When Alok and I met in 1984, he was attracted by my passionate love of children, dogs, and poetry. I was drawn to his intelligence and his broad, comforting shoulders. Our marriage was very happy, and our sons, Viraj, an accountant, and Anurag, a lawyer, were warm, loving, and blessed with both a high level of integrity and a wicked sense of humour. It was as if I had everything I had wished for. When people said, “Life is not perfect,” I used to think, “Oh, but it very nearly is.”
But one Saturday night everything became different. Alok and I were about to leave our flat in Delhi for a party when all of a sudden he just passed away. It was a fatal cerebral stroke(脑中风), instantaneous(猝发的)and without warning.
I was terrified, but felt I owed it to myself, to Alok, and to the boys to rise above the loss and use the strength our love had given me to go forward. I also had to deal with some pressing issues. Where would I live? Our home was a company-owned flat, and most of the facilities we'd enjoyed, like the club, medical coverage, even the phone, came with his job.
I made the decision to try and do as much as I could on my own, without asking for, or expecting, other people to help me. As a journalist, I had been privileged to share some truly exceptional life stories. I now had to handle my own life story, and accept change with as much courage as I could muster.
The journey ahead needed new skills. I finally found the right job, and today I am working in corporate communications. My life now is very different from what it was earlier. I understand that we are all given an inner strength, and that we truly grow up, regardless of age, when we learn to stand alone. I hope to start writing again. I would also like to give back to society, to work on a cause that I care deeply about, which is the focus of my book: to help others achieve better work-life options so that a new generation of young people, and indeed a new generation of old people, can receive the support they need.

How do companies use images in advertisements to appeal to consumers? The purpose of advertisements is to simply sell products to potential buyers. But with so much competition among companies to push their items, how do they beat the other competitors?
They use different methods of advertising, such as billboards, commercials, and print ads that appear in magazines or newspapers. These images all convey messages to the consumers without even the use of words. People can understand what an ad is saying by just looking at it.
Reading through a magazine, one is likely to see numerous advertisements trying to sell a lot of products, ranging from shoes to perfumes to computers. As they try to market their goods, businesses use different types of advertising techniques. They play around with colors and images that are visually stimulating (刺激的) in an attempt to promote their goods. Bright colors stand out really well, drawing the viewers' attention and capturing their interest.
In addition, images used by clothing companies generally contain physically attractive models to sell their clothes because the businesses are proposing that the consumers can look just as good as the models if they buy the same clothes. The other day, I saw an ad in a magazine showing a very thin, charming model wearing a US$200 swimsuit. The ad was basically screaming, “Buy this and you will look like me!” Companies can push expensive items to their consumers by showing visually desirable people in their ads, stimulating the interest of buyers. These are the kinds of images displayed everywhere we look and through all aspects of marketing.
We know about the different methods used in advertisements to get us to buy certain products, but whether or not we give in to them is the big question.
(B)28. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By explaining the background. B. By asking some questions.
C. By giving a conclusion. D. By listing some examples.
【解析】推理判断题。作者在第一段提出两个问题来引起读者对主题的关注,所以B正确。
(D)29. What is NOT the effect of bright colors?
A. Standing out really well. B. Drawing the viewers' attention.
C. Capturing the viewers' interest. D. Highlighting the product's quality.
【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段“Bright colors stand out really well, drawing the viewers' attention and capturing their interest.”可以轻而易举获得答案。
(A)30. Why do clothing companies use attractive models to sell their clothes?
A. Consumers might think they can look as good as the models if they buy the same clothes.
B. The clothes look more expensive when they are worn by models.
C. The clothes on the models can be sold for more money.
D. This kind of advertising is cheaper than other means.
【解析】细节理解题。根据第四段“...because the businesses are proposing that the consumers can look just as good as the models if they buy the same clothes.”可知A正确。
(C)31. What is the text mainly about?
A. It is hard for consumers not to be influenced by ads.
B. It is easy to run a good advertising business.
C. How companies make their ads attractive to consumers.
D. How much companies pay for their ads.

