A
When teaching handwriting, one difficulty is teaching the left-handed child. The traditional policy has been to push all children to write with their right hands. Parents and teachers both try to prevent the child from using his left hand. On the other hand, psychologists have clearly shown that some persons are naturally left-handed and that it is much more difficult for them to do any skillful act with the right hand than with the left hand. Some believe, furthermore, that to force a left-hand-ed child to write with his right hand may make him nervous and may cause speech problems. There seems to be some cases in which this is true, although in most children who change over to using their right hand, no negative effects are noticed. In addition to these difficulties, left-handedness sometimes seems to cause mirror writing from right to left and reversals in reading, as reading "was" for "saw. ”
36. Which of the following can be the title of this passage?
A. The problems of the left-handed child
B. Nervous aspects connected with hand-writing
C. A special problem in teaching hand-writing
D. Speech problem, mirror meriting and reversals
37. What does the writer imply according to the passage?
A. Left-handed persons all have speech problems
B. Left-handed children need special consideration
C. Parents should not allow children to write with their left hand
D. Left-handed persons are less skillful than right-handed ones
38. The traditional policy in teaching handwriting has__________.
A. resulted in unsolved problems in English class
B. made many children skillful with both hands
C. resulted in failure to learn to write for the naturally left-handed
D. created possible speech and emotional problems for some children
B
Bicycle sharing systems are also known as yellow bicycle programs, white bicycle programs,public bikes or free bikes. They are increasingly popular in Europe now. Paris has the world's largest urban cycle rental system.
This is a bike rental station in Paris. The workers are showing how to use a new self-service bike. They say that Paris will become "a green capital of bikes" and they plan to park 20,000 bicy-cles at 1,600 stations. Paris created this plan to reduce waste gas displacement(廢棄排放量).
At a rental station, you only have to put your credit card into the machine to rent a bike. It pro-vides French, German, English and Chinese services. If you ride the bike for only 30 minutes to re-lax, you needn't pay for it. A two-hour bike rent only costs you 4 Euros.
These stations work for 24 hours every day, so a bike is rented for 10 to 14 times a day. In this way there are 200,000 people using bikes a day.
In the past few years, Paris has encouraged its people to ride bikes, but something unhappy has happened now and then. Some people break the traffic rules during rush hours. Some park their bikes everywhere. So how to park their bikes is a problem that Pairs will face, but this project is still a helpful way to improve its traffic environment.
39. Why did Paris build many rental systems?
A. To reduce accidents
B. To improve the traffic environment
C. To relax travelers
D. To attract travelers from other countries
40. How many languages does the machine at a bicycle rental system offer?
A. Two
B. Three
C. Four
D. Five
41. According to the passage, the problem that Paris will deal with is how to__________.
A. ride their new bikes
B. park their bikes
C. borrow or lend bikes
D. rent public bikes
C
Most people feel lonely sometimes, but it usually only lasts between a few minutes and a few hours. This kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though,loneliness can last for years. Psychologists are studying this phenomenon in an attempt to better un-derstand long-term loneliness. These researchers have already identified three different types of lone-liness.
The first kind of loneliness is temporary. This is the most common type. It usually disappears quickly and does not require any special attention. The second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result. For example, the death of a loved one, or moving to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year. Situational loneliness is easy to understand and to predict.
The third kind of loneliness is the most severe. Unlike the second type, chronic loneliness usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneli-ness have problems socializing. Unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.
Many researchers agree that the loneliest people are between the ages 18 and 25, so a group of psychologists decided to study a group of college students. They found that more than 50% of the students were situational lonely at the beginning of the term as a result of their new circumstances,but had adjusted after a few months. Thirteen percent were still lonely after seven months due to shy-ness and fear. They felt very uncomfortable meeting strangers, even though they understood that their fear was not reasonable. The situational lonely students overcame their loneliness by making new friends, but the chronically lonely remained unhappy because they were afraid to do so.
Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons. First of all, they are unhappy and unable to socialize. Secondly, researchers have found a connection be-tween chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease. While temporary and situational loneliness can be a normal, healthy part of life, chronic loneliness can be a very sad, and some-times dangerous condition.
42. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Loneliness and illnesses
B. Three kinds of loneliness
C. Loneliness and shyness
D. Three causes of loneliness
43. All the following are true EXCEPT that__________.
A. 37% of the students can overcome loneliness easily
B. temporary loneliness does not need special attention
C. chronic loneliness can cause problems in socializing
D. situational loneliness can cause physical problem
44. What does the underlined word "chronic" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Terrible
B. Deadly
C. Continual
D. Ordinary
45. Why do psychologists want to help the habitually lonely people?
A. To improve their livingconditions
B. To make new psychological discoveries
C. To treat heart disease more effectively
D. To solve their mental and physical problems
第二節(jié)(共5小題；每小題2分，共l0分)

