20．Why play games？Because they are fun，and a lot more besides．Following the rules…planning your next move…acting as a team member…These are all"game"ideas that you will come across throughout your life．
Think about some of the games you played as a young child，such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek．Such games are entertaining and fun．But perhaps more importantly，they translate life into exciting dramas that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives，such an taking turns and cooperating（合作）．
Many children's games have a practical side．Children around the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as grown-ups．For instance，some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones，which sharpens the hand-eye coordination（协调）needed in hunting．
Many sports encourage national or local pride．The most famous games of all，the Olympic Games，bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly competition．People who watch the event wave flags，knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country，not just the athlete who earned it．For countries experiencing natural disasters or war，an Olympic win can mean so much．
Sports are also an event that unites people．Soccer is the most popular sport in the world．People on all continents play it-some for fun and some for a living．Nicolette Iribarne，a Californian soccer player，has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer．He created a foundation to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a promising future．
Next time you play your favorite game or sport，think about why you enjoy it，what skills are needed，and whether these skills will help you in other aspects of your life．

8．For the Swiss，punctuality is a source of deep satisfaction．They obtain real joy from the fact that life unfolds on time and in a highly efficient manner．Whenever I visit Switzerland，I go through several stages of punctuality reaction．At first it delights me，especially if I'm coming from Neighbouring Italy or France with their rather more flexible approach to timekeeping．By contrast，life in Switzerland is enthusiastic and dependable．If someone says they will meet me at 2pm，they arrive at 2pm not 2：05 （or 1：55，for that matter）．I like this，for a while．
Then it annoys me．The extreme punctuality strikes me as a kind of being mean，and I find myself agreeing with the English writer Evelyn Waugh who said that"punctuality is the virtue of the bored．"
That is unfair though，and finally I come to appreciate Swiss punctuality for what it is：a deep expression of respect for other people．A punctual person is a considerate one．By showing up on time for everything，a Swiss person is saying，in effect，"I value your time and，by extension，I value you．"
It's no coincidence that the Swiss are the world's watchmakers．Which came first，the precise clocks and watches or the precise people？Hard to say，but the result is the same：a nation where the trains and everything else really do run on time．
How to explain this punctuality？No one knows for sure．But a popular theory is that，historically，it arises from the tough，mountainous area．Either you planted your crops on time and harvested them at the correct time or，well，you starved．
Punctuality，sadly，is a dying art in many parts of the world．Mobile phones are partly to blame．We feel less compelled（紧迫的）to arrive on time if we can always text to say we're running a few minutes late．I don't sense that is happening in Switzerland，though．
Punctuality is not without its weaknesses．Extreme punctuality also creates an expectation，and if that expectation is not met，disappointment follows．On those rare occasions when things do not function smoothly，the Swiss get nervous，confused and angry．

24．What's NOT the author's attitude towards the Swiss punctuality？B
A．Pleasant．
B．Exhausted．
C．Annoyed．
D．Appreciated．
25．What do the Swiss people want to show by arriving on time？A
A．To show their respect for other people．
B．To show that they have the best watches．
C．To show that they are considerate persons．
D．To show that they are the best watchmakers in the world．
26．The passage is probably taken from aC．
A．A history book
B．A business newspaper
C．A cultural guidebook
D．An economic magazine．

15．Although Paris is often considered the city of romance，close to a million adults who call it home are single．Many single people say that France's capital is one of the most difficult places to meet people．The complaints of this lonely group have inspired a new phenomenon known as"supermarket dating"．At Galerie Lafayette Gourmet，singles can shop for more than just the items on their grocery list．They can look for someone who has blue eyes，brown hair，and is 1.8meters tall，or whatever may be on their romantic shopping list．
At this Paris location，single people of all ages can schedule their shopping for Thursday nights between 6：30and 9：00p．m．When they walk through the door，they pick up a purple basket to advise that they are looking for love．They try to arrive early because the baskets disappear quickly，and then they have to wait in line for their turn to wander the store aisles．
With purple baskets in hand，shoppers can consider their romantic options while they pick out their groceries．When they are ready to pay，they can go to the checkout line for singles who want to chat．
Most of the people who look for love in the supermarket are skeptical of Internet dating．They know that it is easy to embellish（美化）one's appearance or to lie about one's age over the Internet．The supermarket，on the other hand，is considered a safe and casual environment in which to meet a potential match．In addition，what one finds in another's grocery basket can say a thing or two about that person's character or intentions．Buying pet food can be a man's way of showing a potential match that he has a sensitive side．Women who fill their baskets with low-fat food show their healthy style of living．These days it's possible to find much more than food at a grocery store．

24．What do many single people in Pairs complain about？A
A．The difficulty in finding a match．
B．The idea of supermarket dating．
C．The items on their grocery list．
D．The inconvenience in shopping．
25．Which of the following can be inferred in the second paragraph？D
A．The dating supermarket is located in Paris．
B．The dating supermarket is open only on Thursday evenings．
C．Only single people can shop in the supermarket．
D．The dating supermarket has very good business．
26．How do love shoppers meet one another？B
A．They schedule their meeting in advance．
B．They go through a special checkout．
C．They pick out their groceries with great care．
D．They dial the phone numbers on their shopping items．
27．Why do the people prefer the supermarket dating to Internet dating？C
A．The supermarket dating is more convenient．
B．The supermarket dating is more fun．
C．The supermarket dating is more trustworthy．
D．The supermarket dating is more economical．

3．Work-life balance means something different to every individual，but here health and career experts share tips to help you find what arc right for you．
A lot of overachievers develop perfectionist tendencies at a young age when demands on their time arc limited to school，hobbies and maybe an after-school job．It's easier to maintain that perfectionist habit as a kid，but as you grow up，life gels more complicated．As you climb the ladder at work and as your family grows，your responsibilities increase rapidly．Perfectionism becomes out of reach and if that habit is left unchecked，it can become harmful．
The key to avoid burning out is to let go of perfectionism．As life gets more expanded it's very hard to keep that habit of perfection going．The healthier option is to work hard not for perfection，but for excellence．
From telecommuting to programmes that make work easier，technology has helped our lives in many ways．But it has also created expectations of constant accessibility．The workday never seems to end．There are times when you should just shut your phone off and enjoy the momcnl．Official instructions over the phone interrupt your off time and add stress to your system．So don't text at your kid's soccer game and don't send work e-mails while you're hanging out with family．By not reacting to the updates from work，you will developing a stronger habit of resilience（弹性）．Resilient people feel a greater sense of control over their lives while reactive people have less control and arc more likely to get stressed．
Even when we're busy，we make time for the crucial things in life．We eat．We go to the bathroom．We sleep．And yet one of our most crucial needs-exercise-is often the first thing to go when our calendars fill up．Exercise is an effective stress reducer．So you should devote quite some time each week to self-care，whether it's exercise，yoga or meditation（冥想）．And if you're really pressed for time，start small with deep breathing exercises during your travel to and from work，a quick five-minute meditation morning and night or replacing drinking alcohol with a healthier form of stress reduction．
These exercises require minor effort but offer major payoffs，Our autonomic nervous system includes two branches：the sympathetic nervous system（our body's stress response） and the parasympathetic nervous system （our body's rest and digest response）．The key is to find something （hat you can build into your life that will activate your parasympathetic nervous system．
