want to share my story with you because what youve shared about life and positive energy has changed my life This past year has been one of the hardest for me I felt I was stuck in a position that had nothing to do with what I wanted to do with my life In January, after two years of being together, my boyfriend left me I read your blog every morning as I drink my coffee at work, but it wasnt until this March that I told myself no more negativity as you taught readers in your blogSince then Ive got into new habits at work to keep my energy positiveWhen people walk in the front door, Im the first face they see, so I smile big when I say good morning to them, especially on Mondays Instead of waiting for someone to ask me for help, I offer it with an open mind The CEO noticed my change and offered me the executive assistant position that I wanted One of the biggest things Ive taken to heart from your blog is changing my perspective on my job Yes, it was not an important position, but when I was passionate （热情的） about it, I could make my life fulfillingAll in all, I have to thank you somehow for having the passion to help others because it truly is inspiring to me So thank you so

in the Chinese capital since Wednesday, causing renewed discontent among residentsWithout rainfall and wind to decrease pollutants, particulate matter（颗粒物质） has been accumulating in the airMost monitoring stations measured PM 10 （ particulate matter smaller than 10 micrograms） at higher than 300 micrograms per cubic meterIn southwestern Beijings Fangshan District, the Liangxiang station recorded 516 micrograms of PM 10 per cubic meter, the highest reading of the day, according to the Beijing Municipal Environmental Monitoring CenterMore than 150 micrograms is considered harmful to healthBeijing has been covered by heavy smog off and on this winter, and the ongoing air concerns are wearing on residents, particularly as they prepare to celebrate the Spring Festival holiday next weekI almost got choked by the smog when I stepped out of the office building on Wednesday, said Yang Yanli, 24, an accountantThe smell is so terrible, as though Im inhaling lots of coal, that it has spoiled my holiday moodUnlike the smog that hit mostly the southern part of the capital on January 1, the smog in recent days has covered the entire city, according to the Beijing Environmental Protection BureauWorse yet, it will continue until Saturday, when the wind will pick up and blow it away, the bureau predictedThe Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention suggests people stay at home to protect themselves from breathing and heart problems caused by heavy smog and people with breathing problems put off traveling if the smog staysBut many people said they had to brave the bad air to travel, especially migrants who are eager to reunite with their families during the Spring Festival25According to the passage, most monitoring stations in Beijing measured PM 10 at this weekAhigher than 300 micrograms per cubic meterBsmaller than 10 micrograms per cubic meterC516 micrograms of PM 10 per cubic meterDmore than 150 micrograms per cubic meter26According to the passage,

BureauDSouthwestern Beijings Fangshan District27The underlined word inhaling” in the third paragraph probably means .Acoughing Bbreathing inCchoking Dsneezing28The smog weather is supposed to last until _ Aspring Bthe Spring FestivalCSaturday DWednesdayCWhat is politeness? This sounds like a simple questionIn daily life, we often make judgments about what is polite and what is not politeFor example, to offer your seat to the elderly on a bus is considered polite behavior, and to interrupt when someone is talking is considered impolite; to greet someone the first time you meet him in the morning is polite and to stand up to reach for the dish you want at a dinner table is impoliteSo politeness can first of all be regarded as a phenomenon, an observable social phenomenonWhat I would like to propose is that as an observable social phenomenon, politeness is something superficial, but to account for what is understood at the surface, we should dig into the depth where different cultural values are rootedWhen being complimented （赞美）, an English-speaking person would readily accept the compliment by saying something like Thank you to show his appreciation of the praise, but a Chinese speaker would try to deny the truth of the complimentThey both think they are behaving properlyYet neither of them would think the other is being politeThe English speaker is being polite to the extent that by accepting and showing appreciation of the compliment, and he avoids hurting the positive face of the person who makes it; the Chinese speaker is showing modesty by Denigrating（贬低） himself, ignoring the fact of the compliment paid to himAs has been mentioned, self-denigration has been at the core of the Chinese understanding of politeness for over two thousand yearsThe Chinese, in order to show modesty, will go to such lengths as to underrate what he himself has achieved and deny the truth of a complimentary remark29According to the first paragraph, politeness can be briefly described as _Aproper social phenomena Bbeing modestCshowing appreciation Dan observable social phenomenon30In the authors opinion, the nature of politeness lies in .Asomething superficialBwhat is understood at the surfaceCdifferent cultural valuesDthe root of different thoughts31Which of the following is TRUE?AChinese speakers dislike being complimentedBEnglish-speaking people are reluctant to accept complimentCChinese tend to show politeness and modesty by denying the truth of praiseDChinese people think highly of British politeness while English people think poorly of Chinese politeness32Whats the authors attitude towards Chinese politeness?AObjective BCriticalCOptimistic DApprovingDWhy is it so difficult to fall asleep when you are overtired? There is no one answer that applies to every individualBut many people fail to note the difference between fatigue, physical tiredness and sleepiness, the inability to stay awakeIts possible to feel tired physically and still be unable to fall asleep, because while your body may be exhausted, you don t feel sleepyTo fall asleep, you need enough time to relax, even if you feel fatiguedIts not so easy to simply turn offAccording to Carl EHunt, director of the National Center on Sleep Disorders Research in Bethesda, Maryland, most people do not allow themselves relaxedLack of sleep complicates matters even moreExperts say adults need at least 7 to 8 hours of sleep a night to function properlyWhen you get less sleep than that on consecutive （连续） nights, you begin to be burdened by sleep debtAs sleep debt increases （and functionality decreases） , your body experiences a stress response and begins to release adrenaline （肾上腺素）Now a bad cycle has been created: You experience the feeling of being more and more tired, but your body is increasingly stimulatedPower sleeping for more hours on weekends is only a temporary solutionThere is no substitute for getting a good nights sleep on a regular basis, says HuntMost of us, however, dont get the sleep we needAccording to the 2002 National Sleep Foundation, Americans sleep an average of 69 hours per night during the week, and 58 percent of adults experience sleeplessness a few nights a week or more33The writer intends to tell us _AAmericans dont get enough sleepBwhat benefits we can get from enough sleepClack of sleep has a bad effect on our bodyDwhy its difficult for overtired people to fall asleep34Which of the following is NOT caused by lack of sleep?APower sleeping BSleep debtCLack of adrenaline DFunction badly35From the passage we can draw a conclusion that lack of sleep _Ais so common that it isnt worth paying attention toBdoesnt matter for it can be solved by Power sleepingCcan make it easy to fall asleep when one is overtiredDmay make it difficult to fall asleep when one is overtired第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommonWhen you recognize your teen is under stress, how can parents help your teen stay calm before an exam?
