I was convinced that it was because my job was demanding, but as I changed my job and eventually became self-employed and I could call my own shots, I was still drowned in work and things were still out of control. Now I come to realize that I have a tendency to drown myself in work and the problem is not the job I’m in.‎ One of the reasons why work-life balance is hard is that we attribute (把……归咎于) the problem to our environment when we ourselves are the problem actually. I enjoy making my clients happy. “Dushka, your work is unbelievable.” “Dushka, we would not have survived without you.” This is my instinctive (本能的) desire. I, a good girl, should make someone I love proud. What can get in the way of work-life balance is that approval often matters more than the balance I claim I want.‎ I am ambitious (雄心勃勃的) and want to do great things and as soon as a project is done I’m hungry for the next one. I want hard work. I want to push myself and test myself. I want to learn. Sometimes work-life balance is hard because there is a difference between what I say I want and what I really want.‎ My life is constantly changing. If a friend visits me from out of town I want to work less, if I happen to be particularly inspired I want to work more, and if a family member needs me I don’t want to have to worry about work at all. Work-life balance is hard because my definition of it is a moving target. It means different things to me depending on different situations.‎ What is work-life balance, anyway? Does it mean I get to go home every day when the clock strikes 5:00 pm? Does it mean that I work hard for a few weeks and then take a long weekend off? Do I want daily balance, or do I want things to balance out over the course of a few weeks, even months?‎ On one side, work-life balance doesn’t mean that the only way to do something ‎ well is to do it yourself. Your ego (自我) gets in the way of your being free. On the other side, work-life balance can be hard if you are worried that someone else can do your job better than yourself. Then you live in a constant state of suspicion (怀疑) and never allow yourself to step away. Your fear is calling the shots, not your ambitions.‎ Work-life balance can be hard if you are more worried about looking good than doing good work. If you want to make sure everyone sees you are the first one to come and the last one to leave, what others think of you has more weight than your desire of getting home in time for dinner.‎ ‎ My boss assures me that employees come first and that people are the most important, yet I don’t see him telling me it’s time to go home because I worked really late the night before.‎ ‎ Wait a minute. Why should my work-life balance be the company’s problem, in particular when I’ve already identified that my needs are ever-changing? How can I expect someone else to stay on top of that? The only person responsible for that is me.‎ ‎59. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?‎ A. Demand less from myself. B. Control a situation by myself.‎ ‎ C. Complete more excellent jobs. D. Pay more attention to work.‎ ‎60. The author enjoys making her clients happy because _______.‎ ‎ A. she is afraid to lose her job ‎ B. she always desires to be approved ‎ C. she wants to gain work-life balance ‎ D. she could make a profit in that way ‎61. What can we learn about the author?‎ A. Her ego gets in the way of her success.‎ B. She is always satisfied with the current situation.‎ C. The achievement of work-life balance is easy for her. .‎ D. She doesn’t have an exact definition of work-life balance.‎ ‎62. What does the example of the author’s boss tend to indicate?‎ ‎ A. Work-life balance relies on our own selves. ‎ ‎ B. It’s no use working hard for our boss.‎ ‎ C. Profits are more important than employees. ‎ ‎ D. Some leaders don’t mean what they say.‎ C Young adults have strong positive memories of the music their parents loved when they were the same age, a study finds.‎ Participants in a study on musical memory said they remembered and loved the music that was popular in the early 1980s, when their parents were young. They also relished the music of the 1960s, which their grandparents may have been playing while changing their mom’ s diapers (尿布). “They would hear this music and say, ‘Oh yeah, that’s my parents’ music,’ with obvious fondness,” says Carol Lynne Krumhansl, the psychology professor at Cornell University who led the study.‎ The scientists had been testing musical memory in an earlier study, and were surprised to find that collegeage participants could recognize older pop and rock songs just as quickly as the new stuff. Even more surprisingly, they liked the older stuff more. Therefore, the researchers decided to find out what was happening, using clips from hits on Billboard lists between 1955 and 2009. More than 60 student volunteers (average age 20) listened to short clips of the top two pop and rock songs of each year. The researchers quizzed them about which songs they recognized, how much they liked them and their emotional responses. They were also asked if they had memories associated with the songs and whether those memories were from listening with parents, alone, or with others.