25、Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you. Well, ni-hao. (Laughter) It is such a pleasure and an honor to be here with all of you at this great university, so thank you so much for having me. I’m here today because I know that our future depends on connections like these among young people like you across the world.

That’s why when my husband and I travel abroad, we don’t just visit palaces and parliaments (国会) and meet with heads of countries. We also come to schools like this one to meet with students like you, because we believe that relationships between countries aren’t just about relationships between governments or leaders — they’re about relationships between people, particularly young people. So we view study abroad programs not just as an educational chance for students, but also as an active part of America’s foreign policy (政策).

Through the wonders of modern technology (科技), our world is more connected than ever before. Ideas can cross different countries with the click of a mouse. Companies can do business and compete with companies across the world. And we can text, email, skype with people in the world.

So studying abroad isn’t just a fun way to spend a time of learning; it is quickly becoming the key to success in our times. Because getting ahead in today’s workplaces isn’t just about getting good grades or test scores in school, which are important. It’s also about having real experience with the world beyond (超出) your borders—experience with languages, cultures and societies very different from your own. Or, as the Chinese saying goes: “It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.”

【1】Where did the speaker probably give the talk to the audience?

A. In a university. B. In the Parliament Hall.

C. On the Internet. D. In a place of interest.

【2】The passage shows that the world’s future depends on _______.

A. getting good grades

B. traveling abroad

C. connections among young people

D. texts and emails

【3】What is the meaning of the underlined word “compete” in Paragraph 3?

A. 完成   B. 比较 C. 竞争   D. 抱怨

【4】In the speaker’s opinion, what is the key to success in our times?

A. Going to a university.

B. Doing more exercises.

C. Studying abroad.

D. Getting good test scores.

【5】Where may the passage come from?

A. A story. B. A news report.

C. A scientific magazine. D. A speech.

26、Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turn around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!

Parapsychologists(灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a “six sense” really exists, Robert Baker, a psycholog-ist(心理学家) at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.

In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects (受试者) were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was

sitting behind them during those periods. Later when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.

For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt themselves being stared at and when they weren’t. Baker found the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren’t.

Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they are being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said Baker, “I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”

【1】What’s the aim of the two experiments for?

A. Prove why humans have a sixth sense.

B. Explain when people can have a sixth sense.

C. Show how people act while being watched in the lab.

D. Study whether humans can sense when they are stared at.

【2】What sense do parapsychologists say that humans have?

A. A natural ability   B. A natural staring ability

C. A strange thinking     D. A looking feeling

【3】The underlined word “outcome” in the last paragraph most probably means?

A. Value     B. Result

C. Performance D. Connection

【4】In the second experiment, the subjects ________.

A. could tell when they were stared at and when they weren’t.

B. couldn’t tell when they were stared at and when they aren’t

C. couldn’t tell when they were stared at but could tell when they weren’t.

D. could tell when they were stared at but couldn’t tell when they weren’t.

【5】What can we learn from the passage?

A. People are born with a sixth sense.

B. The experiments support parapsychologists’ idea.

C. The subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.

D. People have a sixth sense in all places.

27、Whenever we watch a horror movie and something scary happens, we might close our eyes and scream. However, chances are that we will continue to watch and enjoy the movie anyway. So why can fear be so much fun?

According to a recent study conducted  at the University of Pittsburgh in the US， watching horror movies can raise our mood, unite people and increase our confidence.

In the study, 262 adults were asked to enter a haunted house. Inside，they were met with a series of intense(紧张的) things over a course of 35 minutes，and were asked to record their feelings both before and after the experience. At the same time, the researchers also monitored their brain waves. According to the researchers, the participants（参加者） were more likely to be happier and less anxious and tired after they left the house. That's because in this intense condition, their brains produce more dopamine.

