In the 1960s,medical researchers Thomas Holmes and Richard Rahe developed a checklist of stressful events. They found out that any major change can be stressful. Negative events like “serious illness of a family member” were high on the list, but so were some positive life-changing events, like marriage. When you take the Holmes-Rahe test you must remember that the score does not show how you deal with stress—it only shows how much you have to deal with. And we now know that the way you deal with these events has a great effect on your chances of staying healthy.

By the early 1970s,hundreds of similar studies had followed Holmes and Rahe. And millions of Americans who work and live under stress worried over the reports. Somehow, the research got boiled down to a memorable message. Women's magazines ran headlines like “Stress causes illnesses”.If you want to stay physically and mentally healthy, the articles said, avoid stressful events. But such simplistic advice is impossible to follow. ven if stressful events are dangerous, many—like the death of a loved one—are impossible to avoid. Moreover, any warning to avoid all stressful events is a prescription(處方) for staying away from opportunities as well as trouble. Since any change can be stressful, a person who wanted to be ?completely? free of stress would never marry, have a child, take a new job or move.?

The idea that all stress makes you sick also takes no notice of what we know about people. It is supposed that we're all weak and passive in the face of difficulty. But many come through periods of stress with more physical and mental strength than they had before. We also know that a long time without change or challenge can lead to boredom, and physical and mental damage.?

The result of Holmes-Rahe's medical research tells us _______.?

A. the way of dealing with major events may cause stress?

B. what should be done to avoid stress?

C. what kind of event would cause stress?

D. how to deal with sudden changes in life?

The studies on stress in the early 1970's led to_______.?

A. widespread worry over its harmful effects?

B. great fear about the mental problems it could cause?

C. a deep research into illnesses connected with stress?

D. popular avoidance of stressful jobs?

According to the passage people who have experienced ups and downs may become_______.

A. discouraged when faced with difficulty

B. physically and mentally weak?

C. more experienced in the face of difficulty

D. uninterested in what happens to them?

What's the purpose of writing the text??

A. To tell people the discoveries about stress.?

B. To tell people how to keep healthy.?

C. To help people avoid stressful events.?

D. To help people view stress properly.

Ⅲ. 閱讀（共兩節(jié)，滿分40分）
第一節(jié)：閱讀理解（共15小題；每小題2分，滿分30分）
閱讀下面短文，掌握其大意，然后從41—55各題所給的四個選項（A、B、C、D）中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
(A)
We're all connected. You can send an e-mail message to a friend, and your friend can pass it on to one of his or her friends, and that friend can do the same, continuing the chain. Eventually, your message could reach just about anyone in the world, and it might take only five to seven e-mails for the message to get there.
Scientists recently tested that idea in a study involving 24,000 people. Participants had to try to get a message forwarded to one of 18 randomly chosen people. Each participant started by sending one e-mail to someone they knew. Recipients could then forward the e-mail once to someone they knew, and so on.
Targets, who were randomly assigned by researchers from Columbia University in New York, lived in 13 countries. They included an Australian police officer, a Norwegian veterinarian, and a college professor.
Out of 24,000 chains, only 384 reached their goal. The rest petered out, usually because one of the recipients was either too busy to forward the message or thought it was junk mail.
The links that reached their goal made it in an average of 4.05 e-mails. Based on the lengths of the failed chains, the researchers estimated that two strangers could generally make contact in five to seven e-mails.
The most successful chains relied on casual acquaintances rather than close friends. That's because your close friends know each other whereas your acquaintances tend to know people you don't know. The phenomenon, known as the strength of weak ties, explains why people tend to get jobs through people they know casually but aren't that close to.
So, start networking and instant messaging now. As they say in show business: It's all about who you know.
41. If you want to get into touch with a stranger in the world, how many e-mails might it take for the message to reach him/her?

A. 5 to 7
B. 18
C. 13
D. 384
42. Which of the following is Not true about the test?
A. 24,000 people took part in the study and sent e-mails to people they knew.
B. The 18 targets were chosen by chance.
C. About 98.4% of the mails didn’t reach their goal because some people were too busy or they mistook the message for junk mail.
D. The targets come from 13 countries, such as Australia, Norway and New York.
43. What does the word “estimate” mean in the passage?
A. make sure
B. suppose
C. think over
D. imagine
44. Why do people tend to get jobs more easily through casual acquaintances than close friends?
A. Because close friends don’t talk with each other so much.
B. Because casual acquaintances can help you know more people and make more friends.
C. Because close friends don’t spend so much time gathering together.
D. Because casual acquaintances are kinder and more willing to help others.
45. In which part of a newspaper will readers read this passage?
A. Culture
B. Entertainment
C. Information and Technology
D. Health

In order to grow as a writer, you've got to be willing to risk it and every time you sit down to write. You've got to open and brave and curious. Whenever I'm asked, "When did you become a poet?" I'm always tempting to say, "When did you stop?"
We're all born poet. We all enjoy the sounds of language. Every new parent know that. We're all born with the need to "sound our barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world" as Whitman would have it.
Poetry is a natural part of our lives. It's not just everything we have to memorize and reciting in front of the class. Losing ourselves in a poem is one of the better ways of find out who we are. The act of writing brings us to that point of discovery, of discovering something we didn't know we knew when we wrote it.
