tension.Yoga becomes part of your spiritual life. Yoga is practiced by people from all religions; it is not restricted to 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, forg
43、iveness, and the value of gentleness. Yoga advocates proper eating, but you dont have to be a vegetarian to practice yoga.54.What would be the best title for this passage?A. Whats Yoga? B. How I Do Yoga Poses C. The Benefits of Yoga D. The Varieties of Yoga55. According to the third paragraph, yoga
44、can help people _.A. grow tallerB. lose weightC. become flexible in thinkingD. make more friends56. People feel tired after yoga because _.A. they consume energy in practicing yogaB. they respond well to yoga posesC. they spend too much time on yogaD. they force themselves into yoga poses57.If this
45、passage continues, what will the writer most probably write about in the next paragraph? A. Yoga as a means to keep fit.B. Who may like yoga C. Popularity of yoga all over the world.D. Encouraging people to do yoga. CYour name made you do it, though unconsciously, suggests new research that finds yo
46、ur name can negatively make you achieve less. Psychologists at Yale and the University of California, San Diego studying the unconscious influence of names say a preference for our own names and initials the “name-letter effect” can have some negative consequences.Students whose names begin with C o
47、r D get lower grades than those whose names begin with A or B; major league baseball players whose first or last names began with K (the strikeout-signifying letter) are significantly more likely to strike out.Assistant professors Leif Nelson of UCSD and Joseph Simmons of Yale have conducted five st
48、udies over five years using information from thousands of individuals. “The conscious process is baseball players want to get a hit and students want to get As,” Nelson says. “So if you get a change in performance consistent with the name-letter effect, it clearly shows there must be some unconsciou
49、s desire operating in the other direction.”The researchers work supports a series of studies published since 2002 that have found the “name-letter effect” causes people to make life choices based on names that resemble their own. Those studies by Brett Pelham, an associate professor at SUNY Universi
50、ty, have found that people are disproportionately（不定比例地）likely to live in states or cities resembling their names, have careers that resemble their names and even marry those whose surnames begin with the same letter as their own. The twist, Pelham says, is that he has believed the name-letter effec
51、t would apply only to positive outcomes. Nelson and Simmons, he says, are “showing it applies more so to negative things than positive things.” The researchers say the effect is definitely more than coincidence but is small nevertheless. “I know plenty of Chrises and Davids who have done very well i
52、n school,” Simmons says. 58The new research is mainly about the relationship between ones _.Aname and unconsciousnessBname and characteristicsCname and success Dsports and school achievements59Who may serve as an example to show the “name-letter effect”?AMiss Smith working as a lawyer.BCharles Brown
53、 married to Sue Rogers.CMr. Watt living in WashingtonDPaula Snow fond of the color white.60Which can be used to explain the underlined word “twist” in the last but one paragraph?ADifference BConclusionCFunny sideDShared part61The last paragraph mainly tells us that the “name-letter effect” _.Aisnt b
54、elieved in by many peopleBdoesnt work with certain namesCmay not really existDis often too small to show DEveryone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? And if
55、 there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile to success, they said. It has a cult
56、ure of jealousy. As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood.” Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green eyed monster” and the UK is its home.Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and g
57、ave each an imaginary amount of money. Some were given a little, others a great deal. Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.This seems to prove that the en
58、trepreneurs were right to complain. But there is also conflicting evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the worlds fourth largest economy. That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer
59、 hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.“It is not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “Its people using their success in a way that seems pro
60、ud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.”Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem. They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires. But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them. It hardly seems wo
61、rth following their example. If they were more friendly, people would like them more. And more people want to be like them.62Most entrepreneurs surveyed believe that .Athe British people hate successBthe British people are hardworkingClove of success is Britains national characterDthey are considere
62、d as “green eyed monsters”63What does the result of the Warwich Universitys test show.ATwo thirds of the people tested didnt love money.BMost people would rather fail than see others succeed.CAn imaginary amount of money does not attract people.DMost people are willing to enjoy success with others.6
63、4The writer of the passage seems to suggest that .Ajealousy is Britains national characterBBritish entrepreneurs are not fairly treatedCthe scientists at Warwich University did a successful testDthe entrepreneurs in the UK do not behave properly65The best title for this article can be .ABe More Mode

Instead, they rent houses outside the school.There are advantages for both. Living in a dorm can increase friendship and cooperation between classmates.
83、 And of course it is safer. A dorm is more like a society, which enables students to learn to adopt to each other, thus preparing for the social life in the future.As for renting houses to live alone, its better for study ,as you can feel free in your own room without being interrupted by others. As a result, you can have more time and devote yourself to studying. But there may appear some safety problems as you live outside of the school.Anyhow, as a student, I prefer living in a dorm.- 10 - 版权所有高考资源网
