8．"There is nothing either good or bad，but thinking makes it so．"-William Shakespeare，Hamlet．One of the greatest sources of unhappiness，in my experience，is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are．
　　When we see something we don't like，we wish it could be different-we cry out for something better．That may be human nature，or perhaps it's something that's ingrained in our culture．
An example：in my recent article，A Beautiful Method to Find Peace of Mind，quite a few people thought my view was too negative because I said you should expect people to mess up，expect things to go differently than you planned，and that you should accept that willingly．
It's too negative to expect things to go wrong，they said．However，it's only negative if you see it as negative，if you judge it as bad．Instead，you could accept it as the way the world works-as the way things actually are．And try to understand why that is，and embrace it as it is．Accept these things as they are，and try to understand why they're that way．
Does it mean you can never change things and make this world a better place？Not at all．But not because the world is full of misery，but because that's the path you choose to take，because you enjoy that path and the process of change．
　　Try a different approach：accept，and understand．It might lead to some interesting results．
63．What does the underlined word"ingrained"in the second paragraph mean？C
A．celebrated       B．followed         C．rooted       D．liked
64．What does the author mean by saying the underlined sentence in the third paragraph？A
A．People should take the world as the way it actually works．
B．The world is negative if people see and judge it as negative．
C．In current society we can expect nothing but mess-up people and go-wrong things．
D．We must try to understand what is nature of the world．
65．According to the article，people change the world becauseB．
A．the world is full of misery              B．they enjoy the process of change
C．they can't understand the world         D．they are kind people
66．Which of the following titles best sums up the whole passage？D
A．Change the world
B．Heal the world
C．Cherish the world
D．Accept the world．

分析 本文是一篇科教類閱讀，主要講的是接受世界本來的樣子才可以讓其變得更好．

解答 63-66．CABD
63題答案：C考查細節(jié)推理，根據第二段的That may be human nature．（那可能是人的天性）可知"當我們看到不好的事情時希望它能變好是植根于我們的文化的"，故ingrained一詞的意思為"rooted"；因此本題答案為C選項．
64題答案：A考查細節(jié)推理，根據第三段劃線部分的 I said you should expect people to mess up，expect things to go differently than you planned，and that you should accept that willingly． （我說你應該期望人們搞亂、期望事情與你計劃的不一樣而且你應該欣然接受）可知作者的意思為"我們應該接受世界原本的樣子"，故本題答案為A選項．
65題答案：B考查細節(jié)推理，根據最后一段的but because that's the path you choose to take，because you enjoy that path and the process of change．（但是因為那是你選擇要走的路，因為你喜歡你選擇的路和改變的過程）可知本題答案為B選項．
66題答案：D考查主旨大意，文章主要講的是我們要欣然接受和理解這個世界并且做出一些改變讓世界更好．故本題答案為D選項．

點評 本文是一篇科教類閱讀，題目涉及多道細節(jié)理解題，做題時結合原文和題目有針對 性找出相關語句進行仔細分析，結合選項選出正確答案．推理判斷也是要在抓住關鍵句子的基礎上合理的分析才能得出正確的答案．

19．As we know，it is common for people to catch a cold in winter and most people believe they know the reason for colds．However，scientists say people have some wrong beliefs about the cause of colds．
Many people think that once you get infected by colds，you will not be easy to be attacked by colds for the rest of your life．That's not the case．There are about 200different viruses that cause the common cold．You catch a cold because of one kind of them this time，but you might catch a cold next time because of another．
Others believe that people get sick just because of the cold weather in winter．That is also wrong．
It's because people tend to stay closer in winter and the cold virus is  transmitted from one person to another through handshakes，sneezing，or coughing．
While there is no actual cure for the common cold，scientists say there are still a few things you can do to help you．Some experts say honey and chicken soup are effective against colds．Especially honey．There is increasing evidence that it helps shorten the duration of the common cold sometimes even by two to three days particularly in children．Chicken soup also helps reduce the duration of the cold．
In addition，if you do have a cold and you don't feel like eating anything，it's not going to hurt you but you have to drink a lot and you can drink water or tea because doctors say the water cycle in your bodies helps to cure colds．That's very important．Though there is more than one way to deal with colds，doctors say the best advice is to continue using whatever works best for you．

