The bus screamed to a stop in Nazareth, Israel. Five Australian backpackers boarded and
struck up a conversation with me. They asked typical travelers’questions — where was I going
and why was I traveling alone? My plan was to travel with a friend of a friend, I explained, but
when I called her that morning, she didn’t pick up and I had no other way to reach her. My stomach
was in knots, but I decided to head out anyway, thinking I might run into her if I traveled to
Tiberius, where we had planned to go together.
“Why don’t you travel with us?”one of the backpackers offered. They were experienced
adventurers who would work for a few months, save, then travel for as long as they could. Their
current plan was to explore the Middle East and Europe in three months.
It seemed risky to travel with perfect strangers, but my instinct said yes. For the next two
weeks, I explored Israel with the backpackers and learned to trust my instincts in all types of new
and interesting situations. When they hooked a ride, I took the bus, but when they wanted to steal
into the King David Hotel’s swimming pool, I led the way. The world opened up to me because I
chose to travel alone. I joined complete strangers, who became close friends. Years later, one couple
from the backpacking group even flew from Sydney to Phoenix to be in my wedding. The trip was
such a special experience that it gave me confidence in all areas of my life. Since then, I’ve
backpacked alone across South Africa, sky-dived from 12, 000 feet in New Zealand and even
moved across the U.S. with no job lined up.
On my third day wandering in Israel with my new friends, I ran into the woman I was
supposed to meet. Though I was happy she was all right, I was grateful she hadn’t picked up the
phone.
24. According to the first paragraph, the author was .
A. nervous of meeting strangers B. anxious about the speedy bus
C. upset about the sudden change D. worried about her stomachache
25. Which of the following best describes the backpackers the author met?
A. Homeless but lighthearted. B. Warmhearted and
trustworthy. C. Jobless and poorly educated. D. Courageous but
disrespectful.
26. The author’s sixth sense told her that .
A. she would get along with the backpackers
B. it was risky to travel with perfect strangers
C. she ought to stay away from the backpackers
D. it could add exciting experience to her travel
27. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Some backpackers attended the author’s wedding years later.
B. The author gathered the courage to be a fulltime backpack traveler.
C. The woman missed the phone call with the purpose of traveling alone.
D. The author considered it the best decision of her life to travel on her own.

“Don’t tell anyone”. We hear these words when someone tells a secret to us. But it can be
hard to keep a secret. We often tend to“spill the beans”, even if we regret it later.
According to Asim Shah, professor in the Menninger Department of
Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Baylor College of Medicine, US, keeping a secret may
well“become a burden”. This is because people often have an“obsessive ( 强 迫 性 的 ) and
anxious urge to share it with someone”.
An earlier study, led by Anita E. Kelly, a scientist at the University of Notre Dame, US,
suggested that keeping a secret could cause stress. People entrusted with secrets can suffer from
depression, anxiety, and body aches, reported the Daily Mail.
But with secrets so often getting out, why do people share them at all? Shah explained that
people often feel that it will help them keep a person as a friend. Another reason people share
secrets is guilt over keeping it from someone close to them. A sense of distrust can develop when
people who are close do not share it with each other.“Keeping or sharing secrets often puts people
in a position of either gaining or losing the trust of someone.”according to Shah.
He added that talkative people could let secrets slip out. But this doesn’t mean that it is a good
idea only to share secrets with quiet people. A quiet person may be someone who keeps everything
inside. To tell such a person a secret may cause them stress, and make them talk about the secret.
Shah said that to judge whether to tell someone a secret, you’d better put yourself in their
高

