    15．As the communication between China and Britain is becoming（71）increasingly（increasing） frequent，the differences between them（72）have caused（cause） a heated discussion in the past few years．
    Firstly，table manners．We get used to（73）using（use） chopsticks while Englishmen use knives and forks．It's not polite to burst into laughter when eating in Britain，（74）whichshows that you don't respect others．（75）Onthe contrary，we laugh and talk during a meal．Secondly，in Britain，they walk along the left side of the road，but traffic in our country keeps to the right．Thirdly，for Chinese students，（76）whatthey have experienced in studying is an organized style．Students are required to follow a clear plan．（77）Compared（compare） with Chinese education，British education is （78）more flexible and imaginative．Students there are encouraged to discuss the subjects they want to learn．Last，in China，"thank you"is not often used between family （79）members （member） while"thank you"is widely used in Britain．
    There is no sense in debating which is better．We owe these manners （80）to a long history，so we should do as the Romans do．

    9．What makes us happy？
    There has long been a opinion that money buys happiness．However，although"we really，really tried that for a couple of generations，it didn't work，"said Francine Jay，author of The Joy of Less，A Minimalist Living Guide：How to Declutter，Organize，and Simplify Your Life．
    Thanks to a travel-inspired revelation （启发），Jay has been happily living a simpler life for 12years．"I always packed as lightly as possible，and found it exhilarating （令人高兴的）to get by with just a small carry-on bag，"she told CNN．"I thought if it feels this great to travel lightly，how amazing would it be to live this way？I wanted to have that same feeling of freedom in my everyday life．"
    Jay decided to get rid of all her excess （额外的）possessions and live with just the essentials．"I wanted to spend my time and energy on experiences，rather than things．"
    Jay is a follower of a movement called"minimalism （极简主义）"．Growing numbers of people have been attracted to this lifestyle all over the world．They share the same feeling of disappointment with modern life and a desire to live more simply．Minimalists are typically progressive and concerned about the environment，Leah Watkins，a lead researcher at Otago University in New Zealand，told Stuff magazine in March．
    But many simply experienced unhappiness caused by owning too many possessions．Depression with the materialism of our world isn't new．English romantic poet William Wordsworth summed up how dispiriting this was back in 1802，at the beginning of the industrial age，when he wrote："Getting and spending，we lay waste our powers"．His preference was to go back to nature．Closer to our owntimes，the hippies （嬉皮士）of the 1960s also sought to"drop out"of modern life．
    And for many minimalists，their key is to unload．Without objects，they"believe people are forced more and more into the present moment and that's where life happens，"wrote Stuff．But does simplicity ever feel like a sacrifice？
    "It's eliminating the excess 一 unused items，unnecessary purchases 一 from your life．Well，I may have fewer possessions，but I have more space…Minimalism is making room for what matters most，"said Jay．
    And"the real questions"，according to Duane Elgin，US social scientist，are"what do you care about？"and"What do you value？"
    He told CNN："It's important for people to realize minimalism isn't simply the amount of stuff we consume．It's about our families，our work，our connection with the larger world，our spiritual dimension．It's about how we touch the whole world．It's a way of life．"

    51．What inspired Francine Jay to live a simple life？C
    A．A book she came across．
    B．A follower of minimalism she met on a trip．
    C．The pleasure she enjoyed from traveling lightly．
    D．Her desire to keep up with modern life．
    52．According to Leah Watkins，a typical minimalist tends toB．
    a．be fed up with materialism
    b．like saving and visiting nature often
    c．be disappointed with his or her current life
    d．be environmentally friendly and live with fewer things
    A．a，b  B．a，d  C．a，b，c  D．b．c，d
    53．The underlined word"eliminating"in the second-to-last paragraph probably meansA．
    A．removing B．distinguishingC．acceptingD．improving
    54．Which of the following would Duane Elgin probably agree withD？
    A．Minimalism is a healthy lifestyle that is in conflict with modern life．
    B．Minimalism means people have to sacrifice some pleasure to live simply．
    C．Minimalism limits people's freedom to enjoy their lives to the fullest．
    D．Minimalism enables people to reflect on what truly counts in their lives．
    55．What was the author's main purpose in writing the text？C
    A．To argue whether money buys happiness．
    B．To recommend one of Francine Jay's books．
    C．To explore the trend of minimalism．

