21、In some society it is the custom for parents to arrange the marriages of their children. The father and mother of the bride will meet with the father and mother of the groom, and if both families are pleased with each other, an agreement will be made. Often the brides and grooms will not be asked for their opinion in this matter, and sometimes they do not even meet each other until the day of the wedding. In some countries, men advertise for mail-order brides in the local paper.
Most Americans find the idea of arranged marriages difficult to understand or accept. They believe that two people should marry for love, after a period of dating or courtship. During that period, the prospective marriage partners are supposed to learn enough about each other to decide whether or not they will be able to build a successful marriage. Today in America, it is common for people to live together as a way of preparing for marriage. The idea of an arranged marriage seems very old fashioned indeed.
Families also exert (施加) open and subtle pressure on their children to influence their choices of marriage partners. Parents often arrange dates for their own children. One parent often tells a friend about her beautiful daughter or handsome son. Also, parents can meet the perfect marriage prospect for their son or daughter through business relationships. Since parents often assist their children financially, they feel that they have the right to help the bride and groom select where they will live, what type of furniture they will purchase, and what their life-style will be like.
To a larger extent, social class determines the choice of a marriage partner in the United States. Marriages are usually arranged between people of similar religious, ethnic, and financial backgrounds. Despite what we see in the movies, the son of a bank president rarely marries or even meets a miner’s daughter. Americans may not accept or understand arranged marriages, but marriages in the United States are arranged nevertheless.
【1】Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage?
A．Arranged Marriage

D．Perfect Marriage
【2】Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A．Some men seek their future wife by advertising in the newspaper.

【3】According to the passage, all of the following statements are true EXCEPT that ________.
A．all marriages are not arranged in America
B．in arranged marriages, the brides and grooms never meet before their wedding
C．many Americans think the idea of arranged marriage out of date

【4】We can draw the conclusion that ________.
A．the writer thinks that in America marriages still bear class character
B．despite the different backgrounds, people still marry in America

22、Everything is going to change more in the next ten years than it has in the last hundred, so it’s difficult to think about 100 years in the future. I can only guess what it might be like. 【1】

24、Going to sleep at a certain time is associated with a lower risk of developing heart disease, according to researchers. A team led by the U.K. -based University of Exeter found that going to sleep between 10 and 11 p.m. was beneficial compared to earlier or later bedtimes.
The research included 88,000 participants in the U.K. Biobank who were recruited between 2006 and 2010. The average age of the group — ranging from 43 to 79 years old — was 61 and 58 percent were women. Participants filled out demographic (人口统计的), lifestyle, health and physical questionnaires, according to a European Society of Cardiology news release. The study looked at the association between objectively measured sleep onset timing and cardiovascular disease using wrist-worn accelerometers, collecting a week’s worth of data.
Using Cox proportional hazards models, an age- and sex-controlled base analysis found that sleep on set time of 10 to 10:59 p.m. was associated with the lowest incidence of cardiovascular (心血管的) disease. Another model that controlled for sleep duration, sleep irregularity and established cardiovascular risk factors like smoking status and body mass index did not reduce the impact of the association.
There was a 25 percent higher risk of cardiovascular disease with sleep onset at midnight or later, a 12 percent greater risk for 11 to 11:59 p.m. and a 24 percent raised risk for falling asleep before 10 p.m. compared to sleep onset from 10 to 10:59 p.m. More than 3,170 cases, or 3.6 percent, were reported during an average follow-up period of nearly six years. Sensitivity analyses revealed the association with increased risk of cardiovascular disease was stronger in women, with only sleep onset earlier than 10 p.m. significant for men.
“The body has a 24-hour internal clock, called circadian rhythm (昼夜节律), that helps regulate physical and mental functioning,” study author David Plans of the University of Exeter said in a statement. “While we cannot conclude causation from our study, the results suggest that early or late bedtimes may be more likely to disrupt the body clock, with adverse consequences for cardiovascular health.”
【1】How many participants are male in the study?
A．34,320.
B．51,040.
C．53,680.
D．36,960.
【2】Which of the following can reduce the risk of heart disease according the passage?

B．Sleeping at a proper time.
C．Adjusting the body clock.
D．Increasing sleep time.
【3】Which of the following is the worst sleep onset time according to the passage?
A．9:00 p.m..
B．10:30 p.m..
C．11:00 p.m..

25、One day, I experienced something that caused me to lose my temper, to the point that I was in tears. So frustrated was I that I reached out to a dear and ____ friend to ask for advice on how to let go of ___. And then, I went for a long walk.
As I walked, I ____ my anger and what may have caused it. I heard my friend’s voice saying “drop into the heart space”, a space that love booms and if we allow it, it will ____ our hurts. It is my ____ that hate cannot grow where love ____. I allowed my mind to follow that love and to review what the ____ of my anger was. I realized my anger is the result of many emotions that are normal.
There is a ____ of being overwhelmed, frustrated, tired and there is sorrow ____ as well. And perhaps the sorrow is the biggest one. For example, it is not easy to ___ a parent’s falling weak even when I recognize that it is part of the cycle of life. I had not acknowledged my sorrow until a friend ____ that it was part of my anger, and she was correct. I am grateful for having friends I can reach out for ____ and comfort.
I am now able to ____ my anger, to drop into the heart space, to send out love and light, and to let go of any frustration rather than to ____ my anger. I know it will get easier if I am ____ with myself and allow the healing that is needed to happen.
