It combines and _51_ the results of hundreds of surveys from around the world that have been conducted on life _52_. Most of the findings are predictable, but a few are _53_. The database(数据库) makes it _54_ that ther
29、e is not a strong connection between material wealth and general contentment. It is a cliche(陈词滥调) to say that money _55_ buy happiness, but the old saying seems to be _56_ by research. Many people still stick to the belief that gaining riches will be the answer to all their problems, yet they are p
30、robably _57_. Studies have been _58_ on people who acquired sudden wealth, such as lottery winners.

32、erent _65_. Apparently, people in America, Canada, and Singapore are very happy; people living in India and Russia, not surprisingly, are not happy. Other surveys consistently point to the importance of relationships. Family relationships，_66_，seem to be the key to longterm contentment. The Web site
33、 suggests that _67_ in love and having children are two of the situations that bring the greatest happiness. Nowadays people look to _68_ as an alternative source of satisfaction. People increasingly spend more time alone watching TV or surfing the Internet _69_ spending time with family. Can techno

49、ns: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sports to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre, and music. A newspaper is even more rema
50、rkable for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out, glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many dif
51、ferent readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性) , its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much
52、of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient value. For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that days paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspaper
53、s efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.74A modern newspaper is remarkable for all the following except its _.A. popularity B. uniform style
54、 C. wide coverage D.speed in reporting news75.According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the “same” newspaper is that _.A. people have different views about what a good newspaper isB. people are rarely interested in the same kind of newsC.people scan for the news they are int
55、erested inD. different people prefer different newspapers76. It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers _.A. apply reading techniques skillfully B. jump from one newspaper to anotherC. appreciate the variety of a newspaper D. read a newspaper selectively usually77. A good newspaper
56、offers “a variety” to readers because _.A. it has to cover things that happen in a certain localityB. readers like to read different newspapersC.it tries to serve different readers D. readers are difficult to please78. The best title for this passage would be “_”.A. The Characteristics of a Good New
57、spaperB. The Variety of a Good NewspaperC. The Importance of Newspaper TopicalityD. Some Suggestions on How to Read a NewspaperC I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head. Now I am thirty two. I can vaguely remember t
58、he brightness of sunshine and what color red is. It would be wonderful to see again, but a calamity can do strange things to people. It occurred to me the other day that I might not have come to love life as I do if I hadnt been blind. I believe in life now. I am not so sure that I would have believ
59、ed in it so deeply, otherwise. I dont mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes. I simply mean that the loss of them made me appreciate the more what I had left. Life, I believe, asks a continuous series of adjustments to reality. The more readily a person is able to make these adjustments, the
60、 more meaningful his own private world becomes. The adjustment is never easy. I was bewildered and afraid. But I was lucky. My parents and my teachers saw something in me-a potential to live, you might call it-which I didnt see, and they made me want to fight it out with blindness. The hardest lesso
61、n I had to learn was to believe in myself. That was basic. If I hadnt been able to do that, I would have collapsed and become a chair rocker on the front porch for the rest of my life. When I say belief in myself I am not talking about simply the kind of self confidence that helps me down an unfamil
62、iar staircase alone. That is part of it. But I mean something bigger than that: an assurance that I am, despite imperfections, a real, positive person; that somewhere in the sweeping, intricate pattern of people there is a special place where I can make myself fit. It took me years to discover and s
63、trengthen this assurance. It had to start with the most elementary things. Once a man gave me an indoor baseball. I thought he was mocking me and I was hurt. I cant use this. I said. Take it with you, he urged me, and roll it around. The words stuck in my head. Roll it around! By rolling the ball I
64、could hear where it went. This gave me an idea how to achieve a goal I had thought impossible: playing baseball. At Philadelphias Overbrook School for the Blind I invented a successful variation of baseball. We called it ground ball. All my life I have set ahead of me a series of goals and then trie
65、d to reach them, one at a time. I had to learn my limitations. It was no good to try for something I knew at the start was wildly out of reach because that only invited the bitterness of failure. I would fail sometimes anyway but on the average I made progress.79. We can learn from the beginning of
66、the passage that _. A. the author lost his sight because of a car crash.B. the disaster strengthened the authors desire to see C. the disaster made the author appreciate what he had. D. .the author wouldnt love life if the disaster didnt happen. 80. Whats the most difficult thing for the author?A. B
67、uilding up assurance that he can find his place in life. B. To find a special work that suits the author.C. Learning to manage his life alone.D. How to adjust himself to reality. 81. According to the context, a chair rocker on the front porch in paragraph 3 means that the authorA. was paralyzed and
68、stayed in a rocking chair.B. would sit in a rocking chair and enjoy his life. C. would sit in a chair and stay at home.D. would lose his will to struggle against difficulties. 82. According to the passage, the baseball and encouragement offered by the man A. inspired the author. B. hurt the authors
69、feeling. C. gave the author a deep impressionD.directly led to the invention of ground ball. 83. According to the passage, which of the following is CORRECT?A. The author set goals for himself but only invited failure most of the time.B. The author suggested not trying something beyond ones ability
70、at the beginning.C. Because of his limitations, the author tried to reach one goal at a time. D. The bitterness of failure prevented the author from trying something out of reach. D “OK,”I said to my daughter as she bent over her afternoon bowl of rice. “Whats going on with you and your friend J.?”
