At my heaviest I weighed 370 pounds. I had a very poor relationship with food: I used it to 15 bad feelings, to make myself feel better, and to celebrate. Worried about my health, I tried many different kinds of diets but nothing worked. I came to believe that I could do nothing about my weight.

My father was born in a small town in the US. He wanted to get out and begin a new adventure (冒险).

He began that adventure by traveling to different cities in the US before going on to other countries. He took his wife and three daughters with him and went wherever the road took him.

It's easy to feel lonely when you're on the road. As my mother said repeatedly, “We made lots of new friends on our trip—most of them were workers who fix cars, since we often spent hours in repair shops during the journey.”

Getting along sometimes seemed impossible. There were always a lot of arguments, especially among

us back-seat passengers about who had to sit in the middle.

But even if it was hard, we did learn a lot about forgiveness.

When in the Philippines, we drove to Quezon City one day. It should have been a one-hour drive but was nearly three, thanks to bad roads and worse traffic.“Did you put our suitcases in the car?” my father asked my mother as we arrived. “No,” she said. “I thought you did.” That was how a seven-hour car trip turned into a 16-hour car trip, which was almost spent in silence.

In situations like that, we had to learn to let go of our anger. We were stuck（困在）in a rolling box with the same people for the rest of the journey. Even if I sometimes felt like opening the car door and pushing one of my sisters out, I kept my feelings to myself.

This is why road tips were like moving universities to us. We earned our PhDs (傅士学) in how to get along with other people just by traveling in that old car.

28. Who did the writer's family make many friends with on their trip?

A. Other travelers.

B. Shop owners.

C. Car repair workers.

D.Tour guides.

29. What do we know about their trip in the Philippines!

A. They took a train to Quezon City.

B. The writer's mother lost their suitcases.

C. One of the writer's sisters was pushed out of the car.

D. They spent more time driving than they planned.

30.What word would the writer use to describe these trips?

A.Adventurous.

The evening arrived; the boys took their places. The master, in his cook's uniform, stood at the table; his poor helpers were behind him; the gruel (稀粥) was served out; and after they spoke to God to give thanks, there was little time left to eat. The gruel disappeared in no time; the boys whispered to each other, and encouraged Oliver to ask for more. Oliver was very hungry and decided to take a risk. He rose from the table, and went to the master, plate and spoon in hand, said:

“Please, sir. I want some more."

_________①_________

The master was a fat, healthy man, but his face became very pale. He looked at the small boy in great surprise for some seconds, and nearly fell but for the support to the table. The helpers were frozen with wonder; the boys with fear.

“What!" said the master at last, in a weak voice.

“Please, sir," replied Oliver,“I want some more."

The master hit Oliver's head with the ladle (长勺) and screamed for Mr. Bumble.

②

Some people were sitting in talking about something, when Mr. Bumble rushed into the room in great excitement, and spoke directly to the gentleman in the high chair, said:

“Mr. Limbkins, I beg your pardon, sir! Oliver Twist has asked for more!"

③

“For more!" said Mr. Limbkins.“Calm yourself, Bumble, and answer me clearly. Do I understand that he asked for more, after he had eaten the supper which was offered?”

“He did, sir," replied Bumble.

"That boy will be hanged," said the gentleman in white. "I know that boy will be hanged."

Nobody was against the gentleman's idea. A heated discussion took place. Oliver was locked in a cold dark room and no boys were allowed to talk to him. The next morning a notice was put up on the outside of the gate,offering a reward of five pounds to anybody who would employ (雇佣) Oliver Twist. In other words, five pounds and Oliver Twist were offered to any man or woman who wanted an apprentice (学徒) to any trade or business.

④

“I never was more sure of anything in my life," said the gentleman in white, as he knocked at the gate and read the notice the next morning. I never was more sure of anything in my life—that boy will be hanged.”

Adapted from Oliver Twist by Dickens

31.Why were the characters in the text angry about Oliver asking for more gruel?

A .Oliver put the master to the trouble of cooking more.

B.Oliver challenged the traditional rules.

C. Oliver impressed Limbkins with his not keeping a diet.

D. Oliver had bad relationships with the gentleman in white.

32. The sentences “There was a general start (突然一惊). Everyone’s face was full of honor." can be put in_______

A.①

B.①

C.①

D.①

33.What would probably happen to Oliver according to the last two paragraphs?

A.He would have to leave to avoid being hanged.

B.He would become an apprentice working for Bumble.

C.He would be sold to anyone who willing to offer five pounds.

D.He would become an apprentice of someone who was willing to accept him.

Learning to control our greatest fears

Almost everyone is afraid of something, whether that's snakes, heights, or public speaking.

Fearing something is natural and common, and can even be helpful to frighten ourselves sometimes. In fact,fear can keep our bodies alert (警觉的) so we can act quickly to protect ourselves in the event of danger.

But for some people, fear develops into a “phobia", which is a strong and unreasonable fear of something.

For example, most of us feel a little scared when looking down from a tall building. But people with terrible acrophobia——a fear of heights——may not only feel dizzy (头晕的) when faced with a great height, they may also even turn down a great job just because the company's office is on a high floor of a building.

Indeed, phobias can prevent some of us from living a normal life. According to Katherina Hauner, a researcher at Northwestern University in the US, people who are terribly scared of spiders might stay away from their home for days if they knew a spider was there.

However, since it's thought that fear comes from personal experiences or memories, some scientists believe it's possible to “rewrite” these unpleasant memories, helping people get through their phobias.

In a study by Hauner and other scientists, people with arachnophobia一a fear of spiders一were asked to first touch a spider with a paintbrush. Once they saw it wasn't really dangerous, they then tried touching it while wearing a glove. Finally, they were able to hold it with their hands directly.

Certain medicine has also been found to be helpful. Back in 2015, researchers at the University of Hiroshima in Japan injected (注射) a special medicine into a fish—which was afraid of light一to turn off the fear centre in its brain. From then on, the fish no longer feared light.

While the search for ways to deal with phobias is making great progress, there's still the question of whether getting rid of (去除) fear is a good idea or not. In fact, Dave Smithson of the charity Anxiety UK thinks it's a bad idea.“It's fear that prevents us from doing crazy things," he said.“There's a name for people who don't have fear of consequences: psychopaths (精神变态者)”

34.The main point of the article is to____________.

A. show us what kind of role fear plays in our lives

B. discuss if it is good to try to get rid of fear

C. tell us about fear and phobia

D. discuss scientific studies about fear

35. How does the writer make the meaning of “phobia” clear”?

A. By making comparisons

B.By giving examples.

C. By giving statistics

D.By giving lively descriptions (描述).

36. Which of the following shows the progress scientists have made in finding ways to deal with phobias?

A.They can use phobias to keep our bodies alert.

B. They can now reduce the pain that is connected with the phobia.

C. New medicine can shut off fear centers in animal brains whenever needed

D. They have succeeded in helping some people pay no attention to the bad memories connected with

their phobia.

37. Which of the following would Dave Smithson probably agree with?

A. There is nothing to fear except fear itself.

B. We should not let fear influence our decisions.

C. Fear is not a completely bad thing.

D.Without fear, everyone would be brave.
