Not too long ago I was having one of those days. I was discouraged, tired, and plain sad. My focus was on myself. After all, no one else was experiencing the same trials I was. I expressed my upset state to my mother, hoping for some pity. Instead, she said, “I heard Jamie was having a difficult day too. Why dont you make her some cookies and take them to her this afternoon?” I didnt really want to, but decided that I didnt want to go back to my other problems just yet.I made the cookies and arranged them on a little plate.Then I made a card with a sunflower on it and wrote a small note of empathy(共鸣）. That afternoon I dropped by my friends house. I went to the door and rang the bell. Soon, Jamie came to the door and looked at me in surprise for the unexpected visit. Before she could say anything I rushed, “I heard you were having a hard day and decided to bring you something. I hope your day goes better.” The look that came over Jamies face was one that I could never put into words. It was as if a darkened sky was suddenly lit with the golden rays of the sun；it was as if in that small act, her day was brightened. I got back into the car and for some amazing reason, I felt a lot better myself. That day I experienced the truth that James Barrie attempted to describe, “Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.”21 The author made cookies and arranged them on a plate_. A. so as to show off his skills B. not to let his mother feel down C. to stop thinking about his own worries D. not to show his sadness to others22. How did Jamie feel when seeing the authors coming? A. She poured out all her worries.B She was surprised and scared. C. he couldnt express herself. D. She lit up very soon.23. What do you think of the authors mother? A. Sympathetic. B. Instructional. C. Willing. D. Selfish.B Studying in the US，I find that many Chinese students are too shy to socialize with Americanstudents. They say its the language barrier that stops them. But in my mind，the reasons arebeyond language The first reason may be that these students feel a little inferior to American students，especially when they dont speak English well. Because of the cultural and economic differencesbetween the Western and Eastern worlds in general，some Chinese students subconsciously think highly of Western students. Second，some Chinese students are too afraid of feeling embarrassed. Because of thelanguage problem，Chinese students often find it hard to understand the jokes their Americanpeers make. Some may feel so embarrassed that they try to avoid talking to Americans. There is also a cultural reason. China and the US have very different cultures. Its naturalthat students from these two countries find it hard to understand each other. Some Chinesestudents choose not to watch American TV shows or listen to American music since they dontunderstand the jokes in American comedy or the lyrics of a popular song. That leads to furthersegregation between themselves and American peers. Im no expert，but I do want to give a few tips to students who are planning to study abroadand are interested to fit in. First，be confident. Your foreign classmates are not superior to youDont think of them all as hard-to-reach people. Second，always say yes to social activitieswhether they are organized by your school or your friends. Go to watch sports games even if youare not playing and are just there to cheer for the team. Third，dont try to improve your Englishmerely by memorizing vocabulary. Try to watch TV shows，read popular books，and just talk topeople. Remember，language is not a barrier and it never will be. The real barriers exist becauseyou are not trying.24The underlined phrase“inferior to”in Paragraph 2 probably means“ ” A. junior to B. colder than C. senior to D. interested in25What does the author think is the barrier for the Chinese students in Paragraph 4？ A. Music. B. Comedy. C. Segregation. D. Culture.26What is the purpose of the text? A. To introduce the US culture. B.To attract Chinese students. C.To give some suggestions. D. To overcome the language barrier.27Which part is the text most likely taken from in a newspaper? A. Discovery. B. Campus. C. Science. D. World.C Here is an astonishing and significant fact：Mental work alone cant make us tireIt sounds absurdBut a few years ago，scientists tried to find out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue(疲乏)To the amazement of these scientists，they discovered that blood passing through the brain， when it is active，shows no fatigue at all! If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer, we would find it full of fatigue toxins at and fatigue productsBut if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein, it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the daySo far as the brain is concerned，it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginningThe brain is totally tirelessSo what makes us tired?Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional attitudesOne of Englands most outstanding scientists，JAHadfield，says，“The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental originIn fact，fatigue of purely physical origin is rare”DrBrill，a famous American scientist, goes even further，He declares，“One hundred percent of the fatigue of sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems” What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired? Joy? Satisfaction? No! A feeling of being bored，anger, anxiety，tenseness，worry，a feeling of not being appreciatedthose are the emotions that tire sitting workersHard work by itself seldom causes fatigueWe get tired because our emotions produce nervousness in the body28What surprised the scientists a few years ago?AFatigue toxins could hardly be found in a laborers bloodBAlbert Einstein didnt feel worn after a days work.CThe brain could work for many hours without fatigue.DA mental workers blood was filled with fatigue toxins29According to the author, which of the following can make sitting workers tired?AChallenging mental work BUnpleasant emotionsCEndless tasks DPhysical labor30Whats the authors attitude towards the scientists idea?AHe agrees with them BHe doubts themCHe argues against them DHe hesitates to accept them31We can infer from the passage that in order to stay energetic，sitting workers need to_Ahave some good food Bdiscover fatigue toxinsCexercise regularly Denjoy their workDKING LEARPart 3NARRATOR: As soon as Goneril has got all she can from her father, she begins treating him disrespectfully.

