8．A．How much sleep you need 
Sleep cycles & stages，lack of sleep．
Getting the hours you need to sleep consist of a series of distinct cycles and stages that restore and refresh your body and mind．
Even minimal sleep loss takes a toll on your mood，energy，efficiency and ability to handle stress．
B．Panic attacks and panic disorder
A panic attack is a sudden surge of overwhelming anxiety and fear．Left untreated，panic attacks can lead to panic disorder and other problems．They may even cause you to withdraw from normal activities．But panic is treatable and the sooner you seek helps，the better．
C．How to stop worrying
Continuous doubts and fears are paralyzing，not motivating or productive．Worrying can be，when it spurs you to take action，helpful to solve a problem．You need self-help strategies for anxiety relief．
D．Generalizes anxiety disorder
Everyone gets worried sometimes，but if you have a generalized anxiety disorder （GAD），worries and fears are so constant that they interfere with your ability to function and relax．
E．What you need to know about anti-anxiety drugs
Under guidance from a health professional，medication can relieve some of the symptoms of anxiety，but it requires non-drug treatments to produce lasting changes and continuing relief from anxiety．Medication doesn't cure the underlying problem and is usually not a long-term solution．Anxiety medications also come with side effects and safety concerns，including the risk of addiction．
F．Understanding stress
Modern life is full of hassles，deadlines，frustrations，and demands．For many people，stress is so commonplace that it has become a way of life．Stress isn't always bad．In small doses，it can help you perform under pressure and motivate you to do your best．But when you're constantly running in emergency mode，your mind and body pay the price．

17．Think about the last time you felt afraid．Was it a fear of height？Did you oversleep on a weekday and fear you'd get into trouble at the office？In any case，you know what it feels like to feel fear．
But one woman doesn't．The woman，code-named"UM"，gave her first-ever interview after years of being studied by a team of researchers．The woman is given a code name because the researchers want to protect her from anyone who would take advantage of her inability to feel afraid．
UM can't tell you what fear is because she's never experienced it．"I wonder what it's like to actually be afraid of something，"she said．The formal name for the disease is Urbach-Wieth disease，which is characterized by a hoarse（粗啞的）voice，small bumps around the eyes，and calcium deposits（鈣沉積的）in the brain．
In the case of UM，the disease has transformed the part of her brain that controls the human response to fear．In the interview，UM talks about an event in her life where she was held at knifepoint and gunpoint，"I was walking to the store，and I saw a man on a park bench．He said．‘Come here，please，'so I went over to him．He grabbed me by the shirt，put a knife to my throat and told me he was going to cut me．I told him，‘Go ahead and cut me，'I wasn't afraid at a11．And for some reason，he let me go．"
Doctors who have been studying UM's condition for years have been trying different things that could strike fear into her．They finally figured something out-increasing UM's carbon dioxide levels．Extra carbon dioxide concentration in the blood is known to cause fear and panic in health individuals．Increasing UM's carbon dioxide levels did manage to give her a fright．
8．The text starts byC．
A．challenging the reader
B．solving daily problems
C．1isting situations
D．giving explanations
9．Why is the woman with Urbach-Wieth disease given a code name？D
A．To tell her case from other patients．
B．To respect her privacy．
C．To meet the researchers'demands．
D．To ensure her safety．
10．From UM's case，we can know that Urbach-Wieth disease mayA．
A．stop the brain from functioning normally
B．1ead to a decrease in calcium deposits
C．stop the brain from responding quickly
D．1ead to an increase in carbon dioxide
11．What will probably happen to UM？B
A．Dying of the Urbach-Wieth disease．

16．Do you like shopping？Or does the thought of wandering round the shops fill you with terror？For some of us，shopping is an enjoyable way of spending our spare time and our money．For me．it's something I would rather avoid．Thank goodness for the Internet!It's more convenient to buy CDs，electrical items，even food，from the comfort of your sofa．But that's not the only reason：price is an important factor．We can buy goods and services cheaper online．But sometimes the problem is not knowing what to buy．This has led to a type of shopping called"showrooming"．
Showrooming is something I've done．I will go to a shop to see，touch and try out products but then go home and buy them online at a knock-down price．I'm not alone in doing this．Research by a company called Foolproof，found 24%of people showroomed while Christmas shopping in 2013．
Amy Cashman，Head of Technology at TNS UK，says the reasons for this new shopping habit are that"people are lacking time，lacking money and they want security about the products they are buying．"She explains that consumers are not only shopping online at home but they are using the Internet in store or on their smartphones to shop around．
But does this mean technology will kill shops？Certainly shops will change．They will have to offer more competitive prices or encourage people to buy more by giving in-store discounts or free gifts．
We mustn't forget that buying in a shop means you can get expert advice from the sales assistant and you can get good aftercare．It's good to speak to a real human rather than look at a faceless computer screen but at least by showrooming，you get the best of both worlds!

