I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family.‎ I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning. And when I bought a house several years later, my dad painted it by himself in the fierce summer heat. All he asked was to talk to him, but I was to busy in those days.‎ Four years ago, my dad visited me. He spent many hours putting together a swing for my daughter. He asked me to have a talk with him, but I had to prepare for a trip that weekend.‎ One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things that we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Several hours later that day I received a call. My father was in the hospital. Immediately I bought a plane ticket and on my way I was thinking about all the occasions I missed to have a talk with my dad. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was he who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realized how little I knew about my dad, his deepest thoughts and his dreams.‎ After his death I learned much more about him and even more about myself. All he ‎ ever wanted was my time. And now he has all my attention every single day.‎ ‎24．When the author was a little girl, she.‎ A． liked playing on the swing B． often talked with her father C． was good at repairing things D． learned to take care of her family ‎25．When at college, the author.‎ A． received a call from her father every Sunday morning B． phoned her father every Sunday morning C． asked her father to call her every Sunday D． asked her father to talk with her ‎26．Why did the author fail to have a talk with her father four years ago?‎ A． She had got tired of talking with him.‎ B． She was busy painting her house.‎ C． Her daughter asked her to play.‎ D． She was busy planning a trip.‎ ‎27．When did the author begin to regret missing the talks with her father?‎ A． After her father's sudden death.B． Many years after her father's death.‎ C． On her way to the hospital to see her father.‎ D． As soon as she got the news that her father was ill.‎ C A new study suggests that people who drank a certain amount of alcohol（酒）had a lower risk of cancer and death than those who drank more or none during a nine-year period. And with each additional drink a week, the risk of cancer and death from any cause increased, the scientists reported.‎ However, the study found only an association between alcohol and cancer and death, and did not prove cause and effect, the researches said. What sets the new study apart, said lead study author Andrew Kunzmann, is that previous studies looked at cancer and death separately. “What our study does is combine the two outcomes together and we find that lighter drinking is associated with the lowest risk of cancer or death,” Kunzmann said.‎ But Kunzmann noted that the participants（参与者）were all older adults. That means ‎ that “we’re not really showing what happens in younger people if they drink,” he said. Also, it’s difficult to account for other lifestyles that could have affected the results. “These could also influence health. But the results did take into consideration differences in diet, smoking and education among participants,” Kunzmann noted.‎ The researchers said that they hope their study sparks conversation about reducing the suggested alcohol intake in countries’ guidelines. “We’re not telling people what they can or can’t do or what they can or can’t drink,” Kunzmann said. “We’re just trying to give them reliable evidence so that they can make their own informed, healthy decisions.”‎ ‎28．What is the finding of the new study?‎ A． Nondrinkers are least likely to have cancer.‎ B． Drinking helps lower the risk of cancer.‎ C． Lighter drinking is helpful to health.D． Heavy drinkers are at more risk.‎ ‎29．Which of the following best explains “previous” underlined in Paragraph 2?‎ A． Future. B． Present. C． New. D． Former.‎ ‎30．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?‎ A． The result is of little value. B． The research has its limitations.‎ C． The participants are all adults. D． The influence of diet is included.‎ ‎31．What does the researchers suggest people do about drinking?‎ A． Make their own decisions.B． Reduce the amount they drink.‎ C． Have additional drinks occasionally.‎ D． Drink according to the countries’ guidelines.‎ D Forgiving someone who has hurt you or let you down is never an easy thing. Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably don’t think of it as being a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.‎ When cartoon book characters like the Incredible Hulk get angry, they change colours ‎ and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. That’s why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Good, says holding onto anger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.‎ The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression(抑郁). They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.‎ So it doesn’t matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as deep breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if it’s worth hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else.‎ Forgiveness does not mean that you simply accept what happened and say it’s OK. Instead, it’s a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past.‎ ‎32．The author of the passage tries to make his viewpoint clear__________.‎ A． by raising his own examples B． based on his own experience C． by mentioning some studies D． by mentioning some typical patients ‎33．The example of the cartoon book characters is taken in the passage to______.‎ A． support the viewpoint that anger and hatred harm physical and mental health B． introduce a famous expert C． let the reader know the different colours of cartoon faces D． show how to control one’s temper ‎34．The underlined phrase “holding on to” in this passage possibly means“________”.‎ A． removing B． Keeping up C． getting rid of D． learning about ‎35．The best title for this passage is probably__________.‎ A． Forgiveness B． Forgiveness is Good for Health C． A Secret to Keeping Health D． Anger is Bad for Health 第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ Four habits to help you succeed.‎ We all want to succeed, whether it is in losing weight or learning the guitar. For those who have tried and failed, success seems difficult to understand. 36．‎ ‎★Know your values.‎ Finding your values is in line with creating motivation. 37．.
