Attracting People to You
In West Virginia folklore there is a story of a country doctor. He was 36 late one night to assist a woman who was about to give birth. By the time the doctor arrived at the farmhouse, things had 37 to a point where the doctor asked the husband to help him by holding a gas lantern up high in order to 38 the room.
Before long, the 39 mother delivered a healthy baby boy. As the father 40 the lantern, the doctor shouted an 41 to keep the lantern high: “We’re not done yet.” 42 , a second child appeared on the 43 , a healthy baby girl. Shaken by the unexpected arrival of twins, the father heard the doctor say once again, “We can’t 44 now. It looks as if it’s going to be triplets (三胞胎).” To which the 45 father, still holding the lantern high, replied, “Do you think it’s the light that’s 46 them?”
Light has a quality of attraction. I recently left my office door 47 late one afternoon in our mountain home and, at dusk, the 48 from within attracted a bird!
You, too, have a light that attracts … an inner light. Not 49 to the naked eye (肉眼), but obvious just the same. Some people 50 with a light of kindness. Others emit (散發(fā),發(fā)射) a light of hope.
Almost all 51 are drawn to light, including humans. Do you want to attract people to you? 52 inner qualities can attract people like a warm fire on a 53 night. What will draw other people to you best cannot be 54 in any department store.
You may not always see it, 55 your light is shining through. And it’s one of your most attractive qualities!

I am a person who does not like to wait.I don' t like lines, being put on hold when making a phone call, arriving at an appointment to find that my companion will be delayed and of course, I don * t like waiting rooms.
However, I realize that my agony(痛苦) will not be good for me, as an increasingly, crowded world can only mean one thing—more waiting.
Owing to this, I have taken a measure and decided to turn my disappointment to productive ends.In short, I am looking for what I call "waiting in line books".
These are books that contain material designed for being read in shortened words, so there is no extended story line to lose track of.Another requirement is that they be small enough to slip neatly into my back pocket.
The other day I went to the supermarket.Convinced that the rain would keep most people away, I was surprised to see that the place was crowded with shoppers.Every checkout was open—and jammed! But I could take out my pocket book and go to work.
The more the world demands that I wait, the more I learn from my waiting library.Look at these titles: One Hundred Things Every American Should Know; The Poetry of Robert Frost; Living Thoughts of Leading Thinkers; Still More Toasts.I have learned interesting and enriching things and much knowledge from these books.
On a recent visit to the general store, I placed my order at the counter along with six or seven other people.The one female employee seemed to have her hands full as she rushed about."Just be patient," she said to me.
No problem.I quietly opened my dictionary of prose (散文) and poetical quotations. Perhaps the other customers regarded me as a bookish, lonely soul.But little did they realize that I was enjoying the company of Shakespeare, Thoreau, Homer and Ben Johnson.

No one can change the weather. Nobody can control the weather. But if we read correctly the signs around us, we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting(天氣預(yù)報(bào)).
For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. That many people feel their joints(關(guān)節(jié)) hurt is a sign of wet weather. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is on the way. If you see a rainbow during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in colour, then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come.
Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.
【小題1】Which is true about weather forecasting?
A.Weather forecasting is a way of telling what the weather will be like. |
B.Weather forecasting is a report about the weather. |
C.Weather forecasting is a sign of coming rain. |
D.People can change the weather forecasting. |
A.a(chǎn)way. | B.gone. | C.coming. | D.disappearing. |
A.clear and fine | B.warm | C.rainy | D.cold |
A.Some birds fly high. |
B.A rainbow appears in the morning. |
C.The sunset is mostly red in colour. |
D.Fogs appear in the morning just above a river. |
A.use our eyes and brains | B.study the weather hard |
C.read correctly the signs | D.All of the above |

PART THREE READING COMPREHENSION(30 points)
Directions: Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.
Next time you find yourself drenched (濕透) in an unexpected heavy rain, look on the bright side – it will be a memorable experience. While wet weather may make us feel gloomy, it sharpens the memory and improves our recall. But those who feel in a good mood because it’s a sunny day are able to remember less well, according to memory tests carried by Australian researchers.
Professor Joe Forgas, who led the research, said: “It seems strange but a little bit of sadness is a good thing. People performed much better on our memory test when the weather was unpleasant and they wee in a slightly negative mood. On bright sunny days, when they were more likely to be happy, the flunked it.”
The tests were carried out on shoppers at a store in Sydney, where researchers randomly placed ten small objects on the check – out counter. On rainy days, sad music was played in the store. When it was bright and sunny, customers heard cheery music. This was done to further influence them towards negative or positive moods. After shopping, customers were asked how many of the objects they could remember. Their scores were three times higher when the weather was had and they were feeling angry, compared with those tested on sunny days. The results were published in Journal of Experimental Psychology. A report on the findings said: “They point to a growing body of evidence that the way people think, the quality of their judgments and the accuracy of their memory are all significantly influenced by positive and negative moods.”
Professor Forgas said, “We found that weather – inducted negative mood improved memory accuracy. Shoppers in a negative mood showed better memory and higher discrimination ability.”
A worse mood helped to focus people’s attention on their surroundings and led to a more thorough and careful thinking style, while happiness increased confidence and forgetfulness.
Being happy tends to promote a thinking style that is less focused on our surroundings. In a positive mood we are less likely to make more snap (匆忙的) judgments about people we meet. Mild negative mood, in turn, tends to increase attention to our surroundings and produce a more careful, thorough thinking style.
Accurately remembering everyday scenes is a difficult task, yet such memories can be on importance in everyday life. Surprisingly, the influence of mood states on the accuracy of real-life memories is still poorly understood.
56.What’s the major function of Paragraph 1?
A.To attract readers’ interest.
B.To introduce the theme of the whole passage.
C.To generalize the whole passage.
D.To describe a memorable experience.
57.The underlined word “flunked” in Paragraph2 may mean “ ”.
A.conducted B.failed C.passed D.understood
58.In the research, researchers play different music to .
A.make customers become sadder or happier
B.help customers choose what they want
C.promote customers to buy more goods
D.get customers to make a quick choice
59.According to Joe Forgas, on sunny days, people .
A.will make careful judgments on others
B.tend to pay more attention to their surroundings
C.will have more confidence
D.will have a better recall
60.What can we know from the research?
A.Forgetfulness is rather troublesome.
B.It’s important to feel in a good mood.
C.It’s memorable to experience a rainy day.
D.Gloomy days are good for memorizing things.