71、J. is the leader of a group of third-graders at her camp- a position Lucy herself occupied the previous summer. Now shes the one on the outs. and every day at snack time, she tells me all about it, while I offer the unhelpful advice all summer long. “Shes fond of giving orders, ”Lucy complained. “Sh
72、es turning everyone against me. Shes mean. And shes fat.” “Excuse me,” I said, struggling for calm. “What did you just said?” “Shes fat.” Lucy mumbled(含糊地说).“Were going upstairs,” I said, my voice cold. “Were going to discuss this.” And up we went. Id spent the nine years since her birth getting rea
73、dy for this day, the day wed have the conversation about this horrible word. I knew exactly what to say to the girl on the receiving end of the teasing, but in all of my imaginings, it never once occurred to me that my daughter would be the one who used the F word-Fat. My daughter sat on her bed, an
74、d I sat beside her. “How would you feel if someone made fun of you for something that wasnt your fault?” I began. “She could stop eating so much,” Lucy mumbled, mouthing the simple advice a thousand doctors have given overweight women for years. “Its not always that easy,” I said . “Everyones differ
75、ent in terms of how they treat food.” Lucy looked at me, waiting for me to go on. I opened my mouth, then closed it. Should I tell her that, in teasing a womans weight, shes joined the long tradition of critics? Should I tell her I didnt cry when someone posted my picture and commented , “Im sorry,
76、but arent authors who write books marketed to young women supposed to be pretty?” Does she need to know, now, that life isnt fair ? I feel her eyes on me, waiting for an answer I dont have. Words are my tools. Stories are my job. Its possible shell remember what I say forever, and I have no idea wha
77、t to say. So I tell her the only thing I can come up with that is absolutely true. I say to my daughter, “I love you, and there is nothing you could ever do to make me not love you. But Im disappointed in you right now. There are plenty of reasons for not liking someone. What she looks like isnt one
78、 of them. ” Lucy nods, tears on her cheeks. “I wont say that again,” she tells me, and I pull her close, pressing my nose against her hair. As we sit there together, I pray for her to be smart and strong. I pray for her to find friends, work she loves, a partner who loves her. And still, always, I p
79、ray that she will never struggle as Ive struggled, that weight will never be her cross to bear. She may not be able to use the word in our home, but I can use in my head. I pray that she will never get fat.84.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 indicates that Lucy _.A. has turned against her frie
80、nd J. B.gets along well with her friend J. C. has begun to compete with her friend J. D. often makes fun of her friend J. 85.Why does the author want to discuss with Lucy?A. Because she decides to tell Lucy a similar story of her own.B. Because she is really shocked at Lucys rudeness. C. Because she
81、 has prepared the conversation for nine years.D. Because she wants to offer some other helpful advice.86.What does the author want to tell her daughter?A. People shouldnt complain because life is unfair.B. She herself was once laughed at for her appearance.C. People shouldnt be blamed for their appe
82、arance.D. It is not easy to take the doctors advice to eat less.87.It can be inferred from the passage that_.A. the author earns a living by writing stories.B. the author is a fat but good-looking woman.C. the author will stop loving her daughter for what she said.D. the authors daughter agreed with
83、 her from the very beginning.88.We can learn from the last paragraph that_.A. Lucy was deeply moved by her mothers prayer.B. a mothers prayer will shape her daughters attitude towards lifeC. the author allows her daughter to use the F word in her headD. the author hopes her daughter will never have
84、weight trouble 89.The authors attitude towards her daughter can be best described as _.A. unsatisfied and angry B. loving but strict C. indifferent but patient D. satisfied and friendly EAfter 20 years as a full-time wife and mother, I decided to be a school bus driver for I loved kids. After hard p
85、ractice, by the time school started that year Id gotten the hang of it. I was happy in my new work. I became a combination of chauffeur, nurse and friend. And if the kids needed it, Id put on my “Tough Big Sister” act. It was a lot like my previous job-being a mom. When I think about my years of bus
86、 driving, many things crowded in, but mostly, I remember Charlie. Charlie, eight years old, with blond hair and crystalline gray eyes, began riding my bus in September of my fourth year driving. They all had stories to tell me about their summers. Charlie, though, ignored me. He didnt even answer wh
87、en I asked his name. From that day on, Charlie was a trial. If a fight broke out I didnt have to turn my head to know who had started it. If someone was throwing spitballs I could guess the culprits name. If a girl was crying, chances were Charlie had pulled her hair. No matter how I spoke to him, g
88、ently or firmly, he wouldnt say a word. Hed just stare at me with those big gray eyes of his. I asked around some, and found out Charlies father was dead and he didnt live with his mother. He deserves my patience, I thought. So I practiced every bit of patience I could muster. To my cheery “Good Mor
