The Mind-Body Connections
Norman Cousins was a famous American magazine editor. In 1964,he returned from an overseas trip
and then became very ill.In the hospital,he had a terrible pain and couldn't move his body.Doctors told
him he had a serious disease called ankylosing spondylitis（强直性脊柱炎）and said he had only 1 chance in
500 of surviving. They gave him powerful drugs,but his condition only got worse.
Cousins had read about a theory that negative emotions can harm your health.He believed that positive
emotions were good for one's health,and he decided to try an experiment.He would fill his days with good
feelings and laughter and see if that might improve his condition.
He left the hospital and moved into a hotel room.There,he got a large supply of funny TV programs and
copies of old Marx Brothers movies and cartoons.He also hired a nurse to read funny stories to him.His plan
was to spend the whole day laughing and thinking about happy things.On his first night in the hotel,Cousins
found that laughing at the movies helped his body produce chemicals that reduced pain.For the first time in
weeks,he could sleep comfortably for a few hours.Every time the pain came back,he watched another
funny movie and laughed until he felt better.
Over time,Cousins was able to measure changes in his body with blood tests.He found that the harmful
chemicals in his body decreased at least 5 percent every time he watched a funny movie.After a short time,
he was able to stop taking all of his medications.Finally his condition improved so much that he could go
back to work.
Cousins later wrote a book about how laughter and happiness helped him to survive a deadly illness.
Many people didn't believe his story and said that his doctors were wrong about his disease.But since then,
research has found that emotions do have a strong effect on physical health,and experiments found that
laughter can help to reduce pain.Scientists today are working to understand the ways that our minds affect
our bodies.Cousins spent a lot of time laughing every day.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：A解析：由文章第一段第二句“In 1 964 , he returned from an overseas trip and then became very ill.”可知，Norman Cousins是在一次海外旅行归来之后才生病的，故选B。
由文章第一段倒数第二句中“Doctors told him…he had only 1 chance in 500 of survi-ving.”可知，医生告诉Norman Cousins，他只有1/500的可能生还，这也就意味着他极有可能会 死，故选A。
由文章第一段的最后一句话“They gave him powerful drugs , but his condition only got worse.”可知，医生开的药只让他的情况变得更加糟糕，通过下文的叙述可知，Norman Cousins 的病是经愉悦心情的影响而好转的，故选B。

由文章第三段的内容可知，Norman Cousins的计划是花上一整天的时间大笑，想象愉快 的事情；他找很多有趣的电视节目和许多喜剧电影和卡通作品，甚至还请了一位护士给他读滑 稽故事。因此他一天中大部分时间在笑声中度过，故选A。

Mau Piailug,Ocean Navigator
Mau sailed from Hawaii to Tahiti using traditional methods.
In early 1976,Mau Piailug,a fisherman,led an expedition in which he sailed a tradi-tional Polynesian boat across 2,500 miles of ocean from Hawaii to Tahiti.The Polynesian Voyaging Society had organised the expedition.Its purpose was to find out if seafarers（海员） in the distant past could have found their way from one island to the other without naviga-tional instruments,or whether the islands had been populated by accident.At the time,Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and the sea.
He had never before sailed to Tahiti,which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the wind and the sea behave around islands,so he was confident he could find his way.The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.
His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.He showed him pools of water on the beach to teach him how the behaviour of the waves and wind changed in different place.Later,Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.Each stone was laid out in the sand to represent a star.
