Life is like potato salad; when it’s shared it becomes a picnic.
When my three children were young, my husband, Roy, and I were very 小題1:.
“Can we go on a picnic, Mom?” my six-year-old daughter, Becky  小題2:. “Please.”
I had said no so many times in the 小題3: months, and I decided the usual Saturday morning chores (日常工作) could wait. To her 小題4:, I agreed.
I prepared a few sandwiches and 小題5:a cooler with ice and drinks and called Roy
小題6:. My eleven-year-old twin sons put the cooler and the picnic basket in the trunk and off we went to spend some 小題7: time together as a family.
About the time I got the lunch 小題8:out on the table, Roy arrived on the 小題9:.
That was one of the happiest meals we ever shared together. The meal was filled with
小題10:. We felt a closeness that had been hidden by work and school 小題11:for so many months. Roy and the boys 小題12:rocks into the lake. Becky fed the ducks and I sat quietly on the picnic table, 小題13: God for blessing me with such a wonderful family.
That night as our 小題14: went to bed, I kissed their cheeks and realized what a wonderful life I had.
As I walked out of the room it dawned on me that even the busiest 小題15: could become a picnic when it’s shared with the ones you 小題16:.
Even though the kids have now grown up and 小題17:from home, I can still remember how I felt that day while sitting at the picnic table.
Maybe today would be a good time to 小題18: potato salad, call all of my grown kids, feed some hungry    小題19:and skipped a few rocks into the lake. Since life is like potato salad, let’s make it a 小題20:.

Like other student athletes, Ray Ray McElrathbey deals with schoolwork, practice and games. But after a long day of studying and working out on the football field, the Clemson University player can’t relax with friends. Ray Ray has to make sure his 11-year-old brother, Fahmarr, gets a good dinner, does his homework and goes to bed.
Since taking responsibility for Fahmarr this August, “I’ve aged dramatically, ” said Ray Ray. “I can’t be running around at all hours, making 19-year-old decisions.” Ray Ray has temporary custody (監(jiān)護(hù)權(quán)) of Fahamrr. Their mother struggles with drug addiction, and they are not in touch with their dad. Ray Ray didn’t want to see his brother go into foster care(收養(yǎng)), where both of them have spent time. The brothers now live together in an apartment near the campus in Clemson, South Carolina.
Clemson Tigers fans aren’t the only people rooting for Ray Ray. Sports Illustrated, ESPN and ABC News have featured the story of the brothers. They have received praise and many offers of help, but Ray Ray attends the university and arrange their life on a scholarship. Under the rules, he can’t accept money or gifts. Coaches’ family members can’t even give Fahmarr a ride home from school.
This changed a few weeks ago, when the National Collegiate Athletic Association allowed Clemson to set up a trust fund for Fahmarr. It will help provide for his basic needs, including food and clothing. However, the brothers can give each other something that all the money in the world can’t buy. Ray Ray says he hopes to instill in Fahmarr qualities of “strength and intelligence”. He says having his brother around is “a great thing, knowing he will grow up right.”

