Even if you do nothing about it, your bad mood will probably go away after some time. But with a little effort, you can forget it much faster, often within a day or two.‎ ‎·Walk it off Exercise is the most popular bad-mood buster. A person who’s in a bad mood has low energy and tension. Taking a fast ten-minute walk, or taking some quick exercise can to do wonders towards changing that bad mood.‎ ‎·Tune it out ‎ Listening to your favorite music for a while can also make tensions go away quickly, because music starts associations with past positive experiences we’ve had.‎ ‎·Give yourself a pep talk Stop and listen to what’s on your mind. Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts. Write them all down on paper; the pessimistic(悲观的)messages you've been giving yourself and then give optimistic answers.(“I still don't have a job.” vs. “I have two interviews next week.”)‎ ‎·Reduce your stress Relaxation techniques are wonderful mood-liters. These include deep breathing, stretching and visualizing(想象), all of which sound complicated but aren't. One easy way to visualize; close your eyes and picture a favorite place, such as the beach. Another simple way to distress is to make a to-do list. One reason for being in a bad mood is feeling you have no options(选择权). By taking control over certain areas, you realize you're not helpless. You can make changes in your mood and life.‎ ‎·Avoid thins that won't improve your mood TV may not help much: you need to increase your energy level and stimulate your mind-something that the TV show “Neighbors” won't do. And before you reach for that piece of cake and coffee, think about how mood and food are linked. Sugar and caffeine contribute to depressed moods. The better choice? Research shows that carbohydrates, such as potatoes and pasta, produce a calming effect in people who have a desire for them.‎ ‎1. We learn from the text that it might help rid us of a bad mood .‎ ‎ A. to do nothing about it ‎ B. to take a long walk on the beach ‎ C. to take some exercise with light music ‎ D. to talk it to neighbors ‎2.

This text most probably appears in .‎ ‎ A. a book on physical exercises ‎ B. a doctor's handbook ‎ C. a notice ‎ D. a magazine Passage 21‎ LET’S CLEAN JUP OUR TOWN!‎ ‎ The city and the environmental council are organizing a cleanup campaign in all neighborhoods on Saturday, October 14.

A1995 earthquake struck while the bridge was under construction, moving the towers apart by almost three feet. Engineers altered the roadway plans to complete the change.‎ Great Belt East Location: Halsskov-Sprogoe, Denmark Year: 1998‎ Main Span: 1,624 meters Denmark's biggest building project connected the nation's two main islands, Zealand and Funen. The bridge helped cut average travel times across the body of water know as the Great Belt from 90 minutes, via ferry(摆渡), to 10-15 minute on the bridge.‎ Humber Location: Hull, England Year: 1981‎ Main span: 1,410 meters This bridge spans the Humber River in East Yorkshire, near the site of an ancient Roman ferry service that operated around 70 A.D.Construction took longer than expected, but Queen Elizabeth Ⅱ presided(主持) over the opening in July 1981.‎ Mackinac Straits Location: Mackinaw City, MI, USA Year: 1957‎ Main span: 1,158 meters Residents first proposed a bridge or tunnel connecting Michigan’s Upper and lower Peninsulas in the 1800s, after year-round ferry service proved impossible in the cold weather. Over seven decades later, engineers make 85,000 blueprints and 4,000 engineering drawing for the bridge called the Mighty Mac.‎ ‎1.

