When someone says that 39 has a good memory, he 40 means that he keeps his memory 41 practice by exercising it very 42 , either consciously or unconsciously. When someone else says that his memory is 43 , he means that he does not give it enough 44 to bee strong. The position is exactly the same as that of 45 people, one of 46 exercises his arms and legs by playing ball, while the other 47 in a chair or a car all day. If a friend of yours says that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own 48 , But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, 49 of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just 50 , and few of us realize that it is just as it was his arms or legs that were weak. Not all of us can bee very strong in body or very clever in mind, 51 all of us can improve our strength and our memory by the same means 52 .Have you ever 53 that people who cannot read or write usually have 54 memories than those who can? Why is this? Of course, because they cannot write down something in a little notebook or something else. They have to remember names, places, songs and stories; so their memory is always being exercised. In a word, if you want to have a good memory, 55 practise remembering. 36. A. Somebody B.

Bryan searched the kitchen but found only three aged bananas with big brown spots.“Roger,” begged Bryan, “youve read two books already today. Lets bake banana bread.”Roger closed his book with a sigh. “Sounds good, but do you know how? I dont.”“Its easy,” said Bryan. “Ive watched Mom make it.”The boys found the recipe and gathered everything they needed. Bryan was mashing bananas when he noticed Roger filling a huge soupspoon with salt.“Wait!” shouted Bryan. “You need just a teaspoon of salt.”Roger opened a drawer. “Which spoons are for tea?” he asked.Bryan was amazed. He had always thought that his older brother knew everything. “Roger,” he said, “use this measuring spoon. See , it says teaspoon on the handle.”Finally the batter（面料）was ready for baking. Soon a delicious smell of banana bread filled the house. An hour later, the boys opened the oven and found a beautifully rounded loaf, only a little burned around the edges.“Something smells wonderful,” said their mother when she arrived home. “Did you save a taste for me?”The brothers laughed, brushing crumbs from their fingers.“Sorry, Mom,” said Roger. “Next time we will. My little brother is quite a baker!”56If Roger had used the spoon he chose first, he would have _.Asaved timeBkept the bananas from spoilingCruined the banana breadDmade the batter too sweet57What did Roger probably do after he ate the banana bread?Aate an orangeBbaked another loafClooked for another recipeDcontinued reading his book58How did Bryan probably feel after the baking project?Aupset that the banana bread was burned Bproud that he had made dessert for dinnerCproud that he had taught Roger something Dupset that he had needed help from his mother.B I was being interviewed by a senior manager for a big pany. I told him honestly that the principal reason that I was interviewing with them was my need to keep my family in Boston. My wife had recently died of a heart attack. A job in Boston would help me reduce some pain for my 16-year-old daughter and me. It was important to me to keep her present high school. Bruce, the interviewer, was politely kind, but he didnt search any further. He acknowledged(承认) my loss and, with great respect, moved on to another subject. After the next round of interviews, Bruce took me to lunch with another manager. Then he asked me to take a walk with him. He told me that he had lost his wife. And, like me, he had also been married 20 years and had 3 children. I realized that he had experienced the same pain as I had and it was almost impossible to explain to someone who had not lost a loved one. He offered his business card and home phone number and suggested that, should I need help or just want someone to talk to, I should feel free to give him a call. Whether I got the job or not, he wanted me to know that he was there if I ever needed help. From that one act of kindness, when he had no idea if we could ever see each other again, he helped our family deal with one of lifes greatest losses. He turned the normally cold business interview process into an act of earing and supporting for another person in a time of extreme need.59. According to the passage, the interviewer, Bruce, was very . A. generous B. kind C. happy D. mean60. The underlined word principal in the first paragraph probably means . A. main B. unimportant C. necessary D. possible61. We can infer from this passage that . A. the writer didnt get the job in the pany B. Bruce made the writer pass the interview C. another manager also lost his wife D. the business interview was cold62. Which of the following statement is NOT true? A. The writers daughter was studying in Boston at that time. B. Both the writer and the interviewer experienced the same pain. C. Bruce was a senior manager of a big firm. D. Bruce wanted