"What if reasoning can help to explain this interesting effect．In order to understand our world and our choices, we often imagine how things could have been different．A wife may ask, " Would I be happier today if I had married someone else?" Likewise, a student may think, "If 1 had chosen another major, maybe I would have a better shot at getting into graduate school．" In short, " what if thinking allows us to mentally create alternative to our reality．In the Olympics, the "what ifs" of the winners are different．Clearly, the "what ifs" for the gold medalist involve not being No．1—this thought makes this athlete realize how fortunate he or she is．For the bronze medalist, the "what ifs" involve not being on the medal list at all, producing positive feelings．However, for the silver medalist, the "what ifs" can easily make the athlete ponder how things could have been different if he or she has won the gold medal （e．g．what if I practiced harder, and what if I had not made the small error in my routine）．Thus, the "what ifs" that come to mind of the 1st and 3rd place finishers are positive, but the 2nd place finishers have a number of dissatisfying alternatives to reality that can make them feel less happy．56．This passage is mainly about _____．A．who the happiest among the Olympics medal winners isB．why the prize-awarding moments are unforgettableC．what to pay attention to when watching the Olympic GamesD．why bronze medal winners are happier than silver medalists57．According to the passage, "what if reasoning means ____．A．imagining what things could have been or would be in another situation B．making the best choice in a very difficult situationC．doing the same thing using several different waysD．looking forward to being in a better situation58．The underlined word "ponder" in paragraph 3 can be replaced by "__"．A．think about B．look intoC．work on D．worry about59．Which of the following is the silver medalist's thought according to the passage?A．I feel so fortune that I won the silver prize．B．I feel happy for the first and third place winners．C．It could be worse if I were not on the medal list at all．D．The result could have been better if I had made greater efforts．60．In which part of a newspaper would you most probably read the passage?A．Education B．Family C．Life D．PsychologyBToday, children start to use computers, smart phones and tablets from a very young age． Many parents and child experts believe that this is very wrong． They claim that early exposure to technology can make individuals lazy and distracted． That may be true, but there it is practically impossible to change the world we live in now． What we can do is embrace smart mobile technologies the best way we can．That is Microsoft’s Windows 8 App Sto re． One of its applications is entirely educational, Windows 8． There, students of all ages can find apps that can greatly help them in their studies． We have prepared the 4 best of them．Wikipedia—Wikipedia is the first place where students search for information． The articles on the popular website are updated regularly and they include many details, figures and resources． With this app, you can access Wikipedia faster than ever．SAS Flash Cards—One of the most effective ways to learn your school or university material is by using the so-called “flash cards”． This app, however, allows users to create an entire set of cards in a matter of minutes． Also, the cards can be divided into different subject categories, which makes studying easier and more fun than ever before．Kindle Reader—If you don't have a Kindle e-Book reader, you can use your Windows 8 device． Just install this app and the Kindle word will land in your smart phone, tablet or laptop． With the Kin-die Reader W8 app, you can also organize and store all of your favorite books．My Study Life—This application is the mobile version of the website My Study Life． The app can be very useful for students in terms of school and university organization． There you can store all the information you want like homework, assignments and papers． In addition, you can create your own school calendar that will remind you of your upcoming exams, for instance．There is one main reason why these Windows 8 apps are appropriate for students． Apart from useful, they are completely free! All you need to do is go to Microsoft’s Windows 8 App Store, download the applications you want and install them onto your device．61． The underlined part means we should __________．A． update the technologies as often as we canB． accept the smart mobile applications willinglyC． purchase a smart mobile with much moneyD． develop some new smart mobile functions62． If you want to know of Rafael Nadal you can use __________．A． Wikipedia B． SAS Flash CardsC． Kindle Reader D． My Study Life63．The function of “flash cards” is __________．A． to make your smart phone closely attachedB． to update your information every dayC． to help you get your favorite reading materialsD． to help students learn their subjects easily64． We can learn from the passage that __________．A． students can buy the apps at a certain discountB． the applications above are all for nothingC． you should pay much to download the appsD．It’s easy for parents to keep a watch on their children65． Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A． Top Windows 8 Apps for StudentsB． Windows 8 to Be Updated for StudentsC． Games Apps in Windows 8 StoreD． Microsoft Company and Its AppsDHow often do you sit still and do absolutely nothing．The usual answer these days is “never”．Or “hardly ever”．As the pace of life continues to increase，we are fast losing the art of relaxation．Once you are in the habit of rushing through life，being on the go from morning till night，it is hard to slow down．But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body．Stress is fl natural part of everyday life．There is no way to avoid it, since it takes many and varied forms-driving in traffic，problems with personal relationships are all different forms of stress．Stress，in fact，is not the “baddy”it is often reputed to be．A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life．It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health．The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual．Some people are not afraid of stress，and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities．Others lose heart at the first sight of unusual difficulties．When exposed to stress，in whatever form，we react both chemically and physically．