英
语
position. Think about how you would feel to be told that you mustn’t give the information away.
Shah also recommended that if you accidentally give up someone’s secret you should come clean
about it. Let the person know that their secret isn’t so secret anymore.
28. The underlined phrase“spill the bean”is closest in meaning to .
A. keep a secret B. let out a secret
C. suffer from stress D. talk about other people’s private lives
29. According to Kelly, a person who is entrusted with a secret .
A. should keep everything inside
B. tends to lose the trust of someone
C. often has an anxious desire to share it with others
D. may have to put up with physical or psychological problems
30. What can we learn from the
passage?
A. Quiet people are more likely to keep the secrets to themselves.
B. Sharing secrets helps establish friendship or get over the sense of guilt.
C. It’s better to inform others of the chances of your leaking secrets beforehand.
D. Putting yourself in others’shoes helps realize the difficulty of keeping secrets.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards the phenomenon of sharing secrets?
A. Supportive. B. Disapproving. C. Objective. D. Uncaring.
D
Scientists, psychologists and English academics at Liverpool University have
found that reading the works of the classical writers like Shakespeare and Wordsworth has a great
effect on the mind, catches the reader’s attention and triggers moments of self-examination.
Using a special machine, they monitored the brain activity of 30 volunteers as they read works
by William Shakespeare, William Wordsworth, T.S. Eliot and others.
In the first part of the research, the brain activity of 30 volunteers was monitored as they read
passages from Shakespeare’s plays, including King Lear, Othello, Coriolanus and Macbeth, and
again as they read the text rewritten in a simpler form or modern language.
While reading the common texts, normal levels of electrical activity were shown in their
brains. When they read the works of Shakespeare, however, the levels of activity jumped because
高

of his use of words which were unfamiliar to them. The result of the test showed that the more
challenging passages cause a greater degree of electrical activity in the brain than the common ones.
Scientists went on to study the brain activity as it responded to each word and recorded how it
lit up as the readers came across unusual words, surprising phrases or difficult sentences in the
classical works. As a result, this lightening up process of the mind lasted longer than that when
volunteers read common texts, encouraging further reading.
The research also found that reading poetry especially increases activity in
the right hemisphere ( 半 球) of the brain, an area connected with“autobiographical memory”,
driving the
readers to think carefully about their own experiences based on what they have read. The academics
said this meant the classical works of literature are more useful than self-help books.
Philip Davis, an English professor who has worked on the study in the university’s magnetic
resonance center, announced this week:“Classical literature acts like a rocket-booster to the brain,
which provides extra power for the brain. You may never imagine how powerful it is. The research
shows such kind of literature can create new thoughts and connections in the young and the old.”
32. The underlined word“triggers”in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to“ ”.
A. stops B. keeps C. interrupts D. causes
33. Which of the following is NOT true about reading classical literature?
A. It’s helpful for readers to come up with new ideas.
B. It’s an activity that is suitable for people of all ages.
C. It makes readers’electrical activity of brain return to normal.
D. It makes readers’brain more active than reading common texts.
34. From the research, we can learn that .
A. poetry increases left-brain activity more than other literary forms
B. the readers prefer Shakespeare’s works to the other writers’works
C. the words of classical works make it hard for volunteers to read further
D. reading classical works produces a good and long-lasting effect on the mind
35. What does the author mainly tell us in this passage?
A. Classical works help the brain develop better.
B. Poetry is useful for developing people’s brain.
C. Common books are unpopular anymore.
D. Shakespeare’s plays are worth reading.

It’s easy to make a fitness decision on New Year’s Eve. 36 According to a recent
study,
60 percent of people give up on their decision by February. However, you can increase your
chances of success with these stick-with-it strategies (策略).
●Start by asking yourself,“Why?”
A fitness decision is rarely about fitness. It’s important to ask yourself why this fitness
decision is important to you on a deeper level. 37 Discover exactly what that something is
and use it to push yourself to keep going when you feel like giving up.
● 38
You’re far more likely to stick to your goal if you make it as specific as possible. Determine
exactly what you’re going to do and when you’re going to achieve it. Deadline are necessary, if
you’re serious about making your fitness decision stick.
● Start small and build motivation.
39 Instead, break your fitness goal into a series of smaller challenges, and celebrate
every victory along the way. Fitness resolution is hard. Focus on the progress you’re making, no
matter how small it seems.
● Focus on fun.
When it comes to making a long-term change, fun is fundamental. It’s hard to consistently
force yourself to do something you hate. 40 Listen to your favorite music at the gym.
Do
everything you can to make your physical activity enjoyable, because that’s the only way you’re
going to want to keep doing it.
A. What’s motivating you to make a change?
B. So, if you hate running, try cycling
instead.
C. New Year’s Eve is a great opportunity to have fun.
D. Be specific about what you want to accomplish and set a deadline.
E. Write down your fitness decision and share it with your family and friends.
F. If you try to change too much too quickly, you’re setting yourself up for failure.
G. The challenge lies in putting it into practice and sticking with it for the long-term.

About a month after this 52 with my father, I received a gift in the mail from a friend
