Some days, it makes me want to cry. Other days, I feel a sense of expectation within me just thinking about fall that
19、 makes me want to burst. Tonight, all five of us were in the family room doing our own things. At this moment, my littlest kid is my number one trouble and my number one joy. He has a tooth on the way and although its such a tiny thing, its causing so much grief. Im holding him a lot and Im not goin
20、g to lie. I live for his afternoon nap (小睡) so Im able to actually get dressed and use the restroom. The big E is starting school soon. The other day, I found myself a bit depressed about the end of summer and the beginning of another school year. I looked out of our front window with eyes that were
21、 heavy and a bit teary. Then, I suddenly realized just how silly this end of summer depression of mine is. I cant change time. But, I can change my emotions and my thoughts. I decided not to spend my final days of summer vacation walking around with a sad face. I decided to hug the last few days of
22、summer and remind myself that before I know it, we will be back in our school routine and all will go well. This week we plan on meeting teachers. Im taking my girl to have her nails done before her first day of kindergarten. We want to bake a few dozen cookies. Well take our evening walks as usual
23、and stay up late. And last but not least, Ill get school cloth ready, Ill pack lunches and write lunch notes, well read“The Kissing Hand,” like we normally do, and Ill tuck (掖好被子) my third grader and kindergartener in their little beds before the big first day. Thank you summer, youve been warm and

From the passage, we can learn that the author _. A. is fond of reading novels B. has two annoying children C. often takes evening walks D. has no
26、time to get dressed B Ever walked to the shops only to find, once there, youve completely forgotten what you went for? Or struggled to remember the name of an old friend? For years weve accepted that a forgetful brain is as much a part of ageing as wrinkles and grey hair. But now a new book suggests
27、 that weve got it all wrong. According to The Secret Life of the Grown-up Brain, by science writer Barbara Strauch, when it comes to the important things, our brains actually get better with age. In fact, she argues that some studies have found that our brain hits its peak between our 40s and 60s mu
28、ch later than previously thought. Furthermore, rather than losing many brain cells as we age, we retain them, and even produce new ones well into middle age. For years its been assumed that brain, much like the body, declines with age. But the longest, largest study into what happens to people as th
29、ey age suggests otherwise. This continuing research has followed 6,000 people since 1956, testing them every seven years. It has found that on average, participants performed better on cognitive (认 知的) tests in their 40s and 50s than they had done in their 20s. Specifically, order people did better
30、on tests of vocabulary, verbal memory (how many words you can remember) and problem solving. Where they performed less well was number ability and perceptual speed how fast you can push a button when ordered. However, with more complex tasks such as problem-solving and language, we are at our best a
31、t middle age and beyond. In short, researchers are now coming up with scientific proof that we do get wiser with age. Neuroscientists are also finding that we are happier with ageing. A recent US study found older people were much better at controlling and balancing their emotions. It is thought tha
32、t when were younger we need to focus more on the negative aspects of life in order to learn about the possible dangers in the world, but as we get older weve learned our lessons and are sub-consciously aware that we have less time left in life: therefore, it becomes more important for us to be happy
33、. 59. Barbara Strauch probably agrees that _. A. the young are better at handling important things B. peoples brains work best between their 40s and 60s C. ageing leads to the decline of the function of the brain D. wrinkles and grey hair are the only symbols of ageing60. The continuing research has
34、 found older people perform better on _. A. vocabulary tests B. number ability C. perceptual speed D. body balance 61. People are happier with age because _. A. they learn to value the time left B. they know how to share feelings C. they cannot focus on negative aspects D. they do not realize the po
35、ssible dangers 62. What is the main idea of the passage? A. People get wiser with age. B. People get more forgetful with age. C. People get happier with age. D. People get more self-aware with age. C Everyone procrastinates. We put things off because we dont want to do them, or because we have too m
36、any other things on our plates. Putting things off big or small is part of being human. But procrastination does have consequences. When your procrastination leaves you feeling discouraged, it is time to take action, and one of the best ways to get rid of it is to make an un-scheduled. An un-schedul
37、e is a weekly calendar of all the ways in which your time is already accounted for. You consider not only your timed commitments such as classes and meetings, but also your untimed activities such as meals, exercise, time with friends, and the like. Once you have made your un-schedule, you may be ab
38、le to see your time is often filled with more activities than you realize, for instance, that you really dont have five hours to spend writing on the night before your paper is due. Procrastinators views of time tend to be unrealistic, and the un-schedule can help you outline a realistic plan. By pl
39、anning accordingly, you will not only get a better nights sleep, you may also end up with a better paper. The un-schedule might also be a good way to get started on a larger project, such as a term paper or an honors paper. You may think that you have “all semester” to get the writing done, but if y
40、ou really map out how much time you have available to write on a daily and weekly basis, you will see that you need to get started sooner, rather than later. In addition, the un-schedule may reveal especially busy weeks or months, which will help you budget time for long-term projects. Perhaps most
41、importantly, the un-schedule can help you examine how you spend your time. You may be surprised at how much time you spend watching television, and decide to make a change. Its especially important that you build time for fun activities into your un-schedule. Otherwise, you will procrastinate in ord
42、er to steal time for relaxation. You can also use the un-schedule to record your progress towards your goal. Reward yourself for your small successes. Seeing what youve achieved will help you reinforce (强化) the productive behavior, and you will feel more motivated in the following process. As you ex
43、plore ways to conquer procrastination, dont expect overnight transformation. You developed the habit over a long time; you arent going stop magically. But you can change the behavior, bit by bit. If you start to make an un-schedule now, you will eventually develop new habits. 63. From Paragraph 2, w

45、n start my big project later.” C. “Ill treat myself to a movie for my progress.” D. “Im going to have more time to finish my paper.” 65. According to the writer, people need to make an un-schedule because of their _. A. interests in doing things differently B. determination to try out new things C.

A. show concerns B. offer suggestions C. express dissatisfaction D. make comments D I wish documentaries, not movies. I read history books, not fiction.
