22、ding Comprehension (40 minutes, 40 points) Direetions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each of the passages is followed by5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B,C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET . Passage OneSimpl

23、y saying “thank you”may benefit both the recipient and the person who express gratitude, according to the results of studies conducted by researchers at Florida State University in Tallahassee. The studies, published in the latest issue of Psychological Science, found that saying “thank you”strength

24、ens relationships by causing the person expressing thanks to feel more responsible for the recipients welfare. In one study, 137 college students completed a survey regarding how often they expressed gratitude to a friend or partner. Results showed that gratitude was positively linked with the perso

25、ns perception of the “communal”strength. In another study involving 218 college students, expressing gratitude found the expressers perception of the relationships strength over time was boosted. In the third study, 75 men and women were randomly assigned to one of four groups. Over a three-week per

26、iod, one group expressed gratitude to a friend; another thought grateful thoughts about a friend, while a third thought about daily activities and a fourth had positive interactions with a friend. Those who expressed gratitude reported stronger relationships at the end of study than those in the oth

27、er groups. Gratitude, when expressed, boosted communal strength, according to the studys lead author, Nathaniel Lambert, a research associate at the University. He said the findings make sense because “when you express gratitude to someone, you are focusing on the good things that person has done fo

28、r you, ”he said. “It makes you see them in a more positive light and helps you to focus on their good traits. ”Lambert said his research team tested the idea that: “The person doing the thanking comes to perceive the relationship as more communal, to see the person as more worthwhile to make a sacri

29、fice for, to go the extra mile to help out”. Although the studies only looked at the people expressing gratitude, Lambert speculated that, “those who are being thanked will often feel an urge to reciprocate. They will want to express their gratitude back. It can become kind of an upward spiral. ”31.

30、 What does “the person”in the first sentence refer to?A. The recipient. B. The person who say “thank you”. C. Researchers. D. The author. 32. How can saying “thank you”strengthen relationships? A. By making people more ready for the friendship. B. By way of making people who say “thank you”feel more

To show how many people have said “thank you”all the time. B. To present the positive phenomena in society. C. To make the way in

32、 which expressing gratitude helps deepen relationships clear. D. To make it clear that whether expressing gratitude can help deepen relationships. 34. What does the word “reciprocate”mean? A. Thank back. B. Receipt. C. Accept. D. Reception. 35. What does the authors attitude towards “saying thank yo

33、u”?A. Negative. B. Indifferent. C. Positive. D. Horrifying. Passage TwoDoctors say anger can be an extremely harmful emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that angry feelings can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer. Anger is a

34、 normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm, reasonable way. Others burst with anger, losing control of themselves. But still other people control their anger. They cannot or will not express it. For years many doctors thought that controlling ones

35、anger was more dangerous to a perons health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain lets out the same hormones that are produced during tense situations. They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure and narrow the blood vessels. In general, the person feels excited an

36、d ready to act. Doctors said that controlling these feelings only makes the feelings continue. And this can lead to many medical problems. Doctors thought a person could prevent thses problems by letting the anger out by expressing it freely. But recently some doctors held a different view. They sai

37、d that people who express anger too often and violently did become, in fact, more and not less angry. They said this, too, can cause medical problems. Some doctors say that both controlling and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger strongly may be more likely t

38、o develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then de

39、cide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably. ”36. According to the passage, an extremely harmful emotion may lead to all the follow

40、ings EXCEPT _. A. pneumonia B. heart disease C. cancer D. stomach trouble 37. Controlling ones anger was considered to be dangerous to his health because of all the followings EXCEPT that _.

One can avoid his medical problems by expressing his anger freely. C. Ones heart rate will not change if his anger is

42、kept unexpressed. D. One is likely to suffer from high blood pressure in a bit of great anger. 39. When you get angry, which of the followings should you do for the sake of health? A.

