19．I have to travel every day from Turner Road to the airport．Two buses travel along this route：No.49and No.16．However，by the time No.16reaches Turner Road，it is always full．（36）E
The timetable states that there are buses from Turner Road to the airport every ten minutes．（37）F The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus，the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting．（38）G
The instructions state that no bus may cany more than 40seated passengers and 20standing passengers．Yesterday，I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport．（39）A There were 129of them．
Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says"Maximumspeed：50mph．"（40）DSaturday morning a No，49bus traveled the distance in ten fninutes-at an average speed   of 60mph．At times it must have done at least 80or even 90mph．
It is clear that our bus companies have neither respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers．Can nothing be done about this？

A．I counted the other passengers as they got off．
B．Is there anything we can do to change this？
C．The problem is that we have to pay more for our trip．
D．The distance from Turner Road to the airport is 10miles．
E．I have to wait for No.49which sometimes has empty seats．
F．If this is so，why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day？
G．Why is it that half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop？

分析 本文屬于說明文閱讀，作者通過這篇文章主要向我們描述了我不得不每天從特納的路坐公交去機場是發(fā)現(xiàn)的一些交通問題．

解答 36．E．推理判斷題．根據(jù)后文However，by the time No.16reaches Turner Road，it is always full可知我不得不等49路這偶爾才有空座的公交；故選E．
37．F．推理判斷題．根據(jù)前文The timetable states that there are buses from Turner Road to the airport every ten minutes可知提出疑問如果是這樣的話，為什么我每天都要等半個小時的公共汽車；故選F．
38．G．推理判斷題．根據(jù)前文The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus，the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting可知提出疑問為什么我站在公共汽車站時，有一半的空公共汽車從我身邊經(jīng)過；故選G．
39．A．推理判斷題．根據(jù)后文There were 129of them可知當他們下車時，我數(shù)了一下其他乘客；故選A．
40．D．推理判斷題．根據(jù)后文Saturday morning a No，49bus traveled the distance in ten fninutes-at an average speed   可知．距離從特納路到機場有10公里；故選D．

14．We spend so much time waiting to be loved，hoping love will find us，and looking for that special love．Unfortunately，that's not usually how life works．To be loved，you should love and respect yourself as much as you do others．In order to love someone，you should love yourself．
●Stop comparing（比較） yourself to others．（36）GWe all have different gifts．When you compare yourself to others for what they have，whether it is a car，a house，or a job，it makes you feel bad about yourself．Really be grateful about everything you have．Gratitude（感恩）keeps your heart open to love．
●Practice receiving love．To truly love is to be able to receive it．When someone loves you，does some kind deeds（事情）to you，or says kind words，accept it．（37）E Know that you are worthy of love．It is important to accept a gift of love by others．You give yourself a chance to learn more about yourself that you are lovable．（38）F
●（39）AWrite about your experiences，good and bad．When you write down good experiences，allow yourself to feel those feelings．When you remember bad experiences，allow yourself to feel self-compassion．Compassion is not self-pity，but rather willingness to accept one's own pain and regret．
●Stop trying to be perfect．Stop blaming yourself for being less than perfect．（40）D
Just follow all the steps above and don't let anyone's expectations of you put any pressure on you．

A．Keep a diary．
B．Love others．
C．Do not feel sorry about it．

10．Almost every day I hear a friend-or a patient-talk about being"addicted"to something：chocolate，exercise，email，a TV show．Are these really addictions？No，if you follow the classic definition of addiction．Why？Let me explain：Addiction means being psychologically and physically dependent on something．However，a compulsion is just a strong desire to do something，which you find difficult to control．Though it can be serious，yet you won't get physically ill when you quit it．
Take one of my patients Kate，who often spoke of her shoe addiction，as an example．She said she had many more shoes than she could use or afford，and she found it nearly impossible to pass up a pair that caught her eye．When she was stressed out，she bought shoes．When she felt sad，she bought shoes．If Kate forced herself not to buy shoes for a week or two，she didn't get physically ill．But she was rarely able to resist shoe shopping for much longer than that．
Many different causes are behind the phenomena．First of all，we think there is a genetic component，since compulsive behaviors seem to happen again in families．An imbalance of chemicals in the brain called neurotransmitters （神經(jīng)介質(zhì)） may also be to blame．In addition，compulsions often go hand in hand with anxiety and depression．
 How do you know when it has crossed the line？Ask yourself these questions：Are you busy planning and doing the behavior？For example，are you having trouble concentrating on work because you're spending time shopping online？Is the behavior negatively affecting one or more areas of your life？Have you tried your best to stop the behavior but couldn't？If your answers are"yes"，you may be struggling with a compulsive behavior and need some help．
When you find yourself having a compulsive behavior，you should start by admitting that you have a problem and thinking about what is driving the behavior．And then try to interrupt or at least postpone the behavior．Changing the way you do it is also a good idea．For example，if you can't stop eating sweets every day，try having an apple every time you want that candy bar．Finally，if you feel you need more help，consider seeing a therapist （治療專家），who will give you tools to change the actual behavior．
Addictions or compulsions？

