Many of us feel somehow nervously whenever we are taking an important exam. Nervousness not only does harm to students’ health but disturb their studies. So it’s necessary for our students to learn to relax. I think it’s very important to have a right attitude for exams. Exams are only a means of checking how we have learned. Therefore, there is no need to worry too much the results of the exams. Before an exam, make a scientific study plan and keeping a peaceful mind must help to reduce the pressure from the exam. We can also relax ourselves by doing sports and listening to music. Beside, enough sleep and a balanced diet will work as well.
Follow my advice and so you will enjoy your school life.
With the teacher’s help, the tough passage seemed easier .

Professional footballers have worryingly poor teeth that could be affecting their
performance on the football ground, say dentists. Their study on players at eight clubs in
England and Wales, in the British Journal o f Sports Medicine, showed nearly 4 0ut of 10
had cavities (蛀牙) and that athletes often had worse teeth than the general population.
Regularly taking sugary foods is one possible explanation.
The dentists, from the International Centre for Evidence-Based Oral Health at
University College London, examined 187 players' sets of teeth. They found 53% had
dental erosion (腐蚀), 45% were bothered by the state of their teeth and 7% said it
affected their ability to train or play. Around 40% had cavities, compared with 30% of
people of a similar age in the general population.
Prof Ian Needleman, one of the researchers, said: "These are individuals who
otherwise invest so much in themselves so it’s a surprising finding.
"There are two main groups - some have a catastrophic effect, they have very
serious disease that stops them in their tracks and they cannot play or train.
"There Il be others experiencing pain affecting sleep or sensitivity every time they take
a drink. "
At this level of athlete, even small differences can be quite telling.
Nutrition is one of the primary suspects with having too many sugary or acidic foods
during training potentially accounting for cavities and erosion. A lot of air in the mouth
during exercise can also dry it out so there is less protection.
While these findings are worrying, clubs are attaching greater importance to dental
health and educating their players. According to Stijin Vandenbroucke, head of medicine
and sports science at West Ham United, oral health is an area where many athletes have
greater problems than the general population and there are clear benefits of oral disease
prevention for athletes and clubs.
32.What does the passage tell us about professional footballers teeth?
A. Nearly 4 out of 10 players in the UK suffer from toothaches.
B. They have been invested a great deal by individual players.
C. Many players' poor teeth bother their career and daily life.
D. British footballers teeth are examined regularly.
33.What mainly results in professional footballers' poor teeth?
A. Experiencing too much training.
B. Eating food with too much sugar.
C. Breathing in lots of air during exercise.
D. Having little education of oral disease prevention.
34. These findings are worrying clubs because____.
A. footballers aren’t willing to give up sugary or acidic food
B. they've spent much on their players' oral disease prevention
C. footballers have more serious tooth problems than the public
D. players' oral disease may lead to bad performance in games
35.This passage is most probably taken from____.

Once upon a time, there was a bird made of stone. She was a beautiful creature, and she was also magic. She lived near the entrance 61 a picturesque forest between two mountains. The bird was so heavy 62 she had to walk along the ground.
Despite this, she enjoyed looking up at the trees every day, dreaming of one day being able to fly and enjoy 63 (view) the beautiful countryside from up high.
But that dream disappeared after the great fire.
All of plants were burnt, and all of animals that__64___(live) there were dead except the stone bird. The stone bird was 65 only form of life able to survive the fire. But when she saw 66 the forest had become, she couldn’t stop crying. She cried for days so her tears were wearing away her stone body. Finally, the body was 67 (complete) worn away and the bird turned 68 a puddle (水坑) of water.
But when the sun came out, that puddle of tears evaporated (蒸发) into the sky and became a happy little cloud which could fly over the trees. Since then, the little cloud 69 (travel) all over the world, enjoying the views of all the forests and beautiful countryside. And remembering what destruction the fire brought to her own forest, the cloud is now very 70 (care) to pour her rain down on any tree she sees burning.
What can be done about mass unemployment? All the wise heads agree: there are no quick or easy answers. There is work to be done, but workers aren’t ready to do it — they’re in the wrong places, or they have the wrong skills. Our problems are “structural,” and will take many years to solve.
But don’t bother asking for evidence that justifies this bleak view. There isn’t any. On the contrary, all the facts suggest that high unemployment in America is the result of inadequate demand — full stop. Saying that there are no easy answers sounds wise, but it’s actually foolish: our unemployment crisis could be cured very quickly if we had the intellectual clarity and political will to act.
In other words, structural unemployment is a fake problem, which mainly serves as an excuse for not pursuing real solutions.
The fact is that Job openings have plunged in every major sector, while the number of workers forced into part-time employment in almost all industries has soared. Unemployment has surged in every major occupational category. Only three states, with a combined population not much larger than that of Brooklyn, have unemployment rates below 5 percent. So all the evidence contradicts the claim that we’re mainly suffering from structural unemployment. Why, then, has this claim become so popular?
Part of the answer is that this is what always happens during periods of high unemployment — in part because pundits and analysts believe that declaring the problem deeply rooted, with no easy answers, makes them sound serious.
I’ve been looking at what self-proclaimed experts were saying about unemployment during the Great Depression; it was almost identical to what Very Serious People are saying now. Unemployment cannot be brought down rapidly, declared one 1935 analysis, because the work force is “unadaptable and untrained. It cannot respond to the opportunities which industry may offer.” A few years later, a large defense buildup finally provided a fiscal stimulus adequate to the economy’s needs — and suddenly industry was eager to employ those “unadaptable and untrained” workers.
But now, as then, powerful forces are ideologically opposed to the whole idea of government action on a sufficient scale to jump-start the economy. And that, fundamentally, is why claims that we face huge structural problems have been proliferating: they offer a reason to do nothing about the mass unemployment that is crippling our economy and our society.
So what you need to know is that there is no evidence whatsoever to back these claims. We aren’t suffering from a shortage of needed skills; we’re suffering from a lack of policy resolve. As I said, structural unemployment isn’t a real problem, it’s an excuse — a reason not to act on America’s problems at a time when action is desperately needed.
63. What does the author think is the root cause of mass unemployment in America?
A. Corporate mismanagement B. Workers’ slow adaptation
C. Technological advance D. Insufficient demand
64. What does the author say helped bring down unemployment during the Great Depression?
A. The wise heads’ benefit package.
B. Nationwide training of workers
C. The booming defense industry
D. Through restructuring of industries.
65. What has caused claims of huge structural problems to multiply?
A. Very Serious People ‘s attempt to cripple the economy
B. Powerful opposition to government’s stimulus efforts.
C. Evidence gathered from many sectors of the industries.
D. Economists’ failure to detect the problems in time.
66. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To testify the experts’ analysis of America’s problems.
B. To show the urgent need for the government to take action.
C. To offer a feasible solution to the structural unemployment
D. To alert American workers to the urgency for adaptation