Different Ways of Dealing with Anger. B. The Danger of Anger and Its Solution. C. New Medical Discoveries abou

44、t Anger. D. An Argument between the New and Old Views about Anger. Passage ThreeWhat is time? Is it a thing to be saved or spent or wasted, like money? Or is it something we have no control over, like the weather? Is time the same all over the world? Thats an easy question, you say. Wherever you go,

45、 a minute is 60 seconds, an hour is 60 minutes, a day is 24 hours, and so forth. Well, maybe. But in America, time is more than that. Americans see time as a valuable resource. Maybe thats why they are fond of the expression, “Time is money. ”Because Americans believe time is a limited resource, the

46、y try to conserve and manage it. People in the U.S. often atten seminars or read books on time management. It seems they all want to organize their time better. Professionals carry around pocket planners some in electronic form to keep track of appointments and deadlines. People do all they can to s

47、queeze more life out of their time. The early American hero Benjamin Franklin expressed this view best: “Do you love life? Then do not waste time, for that is the stuff life is made of. ”American lifestyles show how much people respect the time of others. When people plan an event, they often set th

48、e time days or weeks in advance. Once the time is fixed, it takes almost an emergency to change it. If people want to come to your house for a friendly visit, they will usually call first to make sure it is convenient. Only very close friends will just “drop by”unannounced. Also, people hesitate to

49、call others late at night for fear they might be in bed. The time may vary, but most folks think twice about calling after 10:00 p.m. To outsiders, Americans seem tied to the clock. People in other cultures value relationships more than schedules. In these societies, people dont try to control time,

50、 but to experience it. As a result, they find it easier to “go with the flow”than Americans, who like plans to be fixed and unchangeable. Even Americans would admit that no one can master time. Time-like money-slips all too easily through our fingers. And time like the weather is very hard to predic

51、t. Nevertheless, time is one of lifes most precious gifts. And unwrap it is half the fun. 41. People in the U.S. often attend seminars or read books on time management, because _. A. “Time is money”B. they want to gain more money when theyve controlled the time well C. they want to get a better cont

52、rol of it since it is a limited resourceD. they want to have more time to enjoy their life42. Which description is true according to the passage about Americans? A. When someone wants to call you after 10 p.m., he would be hesitated to do it. B. Americans would set the time of their work or other af

53、fairs months ahead. C. Even as a close friend, he would not visit your house suddenly without calling you. D. When the schedule is fixed, it will at no circumstances be changed. 43. The phrase “go with the flow”in this passage probably means _. A. follow othersopinions B. flow in the water C.follow

54、the trend D. parrot what others say 44. What can we infer from the passage? A. Americans would be punctual in a crucial appointment. B. Americans never change their schedules which have been set down. C. Americans use little time in time management. D. Other countriespeople may think its silly of Am

55、ericans to be so inflexible in time.45. Which is the best title of the passage?A. Americansoutlook of time B. Time and money C. Dont waste time D. How to manage your time reasonably Passage FourDo Americans have any morals? Thats a good question. Many people insist that ideas about right and wrong a

56、re merely personal opinions. Some voices, though, are calling Americans back to traditional moral values. William J. Bennett, former U.S. Secretary of Education, edited The Book of Virtues in 1993 to do just that. Bennett suggests that great moral stories can build character. The success of Bennetts

57、 book shows that many Americans still believe in moral values. But what are they? To begin with, moral values in America are like those in any culture. In fact, many aspects of morality are universal. But the stories and traditions that teach them are unique to each culture. Not only that, but cultu

58、re influences how people show these virtues. One of the most basic moral values for Americans is honesty. The well-known legend about George Washington and the cherry tree teaches this value clearly. Sometimes American honesty being open and direct can offend people. But Americans still believe that

59、 “honesty is the best policy”. Another virtue Americans respect is perseverance. Remember Aesops fable about the turtle and the rabbit that had a race? The rabbit thought he could win easily, so he took a nap. But the turtle finally won because he did not give up. Compassion may be the queen of Amer

60、ican virtues. The story of “The Good Samaritan”from the Bible describes a man who showed compassion. On his way to a certain city, a Samaritan man found a poor traveler lying on the road. The traveler had been beaten and robbed. The kind Samaritan, instead of just passing by, stopped to help this pe
