AThe following are four books that will help you change your mind and change your life.1) You Can Heal Y our Life, Louise Hay: A groundbreaking book when it was released in 1982. It is still the book that I turn to when I have physical unrest that requires deeper understanding. Louise Hay is the pioneer in looking at the connection between the physical unrest that we have in our body and the emotional connection. At the time that she wrote the book many people scoffed at this idea, but it is now widely accepted and millions of people refer to it on a daily basis.2) The Four Agreements, Don Miguel Ruiz: Maintaining a sense of reliability and faith is developed through understanding to The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz written in 1997. We are faced with rules and regulations; don’t do this, don’t do that, watch what you are doing, bekind, loyal, faithful etc. The four agreements represent a simple system of maintaining your own inner authority while practicing being a true person with other people.3) Slowing Down to the Speed of Life, Richard Carlson and Joseph Bailey: This is a new one in my “bedside collection” and one that has made the biggest impact on me lately. Written in 1997, it is even more relevant today than it was when it was written. The idea of “slowing down” to get there faster was extremely hard for me to understand. As a human species we seem to enjoy moving fast and expecting quick results, especially from ourselves. I should be successful now, I should be slim now, get me to my destination now —in contrast to “in the fullness of ti m e” when I am ready.4) The Game of Life and How to Play It, Florence Scovel-Shinn: A classic book that was first published in 1925 and remains one of my favorite books of all time. Scovel-Shinn understood the power of our words to express either our deepest desires or our most horrible nightmares.So where does this leave y ou? The way I see it is if you want to ‘Heal Your Life” then you had better learn how to play “The Game of Life” by learning how to “Slow Down to the Speed of Life” and keep the “Four Agreements”. The solution may not be easy to do but it is simple. In fac t, most solutions are pretty simple, and it is us humans that want to complicate it.21. According to the author, people who are lacking in personal freedom should read ______.A. You Can Heal Your LifeB. The Four AgreementsC. Slowing Down to the Speed of LifeD. The Game of Life and How to Play It22. In which part of a magazine would you probably find this passage?A. Book ReviewsB. Self ImprovementC. Arts & EntertainmentD. Reference & Education23. In the author’s opinion, the four books ______.A. tell us four interesting storiesB. represent four stages of lifeC. represent four attitudesD. offer four ways to change our life and mindBI grew up poor. We had little money, but plenty of love and attention. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, they could still afford a dream. My dream was athletics.By the time I was sixteen, I was good at baseball and football. My high-school coach was Ollie Jarvis. He not only believed in me, but taught me the difference between having a dream and showing conviction (信念).One summer a friend recommended me for a summer job. This meant a chance for money in my pocket — cash for dates with girls, certainly, money for a new bike and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother.Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing. I was dreading (害怕) this, but my mother said, “If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.”Whe n I told Coach Jarvis, he was as mad as I expected him to be. “Your playing days are limited. You can’t afford to waste them,” he said.I stood before him with my head hanging, trying to think of the words that would explain to him why I dreamed of buying my mom a house.“How much are you going to make at this job, son?” he demanded.“Three twenty-five an hour,” I replied.“Well,” he asked, “is $3.25 an hour the price of a dream?”That question laid bare for me the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal. I devoted myself to sports that summer, and within the year I was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play rookie-league ball, and offered a $20,000 contract. I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $1.7 million, and bought my mother the house of my dream.24. The writer was grateful to Coach Jarvis, because Jarvis ______.A. made him set a goalB. gave him financial supportC. helped him show convictionD. supplied him with new clothes25. When the writer was offered a job, he wanted to ______.A. balance summer baseball and the work scheduleB. refuse the job offer for summer baseballC. give up summer baseball for the jobD. ask his coach Jarvis for advice26. Which of the following can replace the underlined sentence?A. A good beginning makes a good ending.B. You must rely on yourself first, then others.C. Believe in yourself, but above all be patient.D. You must eat the bitter fruit of your own making.27.The end of the story was that the writer ______.A. succeeded as a sportsmanB. failed to buy his mother a houseC. became a successful businessmanD. made some money in the summer jobCA young woman sits alone