D
Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) needs to prove its worth through rigorous clinical trials, according to the head of one of China's largest herbal remedy companies, as a contentious(有争议的) new law to boost the $40bn sector comes into effect.
Traditional Chinese Medicine is estimated by analysts to account for a third of sales in China's $117bn pharmaceutical(药学) market, the world's second largest. But most of those sales are of relatively cheap over-the-counter drugs, with many Chinese hospital doctors unwilling to prescribe TCM remedies(救济方法) because of the lack of evidence for their effectiveness.
China's first law promising equal status for TCM and western medicine in the country's state-dominated healthcare system comes into effect this weekend. Provisions include encouragement for hospitals to set up TCM centres, and a licensing system for practitioners(从业者). “This law is very important for securing the status of TCM,” said Wu Yiling, chairman of Yiling Pharmaceutical, a company that makes herbal remedies based on traditional recipes in the northern province of Hebei.
Listed in Shenzhen, Wu Yiling has a market capitalization of RMB 20.7bn ($3bn). Mr Wu, the son of a herbal practitioner, controls a family fortune of $1.6bn, according to the Hurun Rich List.
Mr Wu is both a supporter of the nature of Qi — the mystical energy force that provides the basis for much of TCM theory — and the clinical trials vital to western pharmaceutical companies. “TCM needs to develop using modern research methods,” he said.
For instance, researchers from Peking and Cardiff Universities tested the health benefits of Yiling's herbal medicine Yangzheng Xiaoji, publishing papers in the International Journal of Oncology that showed the drug can slow the growth of cancer tumours. “The theory and recipe is TCM, but in practice the evaluation of our medicines is carried out according to western evidence-based methods,” Mr Wu said.
Analysts say such tests can help gain support from doubtful hospital doctors and boost prescriptions. “Doctors need strong evidence that drugs definitely work,” said Serena Shao, healthcare analyst at brokerage CLSA. “Some of these companies are currently doing clinical trials, and getting proof that their drugs have the same efficacy (功效) as chemical drugs. That's the way to go,” she added.
The TCM law has been greeted with doubt from China's western-schooled medical establishment, which points to a lack of rigorous training for TCM doctors, and a recent series of shocking events involving herbal injections believed to have been harmful. “Officials will try and encourage TCM, but also will be very cautious about what kinds of TCM they use in hospitals,” added Ms Shao.
(D)32. Why does Traditional Chinese Medicine need to prove its worth through rigorous clinical trials?
A. Because Chinese government wants to boost the law of Chinese medicine.
B. Because Chinese medicine market is the world's second largest one.
C. Because Chinese medicine is all cheap over-the-counter drugs.
D. Because doctors are unwilling to prescribe TCM remedies lacking evidence of effectiveness.
【解析】 细节理解题。文章第一句是题干信息,从第二段最后可以得到答案,故D正确。
(B)33. Which words can be used to replace the underlined word “Provisions” in the third paragraph?
A. Ways of supplying. B. Articles of law.
C. Methods of motivation. D. Approaches to inspiring.
【解析】词义推测题。由第三段China's first law promising equal status for TCM and western medicine in the country's state-dominated healthcare system comes into effect this weekend.和This law is very important for securing the status of TCM,可知划线的词是法律条款的含义,故B正确。
(B)34. According to the passage, we can learn that Mr Wu Yiling ________.
A. has a company in Shenzhen that has a market capitalization of $3bn
B. lets his company evaluate herbal medicines with western evidence-based methods
C. is a herbal practitioner, controlling a family fortune
D. thinks that if we need to develop TCM, we should use Chinese traditional research methods
【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段Yiling Pharmaceutical, a company that makes herbal remedies based on traditional recipes in the northern province of Hebei.可知A错误; 根据第四段Mr Wu, the son of a herbal practitioner,可知C错误;根据第五段“TCM needs to develop using modern research methods,” he said.可知D错误;根据第六段“The theory and recipe is TCM, but in practice the evaluation of our medicines is carried out according to western evidence-based methods,” Mr Wu said.可知B正确。
(A)35. According to the last two paragraphs, we infer that ________.
A. TCM hasn't been recognized in the western medicine
B. western doctors deny the effectiveness of TCM
C. there is a lack of rigorous training for TCM doctors
D. a recent series of shocking events has destroyed Chinese medicine
【解析】推理判断题。由最后一段第一句话The TCM law has been greeted with doubt from China's western-schooled medical establishment可以推断A正确。B文章未提及,C选项是直接信息,D是错误信息。

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
36.__F__ Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell.37.__B__ They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.

