A certain good woman one day said something that hurt her best friend of many years. She regretted it immediately and would have done anything to have taken the words back. So she went to an older, wiser woman in the village and       advice.
Listening to her, the older woman       the younger woman’s distress and knew she must help her. She also knew she could       ease her pain, but she could teach.
Then, she said. “There are       things you need to do. The first is extremely difficult. Tonight, take your best       pillows and open a small hole in each one. Then,       the sun rises, you must put a single feather on the doorstep of each house in town. When you are through,      to me. If you’ve done the first thing      , I’ll tell you the second.”
The young woman hurried home to prepare for her chore,       the pillows were very       to her and very expensive.
All night long, she went from doorstep to doorstep. Her fingers were      . The wind was so sharp that it caused her eyes to water, but she ran on through the       streets,       there was something she could do to put things       the way they once were. Finally she placed the last feather on the steps of the last house. Just as the sun rose, she returned to the older woman.
She was exhausted but       , thinking that her efforts would be rewarded.
“Now,” said the wise woman, “Go back and       your pillows. Then everything will be as it was before.”
The young woman was stunned, “You know that’s impossible! The wind       each feather as fast as I placed them on the doorsteps! You didn’t say I had to get them back! If this is the second      , then things will never be the same.” 
“That’s true,” said the older woman. “Never forget. Each of your words is like a feather in the wind. Once       , no amount of effort,       how heartfelt or sincere, can ever return them to your mouth. Choose your words well and guard them most of all in the presence of those you love.”

Almost everyone is afraid of something --- snakes, heights, public speaking and so on.
It is normal and can even be helpful to experience fear sometimes. In dangerous situations, fear can keep our bodies alert (警醒的) so that we can act quickly to protect ourselves.
But for some people, fear develops into a “phobia”, which is a strong and unreasonable fear of something. For example, the majority of us feel a little scared when looking down from a tall building. But people with height phobia may have trouble breathing, feel dizzy or turn down a great job just because the company is on the 20th floor.
Phobias can prevent you from living a normal life. “People with spider phobia would stay out of their home or dormitory room for days if they thought a spider was present,” Katherina Hauner, a researcher at Northwestern University, US, told ABC news. This is why scientists have been trying to find a cure for this disease.
Since fear comes from experience --- from what we are told, what we see others experience and what happens to us --- some scientists think if they can “rewrite” these unpleasant memories, they might be able to help people overcome their phobias.
In a study by Hauner and other scientists, participants with spider phobia were asked to first touch a spider with a paintbrush. Seeing that it was not actually dangerous, they then tried touching it while wearing a glove. Finally, they could hold it with their hands.
Certain medicine has also been found to be helpful. Back in 2010, researchers at the University of Hiroshima, Japan, injected (注射) a special medicine into a fish --- who was afraid of light --- to turn off the fear center in its brain. From then on, the fish no longer feared light.
While the search for solutions to phobias is making great progress, it’s an open question whether getting rid of fear is good. Some people want to use these methods to make soldiers fight harder in wars by taking away their sense of fear. Dave Smithson of the charity Anxiety UK thinks that’s a bad idea. “It’s fear that prevents us from doing crazy things,” he says. “There’s a name for people who don’t have fear of consequences: psychopaths (精神變態(tài)者).
小題1:The main point of the article is to ___________.
A．show us what kind of role fear plays in our lives
B．discuss if it is good to try to get rid of fear
C．inform us of fear and phobia
D．discuss scientific studies related to fear
小題2:How does the writer make the meaning of “phobia” clear?
A．By making comparisons.B．By giving examples.
C．By giving data in numbers.D．By giving descriptions.
小題3:Which of the following shows the progress scientists have made in finding solutions to phobia?
A．New medicine can shut off fear centers in animal brains whenever needed.
B．They can use phobias to keep our bodies alert so that we can protect ourselves.
C．They can now reduce the pain which is connected with phobia.
D．They have succeeded in helping some people ignore memories related to phobia.
小題4:Which of the following would Dave Smithson probably agree with?
A．There is nothing to fear except fear itself.
B．We should not let fear affect our decisions.
C．Fear is not a completely bad thing.
D．Without fear, everyone would be brave.

科目：高中英語 來源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

An older friend once gave me a piece of advice, “Enjoy the last few weeks of college,” she said, “since college is the best time of your life.”
This was not the first time I’d heard such a statement, but with graduation fast coming close, her words especially struck me. It seemed a bit disappointing to reach one's life peak at only 22 years of age, but in her opinion, college had been one of the best times in my life so far. I made friends, took classes, and learned a great deal about myself. But I was also excited for the time after college—moving to a new city, starting a new job, and becoming a "real" person. I hoped that my great dreams were practical.
Then, last week I read a column in Real Simple Magazine called 100 Years of Attitude, in which women 100 years or older shared their life experiences and views. I noticed that none of them considered college as the "best" time of their life. Not all of them went to college, but still in most cases their teens and twenties were not the best times of their life. They said some of their favorite times were raising their children, traveling after retirement, and even enjoying their present time and age.
Enjoying one's present time and age was a clear theme of the interviews. A piece of advice given by the women was about the importance of making the best of all situations. I think it more accurate than that of my friend; I can say with certainty that if I am lucky enough to make it to 100, I refuse to spend the last 80 years of my life plummeting (跌落) downhill, or even leveling off.
I am sure that our eagerness and devotion will make us college students live a meaningful life. We will not just look backwards or miss our college days. We will look forward in excitement about continued journey uphill.
小題1:Which of the following opinions does the writer agree with?
A．College is the best time of one’s life.
B．Twenties were the best time of the old people.
C．One should make the best of all situations.
D．One should not look backwards at their college time.
小題2:In the second paragraph, the writer wants to say ______.
A．her achievements in college would be the peak of her success
B．she is looking forward to living as a “real” person in college
C．she becomes more and more uneasy with graduation
D．she is satisfied with the college life but is hopeful for the future
小題3:The column the writer read is mainly about those old women’s ______.
A．best time of life at youthB．life experiences and views
C．different opinions about lifeD．favorite time with best friends
小題4:By saying “I refuse to spend the last 80 years of my life plummeting downhill, or even leveling off” (in Paragraph 4), the writer really means ______.
A．she will not spend the rest of her time at college
B．she will not just obtain a college level certificate
C．she will not be satisfied with what she has already accomplished
D．she will not be content with the life in the future

Don’t talk to me; I’m busy with my iPhone
Riding a London subway, a person from China will notice one major difference: in London, people do not look at each other. In fact, eye contact is avoided at all times. That’s not rudeness—people are just too busy to bother looking.
Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they’re certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet reflection, nor are they reading a book. New technology has replaced quiet habits. Today the only acceptable form of book on the London underground is an e-book.
Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters（乘車上下班的人）. Since the launch of the iPhone in 2007, over 40,000—yes, that’s 40,000—“apps” （programs downloaded for the iPhone） have been designed.
Commuters love them because they are the perfect time-fillers. One “app”, called iShoot, is a game that features tanks. Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination. ISteam clouds the iPhone screen when you breathe into the microphone. You can then write in the “ steam” on your phone screen.
For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be another choice. It’s not just teenagers who “plug in” to their music—iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages.
And if games, e-books and music aren’t enough to keep you occupied， then perhaps you would prefer a film. The development of palm DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite TV show or film on the way to work. With all this entertainments, it’s amazing that people still remember to get off the train.