in a café sipping tea and reading a book. She pauses briefly to write in a nearby notepad before showing her words to a passing café waiter: “Where are the toilets please?”This is a familiar scene in Tokyo’s so-called “silent cafés”, where customers are not allowed to speak, and only communicate by writing in notepads.The concept rises by a desire to be alone among young Japanese, a situation brought by economic uncertainty, a shift in traditional family support structures and the growing social isolation. The phenomenon is not limited to coffee shops but covers everything from silent discos, where participants dance alone wearing wireless headphones connected to the DJ, to products such as small desk tents designed for conversation-free privacy in the office. One Kyoto company even offers single women the opportunity to have a “one woman wedding”—a full bridal affair, complete with white dress and ceremony, and the only thing missing is the groom. The trend has its own media expression —“botchi-zoku”, referring to individuals who consciously choose to do things completely on their own.One recent weekday afternoon, Chihiro Higashikokubaru, a 23-year-old nurse, travelled 90 minutes from her home, to Tokyo on her day off in order to enjoy some solo time. Speaking quietly at the entrance of the cafe, Miss Higashikokubaru said: “I heard about this place via Twitter and I like the idea of coming here. I work as a nurse and it's always very busy. There are very few quiet places in Tokyo, and it's a big busy city. I just want to come and sit somewhere quietly on my own. I’m going to drink a cup of tea and maybe do some drawings. I like the idea of a quiet, calm atmosphere.”The desire to be isolated is not a new concept in Japan, home to an estimated 3.6 million “hikikomori”—a more extreme example of social recluses (隐士) who withdraw completely from society.28. What is special about the “silent cafes”?A. It provides various tea and books.B. People are not allowed to communicate.C. It has attracted many popular young people.D. It offers service by writing not by speaking.29. Which of the following accounts for the idea of being alone in Japan?A. The increasing social isolation.B. The stable economic situation.C. The rising demand for privacy.D. The rapid development of internet.30. What do we know about Higashikokubaru?A. She doesn’t like to be a nurse.B. Sh e doesn’t like the life in big cities.C. She enjoys her solo time in a quiet place.D. She travelled to Tokyo on her work days.31. What is the best title of the passage?A. Silent cafesB. Lonely JapaneseC. One woman weddingD. Social recluses in JapanDLike it or love it, social media is a major part of life. Clicking on a thumbs-up or a heart icon (图标) is an easy way to stay in touch. Whether you’re on Facebook, What’s App or Twitter, the way of keeping in touch is no longer face to face, but instead screen to screen, highlighted by the fact that more than 1 billion people are using Facebook every day. Social media has become second nature — but what impact is this having on us?Lauren Sherman and her team, who study the brain at Temple University in Philadelphia, mixed 20 teens’ photos with 10 other pictures from public Instagram accounts. Then they randomly gave half of the images many likes (between 23 and 45; most had more than 30). They gave the other half no more than 22 likes (most had fewer than 15).The researchers wanted to find out how the participants’ brains were responding to the different images. While the teens were in a machine, researchers asked them to either like an image or skip to the next one. Teens were much more likely to like images that seemed popular —those that had more than 23 likes, Sherman’s team found. The kids tended to skip pictures with few likes.As part of the experiment, participants were also shown a range of “neutral” photos showin g things like food and friends, and “risky” photos concerning cigarettes and alcohol. When looking at photos showing risky behaviors, such as smoking or drinking — no matter how many likes they had — the brain region linked to cognitive (认知的) control tended to become less active. These kinds of pictures can lower the viewer’s self-control. That means what you like online has the power to influence not just what others like, but even what they do. Viewing pictures like these could make teens let down their guard when it comes to experimenting with drugs and alcohol, Sherman worries.32. What does the text focus on?A. The influence of social media.B. The self-control of teens.C. The behaviors of teens.D. The popularity of social media.33. Which of the following might be included in the experiment?A. Seventeen images are given 20 likes.B. Fifteen images are given 25 likes.C. Fifteen images are given 42 likes.D. Eight images are given 40 likes.34. What’s Sherman’s concern about online photos?A. More likes may be given.B. Misbehaviors may be encouraged.C. More risky pictures may be posted.D. Cognitive control may become less active.35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To condemn immoral social behaviors.B. To promote modern social media.C. To introduce a new research.D. To explain the brain system.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