A sense of humor helps us from several aspects. As awareness of the benefits of humor increases,most of us want to get all the laughs we can. It seems that almost every day there is another new discovery about the power of humor to help us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
46.
47 . Many people mistakenly believe that we are born with a sense of humor. They think that when it comes to a sense of humor, "either you've got it or you don't." This is false. What is true, however, is that the ability to laugh and smile is actually something we are born with. For ex-ample, we laugh when we are tickled under the arm, even without thinking about how to react.
A sense of humor can be developed in our life. The parts of the brain and central nervous sys-tem that control laughing and smiling are mature at birth in human infants, but that is not the same thing as having a sense of humor. ( After all, when a baby laughs in his small bed we don't rush over and say, "That kid has a great sense of humor." ) 48 . Don't be nervous before others and try to laugh at yourself--then you will make them laugh too.
A sense of humor means more than telling jokes. Humor includes a lot more than laughing and joke telling. 49 . More than jokes, a sense of humor requires being willing and able to see the funny side of life's situations as they happen. In fact, one of the best definitions of a sense of humor is "the ability to see the non-serious element in a situation".
A sense of humor helps people to better enjoy life. There may be a thousand different ways to express your sense of humor, but joke telling is only one of those ways. As more is discovered about how humor benefits our life, more people will be able to see and enjoy the humor when they are in a difficult situation. 50.
A. A sense of humor is not an inborn ability
B. A sense of humor can be expressed in two ways
C. Your sense of humor is something you can develop over a lifetime
D. Every system of.the body responds to laughter in some important or positive way
E. Life depends on air, food and water, but it is made easier to live with a good sense of humor
F. Many people are worried about no good sense of humor because they aren't good joke tellers
G. Some people doubt their intelligence and emotion because they aren't good at telling stories

Guinea pigs are intelligent and quiet animals. They may develop a close bond with you and may reward you with chirps, purrs, squeaks or whistles. Guinea pigs do not 51 very much if you do not spend much time with them. However, if you spend time with them, they will become more re-sponsive towards you.
Guinea pigs are very active and they enjoy running through 52 (tunnel) and mazes. If you give them a toy, they will play with it. 53 you have more than one guinea pig, you may observe that they like to play games of chase with each other. Guinea pigs are social animals. They like to in-teract with others. However, be 54 (carefully) not to overcrowd their homes. This is because it is very stressful for them and they may attack each other. Do not change their food or environment as
they do not like changes.

Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year. Situational loneliness is easy to understand and to predict.
The third kind of loneliness is the most severe. Unlike the second type, chronic loneliness usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneli-ness have problems socializing. Unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.
Many researchers agree that the loneliest people are between the ages 18 and 25, so a group of psychologists decided to study a group of college students. They found that more than 50% of the students were situational lonely at the beginning of the term as a result of their new circumstances,but had adjusted after a few months. Thirteen percent were still lonely after seven months due to shy-ness and fear. They felt very uncomfortable meeting strangers, even though they understood that their fear was not reasonable. The situational lonely students overcame their loneliness by making new friends, but the chronically lonely remained unhappy because they were afraid to do so.
Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons. First of all, they are unhappy and unable to socialize. Secondly, researchers have found a connection be-tween chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease. While temporary and situational loneliness can be a normal, healthy part of life, chronic loneliness can be a very sad, and some-times dangerous condition.

A sense of humor helps us from several aspects. As awareness of the benefits of humor increases,most of us want to get all the laughs we can. It seems that almost every day there is another new discovery about the power of humor to help us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
46.
47 . Many people mistakenly believe that we are born with a sense of humor. They think that when it comes to a sense of humor, "either you've got it or you don't." This is false. What is true, however, is that the ability to laugh and smile is actually something we are born with. For ex-ample, we laugh when we are tickled under the arm, even without thinking about how to react.
A sense of humor can be developed in our life. The parts of the brain and central nervous sys-tem that control laughing and smiling are mature at birth in human infants, but that is not the same thing as having a sense of humor. ( After all, when a baby laughs in his small bed we don't rush over and say, "That kid has a great sense of humor." ) 48 . Don't be nervous before others and try to laugh at yourself--then you will make them laugh too.
A sense of humor means more than telling jokes. Humor includes a lot more than laughing and joke telling. 49 . More than jokes, a sense of humor requires being willing and able to see the funny side of life's situations as they happen. In fact, one of the best definitions of a sense of humor is "the ability to see the non-serious element in a situation".
A sense of humor helps people to better enjoy life. There may be a thousand different ways to express your sense of humor, but joke telling is only one of those ways. As more is discovered about how humor benefits our life, more people will be able to see and enjoy the humor when they are in a difficult situation. 50.
A. A sense of humor is not an inborn ability
B. A sense of humor can be expressed in two ways
C. Your sense of humor is something you can develop over a lifetime
D. Every system of.the body responds to laughter in some important or positive way
E. Life depends on air, food and water, but it is made easier to live with a good sense of humor
F. Many people are worried about no good sense of humor because they aren't good joke tellers
G. Some people doubt their intelligence and emotion because they aren't good at telling stories
