Recently, as I watched my son Nathan play basketball for his school team, I was feeling sorry for myself and for him. His team was facing adversity (困境) on the court, trailing for three quarters of the game. As for me, I had just been dismissed from my job.
As I watched what my son was experiencing, I recalled the events earlier in the day—packing up everything in a box and saying goodbye to my colleagues. During the drive home, I kept telling myself that I would find work again—I am confident in my experience and abilities, but self-doubt was still sticking its foot in the door.
The game entered the fourth quarter with Nathan’s team still trailing. I saw the determination on his back to not only tie the game, but then go ahead by three points. Then, a player from the other team made an unbelievable shot to make the game tied again. With the tied scores and seconds on the clock, Nathan found himself with the ball and with skill and confidence, he made the basket with a defender hanging all over him. The other player was called for a foul (犯规).
As Nathan stood preparing for a shot that would put his team up by three points, I saw the focus and determination on his face, with no room for self-doubt. After he made the free throw, his team managed to stop the other team from scoring, winning the game and moving on to the finals.
As I sat there, my heart bursting with pride, it dawned on me that I had taught him perseverance (毅力) in the face of adversity, and he had just taught me the same lesson. That brief moment of self-doubt and feeling sorry for myself was blown away by the actions of my son on the basketball court. He will play in the finals, but it doesn’t matter if he wins or loses. At this moment, we both won.
24．We can learn from the text that ______.
A．I lost my job for lack of experience and abilities
B．Nathan’s team won a narrow victory in the basketball game
C．I was proud of Nathan because he won the game in the finals
D．Nathan had never doubted himself whenever he was in trouble

A．losing B．falling behind C．being defeated D．winning
26．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．My son would win in the finals and I would find a job soon.
B．I had once taught my son face to face that we should never give up.
C．It was my encouragement and help that made my son win the game.
D．I would become more confident about my future after this experience.
27．What is the best title for the text
A．An Inspiring Game B．A Moment of Self-doubt
C．A Lesson from My Son D．An Unforgettable Experience
C
The secret to happiness is keeping busy, research has found.
Keeping the mind occupied with tasks — no matter how meaningless — keeps off negative emotions, the study found.
However, the bad news is that humans are seemingly born to be lazy in order to save energy, according to Professor Christoper Hsee, a behavioral scientist at Chicago University.
In a study, 98 students were asked to complete two surveys. After they had completed the first, they were made to wait 15 minutes to receive the next one. They were given a choice of either handing in the first survey nearby or at a more distant location they had to walk to. Whichever option they chose, they received a chocolate bar. It turned out that approximately two-thirds (68 students) chose the lazy option. Those who had taken the walk reported feeling happier than those who had stayed put.
Prof. Hsee concluded that keeping busy helped keep people happy. He said the findings, reported in the journal Psychological Science, had policy implications.
“Governments may increase the happiness of idle citizens by having them build bridges that are actually useless,” he proposed.
At the individual level, he advised, “Get up and do something. Anything. Even if there really is no point to what you are doing, you will feel better for it.” He added “Incidentally, thinking deeply or engaging in self-reflection counts as keeping busy, too.”
“You do not need to be running around. You just need to be engaged, either physically or mentally.”
28．Keeping busy can make people happy because ______.
A．it can help people get rid of laziness B．it can make people sleep better
C．it can help get rid of negative emotions D．it can give people a sense of achievement
29．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
A．The finding may contribute to politics.
B．The officials have taken Prof. Hsee’s advice.
C．In the study half students handed in the first survey nearby.
D．Governments can increase citizens’ happiness by building bridges.
30．What can we infer from the passage
A．Everybody is born to be happy.
B．Only by keeping working all the time can you gain happiness.
C．Prof. Hsee’s finding was published in Psychological Science.
D．Keeping busy goes against human nature.
31．What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage
A．To explain what happiness is. B．To advise people not to sit around.
C．To advise people to do what they like to. D．To show people how to take life correctly.
D
Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.
While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children’s lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.
According to the report’s key findings, “the proportion (比例) who say they ‘hardly ever’ read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.”
The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 2-8, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.
When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel (建议) parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.
The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.
As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom (逼近) ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.
32．What is the Common Sense Media report probably about
A．Children’s reading habits. B．Quality of children’s books.
C．Children’s after-class activities. D．Parent-child relationships.
33．Where can you find the data that best supports “children are reading a lot less for fun”
A．In paragraph 2. B．In paragraph 3. C．In paragraph 4. D．In paragraph 5.
34．Why do many parents limit electronic reading
A．E-books are of poor quality. B．It could be a waste of time.
C．It may harm children’s health. D．E-readers are expensive.
35．How should parents encourage their children to read more
A．Act as role models for them. B．Ask then to write book reports.
C．Set up reading groups for them. D．Talk with their reading class teachers.

There are no hard and fast rules that say you must exercise in the morning to reach your weight loss or fitness goals. 36 Here are some tips to keep you active and ready for your night-time workouts.
Work out Close to the Office
Ideally, you would want to wear your workout clothes under your work clothes. But, if your job requires you to wear heels and a skirt or a suit and tie, this might not be reasonable. Instead, bring your workout clothes to work with you and change before you leave the office. 37
Plan Your Evening Meal
If you are responsible for making dinner in your household, don’t let that be an excuse to skip the gym. This is why slow-cookers were invented. 38 Having a meal waiting at home for you not only takes away the stress of planning a meal when you walk in the door, but it decreases the chances of you blowing your workout.
Choose a Workout for Your Mood
39 Consider something different, maybe the stair climber. Walk around the gym and see what attracts you, forcing yourself to take part in a workout that doesn’t attract your mood will only lead to a waste of your time.
40
While there are some people who can walk into the gym and just get started most people need a project. Sometime, during the day when you have a moment, make a list of the exercises you hope to accomplish.
A．Plan your workout.
B．Take a special class.
C．There are many benefits for working out at night.
D．Working out at night is a better choice for a lot of people.
E．They were designed to help people manage their time and create healthy meals.
F．The surest way to fail at a workout is to choose something you sincerely hate.
G．Place your gym bag or your clothes where you can see them all day.
