B 4 Birthdays often involve surprises. But this years surprise on the birthday of the great British playwright William Shakespeare is s
19、urely one of the most dramatic. On April 22, one day before his 441st birthday anniversary( 周年纪念日), experts discovered that one of the most recognizable portraits(肖像) of William Shakespeare is a fake. This means that we no longer have a good idea of what Shakespeare looked like. Its very possible th
20、at many pictures of Shakespeare might be unreliable because many of them are copies of this one, said an expert from Britains National Portrait Gallery. The discovery comes after four months of testing using X-rays, ultraviolet light, microphotography and paint samples. The experts from the gallery
21、say the image commonly known as the Flower portrait was actually painted in the 1800s, about two centuries after Shakespeares death. The art experts who work at the gallery say they also used modern chemistry technology to check the paint on the picture. These checks found traces of paint dating fro
22、m about 1814. Shakespeare died in 1616, and the date that appears on the portrait is 1609. We now think the portrait dates back to around 1818 to 1840. This was when there was a renewed interest in Shakespeares plays, Tarnya Cooper, the gallerys curator (馆长), told the Associated President. The fake
23、picture has often been used as a cover for collections of his plays. It is called the Flower portrait because one of its owners, Desmond Flower, gave it to the Royal Shakespeare Company. There have always been questions about the painting, said David Howells, curator for the Royal Shakespeare Compan
24、y. Now we know the truth, we can put the image in its proper place in the history of Shakespearean portraiture. Two other images of Shakespeare, are also being studied as part of the investigation (调查) and the results will come out later this month. 24. What makes the birthday of Shakespeare dramati
25、c this year? A. It was found that he painted a portrait in 1814 instead of in 1609. B. The Flower portrait has been found to be a fake. C.

28、 know which portrait is reliable. B. Maybe we cannot find a real portrait of Shakespeare. C. If the two portraits are found to be false, they will test more. D. For now what Shakespeare really looked like will remain a mystery. C A popular saying goes, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but bone
29、s will never hurt me.” However, thats only really true. Words have the power to build up or tear us down. It doesnt matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves - the positive and negative effects are just as lasting. We all talk to ourselves sometimes. Were usually too embarrassed to adm
30、it(承认) it, though. In fact, we really shouldnt be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit. This self-talk helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. Be aware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to
31、be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying Good job! Often, words come out of ou
32、r mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar way. Howev
33、er, harsh and critical language will most probably cause the clerk to be defensive(防卫的). Words have power because of their lasting effect. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it loving? Is it needed? I
34、f what we want to say doesnt pass this test, then its better left unsaid. Words have power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem(自尊) and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those thin
35、gs. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours. 28. The main idea of the first paragraph is that .

A. encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offers B. negative words may stimulate us to make more progress
38、C. people tend to remember friendly words D. it is better to think twice before talking to others D Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that its painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During
39、 the hours when you labor(努力) through your work you may say that youre “hot”. Thats true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has
40、 discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues（自言自语）as: “Get up, John! Youll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what the
41、se energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You cant change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe youre sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract（对抗）your cycle to some
42、 extent by habitually(习惯地) staying up later than you want to. If our energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This wont change your cycle, but youll get up steam（鼓起干劲）and work better at your low point. Get off to a slow start whi
43、ch saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn(哈欠) and stretch( 伸懒腰). Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. 7 Whenever possible, do routine(常规) work in the afternoon and save
