Findings from a new study were presented at a recent meeting of the American Psychosomatic(身心的) Society. Researchers in the United States studied 100,000 women during an eight-year period, beginning in 1994. All of the women were fifty or older. The study was part of the Women’s Health Initiative organized by the National Institutes of Health.

The women were asked questions measuring their beliefs or ideas about the future. The researchers attempted to identify each woman’s personality eight years after gathering the information.

The study found that hopeful individuals were 14% less likely than other women to have died from any cause. The hopeful women were also 30 less likely to have died from heart disease after the eight years,

Hilary Tindle from the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania was the lead author of the report. She said the study confirmed earlier research that linked optimistic feelings to longer life.

The researchers also gathered information about people’s education, financial earnings, physical activity and use of alcohol or cigarettes. Independent of those things, the findings still showed that optimists had less of a chance of dying during the eight-year period.

Some women who answered the questions were found to be hostile(敵意的), or highly untrusting of others. These women were 16% more likely to die than the others. They also were 23% more likely to die of cancer.

The study also found women who were not optimistic were more likely to smoke and have high blood pressure or diabetes. They were also more likely not to exercise.

Tindle says the study did not confirm whether optimism leads to healthier choices, or if it actually affects a person’s physical health. She also says the study does not prove that negative(消極的) emotions or distrust lead to bad health effects and shorter life. Yet there does appear to be a link that calls for more research.

A. A woman who doesn’t exercise.

B. A woman who always doubts what others say.

C. A woman with high blood pressure.

TV is an excellent resource for hearing and listening to English. The pictures help you understand what is being said and TV news is an ideal way to help improve your listening ability because within a short period of time the same news is often repeated. This means that you can watch basically the same news program several times within a day and that every succeeding program will help you to understand what is being said.

These preparatory steps are very important before your listening:

● Find out which news report you want to listen to, when and on what channel. CCTV 9 is a good choice because this is China’s English channel and has regular news reports.

● Just watch the news reports for a few days first, before requiring yourself to understand the stories. Give yourself time to get familiar with the newsreaders and their accents. You should also get an idea of the structure of the entire report as well as the structure of a typical news story.

● Watch the news in Chinese first. This will tell you what the main news items are and help prepare you for understanding news reports in English.

While listening, you should pay attention to a few things that you may try to do:

● You can aim at just getting what a story is about. Give a one-to -tow-sentence description after each story.

● Put forward a few questions to yourself about a story, and then seek to answer them from your listening. You can do this by stopping the tape as soon as the headline is read to you.

● Your may write a full transcript(抄本) of a story to practice intensive listening. This may bring to notice listening problems that have skipped your attention when you only concentrate on the content.

  Even though the listening part is over, some follow-up activities will help you reinforce(加強) your learning. You may talk about the news with one or more friends. This provides an opportunity to produce a summary or express your thoughts in a brief article.

62. The underlined word “succeeding” most probably means ______.

A. funny                        B. next                     C. good                   D. famous

63. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A. Getting ready for news listening.               B. Making suggestions while listening.

C. Doing follow-up activities after listening.   D. Listening practice after the proposal.

64. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. The pictures on TV are helpful to your written English and spoken English.

B. CCTV 9 is a good choice because there are all excellent foreign newsreaders.

C. You may get a general idea about a story by using one or two sentence.

D. You may use the whole transcript of a story to practice your writing ability.

65. The best title for this passage may probably be ______.

A. How to Listen Step by Step                       B. How to Improve Your Listening

C. How to Learn from Listening                     D. How to Listen to TV News

He Qiangcheng, 22, a senior and geology major from Sichuan Normal University, has almost given up trying to act like his childhood hero, Lei Feng.

 “I once tried to help a woman with heavy luggage, and she gave me a suspicious look,” he complains. “Then another time, when I returned a lost dining card to the canteen, the staff asked me to use up the cash on it rather than bothering to find the owner.” But, despite having met with rejections, He still wants to be like his idol. His hero, Lei Feng, was a People’s Liberation Army soldier who came to represent altruism(無私), modesty and devotion.

March 5 marks the 50th year of Lei’s death. In 1963, Chairman Mao Zedong designated the day as “Learn From Lei Feng Day” and started a national campaign for people to copy his deeds.

Several decades after the campaign was initiated, there has been a debate about whether the spirit of Lei lives on, and whether an altruistic role model is relevant any more in a materialist society.

Some think it no longer rings a bell. “In a world when everyone emphasizes the importance of ‘me’, many of my peers think there’s little ground for giving up one’s interests purely for the sake of others,” says Lin Zi’en, 19, a sophomore English major from South China Normal University in Guangdong.

Commentators, however, point out those who regarded Lei’s spirit as being outdated have misinterpreted its meaning. Yang Haibin, deputy secretary of China Communist Youth League Beijing Committee said, “Learning from Lei Feng could be a mutually caring and benefiting act, which is the basis of civilized society. And, Lei’s spirit can be modern and relevant, says Yang. He believes that lending a helping hand for no reward is an early form of volunteering. “It’s also about being content with a simple and humble way of life,” Yang says.

