I hurried up during this process.One day, however, while at a party, I heard an artist friend telling everybody that his idea came while he was having a shower. “What about you?” he asked, “Dont you get your creative thoughts from the same place?”“Im in and out in a hurry,” I told him proudly. “I have no time to waste!”“What a pity,” he said. “Thats the place where you need to slow down; plenty of great thoughts come from there!” I tried it out. I slowed down the whole process, started enjoying the warm water, taking a little longer to soap myself and even spending more time just enjoying the process, and realized how much I had missed in hurrying up all these years.A woman told me how much stress her friend was suffering from and how she sought to convince her that she needed to find ways to relax. She gave her a videotape on stress management and relaxation techniques, and encouraged her to watch it right away. Fifteen minutes later, her friend handed back the tape. “It was good,” she said, but I dont need it.”“But its a 70 - minute video,” the woman replied, “You couldnt have watched the whole thing.”“Yes, I did,” her friend said. “I put it in fast - forward!”A major social problem of the 21st century is Hurry Sickness. We hurry through work. We swallow fast food. We complain that we dont have enough time. We race through the days and weeks until one day we look back in amazement and comment, “My god, how the years flew by!” Then we realize the heavy price we have paid for traveling fast.Symptoms of Hurry Sickness include stress and anxiety, bad relationships, lowered work performance and even disease. Some people dont survive it. Whats the cure? Slow down, for life is so short and precious that we must live it well.24. What was the advantage of taking a shower in the eyes of the artist friend?A.

She found the tape useless.C. She felt stressed. D. She watched the tape too fast.26. What are the major trouble people face in the 21st century in the writers eyes?A. People run fast to work. B. Time flies without being noticed.C. People dont have enough time. D. Everything is done in a hurry.27. How can the problem be settled?A. By learning to survive. B. By pacing down.C. By developing friendship. D. By performing good workCLife in the Internet age is lonelyor is it? Thats what experts in human interaction are debating after a newStanfordUniversitysurvey has been published.According to the study, the more time people spend online, the less they can spare for real-life relationships with family and friends. The researchers asked 113 people about the Webs influence on daily activities. 36of those people are online for more than five hours a week.” As Internet use becomes more widespread, it will have an increasingly isolating (孤立的) effect on society,” says Robert Kraut, one of the researchers.Scholars and Web lovers criticized the study forstretching its data to make the “isolating” point. While 13of regular Web users admitted the loss of time with loved ones, 60reported watching less TV. The survey also shows that E-mail is the most popular online activity. If some of webheads (网虫)spend what was once passive TV time keeping company with friends via E-mails, “thats a move toward greater connectedness,” says Paul Resnick, a professor at the University of Michigan.Thisisnt the first claim that the Web should be criticized. A 1998 report monitored 73 Pittsburgh-area families Net use for a year. People who used the Internet more “talked less to family members and reported being lonelier and more depressed.” says Robert Kraut.“Its true that there have been big declines in social connectedness over the past decades, but those declines began before the Internet was invented,” says Thomas Putnam.As Amitay Etzioni says, the Internet gives us a different kind of social lifenot better or worse than before, but just different.28.Who claimed that the Web had negative influence?A.Paul Resnick.B. Robert Kraut.C. Thomas Putnam. D. Amitay Etzioni.29.The underlined word “This” in Para.4 refers to.A.the opinion expressed in Bowling AloneB. the survey made by theUniversityofMichiganC. the conclusion in a report written in 1998D. the study conducted byStanfordUniversity30.From the passage we learn that.A. watching TV used to take time away from staying onlineB. the Web was blamed more than once for causing an isolating effectC. 36of web users spend more than five hours a week onlineD. the Web has the same influence as telephones and televisions31.The passage mainly discusses.A. how we can make a better use of the InternetB. how declines in social connectedness appearC. whether the Internet causes an isolating effectD. what a different life the Internet brings to usDMost people will recognize Bill Clinton, ex-president of the United States. Bill Clinton is a very popular speech giver and regularly gives talks all over the world, to many different audiences. He is so effective at giving talks because he has a special quality which we call “charisma (魅力)”.Nowadays, psychologists (心理学家) are becoming very interested in charisma and want to describe its meaning in a better way. People often misunderstand what charisma is and think of it as a kind of fame, but it is not the same as fame. Charisma is a kind of magic and is relatively rare. A well-known American psychologist thinks that charismatic people are basically excellent communicators. However, they have other qualities such as self-confidence, eloquence (口才) and vision.Charismatic personalities are able to draw people to them, and people feel happy in their company. There is a sense of “togetherness” when a charismatic person is with other people. A good example of this ability, some say, is the famous American, Oprah Winfrey. She is a highly-successful businesswoman and is probably best known as the presenter of a very popular talk show. Oprah is able to relate to audiences at her shows and they respond well to her. Her charismatic personality has made her one of the richest women in the world. She owns several houses and publishes her own magazines. Presently, she is presenting a new series of the Oprah Winfrey Show. She also runs a book club, which influences the nations reading habits and may be one of the reasons why people are reading more these days in the USA.A woman who had extraordinary charisma was the film star, Marilyn Monroe. A beautiful woman and a talented (有天赋的) actress, she was always the centre of attention wherever she went.Unlike fame, charisma doesnt disappear over time. Even now, more than fifty years after her death, when young people see Monroe in her films, her charisma seems as fresh and powerful as ever.32. Bill Clinton is good at giving talks because _.A. he was once president of the USA B. he has a quality called charismaC. he has many fans that support him D. he is well-known all over the world33. According to the text, charismatic people _.A. can easily attract and interest people B. are all effective speech makersC. are all confident and successful D. often try to create a calm atmosphere34. What do we know about Oprah Winfrey?A. She writes books to influence Americans reading habits.B. She often gives talks to American young people.C. She is most famous as a magazine publisher.D. She has a happy relationship with her audiences.35. The author mentions the popularity of Marilyn Monroe to show that _.A. Monroe is an extraordinarily talented actressB. charisma doesnt become weaker over timeC. fame is as important as charismaD. famous people always have charisma第二节 (共5小题,每小题3分,满分15分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。Tips for Teaching Kids ResponsibilityYour best friend has a teenager who helps with housework without being asked.