It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents. They say that their parents don’t understand them. They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways, that they are too serious and too strict with their children, and they seldom give their children a free hand.
It is true that parents often find it difficult to win their children’s trust and they tend to forget how they themselves felt when young. For example, young people like to act on the spot without much thinking. It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation. Older people worry more easily. Most of them plan things ahead, at least in the back of their minds, and do not like their plans to be upset by something unexpected. When you want your parents to let you do something, you will have better success if you ask before you really start doing it.
Young people often make their parents angry with their choice in clothes, in entertainment and in music.But they do not mean to cause any trouble: it is just that they feel cut off from the older people’s world, into which they have not yet been accepted.That’s why young people want to make a new culture of their own, and if their parents do not like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speech, this will make the young people extremely happy.
Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents to say, “ Yes” to what you do. All you want is to be felt alone and do what you like. It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents’ control. If you plan to control your life, you’d better win your parents over and try to get them to understand you. If your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility, they will certainly give you the right to do what you want to do.
72.According to the passage, young people prefer to _______.
A.a(chǎn)sk for advice before they really start to do anything.
B.do things without thinking carefully ahead.
C.think in the same way as their parents do.
D.be very strict with themselves
73.Young people like to have clothes, entertainment and music in their way, because ____.
A.they want to make their parents happy.
B.they try to get their parents to believe them.
C.they want to try on something new and look different from the older.
D.they want to test whether they are cleverer than old people.
74.According to the passage, young people want to make a new culture of their own, because _______.
A.they don’t feel they belong to the world of the older people.
B.they do not want to get into trouble.
C.they feel they are as clever as old people.  
D.they want to show they have grown up.
75.If a young man intends to control his own life, it’s better for him to _______.
A.do everything according to his own wish.
B.do everything the way his parents do.
C.do everything beyond his parents’ control.
D.hold himself responsible for everything he does.

   Arguing with your parents is totally natural for teens. From your hairstyle to your friends, to your marks at school, to your television habits, to your future plans, it might just seem like you argue with your parents about everything. While this is not generally a pleasant state of affairs, it is normal and it will most likely pass.
Argue fairly
Arguments between teens and parents generally come about when both parties believe that they know what is best for the teen. Parents have been caring for their teens for over a decade, but teens are quickly becoming adults and believe that they are able to take care of themselves. If you must agree with them, argue fairly by: Allowing each person to speak their mind. Refusing to interrupt others when they are speaking. Sticking only to the topic at hand.
Argue respectfully
No matter how heated things may get during an argument, try to remember that your parents still are worthy of your attention, respect and love. During arguments, be respectful by: Keeping your voice lowered at all times and refusing to shout. Sitting still and staying calm. Refusing to engage in angry actions such as kicking, throwing or hitting anything. Reasonably explaining the reasons for your opinions.
_________
There is a thin line between having a discussion and engaging in an argument, but smart teens know that keeping their interactions with their parents at the discussion level practically guarantees that they will be taken more seriously. No one likes to argue, and the parents of teens can be especially weary of it, so keeping things at the discussion level will work to everyone's advantage.
Arguing with parents is practically a sign of the teenaged years, but out-of-control arguments don't serve anyone well. Before arguing with your parents, decide what type of teen you want to be and what compromises (妥協(xié))you are willing to make in order to achieve your goals. You never know, you might just avoid an argument all together.
60.This passage mainly tells teens______.
A. arguments don't solve any problem
B. arguing with parents may hurt them
C. some tips on arguing with parents
D. how to avoid arguing with parents
61. When arguing with your parents, you should______.
A. make up your mind not to give in
B. show your respect for them
C. express your opinions through actions
D. make full preparations for it
62. Which of the following is proper for the blank in the passage?
A. Take discussion seriously                  B. Argue seriously
C. To be smart teens                     D. Argue only when needed
63. The underlined phrase "be weary of "in the passage probably means_  ___.
A. be proud of   .                      B. be interested in
C. be tired of                      D. be satisfied of
64.It seems that the author thinks teens' arguing with parents is_______
A. normal        B. practical         C. shameful          D. impolite