In fact we make a choice between “fight” or “fright” and in more primitive days the choice made the difference between life and death．The crisis we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme，but however little the stress，it involves the same response．All the energy is shifted to cope with the stress．It is when such a reaction lasts long，through continued exposure to stress，that health becomes endangered．Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart disease have established links with stress．Stress in some people produces stomach disorders，while others experiencetension headaches．Since we cannot remove stress from our 1ires，We need to find ways to cope with it．66．People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because .A．they are working harder than they used toB．they are often too busy to find the timeC．they are not clear of how to relax by themselvesD．they are suffering from the effects of stress67．What is implied but not stated in the passage?A．The art of relaxation can greatly help people bear stress．B．People in primitive days know certain ways to deal with stress．C．If one gets into the habit of relaxing every day he can overcome stress easily．D．Stress can lead to serious health problem if one is exposed to it for too long．68．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 suggests that ．A．stress is not always a bad thing for peopleB．stress has a bad reputation of causing ill healthC．stress is not so terrible as people often believe it to beD．stress is always harmful to people all the time69．According to this passage，which of the following statements is true?A．Relaxation in life only benefits us mentally．B．Different people can stand different amounts of stress.C．All the stress can lead to poor performance．D．Large amounts of stress is important to people's lire．70．What is the writer's attitude to stress according to the passage?A．Stress as well as relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body．B．Stress should not be rid completely from the life．C．Stress produces both positive and negative effects on people．D．People usually work better under stress if they are healthy．PART FOUR WRITING (45’)SECTION A (10’)Directions: Read the following passage.

Colors behave in three basic ways: active, passive and neutral (中和的).Active colors are warm colors, including yellow, orange and red. These colors bring confidence. Warm colors can also bring cheerful attitudes. Yellows and golden colors work well in offices, kitchens and study areas. Reds heat up a room. Passive colors or cool colors make people calm, quiet and satisfied. Bedrooms, private areas and bathrooms are great places for blues and greens. Beige, gray and white are thought of as neutral colors. They help to put the focus on other colors or serve to tonedown (使柔和) colors that might otherwise be overpowering on their own.You can easily change the look or feel of a room by making good use of different colors. Mixing and matching colors is an excellent way to balance color and emotion, and provide a welcoming feel for guests.To create a feeling of warmth and comfort in a room, use bright, warm colors like yellow, orange and red. These colors are good choices for rooms that appear cool due to limited sunlight. Yellow adds cheerfulness to dull rooms. You can add yellows to rooms which are not closely related to happy thoughts, such as kitchens and laundry room. In rooms where there’s plenty of sunshine, cool colors can provide a calming environment. Sage greens and sky blues are perfect for bedrooms, playrooms and activity areas. Neutral colors, such as pale gray, white and beige, send a peaceful message to your brain. It’s not a coincidence that most doctor’s offices, coffee shops and mental health centers are decorated in neutrals.To make your wall color choices better, pick out furniture that will provide a visual contrast. Cool colors make a room seem larger than it is and warm colors make rooms feel smaller.Title: The Connection Between 71.____________Commonly believed effects of colors ●causing emotional reactions ●72.__________________73._________________of colors and their effects 74._______________●bringing confidence and 75.________________ passive colors●making people calm, 76.________________ neutral colors●helping to put the focus on other colors or tonedown overpowering colors.77._________________to balance color and emotion ●using bright, warm colors to make a dim or dullroom warm and 78.____________________●using cool colors to create a calmingenvironment in a bright room●79.______________to send a peaceful messageTip on picking out furniture Picking out furniture that will give a visualcontrast to 80.______________ wall color choices. Section B (10 marks)Directions：Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.One Sunday morning when I was in my early twenties I was reading a magazine about I was in my early twenties I was reading a magazine about a woman whose worst nightmare had come true: the small plane she was traveling in, along with her father and four other passengers, crashed in tropical waters. Separated from her father and others, she did something she’d never done before –she prayed. She prayed to God to helpher have the strength to swim in water for ten minutes, just ten minutes she made herself unharmed through the night by one prayer at a time until she returned safelyto shore, where she was reunited safely to shore, where she was reunited with her father.For the life of me, I could not put the magazine down. Every single little prayer she prayed was answered, instantly. She was an ordinary woman just like me, so if she could pray and get help immediately, why couldn’t I?By the time I finished reading the article, the possibility of answered prayerin my life seemed within reach. With just the belief in the possibility, the door opened. My life changed in that instant, but I didn’t know it yet: I received my first answer to a prayer I did not even know I had.Years later I would could come to understand that every prayer—long or short, silent or aloud, angry or grateful, tearful or fearful—is answered through you when you are open to receive. Prayer became a lifeline for me, and prayer by prayer I followed in the footsteps of my heroine, one bite-size prayer at a time, until I came across the hidden truth about prayer: when we are open to receive, every prayeris answered.81.

