6."Some secrets are hidden from health,"wrote John Updike in his poem"Fever".
I have experienced the truth of Updike's observation.My excellent health kept me from seeing some things-things that became secrets of sort.
One relates to my son Chris.When I lost my health in March,I discovered something I had missed about him.
Christopher has been a scholar and athlete through high school.He has behaved responsibly,engaged in community service.He has had an impressive peer group of serious students.
While I saw these things,I had missed before what I experienced while in hospital. Early on,Christopher offered the clearest and most forceful words about my need to be positive and to fight acute leukemia(急性白血病).He never left the room after a visit without making me promise that I would be mentally tough and positive.
During the first week,he showed his own mental toughness,researching leukemia and learning what the chances were.He even stopped my doctor outside the room,introduced himself and asked directly what he thought of my chances.He processed the answer without overreaction.
Christopher did tell me seriously against my choice of words the first week at home.I had moved back into my room from weighing myself,discovering a thin figure I did not know.I announced to him and my wife,"dead man walking".I thought it was a way to lighten the obvious.He saw it as negativity and was strongly against such thinking and talking.
When I resisted taking medicine sometimes,Christopher formed a"good-cop-bad-cop"team with his mother.Betsy gently and patiently encouraged.He directly and forcefully insisted.He always made the logical arguments for why I needed to take some awful pills.
My health had hidden something from me; my ill-health helped me to see it.

24.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 indicates that the authorB.
A.knew little about his son until in hospital
B.got to know more about his son while in hospital
C.had no chance of knowing more about his son
D.hardly remembers what happened in the hospital
25.What did Christopher do when the author was in hospital?B
A.He told the author not to say anything wrong.
B.He always encouraged the author to be confident.
C.He offered some suggestions to the doctor.
D.He tried to get help from community service.
26.What does"good-cop-bad-cop"in the text refer to?C
A.A trick to force the author to obey.
B.A measure to keep the author happy.
C.A joint effort to persuade the author both kindly and forcefully.
D.A friendly way to make the author see what was good for him.
27.What may be the best title for the text?A
A.Secrets Hidden from Health
B.Unexpected Love
C.Lessons from Ill-health
D.Discovery Made in Hospital.

9.Life in the Internet age is lonely-or is it?That's what experts in human interaction are debating after a new Stanford University survey has been published.
    According to the study,the more time people spend online,the less they can spare for real-life relationships with family and friends.The researchers asked 113 people about the Web's influence on daily activities.36% of those people are online for more than five hours a week."As Internet use becomes more widespread,it will have an increasingly isolating (孤立的) effect on society,"says Robert Kraut,one of the researchers.
    Scholars and Web lovers criticized the study for stretching its data to make the"isolating"point.While 13% of regular Web users admitted the loss of time with loved ones,60% reported watching less TV.The survey also shows that E-mail is the most popular online activity,If some of webheads (網(wǎng)蟲(chóng))spend what was once passive TV time keeping company with friends via E-mails,"that's a move toward greater connectedness,"says Paul Resnick,a professor at the University of Michigan.
This isn't the first claim that the Web should be criticized,A 1998 report monitored 73Pittsburgh-area families'Net use for a year.People who used the Internet more"talked less to family members and reported being lonelier and more depressed."says Robert Kraut.
"It's true that there have been big declines in social connectedness over the past decades,but those declines began before the Internet was invented,"says Thomas Putnam.
    As Amitay Etzioni says,the Internet gives us a different kind of social life-not better or worse than before,but just different.

28.Who claimed that the Web had negative influence?A
A.Robert Kraut.B.Paul Resnick.C.Thomas Putnam.D.Amitay Etzioni.
29.The underlined word"This"in Para.4 refers toA.
A.the study conducted by Stanford University
B.the survey made by the University of Michigan
C.the conclusion in a report written in 1998
D.the opinion expressed in Bowling Alone
30.From the passage we learn thatC.
A.watching TV used to take time away from staying online
B.36% of web users spend more than five hours a week online
C.the Web was blamed more than once for causing an isolating effect
D.the Web has the same influence as telephones and televisions
31.The passage mainly discussesB.
A.how we can make a better use of the Internet
B.whether the Internet causes an isolating effect
C.how declines in social connectedness appear
D.what a different life the Internet brings to us.

10.According to a recent study out of the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton school,men with shaved heads are considered to be more manly,powerful and successful than those with longer hair or thinning(稀疏的)hair.Besides,in some cases,they are considered to have greater leadership potential (潛力).That may explain why the power-buzz look has become popular among business leaders in recent years.
Albert Mannes,Wharton management lecturer,said he was encouraged to do the research after noticing that he was treated with more respect when he shaved off his own thinning hair.
Mannes did three experiments to test people's impressions of men with shaved 344 subjects photos of the same men in two versions:one showing the men with hair and the other showing them with their hair digitally removed,so their heads appear shaved.In all three tests,the subjects reported finding the men with shaved heads as more dominant (占優(yōu)勢(shì)的) than their hairy counterparts (對(duì)應(yīng)的人).
The study found that men with thinning hair were viewed as the least attractive and powerful.For those men,the solution could be as cheap and simple as a shave.
New York image consultant Julie Rath advised her clients to get closely cropped when they start thinning up top."There's something really strong,powerful and confident about laying it all bare (光禿的),she said,describing the thinning look as kind of raunchy(不修邊幅的).
Not everyone needs a bare head.Rick Devine,55,the CEO of Devine Capital Parners,advised executive candidates attracted by their clippers to keep their hair closely cropped,rather than completely shaved."It is way too much image risk,"he said."The best thing you can do in a business meeting is to make your look not an issue."

32.We can learn from Paragraph 1that men with shaved heads are more likely toB.
A.be liked by their leaders.           B.become business leaders
C.be laughed at by their leaders      D.feel stressed from their work
33.Albert Mannes decided to do the researchC.
A.long before he shaved his own thinning hair
B.when he was looked down upon because of his thinning hair
C.when people treated him more respectfully after he shaved his thinning hair.
D.when he noticed that others began to shave their thinning hair
34.The underlined part in Paragraph 4probably means that the solution is toB.
A.buy a pair of cheap scissors.
B.have a cheap shave
C.keep their thinning hair           
D.shave their own thinning hair
35.What's the author's attitude toward men's bare heads?A
A.Objectjive     
B.Negative.
C.Positive.
D.Doubtful.