People often talk as if shyness is a disease or mental condition that can be cured. I prefer to think of it as an emotional disability. It’s something we are born with and something we carry with us in our entire lives. There are many people, however, who seem to be determined to find some way of doing away with their shyness. In my opinion, it’s a waste of time. I don’t mean that we should do nothing about it; quite the contrary, I think we need to separate the basic fact of our shyness from our ability to take part in a social environment.
Look at one of the most famous shy people, Johnny Carson. This man is painfully shy, yet for decades he made a living talking and associating(交往) with different people every night, in front of a national audience. Carson has never done away with his shyness, but he has successfully found a way to deal with it to the extent that he could be, not just a talk show host, but a legend(傳奇) among talk show hosts. Look also at Sally Fields, who has recently admitted her problem with shyness. This is a woman who has appeared in many films, TV shows and interviews, yet in her early years she was so shy that she turned down a lunch invitation from Jane Fonda because she was terribly afraid of meeting her.
I guess that our shyness is there because each of us is born with some insecurity and this insecurity prevents us from reaching out to others the way people with a more open personality do. As we grow up, we allow our social skills to grow and develop. But we are still stuck in kindergarten or elementary school or wherever it was when our shyness took root in our soul.
67. In the author’s view, shyness can be explained as ________.
A. a disease that can be easily cured       B. a not very normal mental condition
C. an emotional disability               D. something we pick up after birth
68. The author believes it’s a waste of time to _________.
A. develop a healthy personality         B. talk with people as much as possible
C. study where shyness comes from      D. look for ways to do away with one’s shyness
69. Which of the following is TRUE of Johnny Carson?
A. He dared to speak in front of a national audience.
B. He did away with his shyness carefully.
C. He was described as a hero in some legend books.
D. He failed to become a good talk show host.
70. The underlined word “insecurity” in the third paragraph probably means “________”.
A. feeling safe     B. feeling supported    C. feeling afraid     D. feeling comfortable

Our spiritual intelligence quotient,or SQ,helps us understand ourselves,and live fuller,
happier lives.
While we’re all born with SQ,most of us don’t even realize that we have it.Fortunately,you don't have to sign up for classes to learn how to improve your SQ.Here are some simple steps that can lead you to this new level of understanding.
Sit Quietly.The process of developing spiritual intelligence begins with solitude(獨(dú)處)and
silence.To tune in to your spirit,you have to turn down the volume in your busy,noisy,complicated life and force yourself to do nothing at all.Start small by creating islands for silence in
your day.In the car,instead of reading or doing something else,use the time to think.At work,
shut the door to our office between meetings,take a few breaths and let them out very,very slowly.Enjoy the stillness in your home after the kids are finally in bed.
Step Outside.For many people,nature sets their spirit free.Go outside to watch a beautiful
sunset.If you are walking with your dog,take the time to admire flowers in bloom;follow the flight of birds;watch clouds float overhead.
Ask Questions of Yourself.Ask open-ended questions,such as “What am I feeling?” “What are my choices?”or “Where am I heading?” But don’t expect an answer to arrive through some
supernatural form or e-mail.“Rarely do I get an immediate answer to my question,”says Reverend  Joan Carter,a Presbyterian(長(zhǎng)老會(huì)的)minister in Sausalito,California.“But later that day I suddenly find myself thinking about a problem in a perspective(視角)I never considered before.”
Trust Your Spirit.While most of us rely on gut feeling(本能的反應(yīng))to realize danger,spiritual intelligence pushes us,not away from,but towards some action that will lead to a greater good.
68.The passage is mainly about_________.
A.what your SQ is and in what way it can benefit your life
B.what your SQ is and in what way it can be improved
C.the relationship between your SQ and your life
D.a(chǎn)dvantages and disadvantages of SQ
69.The underlined phrase “tune in to your spirit” in the third paragraph probably means______.
A.get your spirit relaxed    B.keep up your spirit
C.keep seated quietly D.change your spirit
70.The author mentions the example of Reverend Joan Carter to show that_________.
A.there are no immediate answers to your questions
B.e-mails can’t keep working out a problem
C.the more questions you ask,the better answers you’ll get
D.changing your way of thinking might help you solve a problem
71.From the passage,we can know that the most important thing to improve your SQ is________.
A.a(chǎn) peaceful mind             B.deep thought
C.spare time and hobbies   D.good spirits

