20、 as much as I would after what my sister explained to me.She was 45 to a knee injury that 46 me half of my soccer season. I desired to be with my team-mates and 47 each minute I sat on the bench. I tried hard, hoping my knee injury would heel soon. This was what led my sister to buying that CD. Afte

I 50 breathlessly, as the words“Trying hard now. Its so hard now”sounded through the room. It 51 me in

However, the appearance of the full-time “househ

26、usband” is changing traditional family. A survey in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen shows that 22 percent, 73 percent, 34 percent and 32 percent of white-collar male workers, aged between 28 and 33, would be prepared to do the housekeeping if the conditions were right. Yang Wenhui, 32 year

27、s old, worked at the office of a company prefer to quit(離開) the job. “My job was dull and steady. I was not promoted(提拔). My wife, in contrast, really likes her job. So, after our baby was born, I chose to stay at home and take care of the family while my wife works full-time outside the home,” said

28、 Yang. Sociologists have found the full-time househusband emerges in three main situations. Firstly, if the wife is ambitious(有雄心的), well-paid and has good job prospects, while her husband is paid poorly and has no job prospects, it makes economic sense for the woman to become the main income earner

29、 for the household. Secondly, if the wife is tired of household chores and eager to work outside the home, her husband may forfeit his job. Thirdly, if the husband can do his work at home, he may take this choice as it allows him more time to take care of the family. Influenced by traditional ideas,

30、 some families with full-time househusbands prefer others not to know about their arrangement, concerned people would laugh at a husband with “no prospects” or wife who is “too strong”. Zhou Wei said he has become usual to being a full-time househusband although his relatives doubted this when they

31、gathered during the holidays. “A happy life is the most important thing, not other peoples opinions,” added Zhou.56. The reason for Yang Wenhui quitting his job is that _. A. it is too difficult for him to do it B. it is too boring for him to do it C. he is too old to go on doing it D. his wife want

32、ed him to quit it57. In which situation is a man unlikely to become a full-time househusband? A. He can earn enough money to keep family and has a good job prospects. B. He can earn much less than his wife and will never get promoted. C. His wife hates housework and is busy with her work outside. D.

33、 His job can be done at home and he would like stay at home. 58. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. A full-time househusband is a man without prospects in life. B. A full-time househusband is much weaker than his wife. C. A full-time househusband is willing to share his exper

34、ience with his relatives. D. A full-time househusband can also enjoy happiness from housework. 59. The underlined word “forfeit” probably means _. A. appreciate B. quit C. continue D. escape BGoals can help you do，be and experience everything you want in lifeInstead of just letting life happen to yo

35、u，goals allow you to make your life happenSuccessful and happy people have an idea of how their life should be and they set lots of goals to help them succeedBy setting goals you are taking control of your lifeIt s like having a map to show you where you want to goThink of it this wayThere are two d

36、riversOne has a destination in mind which is laid out for her on a mapShe can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turnsThe other driver has no goal or destination or mapShe starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver，but she drives without an aim around，neve

37、r getting anywhere，just using up gas and oilWhich driver do you want to be？Winners in life set goals and follow through on themWinners decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goalsUnsuccessful people just let life happen by accidentGoals arent difficult to setand

38、 they arent difficult to reachIts up to you to find out what your goals and ideals（理想）really areResearch tells us that when we write a goal down，we are more likely to achieveWritten goals can be reviewed regularly，and have more powerLike a contract with yourself，they are harder to neglect（忽視）or forg

43、annot live without sports of some kind. A famous French humourist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain me

44、n shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?Taking all amateur（業(yè)余）and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the United States. The game originated in

45、Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game, or“association football”, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.The next is rugby, which is called“football”in the United States. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players rat

46、her than eleven. In rugby, an oval-shaped ball is used which can be handled as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enj

47、oys great popularity among the British.Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world.Table-tennis, or“ping-pong”,surely is not played on a great scale as it is in Ch

48、ina or Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity. Horse-back riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lot of people.64The main purpose of Paragraph 1 is to tell us that the English .Aare all sports lovers

51、the chest which leaves you sweating and gasping for breath. Recent research from Germany and Italy shows that heart attacks are more common on Monday mornings and doctors blame the stress of returning to work after the weekend break.The risk of having a heart attack on any given day should be one in

52、 seven, but a six-year study helped by researchers at the Free University of Berlin of more than 2,600 Germans showed that the average person had a 20 per cent higher chance of having a heart attack on a Monday than on any other day.Working Germans are particularly not protected against attack, with

53、 a 33 per cent higher risk at the beginning of the working week. Non-workers, by comparison, appear to be no more at risk on a Monday than any other day.A study of 11,000 Italians proved 8 am on a Monday morning as the most stressful time for the heart, and both studies showed that Sunday is the lea

54、st stressful day, with fewer heart attacks in both countries.The findings could lead to a better understanding of what is the immediate cause of heart attacks, according to Dr Stefan Willich of the Free University.“We know a lot about long-term risk factors such as smoking and cholesterol（膽固醇）but we dont know what actually causes heart attacks, so we cant give clear advice on how to prevent them,” he said.Monday mornings have a double helping of stress for the working body as it makes a rapid change from sleep to activity, and from the relaxing