She encourages her staff to be disrespectful towards Lear and begins complaining about the hundred soldiers Lear has brought with him. However, King Lear soon has a friend by his side. The Duke of Kent, who Lear ordered to leave Britain, cannot abandon his king. He therefore comes to Lear disguised as a servant called Caius and asks for a job.(Enter Lear, several of Lears soldiers and Kent disguised as a servant.)LEAR: OK, Caius. Ill give you a trial. And if you prove to be good at your job, Ill keep you on as my servant. (Oswald enters.) Hey, you there. Wheres my daughter? (Oswald ignores the king and hurries out of the room.) Hey. Whats going on? Call him back. Is he deaf? (A Soldier rushes out after Oswald.) Its as though the whole world has gone to sleep. (Soldier reenters.) Wheres that servant? Why didnt he come back when I called?SOLDIER: Sir, he answered me very rudely and said he would not come back.LEAR: I dont believe it! SOLDIER: Sir, I am sorry, to tell you this, but it seems to me that you are not being treated with the respect due to a king. Everyone here, including your daughter, is behaving very coldly towards you.LEAR: Mmm. I suspected the same, but I kept telling myself it was my imagination. Please tell my daughter I wish to speak with her. (Soldier bows and leaves. Oswald enters.) Ah, come here my man and answer me. Who am I?OSWALD: My ladys father.LEAR: Your ladys father? Is that all I am to you, you dog, you slave! (Lear raises his arm as though to strike Oswald.)OSWALD: Ill not be hit, my Lord.KENT: (Kent kicks Oswalds feet out from under him.) And you wont be laid flat on your back either, I suppose. Now get up and get out of here. (Oswald leaves.)LEAR: My thanks, Caius. I can see you will be a most valuable servant. (Enter Goneril.) Whats up, daughter? You always seem to be frowning lately.GONERIL: Is it any wonder that I frown when your soldiers are continually drinking and fighting? I thought when I told you about their behavior you would make them behave, but now I hear you have insulted Oswald. I do believe you are encouraging your soldiers in their bad behavior.LEAR: Is this my daughter scolding me?GONERIL: I have had enough of your soldiers. They are expensive to keep and you dont need them. Besides, their drunken behavior and bad manners are disgusting. You will send half of them away. And unless you want me to get rid of the rest of them too, I suggest you teach them how to behave properly.LEAR: Thats a lie. My soldiers are good men who know how to behave properly. I wont stay here to be insulted. I still have one more daughter. Shell scratch out your eyes when she hears how youve treated me. Men! Get my horses ready and collect my baggage. Ill leave immediately. I wont stay where Im not welcome.

The team won its fourth World Cup victory by defeating host team Japan 3-1 on Sept 6. This has been its first world title in the 11 years since it won at the Athens Olympic Games in 2004.What has the team gone through, and what has made it rise again? Once a world superpower in womens volleyball, China was almost unbeatable (不行战胜的) between 1981 and 1986. _37_. But the retirement (退役) of the players who won in Athens led to a period of difficulty. The newcomers didnt perform well enough and coaches changed too often. _38_. She had led the Chinese to the 1981 and 1985 World Cup titles as a player. As head coach, she “brought in fresh air, using more young players boldly (大胆地)”, according to Xinhua. As a result, young players got more chances to train and play for the national team.But things never go exactl