    18．Of the many unpleasant emotions we can experience，fear may top the list．
    （36）F．Fear can also keep us from pursuing the things in life that really matter-like following our dreams，and developing important relationships．I have some ideas，though，of how to be free from fear．
    ●Experience fear．
    I used to be very afraid of speaking in front of people．I would get sweaty palms and my stomach would be so tied up that I wouldn't be able to eat．However，each time I spoke，I noticed afterwards that it wasn't that bad．Things I fear are never as bad in reality as I make them out in my mind．（37）D．
    ●Create space．
    The first and most important step to being fearless is to create some space between ourselves and the emotion of fear．This isn't accomplished by ignoring the fear，or trying to talk ourselves out of it．（38）A．In fact，a recent research shows that by simply admitting the emotion we actually begin to reverse the"fight or flight（逃避）"response in the body．
    ●Control the breath and feel the fear．
    Once we acknowledge the presence of fear，the second step is to control the breathing so that it becomes slower and gentler．We try to make the breath just a little bit longer，and feel how fear manifests（展现） in the body．（39）G．
    With practice，we can create enough space between us and the emotion of fear so that we're able to replace a fearful thought with a positive one．（40）B．For instance，before I get up to speak in front of a group of people，I imagine that the audience is positively impressed by what I say and that I manage to complete the speech successfully．

    A．Space is created only when we can honestly acknowledge that fear exists．
    B．We can imagine a positive outcome for whatever we're about to do．
    C．Fear，if left uncontrolled，can even destroy our life．
    D．So one way to get rid of fear is to simply push ourselves to do things that we fear．
    E．When we can see a positive outcome in our mind，fear no longer holds us back．
    F．But fear is more than just physically unpleasant．
    G．As we pay attention to the physical symptoms of fear，we can see fear objectively．

    19．Looking back on my childhood，I get to believe that naturalists are born and not made．Although we were all brought up in the same way，my brothers and sisters soon threw away their pressed flowers and insects． Unlike them，I had no ear for music and languages． I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic．
     Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary．I have only the unclear memory of the house we lived in，of my room and my toys．Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents，aunts，uncles and cousins who gathered next door．But I do have a clear memory of the dogs，the farm animals，the local birds and，above all，the insects．
     I am a naturalist，not a scientist．I have a strong love of the natural world，and my enthusiasm（热情） has led me into varied investigations（调查）．I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other people's observations and discoveries．Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind．Suddenly you wonder you see the answer to the riddle（迷），because it all seems to fit together．This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books，which some might honour with the title of scientific research．
     But curiosity，a keen eye，a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist； one of the outstanding qualities required is self-discipline，a quality I lack．A scientist requires not only self-discipline but hard training，determination and a goal．A scientist，up to a point，can be made．A naturalist is born．If you can combine the two，you get the best of both worlds．
    32．The first paragraph tells us that the authorC．
    A．was born to a naturalist's family       
    B．lost his hearing when he was a child
    C．didn't like his brothers and sisters      
    D．was interested in flowers and insects
    33．The author can't remember his relatives clearly becauseB．
    A．he didn't live long with them          
    B．he was fully busy observing nature      
    C．the family was too large to remember   
    D．he was too young when he lived with them
    34． It can be inferred from the passage that the author wasD   
    A．a naturalist but not a scientist          
    B．more a good observer than a listener
    C．no more than a born naturalist         
    D．a scientist as well as a naturalist
    35． The author says he's a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks heA．
    A．lacks s ome of the qualities required of a scientist
    B．he couldn't do mental arithmetic
    C．he was brought up in a family of farmers
    D．he was not knowledgeable enough．