Hu Danhua, 21, an international business major from China University of Political Science and Law, agrees. “I’ve gained peace of mind and spiritual fulfillment through small acts of kindness, such as teaching village pupils. I could obtain it from nowhere else,” Hu says.

58. He Qiangcheng is talked about in Paragraph 1 in order to______.

A. tell an interesting story about Lei’s spirit   B. lead in the topic about Lei’s spirit

C. praised him as a good example of Lei’s spirit                           D. show he chases Lei’s spirit

59. The passage is mainly developed by ______.

A. analyzing causes                                      B. making comparisons

C. examining differences                                                              D. listing quotations

60. What does the underlined part “it no longer rings a bell” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

A. Lei’s spirit is out of date.                           B. Lei’s spirit is like a ring.

C. Lei’s spirit is as good as a bell.                 D. Lei’s spirit is the same as a bell ring.

61. Who has a negative attitude towards Lei’s spirit according to the passage?

A. He Qiangcheng.        B. Lin Zi’en.             C. Yang Haibin.       D. Hu Danhua.

Her opponent was the defending champion whose childhood dream was to win the French Open. She was the underdog who never saw the tournament on TV as a girl in China and never thought she’d get far on the red clay of the French Open, one of the four tennis Grand Slams (大滿貫).

But it was Li Na who fell on her back in triumph(勝利) on June 4. Nearly two hours’ hitting gave Li a 2-0 victory over Francesca Schiavone of Italy and made her the only tennis player, man or woman, from Asia to take home a Grand Slam title.

Chinese media have been swept along by the praise. An editorial carried by Xinhua News Agency said “Li Na is the best PR (Public Relations) for China,” and called her an “outstanding name card for the country” and a “brilliant diplomat”. It compared Li to Chinese NBA star Yao Ming, noting that both “can speak very fluent English, and both of them have a kind of sense of humor that is appreciated by foreigners”.

Success has come late for Li. She once gave up tennis for two years and studied journalism at Wuhan’s Huazhong University of Science and Technology. But in 2004, she returned and continues to play the best tennis she could.

“Dream comes true,” Li said after the match. “I am so happy that my efforts have paid off.” Li has often been seen as a rebel(叛逆者), or at least a representative of a new generation. She has a tattoo(紋身), has dyed her hair many different colors and has even been known to yell at her husband in public. “The plain-speaking, tattooed, individualist has the ability to transcend the sport and become a global star”, the BBC news reported.

No matter how important the French Open championship is, Li is not resting on her laurels(桂冠) — she’s already thinking about winning a second major title. “When you have the first one, naturally you will think about the second one. Now I have more confidence playing on other surfaces,” Li told China Daily, as she prepares for the Wimbledon Championship, which will start on June 20.

55. Which year did Li Na begin to study journalism?

A. In 2004.                      B. In 2002.               C. In 2006.              D. In 2000.

56. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.

A. Li Na’s childhood dream was to win the French Open

B. compared to Yao Ming, Li Na speak more fluent English

C. the BBC reported that she has a tattoo, has dyed her hair and yelled at her husband in public

D. Francesca Schiavone was given a 2-0 failure in the Open championship after nearly two hours’ hitting

57. According to the passage, we can know that ______.

A. after the Open championship, Li Na would become normal but not a rebel

B. Li Na can stand for China and become a brilliant diplomat

C. Li Na is full of confidence to get a second major title

D. Li Na would pay more attention to her own personality and wouldn’t yell at her husband

Every day my husband parked his car in the same open-air car park in Zimbabwe. On this particular day, he had been running to his car with a huge bundle of office papers under his arm. As he opened the car door, he suddenly lost control of his body. He felt a stabbing pain in his arm, became totally breathless and lost consciousness. As he collapsed, half in, half out of the car, his last thought was “what a way to die”.

A young woman getting into her own car in the otherwise deserted car park noticed what was going on and at once ran to my husband’s aid, trying to resuscitate him. Realizing time was critical, she tried to move my husband to her car, calling the guard at the gate.

Fearing an ambulance would take too long to arrive, she felt it better to get to the hospital as quickly as she could. She raced through traffic lights sounding her car’s horn and screeched into the hospital car park, calling out, “I have an unknown man here who I think is having a heart attack.”

Once this Good Samaritan realized he was in capable hands she returned to the car park, found his keys on the ground, collected his scattered papers and stacked them in the car. Having seen my husband come out of a certain building each day, the security guard thought he knew where he worked. The young woman managed to locate his colleagues who in turn contacted my niece. She then waited for me to return home so she could break the news to me.

After extensive tests it turned out that my husband had had a grand mal epileptic seizure. We were naturally eager to find the kind stranger who had come to his aid. After some weeks we discovered where the young woman worked. She was overjoyed when my husband walked into her office with a huge bouquet(束) of flowers. She said she required no thanks, and preferred to remain anonymous(匿名的).

We now live in a different country, but each Christmas my husband remembers her act of kindness and sends a gift. We regard every day of his life as a bonus, all thanks to this kind stranger.