The voyage proved that Hawaii's first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea and the stars.Mau himself became a keen teacher,passing on his traditional secrets to people of other cultures so that his knowledge would not be lost.He explained the positions of the stars to his students,but he allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to remember everything as he had done.Mau used stones to memorise where the stars were situated in the sky.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：A解析：题干意为“玛乌航行的时候，他有独特的航行技术。”关键词是unique navi-gational skills。依据此关键词组，可在文中第一段最后一句找到相关叙述：“At the time, Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and the sea.”（在那时，玛乌是在世的人中唯一一个仅仅通过观察星星、风和海洋来远航的人。）由此可知，当时来说，玛乌的航行技术的确是独特的，故此题说法为“正确”的。
题干意为“玛乌很熟悉塔希提岛周围的海洋。”关键词是Tahiti。依据此关键词，可在文中第二段前两句找到相关叙述：“He had never before sailed to Tahiti, which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the wind and the sea behave around islands, so he was confident he could find his way.”（他从来没有航行到过塔希提岛，从塔希提岛到南方是一段很长的路程。然而他知道岛周围的风和海洋是怎么活动的，所以他自信可以找到路。）由此可知，虽然玛乌没有去过这个岛，但是他很熟悉海洋，故此题说法是“正确”的。
题干意为“玛乌买不起罗盘和图表。”关键词是compass和charts。依据关键词，可在文中第二段最后一句找到相关叙述：“The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.”（这次航行要花费他和船员们一个月的时间，而且他们航行的时候没有罗盘和图表。）由此可知，他们航行确实用不到罗盘和图表，但是文中并没提到玛乌买不起这些工具，故此说法为“未提及”的。
题干意为“玛乌从祖父那里学到了航海技术。”关键词是grandfather。依据此关健词，可在文中第三段第一句找到相关叙述：“His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.”（当他还很小的时候，他的祖父就开始教他航海。）故此题说法为“正确”的。
题干意为“玛乌用石头记忆天空中星星的位置。”关键词是stones和stars。 依据关键词，可在文中第三段倒数第二句找到相关叙述：“Later, Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.”（之后，玛乌用一圈石头来记忆星星的位置。）故此题说法是“正确”的。
题干意为“夏威夷最早的居民能读写。”关键词是first inhabitants of Ha-waii。依据关键词可在文中最后一段第一句找到相关叙述：“The voyage proved that Hawaii's first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea and the stars.”（此次航行证明，夏威夷最早的居民是乘小船来到这里的，并通过观察海洋和星空来航行。）文中的 reading是观察的意思，除此之外并没有提到这些最早的居民会不会读写，故此说法是“未提及”的。
题干意为“玛乌希望自己的学生们能立刻记住星星的位置。”关键词是 students。依据此关键词，可在文中最后一句找到相关叙述：“He explained the positions of the stars to his students,but he allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to remember everything as he had done.”（他向学生们解释星星的位置， 但他允许学生把知识点写下来，因为他知道他们不可能像他一样记住所有东西。）故此题说法为“错误”的。 -

Mau Piailug,Ocean Navigator
Mau sailed from Hawaii to Tahiti using traditional methods.
In early 1976,Mau Piailug,a fisherman,led an expedition in which he sailed a tradi-tional Polynesian boat across 2,500 miles of ocean from Hawaii to Tahiti.The Polynesian Voyaging Society had organised the expedition.Its purpose was to find out if seafarers（海员） in the distant past could have found their way from one island to the other without naviga-tional instruments,or whether the islands had been populated by accident.At the time,Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and the sea.
He had never before sailed to Tahiti,which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the wind and the sea behave around islands,so he was confident he could find his way.The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.
His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.He showed him pools of water on the beach to teach him how the behaviour of the waves and wind changed in different place.Later,Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.Each stone was laid out in the sand to represent a star.
