22、   In a recent interview, Lisa Feldman Barrett, professor of Psychology at Northeastern University, offered some advice to older people to help them keep the cognitive(认知) skills improved.

Challenge yourself on a regular basis, she urged, but don’t just do so casually. Study any new topic hard, until you feel tired and frustrated. This level of effort, she added, is associated with increases in the ease of communication within the brain and, as a result, cognitive skills will be improved.

Her advice is based on a study of “superagers”, individuals of 65 years or older, whose cognitive skills are as acute as the average 25-years-olds. Lisa believes that what sets superagers apart is their ability to use the unpleasant feelings they experience when challenging themselves as a signal to keep going, rather than as a warning to stop and rest.

While she provides convincing data to prove how cognitively young these superagers are, I’m not sure her conclusion about why this is so gives the whole picture.

Are superagers simply those who ignore, or even welcome, the pain and frustration that comes with intense mental effort? Or is there some other reason why they spend so much time and effort challenging themselves?

This is important, because if the only way to maintain youthful cognitive skills is to expose ourselves regularly to pain and frustration, it doesn’t make old age look particularly inviting.

Contrary to her opinion, I think “enjoyable” is the key. If what you’re doing is enjoyable, you are more likely to keep working hard at it.—probably without even noticing any discomfort.

Making yourself work until you are exhausted and frustrated holds little appeal. On the other hand, finding an activity you love so much that you don’t even notice when you are pushing yourself hard seems a far more attractive way to keep your brain active as you grow older.

【1】What does Lisa advise older people to do?

A.Work on in spite of feeling bored.

B.Push themselves hard in new fields.

C.Relax by communicating with others.

D.Challenge each other on a regular basis

【2】What matters in keeping the “superagers” sharp according to Lisa?

A.They can respond to warning in time

B.They have the ability to adjust flexibly.

C.They regard pains in study as driving power

D.They can make use of disadvantages in work.

【3】What does the author doubt?

A.The data that the study provides

B.The conclusion that “superagers” are acute.

C.The idea that cognitive skills can be improved.

D.The reason for “superagers” keeping brains active.

【4】What does the author agree with?

A.Unpleasant feelings do harm to people.

B.Cognitive skills improve slowly with age.

C.Enjoyable work makes people ignore discomfort.

D.Doing appealing work makes people look young.

23、   “If they hated me they didn’t talk to me about it,” says a young German manager at a media firm in Frankfurt. Still, he says it was noticeable that when an employee 20 years older than him thanked him for buying lunch he had to swallow twice before adding the word “boss”.

Older workers sometimes envy being managed by a younger colleague. Precocious (老成的) youngsters, too, can feel awkward about bossing their elders around. But in Germany a shortage of skilled workers means that such situations are becoming even more common.

The country’s population is projected to shrink. As more Germans retire，fewer youngsters are entering the work-place to replace them. As a share of the working population the number of

15-to-24-year-olds has fallen by ten percent since the 1980s, says the German Federal Employment Agency. Firms competing to hire young talent have to promote them earlier as a result. A paper by professors at the university of Cambridge and WHU, a German business school, to be published in the Journal of Organizational Behavior, suggests this could be a problem.

As in many countries, German work-places are legally obliged to overlook age when deciding whom to promote. Yet according to Jochen Menges, one of the authors, when an ordinary worker leap-frogs a more experienced one it can leave the latter with feelings of “anger, fear and disgust.” People tend to judge their own standing by the success of their peers, and to see failure in being bossed about by someone younger. The relationship between feelings of anxiety and the age of the boss is clear, according to Mr Menges. A manager who is younger by one year is somewhat unsettling; a gap of 20 years is far more discouraging.

German firms certainly shouldn’t return to a system in which age equals to rank. But young people tend to be sensitive about managing upwards. And older workers should be encouraged to see the bright side of learning new skills. Daimler, a big German car firm, says it promotes age- mixed teams, so that knowledge can be transferred between generations. It also supports young managers by asking retired employees to provide temporary support.

【1】For what does the author mention a young German manager and his experience in Paragraph 1?

A.To introduce the topic. B.To present an argument.

C.To attract readers’ interest. D.To describe his own idea.

【2】Why are some precocious youngsters bossing their elders around in Germany？

A.Precocious youngsters are all skilled workers.

B.Such situations are becoming more common.

C.Fewer youngsters would like to do hard work.

D.Companies compete fiercely to hire young talent.

【3】In which of the following situations might an employee regard himself as a failure according to the passage?

A.When he has to decide whom to promote.

