I had an experience some years ago, which taught me something about the ways in which people make a bad situation worse by blaming themselves. One January, I had to hold two funerals on successive days for two elderly women in my community. Both had died “ full of years”, as the Bible would say. Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolence(吊唁) calls on the two families on the same afternoon.
At the first home, the son of the deceased(已故的)woman said to me, “ If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It’s my fault that she died.” At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, “ If only I hadn’t insisted on my mother’s going to Florida, she would be alive today.That long airplane ride, the sudden change of climate, was more than she could take. It’s my fault that she’s dead.”
You see that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course—keeping Mother at home, putting off the operation—would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse?
There seem to be two elements involved in our willingness to feel guilty. The first is our pressing need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happens that leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist and where they exist only in our minds.
The second element is the view that we are the cause of what happens , especially the bad things that happen. It seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believe that every disaster is our fault. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood.
A baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and summons the rest of the world to its tasks. He cries, and someone comes to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him , and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we do not completely outgrow that childish view that our wishes cause things to happen.
1. What is said about the two deceased elderly women?
A. They lived out a natural life.
B. They died of exhaustion after the long plane ride.
C. They weren’t used to the change in weather.

4. According to the passage, the underlined part in paragraph 4 probably means that_____.
A. everything in the world is predetermined
B. the world can be explained in different ways
C. there is an explanation for everything in the world
D. we have to be sensible in order to understand the world

People who eat at home most of the time have better nutrition than those who go out to eat , a recent study shows. Cornell University professors Lana Hall and Karen Bunch interviewed 3900 people in the survey. “People who eat less than 30 percent of their food away from home eat the most nutritiously,” they said.
“In general, Americans don’t have nutrient, except for iron and calcium,” they reported. They have the opposite problem——over—consumption(過(guò)度消耗), especially of fat.
The food at many fast food restaurants is often low in vitamins. “People who eat more than 30 percent of total calories away from home eat foods that are generally low in nutrients per calorie,” the professors said. More calories and enough nutrient intake（吸收） are required to achieve.
One of the major health risks is eating too much fat. The professor found than fat consumption became greater as income went up. It also went up in houses where the female worked. This is probably because these people eat more highly processed （加工的）foods.
57.According to the passage, which of the following suggestions would you most readily take?
A.Eat out as many times as possible
B.Eat at home as many times as possible
C.Eat foods with a lot if iron, calcium and fat
D.Eat more highly processed foods
58.What is the result if people often dine out according to the passage?
A. They tend to have better nutrition         B. They tend to have less nutrition
C.They can save a lot of time               D. They will spend much money on it
59. Nowadays, a major health risk that people face is_______.

60．The passage is about__________.
A. Eating and Health      B. The Life Style in Modern Society
C. Fast food in the USA    D. Dining out Lowers Nutrient Intake

There are two types of twins; identical and non-identical twins. Identical twins are formed from a single egg in mother’s body which divides to from two separate babies. Identical twins look the same, and are often dressed by their parents in clothes of the same colors. It is often difficult to tell identical twins from each other, even when they are standing side by side. Non-identical twins come into being when the mother produces two separated eggs a the same time, both of which grow to form babies. In this case the twins look like normal brothers and sisters and are easy to tell one from the other.
　　In the 1970s and 1980s a scientist did some research into twins. He invited many pairs of identical twins to university and asked them to take part in a week of tests. He was particularly interested in adopted (收養(yǎng)) twins who had been separated at birth. He would give the twins different kinds of tests to study their speed of thinking, their speech, their memory, the ways they saw and heard different things, and so on. Time and time again he found separated twins who preferred clothes of the same color, used the same kind of shaving soap, wore the same shaped square glasses and the same colored socks.
　　There is a third type of twins, but it is a very unusual one. Twins which are joined together at birth are known in western countries as Siamese twins.

在短文的空格中填入恰當(dāng)?shù)脑~ (每個(gè)空格只能填一個(gè)單詞)，使全文意義完整、通順。

A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, only to find his 5-year old son   1  for him at the door.

“Daddy, may I ask you a question?”

“Yeah，___2__ , what is it?”replied the man.

“Daddy, how much do you make an hour?”

“That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?”the man said   3  .

“I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?”pleaded the little boy.

“If you must know, I make $20 an hour. ”

“Oh,”the little boy replied, with his head   4 . Looking up, he said, “Daddy, may I please    borrow $10? ”

The father was furious,“if the only reason why you asked that is that you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to      5  . Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard every day for such childish behavior”

The little boy quietly went to his room and    6  the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money? After about an hour or so, the man calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy   7  that $10 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door.

“Are you asleep, son?”He asked.

“No, daddy, I'm   8  .”replied the boy. zxxk

“I've been thinking, maybe I was too   9  on you earlier,”said the man, “It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you. Here's the $10 you asked for.”

The little boy sat straight up, smiling.“Oh, thank you daddy!” He yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The man, seeing that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father.

“Why do you want more money when you aready have some?”the father grumbled.

“Because I didn't have   10 , but now I do, ”the little boy replied.“Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.”
