His greatest achievement, however, was when Simon &. Schuster published How to Win Friends and Influence People. The book was a bestseller from 1936. By the time of Carnegie's death, the book had sold five million copies in 31 languages, and there had been 450,000 graduates of his Dale Carnegie Institute.‎ Carnegie died at his home in New York in 1955.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎28.What do you think of Dale Carnegie's childhood?‎ ‎ A.

Teaching people speaking skills.‎ ‎ D. Advising people to live happily.‎ ‎30. Why did Dale Carnegie change his last name?‎ ‎ A. To get more help and support.‎ ‎ B. To replace Andrew Carnegie.‎ ‎ C. To avoid misunderstanding.‎ ‎ D. To become more famous. ‎ ‎31. Which of the following is Dale Carnegie's most successful work?‎ ‎ A. Lincoln the Unknown.‎ ‎ B. How to Win Friends and Influence People.‎ ‎ C. How to Stop Worrying and Start Living. ‎ ‎ D. Public Speaking and Influencing Men in Business.‎ ‎ ‎ D Developing healthy eating habits starts from childhood, therefore it is important for parents to teach and provide children with a healthy diet. DPHSS administrator of the Bureau of Nutrition Services, Charlie Morris told KUAM News, “A healthy diet for a child consists of a lot of fruits and vegetables in the diet limiting the amount of simple sugars in the diet and high fat food and highly processed(加工的) food.”‎ This means staying away as much as possible from food such as chips, cookies, candies and sugary drinks, as all children need to have meals which involve a well-balanced diet. Community nutritionist(营养学家) Thelma Romoso said, “The fruit, the vegetable, the grain, the protein, and also the milk, the diary product, so for the fruits it's easy for a mother to go into the two plus three concept of fruits and vegetables or five a day.”‎ This concept means that there are at least two servings of fruits a day, three servings of vegetables a day which can be served for lunch and dinner. As for protein parents can make a variety of dishes from chicken, beef, fish or even dried beans to make sure the child gets three servings a day.‎ Morris said that the child's hunger level controls how much is eaten and the parent controls what and when the meal is offered, saying, “Mom needs to ensure that the food offered is good food for the child to eat and throughout the day depending on how active they are, snacks(零食) are not a bad thing, so the mom should offer good kinds of snacks.”‎ When it comes to preparing your child's lunch and snacks for school, make sure to keep in mind that the food you provide should not only be a source of energy but also be nutritionally beneficial such as fresh fruits, and whole grain bread. But parents must be sure to remember that a good nutritional diet must be balanced with physical activity, namely it is important that children get outside and run around and play and get activity in addition to eating a good diet.‎ ‎32.What does the author intend to tell us in the text?‎ A.Fruits and vegetables are good for your child.‎ B.Choose healthy food and snacks for your child.‎ C. Take steps to provide a good lunch for your child.‎ D. Make various and delicious dishes for your child.‎ ‎33. According to Charlie Morris we can know that_________.‎ A. highly processed food should be reduced in daily life B. mothers should prepare delicious food by themselves C. sugars and high fat exist in few kinds of food D. active children prefer more and more snacks ‎34. Which is NOT true when preparing your child’s food for school?‎ A. The food must provide energy as well as nutrition.‎ B. Running and playing when eating is beneficial.‎ C. Physical exercise is as important as a good diet D. Fruits and whole grain foods should be included.‎ ‎35. It can be inferred from the text that _________.‎ A. Fresh fruits are often ignored by children B. A good nutritional diet may cost too much C. Parents play an important role in children's diet D. Choosing healthy food is linked with income 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ ‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中的两项为多途选项。‎ How to Become a Top Student Successful students use different techniques(技巧)to study，which brings them more success.  36  Here are the four techniques almost all topperforming students use.‎ They are regular.Almost all successful students study regularly，because they know “what you give is what you get”．If you put in regular hours of studying，then you will learn more and get better grades.  37  This will help you to study regularly.‎ They have clear goals.All topperforming students have definite，specific goals.  38  They motivate(激发)you and drive you to study more.But make sure that you do not get carried away.Set realistic goals which can challenge(挑战)you，but do not seem impossible or too difficult to achieve.‎ They study without pressure(压力)．Successful students study a lot.But they study without putting strain on themselves.Most students make the mistake of studying too hard or studying continuously for a long time. 39  Studying should be done in a balanced manner.Take a break for a few minutes，after studying for 30 or 45 minutes.Relax，walk around your room or house，or drink some water and return to studying.Such short breaks will refresh your brain and you will learn more.‎ ‎  40  Studying is not something you do just because your parents ask you to do it.It's actually very important for you.Studying gives you knowledge and skills that will remain with you for the rest of your life.It gives you the ability to get a job and earn money.And successful students recognize the value of studying well.‎ A.
