       positive through the cold season could be your best         against getting ill, new study findings suggest.
In an experiment that         healthy volunteers to a cold or flu virus, researchers found that people with a         sunny characteristic were less likely to         ill. The findings, published in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, build on evidence that a “positive emotional style” can help         the common cold and other illnesses.
Researchers believe the reasons may be both objective as in happiness increasing immune(免疫的) function and subjective as in happy people being less         by a scratchy throat or runny nose. “People with a positive emotional style may have different immune         to the virus,” explained the lead study author Dr Sheldon Cohen of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. “And when they do get a cold, they may         their illness as being less severe.”
Cohen and his colleagues had found in a         study that happier people seemed less likely to catch a cold, but some questions remained as to whether the emotional tendency itself had the effect.
For the new study, the researchers had 193 healthy adults with complete standard measures of personality tendency, health-consciousness and emotional “style”. Those who         be happy, energetic and easy-going were judged as having a positive emotional style,         those who were often unhappy, tense and unfriendly had a negative style. The researchers gave them drops through their noses         either a cold virus or a particular flu virus. Over the next six days, the         reported on any aches, pains, sneezing they had, while the researchers collected         data, like daily mucus(黏液) production. Cohen and his colleagues found that based on objective measures of nasal woes(鼻部的不適), happy people were less likely to develop a cold.

閱讀下面短文,掌握其大意,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
Beware of those who use the truth to cheat. When someone tells you something that is  36   , but leaves out important information that should be     37  , he can create a false impression.
For example, someone might say, “I just    38    a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and     39   it for one hundred dollars!”
This guy’s a winner,    40  ? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred     41    , and only one was a winner. He’s really a big     42   !
He didn’t say anything that was    43   , but he deliberately left out some important  44  . That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically     45  , but they are just as not   46    .
Untrustworthy candidates in     47    campaigns often use this strategy. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and   48   three million jobs. Then she    49    another term. One of her opponents runs an advertisement   50  , “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true.    51   , an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of   52   million jobs.”
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s    53   the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the    54   . An advertisement might boast (吹噓), “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples.” It     55   to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.
This kind of cheat happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.

Cold weather can be hard on pets, just like it can be hard on people. Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter as they are. Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors. This can put their pets in danger of serious illness. There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.
Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. If you have to take them out, stay outside with them. When you’re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too. If you must leave them outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.
If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter. They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality. Keep an eye on your pet’s water. Sometimes owners don’t realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can’t get anything to drink. Animals that don’t have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.
【小題1】What do we learn about pets from Paragraph 1?

A.They are often forgotten by their owners.
B.They are used to living outdoors.
C.They build their own shelters.
D.They like to stay in warm places.
【小題2】Why are pet owners asked to stay with their pets when they are out in cold weather?
A.To know when to bring them inside.
B.To keep them from eating bad food.
C.To help them find shelters.
D.To keep them company.
【小題3】If pets are left on their own outdoors in cold weather, they may ___.
A.run short of clean waterB.dig deep holes for fun
C.dirty the snow nearbyD.get lost in the wild
【小題4】What is the purpose of this text?
A.To solve a problem.
B.To give practical advice.

“Show them the money!” That’s what some people are saying for college athletes. They say students who play sports for their school should receive salaries.
Top athletes should be paid because many of them practice full time, Mark Jameson argues. Rico Cannon, a former college football player, agrees. “Nonathletes can get a job for extra spending money, but many student athletes spend so many hours in training that they don’t have time to work,” he explains. “Shouldn’t athletes be able to earn extra money too?”
The students also make money for their schools when people buy tickets to their games. The players should receive some of that cash, supporter Robbie Pokora reasons.
College athletes are about honor and tradition, but they’re also a business. Thanks to ticket sales, there’s money for schools to build new athletic stadiums and give the coaches high salaries. The cash should be shared with athletes. They’re the ones out on the field or court working hard for their school.
The money matter has others crying foul, though. Kaitlyn Rentala argues that colleges should not pay their athletes. Students are in school to get an education. Playing a sport is an extracurricular(課外的)activity, not a job. If athletes need extra money, they can apply for college scholarships(獎學金). Michael Massett is a middle school teacher and a football and a basketball coach. He agrees. “Athletes should be paid with scholarships, like nonathletes are,” Massett explains.
In addition, if colleges pay their athletes, those students might focus more on sports than on their education. “Most students do not become professional athletes after college. If they focus too much on sports, they may not learn the skills they need to get good jobs,” Kate Macrae reasons. Plus, she says, many athletes have schoolships that help them pay for school.
【小題1】What is Rico Cannon’s opinion on paying student athletes?

A.They make money for their schools and should receive salaries.
B.Training leaves them no time to work and they should be paid.
C.Playing a sport at school is not a job and they shouldn’t be paid.
D.They can apply for scholarships and should not be paid.
【小題2】Who supports the idea of paying student athletes?
A.Kaitlyn RentalaB.Robbie Pokora
C.Michael MassettD.Kate Macrae
【小題3】 What does the underlined part “crying foul” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A.Making no progress.B.Giving up beliefs.
C.having different opinionsD.Taking no interest.
【小題4】What’s the best title for the text?
A.Pay to play? —— Will it be popular with college athletes?
B.College athletes make a lot of money for their schools.
C.College athletes can apply for scholarships as their salaries.
D.Pay to play?—— Should college athletes be paid?