At that time, when the car I drove needed repairing, I was afraid to take it to the 36 . Because honestly, the mechanic could have 37 me an electric can opener and said, “This is part of your car and it’s 38 -----pay me to fix it.” Then I wouldn’t have known any better.At the end of my junior year of high school, I heard about a summer program 39 to interest girls in engineering. The six-week program was free, and students were 40 college credits and a dorm room at the University of Maryland. I applied to the program, not because I wanted to be an engineer, but because I was looking forward to 41 and wanted to stay away from my parents for six weeks.I was accepted to the program and I earned six engineering credits. The next year I entered the university as an engineering student. Five years later I had a degree and three good job offers.I can’t help shaking 42 I hear about studies that show women are 43 when it comes to math. They imply that I am a little stupid.

But I didn’t know what that was. Most people think that when you are 45 something, it comes easily to you. But this is what I discovered: just because a subject is 46 to learn, it does not mean you are not good at it. You just have to grit your teeth and work hard to get good at it.

In which part of a newspaper would the information of the books be most likely to appear?A. ScienceB. OpinionC. LifestyleD. AdvertisementBAre morning people born or made? In my case it was definitely made. In my early 20s, I hardly went to bed before midnight, and I would always get up late the next morning.But after a while I couldn’t ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. On those rare occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity (效率) was always higher. So I set out to become a habitual early riser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sleep research showed that my strategy was wrong. The most common wrong strategy is this: sup posing you’re going to get up earlier, you’d better go to bed earlier. It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail. There are two main schools (流派) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day. The second school says you should go to bed when you’re tired and get up when you naturally wake up. However, I have found both are wrong if you care about productivity. If you sleep at fixed hours, you’ll sometimes go to bed when you aren’t sleepy enough. You’re wasting time lying in bed awake.My solution is to combine both methods. I go to bed when I’m sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time. So I always get up at the same time (in my case 5 a.m.), but I go to bed at different times every night.However, going to bed only when I’m sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning are my ways. If you want to become an early riser, you can try your own.61. According to the passage, the underlined phrase refers to ________.A. people who stay up until the next morningB. people who get up early in the morningC. people who feel sleepy in the morningD. people whose productivity is the lowest in the morning62. Why did the author want to become a habitual early riser?A. Because he / she found that the productivity was higher.B. Because he / she wanted to do morning exercise.C. Because he / she wanted to test which school is better.D. Because he / she wanted to have more sleep time.63. The author experienced all the following EXCEPT ________.A. going to bed after midnightB. asking scholars for advice on sleeping habitsC. getting up early occasionallyD. pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping64. What’s the author’s sleep pattern?A. Going to bed early and getting up early.B. Going to bed late and getting up late.C. Going to bed when sleepy and getting up at a fixed early time.D. Going to bed early and getting up late.65. The passage is mainly about ________.A. main schools of thought on sleep patternsB. how to have a good sleepC. wrong strategies for getting up earlyD. how to become an early riserCHere’s one number to keep in mind during your next cell phone conversation: 50. A new experiment shows that spending 50 minutes with an active phone pressed up to the ear increases activity in the brain. This brain activity probably doesn't make you smarter. When cell phones are on, they emit (发出) energy in the form of radiation that could be harmful, especially after years of cell phone usage. Scientists don't know yet whether cell phones are bad for the brain. Studies like this one are attempting to find it out.The 47 participants in the experiment may have looked a little strange. Each one had two Samsung cell phones attached to his or her head — one on each ear. The phone on the left ear was off. The phone on the right ear played a message for 50 minutes, but the participants couldn't hear it because the sound was off.With this set-up, the scientists could be sure they were studying brain activity from the phone itself, and not brain activity due to listening and talking during a conversation. After 50 