The idea was s ppular that he cntinued it the first Tuesday f every mnth fr the next tw years. Bys frm five t ten years ld wuld grab a favrite bk, settle int the barber chair, and read alud while Hlmes was ding their hair. If they were puzzled ver a wrd, Hlmes was there t help.

“Is the glass half empty r half full?” This ld English saying has lng been used t tell a pessimist frm an ptimist. Fr mst yung peple tday, the answer is usually “half full”, because we have been taught that a psitive attitude twards life is ne f the primary keys t success.
Hwever, is this necessarily a gd thing? Recent studies indicate that it all depends. There is such a thing as t much psitivity. It happens when smene remains in a happy and psitive state and ignres any bad and negative emtins acrss all situatins. But as a matter f fact, it is nrmal fr us t experience any emtins. The death f a pet r lved ne, a lw scre n a test, r a muntain f new hmewrk shuld lead t emtins such as sadness, frustratin and anger. If we hide these emtins just because we want t lk ptimistic in frnt f ur friends and family, they can build up inside f us and end up erupting in unexpected ways. There is new evidence t suggest that many f these verly psitive peple are at a risk f develping drug r alchl addictins as well as ther psychlgical prblems.
Aside frm the persnal emtinal impacts, this attitude can als have a negative effect n the peple arund yu. Imagine having had a bad day, and wanting t talk abut it with yur friend. Hwever, instead f listening t yur prblems and sympathizing with yu, they simply tld yu t “be psitive” and give yu the impressin that yur prblems are being cmpletely ignred. Just take everything as it cmes and express hw yu really feel. This makes yu human, and yur true friends will always stick by yu.
S my simple advice t yu is t d what gives yu the best “attitude” in life, whatever fr yu that might be. Regardless f whether a glass is half-empty r half-full, it nnetheless still has space t fill.
28. Why des the writer mentin the glass at the beginning f the text?
A. T give sme evidence. B. T intrduce the tpic.
C. T present an argument.D. T explain his ideas.
29. What is the writer’s attitude t the persn wh remains psitive acrss all situatins?
A. Negative.B. Supprtive.C. Dubtful.D. Unclear.
30. What is the main idea f paragraph 3?
A. The cause f verly psitivity.
B. The preventin f verly psitivity.
C. The bad effect f verly psitivity n thers.
D. The bad impacts f verly psitivity n persnal emtin.
31. Which f the fllwing may the writer agree with?
A. Psitivity is the key t success.
B. We needn’t stay psitive all the time.
C. There isn’t such a thing as verly psitive.
D. Psitivity always des a harm effect t ur lives.
D
One f the greatest killers in the Western wrld is heart disease. The death rate frm the disease has been increasing at an alarming speed fr the past thirty years. Tday in Britain, fr example, abut fur hundred peple a day die f heart disease. Medical experts knw that peple can reduce their chances f getting heart disease by exercising regularly, by nt smking, by changing their diets, and by paying mre attentin t reducing stress in their wrk.
Hwever, Western health-care systems are still nt paying enugh attentin t the preventin f the disease. There is a need fr mre prgrams t educate the public abut the causes and preventin f heart disease. Instead f supprting such prgrams, hwever, the U.S. health-care system is spending large sums f mney n the surgical (外科的) treatment f the disease after it develps. This emphasis (强调) n treatment clearly has smething t d with the technlgical advances that have taken place in the past ten t fifteen years. In this time, mdern technlgy has enabled dctrs t develp new surgical techniques. Many peratins that were cnsidered impssible r t risky a few years ag are nw perfrmed every day in U.S. hspitals. The result has been a huge increase in heart surgery.
Althugh there is n dubt that heart surgery can help a large number f peple, sme peple pint ut that the emphasis n the surgical treatment f the disease has three clear disadvantages. First, it attracts interest and mney away frm the questin f preventin. Secnd, it causes the csts f general hspital care t rise. After hspitals buy the expensive equipment that is necessary fr mdern heart surgery, they must try t recver the mney they have spent. T d this, they raise csts fr all their patients, nt just thse patients whse treatment requires the equipment. The third disadvantage is that dctrs are encuraged t perfrm surgery even n patients fr whm an peratin is unnecessary — because the equipment and expert skills are there. A gvernment ffice recently stated that majr heart surgery was ften perfrmed even thugh its chances f success were lw. In ne type f heart surgery, fr example, nly 15 percent f patients imprved their cnditins after the surgery. Hwever, mre than 100,000 f these peratins are perfrmed in the United States every year.
32. What effect has mdern technlgy had n medicine?
A. It has reduced the csts f medical treatment.
B. It hasn’t helped save any patients.
C. It has encuraged dctrs t d mre heart surgery.
D. It has helped educate peple abut the preventin f heart disease.
33. What des the underlined wrd “recver” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Bst.B. Spring up.C. Get back.D. Absrb.
34. The authr wuld agree that ______.
A. mre mney shuld be spent n the preventin f heart disease
B. heart surgery has helped mst patients imprve their cnditins
C. mdern technlgy has made heart surgery mre risky than befre
D. the public have knwn a great deal abut the causes f heart disease
35. Which wuld be the best title fr the passage?
A. The Greatest Killer in the WestB. Heart Disease: Treat r Prevent?
C. Old Technlgy and Heart SurgeryD. Heart Surgery: Advantages

