around their mothers quietly, it is easy to tell that they are nervous. Mothers also know that they can calm the
child with a touch on the cheek or a gentle word.
It seems that we come into the world with a set of gestures already programmed into us. Everybody,
regardless of country, race or religion, can look surprised, smile or cry. It also seems that we can recognize
our mothers" voice even before we are born. Even a newborn baby will look in the direction of its mother"s
voice when she is not in sight. Feeding time also means a time when babies and mothers can get closer. The
baby can watch the mother"s face at the same time.
Babies are also excellent observers of facial (of the face) expressions and learn from mothers" reaction
whether something is to be feared or not. This is often why first babies are more timid (胆小的) and less
relaxed than their later brothers and sisters. The mother is obviously more worried with her first baby but by
the time the second arrives she will have gained confidence.
Babies never want to be left out of any activity. Even small babies will cry until they can see what is going
on around them. Babies learn to communicate quite early with gestures. They point to things and get rewarded
when those things are given to them. They laugh during a game and are rewarded when the game is continued.
They smile at strangers and are rewarded by being picked up and held in their arms. So learning the body
language of the children is as important and rewarding as studying that of another culture.
B. Get near to their mothers silently.
C. Close their eyes and shake their head.
D. Point to things they are afraid of.
B. habit
C. voice
D. Gestures
B. Babies understand what their mothers are thinking about
C. Babies will be more timid if their mothers are confident
D. Babies are easily influenced by their mothers
B. facial expressions
C. touching on the cheek
D. making noise

Generally speaking, the rich are happier because money can buy them goods and services and it is the
consumption (消费) of these materials that increases one"s enjoyment of life. Especially nowadays, money
seems to be one thing that drives the people around. "Human beings live for money while birds die for food."
-a well-known Chinese saying is quite quotable (适宜引用的) to explain the present society. Some people try
every means to make money at the cost of others" interests. These people harm others to benefit themselves.
They think the more money they make, the happier they will be.
In addition to money, people"s happiness was affected by other factors. High age is what many Chinese
are dreaming of. Longevity is the very term that people often use to pray for their dears and elders. So there
are many books and theories that introduce the way of living longer. Dancing, jogging, dieting, even singing
and shouting together are said to do good to one"s health.
However, some people think that high spirits is the most important to the quality of one"s life. If you are
in high spirits, you"ll find everything pleasing and comfortable in life: warm sunshine, blue sky, white clouds,
happy birds, comfortable breeze (gentle wind), sweet smiles, and so on. You seem to have friends across the
world. Your life will be happy at every moment. You will be in good health and can make more money if you
live longer.
In one word, let"s keep ourselves in high spirits, therefore we could keep longevity and make considerable
money at the same time.
B. to live is to make more money
C. the more money people make, the longer they will live
D. people will die for making more money, just as birds die for food
B. they can gain all the things in the world
C. the consumption can increase their enjoyment of life
D. they help the poor by giving them a lot of money
B. high spirits
C. high age
D. high income
B. good mood
C. wealth
D. a high age
people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal advisors give
them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants (被告). But in the executive
(行政的; 管理的) circle, beauty can become a liability.
While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a
woman. Handsome male executives were considered as having more honesty than plain (平常的,不漂亮的)
men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success. Attractive female executives were considered to
have less honesty than unattractive ones; their success was connected not with ability but with factors such
as luck. All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than
the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was
connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.
Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine
and an attractive man more manly than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage
in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the "manly"
qualities required.
This is true even in politics. "When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women
differently," says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political
candidates. She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one
of women, of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices.
They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them.
The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but the women who had
ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.
B. advantage
C. misfortune
D. trouble
B. strengthens the qualifies required
C. is of no importance to women
D. often enables women to succeed quickly
B. is more of a disadvantage than an advantage to women
C. affects men and women alike
D. has as little effect on men as on women
B. supportive
C. old-fashioned
D. one-sided
B. discuss the disadvantages of women being attractive
C. demand equal rights for women
D. state the importance of appearance
Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.
