Many adults see teens as energetic. Many of us see ourselves as proud.
This thinking 31 many adults and us, too, to have the idea that if we can’t handle school or 32 life well, we’re just not trying.
But in my opinion that may not be 33 .
Earlier this school year, I was leaving my class one Friday, 34 suddenly it felt like I had pulled a muscle in my back. I knew I was ill.
After a few days I stopped eating. This meant I lost 35 ; the clothes that I bought two weeks earlier began 36 loose. This time my parents got scared. 37 , I started sleeping less. My eyelids（眼皮）were constantly 38 .
I refused to 39 that I was ill. I kept my job working 25 hours a week in a shop; I didn’t 40 any classes. When I was hurting, I didn’t mind and kept on going. 41 it kills you, it makes you stronger, right?
But now I find myself thinking. Is it 42 it? I’m taking the classes and writing for the newspaper because it looks good 43 college applications. And I’m working 25 hours a week so that, once I get into my dream school, I can 44 it.
Here I am, already sick from the 45 of work I’m doing in and out of school. So, what good is a(n) 46 application if I’m badly ill? What is the 47 of doing this work if I can’t enjoy the results?
In fact, by writing my 48 I’m telling all the people who 49 much about the future and worry about it now. This is my warning: Don’t climb the 50 dive if you don’t like the deep end.

第三部分 阅读理解（共20小题，每题1.5分，满分30分）
A
Over time, the custom of kissing developed as a way for adults to express their love and affection for one another. The roots of this form of affection can be traced back to primitive times, when mothers fondled their children, much as mothers do today.
Much later, in the sixth century, society apparently accepted the custom of kissing between adults as an expression of their affection. Not surprisingly, France first accepted kissing in courtship (求爱). There, figure dancing was popular, and each dance was sealed with a kiss.
The custom of kissing swept from France through Europe to Russia, where Russian nobility loved to imitate the French. Eventually, the kiss was incorporated into marriage ceremonies, and today lip-locks couples into sweet matrimony.
The custom of kissing today, as well as in ancient times, serves to pay homage to another. Early Romans kissed each other on the mouth or on the eyes to greet one another in a manner they thought to be dignified. One Roman emperor even ranked a person's importance by the body part he was allowed to kiss. He allowed important nobles to kiss his lips, less important ones to kiss his hands, and the least important ones to kiss his feet.
In Russia, the highest sign of recognition from the Crown meant a kiss from the Tsar himself. Today, natives of many African tribes pay homage to their Chief by kissing the ground over which he has walked.
51. What’s mainly talked about in the passage?
A. The way to express love and respect.
B. The expression of affection.
C. The custom of kissing.
D. The function of kissing.
52. Which of the following can best explain the underlined word “homage” in the 4th paragraph？
A. recognition

A. kissing is a widely accepted way to show love and affection
B. kissing used to be a proper way to show love on the wedding ceremony
C. kissing is a widely accepted way of greeting in the world
D. kissing from the Tsar is only sign of being accepted from the Crown
54. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. It was France that made the custom of kissing go to the whole world.
B. Early Africans kissed each other on the mouth or on the eyes to greet one another.
C. One Roman emperor allowed important nobles to kiss his nose.
D. Russian nobility followed the custom of kissing from the French.
55. We can infer from the passage that __________.
A. mothers created the custom of kissing

Do you know about a series of books that say they are “for dummies”? These American self-help books have been translated into more than thirty-nine languages including Chinese, Arabic, Russian, French, German, Greek and Spanish.
“Dummy” is a word for a stupid person. The dummies books are not really for stupid people. They are designed to show people how to do something they may never have tried before, like painting a house or learning a language. The books all say in a funny way that they are for dummies, such as World History for Dummies, Rabbits for Dummies, Chinese Cooking for Dummies, and Wedding Planning for Dummies. The first such book, DOS for Dummies, was published in 1991. It helped people learn how to use the DOS operating system for computers. Since then, more than one hundred fifty million dummies books have been sold.
The https://www.doczj.com/doc/177327190.html, website explains the idea behind the books. It says that they show that people can be taught to do anything. First they can make fun of ideas that are difficult to understand. Then they show how the information can be interesting and easy. The publishers say that the books do not provide more information than necessary. They give readers just enough information to do what they want. They say that the dummies books give the best and easiest way to do something. And the books use simple and easy language.
There are more than one thousand different dummies books. A report in New York Times says that the top-selling dummies books are those that explain technology and personal finance.
The publishers say that the best-selling dummies books are those providing information many people need---like information about diseases, education and cooking. People interested in opera, car repair and wine can also find dummies books to help them. And there are even more dummies books to come. The publishers say that they publish about two hundred new dummies books every year.