B 细节理解题，从文章中的America jazz和live hand可知选B。‎ ‎ 3. D 细节理解题。‎ ‎ 4. A 从文章最后一部分可知。‎ Passage 2、‎ ‎1. C 细节判断题。家庭主妇显然对饭菜节目更感兴趣（第三频道7:00的节目：Cooking with Cathy）。‎ ‎2. 细节判断题。第三频道8:00的节目NBA Basketball.提供game show，因此可以选择本频道。‎ ‎3. D 细节判断题。综合分析60、7:00、7:30和8:00的节目可以发现第九频道的节目主要以新闻为主：News, Farm Report，News Special。‎ Passage 3、‎ ‎1. C 在“Monsoon Storms”中，“政府气象学家说这次出人意料之外的季风吹过了整个国家……”，由此可知C项正确，其余错误。‎ ‎2. D 显然图标上指明的仅是方向。‎ ‎3. D 本题是一细节题。Mt Etna火山爆发持续了30分钟，因此A错；飓风Blas是在离墨西哥海岸不远的地方形成的，因此B错；通过观察地图，可推知截止到7月3日，美国中西部有暴风雨，所以C项错；文章提到火山爆发未威胁到附近的村庄，可推知D项正确。‎ ‎4. B 由Toshiaki Wada所说的话：……but the monkeys are bright enough to outsmart the tricks可推知。‎ ‎5. C 本文主要讲述天气的突然改变。‎ Passage 4、‎ ‎1.A 本题为细节题。根据文章内容，只有Tania的话中有这种观点，于是本题的正确答案选A。‎ passage 5、‎ ‎1. B 细节理解题。‎ ‎2. C 细节理解题。‎ ‎3. D 细节理解题。‎ ‎4. B 由倒数第二、三段The term paper…should not exceed fifteen pages 和Anyone thinking of majoring in history may write twenty-five pages可知。‎ Passage 6、‎ ‎1. B 根据第二、三句可知，该组织的目标有二：1……enough help is quickly available for emergencies in all parts of the world; 2……protect themselves from ‎ the effects of future droughts。由引可排除C、D，因为他们均只能涵括一项，A项“粮食减产”不应是stop，而应是prevent。Famine意为“饥荒，B是正确答案。‎ ‎ 3. C 最后三段别提到了A（倒数第三段）、B（倒数第二段）、D（最后一段）三项内容，只有C没有提。‎ ‎ 4. C A通过文章前半部分可知，B与第四段内容相符，D与倒数第二段内容一致，而C与第四段最后一句中的long-term development projects相矛盾。‎ Passage 7、‎ ‎ 1. C 这是一个细节理解题。通过阅读，我们可以作一个大致推理和判断，是C中所说的内容。‎ ‎2. C 可以用排除法：A中have to太片面；B中only太绝对；D的意思和原文有出入，所以选C。‎ Passage 8、‎ ‎1. C 根据第一段Students are expected to be critical of what they read and hear, and to be able of working independently. 得知荷兰教育的一个显著特点是引导学生独立思考。‎ ‎ 2. B 短文第二、三段暗示在荷兰寻找住房比较困难。‎ ‎ 3. A 根据短文，获取博士学位的费用至少是：（5, 000+450×12）×10=104,000yuan。‎ ‎ 4. D 根据最后两段可知，多数学生骑二手自行车主要是因为自行车便捷、便宜。‎ Passage 9、‎ ‎ 1. C 第一则广告说：“we are looking for friendly who would take our children into their homes for a few hours……”。可推知C项正确。‎ ‎2. D 第一选项说得过分；第二项选项亦不符合文章；第三项选项并未提，因此，只有最后一项目符合文章。‎ ‎3. A 唯有在广告“Street Food”中提到需要帮手，因此可拨打电话27713。‎ Passage 10、‎ ‎1. B 从第二大项Cello recital可以看出最低价50yuan，从第三大项Pipa concert可以看出最低价40yuan。从上可以得出选项B。‎ ‎2. A 从第三大项Pipa concert可以看出。