68．We know from the second paragraph thatC．
A．the common cold is caused by only one virus
B．there are people who never catch a cold
C．colds can be caused by different viruses
D．all people are easily attacked by colds
69．The underlined word"transmitted"in the fourth paragraph means"A"．
A．passed     B．changed    C．cured     D．caused
70．If you have a cold，you can do the following exceptD．
A．drinking a lot of water     B．drinking chicken soup
C．eating honey                D．forcing yourself to eat
71．It can be inferred from the passage thatB．
A．now scientists have found out practical treatment for colds
B．different people may have different ways to fight against colds
C．working in freezing weather is the main reason for colds
D．colds can be passed from animals to human beings．

16．No one knows why we sleep，but it's certain that we need to．People who are prevented from sleeping begin to suffer obvious effects after a few days-they think less clearly，and they fall asleep during the working hours； some may have hallucinations（幻覺）．
There are no rules about sleep．Generally speaking，grown-ups sleep about 7and a half hours each night and probably more than 60per cent get between seven and eight hours．But perhaps eight per cent are quite happy with 5hours or less，and four per cent or so find that they want ten hours or more．If you feel all right，you're probably getting enough sleep．The important thing is not to worry how much other people get-their needs may be different．Exercise doesn't seem to increase the need for sleep-office workers，for example，sleep for about as long as people doing physically active work．
Children sleep more than grown-ups-perhaps 14to 18hours soon after birth，going down to grown-up levels by early teenage．Sleep patterns also tend（傾向） to be different in the elderly，who may sleep less at night than they did when younger，find sleep getting more broken，and often make it a rule to sleep during the daytime．

67．According to the passage，some people are unable to think clearly becauseC．
A．they have hallucinations
B．they feel sleepy during the working hours
C．they don't have enough sleep
D．they are certain to be kept from going to bed
68．Which of the following is TRUE？B
A．All grown-ups must have at least eight-hour sleep．
B．Most of grown-ups sleep for seven or eight hours．
C．Quite a few people need only 5hours or less for them to sleep．
D．No grown-ups sleep more than ten hours．
69．Whether you have got enough sleep is judged byD．
A．how many hours you have slept
B．how many hours you need to sleep
C．whether you do exercise and physical work
D．whether you feel fresh and energetic
70．According to the passage，a boy of 14years old sleepsA．
A．as long hours as a grown-up
B．much longer hours than a grown-up
C．for 14hours each night
D．for less than 8hours per night．

3．You may think your bathroom is often full of bacteria（細菌） and so you give it a complete cleaning once a week．But how often do you clean out and disinfect（消毒） your fridge？Well，probably not often enough，according to a recent study，which found out that the fridge is the second dirtiest place in your house，just behind the bathroom．
Fridge temperatures were often set too high，allowing the growth of bacteria，which included E．coil，Enterobacteria，and S．aureus，all of which will give you an easy access to food poisoning．So what can you do to ensure your fridge---and your food in it---is not a health threat？
For starters，clean the fridge weekly---wipe it and repeat．
Make sure your fridge is at the correct temperature for storing food，between 0and 5degrees centigrade．Your freezer should be below-18degrees centigrade．You can use fridge and freezer thermeters to make sure this is the case．
Some modern fridges have zones to store different types of food，such as meat and vegetables．Make sure you don′t store meat in the vegetable zone，as the temperature there might be higher．
Make sure you don not leave the door open too long as the temperature in the fridge will quickly rise，creating a breeding（繁殖） ground for bacteria．
Cover food that has not been finished，and eat it within a couple of days．
Keep bottles and jars closed．
Keep raw meat away from cooked meat．Both should be well covered to prevent pollution．
Store raw meat at the bottom of the fridge to stop juices dripping onto other foods．
Finally，use common sense，and throw away old food．