What’s more, taking advantages of this sensation may bring people together .  Experiencing the haunted house is just like running a 5 kilometers race or tackling a difficult climbing wall. This means that people in scary situations may be more likely to be uncertain and depend on others for support. “ We build a special closeness with those we are with when we are in an excited state,” said Margee Keer ,one of the study's authors, told The Atlantic. “ We're social and emotional beings---- we need each other in times of stress. So the fact that our bodies have evolved to make sure we feel close to those we’re with when afraid makes sense.”

In addition, being scared in a safe place could be a good way to increase our confidence. “Being scared in a safe place is a source of enjoyment and makes us feel good physically and can even serve as a confidence boost by reminding us that we can make it through a scary situation. We are strong.” Keer told The Independent.

【1】The passage mainly tells us ____________.

A. fear can help us increase our confidence.

B. why fear can be so much fun.

C. fear is important in our daily life.

D. what happens in some horror movies?

【2】It's clear that_____________ .

A. People in scary situations surely unite together.

B. Experiencing in the haunted house may help to raise mood.

C. Being scared can make us feel good physically.

D. Scary things are helpful.

【3】In Margee Keer’s opinion_________.

A. Everyone should watch horror movies.

B. We feel close to those who’re with us when we feel anxious.

C. Going through a scary situation can help us to increase our confidence.

D. We don't need each other in times of stress.

【4】The underlined word dopamine means_________ .

A. Knowledge

B. Power

C. Something that can make you tired.

D. a chemical which produces happy feelings.

【5】Compare experiencing a haunted house to a 5 kilometers race to show that___.

A. the fear may bring people together.

B. the fear can increase our confidence.

C. the experience can raise our mood

D. experiencing in a haunted house is difficult.

28、New rules and behavior standards for middle school students came out. Who are considered excellent students? Middle schools use a new way to d【1】 that. The best students won't have good grades. They will also be kids who don’t dye (染) their hair, smoke o【2】 drink. The following are some of the new rules.

Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone others’ work during an exam? Don't do that again! That’s not an h【3】 student should do. If you played computer games for two hours in your room, don’t tell your parents you were doing your homework.

Do more at school. Good students care for both animals and o【4】 people. April is Bird-Loving Month in China. Is your school doing anything to celebrate? You should join ! That way, you can learn more about animals and learn how to protect them. And when your classmates

are in trouble, remember to give them a h【5】. You know a friend in need is a friend

indeed.

Use Internet c【6】. The Internet can be very useful to your studies, but some things on the Internet aren’t for kids. So try to look at web pages that are good for you. You can use the web for fun or homework.

Be o【7】 to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Maybe you can discover a new planet someday. Don’t look down on new ideas. You should welcome them because new ideas can make life better.

29、阅读下面短文，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

About 10 years ago， I started a job as a trainer . In one of my first classes， the head trainer told a very     story that I would like to share with you.

He began by drawing a     standing in the middle of a circle. To make it more interesting， he drew things like a house， a car， and a few friends inside the circle.

He asked the question， "Can anyone tell me what this is?" In a long silence， one guy decided to     his idea， "the world?" The trainer said， "That's close and this is your Comfort Zone. Inside your circle you have all the things that are     to you. Your home， your family， your friends and your job. People feel that inside this circle they are safe from any     or conflict. "

"Can anyone tell me what happens when you step     this circle?" A strong silence came over the room. The same eager guy announced， "You are afraid. "     guy said， "You make mistakes. " The silence continued and the trainer smiled and said， "When you make mistakes，     can the result be?" The first guy shouted， "You     something. "

"Exactly， you are learning. " The trainer turned to the board and drew an arrow    from the man directly to the outside of the circle. He continued to say，  "When you leave your Comfort  Zone you put     out there， in front of the world to be in situations that you are not     with. The end result is that you have learned     that you did not know and you expand your knowledge to become a better person. "  He turned again to the board and drew a     circle around the original circle， and added a few new things like more friends， a bigger house， etc.

"The moral of the story is that if you stay inside your Comfort Zone， you will    be able to expand your horizons and learn. When you step out of your Comfort Zone you will finally make your circle bigger and your mind grow stronger， and all in all a better person. "