14．Vegetarian UK
Vegetarians and vegans
Vegetarians （people who don't eat meat） and vegans （people who don't eat or use any animal products） are becoming increasingly common in UK culture．（31）D A recent survey showed that three million people were vegetarian．Visit a British supermarket and you will see a wide range of vegetarian ingredients and prepared meals on the shelves，including vegetarian sausages and vegan cheese．
（32）A
So why are Brits cutting out meat？Many are unhappy about the poor treatment of animals and the effects of meat and fish production on the environment．Worries about food safety （for example BES or"mad cow disease"） also play a part．（33）F According to the Vegetarian Society，a meat-free diet could help reduce the risk of certain cancers and heart disease，as well as obesity and high blood pressure．

Another rising trend is in how UK food is produced．Many people are rejecting GM （genetically modified） food and intensive farming practices．They want their food to be organically produced．Organic farmers use very few or no chemicals，pesticides or fertilisers and organic meat is produced without the use of drugs and antibiotics． （34）G
Organic food
According to the Soil Association，three out of every four UK households now buy some type of organic food．Some get organic meat，fruit and vegetables from farmers'markets，where products are sold directly to the consumer．Others have a box of organic fruit and vegetables sent to their homes every week．（35）C Although it's often more expensive，fans of organic food say it tastes much better!

B．A balanced diet
C．Many people buy organic products in their local supermarket．
D．More and more people are deciding not to eat meat or use animal products．
E．A healthy soil reduces disease and helps crops grow strong and healthy．

4．Do you forget to turn off the lights and heaters when you go out of a room？In 2040 it will not matter．They will turn themselves off and on again when you return．You will choose the temperature for each room，the lighting and the humidity（濕度）．A sensor（感應器）will find the presence of a human（and，with luck，ignore the dog!） and turn the systems on，and when the humans leave，it will turn them off again．
The sensors will work through the central home computer，and they will do much more than just turn the fires and lights on and off for you．They will find faulty electrical appliances（用品），plugs or switches，separate them so that they cannot harm anyone，and then warn you that they need repair．They will detect fire and if you are out of the house，the computer will call the firefighters．It will not be too difficult because the locks on the outside doors will be electronic．You will open them using your personal card-the one you use for shopping-maybe using a number known only to you．
It will be impossible to lose the key，and a housebreaker will have to tamper（胡亂擺弄）with the lock or with a window．It is not very difficult to make such tampering send a signal to the computer．
The computer will be more than a fireman-policeman-servant．It will be an entertainer，and most of your entertainment will come right into your home．It does now，of course，but by 2040"entertainment（娛樂）"will mean much more．For one thing，you will be able to take part actively，rather than just watching．

RD：What's the oldest joke in the world？

RD：Do some people fail to develop a sense of humor？
Rod Martin，professor of psychology at the Western University in Canada，believes that while everyone is born without a sense of humor，as we develop，humor and laughter begin to appear．"Of course，some children are more serious，quiet，and less likely to laugh frequently，but this doesn't mean they don't have a sense of humor．"And according to Steve Wilson，there are no adults who don't have a sense of humor．"Almost everyone is able to develop a sense of humor，and I teach people how．"he says．
RD：Do people share a sense of humor unique to their own nation？
Sense of humor does differ a lot by country，according to an author named Scott Weems．British humor is thought to be absurd in nature，while American humor has an aggressive quality．According to a study，Germans are found to find everything funny．