3．We regularly hear how important consumer spending is for the economy．The story goes like this：the more consumers spend，the more money circulates in the economy，which contributes to healthy job growth and profits．Keynes，a British economist，went as far as to say that individuals saving their money may actually be hurting the economy．Sounds troubling，doesn't it？
Fear not．You aren't actually hutting anyone else by saving money．Strong economic growth only comes from one place：savings．Not consumption．In fact，economic activity should not be mistaken for economic growth．For example，somebody takes their money，walks into a store，and purchases goods．The store increases its revenue．
But what happens to all of those goods and services that people have chosen not to consume by saving their money？Simple：Other people are allowed to consume them．Think of it this way：When you lend out your savings，you are actually saying，"Here，I am not going to consume right now，so why don't you？"Banks simply play the middleman：they collect lots of people's savings and then lend out lots of funds．
It takes an unbelievable amount of goods and services to construct a building．It takes food，shelter，and entertainment for all of the workers，as well．Without savings，it is quite impossible to finance such a construction．The coordination（協(xié)調(diào)）between savings and consumption is a necessary basis for sound economic growth．This coordination is also why consumer lending （say，to borrow a big sum of money to buy a car） is not productive，in a strict sense．It doesn't increase the net （凈的） amount of wealth of an economy．Those savings could have been used to construct，say，factory equipment．
None of this means consumption and spending are"bad"things．They simply do not make us wealthier．Alter all，the final goal of production and savings is to consume．But to say that consumption is the engine of economic growth is to put the cart before the horse．Or，to rephrase：the consumption of wealth can never make you wealthier．Happier，perhaps．Wealthier，no．

63．What is the author's attitude towards Keynes'theory？D
A．Approving．
B．Reserved．
C．Uncertain．
D．Critical．
64．The underlined word"revenue"in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning toD
A．cost             
B．reputation           
C．interest         
D．income
65．The author holds the view thatD．
A．governments shall cut out banks as financial middleman
B．economic activity is equal to economic growth
C．consumer lending is the engine of economic growth
D．consumption is likely to lead to increased happiness
66．According to the author，which chart could show the effect of savings on economy？B

13．Life learning （ sometimes called un-schooling or self-directed learning） is one of those concepts that are almost easier to explain by saying what it isn't，than what it is．And that，s probably because our own schooled backgrounds have convinced us that learning happens only in a dedicated building on certain days，between certain hours，and managed by a specially trained professional．
Within that schooling framework，no matter how hard teachers try and no matter how good their textbooks，many bright students get bored，many slower students struggle and give Up or lose their self 一 respect，and most of them reach the end of the process unprepared to enter into society．Hiey have memorized a certain body of knowledge long enough to rush back the information on tests，but they haven't really learnt much，at least of the official curriculum．
Life learners，on the other hand，know that learning is not difficult9 that people learn things quite easily if they，re not compelled and forced，if they see a need to learn something，and if they are trusted and respected enough to learn it on their own timetable，at their own speed，in their own way．They know that learning cannot be produced in us and that we cannot produce it in others-no matter what age and•no matter whether we，re at school or at home．
Life learning is independent of time，location or the presence of teacher．It does not require mom or dad to teach，or kids to work in workbooks at the kitchen table from 9 to noon from September to June．Life learning is learner-driven．It involves living and learning 一 in and from the real world．It is about exploring，questioning，experimenting，making messes，taking risks without fear of making mistakes，being laughed at and trying again．
Furthermore，life learning is about trusting kids to learn what they need to know and about helping them to learn and grow in their own ways．It is about providing positive experiences that enable children to understand the world and their culture and to interact with it．
47．It is implied from the passage that it is difficult toC
A．find a specially trained teacher
B．learn without going to school
C．tell the nature of life learning
D．carry life learning through
48．What does the writer say about the schooling framework？C
A．It often gives little care to the quality of teaching materials．
B．It often fails to provide enough knowledge about life．
C．It often ignores some parts of the official curriculum．
D．It often produces slow students with poor memories．
49．Life learners recognize that learning will not be hard if they areB．
A．cautious about any mistakes      B．clear about why to learn
C．careful to make a time table     D．a(chǎn)ble to respect other people
50．According to the author，which of the following is true about life learning？B
A．It teaches a kid how to avoid being laughed at．
B．It could be a road full of trials and errors．
C．It makes a kid independent of his parents．
D．It could prevent one from running risks．