minutes with two phones strapped to their heads, the participants were given PET scans.The PET scan showed that the left side (the side with the phone turned off) of each participant's brain hadn't changed during the experiment. The right side of the brain, however, had used more glucose, which is a type of sugar that provides fuel to brain cells. These right-side brain cells were using almost as much glucose as the brain uses when a person is talking. This suggests that the brain cells there were active ― even without the person hearing anything. That activity, the scientists say, was probably caused by radiation from the phone.Henry Lai, who works at the University of Washington in Seattle, is uncomfortable with the data related to cell phones. Holding a cell phone to your ear during a conversation is “not really safe,” Lai told Science News. Lai is a bioengineerat the University of Washington in Seattle. He wrote an article about the new study for a journal, but he did not work on the study. Bioengineers bring together ideas from engineering and biology.For those who don't want to wait to find out for sure whether cell phones are bad for the brain, there are ways to talk more safely. You can have short and sweet conversations, use a speakerphone or keep the phone away from your head.66. Which of the following statement is true?A. Scientists are sure that cell phones are bad for the brain.B. In the experiment, the left side of the brain used more glucose.C. Radiation from the phone probably causes the change in the brain.D. Henri Lai wrote a lot of articles about this new study.67. Why weren’t the participants allowed to hav e a conversation on the phone during the experiment?A. Because the scientists want to be sure of the accuracy of the experiment.B. Because they really looked strange and no one wanted to talk to others.C. Because they were given PET scans and they lost the ability to talk.D. Because that would be too noisy and bad for the experiment.68. What is glucose?A. A type of sugar that provides vitamin to brain cells.B. Something that the right side of the brain used.C. A type of sugar that gives energy to brain cells.D. Something that makes a human excited.69. According to the last two paragraphs, which is the safest way to use a cell phone?A. Holding the cell phone close to your head.B. Using a cell phone more than three hours a day.C. Taking the most powerful cell phone.D. Keeping the cell phone at a distance.70. Where is this article probably taken from?A. Literature magazine.B. Science News.C. Story books.D. Art Journal.PART FOUR: WRITING（45 points）SECTION A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram / Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information for the passage.Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.Lead poisoning (铅中毒) occurs when lead is present in high levels in the blood of a person. It is one of the most common medical problems found in children. And it’s important to recognize the presence of lead in children’s bodies because lead is very harmful.Children have the tendency to go around and put things in their mouths like paintpeelings (油漆层剥皮). This is one of the main causes of lead poisoning. It has also been found that children born in poor families have higher chances of getting exposed to lead.Some of the common symptoms of lead poisoning in children are headaches, stomach pains, hair loss, muscle weakness and weight loss, etc.Lead poisoning can have severe effects and can lead to heart diseases, kidney diseases and neurological (神经系统的) problems. It can also cause mental dullness and a low IQ level. There have been cases where lead poisoning proved to be terminal for children.It’s difficult to easily recognize whether a child is affected by lead poisoning, as the symptoms of this disease can occur due to some other medical problems. Therefore, children under the age of six should regularly be checked to know the level of lead in their blood through blood tests. It’s possible to completely cure a child with lead poisoning through treatment. Usually the oral medicine chelator (螯合剂) is given to the children. Sometimes, children are given an injection (注射) for reducing the lead level. Children who have very high level of lead in their blood would need treatment for a long period of time and would also be put on a special diet.Parents have to take certain precautions to lower the chance of lead poisoning in children. Cleaning the house regularly and removing shoes at the door after coming in from outside will prevent the lead particles from entering the house. Children should be put on a healthy diet, containing high proportions (比例) of calcium and iron, such as eggs, milk, fruits, potatoes, etc, which helps to keep the lead levels in control in the children’s bodies.In short, it’s a must to be cautious and careful and protect your children from the horrible consequences of lead poisoning.Lead Poisoning in ChildrenⅠ. 71.* Children’s going around and 72. in their mouths.* High chances of blood lead.Ⅱ.

