12.All of us have read thrilling stories in which the hero had only a limited and specified time to live.Sometimes it was as long as a year; sometimes as short as twenty-four hours,but always we were interested in discovering just how the doomed man chose to spend his last days or his last hours.
Such stories set up thinking,wondering what we should do under similar circumstances.What happiness should we find in reviewing the past,what regrets?
Sometimes,I have thought it would be an excellent rule to live each day as if we should die tomorrow.Such an attitude would emphasize sharply the values of life.We should live each day with a gentleness,a vigor,and a keenness of appreciation which are often lost when time stretches before us in the constant repetition of more days and months and years to come.
Most of us take life for granted.We know that one day we must die,but usually we picture that day as far in the future,when we are in pleasant health,death is all but unimaginable.We seldom think of it.The days stretch out in an endless prospect.So we go about our little task,hardly aware of our listless attitude towards life.
The same attitude,I am afraid,falls on the use of our abilities and senses.Only the deaf appreciate hearing,only the blind realize the various blessings that lie in sight.Particularly does this observation apply to those who have lost sight and hearing in adult life.But those who have never suffered loss of sight and hearing seldom make the fullest use of these blessed abilities.Their eyes and ears take in all sights and sound hazily,without concentration,and with little appreciation.Seldom do people realize how good it is being in good health until they have fallen ill.It is the same old story of not being grateful without missing.

58.When reading the thrilling stories,we usuallyA.
A.have curiosity about the hero's limited life
B.show great interest in our own lives
C.find many regrets in reviewing the past
D.have mercy on the doomed man
59.From the passage,we can learn thatC.
A.the author thinks it would be excellent to live if he should die the next day
B.the disabled are anxious to regain their abilities and senses
C.each of us should treasure what we have possessed today
D.many of us are able to make full use of our time
60.The underlined word"hazily"in the last paragraph probably meansB.
A.happily
B.unclearly 
C.freely 
D.enthusiastically
61.The best title for this passage may probably beA.
A.Not Being Grateful without Missing 
B.Giving a Hand to the Disabled
C.Making Use of Abilities and Senses 
D.Learning from Thrilling Stories.

20.Six years ago,a Miami woman walking through the hall of an office building casually noticed two men standing together.Several minutes after her leaving,the men murdered a person working in the building.Police investigators determined that the woman was the only witness who had seen the two suspects,and could possibly describe them.In an interview with police,her memory of the men proved disappointingly unclear.
Several days later,psychologist Ronald P.Fisher was brought in to get a more complete description from the woman.Fisher's interview produced a breakthrough (突破)-the woman reported a clear picture of one of the suspects.She then recalled several details about his appearances.This information gave police important leads that enabled them to arrest the suspects and close the case.
Police investigators found the help from Fisher because of his rich knowledge in conducting the so-called cognitive (认知的) interview,a kind of memory-rebuilding process.In its original form,the cognitive interview focuses on guiding witnesses through four general recalling techniques:thinking about physical surroundings and personal feelings that existed at the time of past events,reporting everything that comes to mind about those events no matter how broken or unconnected,retelling events in kinds of time orders,beginning to end,end to beginning,forward or backward,and accepting different views while recalling events.
Usually,an interviewer begins the cognitive approach by encouraging the witness to take an active role in recalling information rather than giving answers only to someone else's questions.The witness first describes what happened in his or her own words,with no interviewer interruptions.The interviewer then goes further with specific techniques,such as having the witness tell the details of what happened from different aspects.
Experiments with police detectives trained in this demanding interview method find that they get nearly 50% more information from witnesses than before training,while error rates remain about the same.
67.What is the purpose of this passage?D
A.To give an description of a murder case in an office.
B.To explain why Fisher was invited to a police interview.
C.To describe how cognitive method helps the woman to recall.
D.To give the readers an idea of cognitive interview.
68.The cognitive interview helped the woman to recall more byC.
A.strengthening her memory           
B.giving her encouragement
C.rebuilding her memory              
D.giving her more time
69.It can be inferred from the passage that in a cognitive interview,the interviewer mainly plays aArole.
A.directing         
B.questioning   
C.disappointing      
D.interrupting
70.What is the key point of the cognitive interview?B
A.The interviewer should interrupt the witness from time to time.
B.The witness is encouraged to take an active role in recalling information.
C.The interview should take place outside the police station.
D.The witness should recall details at the scene of the event.

1.There once was a forest filled with happy animals.One day a raccoon (浣熊) found some socks left behind by picnickers,and (61)decided (decide) to wear them.They fitted so well,and felt so (62)comfortable (comfort),that he kept them on.He spent his days  (63)walking (walk) through the forest in his new socks.
Other animals became envious of the raccoon's new look and followed his trend.First it was squirrels in (64)shirts (shirt),then rabbits(65)with hats on,and finally birds wearing underpants!
Doctor Bear,the forest physician,disapproved and tried to warn the clothes-wearers.But no one listened.Instead,they urged him to follow the (66)latest (late) trend too.
Soon,the problems started.The squirrel caught his shirt on a branch and crashed to the ground.The rabbit tried entering his hole while wearing his hat and got stuck.Even the raccoon,thanks to his (67)brightly (bright) coloured socks,slipped into the river and almost died.
When the (68)injured (injure) animals came to see Doctor Bear,he told them,"Your clothes are killing you.You don't need (69)them."
Those (70)who listened to the doctor's advice finally understood they didn't need clothes.They'd only started wearing clothes to make others envy them.
