1．As the new semester begins，millions of college students across the country are trying hard to remember how best to write a paper or，more likely，how best to delay that paper．
Procrastination is the thief of time and a lot of students suffer from it．They can spend whole days in the library doing nothing but staring into space，eating snacks，surfing the Internet，watching videos and looking at other students sitting around them，who，most likely，are doing nothing either．
Paralyzed by their habit to procrastinate，they write micro blogs about their fears，asking their online friends if they sometimes have the same issue．But this does nothing to break the spell（魔咒）．
According to a recent report，95percent of us procrastinate at some point and 20percent of the world's population are always procrastinating．The figures are disappointing．Procrastinators are less wealthy，less healthy and less happy than those who don't delay．Procrastinators like to find excuses"to justify their behavior，but BBC columnist Rowan Pelling says they are all wrong．
Many procrastinators tell themselves they are perfectionists who work best under pressure．Pelling says this is nonsense，as work done at the last minute is more likely to have mistakes than work done on time．The behavior of procrastinators often makes them feel ashamed，inconveniences others and annoys loved ones．
Pelling also points out that procrastination feels particularly delinquent（過失的）in a society that thinks of swift action as admirable，and，at times，even as a moral good．
Fortunately，social scientists have thrown their weight behind efforts to understand this behavioral mistake and offer strategies to control it．Piers Steel，a Canadian social scientist and author of The Procrastination Equation，believes human is"designed"to procrastinate．Nevertheless，he suggests a couple of good ways to get through the task at hand．

41．From the first two paragraphs we can learn thatD．
A．procrastination is beneficial to many students
B．many students are under great pressure in their study
C．lots of college students are working hard to write good articles on time
D．many students are getting into the habit of delaying finishing their tasks
42．According to the passage，procrastination probably refers toA．
A．a bad habit 
B．a serious illness
C．a difficult task 
D．a form of entertainment
43．Which of the following statements is WRONG？B
A．Procrastination makes people waste their time．
B．Procrastinators usually complete their tasks perfectly．
C．Swift action is considered as a moral standard in the society．
D．Procrastination is common among people．
44．Which behavior belongs to procrastination？D
A．Never dream away the time．
B．Always complete the tasks ahead of time．
C．Never put off till tomorrow what should be done today．
D．Always wait to work until the"good mood"or"good time"．
45．What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows？A
A．Measures to deal with procrastination．
B．Approaches to handling the study pressures．
C．More examples to illustrate procrastination．
D．Introduction to the book The Procrastination Equation．

8．Humans aren't the only ones getting a buzz from coffee．Caffeine can improve memory among honeybees and lead to better pollination（授粉）．According to a recent study published in the journal Science．
The study was conducted by a team of researchers at Newcastle University in the United Kingdom．They found that the nectar（花蜜） of some flowers，such as those from grapefruit and lemon plants，as well as certain coffee flowers，contains low doses of caffeine．To get bees to feed on these flowers，the team trained the insects to associate food with the smell of the flowers．They also trained another group of bees to feed on nectar from flowers that were sweetened with a sugar，but did not contain caffeine．After 24 hours，the bees trained on caffeinated flowers returned to these plants three times as often as those trained on the sweetened flowers returned to the uncaffeinated plants．
Professor Geraldine Wright led the researchers．"Remembering floral traits （花部特征） is difficult for bees to perform at a fast pace as they fly from flower to flower and we found that caffeine helps the bee remember where the flowers are，"Wright said in a statement．
Improved memory led to the better pollination．That's because once bees sip the caffeine nectar，they continue to look for more coffee plants to pollinate．This also suggests that caffeine plays a role in improving the bees'ability to search for food．
Researchers found that caffeine's effect on the bee brain is similar to its effect on mammals．"The change is similar to that produced by caffeine in neurons （神經元）"associated with learning and memory in the rat brain，"Wright said．
Bee populations have declining since 2007．The dramatic drop in the insects'numbers has serious effects for ecosystems and the farming industry．Bees are needed in the reproduction of crops and spreading wild flower species．Understanding what keeps bees buzzing could help to make sure that the insects are able to remember and pollinate their favorite flowers．

56．Which of the following is mentioned in the passage？C
A．Caffeine has no effect on the rat brain．
B．Bee population has been increasing．
C．The nectar of lemon plants contains caffeine．
D．Bees dislike nectar from sweetened flowers．
57．After reading the passage，John，who works in the farming industry，will probably feelD．
A．annoyed          
B．angry               
C．nervous         
D．excited
58．Which of the following relationship is correct according to the passage？B
A．improved memory-caffeine nectar-better pollination
B．caffeine nectar-improved memory-better pollination
C．improved memory-better pollination-caffeine nectar
D．caffeine nectar-better pollination-improved memory
59．We can know from the passage thatA．
A．the rat is a mammal                      
B．caffeine has nothing to do with memory
C．bees are good at remembering floral traits      
D．Geraldine Wright did the research on his own
60．What section of a newspaper may this passage be taken from？A
A．Science              
B．Education           
C．Culture         
D．Sports．

3．There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages．
On the last day of one voyage，the ship was in a small port．It was winter time，and the sea was very cold，so the captain said to his sailors，"If one of you stays in the water during the whole night，I will give him my ship．But if he comes out before the sun appears，I shall get his wages．"
The sailors had heard about the captain's cheating，so they didn't trust him．But then one of them，who thought that he was cleverer than the captain，said that he would do it．He got into the water，and，though it was very cold，he stayed in it．When it was nearly morning，some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half a mile away．
"You are cheating，"the captain said to the sailor．"The fire's warming you．"
"But it's half a mile away!"said the sailor．
"A fire's fire，"answered the captain．"I have won．"
The sailor came out of the water，and said，"Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages，but you can't cook a chicken．"
"I can，"answered the captain．
"If you cook this chicken，"said the sailor，"I shall work for you without wages for seven years，but if you can't，you will give me your ship．"
The captain agreed，took the chicken and said，"Where's the fire？"
"There it is，"answered the sailor．"On the shore．"
"But it's half a mile away，"said the captain angrily．
"'A fire's fire，'you said，"answered the sailor．"If it is enough to warm me in the water，it is enough to cook your chicken．"
41．The captain got the sailor's wagesA．
A．by cheating him                
B．and kept the money for future use
C．to buy a chicken for himself

C．The captain succeeded in cheating the sailor．
D．The captain knew that the fire the fishermen made was enough to warm the sailor in the water．

D．In order to help the sailor in the water，the fishermen made a fire．
