And those who learn to 45 are the most loved and respected. Those who are in the 46 of correcting others are often resented （怨恨） and 47 .A wonderful way for becoming more peaceful and loving is to practise 48 others the joy of being right —give them the glory. 49 correcting .

The people in your life will become more peaceful and 52 . They will appreciate you more than you could ever have 53 .

AAmericans have never before exercised and dieted as eagerly as they are doing today. As a result, they do not only look younger and slimmer, but feel better. Because of increased physical fitness, life expectancy in the nation has risen to seventy-three years, with fewer people suffering from heart disease, the nation’s number one killer.Jogging (慢跑), the easiest and cheapest way of improving the body, keeps over 30 million people of all ages on the run. For the price of a good pair of running shoes, anyone anywhere can join the race.Dieting, too, has become a national pastime. Promoters of diets that eliminate eating one thing or another, such as fats or carbohydrates, promise as much as 20-pound weight losses within two weeks. Books describing such amazing diets always head up (居……之首) the best-seller lists because people who are overweight want to lose weight quickly and easily.Nevertheless, jogging and dieting, carried to extremes, can be harmful. Many confused joggers overdo and finally suffer from ankle and foot damage. Dieting, fortunately, becomes only a temporary means for shedding a few pounds while the body lose the balanced nutrition (营养) it requires, so most dieters cannot keep on diets. Above all, common sense should be the keystone for any dieting and exercise plan.56. The main idea of this passage is that . A. both jogging and dieting can improve your health B. exercise and improved diet has raised the American’s life expectance C. people, who jog and diet wisely, will be healthier than those who do not D. diet and exercise harm rather than benefit health57. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? A. Jogging can damage the body because it is too tough an exercise. B. Diets are so popular because they are on the best-seller lists. C. Americans now live to be 73 years old. D. Exercise and diet are more widespread in America than ever before.58. It is implied but not stated that . A. heart disease is the number one killer among Americans B. exercise and dieting bring about spiritual as well as physical well-being C. people don’t stay on a diet because it doesn’t work D. a 20-pound weight loss within two weeks is too much for the body59. The underlined word “shedding” means . A. weighing something B.sending light over something C. getting rid of something that is no longer wanted D. increasing BTo be sure, only children experience some things differently from those with siblings（兄弟姐妹）. Many feel more pressure to succeed. In the absence of brothers and sisters, only children are also likely to look more exclusively to their parents as role models.In India,19-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group for the tiny number of only children.Among other things,the group does volunteer work to be against the myth that they’re irresponsible（不负责任的）.“People think we’re pampered（娇惯） and spoiled,” says Sankpal,a computer-engineering student.“But I’d like to remind them how lonely it can get.”Most only children,however, say they wish for siblings only when it comes to caring for aging,unhealthy parents.Britain’s David Emerson,coauthor of the book The Only Child, says that such a person bears terrible burden in having to make all the decisions alone.Emerson knows from experience:After his father died,he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home,where she was vulnerable（易受攻击的） to house breakers,to a new one with more safety.“The move was quite hard on her,and she might feel that I pushed her into it,” he says.“Finally, I am left with that responsibility.”In the future,more and more only children will likely face similar choices.With working mothers increasing，many families are finding they simply don’t have the time, money or energy to have more than one child.As only children become common, perhaps the world will realize that the accusation（指责） made against them is unfair.60.It can be inferred from the passage that only children’s parents should____.A.found a support group for their only childrenB.do volunteer work to help their only childrenC.let their only children make all the decisions aloneD.set good examples for their only children61.Emerson decided to move his elderly mother to a new house because he ____.A.is the only who cares about herB.is worried about her safetyC.wants to share the responsibility with her D.doesn’t want to leave her alone62.It is quite usual now for a working mother to ____.A.spend all her time and money on her only childB.be responsible for bringing up her only childC.have and bring up only one childD.put all her energies on her job63.The main idea of the passage is that ____.A.only children are spoiled and irresponsibleB.only children have to face many difficultiesC.most only children want to have brothers and sistersD.most only children share their responsibilities with their parentsCWestern New Bridge Library AnnouncementShortened Library Hours for Spring BreakLibrary Hours have been shortened to 7hours a day （9:00am-4:00pm）for Spring Break from March 21 to March 30．Coming Events·On Monday, March 21, at 10:30 am, Scott Sutton, a children’s writer, will tell stories to kids over seven．Sutton’s attractive style will surely inspire everyone present!·At l:00pm, on March 23, the Georgetown musicians will present an Irish folk concert, which will be entertaining for the entire family．Come for the music and stay to check out some relevant books for the rest of the week!·On Thursday, March 24, at 2:00pm, the annual Children's Gathering will take place in Room 201, the second-floor．Pick up an invitation in the Children's Room and return your RSVP（回复） to reserve your seat at the table by 3:00pm on Wednesday day, March 23．Only children are allowed in the gathering．·At 10:30 am, on Friday, March 25, Enzo Monfre of the his kids’ science show, ENZOology, will bring Fossbls live!

A．Mom believed every aim could be achieved if you stuck to it． B．What the child had said brought Mom great attraction and curiosity． C．Mom was determined to prove she herself was better than the teacher． D．The race across monkey bars was not difficult enough for a child to give up．71．The most probable conclusion we can draw after reading the passage is ____． A．the last incident was sad enough to make Mom weep B．the child's experience reminded Mom of that of her own C．Mom could solve any problem except the one in the last paragraph D．in fact Mom suffered more in the process of the child's growthE In our culture, the sources of what we call a sense of "mastery"—feeling important and worthwhile—and the sources of what we call a sense of "pleasure"—finding life enjoyable—are not always the same．Women often are told "You can't have it all．" Sometimes what the speaker really is saying is: "You choose a career, so you can't expect to have closer relationships or a happy family life．" or "You have a wonderful husband and children—what's this all about wanting a career?" But women need to understand and develop both aspects of well-being, if they are to feel good about themselves． Our study shows that, for women, well-being（幸福） has two aspects．One is mastery, which includes self-respect, a sense of control over your life, and low levels of anxiety and depression．Mastery is closely related to the "doing" side of life, to work and activity．Pleasure is the other aspect, and it is made up of happiness, satisfaction and optimism．It is tied more closely to the "feeling" side of life．The two are independent of each other．A woman could be hig。
