He wondered whether he should take up Tai Chi. But Andrew didn’t think so. “Tai Chi is great for people who want to feel grounded, but that isn’t your problem,” he said. “What you need is something more exciting, like dancing.” In future, therapists(理疗专家) may well suggest that you fight your sadness with a course in kickboxing, and family doctors might suggest that you take a rest in the mountains instead. We’ve long been aware that exercise has benefits beyond the physical on Now some trainers and sports psychologists are going further and examining how to identify the correct exercise for a client’s(当事人) specific state of mind and personality. Professor Stuart Biddle, an exercise and sports psychologist based at Loughborough University, England, has researched the effects of exercise on moods. On Anger management, meanwhile, demands bursts of explosive(爆发性的) activity, from sports such as boxing or tennis. This is because anger makes the body release(释放)adrenaline(肾上腺素), which causes heart rate and blood pressure to rise and muscles to become tighter —— the physiological changes required if you are to defend yourself. Research shows that the “punch-bag(用拳头击打沙袋)” method of releasing disappointment and anger through hitting a boxing opponent(对手) or tennis ball, can help with fighting issues. They have also found that teamwork is good for self-esteem and that those who are brought together to work in a social setting become more lively. Which type of exercise will best help is, of course, down to the individual. Clearly, before you can find the best physical activity for yourself, you have to know your needs. Ask yourself a few questions such as: What do I need in my life? Which issues are difficult for me? Am I sad or troubled? On 1. Why did Andrew think Beverley shouldn’t take up Tai Chi? A. Because Beverley was too weak. B. Because Beverley was too foolish. C. Because Beverley’s mind was out of control. D. Because Beverley lacked activity. 2. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Psychologists haven’t realized the relationship between exercise and health. B. People have already realized the relationship between exercise and spirits. C. Boxing and tennis are the best ways to increase on D. Trainers and psychologists don’t agree with each other on exercise. 3. Professor Stuart Biddle thinks that ____ . A. anger should be examined by doctors B. anger should be taken away by medicine C. anger should be given off by activities D. anger should be held back by on 4. The main idea of this passage may be ____ . A. sports build up your body B. sports are helpful to your mind C. heart trouble is due to anger D. anxiety and sadness are harmful to you ( E ) Robert Fredy was general manager of a large hotel in Ashbury Park, New Jersey. On Pearman put his head close to the window. “Come on, mister. Give me a chance. I need a job,” he said. Something in Stephen Pearman’s voice moved Robert Fredy. In the seconds before traffic started moving again, Fredy handed a business card and told him to call if he was serious. “My friends told me he was just pulling my leg,” said Pearman. “But I said, ‘No, he’s a businessman. I need to give it a shot.” Two days later, 29-year-old Pearman appeared in the manager’s office of the big hotel. Fredy gave him a job and housing and lent him pocket money while training him. Today, Pearman works full time setting up the hotel’s dining halls for business meetings. In the past two years, he has found a flat, married and repaid Fredy’s loans (贷款). “Mr. Fredy gave me a second chance,” says Pearman, “And I took advantage of it. I could have just come here a while, eaten up and left. But there is no future in washing windshields.” Ordinarily, Fredy keeps away from the street people. “But Pearman seemed so honest and open, asking for a chance rather than just money,” Fredy says. “I don’t hand my business card to just anybody. But I’m glad I did in this case.” 1. When Pearman offered to wash the windshield for Fredy, ________. A. Fredy took him as a beggar B. Pearman was told to do it later C.

Nowadays, because of the pollution of our environment, our living conditions are getting worse and worse. Waste water and poisonous gases coming from factories and cars are polluting the air and the rivers, which does great harm to our health. As a result, some plants and animals are dying out and fishes in the rivers are becoming fewer.

With the improvement of living standard, there are a lot of waste on campus. For example, the students leave the lights on in the daytime, water running after washing and remains of a lot of food after eating on the table. Some of the students even ask their parents for pocket money. So it is high time that we had to deal with the problem. The reasons are as follows: In the first place, the bad habit of being wasteful will have a bad influence on their own character. Secondly, it adds financial burden to their parents. Last but not least, it also exhausts the world’s very limited natural resources, water and electricity. But how to reduce the waste? In my opinion, it is everybody’s business to fight against waste.
