C
Once when I was nine, I came down with a horrible case of tonsillitis (扁桃腺炎). I remember going to the doctor, feeling miserable and scared, but also knowing that this man would somehow fix me. As he declared his conclusion regarding my illness, he asked my mother “Is your daughter allergic (過敏的) to any medicine? ” My mom hesitated for a moment, while I was looking at her questioningly. Was I allergic to anything? What if I was? What would happen to me?  My mother said no.
That evening after taking my pill, I began to shake uncontrollably. I complained of a terrible headache and continued shaking as my mother held me. She didn’t seem very concerned, yet I believed I was allergic to the pill. Before I fell asleep that night, I told my mom the medicine had made me sick and I wouldn’t take it anymore. The next morning, my mother had me drink a tall glass of iced tea that tasted funny. Later that afternoon, my mom asked me how I felt. I told her I was doing much better, and that was when she dropped the bomb on me. She told me she had mixed my ice tea that morning with my medicine. Guess what, no allergic reaction. I was never allergic to the pills, but my powerful subconscious (潛意識的) mind, accepted a mere suggestion by the doctor that I might be, and my body acted accordingly.
Most of us have no idea how powerful our minds are, and how incoming information continually affects our experience. When I took that pill, it had a negative effect on my mind. Researchers are finding more and more evidence that what we believe, or expect to happen medically, has a deep effect on what actually does happen. 
In some medical trials, the patients never took any medicine, only sugar pills, but were told they had been given expensive medicine, and their conditions improved anyway. They simply believed they would get better. On the other side of the coin, people who believe they are going to die in an operation have a higher death rate than people who don’t.
What we expect often tends to get realized. The power of your mind to heal your body is absolutely fantastic.  Take care in what information you choose to believe about your health and well-being. Think positively about your outcome in medical situations and allow your power of belief to help you heal.

I ran into a stranger as he passed by. “I’m so sorry!” was my reply. Then he said, “Excuse me too… I wasn’t   41   watching for you.” We were very polite, this stranger and I. Then we went   42   our way after saying goodbye.
But at   43  , a different story is told. How we treat our loved ones, young and old. Later in the kitchen, as I   44   the meal, my daughter walked up to me, very still. When I turned, I      45   knocked her down. “Get out of the way!” I shouted with a frown (皺眉). She stepped away silently, with her little heart   46  . I didn’t realize how rudely I had spoken.
That night, when I lay   47   in bed, God’s quiet voice spoke to me and said, “While    48   with a stranger, you are calm and polite, but with those you love, you are QUICK to excite… Go look around on the kitchen floor, you’ll find some flowers there by the   49  . Those are the flowers she brought for you. She   50   them herself — pink, yellow, and your favorite blue. She stood there quietly and you never saw the   51   in her eyes.”
By this time, I felt sad and small and now my own tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt (跪) by her   52  . “Wake up, my,” I said. “Are these the flowers you picked up for me?” She smiled, “I found them out by the tree, I   53   them in a napkin(紙巾), just for you.

And she whispered, “Mommy, that’s OK… I still love you   56  .” I hugged her and said, “I love you, too and I LOVE the flowers.”
Do you know that: if you die tomorrow, the   57   you are working for could easily replace you in a matter of days. But the family you leave   58   will feel the loss for the rest of their lives.

任務(wù)型閱讀(共5小題,每題2分,滿分10分)
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從下框的A-F選項中選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項。選項有一項為多余選項。
A.Join learning communities and help each other.
B.Expect problems, never be disappointed, and gradually you 'll make it .
C.Anytime is learning time.
D.Get interested and arouse your desire for knowledge.
E.Cover the same ground from different angles.
F.Try to be a good and effective learner.
As a student, how we can learn our lessons effectively is a common problem which is always puzzling us.If you follow suggestions below, I'm sure you'll find the solution easily.
61.       
Your interest in the subject is the essential driver of success.You can' t learn what you do not want to learn.Emotion is an important part of the learning process.If you are even moderately interested in a subject, give yourself a chance.The key is to get started.If you can create some pleasurable routines, you may find that the subject grows on you.You must always rem learning is just like eating.You don' t expect to enjoy your food without appetite.Therefore, you should always try to arouse your interest and desire for knowledge if you want to leam well.
62.__________
Don't expect to understand things, or remember too much, the first time you study them.Think about what problem you will meet with in your study, so that you are well -prepared for it.Never be disappointed no matter what happens.Trust that things will get clearer as your brain comes to grips (理解) with new information.It is like a jig - saw puzzle or a cross - word puzzle.As you start to put the pieces together, or string the words together, the full picture becomes clearer.The brain learns all the time, but on its own schedule.Learning does not take place according to a schedule laid down by a curriculum or teacher.Keep at it, and you will gradually find that things that seem difficult at first, will become second nature with time.
63.       
Your brain is struggling to form patterns to cope with new input from your learning activities.Sometimes, no matter how long you focus on one subject, your brain is not going to pick it up.If you are stuck, move on.Then cover the same general information from a different source, a different book, or a blog, or an online lecture or a video.Try to become a grazing learner, wandering about the countryside, rather than a feed - lot learner, just standing there in one spot, chewing the same bale of hay.The broader your base, the easier it is to leam.Just as the "rich get richer" , the more you know, the more you can learn.
64.       
Take full advantage of the Internet, blogs, and various mobile devices, not to mention good old-fashioned books and magazines.Learn during "dead time".Listen in your car, on the train, or while jogging.Have your learning with you while waiting in the doctor's office, or listen while checking out at the supermarket.Anytime is learning time.Remember, you are learning through exposure, not by nailing things down.It is more like moisture accumulation in a cloud, rather than building a brick wall.
65.      
The "loneliness of the distance learner" is a thing of the past.Join a learning community on the web, where members share their knowledge and experience.Search for the communities that suit your interests and learning style.You will find encouragement, advice and stimulus from fellow learners, as well as from tutors, teachers and coaches.In these communities, you can measure your progress against your own goals, or compare your experience with that of other learners.You can even teach and help others, which is a great way to learn.

A
Last year.I took a sightseeing trip to Washington, DC.I heard a voice say, “Can you help me?” When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended.Immediately, I pulled out all of my change and placed it on her hand without even looking at her.But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want your money.I just need help finding the post office.”
In an instant, I realized what I had done.I acted with prejudice―I judged another person simply for what I assumed she had to be.I hated what I saw in myself.
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant.I left Honduras and arrived in the US at the age of 15.I started my new life with two suitcases,my brother and sister.Through the years, I have been a doorkeeper, cashier and pizza delivery driver among many other humble(卑微的)jobs, and eventually I became a network engineer.
In my own life, I have experienced prejudice.I remember a time―at the age of 17―when I was a busboy, I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school, he would end up like me.
But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am, where I have been ,and to lose sight of where I want to be going.That blind woman on the streets cured me of my blindness.She reminded me of my belief in humility(謙虛).By the way, I helped that lady to the post office.I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson.
56.How did the writer give the blind woman money?
A.In a modest way            B.In a polite way
C.In an impatient way.     D.In a painful way
57According to the text, the writer__________.
A.still lives a poor life         B.was busy with his work
C.was born in Honduras        D.was a native of Washington D.C.
58.According to the text, the author most probably agrees that one should__________.
A.be nice to the elderly and the disabled
B.try to experience different kinds of culture
C.treat others equally with love and respect
D.think about one’s past as often as possible
59.What would be the best title of the text?
A.A priceless lesson    B.An act of prejudice
C.A sightseeing trip    D.A humble moment