33．What do we know from the first paragraph？C
A．People often clean their fridges once a week．
B．A recent study shows the bathroom is the dirtiest place in the house．
C．Many people don′t believe that the fridge is a dirty place．
D．The fridge may not have as many bacteria as the bathroom．
34．Which is the best temperature for storing your food in the fridge？C
A.10°C   B．-2°C    C.4°C   D．-18°C
35．The purpose of this text is toD．
A． introduce some common knowledge about fridges
B．teach people how to fix their fridges
C．guide people to store food properly in their fridges
D． let people know how to keep their fridges clean．

13．If your child has mobile internet access，it will be more difficult to monitor（監(jiān)督） and control his or her internet use．Kids are turning to the internet for everything from hanging out with friends to shopping，which makes it harder for parents to keep track of their online activities．Fortunately，there are many choices for controlling what your kids see on their computers，laptops，and mobile devices．
Content blockers and filters are great tools to use for younger kids．They allow you more control over where they go and what they do online．A content blocker can block some unhealthy websites or limit a child's search to the kind of sites．A content filter can scan sites and pictures and block those sites that contain certain words，key phrases，or content．
Consider tracking software for older teenagers．This software enables you to see which sites your children have visited，tracking their path online．This tool gives young people more freedom to explore the Internet，but it also allows you to check that they are using the internet responsibly．Let your teenagers know that you trust them，but that you will be regularly checking that they are visiting appropriate sites online．
Even if you use content blockers，filters，and trackers，you know that a lot of kids figure out ways to get around these，so it's important to remain alert（警惕的）．Remember that not all adult sites can be identified by blocker，filter，or tracker software．That's why it's important to talk to your kids about what to do when something inappropriate or scary comes up．Nothing can replace involvement and supervision（監(jiān)督） by adults．Keep monitoring how your kids use the internet on a regular basis without getting into the role of internet traffic police．

20．New research suggests that speaking more than one language may delay different kinds of dementia（癡呆），that is the loss of mental ability．In fact，researchers say，speaking two languages appears to be more important than the level of education in defending against dementias．
A study in India examined the effect of knowing more than one language in delaying the first signs of several dementias．Researchers studied nearly 650people whose average age was 66.240of those studied suffered from Alzheimer's，the most common form of mental decline（下降）.391of the subjects spoke two or more languages．Researchers found the dementias began about four-and-a-half years later in those who spoke two languages compared to those who spoke only one language．The level of education had no effect on the age at the first sign of dementia．
Thomas Bak，from the Center of Cognitive Aging at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland，who helped to organize the study，suggests that individuals who speak more than one language train their brains by moving back and forth between different words and expressions．He also believes this effort improves what scientists called executive（執(zhí)行的） functioning，which often weakens in people with dementias．He states that researchers found there was no extra gain in speaking more than two languages．
Mr Bak says it does not appear important whether you learn another language at a young age or later in life．It's not something that"you missed the boat when you do not do it as a baby．"It is something that is still quite useful and powerful when you do it as an adult．

59．The finding of the study is thatB．
A．learning more than one language can cure dementias
B．speaking two languages may delay kinds of dementias
C．the level of education matters in defending against dementias
D．people who suffer from dementias will lose mental ability
60．The underlined word"subjects"refers toA．
A．people who were studied in the study
B．notices that were put on about the study
C．questions that were asked in the study
D．methods that were used in the study
61．According to Mr Bak，C．
A．the more languages one speaks，the less chance of getting dementias
B．people's executive functioning often strengthens with age
C．when you learn one more language makes no difference
D．it is much easier to learn one more language at a young age
62．This passage may probably be seen inB．
A．a research plan    B．a health magazine
C．a book review      D．a business magazine．

In China，English is thought to be the first foreign language which many students  choose to learn．They begin to learn English at early age．It takes them at least one hour to learn the knowledge of English a day，Even the child in the kindergarten have begun learning simple words，it is a normal phenomenon．In addition to，some people think English is superior than Chinese．
In my opinion，though English is of great significant，English is a foreign language．It is hard for us to use it every day．English does help us in reading English original  works，but Chinese can help us learn a true China．Only with the help of Chinese  characters，can Chinese literature shows its brilliance．In order to learn a country's  culture，especial its classical culture，the first thing to do is to learn its language．