to make Mends with him because he gave him his business card and home phone number.C One would have to be a fool to overlook the importance of using positive thinking for you rather than snowing negative thinking to work against you. In recent years, research in psychopharmacology(精神药理学) has proved what many people have known over the centuries: a positive attitude is good for you, good for your health, good for your wealth, good for everything. Researchers have found that a positive attitude produces a specific chemical reaction which makes people feel better, while negative thinking results in a reduction of hormone(荷尔蒙) and shuts down the immune system. This leads to illness and depression. Positive thoughts will make you feel better. Even ifyou must begin by forcing yourself to be positive, it will bee contagious and the positive thoughts will produce nice little chemicals and good feelings which will reinforce the positive thoughts. For example, if you force yourself to smile or laugh, even when you dont feel like smiling or laughing, if you keep at it for a few minutes, you will soon feel like it. Feelings can make thoughts alive, and thoughts can do it, too. Control your thoughts and you can control your feelings. Positive thinking is important in all aspects of our lives. There is probably no single factor more important in determining your success in achieving your career purposes than your own attitude. Its often been said that in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. And in the office of militant(好战的) negativism, the positive workers shine like gold. You cannot control external events, but you can learn to control your reaction to those events and thereby have a positive attitude and be happy. This important key to success is totally within your control. Use it.63. We can infer from the passage that . A. positive thinking can cure you of your diseases B. positive thinking can easily be generated by anyone C. a reduction of hormone may cause you to be depressed D. a specific chemical reaction is the cause of negative thinking 64. According to the passage, which of the following is true? A. Feeling and thoughts can react to each other. B. Its easier to control thoughts than to control feelings. C. Your success depends wholly on your attitude. D. Keeping smiling will surely make you successful. 65.Just like a one-eyed man in the land of the blind, you should . A. take positive attitude in the office of militant negativism B. be kind in your office C. pay no attention to what is going on around you D. control your feeling to what is happening to you 66.The best title to the passage is . A. Thinking Benefits People B. Why Should People Think C. Positive Thinking and Negative Thinking D. Thinking: The Important WayD October 24the UN birthday is celebrated as United Nations Day. It is a day that belongs to everyone, and it is celebrated in most countries of the world. Some countries celebrate for a week instead of a day.Every year the President of the United States, in a special announcement, asks Americans to remember United Nations Day.In many parts of the world, schools plan programmes for this day. Boys and girls in some areas decorate（装饰）a United Nations tree, or plant a garden. In other areas young people put on plays about the United Nations.

The agreement or treaty(条约) which created the organization that eventually became the EU, the Treaty of Rome, stated that each countrys language must be treated equally. The original(原来的) six countries had only three languages between them: French, German and Dutch/Flemish. However, there are now 15 countries in the EU, with a total of 12 languages. EU documents must be translated into all these languages, and at official meetings the speeches must be translated into all the languages by interpreters. All this translating is very expensive and time-consuming (费时的). It is said that nearly half of all employees of the EU are engaged in translating documents and speeches, and nearly half of the EUs administrative(管理方面的) costs are spent on this task. In the near future it is probable that several morecountries, most of them having their own languages, will join the EU, thus making the situation even worse. The problem is not just cost; there are practical difficulties as well. With 12 languages, there are 132 possible translation situations that might be needed. It is often difficult to find people in the right place at the right time who can translate from (for example) Danish into Greek, or Dutch into Portuguese, at a high professional standard. In practice the problem has been made less severe by the use of English in many contacts between EU officials, since almost all of them speak some English. However, any move to reduce the number of official languages (perhaps to four or five) would be a blow to the pride of the smaller Countries. Another monly suggested solution is to make English the official language for all EU business. However, this is strongly resisted by powerful member countries li
