Work your brain!
Between 2 and 3 po ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )unds of wonder, it controls everything we say, do or think, who we are and what we care about. The way we walk or laugh or figure out things. What we like and the talents we possess. How we see and talk and run and jump and process our food.
The brain uses ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) 20 percent of our body’s oxygen and 20 percent of its blood. Somewhere within its protein, fat, 100,000 miles of blood vessels and 100 billion nerve cells, it helps us remember where we put our gym shoes. Change our temperature so we don’t die because of the heat or cold. Speed us up or slow us down. Help us choose between orange juice or orange flavored drinks.
Its complexity are stunning, far beyond anything most of us can imagine. To keep this work of art as polished as possible we need to eat right, exercise and keep mentally stimulated. Good nutrition helps brain cells communicate with each other. Exercise stimulates a hormone in our brain that improves memory. Mental stimulation keeps you sharp even as you age.
“It’s very i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mportant that we tell people to be physically active and mentally active,” said neurologist Malcolm Stewart. “People cannot stop aging, but you’re able to reduce the damage; you’re able to keep the function up.”
Following are Dr. Stewart’s advice for improving brain health:
Nutrition Avoid fast f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ood. Follow the old adage(格言): For breakfast, eat like a king; for lunch, like a queen; for supper, like a beggar.
Exercise Do a combination o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f stretching aerobic and muscle strengthening every day.
Mental games Try to have a sense of hope about the future. Do puzzles. Listen to music. Reach out to others to make their lives better.
59. The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to ______.
A. inform us how the brain works
B. give us advice on how to keep the brain healthy
C. tell us that the brain plays an important role in our lives
D. show how special the brain is to us
60. The underlined word “stunning” means ______.
A. interesting B. strange C. significant D. amazing
61. According to the text,more exercise ______.
A. keeps our mind sharp B. helps improve our memory
C. gives our brain ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a rest D. is good for brain cells communicating with each other
62. In order to keep brain healthy,we should avoid ______.
A. eating a good lunch B. doing puzzles
C. eating a large supper D. taking aerobic exercise
(C)
If a business wants ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )to sell its products internationally, it had better do some market research first. This is a lesson that some large American corporations have learned the hard way.
What’s in the name
Sometimes the probl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )em is the name. When General Motors introduced its Chevy Nova into Latin America, it overlooked the fact that Nova in Spanish means “It doesn’t go”. Sure enough , the Chevy Nova never went anywhere in Latin America.
Translation problems
Sometimes it is the sl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ogan that doesn’t work. No company knows this better than Pepsi-Cola, with its “Come alive with Pepsi!” campaign. The campaign was so successful in the United States , Pepsi translated its slogan literally for its international campaign. As it turned out , the translations weren’t quite right. Pepsi was begging Germans to “Come out of the grave(坟墓)” and telling the Chinese that “Pepsi brings your ancestors(老祖宗) back from the grave.”
A picture’s worth a thousand words
Other times , ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the problem involves packaging . A picture of a smiling baby has helped sell countless jars of Gerber baby food. When Gerber started selling baby food in Africa, they used the same packaging as in the US, with the smiling baby on the label. Later they learned that in African countries , the picture on the jar shows what the jar has in it, for many people there can’t read.
Twist of fate
Even the culture ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )and religious factors and pure coincidence can be involved . Thorn McAn shoes have a Thorn McAn “signature” inside. To people in Bangladesh, which is a Muslim country , this signature looked like Arabic script for the word Allah. In that country , feet are considered unclean, and Muslims felt the company was offending God’s name by having people walk on it.
63. From the text we learned that _________.
A. Chevy Nova was brought in Latin America
B. General Motors did the best market research of all companies
C. Peps ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )i still sold well in China owing to the translation problems
D. the “Come alive with Pepsi” campaign worked well in the US
64.What was “Gerber’s problem”
A. A translation problem B. Cultural factor
C. Religious factor D. The picture on the jar
65. For what reason were Thorn McAn shoes turned down in Bangladesh
A. They are not designed attractively
B. Their advertisements are not persuasive
C. A signature looking like the word Allah was in the shoes
D. Problem for Thorn McAn was the company’s name
66. What does the text mainly tell us
A. Lessons from some l ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )arge corporations. B. How to make use of advertisements
C. The importance of market research D. The importance of packaging
(D)
Experts say crying i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s good for you . Having a good weep at the weekend is becoming more popular among office workers in China.
