17.Imagine there is a bank that puts 86,400dollars in your account each morning.It carries over no balance from day to day.Every evening the bank writes off(注销) the balance that you failed to use during the day.What would you do?Take out every cent,of course!
    Each of us has such a bank.Its name is TIME.Every morning,it puts in 86,400dollars seconds.Every evening it writes off,as it is lost.There is no balance or overdraft.If you fail to use the day's savings,the lost is yours.There is no going back.There is no taking from"tomorrow".You must make good use of it so as to get more in health,happiness and success!
    The clock is running.Make the most of today.To realize the value of ONE YEAR,ask a student who failed a grade; To realize the value of ONE MONTH,ask a mother who gave birth to a premature(早产) baby; To realize the value of ONE WEEK,ask the editor of a weekly newspaper; To realize the value of ONE HOUR,ask the lovers who are waiting to meet; To realize the value of ONE MINUTE,ask a person who missed the train; To realize the value of ONE SECOND,ask a person who just avoided an accident.
    Make good use of every moment that you have.Remember that time waits for no one.Yesterday is history.Tomorrow is a mystery.Today is a gift.That's why it's called"The Present".

8.Perfume(香水)-A Promise in a Bottle
"Perfume,"says expert perfumer Sophia Grojsman,"is a promise in a bottle."That promise might be reflected in a perfume's name:Joy,Pleasures,or Beautiful,for example.Millions of dollars are spent on the marketing of a perfume,trying to get customers to connect attraction or attitude to a fragrance.
Even without the marketing,fragrance has power over our thoughts and feelings.Some scientists insist that memory and smell are especially closely linked.Certain aromas(气味)have the power to call up deep memories.Perfume makers are aware of this and use aromas that can touch us deeply.
The Power of Aromas
Of every ten new perfumes put on the market,perhaps only one will succeed.It's risky to try,as a company introducing a new fragrance can easily run through a budget of 20million dollars.Profits(利润),however,can be very high.One successful fragrance,CK One from designer Calvin Klein,made 250million dollars in its first year.
In the perfume world,the most basic and important quality is the material with its own special aroma.Some are natural,coming from flowers,plants,or wood,for example.Others are synthetic materials,that is,the materials which are not natural but made with the help of science.According to expert perfumer Harry Fremont,a good fragrance"is a balance between naturals and synthetics".
Image(形象)and Marketing
Sephora is France's leading perfume store.In a store of shining stone,metal,and glass,famous perfumes are shown and guarded like works of art in the nearby Louvre Museum.Salespeople are dressed in black,and each type of perfume is sold in a particularly shaped bottle.In perfume sales,the importance is on presentation at least as much as on the product.
If you're confused about which perfume to buy,perfumer Annie Buzantian offers her advice:you really can't get an idea whether a perfume works or not until you wear it."It's like the difference between a dress on the hanger on the hanger and a dress on your body,"says Buzantian."Your first impression is often the right one."

57.What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A
A.The name is especially important for a perfume.
B.Too much money is wasted on the perfume market.
C.Perfume provides joy,pleasure and beauty to customers.
D.The perfume industry makes promises it can never keep.
58.According to Harry Fremont,a good fragrance is a balance betweenB.
A.fresh flowers and new plants
B.naturals and man-made materials
C.naturals and people's favorite
D.wood and materials with special smell
59.What is probably the main reason that Sephora's perfumes are so well guarded?A
A.It is the way to impress customers.
B.Each bottle is worth a lot of money.
C.French stores are normally well guarded.
D.The store has been attacked for many times.

9.For centuries,the body's blood has been linked closely with the emotions.People who show no human emotions or feelings,are said to be cold-blooded killer.For example,the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer.He seems to kill for no reason,and no emotion,as if taking someone's life as nothing.
Cold can affect other parts of the body.The expression"get cold feet"has nothing to do with cold or your feet.The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do.For example,you agree to be president of an organization.But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned (辞职),and all the work of the organization will be your responsibility.You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.
The expression"give someone the cold shoulder"probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone,instead of speaking to him face to face.You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you.Or,to someone who has lied about you to others.
A cold fish is not a fish.It is a person.But it is a person who is unfriendly,unemotional and shows no love or warmth.A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone.Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted.Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy(同情).Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who,without feelings,broke the hearts of their lovers.
Out in the cold means not getting something that everybody else got.A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise---he was left out in the cold.And it is not a pleasant place to be.

67.There areA expressions related to cold that are mentioned in the passage.
A.6   B.4    C.3     D.7
68.When you refuse to speak to a man and treat him in a distant way,you may express by"C".
A.I think he is a cold fish
B.I think he is a cold-blooded man
C.I give him the cold shoulder
D.I'm likely to get cold feet
69.We can use the expression"C"to describe a man who hurts his lover without mercy.
A.cold-blooded    B.cold shoulder   C.cold-hearted    D.cold feet
70.The topic of this passage is aboutB.
A.the relationship between cold and our body
B.some expressions connected with cold
C.some expressions about friendship
D.how cold weather comes into being.

6.Scientists can learn about man by studying animals,such as mice,rats and monkeys.The scientists in a laboratory are experimenting on mice and they are studying the relationship between diet and health.
In this experiment,the scientists are studying the relationship between the amount of food the mice can eat and their health.The mice are in three groups.All these groups are receiving the same healthy diet.But the amount of food that each group is receiving is different.The first group is eating one cup of food each day,the second two cups,and the third three cups.

7.People who show confidence really seem to have it made.They seize more rewarding careers,keep good relationships,and just seem to do everything with more styles than the rest of us.
So what is the secret?There isn't one.Self-confidence is a skill and habit that anyone can learn to develop.And although people who are raised in an encouraging environment with confident role models have a hard start in self-confidence development,we all can learn to become more confident at any age.
Try these simple tips for practising and increasing your self-confidence levels:
Dare to fail.Anybody who's out there bravely performing is going to fail repeatedly.If you are not failing,you are not trying.So don't take failure too hard or too personally.Just learn to deal with it and use its lessons to keep improving.
When in doubt,pretend you know what you are doing.Because,if you are confident of your abilities,by the time you have done it,you will be experienced.
Dress for success.You don't have to be beautiful to be confident.Make the most of your own unique physical characters and weaken your disadvantages.
Listen to yourself.You are the only person who knows what's right for you.Don't put others'opinions above your own inner voice.
Build a confident vocabulary.Stop putting yourself down and give up continually blaming your tiny weaknesses.Learn to show up your strong points and the world will learn to see and celebrate them with you.
Pass on the praise.Praise others for their virtues and strengths.This practice will not decrease your confidence,but help increase it.

39.The passage is written mainlyD.
A.to explain the definition of self-confidence
B.to explain the secret of self-confidence
C.to tell people how important self-confidence is
D.to tell people how to build self-confidence
40.The main idea of the sixth paragraph isC.
A.to be confident means to have no disadvantages
B.taking full advantage of your physical characters will help you be confident
C.your unique characters will help you be confident and be successful
D.to be confident means to be beautiful
41.All the following are tips to increase your self-confidence level EXCEPTC.
A.not to be afraid of failure             B.dress yourself properly
C.pretend to know everything              D.make your advantages more obvious
42.B will weaken your self-confidence.
A.Praising others for their strong points
B.Always following others'advice to do things
C.Giving up blaming your weaknesses
D.Believing in yourself.
