It was a good joke to come up behind a naked boy, and push him into the pool. I made quite a habit of this with boys of my own size or less.One day
19、I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool. He was no bigger than I was, so I thought him a fair game. Coming secretly behind, I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it would not get wet, I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water, and a being of great strengt
20、h making its way by strokes (猛力地划) to the shore. I fled, but in vain. He overtook me, seized me violently, and threw me into the deepest part of their pool. I soon climbed out on the other side, and found myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys. “Do you know what you have done?” they said, “Its
21、 Amery; he is in Grade Six. He is champion at gym, and he has got his football honor.”I was frightened and felt ashamed. How could I tell his position when he was wrapped in a bath towel and so small? He didnt seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word, “My father, who is a great man,
22、is also small.” He laughed at this, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I had better be careful in the future, the incident was closed.56. The writer thought Amery “a fair game” because the boy _. A. looked like an animalB. was fond of gamesC. was of similar sizeD. was good a
23、t sports57. The writer was frightened because _. A. he was laughed at by other boysB. Amery turned out to be in the same gradeC. he pushed Amery hard and hurt himD. he played a joke on an outstanding athlete58. By saying “My father, who is a great man, is also small”, the writer _.

25、or a big test? If so, you may want to play some basketball in between hitting the books. Doctors are starting to find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercise and brain development. Judy Cameron, a scientist at Oregon Health and Oregon Health and Science University, stud
26、ies brain development. According to her research, it seems that exercise can make blood vessels(管), including those in the brain, stronger and more fully developed. Dr. Cameron claims this allows people who exercise to concentrate better. As she says, “While we already know that exercise is good for
27、 the heart, exercise can really cause physical changes in the brain.”The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies. Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement and physical activity show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active. With
28、babies, even a little movement can show big results. Margaret Barnes, a pediatrician(儿科医生), believes in the importance of exercise. She thinks that many learning disabilities that children have in elementary school or high school can be traced back to a lack of movement as babies. “Babies need movem
29、ent that stimulates their five senses. They need to establish a connection between motion and memory. In this way, as they get older, children will begin to associate physical activity with higher learning,” says Margaret.Older people can beef up their brains as well. Scientists from 11 universities
30、 studied a group of seniors ranging in age from seventy to seventy-nine. Their study showed a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week. The exercise does not have to be very difficult, but it does have to increase the heart rate. Also, just like the mot
31、ion for infants (婴儿), exercise for older people should involve some complexity. Learning some new skills or motions, such as with yoga or tai-chi, helps to open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long time.For most people, any type of physical activity that increases the
32、heart rate is helpful. The main goal is to increase the brains flow of blood. And your brain can benefit from as little as three hours of exercise a week.60. What is the best title of this passage? A. How to exerciseB. How exercise helps the brainC. How to get good scores on a testD. How the brain c
33、an change61. According to the reading, what is the connection between exercise and brain development? A. Exercise makes us stupid.B. The brain needs special mental exercise.C. The more exercise, the bigger the brain.D. Physical exercise helps us think better.62. Why does the author think that yoga i
34、s fit for seniors? A. It is easy to learn.B. It can be done in groups.C. It does not increase the heart rate.D. It includes learning new motions.CTime spent in a bookstore can be most enjoyable, whether you are a book-lover or merely you are there to buy as a present. You may even have entered the s
35、hop just to find a shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive “dust-jacket” is irresistible(不可抗拒的), although this method of selection ought not to be followed, as you might end up with a
36、 rather dull book. You soon become engrossed in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spend far too much time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment without buying a book, of course.This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday lif
37、e is, I think, the main attraction of a book-shop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop. You can wander around such places to your hearts content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with inevitable greetings “Can I hel
38、p you, sir?” You neednt buy anything you dont want. In a bookshop an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished browsing（浏览）. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. Of course you may want to find out where a particular section is, but when he has led you there, the a
39、ssistant should retire carefully and look as if he is not interested in selling a single book. You have to be careful not to be attracted by the variety of books in a bookshop. It is very easy to enter the shop looking for a book on ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest best-se
40、lling novel and perhaps a book about brass-rubbingsomething that had only slightly interested you up until then. This sort of thing can be very dangerous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of time wandering from section to section.63. What does the underlined part “dus
41、t-jacket” in the first paragraph probably mean? A. The title of a book.B. A kind of clothes.C. Book cover full of dust.D. Protecting paper cover of a book.64. In the authors opinion, what is the main attraction of a bookshop? A. You can spend much time in the bookshop.B. It has many books with attra
42、ctive dust-jackets.C. It enables you to forget the realities of everyday life.D. You dont have to go for unpleasant appointments.65. According to the passage, what will happen in a good bookshop? A. Nobody will take notice of you. B. You will feel as if you were in a music shop. C. You will find you
43、rself undisturbed and satisfied with your browsing. D. The assistant will greet and treat you in a very friendly way.66. Picking up books that slightly interest you can be dangerous because _. A. you may forget about the book you plan to buy B. it costs you too much money and time C. it makes you br
44、eak your appointment D. you have to give up the best-selling bookDCultural differences in business entertaining include problems such as whom one entertains and where and how one entertains. In countries where status is important, it is not advisable to invite people of different statuses to the sam
45、e dinner party. Americans will often invite people to their homes. However, in some societies the home is considered too personal, unworthy, or too small to serve as a proper place for business entertaining. In some countries there is a “help yourself” method of entertaining done in the home. This m
46、ethod does not work well when entertaining people whose culture teaches them to wait to be asked three times before accepting an offer of food. For example, a Chinese guest went hungry all the evening without eating though he was quite hungry because he was too shy to take food after only being aske
47、d to do so once. In another case, an American woman executive(负责人) was being entertained in London. After having the tea served, the American woman helped herself to cream and sugar rather than waiting to be served. The English hostess was upset by the thought that she was not serving quickly enough
48、.As a general rule, a small gift from your home country is OK. A gift that is tied to the particular interest of the person is especially good. Gifts for children are also well received. Be careful that the “hometown” gift you are bringing to Singapore is not made in Hong Kong. Because many gifts ca
49、rry symbolic meanings, it is always best to seek the advice of a cultural information before selecting gifts. The giving of large gifts, or payments for special service, should only be carried out after talking with legal department in the home and host culture.67. It is no good inviting people of d
50、ifferent social positions to the same party in the country where _. A. people dont pay any attention to your positionsB. people care much about their statusesC. entertainment is importantD. entertainment is not advisable68. The Chinese guest is taken for an example to show _. A. that offering food s
51、hould not be made too earlyB. a “help yourself” method works well in this caseC. that accepting an offer of food should be made laterD. a “help yourself” method does not work well in some cases69. The passage infers that American women like _. A. a “help yourself” methodB. waiting to be servedC. a s
52、low serviceD. cream and sugar70. _ is especially proper, when you are invited to a dinner party. A. A big giftB. Large payment as a giftC. A small gift from ones homeD.