89、ning”, he was silent. When I wished him a happy Halloween, he sneered. Many, many times I asked God how I could reach Charlie. “Im at my wits end.” Id say. Still I was sure that this child needed to feel some warmth from me. So, when hed pass by, Id ruffle his hair or pat him on the arm. Toward the
90、end of that year, the kids on my bus gave me a small trophy inscribed “To the Best Bus Driver Ever”. I propped it up on the dashboard. On top I hung a small tin heart that a little girl had given me. In red paint she had written, “I love Polly and Polly loves me.” On the next-to-last day of school I
91、 was delayed a few minutes talking to the principal. When I got on the bus I realized that the tin heart was gone. “Does anyone know what happened to the little heart that was up here?” I asked. For once with 39 children, there was silence. One boy piped up, “Charlie was the first one on the bus. I
92、bet（打赌） he took it.” Other children joined the chorus, “Yeah! Charlie did it! Search him!” I asked Charlie, “Have you seen the heart?” “I dont know what youre talking about,” he protested（抗议）. Standing up, he took a few pennies and a small ball out of his pockets. “See, I dont have it.” “I bet he do
93、es!” insisted the girl who had given me the heart. “Check his pockets.” Charlie glowered when I asked him to come forward. His gaze burned into mine. I stuck my hand into one pocket. Nothing. I reached into the other pocket. Then I felt it -the familiar outline of the small tin heart. Charlie stared
94、 at me for a long time. There were no tears in those big gray eyes, no plea(乞求) for mercy. He seemed to be waiting for what hed come to expect from the world. I was about to pull the tin heart out of Charlies pocket when I stopped myself. Let him keep it, a voice seemed to whisper. “It must have fal
95、len off before I got here,” I said to the kids. “Ill probably find it back at the depot.” Without a word, Charlie returned to his seat. When he got off at his stop, he didnt so much as glance at me. That summer Charlie moved away. Eventually I retired. And there my story as a school bus driver ends,
96、 except for one more incident. A dozen years after retirement I was in a department store in Kansas City, when someone said tentatively, “Polly?” I turned to see a balding（在脱发的） man who was approaching middle age. “Yes?” His face didnt look familiar until I noticed his big gray eyes. There was no do
97、ubt. It was Charlie. He told me he was living in Montana and doing well. Then, to my surprise, he hugged me. After he let go, he pulled something from his pocket and held it up for me to see. An old key chain.bent out of shape, the lettering faded. You can probably guess what it was-the little tin h
98、eart that said, “I love Polly and Polly loves me.” “You were the only one who kept trying,” he explained. We hugged again, and went our separate ways. That night I thought over his words. You were the only one who kept trying. Before I fell asleep I thanked the Lord for the reassurance that Id done
99、a good job and for all the qualifications hed given me to do it with. 90. From whose point of view is the story told? A. a mothers B. Pollys C. Charlies D. Tough Big Sisters91 From the passage, we learn that Charlie was _ . A. gentle and smart B.cold and firm C.naughty and lazy D. tough and lonely92

113、ach blank on the Answer Sheet. Science and engineering have varied meanings and different ways in which they can be understood, though the differences are not easy to tell.First is science. This is nothing but the use of reasoning to know how things work and what causes the happenings.Engineering is
114、 about the way some tools, machines, systems etc are made with the help of human resources, raw materials and some scientific techniques. Science is important for engineering. Engineering cant be done without knowing the basic principles of the working of the device that one wants to make. For examp
115、le, if one wants to make a fan and they do not know how a fan works, then it is practically impossible for them to do so. Thus knowing how the fan works is science and making a fan is engineering.Then comes the most important factor, the technology. Technology is always evolving with the help of the
116、 existing science and engineering techniques. It has to satisfy the usage of it by the consumers and safety of the people. For example, science will tell people the rules or the working of the equipment, engineering techniques will tell them how the equipment is made and the technology will consider
117、 both the above factors to create the same equipment but in a different way or using a different technique with some alterations(改变) giving birth to newfound technology. Thus again, science and engineering are important for technology to take place and the people who undertake the activities of scie
118、nce and technology are considered technologists.All these three above discussed factors are important when one undertakes some kind of research work.Some people think that technology is nothing but the way science is applied. If they make good investment in the field of science, then they would gain
119、 a lot from new technology. Thus, people start investing in many new ventures(项目)。So we can see clear differences between science, technology and engineering. New technology is the best way to take a country to a higher economic position and to the path of fast growth. Technology requires the use of
120、 science and engineering as this is the best way to start and put the use of them into practice.
