(10 points) Optimism and pessimism are both powerful forces. Each of us must choose which we want to 1 our future and our expectations. We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or 2 . It’s our decision: from which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in 3 or down in desperation?I believe in the upward look. I choose to 4 the positive and skip right over the negative.An optimistic attitude is not a luxury(奢侈品); it’s a(n) 5 . The way you look at life will determine how you feel, how you perform, and how well you will get along with other people. 6 , negative thoughts, attitudes, and expectations 7 themselves; they become a self-fulfilling prophecy(预言). Pessimism creates a dark place where no one wants to live.Years ago, I drove into a service station to get some gas. It was a beautiful day, and I was feeling great. As I walked into the station to pay for the gas, the attendant said to me, “ How do you feel?” That seemed like a(n) 8 question, but I felt fine and told him so. “You don’t look well,” he replied. This 9 me completely by surprise. A little 10 confidently, I told him that I had 11 felt better. Without hesitation, he continued to tell me how bad I looked and that my skin appeared yellow.By the time I left the service station, I was feeling a little 12 . About a block away, I 13 over to the side of the road to look at my face in the mirror. How did I feel? Was I affected with jaundice(黄疸)? Was every all right? By the time I got home, I was beginning to feel a little nauseous(恶心). Did I have a bad liver? Had I 14 some rare disease?On another beautiful day, when I went into that gas station, feeling 15 again, I figured out what had happened. The place had recently been painted a bright, distasteful 16 , and the light reflecting 17 the walls made everyone inside look as though they had hepatitis(肝炎)! I wondered how many other folks had 18 the way I did. I had let one short conversation with a total 19 change my attitude for an entire day. He told me I looked sick, and before long, Iwas actually feeling sick. That single 20 observation had a great effect on the way I felt and acted.The only thing more powerful than negativism is a word of optimism and hope. When a whole culture adopts an upward look, incredible things can be accomplished.1、A.shape B.decide C.preview D.transform2、A.forgive B.curse C.praise D.regret3、A.vain B.anger C.action D.hope4、A.highlight B.analyze C.evaluate D.introduce5、A.necessity B.opportunity C.quality D.identity6、A.Actually B.Consequently C.Similarly D.Contrarily7、A.rely on B.feed on C.go on D.take on8、A.familiar B.ordinary C.odd D.easy9、A.got B.took C.stopped D.made10、A.more B.less C.quite D.too11、A.never B.ever C.once D.always12、A.uneasy B.unconcerned C.unsatisfied D.unaffected13、A.got B.came C.took D.pulled14、A.come up B.brought up C.picked up D.put up15、A.fine B.upset C.sick D.calm16、A.gray B.blue C.yellow D.red17、A.in B.over C.off D.through18、A.quit B.adapted C.answered D.reacted19、A.liar B.onlooker C.attendant D.stranger20、A.positive B.negative C.careful D.rigidSection II Reading ComprehensionPart ADirections:Read the following four texts.

(40 points)Text 1 Any foreigner who has tried to learn Chinese can tell how hard it is to master the tones required to speak and understand. And anyone who has tried to learn to play the violin or other instruments can report similar challenges.Now researchers have found that people with musical training have an easier time learning Chinese. Writing in the online edition of Nature Neuroscience,researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(音调).One of the study's authors,Nina Kraus,said the findings suggested that studying music “actually tunes our sensory system”.This means that schools that want children to do well in languages should hesitate before cutting music programs,Dr. Kraus said. She said music training might also help children with language problems.Mandarin(普通话)speakers have been shown to have a more complex encoding(编码) of pitch patterns in their brains than English speakers do. This is because in Mandarin and other Asian languages,pitch plays a central role. A singlesyllable word can have several meanings depending on how it is intoned.For this study,the researchers looked at 20 nonChinese speaking volunteers,half with no musical background and half who have studied an instrument for at least six years.As they were shown a movie,the volunteers also heard an au。
