     It's safe, it's simple, and it works: Drinking right amounts of water can really help you lose weight, new
research shows.
     In what researchers claim is the firstever trial of the effect of water consumption on weight loss,
scientists from Virginia Tech found that dieters who started each meal with two glasses of water lost nearly five pounds more, on average, than dieters who did not,over the course of 12 weeks. There's no shortage of clear evidence about how water might work to control your appetite (食欲). It ____________ so you don't eat so much; it keeps down your thirst so that you don't turn to calorierich sodas or juices. But until
now, the researchers say, there has been no true evidence that water's appetitecontrolling benefits ever
translate into actual weight loss. Now there is. In the 12week study period, dieters instructed to drink
water with every meal lost an average of 15.5 pounds; dieters given no instructions lost, on average, just
11 pounds.
     Perhaps the most surprising thing about the finding is how little we still know about healthy water
consumption in general. In fact, although doctors and public health authorities regularly remind us to drink more water, very few studies give any insight into what our ideal quantity may be.
     The new results today suggest that many people could indeed stand to drink a little more water than
they do. But if you're looking to lose weight, be aware that it is actually possible to drink too much water,
and you probably won't help matters any by drinking too much water at a time. In extreme cases, it can
even be deadly. A couple of glasses with each meal, however, should be no problem at all for a healthy
person.

2. What might your appetite be controlled by? (no more than 3 words)

      Driving cars, trucks and motorcycles is an important part of our lives. We do it every day to get to
work, to school or to friends' houses.
      Driving can be very convenient, but can also cause many problems. Waiting in line at a red light, a
driver may get impatient and decide just to drive right through it. If another car is coming from the other
direction, there might be a terrible accident. Cutting another car off can make its driver angry, so that
driver cuts off someone else. Pretty soon everybody is angry, and impatient.
     Traffic accidents declare millions of lives every year worldwide. In Taiwan alone, over seven people
are killed in accidents every day. The annual death rate from traffic accidents in Taiwan is twice that of
Japan.
      To allow traffic to move smoothly and safely, everybody must follow the rules. Before you drive,

     Many times when children make a mistake,starting with breaking a window while playing football or

blamed by the society for not having known how to educate their offspring(后代).The situation is not that
easy to explain.
     Parents always look for the best interest of their children and many times they are ready to take
measures only for their sake.They know their children are suffering when they are obliged to stay indoors

mistakes over and over again.When a child realizes that his father is talking seriously about him not being
allowed to do something, he understands the gravity(嚴(yán)重性) of his deeds and he knows he will think
twice before making the same mistake again.
     These are the cases of the responsible parents,who suffer when they see that their children are not
happy but who resist the temptation of forgiving them so easily so that they realize the gravity of their
actions not only at present but also for the future.
     On the other hand there are parents who always find excuses for their children's behavior,who never
consider they make mistakes or if they just do what they call"childish"things lacking importance.

     A scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few
minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.
     By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that
those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular,
adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation(誘惑) early were more
likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible(固守己見(jiàn)的).
     Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn't show up on an IQ
test.
     The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists' concerns. But brain
theory can't explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the
face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul.    
     Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it comes to predicting people's success, brain ability as measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once
thought of as "character".
     EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work
together; how one's ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put
intelligence to use. Among the ingredients(要素) for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ
counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.
     While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken
seriously, some few fear EQ invites misuse.
1. The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that         .  
A. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experiment
B. emotional intelligence won't show up until adolescence
C. the ability of self-control plays a role in personal success
D. candy can be used to measure a person's emotional intelligence
2. Which of the following is TRUE of EQ and IQ according to the text?
A. There is no link between EQ and IQ.
B. The higher a person's IQ is, the higher his or her EQ is.
C. Some people can be blessed with lots of both, but some with little of either.
D. Scientists are trying to discover the way in which EQ and IQ work together.
3. The underlined word "upbeat" in Paragraph 4 probably means         .
A. kind      
B. floating      
C. excited    
D. optimistic  
4. Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text?
A. To amuse both the children and readers.    
B. To prove the scientist's wisdom.
C. To introduce the topic of the text.          
D. To show us how to do an IQ test.
5. What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?
A. Information about famous people with high EQ.  
B. Examples showing the opposite voice about EQ.
C. Some reasons why EQ is a relatively new field.
D. Strong demand for basic emotional education.

