They are more of a clear，yellowish colour. Although blood looks red when its outside the body，when its sitting in a vein near the surface of the skin，its more of a dark reddish purple colour. At the right depth，these bloodfilled veins reflect less red light than the surrounding skin，making them look blue by parison.Which works harder，your heart or your brain？That kind of depends on whether youre busy thinking or busy exercising. Your heart works up to three times harder during exercise，and shifts enough blood over a lifetime to fill a supertanker. But in the long run，your brain probably tips it，because even when youre sitting still your brain is using twice as much energy as your heart，and it takes four to five times as much blood to feed it.Why does spinning make you dizzy（眩晕的）？Because your brain gets confused between what youre seeing and what youre feeling. The brain senses that youre spinning using special gravityandmotionsensing organs in your inner ear，which work together with your eyes to keep your vision and balance stable. But when you suddenly stop spinning the system goes out of control，and your brain thinks youre moving while youre not！Where do feelings and emotions e from？Mostly from an ancient part of the brain called the limbic system. All mammals have this brain area from mice to dogs，cats，and humans. So all mammals feel basic emotions like fear，pain and pleasure. But since human feelings also involve other，newer bits of the brain，we feel more plex emotions than any other animal on the planet.31What is the colour of blood in a vein near the surface of the skin?ABlue. BDark reddish purple. CRed. DLight yellow.32Which of the following statements about our brain is true?AThe brains of the other mammals are as plex as those of humans.BWhen our brain senses the spinning，we will feel dizzy.CIn the long run，our brain probably works harder than our heart. DOur feelings and emotions e from the most developed area in our brain.33What is the main purpose of the selection?ATo provide information about our body.BTo give advice on how to stay healthy.CTo challenge new findings in medical research.DTo report the latest discoveries in medical science.BDown-to-earth means being honest, open, and easy to deal with. It is a pleasure to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to. He or she accepts others as equals. A down-to-earth person may be an important member of society, of course, but they do not let their importance go to their heads, and they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important. Someone who is filled with self-importance and pride, often without cause, is said to have his nose in the air. There is no way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth.Americans use another expression that is similar in some way to down-to-earth. The expression is both feet on the ground. Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality. He has what is called mon sense. He may have dreams but he does not allow them to block his knowledge of what is real. The opposite kind of person is one who has his head in the clouds. A man with his head in the clouds is a dreamer whose mind is not in the world. Sometimes such a dreamer can be brought back to reality; sharp words from the teacher, for example, can usually get a daydreaming student to put both feet back on the ground.The person who is down-to-earth usually has both feet on the ground. But the opposite is not always true. Someone with both feet on the ground may not be as open and easy to deal with as someone who is down-to-earth. When we have both our feet firmly on the ground, we are realistic and we act honestly and openly toward others, and our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.34If a person has his nose in the air, he _.A. is confidentB. is easy to deal withC. is down to the earthD. always thinks he is more important than others35The underlined sentence “But the opposite is not always true.” most probably means that _.A. the person who has his nose in the air is not trueB. a man with his head in the clouds is often not intelligentC. the opposite direction is always wrongD. a person who has both feet on the ground may not be down-to-earth36From the passage, we can infer the person who is _ is the most popular kind of person.A. down-to-earth B. standing on the groundC. with his nose in the air D. with his head in the cloudsCSome people will do just about anything to save money. And I am one of them. Take my familys last vacation. It was my sixyearold sons winter break from school，and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip. The flight was overbooked，and Delta，the airline，offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day. I had meetings in New York，so I had to get back. But that didnt mean my husband and my son couldnt stay. I took my ninemonthold and took off for home.The next day，my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. Yes，I encouragedokay，orderedthem to wait it out at the airport to “earn” more Delta Dollars. Our total take：$1,600.Not bad，huh?Now some people may think Im a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as a bigtime bargain hunter，I know the value of a dollar. And these days，a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.Ive made a living looking for the best deals and exposing（揭露）the worst tricks. I have been the consumer reporter of NBCs Today show for over a decade. I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade：A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in.I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your moneys worth. Im also tightfisted when it es to shoes，clothes for my children，and expensive restaurants. But I wouldnt hesitate to spend on a good haircut. It keeps its shape longer，and its the first thing people notice. And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts.37Why did Delta give the authors family credits?ATheir flight had been delayed.BThey had early bookings.CThey took a later flight.DTheir flight had been cancelled.38What can we learn about the author?AShe is very strict with her childrenBShe seldom makes a promise.CShe rarely misses a good deal.DShe is interested in cheap products.39What does the author do?AShes a teacher.BShes a housewife.CShes a businesswoman.DShes a media person.40What does the author want to tell us?AHow to spend money wisely. BHow to reserve airline seats.CHow to expose bad tricks.DHow to make a business deal.四、阅读填空 (共 5 小题, 满分 10 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。 Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain SharpEveryone is forgetful, but as we age, we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bitand that can be a very annoying thing. _41_Read on for some techniques worth trying.1. _42_People who regularly made plans and looked forward to uping events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimers disease（早老性痴呆症）,according to a recent study. _43_Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do.

Then I wiped the dust off all the furniture. After that，I swept and mopped the floors.At this very moment，my parents came back and were quite surprised to see all the rooms tidy and floors shining. My mother gave me a hug and I could see satisfaction in her eyes. Tired as I was，I never felt so happy.
