第二节：完形（共20 小题，每小题1 分, 满分20分）
I used to hate being called upon in class ainly because I didn’t like attention drawn to yself. And 36 otherwise assigned a seat by the teacher, I always 37 to sit at the back of the classroo.
All this 38 after I joined a sports tea. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball tea. At first I thought it was a crazy 39 because I didn’t have a good sense of balance, nor did I have the 40 to keep pace with the others on the tea and they would tease e. But for the teacher who kept insisting on y “ 41 for it”, I wouldn’t have decided to give it a try.
Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the 42 of it. When I first started 43 the practice sessions, I didn’t even know the rules of the gae, uch 44 what I was doing. Soeties I’d get 45 and take a shot at the wrong direction — which ade e feel really stupid. 46 , I wasn’t the only one “new” at the gae, so I decided to 47 on learning the gae, do y best at each practice session, and not be too hard on yself for the things I didn’t 48 “just yet”.
I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the 49 and the “oves”. Being part of a tea was fun and otivating. Very soon the copetitive 50 in e was winning over y lack of confidence. With tie, I learned how to play and ade friends in the 51 — friends who respected y efforts to work hard and be a tea player. I never had so uch fun!
With y 52 self-confidence coes ore praise fro teachers and classates. I have gone fro “ 53 ” in the back of the classroo and not waiting to call attention to yself, 54 raising y hand — even when I soeties wasn’t 100 percent 55 I had the right answer. Now I have ore self-confidence in yself.

下列短， 从每题所给的四个选项中， 选出最佳选项。
A
Do you have bright ideas? Ideas or inventions that change society or, at least, ake life easier for soebody? Perhaps we all do soeties, but we don’t often ake the idea a reality. Recently, in Britain, there was a copetition called British Designers for Toorro The copetition encourages young people to carry out their bright ideas. There were two groups in the contest: Group One was for schoolchildren under 16; Group Two was for schoolchildren over 16, and there were eleven prize-winners altogether.
Neil Hunt, one of the prize-winners, was called “Sunshine Superan”. It’s iportant when people study the weather to be able to record sunshine accurately. We need to know how any hours of sunshine we have and how strong it is. ost sunshine recorders only record direct sunlight. Neil’s is ore accurate and this is very iportant for research into the way of using solar power.
You can do so uch with aniated cartoon. Look at Sion West’s idea for aniated road signs. He uses pictures which appear to ove as you go nearer to or farther fro the. This isn’t a new idea. But it is new to use these pictures on road signs. “We found that people were ore likely to see oving signs,” said Sion. So now, you can really see rocks falling, trains oving, horses running or a car falling over the edge of a cliff. Quite a warning!
The ideas in the copetition were so inventive that we are surprised that British industry doesn’t ask ore schoolchildren for suggestions. Perhaps this will be the start of “pupil power!”

A. help schoolchildren in their studies

A. becoe good designers for future Britain
B. win as any prizes as they could
C. design soething useful for the next day
D. invent soething for iediate use
59. What’s the use of Sion West’s aniated road signs?
A. To add to the beauty of a city.
B. To warn people on the roads of the danger ahead.
C. To help ake a car trip ore exciting.
D. To warn people to be careful while working.
60. The writer holds that people seldo .

College graduation brings both the satisfaction of acadeic achieveent and the expectation of a well-paid job. But for 6,000 graduates at San Jose State this year, there’s uncertainty as they enter one of the worst job arkets in decades. Ryan Stewart has a freshly inted(新兴的) degree in religious studies, but no job prospects.
“You look at everybody’s parents and neighbors, and they’re getting laid off and don’t have jobs,” said Stewart. “Then you look at the young people just coing into the workforce... it’s just scary.”
When the class of 2003 entered college, the future never looked brighter. But in the four years they’ve been here, the world outside has changed draatically.
“Those were the exciting ties, lots of dot-co opportunities, exploding offers, students getting top dollar with lots of benefits,” said Cheryl Allen-Vinnidge of the San Jose State Career Center. “Ties have changed. It’s a new arket.”
Cheryl Allen-Vinnidge ought to kno She runs the San Jose State Career Center, sort of a crossroads between college and the real world. Allen-innidge says students who do find jobs after college have done their hoework.
“The typical graduate who does have a job offer started working on it two years ago. They’ve postured（定位）theselves well during the suer. They’ve had several internships(实习),” she said. And they’ve ajored in one of the few fields that are still hot, like cheical engineering, accounting, or nursing, where average starting salaries have actually increased over last year. Other popular fields (like inforation systes anageent, coputer science, and political science) have seen big declines in starting salaries.
Ryan Stewart (he had hoped to becoe a teacher) ay just end up going back to school. “I’d like to teach college soe day and that requires ore schooling, which would be great in a bad econoy,” he said.
To soe students, a degree ay not be a ticket to instant wealth. For now, they can only hope its value will increase over tie.