20．Last night was the last game for my eight-year-old son's soccer team．It was the final quarter．The score was two to one，my son's team in the lead．Parents surrounded the playground，offering encouragement．
With less than ten seconds remaining，the ball suddenly rolled in front of my son's teammate，Mickey O'Donnel．With shouts of"Kick it!"echoing（回響）across the playground，Mickey turned around and gave it everything he had．All around me the crowd erupted（爆發(fā)）．O'Donnel had scored!

18．It took 100years，but finally，scientists proved Albert Einstein's theory that gravitational waves exist．
The waves were predicted as part of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity nearly 100years ago．It was the theory of the physics behind the workings of our world and the universe．The idea was that the waves are like ripples（漣漪）in space，caused by some of the violent and energetic processes in the Universe．For example，two black holes crashing into each other．
Now a group of scientists，including ones from CalTech，MIT and the LIGO Scientific Collaboration finally found the gravitational waves．
David Reitze is the executive（有執(zhí)行權(quán)的）director of the LIGO observatory（天文臺(tái)） at CalTech．"We have detected gravitational waves．We did it!"Reitze spoke with others at a press conference in Washington，DC this past week．The scientists announced they were able to see ripples in the fabric（織物）of space time．
What are these gravitational waves？Well，imagine throwing a rock into a pond．When the rock hits the flat surface of the water，it creates ripples or waves．Space time is like the surface of the water．So that means gravitational waves are like the ripples moving out from where the rock hits the water．
It might be hard to understand，but those gravitational waves expand and contract space and time as they move through space．And when they get to the Earth，the waves pass through，and contract and expand the planet as the wave goes by．
It was Einstein who said these gravitational waves should be observable．But these are not huge waves．They are very，very small，which is why it took so long to find them．You cannot see them with your eyes．They are smaller than the size of an atom．
How did the scientists find them？They used a giant scientific tool called LIGO-which stands for the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory．The billion-dollar LIGO project is two L-shaped observatories．One is in Louisiana and one in Washington state．Their job was to watch for these gravitational waves．They have been looking on and off since 2002．
For years，scientists have been watching two black holes in another galaxy（銀河）faraway．The two were spinning around each other，moving closer and closer together．When they finally crashed into each other，it was with such power and force，that gravitational waves rang throughout the universe，like a giant bell．Those waves，traveling at the speed of light，finally reached the Earth，some 1.3billion years later．They are the same waves that the scientists announced this past week．Each of the black holes was thought to be 29to 36times the mass of our sun．
So，what does this discovery mean？
Abhay Ashtekar is a Penn State physicist，who was not on the discovery team．He said："Our understanding of the heavens changed dramatically．"

24．According to the text，which of the following statements is true？C
A．Gravitational waves have been existing for 100years．
B．Albert Einstein proved the existence of gravitational waves．
C．Gravitational waves travel as fast as light．
D．Albert Einstein predicted the existence of black holes．
25．What can be inferred from the text？A
A．The LIGO project costs a lot of money．
B．The LIGO project is directed by Abhay Ashtekar．
C．The LIGO has been watching for gravitational waves continuously．
D．The LIGO observatory is intended to detect black holes．
26．What is the text mainly about？B
A．Einstein's General Theory of Relativity．
B．The detection of gravitational waves．
C．David Reitze's LIGO project．
D．The crash of two black holes．
27．The underlined word"contract"probably meansB．
A．make a legal agreement with someone
B．become shorter or narrower or smaller
C．catch or develop an illness
D．communicate with someone．
