13．Many years ago，when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver，I was driving to my parents'home in Missouri for Christmas．I stopped at a gas station（加油站）about 50miles from Oklahoma City，where I was planning to stop and visit a friend．While I was standing in line at the cash register（收款臺），I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas．
I took off，but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car．I stopped and wondered what I should do．A car pulled up behind me．It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station．They said they would take me to my friend's．We chatted on the way into the city，and when I got out of the car，the husband gave me his business card．
I wrote him and his wife a thankyou note for helping me．Soon afterward，I received a Christmas present from them．Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful．
Years later，I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning．In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day，and the battery（電池）was dead．Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership-a shop selling cars was right next door．I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom．
"Just how friendly is Friendly Ford？"I asked and explained my trouble．They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it．They would accept no payment，so when I got home，I wrote them a note to say thanks．I received a letter back from one of the salesmen．No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you，and it meant a lot，he said．
"Thank you"-two powerful words．They're easy to say and mean so much．
35．The author planned to stop at Oklahoma CityA．
A．to visit a friend
B．to see his parents
C．to pay at the cash register
D．to have more gas for his car

B．The couple sent him a business card．
C．The couple offered to help him．
D．He called his friend for help．

C．he forgot to turn off the lights
D．he drove too long a distance．

4．People judge others by what they say and what they do．How you speak to others also contributes to what others think of you．Whether communicating with colleagues and superiors or family and friends，it's beneficial to speak to people politely．（36）EIt makes them more willing to accept what you are saying．
（37）DFor example，"Please close the window"or"Close the window，please"is much more polite than"Close the window"．
Use helping words such as"would"，"could"，"will"and"can"to soften a possible demanding meaning when you want something done．Giving orders as questions makes them more polite．（38）F
Use a soft tone（語氣） when speaking politely．Tone can change the meaning of your words from politeness to anger．（39）GFor example，if you say"I do not want to go"with a stress on the word"not"or"I"and anger in your body language，you will sound less polite than if you keep the tone calm．
Try to pay attention to how loudly you are speaking．（40）CFor example，"I do not want to go"when stated in a low，quiet voice is more likely to be understand as a polite request，than if the same statement is said loudly，like a demand．

A．People should try to be polite to other people．
B．Some words are important in communication．
C．A quieter voice sounds more polite then a bigger one．
D．Use the word"please"every time you make a request．
E．Everyone feels more respected when spoken to politely．
F．"Can I leave now？"is more polite than"I'm leaving now"．
G．Do not stress any words and remove feelings from your voice．

1．Burdens（負(fù)擔(dān)） Give Us Wings
The legend tells us that unlike other animals，the birds volunteered to help God carry the burdens to the destination happily．（61）Unexpectedly （expected），wings replaced the loads afterwards，which enabled the birds to fly．
It's true that everyone，willingly or unwillingly，carries burdens of this or that kind，and I am （62）no exception．I am burdened with （63）endless （end） homework，unsatisfactory performance，and disagreements（64）withmy family sometimes．But（65）as/because/sinceI always focus on the sunny side of life，I see these burdens as opportunities （66）to learn（learn） more knowledge，gain more experience and thus grow more and more mature（成熟的）．
（67）Taking（take） advantage of the burdens properly，we can turn them into wings that help us fly closer and closer to our goals．For one thing，we should treat various burdens differently．Take those worth （68）struggling（struggle） for seriously and let go of the unimportant and unnecessary．For another，once we decide on a worthwhile goal，we should keep the （69）faith（faithfully） that as long as we shoulder any loads with a light heart，we will make（70）iteventually．
Burdens give us wings．

8．"What shall I do，"said a very little dog one day to his mother，"to show my thanks to our  master？I cannot draw or carry burdens like the horse； （61）norgive him milk like the cow…I  am a poor unimportant creature，not worth of keeping．"So saying，the poor little dog hung down his head （62）disappointedly （disappointed）．
"My dear child，F(xiàn)ido，"replied his mother，"although your abilities are small，yet a hearty  good will is enough （63）to cover（cover） all faults．Just love him dearly，and prove your love  （64）byall the means in your power，and you will not fail to please him．"
The little dog （65）was comforted（comfort）．From then on，he tried his be，st to help his master do all kinds of things．
One hot day，after dinner，his master （66）was sleeping（sleep） in an old summerhouse，with Fido  by his side．Suddenly，F(xiàn)ido saw the walls （67）shaking（shake）．He realized the （68）danger（dangerous） and began barking to awaken his master．Upon this the master woke up and had just time to get out of the door before the whole building fell down．Fido，（69）whowas behind，got hurt by some rubbish which fell upon him．His master took care of him with the （70）greatest（great） tenderness．Thus his love and loyalty（忠誠） had the full reward．

