5、surance and appreciation. As artists find joy in giving beauty to others, so anyone who masters the art of praising will find that it blesses the giver as much as the receiver.

One way is to teach students how to learn more effectively and
11、 efficiently. Learning strategies are “Procedures or techniques that learners can use to facilitate a learning task.“ Instructing students of English in learning strategies can help them become better learners. In addition, skill in using learning strategies assists students in becoming independent,
12、 confident learners. Finally, students become more motivated as they begin to understand the relationship between their use of strategies and success in learning English. Students need to develop an awareness of the learning process and strategies that lead to Success. Students who reflect on their
13、own thinking are more likely to engage in planning how to proceed with a learning task, monitoring their own performance on an ongoing basis, finding solutions to problems encountered, and evaluating themselves upon task completion. These activities may be difficult for students accustomed to having
14、 a teacher who solves all their learning problems and is the sole judge of their progress. Teachers need to encourage students to rely more on themselves. Because learning strategies are mental processes with few observable manifestations, teachers need to find ways to make the strategies as concret
15、e as possible. When students are able to use the strategies their teachers have taught them, and to do so without prompting, then they need to explore new strategies, new applications, and new opportunities for self-regulated learning.（分数：20.00）(1).Better learning strategies can make language learni

18、nobservable.C.Students need to explore new learning strategies for themselves.D.Teachers are the sole judges of students“ progress.四、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：20.00)When we think about happiness, we usually think of something extraordinary, a peak of great delightand those peaks seem to get rarer the o
19、lder we get. For a child, happiness has a magical quality. I remember making hide-outs in newly cut hay, playing cops and robbers in the woods, getting a speaking part in the school play. Of course, kids also experience lows, but their delight at such peaks of pleasure as winning a race or getting a
20、 new bike is unreserved. For teenagers, or people under twenty, the concept of happiness changes. Suddenly it“s conditional on such things as excitement, love, and popularity. I can still feel the agony of not being invited to a party that almost everyone else was going to. But I also recall the gre
21、at happiness of being invited at another event to dance with a very handsome young man. In adulthood the things that bring great joy inclued marriage, love, birth, also responsibility and the risk of loss. Love may not last, sex isn“t always good, loved ones die. For adults, happiness is complicated
22、. My dictionary explains happy as “lucky“ or “fortunate“, but I think a better explanation of happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment“. The more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are. It“s easy to overlook the pleasure we get from loving and being loved, the company of friends, the freedom
23、to live where we please, even good health. Nowadays, with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, we have turned happiness into one more thing we “gotta have“. We“re so self-conscious about our “right“ to it that it“s making us extremely unhappy. So we chase it and consider it to
24、 be the same as wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have those things aren“t necessarily happier. While happiness may be more complex for us, the solution is the same as ever. Happiness isn“t about what happens to usit“s about how we perceive what happens to us. It“s the ability
25、 to find a positive for every negative, and view a setback as a challenge, it“s not wishing for what we don“t have, but enjoying what we do possess.（分数：20.00）(1).According to the author, happiness lies in the ability to _.（分数：4.00）A.think of something extraordinaryB.experience delight at an old ageC
26、.feel the magic quality of pleasureD.enjoy what one has at the moment(2).According to the passage, a teenager looks at happiness mainly in terms of _.（分数：4.00）A.material gainsB.social distinctionC.spiritual satisfactionD.academic achievement(3).As is suggested in the passage, failure to feel happy o
27、ften results from _.（分数：4.00）A.lack of company of friendsB.lack of freedom to love and be lovedC.taking everything one has for grantedD.ignoring the choices one is given in life(4).The author implies that when one chases wealth and finally gets it _.（分数：4.00）A.he can realize what happiness isB.he ma
28、y not end up with happinessC.he may consider it extreme happinessD.he should not feel content with himself(5).The passage aims to tell _.（分数：4.00）A.the real meaning of happinessB.the great importance of happinessC.the constant pursuit of happinessD.the changing concept of happiness五、Passage Four(总题数
29、：1，分数：20.00)If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of year. A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876-1947), concluded from other men“s work and his own among peoples in different cl
30、imates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities. He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in summer than they are during the rest of year. It does mean, howe
31、ver, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in summer. Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man“s mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature. Fall is the
32、 next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking.（分数：20.00）(1).According to the passage, man“s intelligence _.（分数：4.00）A.stays the same throughout the yearB.varies from day to dayC.changes with the seasonD.changes from year to year(2).El

37、, go to a cool place六、Passage Five(总题数：1，分数：20.00)Concerning money or anything else, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect a power struggle. Conflicts between parent and child often center around the same issue. As children enter adolescence, they begin to demand greater freedom to go w
38、here they please, do what they please, and make decisions without parietal interference. Many American parents do not know how to deal with their teenagers and seek advice from books, lectures, and parent training courses. Parents want to maintain a friendly relationship with their teenagers and als
39、o want to guide them so that their behavior will be whatever the parents consider proper and constructive. But in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values, parents and children often disagree about what is important and what is right. Arguments may concern such unimportant matters as st
40、yles of dress or hairdos. But quarrels may also concern school work, after school jobs, decisions, use of the family car, dating, and sex behavior. Some families have serious problems with teenagers who drop out of school, run away from home, or use illegal drugs. Because so much publicity is given
41、to the problem teenager, one gets the impression that all teenagers are troublemakers. Actually, relatively few adolescents do anything wrong and nearly all grow up into “solid citizens“ who fulfill most of their parents“ expectations. In fact, recent studies show that the “generation gap“ is narrow
42、ing. The vast majority of teenagers share most of their parents“ values and ideas. Many parents say that they get along with their adolescents quite well.（分数：20.00）(1).According to the writer, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect _.（分数：4.00）A.feeling of hatredB.power struggleC.that the

47、om someone else, how can we know that we are valued friends or co-workers? The effects of praise can be great indeed.