‎ ‎“We didn’t have any idea” that young adults had the strongest personal memories of the music of the early 1980s, Krumhansl said. She and her colleague, Justin Adam Zupnick of the University of California, were even more surprised to see the second “reminiscence bump (回忆高峰)” in emotion and memory for top hits was from 1965 to 1969. ‎ The connection to parents’ music isn’t entirely surprising. Music plays a central role in bringing up a child. Songs are taught at home and school and heard more informally as part of the home environment. The songs parents choose to listen to reflect their taste, their values, and their era. Besides, music is a powerful cue (提示) for retrieving strong personal memories — when you made a new friend at the summer camp or the blue dress you wore to a party. And the human brain remembers music in great detail, unlike spoken words, in which people remember just the general meaning.‎ The 1960s music may evoke strong memories in people in their twenties because of the quality, Krumhansl guesses. She thinks the students might have memories of the 1960s music because it lives on as classics. Technology may also be a factor. The introduction of cassette tapes in the 1960s made music more ubiquitous (普遍存在的), and the same tapes were played long after that decade ended.‎ Next, Krumhansl wants to find out if other generations have the same experiences with music, and try to trace influences back through multiple generations.‎ ‎63. The underlined word “relished” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.‎ A. played B. heard C. understood D. enjoyed ‎64. We can learn from the study that young adults ______. ‎ A. can only recognize the top two pop and rock songs on Billborad lists B. showed no emotional response to music of the 1950s C. had the second strongest memories of the music of the late 1960s D. like listening to the old songs with their parents ‎65. The last but one paragraph serves to _______.‎ A. draw a conclusion B. make a comparison C. give an example D. provide an explanation ‎66. What’s the main idea of the passage?‎ A. Music of parents’ era still appeals to young adults of today.‎ B. Music can narrow the generation gap between parents and kids.‎ C. Music matters a lot in the growth of young people.‎ D. Music of quality can have a lasting influence.‎ D Until recently, scientists and authors were in absolute disagreement over the point of crying. In King Henry VI, Shakespeare wrote, “… to weep is to make less the depth of grief”, and the American writer Lemony Snicket said, “… you know that a good, long session of weeping can often make you feel better, even if your circumstances have not changed one bit”.‎ ‎ Charles Darwin, on the other hand, thought that shedding tears (流泪) was merely a useless side effect of the way that the muscles around the eyes worked. For him, those muscles had to contract (收缩) from time to time so that they weren’t filled with blood; the squeeze of tears was simply an unintended consequence of that evolved physiological (生理学的) process. He did acknowledge that crying could help small babies attract the attention of their parents, though.‎ We now know that crying — at least, the sort that adults do — is a complex physiological response to some kind of emotional stimulus (刺激). The most noticeable feature is of course the shedding of tears, but it also includes changes in facial expressions and breathing patterns.‎ From a scientific perspective, crying is different from shedding the kind of tears like when you accidentally rub your eyes after eating very hot foods. Even the tears themselves are different. In 1981, Minnesota psychiatrist William H Frey II discovered that tears flowing due to sad movies had more protein in them than those that flowed in response to some freshly chopped onions.‎ If you shed tears of laughter when seeing a funny comedy show or you’re moved to tears when listening to a bridegroom’s wedding vows to his bride, you may know that emotional tears aren’t limited to feeling of deep sadness. Although all of us are familiar with the feelings that are associated with crying, whether for joy or sorrow, we know little about why we do it as adults — but there are plenty of ideas.‎ One idea is that adult crying isn’t actually all that different from the sort that babies do, at least when it comes to its social nature. In other words, perhaps weeping is only a cry for attention, a means of seeking support and help from our ‎ family and friends when we need it the most. It’s a way of communicating our inner emotional state at a time when we may not be able to express it clearly.‎ While this may explain some forms of crying, many researchers have found that adults often cry when they’re completely alone. Another possibility is that crying might serve as a way of helping people realize just how upset they are and helping people understand their own feelings. ‎ Another idea is that crying provides relief from stressful situations. The idea is consistent not only with the words of Shakespeare, but also with the words of Roman poet Ovid, who wrote, “It is some relief to weep; grief is satisfied and carried off by tears.” The Greek philosopher Aristotle also wrote that crying “cleanses the mind”. In a 1986 study of popular US magazines and newspapers, one psychologist found that 94% articles about crying “suggested that it helped to relieve psychological tension.