    For many years, scientists couldn't figure out how atoms and molecules on the Earth combined to make living things. Plants, fish, dinosaurs, and people are made of atoms and molecules, but they are put together in a more complicated way than the molecules in the primitive ocean. What's more, living things have energy and can reproduce, while the chemicals on the Earth 4 billion years ago were lifeless.
    　　After years of study, scientists figured out that living things, including human bodies, are basically made of amino acids and nucleotide bases. These are molecules with millions of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms. How could such complicated molecules have been formed in the primitive soup? Scientists were stumped.
    　　Then, in 1953, two scientists named Harold Urey and Stanley L. Miller did a very simple experiment to find out what had happened on the Primitive Earth. They set up some tubes and bottles in a closed loop, and put in some of the same gases that were present in the atmosphere 4 billion years ago: water vapor, ammonia, carbon dioxide, methane, and hydrogen.
    　　Then they shot an electric spark through the gases to simulate bolts of lightning on the ancient Earth, circulated the gases through some water, sent them back for more sparks, and so on. After seven days, the water that the gases had been bubbling through had turned brown. Some new chemicals were dissolved in it. When Miller and Urey analyzed the liquid, they found that it contained amino acids-the very kind of molecules found in all living things.
    61. When did scientists come to realize how the atoms and molecules on the Earth combined to make living thing?
    　　A. 4 billion years ago. B.1953.　C. After seven days.D. Many years later.
    62. Scientists figured out that human bodies are basically made of .
    A.amino acids
    B.molecules
    C. hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen and oxygen atoms
    D. water vapor, ammonia, carbon dioxide, methane and hydrogen

    A. find out what had happened on the Earth 4 billion years ago
    　　 B.simulate bolts of lightning on the ancient Earth
    　　 C. dissolve some new chemicals
    　　D.analyze a liquid
    64. At the end of the last paragraph, the underlined word "it" refers to .
    A. a closed loop   B. an electric spark   C.water   D. the liquid
    65. According to the writer, living things on the Earth include .
    　A. atoms and molecules                     B.chemicals　
    C. plants, fish, dinosaurs and human beings     D.the primitive soup

    Our spiritual intelligence quotient，or SQ，helps us understand ourselves，and live fuller，
    happier lives．
    While we’re all born with SQ，most of us don’t even realize that we have it．Fortunately，you don't have to sign up for classes to learn how to improve your SQ．Here are some simple steps that can lead you to this new level of understanding．
    Sit Quietly．The process of developing spiritual intelligence begins with solitude（独处）and
    silence．To tune in to your spirit，you have to turn down the volume in your busy，noisy，complicated life and force yourself to do nothing at all．Start small by creating islands for silence in
    your day．In the car，instead of reading or doing something else，use the time to think．At work，
    shut the door to our office between meetings，take a few breaths and let them out very，very slowly．Enjoy the stillness in your home after the kids are finally in bed．
    Step Outside．For many people，nature sets their spirit free．Go outside to watch a beautiful
    sunset．If you are walking with your dog，take the time to admire flowers in bloom；follow the flight of birds；watch clouds float overhead．
    Ask Questions of Yourself．Ask open-ended questions，such as “What am I feeling？” “What are my choices？”or “Where am I heading？” But don’t expect an answer to arrive through some
    supernatural form or e-mail．“Rarely do I get an immediate answer to my question，”says Reverend  Joan Carter，a Presbyterian（长老会的）minister in Sausalito，California．“But later that day I suddenly find myself thinking about a problem in a perspective（视角）I never considered before．”
    Trust Your Spirit．While most of us rely on gut feeling（本能的反应）to realize danger，spiritual intelligence pushes us，not away from，but towards some action that will lead to a greater good．
    68．The passage is mainly about_________．
    A．what your SQ is and in what way it can benefit your life
    B．what your SQ is and in what way it can be improved
    C．the relationship between your SQ and your life
    D．advantages and disadvantages of SQ
    69．The underlined phrase “tune in to your spirit” in the third paragraph probably means______．
    A．get your spirit relaxed    B．keep up your spirit
    C．keep seated quietly D．change your spirit
    70．The author mentions the example of Reverend Joan Carter to show that_________．
    A．there are no immediate answers to your questions
    B．e-mails can’t keep working out a problem
    C．the more questions you ask，the better answers you’ll get
    D．changing your way of thinking might help you solve a problem
    71．From the passage，we can know that the most important thing to improve your SQ is________．
    A．a peaceful mind             B．deep thought
    C．spare time and hobbies   D．good spirits

    There is an old saying：No one thinks he’s a bad driver. Here’s an updated 21st century version: No one thinks he sends annoying (令人烦恼的) e-mails.
    But, plenty of us do.
    A Princeton University research found that 22 per cent of Americans say e-mail has added to their work pressures and caused misunderstandings. Here’s a guide on e-mail etiquette (礼节) to help you avoid being annoying.
    Experts say there are three types of e-mails with different rules-close friends, office and public e-mails.
    The close friends e-mail
    You can send your lover, your closest friends and your siblings (brothers and sisters) anything, from jokes to “you got to see this!”. But bear in mind that not everyone shares your sense of humour and you may expose them to viruses.
    The office e-mail
    Don’t add to people’s workload. Keep e-mails short and to the point.
    ◆Make the subject line factual and brief.
    ◆Write in clear, concise (简练的) sentences.
    ◆Provide your name and phone number at the end.
    The public e-mail
    Occasionally we have to send an e-mail to a group of people. If possible, write your public e-mails with a who, what, when, where structure. For example:
    Who: All members of the soccer team
    What: Team photo
    When: Saturday, March 25, at noon
    Where: Playing field 2.
    Finally, before you hit “Send”, check the following:
    ◆Is the e-mail a “flame”? Never send an e-mail in anger, It could stay around forever and haunt (萦绕心头) your professional and personal life.
    ◆Check the “To” field. Is this really who you want to send the message to?
    ◆Spell-check the message. Does it have an error that can affect you badly?
    68. The writer may want to tell the reader that _____.
    A. mails online are often sent to wrong places
    B. different e-mails should be written in different ways
    C. sending office e-mails is sure to add to people’s workload
    D. the public e-mail is usually sent to a large number of people
    69. According to the writer, _____.
    A. e-mails with some misspellings may hurt the receiver
    B. before sending an e-mail, the sender should ask someone to check it
    C. jokes sent to a close friend online sometimes may be harmful
    D. about 80％ of Americans like sending and receiving e-mails
    70. If an e-mail is a “flame”, the sender of it must be very _____ at the moment.
    A. angry                         B. excited              C. worried                     D. disappointed

