Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child's acquisition of each new skill: the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning , he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.

Parents greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be strict in money matters. Others are severe over times of coming home at night or punctuality for meals. In general, the controls imposed the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child's own happiness.

As regards the development of standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and it the next day is no foundation for morality. Also, parents should realize that "example is better than precept". If they are not sincere and do not practise what they preach (说教), their children may grow confused, and insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.

A sudden of a marked difference between their parents' principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.

III. Reading Comprehension

Section A

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with

In modern society loneliness can be seen as a social phenomenon and people can experience loneliness for many reasons. It is a very common, though normally temporary, of a breakup, divorce, or loss of any important long-term relationship. In these cases, loneliness may result both from the loss of a specific person and from the withdrawal from social circles.The loss of a significant person in one's life will typically initiate a(n) response; in this situation, one might feel lonely, even while in the company of others.

Loneliness may also result from any socially disruptive (破裂的) event, such as moving from one's home town into communities leading to homesickness. Loneliness can also occur in places with low population densities in which there are comparatively few people to

There are many different ways used to loneliness. The first step that most doctors recommend to patients is therapy. Short term therapy typically occurs over a period of ten to twenty weeks. During therapy, emphasis is put on understanding the cause of the problem, the negative thoughts, feelings, and attitudes resulting from the problem, and exploring ways to help the patient feel connected. Some doctors also recommend therapy as a means to connect with other sufferers and establish a support system. It may take several attempts before a suitable anti-depressant medication is found. Some patients may also develop a resistance to a certain type of medication and need to periodically.

Another treatment is animal-assisted therapy. Studies and surveys indicate that the presence of animal companions such as dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs can feelings of loneliness or depression among some sufferers. Beyond the companionship the animal itself provides there may also be increased opportunities for with other pet owners. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention there are a number of other health benefits associated with pet ownership, such as lowered blood pressure. In addition, some other alternative approaches may include exercise, dieting, etc, which many patients find have a effect on relieving symptoms.

Nevertheless, loneliness can sometimes play an important role in the process. In some people, temporary or prolonged loneliness can lead to notable artistic and creative expression, for example, as was the case with poet Emily Dickinson, and numerous musicians.

B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

Do you often feel tried in the morning even though you’ve been in bed for seven or eight hours the night before? Like many people, you are not sleeping as much as you think you are. _51_, your sleep efficiency is not that good.

Sleep experts _52_ “sleep efficiency” as the percentage of time that you are actually sleeping.

According to explanatory journalism website Vox.com, the science of sleep efficiency is still young. There is no _53_ number for efficiency that’s been proven as linked to poor health. However, according to a New York Times report about sleep _54_, some experts make a rough estimate of 85 percent or above as a decent place to be.

Besides avoiding caffeine intake after lunch and _55_ physical exercise before bed, here are more tips for improving sleep efficiency.

Avoid blue light at night

Short wavelength blue light, _56_ by the sun and by the screens of computers, iPads and smartphones, stops production of the sleep-stimulating hormone melatonin (褪黑激素) and makes you feel more _57_. Blue light tells your brain it’s daytime. Experts suggest turning off your computers and smartphones one hour or at least 30 minutes before bed.

Keep a _59_ sleep schedule

Go to bed and wake up at the same time, or _60_ the same time, every day. Avoid excessive sleeping on the weekend. Consistency is the key to a good night’s sleep, especially when it comes to waking up.

Roughly an hour before you wake, hormone levels increase gradually (along with your body temperature and blood pressure), _62_ you to become more alert.

Take naps

If you aren’t getting enough sleep at night, you’re likely going to feel _64_ to sleep in the afternoon. When this happens, you’re better off taking a short nap (less than 30 minutes) than turning to caffeine or strong tea to keep you awake. A short nap will give you the rest you need to _65_ the rest of the afternoon, and you’ll sleep much better in the evening than if you drink caffeine or take a long afternoon nap.

Section B

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

（A）

You will never stay the same person.

Several recent research studies show a person’s personality naturally changes over time in response to life events and most people tend to improve their personalities as they mature.

“Personality means a characteristic pattern of thinking, feeling and behaving that is consistent over time and across situations,” says Christopher Soto, a research psychologist at Colby College in Maine, US., who thinks that personality is about 50 percent innate and 50 percent learned.

Psychologists usually use the Big Five personality model——the human personality can be divided into five broad categories—openness, conscientiousness, agreeableness, neuroticism（神经质）and extroversion（外向）.

Some personality types are more successful than others. Soto says people who are more conscientious tend to do better in the workplace and school. People who score high on agreeableness and low on neuroticism tend to have more satisfying and stable relationships. Extroverts do better in social and entrepreneurial （创业）occupations.

According to Soto, even small changes in a person’s personality can produce important effects on relationships, career, health and happiness. But change takes time.

“You start by changing the behavior and then, if you can maintain that new behavior over time, it gets cultivated,” Soto says.

Where do you start? “First, we have to recognize which pieces of our personality affct us,” says Richard Levak, a well-known personality expert. “If I am always getting fired because I get into arguments with co-workers and always blame others, then I have to realize that I have to change something,” he says.

Don’t set your expectation too high. Be patient. Warren Kennaugh, a behavioral strategist in Sydney, Australia, says it’s important to start small. Identify a first step and then practice it without worrying about the primary results. “It’s like learning to kick a football, you focus on the steps, not whether it goes in the goal,” The Wall Street Journal quoted him as saying.

You should also let the people close to you know what you’re doing. “Not only can they be supportive,” Kennaugh says, “but a change for you can also mean a change for them—one they may not want or be ready for, if they aren’t told beforehand.”

66. The word “innate” (paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to _________________.

A. instructive B. inborn C. indifferent D. informative

67. If Steve is a successful sales manager, who always gets well along with others, he

probably has the personality model of _____________.

A. agreeableness and extroversion B. conscientiousness and neuroticism]

C. agreeableness and neuroticism D. openness and neuroticism

68. We can learn from the passage that both Soto and Kennaugh think that _________

A. adequate time and patience are needed in developing new personalities

B. when in trouble, one always needs to reflect on his own behaviors

C. one must begin with small things to cultivate new personalities

D. we are often not sure of the impact of our personalities on our life

69. What is this passage mainly about?

A. People tend to be changeable as they mature.

B. We can easily alter our personalities in a short time

C. Only those of great patience can change their personalities

D. We can our personalities with some proper strategies.