‎ ‎3. C 从第一大项The Phantom of the opera可以看出这一演出并不是第一次演出，而是第一次来上海演出，故A项错；B项民第一大项中The Phantom of the Opera depicts a mysterious person with a beautiful voice living under the Pairs Theatre相矛盾，D项与she builds on a vast body of musical history from the East and West相矛盾。‎ Passage 11、‎ ‎1. A 本题为细节理解题。根据文章第一段的第二句可知，ABE系的目标为传授社会需要的基本技能和知识，于是本题的正确答案选A。‎ ‎2. C 本题为细节理解题。文章Prerequisites中的第一段的第二句可推知，十七岁的学生不能被接收是因为他没有学校的正式允许，于是本题的正确答案选C。‎ passage 12、‎ ‎1. A 根据短文，look up a word in a dictionary 属于查询工具用书，应该到Ground floor。‎ ‎2. D 根据短文normal size novels属于“WHTTE Normal size books”范畴，因此书架的颜色是“白色”。‎ Passage 13、‎ ‎1. D 参与Flower festival的第三段可因知选D。‎ ‎2. A 参与Russian dances 最后的Time……‎ passage 14、‎ ‎1. D 文章第三点第二项说：计划好你的旅程并携带地图，文章最后一点谈到家的安全，针对的是旅游者和本地居民。‎ ‎2. C 文章第二点第三项中明确指出要坐后排，排除B、D，从When traveling alone sit in the back seat中可排除A。‎ ‎3. B 根据语境此处用 careful较好，意为“谨慎”，而C项sensitive是指“敏感的”，不太适合。‎ Passage 15、‎ ‎1. D 可以用排除法直接得到答案。‎ Passage 16‎ ‎1. A 由表格中第12项看出。‎ ‎2. D 由文中倒数第三段第一行“If you have got 10 points or above, but still less than 15 points, you will receive a warning letter from…”可知，D为最佳选项。‎ Passage 17‎ ‎1. D 本文为广告，只有HELP WANTED中有看小孩的。‎ ‎2. B 当想买东西时只有For Sale，故B为最佳选项。‎ Passage 18‎ ‎1. C 这是一张银行位置列表单，所以据表中第一行可知C为最佳选项。‎ ‎2. C 因为银行大部分都在繁华地段，而Queen Street在该页出现次数最多（四次），故选C项。‎ ‎3. D 根据下面说明“All banks close Sat. Sun & Public Holidays”可知D为最佳选项。‎ ‎4. D 据表下说明星期五的营业时间从9:30到下午5点而其他时间到下午4点，所以D为正确选项。‎ Passage 19‎ ‎1. C 文中多次出现search和com以及第二段“to give you full control over the Science & Biotech job search process”，可知最佳选项应为C。‎ ‎2. D 根据全文是一个网站功能介绍，网站没有工作，只给你提供信息，故D是最佳选项。‎ ‎3. D 文章主要介绍网站的好处，故希望你多多登录，故D应为最佳选项。‎ Passage 20‎ ‎[语篇解读]该文为一则健康小常识，介绍了几种有助于帮助人们摆脱掉坏心情的方法。‎ ‎1. C 首先排除A项；根据“Reduce your stress”一段中的“One easy way to visualize: close your eyes and picture a favorite place, such as the beach”可知“海滩”是“想象”出来以摆脱坏心情的，故排除B项；根据“Avoid things that won’t improve your mood”一段中“something that the TV show “Neighbors” won’t do ”可知“Neighbors”是电视剧的名字，而非D项的“和邻居谈谈自己的坏心情”，故排除；C项为“Walk it off”和“Tune it out”两段内容的结合，故正确。