Everyone is eager for successful. But what can we succeed in life? Here are my opinion:
First, we must be friendly and kindly. It allowed us to make friends but survive wherever we are. Second, we must set a goal, which motivates us to pursue our dreams. Third, it’s better to believe in us. Only with self-confidence we realize our goals. Fourth, we should develop good characters, such as a strong will and diligence, because good qualities help us to hold on to our dreams if we get into the trouble.
As far as I’m concerning, success belongs to those who keep on trying. So let’s take action now!

While some dictionaries define the word "right" as "a privilege" when used in the context of "human rights", we are talking about something more basic. Originally, people had rights only because of their membership in a group, such as a family. Then, in 539 BC, Cyrus the Great, after conquering the city of Babylon, did something totally unexpected-he set all slaves free and let them return home. Moreover, he declared people should choose their own religion. Cyrus' statements are about the first "human rights" declaration in history.
Every person has certain basic rights, simply by the fact of being human. These are called "human rights" rather than a privilege, which can be taken away at someone's sudden desire. They are "rights" because they are things you are allowed to be, to do or to have. These rights are there for your protection against people who might want to harm or hurt you. They are also there to help us get along with each other and live in peace.
Yet many people, when asked to name their rights, will list only freedom of speech and belief and perhaps one or two others. There is no question that these are important rights, but the full scope of human rights is very broad. They mean choice and opportunity. They mean the freedom to get a job, adopt a career, select a partner of one's choice and raise children. They include the right to travel widely and the right to work without trouble, abuse and threat of arbitrary(霸道)dismissal.
They even embrace the right to leisure.
In ages past, there were no human rights. Then the idea turned up that people should have
certain freedoms. And that idea, following World War II, resulted finally in the document called the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the thirty rights to which all people are entitled.

They say after a parent dies, the surviving children can take on some of their parent’s characteristics. I 21 becoming anything like my dad for years 22 I wanted to be me, not him; but there I sat at his memorial service several months ago, telling myself, “ You’ve 23 a lot more of your dad in you than you think.”
There is this phrase my dad 24 , and I know I’m going to sound 25 to complain about it, but it used to 26 me. “I am so proud of you,” he told us kids, whether we’d won a race or helped others. That should be a (n) 27 thing, but here’s what always 28 my mind: “You are taking credit for what isn’t really yours. You can be proud, but the 29 is mine.
Your parent is doing his best to give you 30 , but you do not 31 it. “I’m so proud of you.” It came out of my dad’s mouth 32 , on those calls where I might have 33 something that happened at work or when he and Mom came to visit and we 34 the talents of our two boys. I knew the feeling of parental 35 well, especially when my boys achieved in ways that were 36 my comprehension and ability, but I looked for other ways to 37 it. “That’s an extremely good story you’ve written!” I would say about the composition. I thought that by making my praise 38 , it would feel like I was claiming their achievement less as mine and more as one they could own themselves.
So just the other day when my older son sent me an email about his scholarship, I searched for 39 things to say, but finally 40 he doesn’t need my cleverness. They just want what my dad gave me. “I’m so proud of you,” I wrote. Just like the old man to me.