‎ Indeed, a 2008 study of nearly 4,300 young adults from 30 in both their mental and physical well-being after a short period of crying, but not all. Some reported no change after a crying session, and some even said that they felt worse afterwards.‎ The difference seems to lie in the context: if a person felt embarrassed about crying in public, for example, he might feel less relieved than if he cried alone or with a close friend. The study also found that when people tried to hide their crying, they ended up feeling less relieved afterwards. ‎ So having “a good cry” is not without merit. In the end, adults might just cry for the same reason as babies: to seek help from their friends and family.‎ ‎67. According to Darwin, shedding tears was ________.‎ A. the same thing as crying ‎ B. aimed at attracting others’ attention ‎ C. nothing but a physiological process ‎ D. an effective way to get rid of negative emotions ‎68. What can we learn from the passage about crying?‎ ‎ A. It can benefit people’s eye muscles.‎ ‎ B. It is a response to the stimulus to eyes.‎ ‎ C. It is usually caused by painful emotions.‎ ‎ D. It can cause changes in people’s outward features.‎ ‎69. By mentioning the 1986 study, the author intends to tell us that ______.‎ A. crying is helpful in reducing stress B. it is unwise of people to hide their crying C. not all people can feel better after crying D. many articles about crying have been published in magazines ‎70. What is the best title of the passage?‎ A. Why do people cry B. Experiments on crying C. Different types of crying D. Is having a cry good for us 第Ⅱ卷 （三部分，共35分）‎ 第四部分 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题0.5分，满分5分）‎ 请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。‎ 注意：每个空格只填1个单词。请将答案写在答题纸上相应题号的横线上。‎ Someone once said to me, “You do show your emotions, but you rarely express your feelings.” What does this sentence mean? If I am showing my emotions through facial expressions, body language, or words, then how can I hide my feelings? Well, the answer is simple. Feelings are deeper than emotions. The face can express many emotions, but it can easily mask what the heart truly feels.‎ Emotions are physical signals that our body is constantly giving us. They occur before you realize it. If you are experiencing fear, you may instantly start panicking, sweating, trembling, etc.. But, once the factor that resulted in the fear has gone, you will be perfectly fine. Basically, emotions can come and go. However, feelings stay. Different emotions accumulate (积累) over time, and as our brain consciously understands them, they transform into feelings. However, while two people may experience similar emotions, their feelings may not be the same. Personal experiences and personalities play an essential role in determining what you feel. Feelings are much richer, have many more layers, and run a lot deeper than emotions. As a result,‎ ‎ it is quite tough to get rid of them.‎ For example, you are checking the results of an important exam, and you are obviously anxious, which is an emotion. You pass the exam with flying colors, and you don’t feel anxious any more. Now, consider another scenario (情境) — you fail or get fewer marks in the exam, and then you develop another feeling—worry. Thus, you may worry every time you are given an exam, because you fear to get fewer marks. For another example, someone’s actions may annoy or anger you. These are emotions, which may eventually make you feel bitterness towards that person. Here, bitterness is a feeling.‎ According to neuroscience, emotions are nothing but chemical reactions. These develop as we react to certain stimuli (刺激物). As we start becoming aware of these emotions we begin to understand our feelings better. Your morals and beliefs will play a major role in shaping your feelings. Feelings sustain, whereas emotions are not permanent (永久的), and can be extremely strong.‎ As you can see, emotions and feelings are just two shades of the same color. But this difference is very important. The key to a successful life is to understand and manage your emotions better. You may not be able to change your emotions, but you can change your feelings. Of course, it is easier said than done. But remember, feelings are nothing but thoughts, on a subconscious level, and thoughts can be changed.‎ Feelings and emotions Introduction Feelings are deeper than emotions, because emotions can be shown easily while feelings are easy to (71) ▲ . ‎ Differences between them ‎*Emotions happen (72) ▲ it but go instantly once its contributing factor disappear.‎ ‎*Feelings are formed from a(n) (73) ▲ accumulation of different emotions. ‎ ‎*Though two people may experience similar emotions, their feelings may (74) ▲ as feelings are determined by one’s personal experiences ‎ and personalities.‎ Two examples ‎*The (75) ▲ you feel while checking the results of an exam is an emotion, which will be gone if you pass the exam successfully.