There is an old saying:No one thinks he’s a bad driver. Here’s an updated 21st century version: No one thinks he sends annoying (令人煩惱的) e-mails.
But, plenty of us do.
A Princeton University research found that 22 per cent of Americans say e-mail has added to their work pressures and caused misunderstandings. Here’s a guide on e-mail etiquette (禮節(jié)) to help you avoid being annoying.
Experts say there are three types of e-mails with different rules-close friends, office and public e-mails.
The close friends e-mail
You can send your lover, your closest friends and your siblings (brothers and sisters) anything, from jokes to “you got to see this!”. But bear in mind that not everyone shares your sense of humour and you may expose them to viruses.
The office e-mail
Don’t add to people’s workload. Keep e-mails short and to the point.
◆Make the subject line factual and brief.
◆Write in clear, concise (簡(jiǎn)練的) sentences.
◆Provide your name and phone number at the end.
The public e-mail
Occasionally we have to send an e-mail to a group of people. If possible, write your public e-mails with a who, what, when, where structure. For example:
Who: All members of the soccer team
What: Team photo
When: Saturday, March 25, at noon
Where: Playing field 2.
Finally, before you hit “Send”, check the following:
◆Is the e-mail a “flame”? Never send an e-mail in anger, It could stay around forever and haunt (縈繞心頭) your professional and personal life.
◆Check the “To” field. Is this really who you want to send the message to?
◆Spell-check the message. Does it have an error that can affect you badly?
68. The writer may want to tell the reader that _____.
A. mails online are often sent to wrong places
B. different e-mails should be written in different ways
C. sending office e-mails is sure to add to people’s workload
D. the public e-mail is usually sent to a large number of people
69. According to the writer, _____.
A. e-mails with some misspellings may hurt the receiver
B. before sending an e-mail, the sender should ask someone to check it
C. jokes sent to a close friend online sometimes may be harmful
D. about 80% of Americans like sending and receiving e-mails
70. If an e-mail is a “flame”, the sender of it must be very _____ at the moment.
A. angry                         B. excited              C. worried                     D. disappointed

True love and kindness is needed in this world. It comes from appreciating the object, and rejoicing in the object, wanting the object to be happy and well, but holding it lightly, not tightly. And this goes for possessions too. You are in an extremely materialistic society in which the possession of more and bigger and better is held up as the total criteria(標(biāo)準(zhǔn)) for being happy.
What we own is not the problem; it’s our attitude towards our possessions. If we have something and we enjoy it, that’s fine. If we lose it, then that’s OK. But if we lose it and we are very attached to it in our heart, then that’s not fine. It doesn’t matter what the object is, because it’s not the object which is the problem. The problem is our own inner grasping mind that keeps us bound to the wheel, and keeps us suffering. If our mind was open and could just let thing flow naturally, there would be no pain. Do you understand? We need our everyday life to work on this, to really begin to see the greed of attachment in the mind and gradually begin to lessen and lessen it.
There is a famous story of a coconut, which is said to be used in India to catch monkeys. People take a coconut and make a little hole just big enough for a monkey to put its paw through. And inside the coconut, which is nailed to a tree, they have put something sweet. So the monkey comes along, sees the coconut, smells something nice inside, and he puts his hand in. he catches hold of the sweet inside, so now he has a fist. But the hole is too small for the fist to get out. When the hunters come back, the monkey is caught. But of course, all the monkey has to do is let go. Nobody’s holding the monkey except the monkey’s grasping greedy mind. Nobody is holding us on the wheel; we are clinging to it ourselves. There are no chains.
54. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A. Clinging Causes the Pain                       B. Don’t Learn from the Monkey
C. Giving Up is Holding                               D. Possessions are Pains
55. According to the first paragraph, which of the following statements is true?
A. The world now is lacking in true love.
B. Owning more means being happier in today’s society.
C. Today’s society is very realistic.                    
D. The society needs better criteria.
56. According to the passage, the monkey is caught because___________      .
A. the hunter is cleverer than the monkey   
B. the monkey wants to eat the sweet
C. the hole is too small for the monkey’s fist
D. the monkey doesn’t know giving up
57. Why did the author tell the story of the monkey?
A. Because he liked monkeys very much.
B. Because the story is very interesting.
C. Because he wants to explain the idea further.
D. Because he wants to make the passage attractive.
