Everyone knows you must exercise to keep good health. And we believe (or likely so) that healthy people are cool. That’s why there are always many exercise clubs, training videos, magazines and books offering to help us stay physically fit.
Unluckily, our culture doesn’t pay the same attention to mental* fitness. We don’t have the same respect for smart, educated, mentally healthy people. This is a pity, because there are great rewards* for people who have developed the ability to think well.
If your mind is well trained, you will be able to understand a great deal of what happens around you. And if you are also well educated---you will find it much easier to make good decisions* throughout your life. Over the long run, this can make you control* over your goal and have a much better life than anything else.
People who are poorly educated or who don’t think well---that is, people who are not mentally fit---see things differently. Their world is controlled by others. They live in a system they can never control, and they are made to follow rules they will never understand. They are told what to do, what to think, how to spend their money, and what should and should not get in life.
In my opinion, if you want to live well, you must be able to use your mind well. For this reason, I want you to be able to concentrate, to understand accurately, and to think clearly and quickly. Such skills will make it easier for you to make decisions, understand events, choose friends, manage your money well, make wise long-term decisions and enjoy music, art and more.
The key to developing such skill is to enjoy learning, and to have the ability and willing to teach yourself.
( ) 29. The writer of the passage feels sorry that ____.
A. people always do little to keep physically fit.
B. people sometimes do too much to keep mentally fit
C. mentally healthy people are less popular as those mentally healthy people
D. physically healthy people are as popular as those mentally healthy people
( ) 30. The underlined word “this” in the 3rd paragragh means ____.
A. the understanding body and mind
B. good traing body and mind
C. being able to make good decisions in life
D. the understanding of basic science and mathematics
( ) 31. The writer of this passage thinks those who are not mentally fit ____.
A. live a poor but relaxed life B. can’t control over their life
C. often do what others do D. enjoy listening to others orders
( ) 32. The passage is mainly about ____.
A. keeping physical fit B. developing mental ability
C. making your own decisions D. exercising hard and thinking hard
(C)
What are the kindest things that you have done? Once, years ago, I made a list, on a late night flight to my hometown.
My sister had called to tell me that our mother was dying and that if I wanted to say goodbye, I needed to get there fast. So I made calls to cancel work and hurried to catch the last flight.
After taking off, the lights went down and I felt empty and alone.
What do you do when get lonely and there’s no one to hold you? How do you fill a hungry heart?
I took out a notebook and listed all the kindness that others had ever given to me.
Five hours later, when we landed, I closed the notebook and rushed to the hospital to say goodbye to my mother.
Making that list of kindness that night helped me in the coming days to do the things I needed to do and be the daughter I wanted to be.
Kindness heals* and fills an empty heart. It’s a gift, once and for always.
Last night it was cold and rainy, so I lay on the bed with a blanket. Warm then, I thought of being 7 years old in Mrs Harrison’s second grade class.
That morning, I wore my new shoes to school. I loved the shoes and all the way to school on the bus couldn’t stop looking at them. But when I stepped off the bus, my right foot---and my new right shoe---went deep into a puddle* of water.
Mrs Harrison saw the water I was dripping* into class. She said, “Give me those and warm your feet by the fire.”
“Thank you, ma’am,” I said.
“No trouble! We all hit a puddle now and then!”
I don’t know if she remembered it. But I do. It warmed my feet for a few hours. But it warmed my heart for a lifetime.
Often, acts of kindness seem to be the simplest thing. But if we can remember then with thankfulness and pass them on from one in need to another, they will become more beautiful than when we just sing* them.
( ) 33. The author thinks listing kindness can ____.
A. encourage her to be a better daughter
B. help her not bored any more
C. make her know how lucky she was as a child
D. let her think that she was not as good as others
( ) 34. The author mentioned her experience in the second grade mainly to ____.
A. tell us that children always love new shoes
B. show us how thankful he was to Mrs Harrison
C. ask other teachers to care more about their students
D. say that small acts of kindness can mean a lot to someone
( ) 35. What most probably happened after Goldie went to the farmhouse?
A. Goldie was missing again and couldn’t be found.
B. Her owner gave her baby dog Nugget to the writer.
C. The writer abandoned Goldie because he had Nugget.
D. The writer had a daughter Nugget, who looked like her mother.
36. Why does the author think kindness is a gift for always? (请用约40词回答)
