Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. In the 1960s, medical researchers Thomas Holmes and richard Rahe developed a checklist of stressful events. They appreciated the tricky point that any major change can be stressful Negative events like serious illness of a family member were high on the list, but so were some positive life-changing events, like marriage. When you take the Holmes Rahe test you must remember that the score does not reflect how you deal with stress-it only shows how much you have to deal with. And we now know that the way you handle these events dramatically affects your chances of staying healthy. By the early 1970s, hundreds of similar studies had followed Holmes and rahe. and millions of Americans who work and live under stress worried over the reports. Somehow, the research got boiled down to a memorable message. Women's magazines ran headlines like Stress causes illness!If you want to stay physically and mentally healthy the articles said avoid stressful events

And millions of Americans who work and live under stress worried over the reports. Somehow, the research got boiled down to a memorable message. Women’s magazines ran headlines like “Stress causes illness!” If you want to stay physically and mentally healthy, the articles said, avoid stressful events

But such simplistic advice is impossible to follow. Even if stressful events are dangerous, many-like the death of a loved one-are impossible to avoid. Moreover any warning to avoid all stressful events is a prescription (A)for staying away from opportunities as well as trouble. since any change can be stressful, a person who wanted to be completely free of stress would never marry, have a child, take a new job or move. The notion that all stress makes you sick also ignores a lot of what we know about people. It assumes were all vulnerable(脆弱的) and passive in the face of adversity〔逆境) But what about human initiative and creativity? Many come through periods of stress with more physical and mental vigor than they had before. We also know that a long time without change or challenge can lead to boredom, and physical and metal strain. 21. The result of Holmes- Rahe s medical research tells us a)the way you handle major events may cause stress Bwhat should be done to avoid stress c)what kind of event would cause stress D)how to cope with sudden changes in life 22.

Why is such simplistic advice"(Line 1, Para. 3)impossible to follow? B)No prescription is effective in relieving stress C) People have to get married someday. D) You could be missing opportunities as well 25. According to the passage people who have experienced ups and downs may become A)nervous when faced with difficulties B physically and mentally strained c)more capable of coping with adversity D)indifferent toward what happens to them Passage TwO Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. Most episodes of absent-mindedness-forgetting where you left something or wondering why you just entered a room-are caused by a simple lack of attention, says schacter You re supposed to remember something, but you haven t encoded it deeply. Encoding, Schacter explains, is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impact on recalling it later. Failure to encode properly can create annoying situations.

Most episodes of absent-mindedness—forgetting where you left something or wondering why you just entered a room—are caused by a simple lack of attention, says Schacter. “You’re supposed to remember something, but you haven’t encoded it deeply.” Encoding, Schacter explains, is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impact on recalling it later. Failure to encode properly can create annoying situations. If you put your mobile phone in a pocket, for example, and don’t pay attention to what you

did because you're involved in a conversation, you' ll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in you wardrobe (]RlE)."Your memory itself isnt failing you," says Schacter. Rather you didn 't give your memory system the information it needed Lack of interest can also lead to absent-mindedness. "a man who can recite sports statistics from 30 years ago says Zelinski," may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox. Nomen have slightly better memories than men possibly because they pay more attention to their nt, and memory relies on just that. Visual cues can help prevent absent-mindedness, says Schacter. But be sure the cue is dear and available he cautions. If you want to remember to take a medication (4)with lunch put the pill bottle on the kitchen table-don't leave it in the medicine chest and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket. Another common episode of absent-mindedness: walking into a room and wondering why you're there. Most likely you were thinking about something else. Everyone does this from time to time, says Zelinski. The best thing to do is to retum to where you were before entering the room, and you'll likely remember 26. why does the author think that encoding properly is very important? A)It helps us understand our memory system better. BIt enables us to recall something form our memory c) It expands our memory capacity considerably. DIt slows down the process of losing our memory. 27. One possible reason why women have better memories than men is that A) they have a wider range of interests B) they are more reliant on the environment c)they have an unusual power of focusing their attention D) they are more interested in what's happening around ther 28. A note in the pocket can hardly serve as a reminder because A)it will easily get lost Bits not dear enough for you to read C)it's out of your sight D)it might get mixed up with other things 29. What do we learn from the last paragraph? A)If we focus our attention on one thing, we might forget another B)Memory depends to a certain extent on the environment. c) Repetition helps improve our memory. D)If we keep forgetting things, wed better return to where we were 30. What is the passage mainly about? A) The process of gradual memory loss. B)The causes of absent-mindedness.

The speed of sound in water is roughly one mile a second-slower than through land but faster than through air. What is most important, different layers of ocean water can act channels for sounds, focusing them in the same way a stethoscope(he*)does when it carries faint noises from a patients chest to a doctors ear. This focusing is the main reason that even relatively weak sounds in the ocean, especially low-frequency ones, can often travel thousands of miles 31.

Passage Four Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage. The fitness movement that began in the late 1960s and early 1970s centered around aerob ic exercise H#*). Millions of individuals became engaged in a variety of aerobic activities, and literally thousands of health spas developed around the country to capitalize (a)on this emerging interest in fitness, particularly aerobic dancing for females. A number of fitness spas existed prior to this aerobic fitness movement, even a national chain with spas in most major cities. However their focus was not on aerobics but rather on weight-training programs designed to develop muscular mass, strength, and enduran ce in their primarily male enthusiasts. These fitness spas did not seem to benefit financially form the aerobic fitness movement to better health, since medical opinion suggested that weight-training programs offered few if any health benefits. In recent years, however weight training has again become increasingly popular for males and for females. Many current programs focus not only on developing muscular strength and endurance but on aerobic fitness as well. Historically, most physical-fitness tests have usually induded measures of muscular strength and endurance, not for health-related reasons, but primarily because such fitness components have been related to performance in athletics. However, in recent years, evidence has shown that training programs designed primarily to improve muscular strength and endurance might also offer some health benefits as well. The American College of Sports Mediane now recommends that weight training be part of a total fitness program for healthy Americans. Increased participation in such training is one of the specific physical activity and fitness objectives of Healthy people 2000: National Health promotion and Disease Prevention Objectives 36.
