Institute of Psychology (心理研究所) 1141 Cumberland Avenue, Pittsburgh 12 June 2016 Volunteers are wanted for a study trying to find out the effect of aging on cognition (认知). Everyone’s cognition is characterised by “thinking styles”. Recent research has shown that older people use different thinking styles to younger people. The aim of this study is to investigate what these differences are, and to discover what are responsible for these differences. People from adult age groups will take part in the study. We are particularly eager to attract people between 50 and 70, and especially men of this age, because usually fewer people of this group volunteer. If you choose to take part, you will be asked to complete a set of questionnaires and take an assessment (评估) at the institute. The assessment takes about 60 minutes, and includes computer and pen-and-paper puzzles and tasks. For this you can schedule a time that suits you. Volunteers will be repaid $40 for their time. If you think you might be interested in this project, we would like to hear from you. Contact Kylie Riordan at kylie-r@google.com or on 302-555-6773. |
Dear Kylie, I would like to take part in your study. I took part in another cognition study at your institute six weeks ago, so I have some ideas of the kind of things I need to do. However, since it is now mid-September, you may have finished your study. If you do want me, I’m free on most weekends. I also want to know if you’ll pay travel costs. In the last study, they did not, but they said they were thinking of doing so in the future. If I take the train, it’ll cost me $5. Looking forward to hearing from you. Yours, Melody Cranberry |

27、For most people, growing older means getting weaker. But this is far from the case of this 83-year-old woman Ernestine Shepherd, one of the world’s oldest female bodybuilders. Born in 1936, she is still exercising and working out, keeping up her strength, and looking absolutely fit!
Her journey to fitness all began when she turned 56. “I seldom worked out—you couldn’t get me away from chocolate cake. But that day, my sister and I went shopping for swimsuits. I looked in the changing room mirror and realized that I was getting out of shape and needed to start exercising,” she told BBC.
She started with simple training and eventually shifted to bodybuilding and weight lifting. She then decided that she should try to get into the Guinness Book of World Records as the oldest bodybuilder on the planet.
Though the idea seemed big, it was something that was worth working towards. Ernestine trained harder. At the age of 71, she took part in her first bodybuilding competition and won the top prize! Her dream finally came true—Guinness contacted her and officially honored her as the world’s oldest female bodybuilder. A year later, she lost the title but remained to be one of the world’s oldest female bodybuilders.
She is now retired from competing but she is still into bodybuilding. Her extraordinary diet includes egg, chicken, and turkey. She has inspired so many people with her journey, and many come up to her and ask for advice. She also started working as a personal trainer and has published her own book, “Determined, Dedicated, Disciplined To Be Fit”. Ernestine is living proof that it is never too late for anyone to achieve their goals!
【1】What do the underlined words “getting out of shape” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Putting on weight.
B.Losing balance.
C.Becoming weak.
D.Turning strong.
【2】When did Guinness get in touch with Ernestine Shepherd?
A.When she turned 56.
B.As soon as she started training.

【3】What can we infer about Ernestine Shepherd?
A.She is the oldest female bodybuilder.
B.She began bodybuilding thanks to her sister.
C.Her habit of living was once unhealthy.
D.She took up exercise before she was 56.
【4】What can we learn from the text?
A.Exercise makes one young and happy.
B.It’s never too old to achieve a goal.
C.We should be positive about ourselves.
D.A thousand-mile journey begins with the first step.

29、 People travel for a lot of reasons. Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines ( 宗教圣殿). Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places. But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on.
Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents (居民) of cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year in the rain. This is the reason the Mediterranean has always attracted them. Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation. They all come for the same reason: sun!
The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries. Italy’s 30,000 hotels are booked solid ( 全部客满) every summer. And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks, and roadsides. Spain’s long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else. 37 million tourists visit yearly, or one tourist for every person living in Spain.
But there are signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth. And with increased tourism, it’s getting worse. The French can’t figure out what to do with all the garbage left by campers around St. Tropez. And in many places, swimming is dangerous because of pollution.
None of this, however, is spoiling anyone’s fun. The Mediterranean gets more popular every year with tourists. Obviously, they don’t go there for clean water and solitude (清净自在). They tolerate traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They don’t even mind the pollution. No matter how dirty the water is, the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it’s still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo.
【1】The writer seems to imply that Europeans travel mostly for the reason that _____.
A.they want to see historic remains or religious spots
B.they are interested in different cultural traditions and social customs
C.they wish to escape from the cold, dark and rainy days back at home
D.they would like to take pictures in front of famous sites
【2】In paragraph 2, cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam are mentioned _____.
A.to tell us how wealthy their residents are
B.to show that they are not good cities in terms of geography and climate
C.to suggest that these cities lack places of historic interest and scenic beauty
D.to prove that they have got more tourism than they can handle
【3】The latter half of the last sentence in Paragraph 3, “or one tourist for every person living in Spain” means _____.
A.all the 37 million people living in Spain are tourists
B.every Spanish is visited by a tourist every year
C.every person living in Spain has to take care of a tourist
D.every year almost as many tourists visit Spain as there are people living in that country
【4】According to the passage, which of the following factors might spoil the tourists’ fun at Mediterranean resorts and beaches?
A.Rainy weather B.Polluted water C.Traffic jams D.Crowded buses
30、My daughter and I were fans of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, an educational children’s television series created and hosted by Mister Rogers.
Around my daughter’s second birthday, I had an idea _________ by Mister Rogers. Why not invite one key person in my daughter’s world to dinner? I wanted to start at the top.

One month later, no reply. My daughter hadn’t forgotten and often asked when Mister Rogers would be visiting. I _________ told her that he hadn’t called yet and that it was a golden opportunity to learn about _________ .
Two months later, no response. At the three-month mark, my wife simply _________ her eyes when I raise the topic. I was beginning to lose confidence. Mister Rogers had let me _________ .
Unfortunately, Mister Rogers passed away in late February of the following year. I came to understand why our invitation had gone __________ . Mister Rogers would not be coming to dinner after all.
