Each of us must choose which we want to _36_ our future and our expectations. We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or _37_. Its our decision: from which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in _38_ or down in desperation? I believe in the upward look. I choose to _39_ the positive and skip right over the negative.An optimistic attitude is not a luxury(奢侈品); its a(n) _40_. The way you look at life will determine how you feel, how you perform, and how well you will get along with other people. _41_, negative thoughts, attitudes, and expectations _42_ themselves; they bee a self-fulfilling prophecy (预言). Pessimism creates a dark place where no one wants to live.Years ago, I drove into a service station to get some gas. It was a beautiful day, and I was feeling great. As I walked into the station to pay for the gas, the attendant said to me, “How do you feel?” That seemed like a(n) _43_ question, but I felt fine and told him so. “You dont look well,” he replied. This _44_ me pletely by surprise. A little _45_ confidently, I told him that I had _46_ felt better. Without hesitation, he continued to tell me how bad I looked and that my skin appeared yellow.By the time I left the service station, I was feeling a little _47_. About a block away, I _48_ over to the side of the road to look at my face in the mirror. How did I feel? Was I affected with jaundice(黄疸)? Was everything all right? By the time I got home, I was beginning to feel a little nauseous(恶心). Did I have a bad liver? Had I _49_ some rare disease?On another beautiful day, when I went into that gas station, feeling _50_ again, I figured out what had happened. The place had recently been painted a bright, distasteful _51_, and the light reflecting _52_ the walls made everyone inside look as though they had hepatitis(肝炎)! I wondered how many other folks had _53_ the way I did. I had let one short conversation with a total _54_ change my attitude for an entire day. He told me I looked sick, and before long, I was actually feeling sick. That single _55_ observation had a great effect on the way I felt and acted.The only thing more powerful than negativism is a word of optimism and hope. When a whole culture adopts an upward look, incredible things can be acplished.36. A.decide B. shape C. preview D. transform 37. A. forgiveB. praiseC. curse D. regret 38.

Most of us have noticed how important physical setting is to efficiency and fort in our work. College classroom space should be designed to encourage the activity of critical thinking.We are in the 21st century now, but step into almost any college classroom and you step back in time at least a hundred years. Desks are normally in straight rows, so students can clearly see the teacher but not all their classmates. The assumption behind such an arrangement is obvious: Everything of importance es from the teacher.With a little imagination and effort, unless desks are fixed to the floor, the teacher can correct this situation and create space that encourages interchange among students. In small or standard-size classes, chairs, desks, and tables can be arranged in a variety of ways: circles, U-shapes or semicircles. The primary goal should be for everyone to be able to see everyone else.Arrangement of the classroom should also make it easy to divide students into small groups for discussion or problem-solving exercises. Small classes with movable desks and tables present no problem. Even in large lecture halls, it is possible for students to turn around and form groups of four or six. Breaking a class into small groups provides more opportunities for students to interact with each other, think out loud, and see how other students thinking processes operate-all these are essential elements in developing new modes of critical thinking.In courses that regularly use a small group format, students might be asked to stay in the same small groups throughout the course. A colleague of mine, John, allows students to move around during the first two weeks, until they find a group they are fortable with. John then asks them to stay in the same seat, with the same group, from that time on. This not only creates a fortable setting for interaction but helps him learn students names and faces.56. The final purpose of arranging desks in circles or U-shapes is _. A. for teachers to divide students into small groups B. for teachers to find out how students think C. to make it possible for students to interact with each other D. to give students more opportunities to practice speaking57. The expression “step back in time at least a hundred years” is intended to convey that_. A. college classrooms often reminded people of their past B. critical thinking was encouraged even one century ago C. desk arrangement in a classroom was quite different from that a hundred years ago D. todays arrangement of college classroom space has little difference from pasts58. The way of arranging desks in classrooms in straight rows indicates that _. A. students can be easily prevented from cheating during tests B. teachers play a significant role in a classroom C.it is convenient for teachers to monitor students D. it is good for students to concentrate on listening to teachersBThe Catskill Mountains are a year-round playground for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers.

