17、her freshman year of college a few years ago, I found myself affected by an unbelievable feeling of melancholy. Clearly, Im not alone. Just last week, The Wall Street Journal reported that more than 90 percent of colleges offer to help moms and dads who are “struggling with the change.”Between Thank
18、sgiving, winter holiday, spring break and summer break, the first one out of my nest has come fluttering back home nearly every month of the year since she has been away. Good friends like to joke that they see more of her now than they did when she was a senior in high school. In the meantime, Emma
19、 calls, texts or e-mails me almost every day. Given all this, missing Emma seems kind of silly; Ive never really gotten the chance. So why, then, have I still felt on some level that Ive experienced a great loss? All summer long before Emma left that first year, I took Emma out for countless mother-
20、daughter breakfasts, lunches, coffees and walks. At the same time, I seemed to find fault with Emma all the time. In my eyes, Emma had spent the weeks leading up to school going out with her friends too much, staying out way too late, making too big a mess, not working enough and, for goodness sake,
21、 certainly not spending enough time with me! Although its taken quite a while to realize what was happening, I now understand that my unhappiness and anxiety are not a reflection of how much time Emma and I spend together. Regardless of how often she comes home, or how many times a day we chat or te

Fierce anger.B. Deep sadness.C. Extreme excitement.D. Great satisfaction.25. Why does it seem silly for th

Growing Pains for College StudentsD. Struggling to Let Go of My DaughterCWhen it comes to losing weight, many individuals
25、 know that the correct amount of exercise paired with healthy eating is the way to go. However, this doesnt stop individuals from employing other small strategies into their routines to help the weight come off faster. The cold water technique uses the understanding that our metabolic(新陈代谢)rate will
26、 need to be increased in order to warm up the water we have consumed.In 2003, a German research team chose to study fourteen participants and found that when they consumed ice water, they were able to increase their caloric consumption. According to thestudy,this consumption was increased by about 3
27、0% for over an hour, resulting in a 100 calorie burn per day with two liters of cold water. Now two liters of cold water a day is quite a lot to consume but for 100 calories burned a day, thats a pretty major benefit considering how much exercise it takes just to burn 100-200 calories off. Unfortuna
28、tely, later on, it was found that the way the study measured caloric consumption was flawed(有缺陷的)and that there wasnt actually a 30% rise in metabolic rate but rather a very small statistical rise in calories spent.Your body will work to bring any cold water that you consume up to the internal tempe
29、rature through your metabolic system. Its like when you place an ice cube into a warm drink, the drink will use up the energy to melt down the ice cube. Your body will use up the energy to heat that water up to match the environment within your body.Drinking ice cold water should not replace healthy
30、 eating or exercise, but it can be used to help you burn away some extra calories.28. When it comes to losing weight, some individuals will _.A. think exercise is the best way to lose weightB. think we should only have healthy eatingC. use some small strategies to help themD. first think of drinking
31、 cold water29. What can be learned about the studies mentioned in the passage?A. The cold water can sharply increase the caloric consumption.B. It turned out that the former study was not entirely correct.C. Two liters of ice water can burn 30% calories.D. The cold water can replace exercise.30. The
32、 author holds the belief in this passage that _.A. drinking cold water can help people lose weight in a wayB. healthy eating neednt be combined with exerciseC. people should drink more cold water to keep healthyD. the study is unbelievable31. From which is the text probably taken?A. Sports newsB. A
33、fashion magazineC. A chemistry textbookD. A science magazineDNEW HAVEN, ConnecticutA surprise awaited students in Yale who showed up for Professor Laurie Santoss class. They got slips of paper that said, “No class today.” There was only one rule for the students unexpected free timehey were not allo
34、wed to study, but to relax. Since exams and papers were coming up, everyone was tired and stressed. At this moment they were touched. With around applause, nine students hugged Santos, and two burst into tears.Yet, cancelling class was not just a break. It was also a challenge, as she was asking the
35、m to stop worrying about their grades, even if it was just an hour. One student went to the Yale University Art Gallery for the first time in her four years at Yale. A group of students went to a recording studio and played a new song. More people were outside, and more were smiling. Thats why about
36、 1,200 students were taking Santoss class, called “Psychology and the Good Life,” the largest class in Yales 317-year history. Even non-Yale students had the chance to take Santoss class. It was offered as an online course and she immediately became an Internet hit.Skyler Robinson, one of her studen
37、ts, was at a loss for a while about what to do during his break, and then decided to take a nap. “It was a great nap,” he commented. Santos designed the class after she realized that her students kept busy through long days that seemed far more depressing and joyless than her own college years. “The
38、y feel theyre in this crazy rat race. Theyre working so hard that they cant take a single hour off. Thats awful.”The ideas behind the class are simple. Santos said, “It is the hope that science can help students find peace among all the stresses and difficulties they face at college.” The lessons in
39、clude showing more gratitude, performing acts of kindness and increasing social connections. The students really wanted to learn to lead a happy life in a science -driven way. Santos also noted the psychological happening of “mis-wanting”, which led people to work towards the wrong goals in life.One
40、 week, Santo asked students to exercise. Another week, she wanted them to get more sleep. They worked hard to keep some new habits. Social science research led to many new understandings of how people find happiness. She thinks her class can change Yale, or rather, not just Yale.32. How did students
41、 respond to the cancelling class?A. They expressed their concern.B. They were at a loss what to do.C. They showed gratitude to the teacher.D. They were eager to study individually.33.

Try the following methods.Try the Memory Palace.For example, if you want to memorize some English words, you might store “furniture, television.” in your living ro

You can use your favorite songs to recreate new songs with information you need to remembe
46、r. 37 Take some deep breaths. 38 If you are stressed you will have a more difficult time recalling information during an exam. You should put some energy into de-stressing but “turning of” stress is easier said than done. Thats why scientists recommend practice tests to you. Practice tests are not o
47、nly a scientifically supported means of improving memory recall but they stand up to stressful situations. 39 If you are feeling distracted, do some exercise. Studies show that those who have exercised for 15 minutes and then complete a memory task, complete tasks faster than those who havent exerci
