    "That squirrel worked very hard to gather his winter（50）Aof food，"he said．"Now that all of his pecans are gone，don't you think that little squirrel will（51）C  the cold winter？"

    "I know，"Grandpa said．"But a good man should never take（52）Dof someone else's hard work．"
    Suddenly I felt a bit（53）A．The image of the starving squirrel wouldn't（54）Bmy mind There was only one thing I could do．I carried the basket back to the tree and poured all the nuts into the hole．
    I didn't eat any pecans that night，but I had something much more filling（55）Dof knowing I had done just the right thing．

    16．To live a long life，we've been told to eat well，exercise and manage stress．Now an eight-decade study indicates that is only part of the story．Health scientists Friedman explains some secrets to longevity（长寿） in the Longevity Project．
    Friedman drew upon the work of Stanford University psychologist Lewis Terman，who began the study in 1921．Terman selected about 1，500 of the brightest boys and girls that he could find and tracked them throughout their lives．He died in 1956，but the project was carried on by others．Friedman took over the work in 1990 and used the data gathered for decades to better understand health and longevity．
    "Genetic factors offer part of the explanation for why about one third of the people are more exposed to diseases and live shorter lives，"says Friedman．"But there's much more to that．"
    Take character for example．Cheerful and optimistic children are actually less likely to live long lives．"The most cheerful and optimistic kids grew up to take more risks，"explains Friedman．"They tended to be smokers or heavier drinkers，and their hobbies were riskier．"
    Often，with responsibility come stress．But some stress is not necessarily a bad thing，says Friedman．Actually，when the participants found meaning in their stressful jobs，they were committed to them and stress didn't hurt them．They thrived（茁壮成长） in spite of---or perhaps with the aid of---it．
    Friedman also found that the conventional wisdom about fitness isn't quite right．If we try too hard to push ourselves into exercise，it can fail．Physical activity is important，they found，but it's more about doing what you love than sticking filmly to a certain fitness program．
    And for adults who have fallen into long-sitting lifestyles，it's not too late．"if you can pick up an activity that you like---you don't have to go to the gym every morning---that really has a big impact on the rest of your life，"says Friedman．
    33．Which of the following is NOT true about the Longevity Project？A
    A．It has lasted for eight decades．
    B．It was started by Terman in 1921．
    C．It paused for a while after Terman's death．
    D．About 1，500 boys and girls took part in the study．
    34．If you want to join a fitness program，you'd betterD
    A．stick firmly to it
    B．try to exercise as hard as you can
    C．ask other people to do it with you
    D．choose whatever you really enjoy
    35．Accoding to Friedman，D．
    A．cheerful and optimistic children tend to live longer
    B．taking up stressful jobs is always bad for people's longevity
    C．it's impossible for adults with long-sitting lifestyles to live longer
    D．genetic factors are not the only reason for people's getting diseases．