More and more mothers have joined it and have benefited from it. What attracts them most is the idea that you
pay your babysitter not in cash, but in paper cards. When you join the babysitting pool, you are given thirty
cards, which are worth 30-minute babysitting time each. For each half an hour while you are gone, th
e babysitter gets paid one card.
There are rules regulating this service. You should not watch more than three kids at a time including your
own. On big holidays, such as Christmas and Thanksgiving, the babysitter should be paid twice as much,
which means two cards for every half an hour. When you leave the babysitting pool, you should return all the
cards. If you are out of cards, you cannot use money instead. You should have to baby-sit for others to earn
enough cards so that you will have them handy when you yourself need a babysitter.
Many mothers think highly of this service. It keeps children in constant touch with one another, and makes
life easier for the mothers. Since in most cases, the babysitter is the mother who watches other kids at her
own home, it is still possible for her to do her own things while the kids play with each other. In fact most
mother babysitters find that their own kids are less of a monster and easier to watch when they are around
other playmates. Moreover, since the babysitting pool service does not involve money, it will not be a financial
loss to the family.
In the past year, the babysitting pool has helped so many mothers with their work that they all think that it
is indeed a good community service worth keeping.
documentary (纪录片) Open wide last Tuesday was excellent for people like me. However, none of my
school friends watched it because they didn"t know it was on. Why can"t television companies let us
know about such important programmes in advance?
This pragrammes was important because it showed how methods for helping people with toothache
have developed over the centuries. If you think visiting the dentist today is an uncomfortable experience,
just be grateful you didn"t live 200 years ago! Then, the programmes told us, the only cure for toothache
was removing the tooth. There weren"t any dentists, so the person who cut your hair also pulled out
your bad teeth, and there was nothing to stop you feeling the pain.
The programme has also completely changed my attitude to looking after my teeth. My parents were
always saying to me things like, "Don"t eat too many sweets." And, "Brush your teeth after meals." But I
never paid much attention. Now I"ve seen what damage sugar can do, especially if I don"t use a toothbrush
regularly. I"m going to change my habits. Many people would benefit from a repeat of this programme.

Even if you are an experienced backpacker or climber, you need to know what to do if something goes
wrong. It is not that Alaska is that much more dangerous than other places. It is no more hazardous than
elsewhere, as long as the proper precautions (预防措施) are taken. So, being prepared is important to a safe
trip.
First of all, make sure you pack everything you will need for your trip. Even if you are traveling by car,
pack clothers and gear (用具) for backpacking. Because of the extreme weather, cars break down frequently.
Pack a coat, gloves, a hat, snow-pants, sleeping bags, candles, a flashlight, and high-energy food.
If you are traveling by car, also pack extra belts, a spade, and a chain (铁链). If you are camping or
hiking, make sure you know how to avoid bears. If you are lost in the forest, there is no doubt that you will
encounter (遇到) them.
However, there is no need to be nervous. Just take these precautions: make noise as you walk, bears will
avoid you; cook your food away from where you sleep, and store your food away from where you sleep, so
the bears are not attracted. Both of these should keep the bears away. However, if you do encounter a bear,
there are two different schools of thought. One is to make noise and scare the bear away. The other is to
stand still and speak softly to get the bear to leave. If you are dealing with a brown bear, you can climb a tree,
since they cannot follow. But black bears can climb. If for some reason the bear attacks, play dead. Try to
protect your head and neck, and hopefully the bear will leave its “dead” prey (捕获物).
A. interesting
B. dangerous
C. wonderful
D. important
B. the weather is always bad in Alaska
C. you should take what you need for your trip
D. cars break down often while traveling
A. trying to make noise as you walk
B. saying something to the bear in a soft voice
C. using a club to scare the bear away
D. pretending to be dead when you are in danger
B. the very dangerous bears in Alaska
C. how to prevent your cars from being attacked by a bear
D. how to protect yourself when in trouble
