3.For many people today,reading is no longer relaxation.To keep up their work they must read letters,reports,trade publications,interoffice communications,not to mention newspapers and magazines; a never-ending flood of words.In getting a job advancing,the ability to read and comprehend (47)A can mean the difference between success and failure.Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are (48)D readers.Most of us develop poor reading habits at an early age,and never (49)C them.The main shortage lies in the actual stuff of language itself-words.Taken individually,words have little(50)B until they are combined together into phrases,sentences and paragraphs.Unfortunately,(51)A,the untrained reader does not read groups of words.He read one word at a time with difficulty,often regressing to (52)B words or passages.Regression,namely,the tendency to look back over what you have just read,is a common(53)A habit in reading.Another bad habit which (54)D the speed of reading is vocalization-sounding each word either (55)A or mentally as one reads.
To overcome these bad habits,some reading clinics use a device called an accelerator,which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed.The bar is set a slightly (56)B rate than the reader finds comfortable,in order to"(57)D"him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast,making word-by-word reading,regression and sub-vocalization,practically (58)B.At first comprehension is (59)C speed.But when you learn to read ideas and concepts,you will not only read faster,but your comprehension will improve.Many people have found their reading skill (60)A improved after some training.Take Charles Au,a business manager,for instance,his reading rate was a reasonably good 172words a minute before the training,now it is an excellent 1,378words a minute.He is delighted that now he can go through a lot more reading material in a(n) (61)C period of time.

8.A group of kids at McIntyre Elementary School,in Pittsburgh,Pennsylvania,have created a special bench to make sure their fellow classmates aren't left out on the playground.Called the"Buddy Bench",students can use the seat as a safe and supportive place to let others know they'd like to be included in playtime,but may be too shy to ask.
The concept of the Buddy Bench is simple:Students who want to partake in playground games and activities,but may feel hesitant,can take a seat,which signifies(表明) to other children on the playground that they may need something extra to encourage them to participate.
The idea for the bench came about last year,when Farrell,school counselor at McIntyre Elementary,was conducting a leadership group to help students overcome shyness and gain confidence.Four fourth-grade students came up with the idea for the Buddy Bench in this workshop,and worked with Farrell to draft a letter to present to the Parent Teacher Staff Organization to make the bench a reality.The PTSO approved the students'proposal,and installed(安裝) a bright metal bench with a cheerful sign that reads"Buddy Bench"on the school's playground.
Since it was installed on Nov.16,the bench has been effective.The simple concept has resonated with(引起共鳴) the students,and already has created a better environment within the school community.
"Each day,I go to see the buddy bench working,"Farrell said."The lessons they are learning now will benefit them their entire lives.It is simply a beautiful example of kids wanting to be kind and continue to be kind every day."
32.Who is Buddy Bench created for?D
A.Students who love games and activities.
B.Students who want and continue to be kind.
C.Students who are in Farrell's leadership group.
D.Students who are left out on the playground.
33.Who thought of the idea for the Buddy Bench?C
A.Farrell.
B.The PTSO.
C.Four students.
D.Some parents.
34.What does the underlined word"they"in the last paragraph refer to?B
A.ThePTSO.
B.The workshop members.
C.Buddy Bench users.
D.Farrell and teachers.
35.Which of the following statements can show"the bench has been effective"?D
A.More and more creative ideas have come up.
B.The workshop kids have set a good example.
C.The PTSO has decided to provide more buddy benches.
D.Some shy students have found friends on the playground.

5.Have you ever felt somebody else's pain?You're not alone,with new research showing some people do have a physical reaction to others'injuries.
British researchers used brain-imaging technology (影像工程學(xué)) to show that people who say they feel the pain of others have heightened activity in pain-sensing brain regions(區(qū)域) when they see someone else being hurt.For the study,the researchers exposed 108college students to images(圖象) of painful situations,ranging from athletes suffering sports injuries to patients receiving an injection.Nearly a third said that,for at least one image,they not only had an emotional reaction,but also felt pain in the same site as the injury in the image.
The researchers found that while viewing the painful images,both people who said they felt pain and those who did not showed activity in the emotional centers of the brain.But those who felt pain showed greater activity in pain-related brain regions compared with the others.
"Patients with functional pain experience pain in the absence of an obvious disease or injury to explain their pain.This confirms that at least some people have an actual physical reaction when observing others being injured or expressing pain,"Dr.Stuart Derbyshire of the University of Birmingham,one of the researchers,told reporters.
He noted that the people reported feeling pain also tended to say that they avoided horror movies and disturbing images on the news-so as to avoid being in pain.
The findings were published in the December issue of the journal Pain.

9.The underlined words"a third"probably refer toB.
A.sportsmen experiencing pain
B.the 36 students involved in the study
C.patients receiving an injection
D.the 108 students exposed to the images
10.The researchers observed the students'emotional activity in theirA.
A.brain regionsB.eye regionsC.facesD.voices
11.If you are allergic to pain,you'd better get away fromB.
A.reading journals
B.seeing scary movies
C.listening to the news
D.going to the concert
12.What would be the best title for the text?C
A.Emotional Centers of Your Brain
B.You Can Use Brain-imaging Technology
C.You Can Feel Others'Pain
D.Painful Images to the Researchers.
