It is hardly a problem that most of us have to bother as much as we might like to dream that it were the case.Yet the blessings and curses of beauty have been a long-standing interest in psychology. Do those blessed with shiny faces and an attractive body live in a cloud of appreciation or does it sometimes pay to be ordinary?bing through decades of findings, social psychologists Lisa Slattery Walker and Tonya Frevert at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte havereviewed all the evidence to dateand their conclusions are not what you might expect.At the most basic level, beauty might be thought to carry a kind of halo(光环) around it; we see that someone has one good quality, and by association, our deep mind may assume that they have other good ones too. Even in the courts, a pleasing appearance can work its magic. Attractive criminals are likely to get less strict sentences, or to escape punishment entirely; attractive plaintiffs(原告), meanwhile, are more likely to win their case and get bigger financial settlements. “Its an effect seen everywhere,” says Walker.But if beauty pays in most circumstances, there are still situations where it can have opposite results. While attractive men may be considered better leaders, for instance, hidden sexist prejudices(偏见) can work against attractive women, making them less likely to be hired for high-level jobsthat require power. And as you might expect, good-looking people of both sexes run into envy one study found that if you are interviewed by someone of the same sex, they may be less likely toemploy youif they judge that you are more attractive than they are.More worryingly, being beautiful or handsome could harm your medical care. We tend to link good looks to health, meaning that illnesses are often taken less seriously when they affect the good-looking. When treating people for pain, for instance, doctors tend to take less care over the more attractive people.And the bubble of beauty can be a somewhat lonely place. One study in 1975, for instance, found that people tend to move further away from a beautiful woman on the pathway perhaps as a mark of respect, but still making interaction more distant. “Attractiveness can convey more power over visible space but that in turn can make others feel they cant approach that person,” says Frevert. Interestingly, the online dating website OKCupid recently reported that people with the most beautiful pictures are less likely to find dates than those with less perfect pictures.Ultimately, Frevert points out that focusing too much on your appearance can itself be harmful if it creates stress and anxiety even for those already blessed with good looks. “If you are crazy about attractiveness, it may affect your experience and interactions,” she says. Its an outdated saying, but no amount of beauty can make up for a bad personality. As the writer Dorothy Parker put it so elegantly: “Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone.”58. From paragraph 1, we can learn that _.A. some may be bothered by their unattractive appearanceB. most people are not afraid of being too beautifulC. we might always dream about being bothered by othersD. being too beautiful can be a problem bothering everyone59. The writer mentioned the underlined sentence in the last paragraph to _.A. persuade us to pay more attention to our looks from now onB. suggest that beauty can help make a better personalityC. encourage us to focus more on improving our personality D. ask ugly people to have more confidence in their personality60.What might be the best title for the passage?A. Negative Sides of BeautyB. Sexist Prejudice C. Blessed with Beauty D. Beauty vs UglinessCThe old man fished alone in a small rowboat and he had gone eighty-four days now without taking a fish. In the first forty days a boy had been with him. But after forty days without a fish the boys parents had told him that the old man was now bad luck, and ordered the boy to join another boat, which caught three good fish the first week. It made the boy sad to see the old man e in each day with his boat empty and he always went down to help him carry in the fishing lines or take down the old, patched sail.“Santiago,” the boy said to him as they dragged up the boat to the sand. “I could go with you again. Ive made some money.” the old man had taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him. “No,” the old man said. “Youre with a lucky boat. Stay with them. You must obey your father.” “We can be lucky again too. Remember when we didnt catch a fish for 10 days, then caught a big one each day for a month?” said the boy. “Can I offer you a beer on the balcony and then well take the stuff home,” said the boy. “Why not?” the old man said.“Santiago,” the boy said as they sat on the balcony, “If I cannot fish with you, I would like to serve in some way.” “You bought me a beer,” the old man said, lifting the bottle to his mouth. “Do you remember the first time I took you out to fish?” the old man asked. “I was five. I remember the tail of a huge fish slapping against the boat, the noise of you clubbing him and the sweet blood smell. I remember everything from when we first went together,” the boy said. The old man looked at him with his sun-burned, loving eyes.“May I get some sardines for tomorrow? Let me get four fresh ones,” said the boy. “One,” the old man said. His hope and his confidence had never gone. But now they were freshening like a sea breeze. “Two,” the boy said. “Thank you,” the old man said. He was too simple to wonder when he had attained modesty. But he knew he had attained it and he knew it was not disgraceful and it carried no loss of true pride. “Tomorrow is going to be a good day with this wind,” he said. “I will row far out before it is light. There will going to be a good day with this wind,” he said. “I will row far out before it is light. There will be a big fish?” asked the boy. “I think so. And I know many tricks.”61.

What happens in the course that makes us responsible now? Its the seed that we sow in the beginning which grows and bees a huge tree. As I sit here, silently thinking about my growth, I wonder over some questions which dont have an answer but its because of such unanswerable situations that life has bee a roller coaster ride.As a kid, I used to read a lot of story books. In one particular book, I read a story of a bird. From then on, that has bee an integral (必不可少的) part of my life. It described a male bird which takes a lot of pain to build a nest and the female bird takes shelter in it and nourishes the baby. When the bird learns to fly, the whole family flies off to a different place leaving behind the beautiful nest for other birds to grow their family in it. It made me wonder. How could they so easily sacrifice their house built with so much effort?One night, when I was deep in sleep, I got this particular dream. I was walking miles on the endless road, totally isolated but lined with beautiful trees on the either side. Fascinated by the greenery, I marched towards it only to end up deeper and deeper into the greenery. I happened to stop upon seeing something. It was a massive, wonderful house. I fell in love with that amazing part of art. Yeah, it was indeed a piece of art with every nook and corner touched artistically and lovingly. I dont know why I felt that it was done lovingly. Maybe because, things turn out to be beautiful only when we put our love into it just like the food prepared by mom which tastes more delicious with her love.I explored the house only to fall more in love with it. There was a sloping roof which matched with the greenery around; the large central open courtyard reminded me of the activities that might have taken place there which felt lively even now when it is pletely deserted. The small water body that kept the house cool added to the beauty of the house of course, it was all dried up now. Its really wonderful how such things add life to the spaces which otherwise just bee structures. Such liveliness and happening turns the house into a home. They say THE HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS, but now I began to feel it. This is where my heart belongs. This is what Im destined to do.When I woke up from the dream, I was clear about everything. I realized where that mile of walk was intending me to lead. I realized what message my dream wanted to convey me. And years later, when finally my turn of choosing my destination came, I simply closed my eyes, held that book in my hand, pressed it against my chest and relived the dream. When I opened my eyes, I was sure what to do. I decided to choose the road less traveled. Yes, I took up architecture as my profession because this is what I am destined to do. I wanted to do the same thing that the male bird in the story did, to take pain in building a beautiful house and let others stay in it. This is my dream e true and the happiness that I gain now from this profession is indescribable.66. When the writer read the story of the bird, he probably felt _.

In the writers dream, what part of the house attracted him most? A. The greenery surrounding the house.B. The body of water that keeps the house cool C. The liveliness he sensed around the house.D. The fact that the house was very large.70. The above passage is mainly about _. A. how the writer finally bees an honest citizen B. where the true meaning of responsibility lies C. what we need to do when we are seeking fortune D. why the writer takes up architecture as his career第II卷（非选择题） 第四部分：任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填一个单词。Friends in y