It is a particular problem in richer countries with sleep experts linking it to the use of mobile phones and puters in bedroom late at night. Sleep deprivation is such a serious problem that lessons have to be dragged down to a lower level to suit sleep-deprived learners, the study found. The international parison, carried out by Boston College, found the United States to have the highest number of sleep-deprived students, with 73% of 9- and 10-year-olds and 80% of 13- and 14-year-olds identified by their teachers as being negatively affected. In literacy(读写能力) tests there were 76% of 9- and 10-year-olds lacking sleep. This was much higher than the international average of 47% of primary pupils needing more sleep and 57% among the secondary age group. Other countries with the most sleep-deprived youngsters were New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, Australia, England, Ireland and France. High-performing Finland is also among the most lacking in sleep. Countries with the best records for getting enough sleep include Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Portugal, the Czech Republic, Japan and Malta.The analysis was part of the huge date-gathering process for global education rankings, the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study(TIMSS)and Progress in International Reading Literacy Study(PIRLS) “I think we underestimate the impact of sleep. Our data show that across countries internationally, on average, children who have more sleep achieve higher in maths, science and reading. That is exactly what our data show,” says Chad Minnich of the TIMSS and PIRLS International Study Center. “Its the same link for children who are lacking basic nutrition,” says Mr Minnich, based at the Lynch School of Education, Boston College. “If you are unable to concentrate, to attend mentally, you are unable to achieve at your best level, because your mind and body are in need of something more basic. Sleep is a fundamental need for all children. If teachers report such large proportions of children suffering from lack of sleep, its having a significant impact. But worse than that, teachers are having to adjust their instruction based on those children who are suffering from a lack of sleep. The children who are suffering from a lack of sleep are driving down instruction.”That means that even the children who are getting enough sleep are still suffering from this sleep-related lowering.61. What did the researchers of Boston College try to find?A. Why children dont get enough sleep B. How many hours children sleep every nightC. The relationship between sleep and health D. The relationship between sleep and test results62. Many children suffer from sleep deprivation because _.A. they sit in front of the TV for too long B. modern technological devices consume a lot of their timeC. their homework occupies too much of their time D.they can hardly sleep soundly and deeply63. Which of the following countries has the most sleep-deprived students?A. Japan B. Malta C. Finland D. Portugal64. Why are children who get enough sleep also victims?A. Because they are disturbed by sleep-deprived studentsB. Because the teachers waste time disciplining sleep-deprived studentsC. Because they have to spend time helping sleep-deprived studentsD. Because teaching is driven down by sleep-deprived studentsD A four-year-old girl sees three biscuits divided between a stuffed crocodile and a teddy bear. The crocodile gets two; the bear one. “Is that fair?” asks the experimenter. The girl judges that it is not. “How about now?” asks the experimenter, breaking the bears single biscuit in half. The girl cheers up: “Oh yes, now its fair. They both have two.” Strangely, children feel very strongly about fairness, even when they hardly understand it.Adults care about fairness too - but how much? One way to find out is by using the ultimatum (最后通牒) game, created by economist Werner Guth. Jack is given a pile of money and proposes how it should be divided with Jill. Jill can accept Jacks “ultimatum”, otherwise the deal is off, and neither gets anything.Suppose Jack and Jill dont care about fairness, just about accumulating cash. Then Jack can offer Jill as little as he likes and Jill will still accept. After all, a little money is more than no money. But imagine, instead, that Jack and Jill both care only about fairness and that the fairest oute is equality. Then Jack would offer Jill half the money; and Jill wouldnt accept otherwise.What happens when we ask people to play this game for real? It turns out that people value fairness a lot. Anyone offered less than 20-30% of the money is likely to reject it. Receiving an unfair offers makes us feel sick. Happily, most offers are pretty equitable; indeed, by far the most mon is a 50-50 split.But children, and adults, also care about a very different sort of (un)fairness, namely cheating. Think how many games of snakes and ladders have ended in arguments when one child “accidentally” miscounts her moves and another child objects. But this sense of fairness isnt about equality of oute: games inevitably have winners and losers. Here, fairness is about playing by the rules.Both fairness-as-equality and fairn
