Soon, my family moved to New Jersey.Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.‎ The next day Donna brought her new friend home.“Hi,Mrs.Loggia,” the little girl said.Her hair was so shiny and black and she shot me a big smile.“My name is Laura.”‎ My daughter’s new friend was so much like Lillian.I was still puzzled(迷惑的) when Laura’s mom came to pick her up later that afternoon.I opened the door to let her in.“Judy!” she cried.“It’s me,Lillian’s sister, from Washington Heights.” Yes, my daughter’s friend looked familiar.She was Lillian’s niece.‎ ‎25.The underlined words in the first paragraph “to bring her out of her shell” mean 　　　.‎ A.to help her become less shy B.to help her become smart C.to help her live happily D.to help her walk out of her house ‎26.Laura looked familiar to the writer because she　　　.‎ A.was Lillian’s niece B.was as old as her daughter C.was from Washington Heights D.had shiny black hair and a big smile, too ‎27.Why did the writer lose her best friend?‎ A.Because she moved to New Jersey.‎ B.Because they were different from each other.‎ C.Because her best friend travelled to Florida.‎ D.Because her best friend lost her life on a trip.‎ ‎28.“I knew we would be best friends forever.” is a sentence from the passage and should be put at the end of 　　　.‎ A.Paragraph 2 B.Paragraph 3 ‎ C.Paragraph 4 D.Paragraph 5‎ C When I was small and my grandmother died,I couldn’t understand why I had no tears.But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.‎ So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain.Just as laughing has many health advantages,‎ scientists are discovering that so, too, does crying.‎ Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional (情感的) health, and crying seems to work well.One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.‎ Besides, tears attract help from other people.Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and more friendly and they are ready to provide support and comfort.Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don’t even know we’ re very sad until we cry.We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.‎ Just as crying can be healthy, not crying-holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering—can be bad for physical health.Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high ‎ blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses.If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry.But when you feel like crying, don’t fight it.It’s a natural–and healthy-emotional response (反应).‎ ‎29.Why didn’t the author cry when her grandmother died?‎ A.Because her father did not want her to feel too sad.‎ B.The author doesn’t give the explanation.‎ C.Because she did not love her grandmother.‎ D.Because she was too shy to cry at that time.‎ ‎30.According to the author, which of the following statements is true?‎ A.Fighting back tears may cause some health problems.‎ B.Crying is the best way to get help from others.‎ C.We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry.‎ D.We must cry if we want to reduce pressure.‎ ‎31.What might be the most suitable title for the text?‎ A.How to Keep Healthy B.Power of Tears C.Why We Cry D.A New Scientific Discovery D It is important to learn business English if you are going to successfully communicate with others.

Later, try to pronounce the words and use them in a sentence and ask someone who is good at English to help you.‎ In business you will have to learn such things as taking messages, answering the phones with proper words and communicating with your co-workers. You may have to learn how to make travel plans. Business English is very different from spoken English. Grammar is the same but you have to learn things like expressing yourself in a proper manner or maybe making a report in your office.‎ If you are working in the customer service sector (客户服务部门),you really have to learn business English.

Once he forgot he had eaten breakfast twice, at home and at school. His wife liked to remind her neighbors, “If John didn’t have his head tied on, he would forget that too!” Since Smith was a professor at a well-known university, his forgetfulness was often an embarrassment to him. It wasn’t that he was not clever, as some critical people tended to say, but just very, very absent-minded.‎ One hot summer day, Pro.Smith decided to take his children to a seaside town about a three-hour train ride away. To make the trip more interesting for his young children, he kept the ‎ name of the town a secret. However, by the time they arrived at the station, Smith forgot the name of the town he was planning to visit. luckily, a friend of his happened to be in the station.

However , the real reason was that he forgot where he had left his children. Sensing something wrong, Mrs. Smith didn’t believe his words, because whenever he told a lie, he would blink his eyes usually quickly. “ Tell me the truth,” ordered his wife. “ As you told me, I didn’t forget where I put the name of that town, but I forget the station where I left our children!” Whispered the professor, his voice trembling. “ What a bad memory!” shouted the wife.‎ ‎“Hearing the cry, out rushed their neighbors, trying to find out what had happened.
