Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing (做针线活) or reading.
After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn't wash her window. It really looks terrible.”
One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside. Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, I can see the woman sitting by her window clearly. Her window was clean! Then 1 suddenly realized I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.
That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings (缺点)
Since then, whenever I wanted to judge someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window ” Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.
57. What's the relationship between the writer and the woman
A. They are friends. B. They are student and teacher.
C. They arc neighbors. D. They are doctor and patient.
58. How did the writer know the woman's window is dirty
A. Everything was unclear through the window.
B. He went to the woman's house to find.
C. The woman was busy doing the house work.
D. The writer knew the woman wasn't at home.
59. Which one is right according to the text
A. They lived in a small town. B. The writer often washed the window.
C. They both worked as cleaners. D. The writer had never met the woman before.
60. What can we learn from the passage
A. One shouldn't criticize others very often.
B. One must judge himself before he judges others.
C. One should often make his windows clean.
D. One must look at others through his dirty windows.
D
About one-third of a person's life is spent in sleep. Studies have shown that a good night's rest helps us stay healthy. Researchers say sleep is probably the best tool we have for memory and learning.
“Getting a good night's sleep is important for the learning and memory. It's important because it stores the training and learning exercises into our memory forever while we're sleeping 7-8 hours in bed. And then the next morning when we wake up, our mind is better prepared to act on that information,” Twery, an expert on the science of sleep said.
But what about getting rest during the middle of the day Past studies have shown that napping (打盹) can help babies and young children learn better. In fact, napping can help older adults with their brain to remember things better.
The researchers studied 3, 000 people and found that those who took an hour-long nap did much better on mental (智力的) tests. The hour-long nappers also did better on the tests than those who napped for shorter and longer periods. But researchers note that these findings are for those over 65, but for the young and healthy adults, an hour-long nap may be too long.
“At present, we're suggesting that we try to nap for about 30 minutes or less. Thirty minutes is enough to remove (消除) the pressure and will help us feel more awake. If we nap longer, we will get trapped into the deep sleep, which can be hard to get out of,” Twery said. This feeling is called sleep inertia (迟钝)—the period when you are awake from a very deep sleep. For a time, you are unable to think clearly.
61. It's important for the learning and memory to get ___________.
A. good health B. good food C. good sleep D. good tool
62. The underlined word “get trapped into” means “___________”.
A. get up B. stay up C. get out of D. fall into
63. Who are supposed to have an hour-long nap
A. Young people. B. Old people. C. Healthy adults. D. Students.
64. In which part of a newspaper can we find the passage
A. NATURE B. SPORTS C. HEALTH D. CULTURE
65. What is the best title for the passage
A. A Good Night's Sleep Helps us Stay Healthy
B. Good Sleep Improves Learning and Memory
C. Students should Have a Good Night's Sleep
D. The old Man should Have a Good Nap

Many Americans find silence uncomfortable during a dinner. So in the United States people often make “small talk” in certain social situations (社交场合). Small talk is about different topics. only for keeping a conversation going. The topics might include the weather, sports, college lessons, clothing, food, etc. Small talk is very useful in social situations when you meet someone for the first time, or when polite conversion is expected but no serious discussion is wanted.
It is common that one knows someone before talking with him. In fact, at a party, “May I join you ” and a self-introduction is useful enough to get a welcome from a group and to join in a conversation. In some places, such as a concert hall or a theatre, a waiting room or a classroom, it's common for strangers to start a conversation even without an introduction.
People in the States expect those whom they speak to stop whatever they are doing and listening. As a rule, the conversation distance (距离) between two people is at least two or three feet. Standing very close will make many Americans feel uncomfortable.
