But some people will probably be puzzled when they first come to India. When they talk to an Indian, he often shakes his head. They might think that the Indian does not like what they said, but on the contrary he is expressing agreement.The Indians have a habit of shaking their heads slightly when they talk to somebody. It doesnt mean “No”， but “Yes”If a person doesnt know this, it might cause misunderstanding.At one time a foreigner in India told his driver who was an Indian to take him to his office. The driver shook his head. The foreigner repeated his request and the driver shook his head again.

If we have not known a text well, we must read it again.We should not read the next one till we have learned the first one. When we are studying, we must put our hearts into the book, or we can get nothing from the bookwhile we are reading. We must always ask why. If it is not well understood, write it down and ask our teachers or ourparents, or friends. In any possible way, we must know it completely and what weve learned can beused well and made better. Though there are many ways for studying, yet the above mentioned (提到的) will be quite enough ifwe can keep them in heart and do so.24.

They see each moment, each challenge, each person as an opportunity to discover more about themselves and the world around them. 37 Happy people understand that you cant really change a situation by resisting（反抗）it. But they can feel better by understanding that there might be a reason for its existence（存在）. 38 But rather, they ask themselves questions like: What can I learn from this? How can I make this better? They always seem to be pleasant and hopeful no matter what happens to them.They do the things they do because of the meaning it brings into their lives and because they get a sense of purpose by doing so. 39 They care more about living a life full of meaning rather than, what in our modern society we would call, living a successful life. The fact here is that most of the time they get both, success and meaning, just because they choose to focus on doing the things they love the most. 40 They make sure that their actions bring meaning and happiness in the lives of many.

F。快乐的人做事情不是为了野心，钱或我们所谓的成功，而是因为自己真正的爱好，因此做自己真正喜欢的才是生活的意义所在。40. D。快乐的人不自私，因为他们做的事情是为了他人而不是自己。完形 3640 DABCC 4145 CCCBD 4650 DDAAB 5160 BCCAD 41D解析：从文章大意可知是希望人们有健康的生活方式，参加一些活动(第二段)，因此选playing outside最合适。42A解析：考查动词短语辨析。上文提出了一个问题，所以用find out“发现，找到(答案)”，其他选项均不符合文意。43B解析：考查词组搭配。leave.off“关掉”。44C解析：考查介词搭配。由后文的to可知这里只能填from。45C解析：这两句话说的是参与这个活动的人数的变化，因此这里是“起初，一开始”，用in the beginning。46C解析：考查词义辨析。这句话是对前一句话的补充说明，根据“people in every state in America and in more than 12 other countries”可知是对所有参与者的一个说明，所以用including“包括”。47C解析：进一步陈述组织者的目的。48C解析：组织者的目的就是希望人们有健康的生活方式，所以用turn on life“点亮生活”，生动、形象地阐明了中心。49B解析：根据空后的in school可知是针对学生来说的，因此用kids。50D解析：根据上下文提供的数据可知，大多数孩子与在学校时相比，看电视的时间更多。51D解析：这里表示“看电视过多”。52D解析：考查上下文推理。上下文之间是因果关系，as a result“结果，因此”。53A解析：考查上下文推理。根据上文的grow fat可推知，这里应该是overweight“超重的”。overeaten“吃得过多”是导致肥胖的一个方面；overgrown“成长过快的”；overseen“监督”，都不符合文意。54A解析：考查上下文推理。从逻辑上看首先可排除result from“由于”；keep away“不接触”。再根据后面的“too little exercise，and violence”，从搭配上排除develops。55B解析：根据中心思想，Vespe认为从道理上说这样做“应该是”健康生活的一部分。56B解析：从下文来看Vespe是作为一个电视观众，即本次活动的参与者来谈自己的体会，而不是一个组织者，因此用taking part in。participate后面要加in。57C解析：考查every time引导的时间状语从句。主句为现在进行时，因此用every time“每次”最合适。而e
