Loading the car with the stuff of our four youngsters was hardly my idea of fun. But precisely on
schedule—I had performed that miracle. Perfect plans! With our vacation on Lake Michigan now over, I
hurried back into the cottage to find my wife Evi e sweeping the last of the sand from the floor.
“
It's six - thirty — time to leave,” I said. “ Where are the kids?” “I let them run down to the beach for
one last look.”I was annoyed. Why had we bothered to rise at dawn if we weren't to get rolling before the
worst of the traffic hit? They had only to relax in the car while I alone fought the long road home.
I walked with long steps to the beach. There, I spotted my four youngsters had discarded their shoes and
were tiptoeing into the water, laughing each time a wave broke over their legs. With the firmness of a father,
I cupped my hands to my mouth to order them to stop. But somehow the scolding words stopped short of my
lips. The longer I watched, more magical the scene seemed, for it would never be copied.
What changes might we expect after the passing of another year, another ten years? The only reality
was this moment, this glistening beach and these children with their laughter mixed with the wind and the
waves. Why had I rushed from the cottage to scold them? Simply in the mood to nag because a long day's
drive lay ahead? How could I hope to maintain communication with my children, now and later, if I failed
to keep youthful memories alive? My daughters were signaling to me to join them, and instantly, I ran to
them.
Today, years later, my heart still warms to recall our young children's laughter that day. And not
infrequently, when they recollected their fondest memories, those few long- ago moments are among their
most precious.

When I asked my 15- year- old cousin about her ideal occupation, she gave me an unusual answer,
saying that she dreams of becoming an online celebrity, which reminded me of a new girl band called“
Sunshine”. These teens have quickly got an ill fame across China because of their“ unattractive” and“ fat”
appearance and laughably bad singing skills. But rather than wither at the offence coming from their 430,000
followers on Weibo, they seem to bloom on the criticism.
And following Sunshine's explosion, numerous new bands like“ Power Girls” and “ Love- wings”
starring average- looking adolescent girls started popping up on people's mobiles. Lots of ordinary,
disadvantaged Chinese teens with no skills but big dreams have looked to unlikely role models such as the
Sunshine girls as proof that all it takes is a little self- confidence to get your name in the headlines. It's
incredible to witness so many young Chinese girls make spectacles of themselves online in a desperate
attempt to stand out from thousands of potential stars.
This kind of grassroots self- promotion is fantastic for Chinese youth who may not otherwise have any
opportunities or privileges to be outstanding in China's competitive society, but for those well- educated kids,
there is a rising concern among parents that social networking is distracting them from academics.
Sadly, these so- called stars quickly disappear from people's attention once a new band pops up. Besides,
they are likely to leave behind the online record of their ridiculous and sometimes scandalous behavior.
Prospective employers and even potential husbands or wives will eventually see these photos and videos,
which could affect their futures.
The good news is that, in today's Internet age, fame and fortune are easily attainable for otherwise
unqualified kids, but the bad news is that their narcissistic (自恋的) addictions to social media will interfere
with learning knowledge and real- life skills, leaving an entire generation of wired youth with absolutely no
other alternative once their online followers forget about them.

8. What does the underlined word“ wither” in paragraph 1 mean?
A Fade.
C. Tease.
B. Prosper.
D. Please.

9. Why does becoming an online celebrity rise among the youth?
A. Because it just needs self- confidence.
B. Because they are skilled at performance.
C. Because they don't concentrate on academics.
D. Because it is a possible chance to get them ahead.

0. What suffering may so- called stars face?
A. They may lose their wealth.
B. They may get their future ruined.
C. They may be sick of people's concern.
D. They may be laughed at by their future employees.
1. What does the author imply in the last paragraph?
A. Times change nothing
B. Qualifications bring fortune.
D. An addiction can affect a whole generation.
C. A trend can stimulate learning.

Getting angry doesn't just hurt our mental health, it's also damaging to our hearts and gastrointestinal (
胃肠的) systems, according to recent research. Of course, it's a common emotion that everyone feels — few
of us stay serene when a driver cuts us off or a boss makes us stay late. But getting mad too often or for too
long can cause problems.
One recent study looked at anger's effects on the heart. It found that anger can raise the risk of heart
attacks because it impairs the functioning of blood vessels. Researchers examined the impact of three
different emotions on the heart: anger, anxiety and sadness. One participant group did a task that made them
angry, another did one that made them anxious, while a third did an exercise designed to induce sadness. The
scientists then tested the functioning of the blood vessels in each participant, and they found that those in the
angry group had worse blood flow than those in the others; their blood vessels didn't expand as much.
Doctors are also gaining a better understanding of how anger affects our gastrointestinal system. When
someone becomes angry, the body produces numerous proteins and hormones that increase inflammation (
炎症) in the body. Chronic in flammation can raise your risk of many diseases. The body's sympathetic
nervous system —— or“ fight or flight” system—— is also activated, which shunts blood away from the gut
to major muscles. This slows down movement in the GI tract, which can lead to problems like constipation
(便秘).
“
If you have an angry conversation every now and again or you get upset every now and again, that's
within the normal human experience,” says Antonia Seligowski, a professor at Massachusetts General
Hospital.“ When a negative emotion is prolonged, when you' re really having a lot more of it and maybe more
intensely, that's where it's bad for your health.” Her group is looking at whether mental- health treatments,
like certain types of talk therapy or breathing exercises, may also be able to improve some of the physical
problems caused by anger.

2. Why does the author mention“ the driver” and “ the boss” in paragraph 1?
A. To show that anger only happens at work.
B. To illustrate that anger is a shared emotion.
C. To suggest that only outside events cause anger.
D. To indicate that anger is often aimed at people in charge.
3. What do we know about anger from paragraph 2 and paragraph 3?
3
A. It improves blood flow.
C. It enhances digestive movement.
system.
B. It increases nutrient absorption.
D. It triggers the body's sympathetic nervous

4. Which statement does Antonia Seligowsk i agree with about occasional anger?
A. It is harmful to our health.
B. It should be avoided instantly.
D. It is part of normal human experience.
C. It should be prolonged constantly.
5. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. The benefits of expressing anger.
B. Mental- health treatment s for anger.
C. Impacts of anger on heart and gastrointestinal health.
D. Long- term physical and psychological effects of anger.

Anyone with a story to tell can write a book, either for their own enjoyment or to publish for all to see.
But how to create a great story?
Start with a big, engaging idea.
Whether you' re writing fiction or nonfiction, you need a concept that will hold your fa scination
throughout the long process of writing and editing, and that will also engage your readers. 36 . Write them
down, chew them over, and figure out which one you' re most passionate about.
Research your big idea to build your expertise (专业知识).
If you' re writing a nonfiction book, you' ll obviously need to deeply research your subject matter in
order to write about it effectively and authentically. 37 . For instance, if you' re writing a crime drama, you
might do research into how the police typically investigate crimes of the type you' re depicting.