The voyage proved that Hawaii's first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea and the stars.Mau himself became a keen teacher,passing on his traditional secrets to people of other cultures so that his knowledge would not be lost.He explained the positions of the stars to his students,but he allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to remember everything as he had done.At the time of his voyage,Mau had unique navigational skills.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：A解析：题干意为“玛乌航行的时候，他有独特的航行技术。”关键词是unique navi-gational skills。依据此关键词组，可在文中第一段最后一句找到相关叙述：“At the time, Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and the sea.”（在那时，玛乌是在世的人中唯一一个仅仅通过观察星星、风和海洋来远航的人。）由此可知，当时来说，玛乌的航行技术的确是独特的，故此题说法为“正确”的。
题干意为“玛乌很熟悉塔希提岛周围的海洋。”关键词是Tahiti。依据此关键词，可在文中第二段前两句找到相关叙述：“He had never before sailed to Tahiti, which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the wind and the sea behave around islands, so he was confident he could find his way.”（他从来没有航行到过塔希提岛，从塔希提岛到南方是一段很长的路程。然而他知道岛周围的风和海洋是怎么活动的，所以他自信可以找到路。）由此可知，虽然玛乌没有去过这个岛，但是他很熟悉海洋，故此题说法是“正确”的。
题干意为“玛乌买不起罗盘和图表。”关键词是compass和charts。依据关键词，可在文中第二段最后一句找到相关叙述：“The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.”（这次航行要花费他和船员们一个月的时间，而且他们航行的时候没有罗盘和图表。）由此可知，他们航行确实用不到罗盘和图表，但是文中并没提到玛乌买不起这些工具，故此说法为“未提及”的。
题干意为“玛乌从祖父那里学到了航海技术。”关键词是grandfather。依据此关健词，可在文中第三段第一句找到相关叙述：“His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.”（当他还很小的时候，他的祖父就开始教他航海。）故此题说法为“正确”的。
题干意为“玛乌用石头记忆天空中星星的位置。”关键词是stones和stars。 依据关键词，可在文中第三段倒数第二句找到相关叙述：“Later, Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.”（之后，玛乌用一圈石头来记忆星星的位置。）故此题说法是“正确”的。

Finding a Job
At sixteen Ron Mackie might have stayed at school,but the future called to him excitedly.“Get out of the classroom into a job,”it said,and Ron obeyed.His father,supporting the dcci-sion,found a place for him in a supermarket.“You're lucky,Ron,”he said.“For every boy with a job these days,there's a dozen without.” So Ron joined the working world at twenty pounds a week.
For a year he spent his days filling shelves with tins of food.By the end of that time he was looking back on his school days as a time of great variety and satisfaction.He searched for an in-terest in his work,with little success.
One fine day instead of going to work Ron got a lift on a lorry going south.With nine pounds in his pocket,a full heart and a great longing for the sea,he set out to make a better way for him-self. That evening,in Bournemouth,he had a sandwich and a drink in a cafe run by an elderly man and his wife.Before he had finished the sandwich,the woman had taken him on for the rest of the summer,at twenty pounds a week,a room upstairs and three meals a day.The ease and speed of it rather took Ron's breath away.At quiet times Ron had to check the old man's arithme- tic in the records of the business.
At the end of the season,he stayed on the coast. He was again surprised how straightforward it was for a boy of seventeen to make a living.He worked in shops mostly,but once he took a job in a hotel for three weeks.Late in October he was taken on by the sick manager of a shoe shop. Ron soon found himself in charge there;he was the only one who could keep the books.Ron was able to take over the shoe shop because______.
A: he got on well with the manager there
B: he knew how to keep the accounts of the business
C: he had had experience of selling books
D: he was young and strong答案：B解析：本文第一段的第一句说到：罗恩（Ron）感到未来在向他召唤：“走出教室，找个工作”，于是他们遵从了这一召唤。因此我们可以了解到是他自己想要开始工作。
根据本文第一段，他的父亲支持这一决定，并帮助罗恩找到了一份工作。由此我们对父亲的态度是很明确的。
本文第二段提到罗恩对学校生活的留恋，想要提高自己对目前工作的兴趣未果。由此可以判断出他认为超市的工作枯燥(dull) 。
第三段说罗恩“longing for the sea”（向往大海），因此他是想在海边找个工作的。应注意C选项中的“unwell”指身体不舒服、有病，因而不选。
根据上下文判断词汇含义。此题关键在于对“keep the books”的理解，这里指罗恩负责打理鞋店的生意，因为只有他懂得如何管理账目。而选项B中的accounts即是账目的意思。 -