Answer the following questions according to the information given in the passage.Abby and Ally are my dear daughters. Last week, we had an outing and we were really tired later that day. After enjoying good food, we headed back. Abby pushed the button as we awaited the elevator and suddenly Ally let out a sigh of disappointment.“Oh wait, we can’t use the elevator,” Ally said, pointing to a sign near the elevator. Too tired to challenge her, both Abby and I followed her without looking around the corner to another set of elevators. “Oh, my god,” Ally said, visibly upset. “we can’t use the elevators either！They’re also reserved for the firefighters.”Abby looked at me. I looked at Abby. We both looked at the sign and then we stared at Ally to see if she was serious. She was. .“Ally, the sign does n’t say the elevators are reserved for firefighters,”Abby explained. “It says not to use the elevators in case of fire！With that, Ally took a longer look at the sign and actually read it instead of skimming it this time. What’s the lesson here? You have to spend time reading signs, maps or recipes instead of just assuming you know what they say, or you might go through life climbing many flights of stairs when you could be taking the elevator.It also got me thinking about how often we do this with reading. I wonder how many people just assume they know what a book says instead of actually spending time reading it, thus making wrong assumptions. How often have I neglected a book simply because I think I “know” what it says when I really just need to slow down, open the book, and focus on the reading?81.

The first moveable Chinese Characters were carved into clay and baked into hard blocks that were then arranged onto an iron frame that was pressed against an iron plate.The earliest mention of Bi Sheng’s printing press is in the bookDream Pool Essays, written in 1086 by Shen Kuo, who noted that his nephews came into possession of Bi Sheng’s typefaces (字体) after his death. Shen Kuo explained that Bi Sheng did not use wood because the texture is inconsistent (不一致的) and absorbs wetness too easily.By the time of the Southern Song Dynasty, which ruled from 1127 to 1279 AD, books had become popular in society and helped create a scholarly class of citizens who had the capabilities to become civil servants. Large printed book collections also became a status symbol for the wealthy class.1. When was Bi Sheng’s printing press first introduced in history?A. After Bi Sheng died and his nephews owned his typefaces.B. When books became popular in the Southern Song Dynasty.C. After the block printing was replaced by the moveable type printing.D. WhenThe Diamond Sutrawas printed into a book.2. What can we infer from the passage?A. Shen Kuo made great contributions to printing.B. The moveable type printing was invented earlier than block printing.C. Printed books were hard to get in the Song Dynasty.D. By the Southern Song Dynasty, books had helped people get to higher social positions.3. Why does the author write this passage?A. To show that Buddhism was popular in the Tang Dynasty.B. To introduce the early history of printing.C. To memorize Bi Sheng, developing the moveable type printing.D. To indicate the advantages of moveable type printing.BLarry was on another of his underwater expeditions(探险)but this time, it was different. He decided to take his daughter along with him. She was only ten years old. This would be her first trip with her father on what he had always been famous for.Larry first began diving when he was his daughter’s age. Similarly, his father had taken him along on one of his expeditions. Since then, he had never looked back. Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore. He had hated them. They were either too big or too small. Then, there was the instructor. He gave him a short lesson before allowing him into the water with his father. He had made an exception. Larry would never have been able to go down without at least five hours of theory and another similar number of hours on practical lessons with a guide. Children of his age were not even allowed to dive.After the first expedition, Larry’s later diving adventures only got better and better. There was never a dull moment. In his black and blue suit and with an oxygen tank fastened on his back, Larry dived from boats into the middle of the ocean. Dangerous areas did not prevent him from continuing his search. Sometimes, he was limited to a cage underwater but that did not bother him. At least, he was still able to take photographs of the underwater creatures.Larry’s first expedition without his father was in the Cayman Islands. There were numerous diving spots in the area and Larry was determined to visit all of them .Fortunately for him, a man offered to take him around the different spots for rry didn’t even know what the time was, how many spots he dived into or how many photographs he had taken.The diving spots afforded such a wide range of fish and sea creatures that Larry saw more than thirty varieties of creatures.Larry looked at his daughter. She looked as excited as he had been when he was her age. He hoped she would be able to continue the family tradition. Already, she looked like she was much braver than had been then. This was the key to a successful underwater expedition.4. In what way was this expedition different for Larry?A. His daughter had grown up.B. He had become a famous diver.C. His father would dive with him.D. His daughter would dive with him.5. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A. Larry had some special right.B. Larry liked the rented diving suits.C. Divers had to buy diving equipment.D. Ten-year-old children were permitted to dive.6. What can be learned from the underlined sentence?A. Larry didn’t wear a watch.B. Larry was not good at math.C. Larry had a poor memory.D. Larry enjoyed the adventure.7. What did Larry expect his daughter to do?A. Become a successful diver.B. Make a good diving guide.C. Take a lot of photo underwater.D. Have longer hours of training.CANew Zealandcouncil has announced a month-long road closure in order to allow a sea lion and her pup to reach the ocean safely.John Wilson Ocean Drive in Dunedin will be closed after the New Zealand sea lions made their home at a nearby golf course and started "regularly crossing the road to get to the beach," according to a Facebook post from Dunedin City Council."You can still visit the area on foot or by bicycle, but please give the sea lions lots of space," continued the post.Locals applauded the decision, and one even called for the closure to be made permanent."No dogs should be on the beach, either," wrote Gaylene Smith. "We need to protect our beautiful sea life."Dogs are known to attack sea lions, and Chisholm Links Golf Course, where the sea lions have made their home, also posted advice to dog walkers in a Facebook update."We're lucky to have sea lions on our coastline and we need to share the space with them,as this is what makes our coastline so unique!" wrote the course on Facebook.The council went on to explain thatNew Zealandsea lions are endangered, and are one of the world's rarest species of sea lion.There are an estimated 12,000New Zealandsea lions left, according to the Department of Conservation.Under local law, anyone who kills a sea lion could face up to two years in prison or a fine of up to NZ$250,000(US$178,000).8. What decision has the Dunedin City Council made?A. Closing an ocean drive for a month.B. Forbidding entry into a golf course.C. Forbidding walking dogs outside.D. Closing the nearby beach temporarily.9. How did the City Council announce the decision?A. By informing on TV.B. By sending out notices.C. By posting on Facebook.D. By advertising in a newspaper.10. What is the attitude of the local people toward the closure?A. Doubtful.B. Supportive.C. Uncaring.D. Critical.11. What can we learn aboutNew Zealandsea lions from the text?A. They are afraid of humans.B. They are a common species.C. They are being killed by dogs.D. They are under legal protection.DDid you know that the average child has heard the word "no" over 20,000 times before they turn the age of three? Ironically, it is also around this time that children begin to develop enough personal character to refuse to obey. The "terrible twos" are categorized by a lack of understanding. Somewhere between three and four, children begin to acquire the skills to reason. It is during this time they watch how other children and adults reason. If we're not careful, the children will watch us model a world of "NOs".By the time a person turns eighteen, how many times have they been told no? I haven't found any studies that even attempted to track this statistic, but I'm sure if the number is 20,000 by three, then at eighteen that number has multiplied. You can do the math.Anyway, I think I know why we say no. We say no to protect. We say no to direct. We say no to stop potential confusion. However, do we sometimes say no just for the sake of saying no? Do we say no because we have internalized(内在化)all of the "NOs" we've heard over the years and we feel it is finally our time to say no to someone else?The internalized no can damage the growth process of dreams in infancy as quickly as it can weaken a three-year-old. And we wonder why we run intopeople with big, un-accomplished dreams who have a bit of a chip on their shoulder. They have to take on the 20,000 NOs. However, the thing that keeps them going is the possibility of the power of ONE YES! Just as it only takes one book to make a writer a Pulitzer Prize Winner, it onlytakes one word to change the course of your day. That word is YES!12. What do we know about two- year- olds?A. They understand well.B. They often say no to others.C. They think logically.D. They don't do all they're told.13. What effect does saying no have on children?A. They lose all their dreams.B. They aren't easy to succeed.C. They don't make mistakes.D. They never say yes to others.14. Which word best describes the author's attitude to a world of "NOs"?A. Tolerant.B. Disapproving.C. Favorable.D. Carefree.15. What is the text?A. A how-to guide.B. A survey report.C. An opinion essay.D. A short story.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
