A couple of weeks later, the bartender decided to clear this out and inquired: “I do not want to pry, but could you explain, why do you order three beers all the time?” The man replied: “It seems strange, isn’t it? You see, my two brothers live abroad at the moment, one – in France and another – in Italy. We have made an agreement, that every time we go to pub each of us will order extra two beers and it will help keeping up the family bond ”.

Soon all the town have heard about the man’s answer and liked it a lot. The man became a local celebrity. Residents of the town were telling this story to newcomers or tourists and even invited them to that pub to look at Three Beer Man. However, one day the man came to pub and ordered only two beers, not three as usual. The bartender served him with bad feeling. All that evening the man ordered and drank only two beers. The very next day all the town was talking about this news, some people pray for the soul of one of the brothers, others quietly grieve. When the man came to pub the next time and ordered two beers again, the bartender asked him: “I would like to offer condolences

to you, due to the death of your dear brother”. The man considered this for a moment and then replied: “Oh, you may be surprised that I order only two beers now? Well, my two brothers are alive and well. It’s just because of my decision. I promised myself to give up drinking.”

C. gratitude

D. appreciation

C If a woman has an extra piece of cake, don’t blame it on greed, blame it on her brain.

Scientists have found that women’s brains react to food very differently -- and much more strongly -- than men’s. Academics found that decades of dieting pressure on women and advertising have programmed certain parts of the female brain to react strongly when faced with any kind of food. Men, on the other hand, are not usually as obsessive about what they eat. Dr. Rudolf Uher and his colleagues at the Institute of Psychiatry in King’s College London used brain scanning technology, known as functional magnetic resonance imaging (FMRI), to look at the brains of eighteen men and women. The volunteers were given images of food to look at, as well as food to taste. Their brain reactions were observed by the scientists. They found that the female brains reacted much more strongly than those of males. The same reaction did not happen when they were shown non-food images. The team believe this means women think more about food than men tend to. Dr. Uher said, “ This could be related to biological differences between men and women. But the more likely explanation is that women have a more complicated reaction to food because of social pressure.”

Professor Carey Cooper, psychology and health professor at Lancaster University, said, “ for centuries women have had a providing role -- preparing and cooking food for their families. And it's part of that role to make sure the food is safe. They will therefore be much more sensitive to food than men are, and I would not be surprised if that was now built into their DNA. If the female brain reacts to food because it historically has developed neural(神经的) pathways to do this, then food will be the way they express their stress. Food actually, is a comfort for women.”

But other experts have said that more research must be done before the results can be proved. American scientist Angelo del Parigi of the John B. Pierce Laboratory in New Haven, Connecticut, said “Looking at an FMRI alone cannot make sure whether the stronger reaction

in women is due to innate (天生的）differences or a learned process.”

28. Dr.Uher and his colleagues carried out the research by comparing

.

A. Volunteers’ reactions to food before and after meals

B. FMRI’s scanning result of scientists

C. women’s and men’s brain reactions to pictures of food

D. volunteers’ imagination on the taste of food

29.In Dr. Uher’s opinion, women react more strongly to food than men most probably because they are_________

A. born to do so due to biological reasons

B. influenced by advertisements

C. told to do so for a long time

D. forced by powerful social influences

30. According to Professor Carey Cooper, women

. A. are satisfied with preparing food for their families B. turn to food when they feel sad

C. accept their social role from the heart

D. are stressed because of food safety

31.What was Angelo del Parigi’s attitude towards the research results?

A. Curious B. Surprised.

C. Uninterested.

D. Doubtful. D Everyone has got two personalities----the one that is shown to the world and the other is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you are awake because you can control your behavior, but when you are asleep, sleeping position shows the real you .In a normal night ,of course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.

If you go to sleep on your back, you are a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or your new ideas. You don’t like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings. You are quite shy and aren’t very confident.

If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive person. You worry a lot and always easily get setup, you are very stubborn, but you aren’t very ambitious（有野心的）,you usually live for today not tomorrow. This means you enjoy having a good time.

If you sleep curled up, you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you are often very defensive. You are shy and you don’t normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You are easily hurt.

If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weakness. You are usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don’t often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people. 32. Which of the following might be the best title of this passage?

A. Your Sleeping Position and Your Personality

B. Sleeping and Your Health

C. The Secrets of Your Sleeping

D. Pay Attention to Your Sleeping Positions 33.If one goes to sleep on his stomach, he might

Consider how your first reaction is when you see a dwarf(侏儒)walking along the street. Do you think of him like an equal? Probable no. To the world, he is an "abnormal creature" belonged to a minority of people that include those who can't see, talk or hear. It may seem that they are born to be gossiped about and glare at. Always citizens are educated to take care and show respect for handicapped people. From the bottom of our hearts, do we sincerely treat they equally? Why do we still laugh when we watch unusually short clown in a circus show? The only reason is that, to us, they are funny and amusing. Then, we realize that the only result of education is that we learn it to hide our curiosity and our impolite towards those people.

My dear schoolmates, I am writing to the school newspaper to share with the perspectives on how to relax ourselves when faced with such heavy academic burdens.

Nowadays more and more middle school students are getting stressed in their studies. Many of us often feel tired both physically and psychologically, which will have a negative influence on our life and study. Therefore,it is very important for us to relax ourselves. Different students have different ways to relax.some students often watch humorous films.Some students enjoy listening to music.While others think doing sports is a good way and also you can chat your secret with good friends or teachers who are of great help to you.

As we study too long every day and have too much pressure,every student should choose proper ways to relax. As for me ,I like taking exercises because it can rest our brains and eyes. Besides,It can help improve our health.Therefore,I often play pingpong after class.It’s really helpful to both my health and my study.