A brush with death can actually improve a person’s outlook on life. That, at least, was one of the major findings of a study of some 200 people who come close to dying. Some had come through heart attack; some had fallen, come close to drowning; or survived a terrible car wreck, yet despite the variety of circumstances, they reported strikingly similar reactions to their experiences.
Perhaps most surprisingly, many said they were less frightened of death now than they were before. Like most people, before their near-death incidents many had thought death would be painful, the ultimate horror—but they didn’t find it was.
Surviving a nearly fatal experience also gave many people a sense of invulnerability（不会受伤害）that made them feel special and even religious. Several believed they had been saved because they were to fulfill some special mission in the remainder of their lives.
Perhaps not so surprisingly, these survivors also reported an increased zest for life and a determination to enjoy life more.
A few of the survivors did report negative reactions to their experience.
A dozen said they felt more vulnerable, and some even felt a sense of helplessness and a loss of control over their lives. Some had become phobic about activities associated with the accident; for example, several said they could no longer swim for fear of drowning.
Yet most of those interviewee said they came away with a strong sense
of renewal or rebirth. In studying their reactions researchers have concluded that these people have come to understand the relationship of life and death better and more intimately than most of us, they have come to understand how life is actually defined by death. Life is given meaning by the fact that it will end someday.
61. From the passage, we can infer that the effects of near-death experiences
on the survivors’ life __________.
A. differ due to the variety of circumstances
B. vary greatly from person to person
C. are mostly positive in terms of their outlook on life
D. are neither positive nor negative
62. The word “phobic” (in the fifth paragraph) most probably means ________ .
A. very careful
B. very casual
C. very curious
D. very fearful
63. The title below that best expresses the ideas of this passage is ________
A. How to Improve a Person’s Outlook on Life.
B. The Effects of Near-Death Experience.
C. Is Death Really Horrible?
D. Near-Death Accidents and their Survivors.
64. The positive effect of near-death experience was that ______________.
A. some people loved life better because they realized its new meaning
B. some people felt a sense of helplessness
C. some people felt a loss of control over their lives
D. some people wanted to seek extreme happiness because they knew life was too limited
65. Which effect of the near-death experience was the one that people had seldom expected?
A. Some people felt more vulnerable.
B. Some people did not worry too much about death any more.
C. Some people paid more attention to the value of life.
D. Some people tended to be too pessimistic about death.
D
You may be spending far too many of your present moments in efforts to win the approval of others, or in being concerned with some disapproval that you have encountered. We all enjoy applause, compliments and praise, and approval in itself is not unhealthy. Approval-seeking is an misleading zone only when it becomes a need rather than a want.
If you want the approval, you are simply happy to have the recognition of the other people. But if you need it, you are going to collapse if you don’t get it. That’s when the self-destructive forces move in. Similarly, when approval-seeking becomes a need, you give up a chunk（相当大的数量）of yourself
to the “outside person” whose advocacy（拥护）you must have. If they disapprove, then you are immobilized（使丧失机动性）(even in a small way). In such a case, you have chosen to wear your self-worth on your sleeve for someone to rub or not to rub as they see fit. You feel good inside only if they decide to administer some praise to you.
The need for approval of another person is bad enough, but the real trouble comes with the need for the approval of everyone for every act. If you carry around such a need, then you are bound for a great deal of misery and frustration in your life. Moreover, you will be incorporating a wish-washy（软弱无力的）non-person self-image that will result in the kind of self-rejection.
The need for approval must go! No question makes there. It must be eradicated from your life if you are to gain personal fulfillment. Such need is
a psychological dead end, with absolutely no benefits to you.
66. Approval-seeking is healthy when .
A. you need the approval
B. you only want the approval
C. you need the approval of everyone for every act
D. you don’t care
about the approval
67. The self-destructive forces move in when .
A. you need the approval and you get it
B. you feel good inside
C. you need the approval but you don’t get it
D. you are immobilized
68. The underlined sentence in the 2nd paragraph means you’ve decided
to_______________.
A. give up your self-worth in order to get the approval
B. change your self-worth in order to get the approval
C. show your self-worth to others and allow them to make a judgment
D. put your self-worth in other’s hand and allow them to keep it or hurt it as they
like
69. The need for the approval of everyone for every act will eventually result
in .
A. self-rejection
B. real troubles
C. unhappiness
D. enthusiasm
70. What can we infer from the passage?
A. People can benefit from the need of the approval.
B. Both the want and need for approval are unhealthy.
C. The need for the approval is a destructive feeling and people must get rid
of it.
D. Since everyone enjoys praise and compliment, it’s natural for us to need
approval.
