14．（36）C This date was the old mid-winter festival in pre-Christmas times，around the time of the longest night and the shortest day．Christmas in the 21st century has many traditions：Christmas trees，cards and presents．Shops can make about 60percent f their year's income in the three months before Christmas，so most shops get ready for it in October． （37）EThe first time this happened was in 1867when Macy's famous shop in New York，stayed open until midnight on Christmas eve．
By mid-December，almost every shop and street has a Christmas tree． （38）AIn the northern countries，winter is cold and dark and most trees are decorated with lights and colored glass balls giving people hope that spring will come．
Father Christmas is known across the world with his white hair，red coat and big bag of toys．Young children are told that he lives in the north of Finland and makes toys for them． （39）G
On Christmas Day a traditional meal is eaten，usually a turkey and a rich，spicy cake．Some people hate Christmas． （40）DThey love seeing family and friends； they also love the traditions．Love it or hate it，Christmas is a time to look back over the old year and forward to the new one．

A．This tradition was started by the Germans as early as 700AD．
B．Believe it or not．
C．Since about 400AD，Christmas Day has been celebrated．

E．The shopping centers are beautifully decorated and stay open late at night．
F．It was really beautiful indeed．
G．By tradition，he brings the toys to children at night，on the night before Christmas．

分析 本文屬于說(shuō)明文閱讀，作者通過(guò)這篇文章主要向我們描述了國(guó)外的傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日圣誕節(jié)的一些習(xí)慣和慶祝的方式，以及圣誕節(jié)的歷史等．

解答 36．C．推理判斷題．根據(jù)后文This date was the old mid-winter festival in pre-Christmas times，可以看出This date was festival，中心在festival 和選項(xiàng)中Christmas Day 一致；故選C．
37．E．推理判斷題．從句子stayed open until midnight on Christmas Eve．可以看出和選項(xiàng)E有聯(lián)系可知購(gòu)物中心布置得很漂亮，晚上營(yíng)業(yè)很晚；故選E．
38．A．推理判斷題．從句子most trees are decorated with lights and colored glass balls give people hope that spring will come．key words"most trees"以及前面的almost every shop and street has a Christmas tree可看出為A這個(gè)傳統(tǒng)開(kāi)始被德國(guó)人早在公元700年；故選A．
39．G．推理判斷題．從句子makes toys for them可看出按照傳統(tǒng)，他把玩具帶給孩子們?cè)谕砩�，在圣誕節(jié)前的晚上；故選G．
40．D．推理判斷題．從句子Some people hate Christmas．They love seeing family and friends； they also love the traditions．Love it or hate it，里面的love/hate 可看出其他人覺(jué)得這是一個(gè)神奇和激動(dòng)人心的時(shí)刻；故選D．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 考察學(xué)生的推理判斷能力和聯(lián)系上下文的能力，在做推理判斷題不要以個(gè)人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí)，要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷．此類的填空題一定要聯(lián)系上下文，根據(jù)上下文的內(nèi)容加上自己的理解，再作出正確的判斷．

2．You already know that you should wake up early to become more productive，and perhaps you have also heard that you shouldn't check your email first in the morning．While this advice is good and well-documented，there is also another kind of productivity advice that is as effective as well．（36）E
1．Work when there is a distraction（分心） around
Your environment doesn't have to be 100% quiet if you want to get work done．Let's say that you are working from home and you have kids．Let's also assume that you don't have a quiet workspace in your home to do your work．Naturally，you could decide to do work during the quiet hours．（37）D．
2．Drink coffee before taking a nap
（38）F Then take a caffeine nap．Combining coffee and napping time can have a big improvement in one's personal productivity．Drink a cup of coffee，take a 20-minute nap right afterward and wake-up refreshed．
3．（39）A
It's so funny to think that the places that seem like the last ones in which to get anything done are the best for productivity．I'm talking about trains and when I travel alone，I look forward to getting work done there．In fact，I have done a lot of work during my trips when I'm moving from one place to another．
4．Close the curtains
Closing the curtains can improve your productivity．I might do some work at the dining table where there is a window to the left of me．Since I can see the nearby parking space through the window （and the people and moving cars as well），the movement might catch my attention，so the simplest way to prevent the distraction is to close the curtains．（40）G

A．Work in a train．
B．Focus on one thing at a time．
C．Have a mobile Internet access with you．
D．But not all of the tasks have to be done then．
E．Try these tips and see how they work for you．
F．Want to improve your afternoon productivity？

（38）EThe nicotine makes him sick．In a few days，the smoker's body is used to the nicotine，and he feels fine．Later，the smoker needs nicotine to keep feeling fine．Without nicotine，he feels bad．

6．Friends in your life are like pillars on your porch．Sometimes they hold you up and sometimes they lean on you．Sometimes it's just enough to know they're standing by．Friendship doubles your joy and divides your grief．A friendship is priceless and should be cultivated．
●Remembering the golden rule
Without a doubt，the greatest human relations principle is to treat other people like you want to be treated．When you show respect for your friends and gratitude for their friendship，you'll be blessed in untold ways．
You can't know what has gone on in the rude person's life that day，but you can assume that his or her day hasn't gone well．Maybe a loved one lost his job，her boss reprimanded her unjustly，he's coming down with the flu，or she just found out that her teenager is taking drugs．
Whatever the cause of the rudeness，you don't have to accentuate（突出） the problem．A kind word or a gentle，understanding smile may help the person more than returned rudeness would．
●Considering foes as friends
A friend looks after your own good．On the other hand，a foe is someone who isn't interested in your well-being．
Yet some students view their teachers as enemies．However，a student's success in school partly depends on the teacher's effectiveness in the classroom．Instead of being an enemy，a teacher who corrects you and helps you to achieve can be the best friend you ever had．
This kind of thinking，along with a little attitude adjustment，helps you to convert foes to friends，and both of you are better off．
●Making friends by being an optimist
Do you enjoy being around a pessimist，someone who is generally described as being able to brighten up a room just by leaving it？The answer is obvious．Most people prefer to be around people who believe that tomorrow is going to be better than today，rather than people who believe that today is even worse than yesterday．
●Capturing the pleasing personality
    How do you develop a pleasing personality？Here are some steps you can take：
Smile when you see someone．You don't have to give a wide grin-just a pleasant，friendly smile．
Speak in a pleasant，upbeat tone of voice．Talk to people as if they are good friends，even if they don't really fall into that category yet．
Take a course in public speaking．The ability to express yourself attracts favorable attention from many sources．
Develop a sense of humor．Pick up a couple of joke books．This makes you a little more outgoing and friendly．
●Don't criticize unjustly
Instead of being eager to dish out criticism all the time，take the humane and sensible approach．Look for the good in others．Encourage them．Build them up．
    Most people seldom think through each situation completely and consider the other person's point of view．If you take the time and effort to do this，you'll end up befriending more people．
                    Title：Five ways to cultivate friendship
