18．"Some secrets are hidden from health，"wrote John Updike in his poem"Fever"．
I have experienced the truth of Updike's observation．My excellent health kept me from seeing some things-things that became secrets of sort．
One relates to my son Chris．When I lost my health in March，I discovered something I had missed about him．
Christopher has been a scholar and athlete through high school．He has behaved responsibly，engaged in community service．He has had an impressive peer group of serious students．
While I saw these things，I had missed before what I experienced while in hospital．Early on，Christopher offered the clearest and most forceful words about my need to be positive and to fight acute leukemia（急性白血�。瓾e never left the room after a visit without making me promise that I would be mentally tough and positive．
During the first week，he showed his own mental toughness，researching leukemia and learning what the chances were．He even stopped my doctor outside the room，introduced himself a nd asked directly what he thought of my chances．He processed the answer without overreaction．
Christopher did admonish（勸告） me against my choice of words the first week at home．I had moved back into my room from weighing myself，discovering a thin figure I did not know．I announced to him and my wife，"dead man walking"．I thought it was a way to lighten the obvious．He saw it as negativity and was strongly against such thinking and talking．
When I resisted taking medicine sometimes，Christopher formed a"good-cop-bad-cop"team with his mother．Betsy gently and patiently encouraged．He directly and forcefully insisted．He always made the logical arguments for why I needed to take some awful pills．

2．Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people．Shy people are anxious and self-conscious； that is，they are concerned with their own appearance and actions too much．Negative thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds：What kind of impression am I making？Do they like me？Do I sound stupid？Am I wearing unattractive clothes？
It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably．A person's self-concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions．In general，the way people think about themselves has a deep effect on all areas of their lives．
Shy people，who have low respect，are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others．They need faith that they are doing"the right thing"．Shy people are very sensitive to criticism．Itmakes them feel inferior（自卑）．They also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise．A shy person may respond to a praise with a statement like this one："You're just saying that to make me feel good，I know it's not true．"It is clear that，while self-awareness is a healthy quality，overdoing it is harmful．
Can shyness be completely got rid of，or at least reduced？Fortunately，people can overcome shyness with determination since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self respect．It is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths．Each one of us has his or her own characteristics．We are interested in our own personal ways．The better we understand ourselves，the easier it becomes to live up to our chances for a rich and successful life．

29．The first paragraph is mainly aboutA．
A．the effect of shyness on people     
B．the cause of shyness

A．harmful to people               
B．a(chǎn) healthy quality
C．the cause of unhappiness    
D．a(chǎn) weak point of shy people
31．The underlined word"it"in Paragraph 3 refers toB．
A．shyness    
B．criticism   
C．sensibility  
D．praise
32．We can learn from the passage that shyness canD．

How do native speakers truly feel when speaking with non-native English speakers？It seems that （61）broken （break） English annoys them．However，they keep being really nice when speaking with non-native speakers．I wonder how they really feel when doing so．
I think it would depend （62）on/upon the native English speakers．Some people are just （63）easily （easy） annoyed．
（64）Personally（person），I study Spanish．When I hear someone attempting English，I am patient with them because I know （65）how difficult it is to talk in a non-native tongue．I also know English is very difficult （66）to learn （learn），and that increases my respect for their efforts．I'm a patient person by nature．
The situation matters too．If I （67）were （be）waiter on a super crowded day and really  needed to do about a dozen different things，I might become upset at having to wait for someone to struggle while （68）ordering（order）his meal．
There also exists the （69）possibility （ possible） that what is considered as annoyance is not truly annoyance．I might frown （皺眉）while listening to a non-native speaker，（70）but that would be because I am concentrating and listening hard to understand him．It wouldn't mean I'm at all annoyed．

6．In 1988，a company in Ohio invented an alcohol-based hand cleaner，which was meant to be used by health-care worker； when soap and water were unavailable．Joe Kanfer，the company's C．E．O．，told me recently，"there were a couple of other alcohol products out there，but they were really ugly．Either they were greasy （油膩的） or they burned your hands white．"Kanfer took a year and a half to develop this product which is visually appealing and does almost no harm to one's skin．Still．Kanfer lost money on it for more than a decade because people couldn't get what it was for．
T    he product was called Purell．Today，you see it everywhere．My doctor uses it several times during every office visit．You can hear it in almost every office in the U．S．a(chǎn)nd school picnics would be impossible without it．The former president Grorge W．Bush was called a racist for using hand cleaner after first shaking hands with Barack Obama，but Bush also gave some of it to Obama and recommended it as a cold preventative （預防藥）．What was once barely even a product is now a growing product category，worth hundreds of millions per year．
    The rise of Purell makes some health professionals uneasy．Some claimed that promoting hand cleaner may worsen"our culture's irrational （非理性的） fear about bacteria．"Still，the clear agreement among experts is that unclean hands pose a serious health risk，and are one of the main reasons in the spread of infections in hospitals．A 2007 study estimated that，in America in 2002，such infections resulted in more than a million and a half patient illnesses and caused or contributed to nearly a hundred thousand patient deaths-about double the number of U．S．deaths currently caused each year by AIDS and guns combined．
    However，I asked a food microbiologist whether clean hands might have a medical drawback．He said，"We might have a much healthier population if we adopted the kinds of condition that we see in many Third World countries，with poor-quality food and poor-quality water and lots of bacteria．If we did that，we would have adults who were very healthy and have very strong immune systems．Unfortunately，the price that we would pay would be extremely high child death rate．"

28．Why did Joe Kanfer lose money on his product according to Paragraph 1？A
A．Because people didn't think it useful．
B．Because people thought it was ugly．
C．Because it was harmful to the skin．
D．Because it burned the hands white．
29．What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about？B
A．Purell brings in lots of money for Kanfer．
B．Purell has been widely used in the US．
C．Purell is a cold preventative．
D．Purell meets different needs．
30．What mainly caused patient deaths according to the figures in Paragraph 3？C
A．People's fear about bacteria．
B．Hand cleaner．
C．Bacteria on the dirty hands．
D．AIDS and guns．
31．What can we learn about the people in Third World countries？D
A．They adopt healthy living habits．
B．They have poor immune systems．
C．They eat food with fewer bacteria．
D．Their child death rate remains high．
