Id never seen him cry before.The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say, “What? Hes all right?” He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home!”“Thank God!” I heard Mum cry.From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car.

It can uncover laws of nature, cure diseases, make bombs, and help bridges to stand up. Indeed science is so good at what it does that theres always a temptation(诱惑) to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful. David Brooks, author of The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character, and Achievement, appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to go against the temptation.Brooks gained fame for several books. His latest book The Social Animal, however, is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books. It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics. The book focuses on big questions: What has science uncovered about human nature? What are the sources of character? And why are some people happy and successful while others arent?To answer these questions, Brooks studies a wide range of disciplines（学科）. Considering this, you might expect the book to be a simple description of facts. But Brooks has formed his book in an unusual, and perhaps unfortunate way. Instead of introducing scientific theories, he tells a story, within which he tries to make his points, perhaps in order to keep the readers attention. So as Harold and Erica, the hero and heroine in his story, live through childhood, we hear about the science of child development and as they begin to date we hear about the theory of sexual attraction. Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.On the whole, Brooks story is acceptable if uninspired. As one would expect, his writing is mostly clear and, to be fair, some chapters stand out above the rest. I enjoyed, for instance, the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own. While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters, the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere. These problems partly involve Brooks attempt to translate his tale into science.32.The author mentions the functions of science at the beginning of the passage to_.A. explain where science can be appliedB. show the value of Brooks new bookC. remind the reader of the importance of scienceD. explain why many writers use science in their works33.According to the author, which of the following could be a strength of the book?A. Its strong basis.B. Its clear writing. C. Its convincing points.D. Its memorable characters.34.What is the authors general attitude towards the book?A. Contradictory.B. Supportive.C . Cautious.D. Critical.35.What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph?A. Death of the characters.B. Brooks life experience.C. Problems with the book.D. Brooks translation skills. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，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。 Simple ways to get happyWe are not suggesting that you can reach a permanent state called “happiness” and remain there. But there are many ways to turn the path of anxiety, anger, and sadness into a state of happiness. Here are four ideas to get you started. 36 Laugh out loudJust expecting a happy, funny event can raise levels of pleasure-causing hormones (荷尔蒙) and lower production of stress hormones. Researchers at the University of California tested 16 men who all agreed they thought a certain videotape was funny. Half were told three days in advance they would watch it. 37 When they actually watched the video, their levels of stress hormones dropped greatly, while their levels of pleasure-causing hormones rose 27 percent. Do one thing at a timeEdward Suarez, professor of medical psychology at Duck, found that people who do several things at the same time are more likely to have high blood pressure. 38 Instead of talking on the phone while cleaning the kitchen, sit down in a fortable chair and turn your entire attention over to the conversation. 39 Although relationships help take away stress, sometimes you need time to recharge and reflect on your own. Take yourself out to lunch or to a movie, or simply spend an afternoon reading at home, or looking through books in a bookstore. Practice mindfulness 40 Instead of worrying about your check-up tomorrow while having dinner with your family, focus on the here and now food, the pany, and the conversation.A. Spend time alone. B. Focus on the present. C. Take care of the soul.D. Take that finding seriously.E. Choose the ones that work for you.F. They started experiencing biological changes right away.G.