It was the day f the big crss-cuntry run. Students frm seven different primary schls in and arund the small twn were warming up and walking the rute(路线)thrugh thick evergreen frest.
I lked arund and finally sptted David, wh was standing by himself ff t the side by a fence. He was small fr ten years ld. His usual big tthy smile was absent tday. I walked ver and asked him why he wasn’t with the ther children. He hesitated and then said he had decided nt t run.
What was wrng? He had wrked s hard fr this event!
I quickly searched the crwd fr the schl’s cach and asked him what had happened. “I was afraid that kids frm ther schls wuld laugh at him,” he explained uncmfrtably. “I gave him the chice t run r nt, and let him decide.”
I bit back my frustratin(懊恼). I knew the cach meant well—he thught he was ding the right thing. After making sure that David culd run if he wanted, I turned t find him cming twards me, his small bdy rcking frm side t side as he swung his feet frward.
David had a brain disease which prevented him frm walking r running like ther children, but at schl his classmates thught f him as a regular kid. He always participated t the best f his ability in whatever they were ding. That was why nne f the children thught it unusual that David had decided t jin the crss-cuntry team. It just tk him lnger—that’s all. David had nt missed a single practice, and althugh he always finished his run lng after the ther children, he did always finish. As a special educatin teacher at the schl, I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was prud f his strng determinatin.

A Remarkable Persn I Admire
The persn I admire mst is Tu Yuyu, a Chinese pharmaclgist brn in 1930. Her greatest achievement is discvering artemisinin, which saves millins frm malaria. She even wn the 2015 Nbel Prize in Physilgy r Medicine.
What mves me is her perseverance. In the 1970s, with pr resurces, she and her team tested ver 2,000 recipes and never gave up after failures.
Tu’s stry inspires me deeply. When I struggle with studies, her spirit pushes me t keep trying. I learn that success needs hard wrk and I’ll fllw her t chase my dreams.

We sat dwn next t each ther, but David wuldn’t lk at me. I said gently and quietly, “N ne can change yur mind, except yurself.

Hearing my wrds, David turned t me tremblingly with tears spilling ut f his eyes and expressed he had made a firm determinatin t finish the crss-cuntry run. His cach heard what David said and gave me a lk—the kind that was mre determined than anyne else’s.

David insisted n running as if he had frgtten all his weaknesses, thugh he was tripped ver within the a few kilmeters. It didn’t take lng befre he picked himself up again and cntinued his missin.
