Hidden deep in the rainforests of an island in the Philippines, was an ethnic (种族的) 36 called the Tasaday. Not until that moment did anyone have any 37 of these people. They didnt have an agricultural economy; they hunted animals and 38 fruit from the plants in the rainforest. They carried tools made of stone, lived in 39 and wore clothes made of leaves. Unknown until 1971, they 40 became world famous. After that, there were TV 41 and books about them; people said their simple lives showed that human beings could be good and kind if they were not 42 by modern life. Then after 1974 the region was closed by the government and the world 43 about them.In 1986, a Swiss journalist, Oswald Iten, decided to visit the Tasaday. The journey 44 thick rainforests and across rivers was hard and dangerous. Mr. Iten was 45 killed by the soldiers, villagers and businessmen who wanted to take the wood from the rainforest. Finally, Mr. Iten 46 and found the caves of the Tasaday 47 . The people were living in nearby huts and they were all 48 jeans and T-shirts, not leaves. He thought that perhaps they were not an ethnic minority 49 .When he 50 to Switzerland, Mr. Iten wrote about the Tasaday people in the newspapers. He said he thought that they were just ordinary farmers, poor, but not 51 from anyone else. He believed that in 1971, the government told “the Tasaday” to 52 they were native people from thousands of years ago, so that tourists-and money-would start 53 into the region.One group of experts said that they really were people who had no 54 with modern life before 1971; another group said they were just 55 the part. So who are these people, really? Perhaps well never really be sure.36. A. manB. groupC. chiefD. tradition37. A. knowledgeB. impressionC. doubtD. fear38. A. grewB. enjoyedC. collectedD. stored39.

Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesnt matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.We all talk to ourselves sometimes. Were usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. But we really shouldnt be, because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.This “self-talk” helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solves problems, and calm ourselves down. Beware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying, “Good job!”Words possess power because of their lasting effects. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it true? Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesnt pass this test, then its better left unsaid.Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem(自尊) and motive others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.56The author argues in the first paragraph that _.Awords will never hurt us at allBwords have lasting effects on usCpositive effects last longer than negative effectsDnegative words last longer than positive effects57Why should we not feel embarrassed when talking to ourselves?AAlmost everybody has the habit of talking to oneself.BIt does harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone.CTalking to ourselves helps us to solve all the problems.DTalking to ourselves is believed to be good for our health.58The underlined phrase “give ourselves a pat on the back” in Paragraph 3 means _.Ablame ourselves                                   Bpunish ourselvesCpraise ourselves                                   Dtalk to ourselves59Which of the following statements would the author agree to?AIt is better to think twice before talking to others.BIt is impossible for unkind words to be forgotten.CWords always possess long positive effects.DKind words are sometimes not needed at all.BIt was a winter morning，just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005While most people were warming up their cars，Trevor, my husband，had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to workOn arrival，he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually doesAfter putting in  10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike goneThe bike，a black Kona 18 speed，was our only TransportTrevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young familyAnd the bike was also used to get groceries(食品杂货)，saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.I Was so sad that someone would steal our bike that 1 wrote to the newspaper and told them our storyShortly after that，several people in bur area offered to helpOne wonderful stranger even bought a bike，then called my husband to pick it upOnce again my husband had a way to get to and from his jobIt really is all honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more soThis experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity(人性)as a wholeAnd it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we，too，can share with othersNo matter how big or how small，all act of kindness shows that someone caresAnd the results can be everlasting60Why was the bike so important to the couple?AThe man's job was bike racing  BIt was their only possession.CThey used it for work and daily life    DIt was a nice Kona 18 speed  61We can infer from the text that_.         Athe couple worked 60 hours a week    Bpeople were busy before ChristmasCthe stranger brought over the bike    Dlife was hard for the young family62How did people get to know the couple's problem?AFrom radio broadcasts     BFrom TV newsCFrom a newspaper              DFrom a stranger63What do the couple learn from their experience?AStrangers are usually of little help   BAn act of kindness can mean a lotCNews reports make people famous    DOne should take care of their bikeC“My kids really understand solar and earth-heat energy,” says a second-grade teacher in Saugus, California. “Some of them are building solar collectors for their energy course.” These young scientists are part of City Building Educational Program (CBEP), a particular program for kindergarten through twelfth grade that uses the stages of city planning to teach basic reading, writing and math skills and more.The children dont just plan any city. They map and analyze (分析) the housing, energy, and transportation requirements of their own district and foretell its needs in 100 years. With the aid of an architect (建筑师) who visits the classroom once a week, they invent new ways to meet these needs and build models of their creations. “Designing buildings of the future gives children a lot of freedom, says the teacher who developed this program. “They are able to use their own rich imagination and inventions without fear of blame, because there are no wrong answers in a future context. In fact, as the class enters the final model-building stage of the program, an elected official and planning group make all the design decisions for the model city and the teacher steps back and becomes an adviser.CBEP is a set of activities, games and imitations that teach the basic steps necessary for problem-solving: observing, analyzing, working out possible answers, and judging them based on the childrens own standards.64The program is designed to_.A.direct kids to build solar collectorsB.train young scientists for city planning