B.When he leap-frogs a more experienced worker.

C.When he is being bossed about by someone younger.

D.When he experiences feelings of anger, fear and disgust.

【4】What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?

A.A younger boss is more likely to be nervous and anxious.

B.An employee with a younger boss tends to suffer from anxiety.

C.There is a connection between anxiety and the age of promotion.

D.The age of the boss and anxiety are closely related.

【5】What can we learn from the passage?

A.Qualified workers should be promoted to boss.

B.Older workers should support younger managers.

C.Older workers are no better than younger colleagues.

D.You are never too old to learn, or too young to mange.

24、Many people rush into the commitment of bringing home a four-legged family member, only to find out that they are not ready for a pet．This often results in the dog being turned over to a shelter where it may not find another home．This can be avoided if potential pet owners take the time to figure out if they are truly ready for the responsibilities of pet ownership．

Being a responsible pet owner involves a financial commitment that goes beyond buying dog fooD． There are also parasite (寄生虫) prevention, boarding costs while traveling and the cost to care for the pet should it become ill or injureD． That is not to say that one must be rich in order to have a dog, but it is important to be prepared for the expenses that come with being a pet owner．

Another consideration is the time commitment．An owner away from home for 14 hours every day is not an ideal situation for a dog．A potential dog owner must also consider the time it takes to care for his or her pet, the time it takes to feed, walk, play with, bathe and clean up．Also, dogs require attention．Be prepared to spend time each day petting and playing with it．

Dogs are dogs, and will act like dogs．This includes barking, digging, having accidents in the house and, possibly, destroying some of the owner’s prized possessions, such as furniture, shoes and cell phones．If the above would cause an owner to want to get rid of the dog, then he or she is not yet ready to be a pet owner．Many wonderful pets end up in shelters simply because they acted like dogs!

【1】Who might be qualified to be a dog owner, according to the text?

A． Jim, who has a daughter sensitive to dog’s smell．

B． Dick, a jobless teenager who can hardly pay his rent．

C． Kari, a teacher who works eight hours a day．

D． Steven, a business man who travels a lot on business．

【2】To be a responsible dog owner you need to do all the following EXCEPT _________．

A． finding a shelter for it when you are bored with it

B． buying dog food and feeding it

C． taking it to hospital when necessary

D． spending time each day playing with it

【3】What does the underlined part in the first paragraph probably mean?

A． Rush to adopt a dog formally．

B． Decide to be a pet owner without thinking about it carefully．

C． Run into a pet shelter and take one home so quickly．

D． Commit to buy a dog and take it home．

【4】What might be the best title for the text?

26、阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。

“What’s this? — Ben Caruthers is trying out for Mr. Zuckerman?” My ears burned at hearing my name. It was Lindsey Stanton, the most popular eighth-grader in Bellworth Middle School, talking to her friends.

I held my breath. She obviously had no clue that my locker was next to Mrs. Stevens’s room, where the tryout schedule for Charlotte’s Web was posted. It sounded that they were worrying that I would ruin the whole play, because I had never acted before. My stomach tightened into a big knot.

Who was I kidding? Lindsey was right. I’d never been in a play. At lunch I told Trevor, my best friend, that I’d changed my mind. I’d join the technical crew instead. That fit my quiet-kid image better anyway. Trevor was surprised to my descision. He was keen on acting and expected my company in the play. He shook his head, but he didn’t try to change my mind. It wouldn’t have made a difference anyway — I was starting to look forward to being on the tech crew.

On Friday I checked the final cast list, just for fun. Trevor was Templeton, and Lindsey Stanton was Mrs. Zuckerman.

Rehearsals (排练) started, and I spent Tuesday and Thursday afternoons at school. It was fun to learn all the technical stuff and to watch the actors from backstage. By the third week I’d memorized everyone’s lines. Trevor and I talked all about the play and the rehearsals during our lunch time.

And then, only a week before the performance, everything fell apart. The eighth-grader who was supposed to play Mr. Zuckerman, crashed his bike and broke his leg. Then his understudy (替角) came down with the flu. Things like this weren’t supposed to happen in real life.

Mrs. Stevens called the cast together. She told us we couldn’t get someone else ready by the next week and that we would have to postpone the play. She frowned and continued, “If the auditorium (礼堂) is booked for later, we may even have to cancel.” For once the cast was silent.

注意：

1. 续写词数应为150左右；

2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Then I heard Trevor’s voice. “Ben Caruthers can do it. He knows all the lines.”

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

When the rehearsal began, I spew (喷出) my lines too quickly and I trembled my body.