As a senior student, I think the most important treasures in our life are friendship and ideals.‎ ‎ Friendship means a lot to me. I always share sorrows and joys with my friends. Often we offer help each other. Without friends, we would feel lonely and our life would be colorless. Besides friendship, ideals also play an important role in our ‎ life. Ideals act as lights in darkness, guiding us forward. Inspired by ideals, we’ll keep moving on. I think a person without ideals is one without hope.‎ ‎ However, how can we win true friendship? In my opinion, we should first learn to communicate. Also, it’s important to be generous and kind to others. Learn to give rather than take. As to ideals, ask ourselves what our strengths and weaknesses are and where our interests lie so as to make it clear what we want to be when we grow up. In this way, we can set up ideals, which we will live up to. ‎ Text 1‎ M: Excuse me, I’d like to buy some stamps. ‎ W: How many? ‎ M: I need ten 30-cent stamps. ‎ Text 2‎ M: I think green is good on me. Do you have a green one for this shirt? ‎ W: I’ll check, but to tell you the truth, I think this color makes you look younger. ‎ Text 3‎ M: I heard you didn’t have a lot of shoppers at your year-end sale. ‎ W: That’s right. I’m certain more people would have come if I had advertised the sale. ‎ Text 4‎ W: You don’t seem to be able to sit still today. What’s going on? ‎ M: Today they’ll announce who gets the big scholarship for next year. ‎ Text 5‎ M: I’ve heard great things about the movie that just came out. Will you want to go to see it tonight? ‎ W: I’d love to, but the-end-of-term exams are on the way. I think I’d better stay home getting ready for it. ‎ Text 6‎ M: How can I help you, Miss? ‎ W: Could you break a 20-dollar bill for me? ‎ M: Sure. How do you want it? ‎ W: Could I have some 5’s and the rest in 1’s? ‎ M: ⑥Well, I have two 5’s, but I don’t have enough l’s. Are quarters fine with you? ‎ W: Oh, that’s even better! In that case, ⑦I won’t have to worry about the small change for the bus later. ‎ M: Here you go! ‎ W: Thanks a million! ‎ Text 7‎ W: Many children nowadays can play some musical instruments. In my daughter’s class, some can play the piano and some can play the violin. ‎ M: ⑧I think these children are too tired. They have to do too much homework after class and find time to learn to play a musical instrument. ‎ W: But music gives people enjoyment. Learning to play the piano or the violin can help children develop their ability of understanding music. ‎ M: I agree. But I still don’t think it’s a good idea to force children to learn too much when they are young. Can your daughter play the piano or the violin? ‎ W: ⑨She can play the violin. ‎ Text 8‎ M: Hey, Betsy, did you hear the great news? ‎ W: No, Frank, I haven’t. What is going on? ‎ M: I just got a promotion, and I am going to throw a huge party for all of my friends. I would love it if you would come. ‎ W: Wow, thanks so much. When is the party? ‎ M: I am thinking of having it on Saturday. I am hoping there will be 150 people there. ‎ W: Wow, that is a lot. This must be a big promotion. I would love to go. I think it would be a great time. ‎ M: Oh great, the more, the merrier. This really is a big deal for me. We can now afford the new house my wife has always wanted. I just hope I don’t have to put too many hours in. I would hate to lose too much time with my family. ‎ W: I can understand that, but let’s keep focusing on the bright side. I can’t wait ‎ for that party. ‎ Text 9‎ M: Do you want to go to a big university or a small one? ‎ W: I think I’d rather go to a small university, so the classes wouldn’t be so large. ‎ M: Do you want to go out of the state or stay here? ‎ W: I want to stay in the state, so I will be close to home. ‎ M: It sure would be nice to be close enough to come home on weekends when you want to. How about a public or private university? ‎ W: Well, I like the atmosphere of a private school. The students are more serious about school, and there aren’t a lot of parties. ‎ M: Yes, but private universities are so expensive. How are you going to pay for it? ‎ W: I’ve applied for a music scholarship, and my parents will be able to help me pay for some of the expenses. What about you? What are you going to do after graduation? ‎ M: I’m going to study in Oregon State University. ‎ W: Oh, I know a lot of kids who’ve gone there really like it. ‎ M: Well, a lot of my friends are going there, and the school has a good teacher preparation program. I’ve always wanted to be a teacher. I’m really excited about the life at college. ‎ W: Well, good luck. ‎ M: You too. See you later. ‎ Text 10‎ M: Good morning, everyone, I am Professor Smith, and I am your laboratory instructor. This class is intended as a necessary part of the course, which Dr. James will be in charge of. This class will meet twice a week in this laboratory. It begins at nine. First I expect you to be on time. I do not intend to wait for latecomers or repeat what has already been covered if you miss the explanation. Do not arrive late and interrupt your neighbor; you may as well not come if you can’t be on time. ‎ Attendance is equally important. If you miss three lab classes, your name will be moved away from the class list, I’m afraid. No excuses. You can’t complete the course without completing lab class. ‎ Safety is key here. It is very important to keep things neat and clean, dress properly, and be careful. You cannot eat, drink or smoke in the laboratory and you should always clean the table top and wash your hands before and after the class. Long hair must be tied up. Large clothing must be worn. And, finally, any laboratory accident must be reported immediately. ‎ I hope you’ll enjoy the laboratory. It’s a wonderful place but all these instructions are to be strictly followed. We will begin today by learning about the microscope. ‎