If it is, they say, “ 40.__E__ Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”

M: Hello, Lucy. This is Sam. Look, I'm on my way to the airport. Could you do something for me? I forgot a file in the office. It's on my desk. Can you see it?
W: Yes. It's here.
M: Good. Could you send it to me by overnight delivery to the Hilton Hotel in Sydney?

M: In your latest movie, you played a role of a painter. How do you choose your roles?
W: I usually do a movie because there is one or two scenes I really want to do, scenes that are different and unpredictable. I think it's important to do movies that make people think.
M: If you were not acting, what would you do?
W: I would want to write movie scripts. But if I had to have a regular job to support myself, I couldn't imagine working anywhere else but on a movie set.
M: What do you mean?
W: I mean, I would like to work in props, costumes, or the other department, something like that.
M: What about your real life hobbies?
W: Well, I read a lot of books, and I write, too.

M: What are you reading?
W: An article about Amazon Tree Houses.
M: Wow, people in the Amazon live in trees?
W: That's not what I am talking about. Amazon Tree Houses is a company that specializes in the design and construction of tree houses.
M: So? Why do you care?
W: Well, I'm thinking about opening a tree house hotel. I have a feeling that tree houses will be really popular in the future.
M: I bet you're going to throw that idea away within one week. It is impossible.
W: Why?
M: You don't have enough money to buy yourself a small apartment, let alone tree houses.
W: I'm going to work harder.
M: Sweetie, it's good to have a dream, but not so good to have an unrealistic one.

M: Hello, this is Tom speaking. Is that Mrs. Green?
W: Yes. Hello, Tom. We haven't seen each other since your graduation. I often think of you and your former classmates. You were one of my favorite students. How are you getting along at college?
M: Very well. I love my life here, and I am involved in many activities. We are planning to set up a new arts and literature center here. The center is going to have three sections: a theater and dance studio, a literature room, and an exhibition gallery. I need your help because I have no idea what we should have in the literature room. Could you please give me some suggestions?
W: Certainly. You should have works by famous writers like Jane Austen, Shakespeare, and Mark Twain, but you should also have some newer books like Harry Potter. Books of poetry are necessary, too. I also suggest that you set up a readers' club.
M: That's a good idea. I'll make a list of the books and email it to you. Please add some others to the list if you have time.
W: Okay, I will.
M: Thank you very much.

The first bicycle appeared in France in the 1790s. It was a little wooden horse with a fixed front wheel. Because the wheel was fixed, it could not be turned right or left. The only way it could be controlled was by the rider pushing against the ground with his or her feet. In 1817, a German replaced the fixed front wheel with one that could be turned. Now the wooden horse could be directed right or left. The rider still needed to push it with his or her feet on the ground. In 1839, a Scottish MacMillan designed the first bicycle—like machine with foot board and rode it for 40 miles in only 5 hours. The bicycle got more comfortable in 1869 when rubber tires were introduced. Around the same time, the front wheels began to grow larger while the back wheels got smaller. During the 1880s, bicycles enjoyed a sudden growth in popularity. However, they weren't very safe. Sitting high up towards the front of the bicycle and traveling very fast, the rider could be easily thrown over the front wheel if the bicycle hit a small stone. Fortunately, the “safety bicycle” was invented in 1884. The safety bicycle had equal-sized wheels and tires with air in them. And more improvements quickly followed. No doubt there will be further improvements in design and materials in the future.