5．Forty years ago，F(xiàn)inland was a small country with mediocre（普通）public schools．Today，F(xiàn)inland is still small but no one calls Finland's public schools mediocre any more．
In 2000，the Finns surprised the world when their 15-year-olds scored at the top of a closely watched international exam called the PISA．Finland has stayed near the top ever since，while the U．S．scores around the middle．
Pasi Sahlber g，an official with Finland's Ministry of Education and Culture，is in Seattle this week to share the story of Finland's success，and what states like Washington can learn from it．
Sahlberg's message，although he is too polite to put it so bluntly（坦率）：Stop testing so much，trust teachers more； give less homework； shorten the school day．
On Tuesday，in a room filled with teachers，principals，professors，school-board members and policy makers，Sahlberg joked about the Finns'reputation（名聲） for being a quiet，humble people．"When Finland hit the top of the PISA，"he said，"the biggest disbelievers were Finns．"
More seriously，F(xiàn)inland never set out to create the world's top school system．Instead，he said，the country deci ded in the 1970s that it wanted to ensure that a student's success didn't depend on family background．
"Finland relied on cooperation among teachers and schools，rather than on competition．Rather than judging teachers and schools based on test scores，"he said，"Finland puts trust in its teachers and principals．Teachers develop the curriculum in Finland，and design their own tests．There are no nat ional tests，except one at the end of high school．"
That's just the start．Along with a shorter school day，F(xiàn)innish students don't even start school until they are 7 years old．Many primary schools have a policy against giving homework．
"But Finland，"he said，"succeeded in part by adopting ideas from the U．S．a(chǎn)nd other countries．And those countries，"he said，"can learn from Finland，too．"

32．What might be the author's purpose of writing the passage？C
A．To introduce a Finnish official．
B．To compare the education systems of Finland and the US．
C．To share the story of Finland's success in education．
D．To ask the US to improve its education．
33．People first learned Finland's success in education fromA．
A．its students'performance in an international exam．
B．its international exchange programs．
C．lectures given by Pasi Sahlberg．
D．its small-sized public schools．
34．Which of the following can contribute to Finland's  success in education？C
a．Giving students fewer tests．
b．Giving teachers more trust．
c．Evaluating students'family backgrounds．
d．Creating the world's top school system．
e．Starting school late．
A．a(chǎn)，b，c              B．c，d，e          C．a(chǎn)，b，e           D．b，c，d
35．What Pasi Sahlerg said in Paragraph 7 suggested thatB
A．children should start school as early as possible．
B．competition among teachers might be harmful to education．
C．the US education system is still the most advanced．
D．it is necessary to set up a national curriculum．

3．We've all seen them：perfectly toned famous people on late-night television telling us that we too can develop rock-hard abdominal muscles（腹部的）．It's easy!Just pay 149.99for the Torso Track or 149.75for the Ad-Doer and watch those unwanted inches leave your waist．Americans spend tens of millions of dollars on various products to firm up their fat around the waist．
And did they work？Not necessarily．Independent studies have concluded that most of these products----no matter who approved them or how expensive they are----shape your midsection no better than old-fashioned stomach crunches（仰臥起坐）．Some can even cause injury----like the 518.99Body Shaper-Q8SP，which left electrical burns on some researchers at the University of Wisconsin，La Crosse．Others，like the popular Ab-Doer，typically burn less energy than a gentle walk，according to a study to be published in September by the American Council on Exercise．
The fact is that many Americans don't have the biological makeup to develop an obvious abdominal muscles．They are either unable to get the necessary muscle mass or they can't lose enough fat to make a  difference．Even if the underlying muscles are well developed，all it takes to hide it is one-sixteenth of an inch of fat．That's enough to exclude most healthy women as well as plenty of guys who do crunches every day．
So what works best？In its new study，the exercise experts researched on the results of the popular Ab-Doer．A lengthy TV advertisement promises that just 10minutes a day performing such movements as"Body Boogies"and"Good Mornings"will"help form those muscles the fun and easy way without diets．"Steven Loy，professor at California State University，Northridge，tested the promise by measuring the electrical activity produced by the abdominal muscles during three Ab-Doer movements．He and his colleagues then compared the results with those produced during traditional exercises．They determined  that the muscles were no more active，and in some cases less so，when exercisers were using the Ab-Doer．
Taking a broader approach，researchers at San Diego State University compared 13abdominal
exercises for their ability to develop the central abdominal muscles．They concluded，in a report published in May，that the most effective exercises kept turning the body and worked the muscles the entire time．Among the winners：the bicycle movements----so called because it looks as if you are riding a bike while lying flat on the floor----and exercises performed on the"Captain's Chair"，a product typically found in gyms that helps hold the body in the air while you raise your legs up toward your chest．Researchers suggested that a varied routine of the different exercises could deliver the best results．
21．Which of the following is the most effective in building abdominal muscles？B
A．Torso Track．
B．Captain's Chair．
C．Ab-Doer．
D．Body Shaper-Q8SP．
22．According to the author，it's difficult for many Americans to get visible firm abdominal muscles mainly becauseA
A．how big their muscles will be is determined by birth
B．they change their exercise routine regularly
C．injuries interrupt their exercise frequently
D．they do not put in enough efforts
23．The author convinces the readers by．B
A．describing successful cases
B．presenting findings of researches
C．offering comments directly from exercisers
D．comparing advertisements of products
24．What's the main purpose of this passage？C
A．To sponsor rich healthy lifestyle based on advanced product research．
B．To indicate that diet and exercises are necessary factors for a fit midsection．
C．To promote proven exercise techniques and to advise against false advertisements．
D．To research and develop in order to create the perfect stomach and exercise machine．
