order to lose weight but not making progressAt that time, I spent hours every day working out to my videos and was still overweightI decided that there was no point in fighting itI thought I was meant to be fat foreverI needed a change of heart and mindThat change came in the most unexpected wayIt came with runningAfter dinner on Thanksgiving, I went out for a walk with my familyI had turned my little MP3 player on and was enjoying the music when my favorite song came onI felt like dancing, but that was out of the question （I had two teenagers with me）So I caught the speed a bit and started to run slowlyI was quite pleased with my burst of activityWhat was more surprising was that I got up the next morning and went out againAfter running, I felt strong and calm at the same timeI recalled the good feelings I felt when I used to run 20 years ago and decided that I wanted more of thatI signed up for a spring race and practiced hard for itEven though my weight is still heavier than what I would like, I no longer care about itI try to stay more focused on my lifeMost importantly, my workouts are less than an hour per day and I take Sundays off completelyMy goal is to keep exercising in my life but not let it take over my lifeAfter all, I am so much more than my weight56Weight Watchers is probably a_Away to help lose weight Bplan made by the authorCThanksgiving party DTV program57What was troubling the author according to the first two paragraphs?AThat she failed to lose weightBThat she had too little time to work outCThat she couldnt enjoy the food she likedDThat she was considered to be a failure by others58According to Paragraph 3, the author started running instead of dancing becauseAshe thought running would help her moreBshe didnt want to dance at that momentCit was inconvenient for her to dance at that momentDshe considered it useless to dance59In Paragraph 4 the author mainly wants to tell us that _Ashe was a good runner 20 years ago Bshe had strong will-powerCshe often surprised others Dshe really liked running60What was the authors biggest change after she started running?AThat she changed her attitude towards losing weightBThat she no longer wanted to lose weightCThat she spent more time in working outDThat she lost more weight than expectedBNow I know that we black people are much more likely to have high blood pressure and diabetes（糖尿病） than white peopleAnd they often lead to heart attacks and other untreated diseasesFor example, black people are three to four times more likely than white people to have high blood pressure and twice as likely as the white people to die of a stroke （中风）New research has found out the surprisingly high level of salt in many black peoples favorite mealsI stopped putting extra salt in my food at the table long ago and I try to cut down on the salt I use in cookingThe average daily level of salt for adults is 6 gramsIt is easy to see that if you avoid processed foods and use salt in your cooking within limits, you wont exceed the daily levelThe research showed how much salt there is in some foods that we buy from restaurants and takeawaysAn average salad with rice and peas has 62 grams of saltThis is more salt than what you are supposed to eat for the whole dayA researcher talked about the importance of home cooking rather than take-outsAt home, he pointed out, not only can you hold control of the salt shaker, but also you can create tasty food which is low in saltThe researcher later provided curry goat, rice and peasThey were low in salt, but completely deliciousI do not suppose Jamaicans are going to stop buying takeaways soonBut if you suffer from high blood pressure, it is probably better not to buy them often61The underlined word they in Paragraph 1 refers to _Awhite people Bblack peopleCuntreated diseases Dhigh blood pressure and diabetes62What has the new research found out according to Paragraph 2?ABlack people take in too much saltBBlack peoples meals

in no salt for several daysCStop cooking their favorite meals DEat fewer takeaways64The researcher provided curry goat, rice and peas in order to _Athank those who came to his home for his researchBlet people know that eating less salt makes one healthierCshow that tasty food with less salt can be made at homeDprove that the less salt the food has, the more delicious it is65What would be the best title for this passage?AWatch out for salt BTake care, black peopleCSay no to takeaways DSay no to high blood pressureCThe last school bell rings and your kids are off for the summerFor

OlympicsYet, a number of people have noticed some strange thingsYes, the gold medal winner is filled with pride and excitement, which is to be expectedYet often, it seems the bronze medal winner is happier than the silver medalistIt is strange that the 3rd place contestant might be happier than someone who did better （the 2nd place）How can this be so? What if reasoning can help to explain this interesting effectIn order to understand our world and our choices, we often imagine how things could have been differentA wife may ask, Would I be happier today if I had married someone else? Likewise, a student may think, If 1 had chosen another major, maybe I would have a better shot at getting into graduate school In short, what if thinking allows us to mentally create alternative to our realityIn the Olympics, the what ifs of the winners are differentClearly, the what ifs for the gold medalist involve not being No1this thought makes this athlete realize how fortunate he or she isFor the bronze medalist, the what ifs involve not being on the medal list at all, producing positive feelingsHowever, for the silver medalist, the what ifs can easily make the athlete ponder how things could have been different if he or she has won the gold medal （egwhat if I practiced harder, and what if I had not made the small error in my routine）Thus, the what ifs that come to mind of the 1st and 3rd place finishers are positive, but the 2nd place finishers have a number of dissatisfying alternatives to reality that can make them feel less happy71This passage is mainly about _Awho the happiest among the Olympics medal winners isBwhy the prize-awarding moments are unforgettableCwhat to pay attention to when watching the Olympic GamesDwhy bronze medal winners are happier than silver medalists72According to the passage, what if reasoning means _Aimagining what things could have been or would be in another situationBmaking the best choice in a very difficult situationCdoing the same thing using several different waysDlooking forward to being in a better situation73The underlined word ponder in paragraph 3 can be replaced by _Athink about Blook into Cwork on Dworry about74Which of the following is the silver medalists thought according to the passage?AI feel so fortune that I won the silver prizeBI feel happy for the first and third place winnersCIt could be worse if I were not on the medal list at all DThe result could have been better if I had made greater efforts75In which part of a newspaper would you most probably read the passage?AEducation BFamily CLife DPsychology第 卷 （共 35 分）第四部分写作（共两节， 满分 35 分）第一节:阅读表达 （共5小题;每小题 2分，满分 10 分）阅读下面短文，并按照题 目 要求用英语回答问题（请注意问题后的词数要求）1 Most people say yes much more readily than no2A friend is moving house this weekend and would like some help, and you agreeBut, what you really wanted was a couple of quiet days relaxing at homeOr a roommate spends the entire weekend playing video games and wants to borrow your homework for reference But, youve just finished it after taking a whole day to work hard3 Many people say yes to these kinds of requestsThey tend not to consider their own interests and feelings, and are often angry with themselves afterwards4 Saying no requires courage and considerable practice, in fact, according to psychologists5 Everyone wants to be liked, says Gabriele Steinki , a German psychologist Saying no risks losing the affection of the person asking the favor or even a job6 The result is that many people say yes just for keeping the peaceBut experts say this is regrettableAnyone shou