     In Kansas City, Missouri, a computer helps firefighters. The computer keeps information about every one
of the 350 000 street addresses in the city. When firefighters answer a call,the computer will give them
important information about the burning building: its position, size and so on. In fact, the computer system has
a lot of ways of helping firefighters with the problems facing them. For example, it can give medical information about invalids (傷殘者) living in a burning building. With this information, the firefighters can take special care
to find these sick persons and save them. The Kansas City computer system also keeps a medical record of
each of the city's 900 firefighters. This kind of information is especially useful when a fireman is injured. With
this medical information, doctors can treat the injured firefighters more quickly and easily.

them. Many times the computer information helps to save lives and property. Sometimes the lives are those of
firefighters themselves!

     It is hardly surprising that clothing manufacturers (生產(chǎn)商)follow certain uniform standards for various
features(特征)of clothes.What seems strange,however,is that the standard adopted for women is the
opposite of the one for men.Take a look at the way your clothes button.Men's clothes tend to button
from the right, and women's from the left.Considering most of the world's population-men and women-are
righthanded,the men's standard would appear to make more sense for women.So why do women's clothes
button from the left?
      History really seems to matter here.Buttons first appeared only on the clothes of the rich in the 17th
entury, when rich women were dressed by servants.For the mostly righthanded servants,having women's
shirts button from the  left would be easier.On the other hand, having men's shirts button from the right
made sense, too.Most men dressed themselves,and a sword drawn from the left with the right hand would
be less likely to get caught in the shirt.
      Today women are seldom dressed by servants,but buttoning from the left is still the standard for them.
Is it interesting? Actually, a standard, once set, resists change.At a time when all women's shirts buttoned
from the left,it would have been risky for any single manufacturer to offer women's shirts that buttoned
from the right.After all, women had grown so used to shirts which buttoned from the left and would have
to develop new habits and skills to switch.Besides, some women might have found it socially awkward to
appear in public wearing shirts that buttoned from the right,since anyone who noticed that would believe
they were wearing men's shirts.
1.What is surprising about the standard of the clothing industry?
A.It has been followed by the industry for over 400 years.
B.It is different for men's clothing and women's.
C.It works better with men than with women.
D.It fails to consider righthanded people.
2.What do we know about the rich men in the 17th century?
A.They tended to wear clothes without buttons.
B.They were interested in historical matters.
C.They were mostly dressed by servants.
D.They drew their swords from the left.
3.Women's clothes still button from the left today because____.    
A.a(chǎn)dopting men's style is improper for women
B.manufacturers should follow standards
C.modern women dress themselves
D.customs are hard to change
4.The passage is mainly developed by________.
A.a(chǎn)nalyzing causes
B.making comparisons

     You might have such problems with a friend as follows:
     New friends replace an old friendship. You used to walk home from school with your friend, and
share everything. Now your friend is with someone else all the time and is always "too busy" for you.
One of your friends reveals a secret. You can not believe your ears. The deep, dark secret you shared
with your best friend was repeated back to you by someone you hardly know. Your friend told! Why
has your friend turned against you?
     These things hurt you. They make you feel angry and sad. In each situation your friendship would feel
threatened. When you are upset with someone, it is a good idea to go off by yourself and sort out your
feelings. Go for a walk, talk to yourself, and look at what you feel. Allow your anger to explode where
no one is around to hear you. Then calm down. Think through what you want to say to your friend.
     It helps to stand back and take a fresh look at your friendship. Just because you have been very close
to someone but it does not mean you are linked together or that you own one another. There should be
room in your friendship for other friends, higher achievements, slips of the tongue, sometimes a conflict is
a sign that you need to change the kind of friendship you have.
     It also helps to put yourself in your friend's shoes. What would you do if you found that you had more
fun with a new friend? What if you told your friend's secret to someone when you did not mean to? It is
painful to be the other, too.
1. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How to make friends with others.
B. How to solve some problems you may have with your friends.
C. How to get along with your friends.
D. How to avoid being hurt by your friends.

A. treasures
B. records
C. forgets
D. lets out
3. When you find your friends turn against you, you'd better ______.
A. find a suitable place to explode your anger and then think carefully
B. quarrel with them at once
C. write a letter saying you don't want to be their friend again
D. find new friends, too
4. The author seems to believe that ______.
A. new friends can't replace old friends
