    A quarrel at home may result in your falling ill. Don’t laugh, it’s true. Family matters including living habits and even the way we speak have a big effect on our health, doctors say.
    Wang Xiaoyu, a Senior 2 girl from Xichang, Sichuan Province, fainted (晕倒) in class when she heard her classmates quarrel at the top of their voices. Quarrels between her parents also put the girl into a coma. It is because she is suffering from depression (抑郁症), caused by bad relations at home, doctors explained.
    “We don’t get sick or stay well by ourselves,” says Dr Robert Ferrer from the US. Ferrer shows that family forces may explain up to a quarter of health problems, in his recent research. The genes you get from your family may cause illness. If one of your parents has a heart attack, your risk of being affected may double. But effects on health are not only written in our DNA.
    Unrelated people who live under the same roof also get similar problems. Diet, lifestyle and environment affect our health, too. Ferrer’s research also found that if teenagers feel they are ignored or unimportant at home they are more likely to get sick.
    We may never fully understand all the effects that families have on our health. But just as individual (个别的) problems can have effects on others, a small improvement can have big benefits, Ferrer said.

    1. 1.

      Which of the following can best explain why Wang Xiaoyu fainted in class?

      1. A.
        Because her classmates often quarreled in class.
      2. B.
        Because her parents used to quarrel.
      3. C.
        Because of her depression caused by bad family relations.
      4. D.
        Because her classmates shouted loudly at her.
    2. 2.

      According to Dr Ferrer, which of the following statements is TRUE?

      1. A.
        We get sick or stay well by ourselves.
      2. B.
        Only the genes we get from our family have a big effect on our health.
      3. C.
        Our health has nothing to do with diet, lifestyle and environment.
      4. D.
        Teenagers who are ignored at home get sick more easily than those who are not.
    3. 3.

      The underlined word “coma” in Paragraph2 probably means ________.

      1. A.
        surprise
      2. B.
        faint
      3. C.
        tiredness
      4. D.
        sadness
    4. 4.

      The best title for this passage is ________.

      1. A.
        Family relations.
      2. B.
        The reasons why we get sick.
      3. C.
        Family---- another cause to health
      4. D.
        A research about health.

    Frank Woolworth was born in Rodman, New York., in 1852. His family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be farmer. He took a short business course, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.
    Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract people’s interest, but he soon learned something more important.

That is, if you want to make money by selling low-price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities directly form the factories. Once, for example, Woolworth went to Germany and placed an order for knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. In this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.
    By 1919, Woolworth had over 1000 stores in the US and Canada, and opened his first store in London. He made many millions and his name became famous throughout the world. He always run his business according to strict rules, of which the most important was: “ THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT.” （词数268）

    Have you ever intended to be fully absorbed in your work but found yourself distracted by e-mail, the Internet and other things throughout the day? According to the survey made by a famous university in the USA, most people have the experience.

    "People often lose their concentration when they are bored, of course, but also when they are engaged in challenging tasks," says Peter Bregman, the head of the survey. "They sometimes have a feeling to escape from what's difficult or boring, so they jump out," he says. The part of the brain devoted to attention is connected to the brain's emotional center. Any strong emotion —quarrels with colleagues, problems at home —can interrupt our attention. Studies over the last decade have shown that too much work to do at a time can easily lead to distraction.

    Refocusing is hard for many people. Robert Epstein suggests the following, "Stop and listen to some soft music for a few minutes. Find a good friend or a teacher and say out your matter on your mind. Go for a short walk or take a deep breath, where you breathe in deeply, count to five slowly, hold it and breathe out very slowly." This can "blow out all the tension and the unwanted in your mind to restore your focus."

    Take more control by structuring your time and becoming more aware of your behaviors. "Setting the phone alarm to go off every hour is my way of creating awareness," Mr. Bregman says. "You have to inform yourself that you've lost focus in order to do something about it." Starting the day with a to-do list is also important, such as when to eat, when to go to the gym or take a walk. But if it's overly ambitious, you will put yourself in a state of anxiety, which makes it hard for the brain to concentrate. "Choosing three or four things as your priority for the day allows your brain to settle down and focus," he says.

    1.According to the passage, which is NOT the reason why some people can be distracted from their work?

    A．They don't want to be devoted to their work.

    B．They are disturbed by the Internet and other things.

    C．They can't find interest in their work.

    D．They feel their work is too hard for them.

    2.Which incident might NOT interrupt your attention?

    A．You were scolded by your teacher.

    B．You had words with your good friend.

    C．You went to school at six as usual.

    D．Your mother and father had a quarrel.

    3.What's the meaning of the underlined word "restore" in the passage?

    A．recover

    B．reform

    C．release

    D．react

    4.According to Robert Epstein, how can we refocus on what we should do?

    A．Listen to rock music for some time.

    B．Turn to your good friends or teachers for help.

    C．Run around the playground for some time.

    D．Take a breath from time to time.

    My First Long Kun

    Two weeks ago, I had a quarrel with my husband. After he had driven off in anger, I realized that I wasn’t going to feel any better just sitting there. Feeling abandoned and guilty, I put on my gym shoes to get some fresh air.

       Our driveway has a slope(斜坡) that is easier just to jog down if you are lazy, taking advantage of gravity. Instead of stopping at the end of the slope, I decided t see if I could just jog to the end of the street. I had tried a few months ago and failed miserably. Since that first attempt I had been jogging regularly and was significantly fitter, but still very lazy. However this time around I managed to reach the stop sign with ease and I figured I would go a little further.

      After about one kilometer, however, I noticed that my upper body was tense. To make the movement easier I had to relax my body, and tried to take deep breaths of air.

      I kept giving myself the excuse to stop. No one would be disappointed. No one would even know. But I didn’t stop. I wanted to keep going harder, better, stronger. To my great surprise, I ran 4.9 km in 31 minutes. When I got back, I had tears in my eyes. I did something I thought I could never do.

    It was the first long run of my life. Since I have improved my stride (步幅) and time, after every run I feel fitter, happier and motivated to keep progressing. I love the runner’s high, I normally jog because I want look good. I want to run because it makes me feel good.