    13．For most people，shopping is still a matter of wandering down the street or loading a cart in a shopping mall．Soon，that will change．Electronic commerce （trade） is growing fast and will soon bring people more choices．There will，however，be a cost：protecting the consumer from being cheated will be harder．Many governments therefore want to apply street regulations to the electronic world．But politicians would be wiser to see cyberspace as a basis or a new era of corporate self-regulation．
    Consumers in rich countries have grown used to the idea that the government takes responsibility for everything from the stability of the banks to the safety of the drugs or their rights to refund when goods are faulty．But governments cannot enforce national laws on businesses whose only presence is on the screen．Even in a country where a clear rght to compensation exists，the on-line customer in Tokyo，say，can hardly go to New York to get a refund （退款） for a clothes purchase．
    One answer is for government to cooperate more：to recognize each other's rules．But that requires years of work and volumes of detailed rules．And plenty of countries have rules too fanciful （稀有的） for sober countries to accept．There is，however，another choice．Let the electronic businesses do the regulation themselves．They do，after all，have a self-interest in doing so．
    In electronic commerce，a reputation for honest dealing will be a valuable competitive asset．Governments，too，may compete to be trusted．For instance，customers ordering medicines on-line may prefer to buy from the United States because they trust the rigorous screening of the Food and Drug Administration； or they may decide that the FDA's  rules are too strict，and buy from Switzerland instea．
    Customers will still need to use their judgment，but precisely because the technology is new，electronic shoppers are likely for a while to be a lot more cautious than customers of the normal sort．And the new technology will also make it easier for them to complain when a company lets them down．In this way，at least，the advent（出现） of cyberspace may argue for fewer consumer protection laws，not more．
    32．In case an electronic shopper bought faulty goods from a foreign country，what could he do？D
    A．Refuse to pay for the purchase．
    B．Go to the seller and ask for a refund．
    C．Appeal to consumer protection law．
    D．Complain about it on the Internet．
    33．In the author's view，businesses would place a high emphasis on honest dealing because in the electronic worldC．
    A．international cooperation would be much more frequent
    B．consumers could easily seek government protection
    C．a good reputation is a great advantage in competition
    D．it would be easy for consumers to complain
    34．We can infer from the passage that in licensing new drugs the FDA in the United States isB．
    A．very quick   
     B．very cautious     
    C．very slow    
    D．rather careless
    35．According to the author，what will be the best policy for electronic commerce？A
    A．Self-regulation by the business．
    B．Strict Consumer protection laws．
    C．Close international cooperation．
    D．Government protection．

    1．The breaking news of Mo Yan's Nobel Prize in Literature on Thursday evening soon aroused public curiosity of the 57yearold Chinese writer：Why was it him that was favored by the Swedish Academy？
    Born in 1955into a rural family，Mo dropped out of school and became a farmer when he was a teenager．He joined the military and devoted himself to writing after the Cultural Revolution （1966-1976）．
    Less than half an hour after the announcement，Mo's works turned to soldout status at China's major online book sellers．One lucky buyer wrote in an online comment："Rushed to purchase，but to my shame，I have not read any of his novels．"
    Although Mo was entitled one of the top domestic literature awards before the Nobel Prize，he is not the most popular novelist in China，in either the book market or in reputation．
    Mo's novel"Big Breasts & Wide Hips，"translated by Howard Goldblatt，tells a story of a mother who struggled and suffered hardship and intertwined fates with Chinese people in the 20th century．His more recent work"Frog"more directly criticized China's onechild family policy，which helped control the country's population explosion but also brought tragedies to rural residents in the past 60years．
    "I think the reason why I could win the prize is because my works present lives with unique Chinese characteristics，and they also tell stories from a viewpoint of common human beings，which is above differences of nations and races，"Mo said on Thursday evening to Chinese journalists．Mo also said many folk arts originated from his hometown，such as clay sculpture，paper cuts，traditional new yearpaintings，have inspired and influenced his novels．
    With more Chinese writers like Mo，the world could learn a more real China．Perhaps，this is another reason for the Swedish Academy's choice．

    52．What can we conclude from the second paragraph？A
    A．Mo's life experiences．
    B．Mo's family life．
    C．Mo devoted himself to writing．
    D．Mo had a gift for writing．
    53．What can we infer from the passage？C
    A．Mo didn't got any national awards before he won the Nobel Prize．
    B．Mo was the top novelist in China before he won the Nobel Prize．
    C．Mo's novels have attracted many people to read．
    D．Mo's novels are all based on his daily life．
    54．Which of the following have no effect on Mo's novels according to the passage？D
    A．Clay sculpture．   B．Paper cuts．
    C．Folk arts．        D．Beijing opera．
    55．According to the passage，we know thatD．
    A．Big Breasts & Wide Hips'leading role is one happy mother
    B．Big Breasts & Wide Hips criticized China's onechild family policy
    C．Frog came out earlier than Big Breasts & Wide Hips
    D．Frog shows benefit as well as shortcoming of one China's policy．