“I need to cry to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )let my feeling out,” said 22-year-old Xiao Ai, a smart-looking young woman. “I remember one day when I got home I felt so down but I had no one to talk to, so I just hugged my teddy bear and cried myself to sleep,” Xiao Ai said. The next day, she said, she felt much better and life seemed not so bad after all.
Because crying is taken as a sign of weakness, people make a great show of being strong and not displaying emotion. Psychologists and medical practitioners agree that crying is beneficial for mental health but people still regard it as a sign of failure and bottle up their feelings. A famous Chinese author once said to cry is normal, and even brave. Those who display their emotions can deal with their troubles bravely after the tears dry, while those who soldier on let problems fester(恶化).
In the Chao ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Yang district of Beijing, there is a special place for people to cry their sadness out. It is called “Cry Bar”. On the door of each of its “cry rooms” there is a saying encouraging people to let the tears flow freely.
“Crying is a kind of therapy, but it needs some direction,” said a psychologist, “People should realize the point of crying is to relieve pressure, but some of the young people who come to the Cry Bar simply sit and weep. The purpose of crying is to make it easier to improve your life after the tears dry, not to get lost in bad memories. Crying is only one way of relieving pressure, and we need to face problems squarely and solve them once the tears have dried.”
67. Crying _____ made Xiao Ai feel better.
A. in bed before sleep B. all the night with a toy
C. during her sleep D. with some friend
68. According to the third paragraph, people usually make great efforts to_____.
A. act on psychologists’ advice B. get rid of their sadness
C. hide their feelings D. face their troubles bravely
69. What should the customers do at the Cry Bar
A. Think of every sad experience they’ve had and sit and weep.
B. Keep crying as loudly as long as possible.
C. Satisfy any desire to cry and weep until it is gone.
D. Hold back their tears until they can’t help but cry.
70. From the text, we can learn that crying ____.
A. is to relieve pressure B. must help to solve problems
C. means facing problems squarely D. can’t weaken sad feelings.

第四部分:任务型阅读 (共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填1个单词。
The back-to-school sea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )son is upon us, and once again, parents across the country have loaded their kids’ backpacks up with snack packs and school supplies. It’s a good moment to reflect on what else we should be giving our kids as they head off to school.
American pare ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nts are feeling particularly anxious about that question this year. The educational process feels more than ever like a race, one that starts in pre-school and doesn’t end until your child is admitted to the perfect college. Most parents are more worried than they need to be about their children’s grades, test scores and IQ. And what we don’t think about enough is how to help our children build their character—how to help them develop skills like perseverance, optimism, responsibility, and self-control, which together do more to determine success than S.A.T. scores or I.Q.
There is grow ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing evidence that our anxiety about our children’s school performance may actually be holding them back from learning some of these valuable skills. If you’re concerned only with a child’s G.P.A., then you will likely choose to minimize the challenges the child faces in school. With real challenge comes the risk of real failure. And in a competitive academic environment, the idea of failure can be very scary, to students and parents alike.
But experiencing failure is a critical part of building character. Recent research by a team of psychologists found that adults who had experienced little or no failure growing up were actually less happy and confident than those who had experienced a few significant setbacks in childhood. “Overcoming those obstacles,” the researchers assumed, “could teach effective coping skills, help engage social support networks, create a sense of mastery over past adversity, and foster beliefs in the ability to cope successfully in the future.”
By contrast, when ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )we protect our children from every possible failure—when we call their teachers to get an extension on a paper; when we urge them to choose only those subjects they’re good at—we are denying them those same character-building experiences. As the psychologists Madeline Levine and Dan Kindlon have written, that can lead to difficulties in adolescence and young adulthood, when overprotected young people finally confront real problems on their own and don’t know how to overcome them.
In the classroom and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) outside of it, American parents need to encourage children to take chances, to challenge themselves, to risk failure. In the meantime, giving our kids room to fail may be one of the best ways we can help them succeed.

Due to extremely ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) heavy smog, another red alert has been issued in Beijing, indicating it is high time that effective measures should be taken to deal with this serious problem.(30 words)
As far as I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )know, there are several factors contributing to the problem of smog. First and foremost, the waste air coming from cars on roads plays a leading role. In addition, many factories produce large amounts of harmful chemicals, giving rise to the formation of smog. Smoke from daily activities is also responsible, which adds to the severity of this pollution.
As common citiz ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ens, we might as well avoid going out on smoggy days to protect ourselves. If we have to, wear special masks as a defence. What’s more, it’s our responsibility to do our part to reduce air pollution. We can take as much public transportation as possible or ride bikes instead of driving cars, thus creating a clear and safe environment.(124 words)