    When it comes to parenting, it can be hard to know which issues are important and which ones are not. According to parenting expert Anne Murphy, a family dinner matters. “Having a family dinner doesn’t only mean hours of sharing various kinds of food,” she said. “It means getting together as long as you can —even if it’s just 15 minutes for pizza. Or make it breakfast or lunch—whatever you can do.
    Never waste your valuable time on TV. Keep the conversation joyful—Murphy thinks it makes a difference. Studies have shown that teenagers whose families eat together are less likely to abuse drugs. They also have better grades and—perhaps most importantly—better relationships with their parents. It brings more benefit to children than many after-school activities, she added.
    Homework has become a hot issue recently. According to a study, the amount of time kids spend on homework has increased by 51 percent since 1981.
    “The point of homework is to make students continue to learn after school hour,” Murphy said. “However, giving too much homework runs the risk of turning kids off school and even worse—turning them off learning in all forms. They will turn to other things, such as computer games, some of which are aggressive, or drinking for fun. Therefore, some experts came up with an idea, that is, kindergarteners and first-graders get 10 minutes of homework. Second-graders get 20 minutes, and so on.”
    Murphy offered tips to parents who think their children are getting too much homework. “Talk to other parents to see if they also think so, and then talk to the teacher,” she said. “Have a discussion about it, and let the teacher know that you want to work together on a solution.”
    60. According to Anne Murphy, ___________.
    A. parents should tell children what matters during dinner time
    B. parents should save time and not cook for children
    C. it’s important for the family to have a good talk during dinner time
    D. it’s important for the family to discuss sharing together
    61. Which of the following is the benefit of families eating together?
    a. Children are more likely to avoid drugs.
    b. Children may have better grades.
    c. Children may have a close relationship with their parents.
    d. It can save children’s time and prevent them from watching TV.
    e. It encourages children to have more after-school activities.
    A. a, b, c               B. c, d, e                      C. a, c, e                      D. b, c, e
    62. What do we know about homework from the passage?
    A. The time spent on homework shouldn’t be over 10 minutes.
    B. Too much homework may make students lose interest in study.
    C. Homework does not help children continue learning after school.
    D. Parents should decide the amount of homework for their children.
    63. From the passage, we can learn that___________.
    A. children’s time spent on after-school activities is being reduced
    B. computer games are making children increasingly aggressive
    C. it is unnecessary for young children to do homework

    D. Parents say no to too much homework.

    True love and kindness is needed in this world. It comes from appreciating the object, and rejoicing in the object, wanting the object to be happy and well, but holding it lightly, not tightly. And this goes for possessions too. You are in an extremely materialistic society in which the possession of more and bigger and better is held up as the total criteria(标准) for being happy.
    What we own is not the problem; it’s our attitude towards our possessions. If we have something and we enjoy it, that’s fine. If we lose it, then that’s OK. But if we lose it and we are very attached to it in our heart, then that’s not fine. It doesn’t matter what the object is, because it’s not the object which is the problem. The problem is our own inner grasping mind that keeps us bound to the wheel, and keeps us suffering. If our mind was open and could just let thing flow naturally, there would be no pain. Do you understand? We need our everyday life to work on this, to really begin to see the greed of attachment in the mind and gradually begin to lessen and lessen it.
    There is a famous story of a coconut, which is said to be used in India to catch monkeys. People take a coconut and make a little hole just big enough for a monkey to put its paw through. And inside the coconut, which is nailed to a tree, they have put something sweet. So the monkey comes along, sees the coconut, smells something nice inside, and he puts his hand in. he catches hold of the sweet inside, so now he has a fist. But the hole is too small for the fist to get out. When the hunters come back, the monkey is caught. But of course, all the monkey has to do is let go. Nobody’s holding the monkey except the monkey’s grasping greedy mind. Nobody is holding us on the wheel; we are clinging to it ourselves. There are no chains.
    54. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
    A. Clinging Causes the Pain                       B. Don’t Learn from the Monkey
    C. Giving Up is Holding                               D. Possessions are Pains
    55. According to the first paragraph, which of the following statements is true?
    A. The world now is lacking in true love.
    B. Owning more means being happier in today’s society.
    C. Today’s society is very realistic.                    
    D. The society needs better criteria.
    56. According to the passage, the monkey is caught because___________      .
    A. the hunter is cleverer than the monkey   
    B. the monkey wants to eat the sweet
    C. the hole is too small for the monkey’s fist
    D. the monkey doesn’t know giving up
    57. Why did the author tell the story of the monkey?
    A. Because he liked monkeys very much.
    B. Because the story is very interesting.
    C. Because he wants to explain the idea further.
    D. Because he wants to make the passage attractive.