53、。The need for love is deeply rooted in the human psyche(灵魂). 71 Separateness, according to psychologists, means to be cut off, helpless and alone in the world. It is the source of all anxiety. 72 It can be selfish and possessive, or unselfish and giving. Abraham Maslow distinguishes between two kind
54、s of love: B-love or “being love” means love for another person: unselfish love not dependent upon your own needs. D-love or “deficiency-love” is a selfish possessive love which is based upon someone elses ability to satisfy your needs.D-love is conditional. It depends upon whether personal needs co
55、ntinue to be metBut B-love is unconditional. 73 Furthermore, as it depends upon who you are, it is possible only when you allow yourself to be known to the other person.The psychologist Erich Fromm also distinguished between two types of love. 74 Symbiotic union is an immature love based upon the sa
56、tisfaction of needs and is similar to Maslows concept of D-love.Mature love, on the other hand, is a relationship that allows individuals to retain(保持) their independence, their identity, and their integrity. In mature love people can overcome their sense of separateness yet continue to be themselve

Its well-known that burning rubbish, especially industrial rubbish, gives off poisonous smoke and dust which in turn pollute air. As a result of breathing the polluted air, the number of the people suffering from cancer is increasing sharply. Many things in rubbish such as dry leaves, leftover food, etc. can make very good fertilizer. And some chemicals which give off poisonous gases when burned should be sorted, recycled and used again as producing materials.
