10、express ourselves. Through ones eyes, we can read sorrow, happiness, encouragement, and many other emotions. Eyes are always one of the fastest and most direct organs to reveal your thoughts. Until now, I still remember an unforgettable experience, which happened when I took part in a singing contes
11、t at the age of nine. It was the power of my mothers eyes that encouraged me to go for it. I had shown great interest in singing before that but I was too shy to sing in the public. So one day my mother took me to sign up for the singing contest. With my mothers company and encouragement, I was dete
12、rmined to meet that challenge. Standing on the stage, I suddenly found I had become the focus of all the eyes. I got so nervous that I couldnt even keep my eyes open. When it was my turn to be introduced to the audience and sing, I became even more nervous. I felt my legs were shaking and my memory
13、seemed to have left me, as I couldnt remember anything. Searching for help, I met my mothers eyes which were sparkling with encouragement and strong power. It seemed that they were speaking to me, Come on! Baby! Take it easy. Ill always be with you! I read the message through her eyes and at that mo
14、ment I got my confidence back and began to sing my song. When I came down from the stage, she came up to me, saying, Great! Im proud of you! and gave me a big hug. At that time, I found her eyes filled with tears of joy. Sometimes, you see, just the encouraging eyes themselves can make a shy person
15、brave. l.What does the author mean to do by telling her unforgettable experience? A.To prove the authors view that eyes are another kind of language we use to express ourselves. - 3 - B.To prove that the eyes are very important parts of our bodies.

However, it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes. The main point to remember is that the British often use understatement. Understatement means saying l
18、ess than you think or feel. For example, if someone gets very wet in a shower of rain, he might say. Its a little damp (潮湿的) outside. Or, if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person, someone else might say, She isnt exactly friendly. Understatement is often used in unpleasant situation
19、or to make another person look silly. Understatement plays an important part in British humour. Another key to understanding British humour is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others. They often laugh about the silly and unpleasant things that happen to our everyday life wh
20、en someone accidentally falls over in the street. They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society. They like to make jokes about their accents, the way they dress and the way they behave. Whats more, the British love to watch comedies about people who do not know how to b
21、ehave in society. The comedy series Mr Bean is a good example of this kind of humour. Mr Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in 1990. Mr Bean doesnt talk often, and instead he uses his body movements and facial expressions to make people laugh. Perhaps what makes Mr Bean so
22、 funny is that he does things that adults in the real world cannot do. Mr Bean is popular in many countries around the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humour. Because of this, many people have become familiar - 4 - with the British sense of humour. 1.Why is it diffic
23、ult for foreigners to understand British jokes? A.The British often enlarge the fad. B.British jokes are connected with many different cultures. C.The British try to make out that something is less important than it is. D.British jokes are not as funny as jokes in other countries. 2.How does the aut
24、hor explain understatement? A.By using examples. B.By making comparisons. C.By following time order. D.By describing a process. 3.How does Mr Bean make people laugh? A.By telling funny stories. B.By making jokes about others accents. C.By copying how others behave. D.By using his body movements and
25、facial expressions. 4.What can be the best title for the text? A.British Humour in Comedy B.Humour in Different Cultures C.Developing Your Sense of Humour D.Understanding British Humour 4. Weve all had the experience of wanting to get a project done but putting it off to a later date. So why do we d
26、elay things? Are we built to operate this way at some times? These questions are central to my research on goal pursuit (追求). It all starts with a simple choice between working now on a given project and doing anything else. The decision to work on something is driven by how much we value accomplish
27、ing the project in that moment what psychologists call its subjective value. And delay, in psychological terms, is what happens when the value of doing something else outweighs the value of working now. This way of thinking suggests a simple trick to defeat delay. For example, instead of cleaning my
28、 house, I might try to focus on why grading papers is personally important to me. Its simple advice, but sticking to this strategy (策略) can be quite difficult. People are not entirely wise in the way they value things. For example, a dollar bill is worth exactly the same today as it is a week from n
29、ow, but its subjective value roughly how good it would feel to own a dollar depends on other factors besides its face value, such as when we - 5 - receive it. The tendency for people to devalue money and other goods based on time is called delay discounting. For example, receiving $100 three months
30、from now is worth the same to people as receiving $83 right now. People would rather lose $17 than wait a few months to get a larger reward. Getting something done is a delayed reward, so its value in the present is reduced: the further away the deadline is, the less attractive it seems to work on t
31、he project right now. The tendency to delay things closely follows economic models of delay discounting. One way to manage it is to make the finish line seem closer. For example, vividly imagining a future reward reduces delay discounting. 1.Which of the following best explains outweighs in Paragrap
32、h 2? A.Is equal to. B.Is greater than. C.Is involved in. D.Is central to. 2.What should we do to overcome delay in the authors opinion? A.Avoid setting a deadline too strictly. B.Consider doing nothing temporarily. C.Increase the subjective value of working now. D.Realize great fun of working immedi
33、ately. 3.Which proverb can best summarize the theory of delay discounting? A.Time and tide wait for no man. B.A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. C.One of these days is none of these days. D.Dont count your chickens before they are hatched. 4.What is suggested to deal with delay discounting
34、? A.Asking for nothing in return. B.Lowering our high expectations. C.Searching for instant satisfaction. D.Making future rewards more inviting. 二、七选五 Interested in becoming a skydiver? _ We offer the most comprehensive skydive training in the United States with our AFPAccelerated Freefall Progressi
35、on program. All jumps are video recorded and are used after the skydive for immediate feedback and learning. What is AFP?

40、货物) yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head. Now I am thirty-two. I can still remember the brightness of sunshine. It would be 1 to see again, but a 2 can do strange things to people.

41、 what I had. Life, I believe, asks a continuous series of adjustments to reality. The more quickly a person is able to make these adjustments, the more 4 his own private world becomes.

44、me and I was hurt. I cant use this. I said. Take it with you, he urged me, and roll it around. The words 10 in my head. Roll it around! By - 7 - rolling the ball I could hear where it went.