Anger is good for you, as long as you control it, according to new psychology research. A new study fro Carnegie ellon University shows anger ay help people reduce the negative ipacts of stress and help you becoe healthier.
“Here getting eotional is not bad for you if you look at the case of anger,” said Jennifer Lerner of Carnegie ellon. “The ore people display anger, the lower their stress responses.”
Lerner studied 92 UCLA students by asking the to count back fro 6,200. They ust say out loud every thirteenth nuber. Researchers disturbed the by asking the to count faster or ask the other questions. If they ade any istakes, they had to restart fro the very beginning. any students felt depressed about aking so any istakes or got angry.
Lerner used a hidden video caera and recorded all their facial expressions during the test. The researchers describe their reactions as fear, anger and disgust.
Other researchers recorded the students’ blood pressure,pulse and production of a high-stress horone(荷尔蒙) called cortisol.People whose faces showed ore fear during the experient had higher blood pressure and higher levels of the horone. Both can have lasting effects such as diabetes(糖尿病), heart disease, depression and extra weight gain.
When people feel fear, negative ipacts increase, but when they get angry, those negatives go down, according to the study.
“Having that sense of anger leads people to actually feel soe power in what otherwise is a addening (令人发狂的) situation,” Lerner said.
Lerner previously studied Aericans’ eotional response to the 9•11 terrorist attacks two onths after the incident. She found people who reacted with anger were ore optiistic. These people are healthier copared with those who were frightened during the event. So in addening situations, anger is not a bad thing to have. It’s a healthier response than fear.
66. What is the story ainly about?
A. The findings of new psychology research.
B. What you can do with anger in certain cases.
C. Different effects produced by anger and fear.
D. Healthier responses in addening situations.
67. Which stateent will Jennifer Lerner agree with?
A. It’s better to be angry than to be frightened.
B. Different reactions reflect different outlooks on life.
C. Don’t control your anger and it akes you powerful.
D. Pessiistic people are generally healthier.
68. What does the underlined word “both” refer to according to the passage?
A. Fear and anger.
B. Blood pressure and pulse.
C. Blood pressure and cortisol.
D. Higher blood pressure and higher levels of the horone.
69. In what ways can anger be beneficial to people?
A. By showing their optiistic side.B. By reducing their stress.
C. By reducing high blood pressure.D. By taking the place of fear.
70. The researchers irritated(激怒) the students by .
A. recording their perforance secretly
B. asking the to count to 6,200 again and again

The best way to coe first is to go last. An analysis of alost 50 years of copetitions—including Eurovision Song Contests and world skating chapionships—has found that contestants are ore likely to win if they are aong the last to appear before the judges.
The study by an Aerican university appears to provide scientific proof that the best an, or woan, does not always win.
It found that, on average, the last copetitor to appear in the Eurovision Song Contest was ore than twice as likely to win as the one who went on first.
The first rounds of figure-skating chapionships, for which the running order is selected at rando, showed ore draatic results. The final skater had a 14 percent chance of victory, aking hi or her ore than four ties as likely to win as the first skater.
The study showed a gradual worsening of chances for copetitors who appeared earlier in the running order. A contestant who appears first in a contest is two percent less likely to win than one who appears second. A contestant who appears second is two percent less likely to win than one who appears third, and so on.
The findings are published in the arch issue of Acta Psychologica, a scientific journal.
Robert Hardan, a senior lecturer in psychology at London etropolitan University who specializes in the science of decision-aking, said that the results were interesting. He suggested that the effect was caused by the liitations of the huan eory.
“When people ake coparisons, they aren’t really able to ake a lot of fine-grade discriination. When contestants appear at the beginning of a contest, judges have little to copare the to and are perhaps wary(谨慎的) of the scores they give,” he said.
“Later on, when judges are able to copare the contestants to those that have gone before, they ight give ore extree arks because they feel ore confident about their judgents.”
71. Robert Hardan’s words ainly tell about his .
A. own achieveent in the researchB. explanation for the findings
C. suggestion to solve the probleD. coents on the findings
72. The first skater in the first round of figure skating chapionships had about a percent chance of winning.
A. two B. three C. four D. five
73. According to the study, the best copetitor does not always win possibly because
he/she .
A. fails to show his/her very bestB. is istakenly put in the running order
C. eets with unfair judgesD. appears too early before the judges
74. Judging fro the context, the underlined word “worsening” in the 5th paragraph should
ean .
A. decrease in nuberB. increase in degree
C. reduction in possibility D. rising in quantity
75. What ay be a proble with the judges according to the article?
A. They can’t reeber things well enough.
B. They believe the first is seldo the best.
C. They don’t really knohat is good.
D. They show favor towards the contestants they like.