‎ ‎2. C “闭上眼睛，在脑海中浮现海滩的场景”是“Relaxation techniques”（放松技巧）中的技巧之一；“visualizing”（想象）所举的一个例子，而且全篇文章讲述的是如何摆脱坏心情的方法，故选C项。‎ ‎3. B 根据最后一条建议“Avoid things that won’t improve your mood”（避免做那些不会改变你情绪的事情）中的第一句话：当你需要增加活力来缓解压抑的情绪时，看那些叙述日常生活、邻里关系一类的电视剧是不会有什么帮助的，那些节目无法打动你。注意B项中unmoved一词并非“（身体）不动”，而是“（情绪）不被感动”。‎ ‎4. D 文章就如何改善情绪提出了几条建议，锻炼只是其中一条，故A项不全面；文章的专业性不强，所以也不可能出现在医生手册上；文章的内容应归为生活常识类，因此不应是一则通知，而是某种大众杂志上的健康生活类的文章。‎ Passage 21‎ ‎[语篇解读]本文为动员全体市民积极参加环卫活动的一则通知。‎ ‎1. D 根据PRIZES中第二条Food coupons from Happy Harry’s Hamburger Heaven可知这家汉堡包店提供了coupons（优惠券）作为奖励。‎ ‎2. D ‎ 该题可用排除法解答。A项中的汉堡包店是提供奖励的单位之一，因此是可能在橱窗上贴此通知的；该通知是号召市民参加的大型活动，因此在当地媒体上告知公众也是符合常识的；该活动是一项环保活动，那么C项的环保俱乐部自然应积极响应，所以出现在它的时事通讯上也是合情合理；因此，即使不知道D项的the Yellow ages（电话薄）是什么意思，也可以按此方法解答出来。‎ Passage 22‎ ‎[语篇解读]本文简介了四座举世闻名的吊桥。‎ ‎1. A 文章第一段：人们喜爱吊桥出于很多种原因，比如喜欢它们的实用性，或者喜欢它们因精确的计算而产生的优雅的外形以及它们长长的跨度，甚至就是因为它们为当地人提供了炫耀的资本。B、C、C三项的宽度、高度和悠久的历史在这一段中都未提及，故排除。‎ ‎2. D 最古老的吊桥通过年代对比可知为Year 1957，位于美国；最长的吊桥通过跨度对比可知为Main span:1,991 meters可知位于日本。‎ ‎3. D 该题要逐项核对信息。A项根据Construction took longer than expected（建造工作比预期的时间要长）可知Ｈumber吊桥并非按期完工，排除掉；B项根据Residents first proposed a bridge or tunnel…可知因为天气寒冷，轮船无法摆渡，当地居民首先提出建一座桥或隧道，而不是Mackinac Straits最初是被设计成了一条隧道，排除掉；C项根据Denmark’s biggest building project connected the nation’s two main islands. Zealand and Funen.（丹麦最大的建筑工程，连接了国内两个岛屿，而不是in England,故排除；D项根据A 1995earthquake struck while the bridge was under construction……（桥梁在建造期间曾遭受了1995年地震的袭击。）可知D项为正确选项，这里注意短语under construction：在建设中。‎ Passage 23‎ ‎[语篇解读]本文是Sunshine 公司的一则产品广告。‎ ‎1. C Dr clean 出现在B2377-HOME CLEANER广告中。根据It is safe and strong, and it cleans everything in your house!（该产品性能安全，功能强大，能够清洁房间内的一切物品。）可以排除A项an expert(一位专家)；根据图形和其右边的产品目录：洗发剂、喷雾剂、帆布包、肥皂、清洁剂可以排除B项a machine（一台机器）和D项a magic cloth（一块清洁用的神奇的布）；因此C项一罐清洁粉最符合图形和产品简介，故为正确答案。‎ ‎2. B 根据广告，C、D两项可以最先排除。根据D4545-GARDEN SPRAY 广告：在我们的新型chili garlic喷雾剂的作用下，昆虫将被一扫而光。因此考生如果没有认真审题的计算成本有易误选A项。题干试问：如果你需要消灭蚂蚁的产品，可以将信寄至哪儿？显然不可以寄给产品，而是生产产品的公司，故B为正确答案。‎ ‎3. C 根据A2477-HAND SOAP广告中：There are no chemicals in it.可知答案。‎ ‎4. B 该题看似简单，但设计得很巧妙，粗心的考生极易误选B项，忽略了$3.50的邮资费，因此正确价格应为$20.50。‎
