We lived in a very quiet neighborhood. One evening I heard a loud crash in the street. Earlier that evening my wife had asked me to go to the store to get some soft drinks. It seemed that this would be a good time to let my teenage daughter Holly practice her driving， so I sent her to the store in my truck. At dinner my son talked about how much he liked my truck. I enjoyed having it， but I said， “Guy， my heart is not set on that truck. I like it but it is just metal and won’t last forever. Never set your heart on anything that won’t last.” After hearing the loud noise， the whole family ran outside. My son shouted， “Dad！ Dad， Holly crashed your truck.”

The accident had happened in my own driveway. Holly had crashed my truck into our other vehicle. In her inexperience， she had confused the brakes and the gas pedal （油門）. Holly was unhurt physically but when we reached her， she was crying and saying， “Oh， Dad. I’m sorry. I know how much you love this truck.” I held her in my arms as she cried.

Later that week a friend stopped by and asked what had happened to my truck. I told her the whole story. Her eyes moistened （湿润） and she said， “That happened to me when I was a girl. I borrowed my dad’s car and ran into a tree that had fallen across the road. I ruined the car. When I got home， my Dad knocked me to the ground and began to kick me.” Over 40 years later， she still felt the pain of the night.

I remember how sad Holly was on the night she crashed our truck， and how I comforted her. One day， when Holly thinks back on her life， I want her to know that I love her a thousand times more than any piece of property.

24. What can we learn about Holly？

Nowadays more and more people are too busy with work to relax themselves. We have no time to tell a bedtime story to our children， or enjoy a nice dinner with our family， or take a break to think about how we live the valuable life， or even meet friends. All we notice is that the distinctions that used to guide and steady us—between Sunday and Monday， public and private， here and there—are gone. We have more ways to communicate， but less and less to say， partly because we’re so busy communicating.

Maybe that’s why more and more people I know， even if they have no religious belief， seem to be turning to yoga， or meditation （冥想）， or tai chi. Some friends of mine try to go on long walks every Sunday， or to “forget” their cellphones at home. A series of tests in recent years has shown that their brains become both calmer and sharper after spending time in quiet rural settings.

In my own case， I often turn to extreme measures to try to keep my sanity （清醒） and ensure that I have time to do nothing at all. I’ve not yet used a cellphone and I’ve never tweeted Facebook. I tried not to go online till my day’s writing was finished， and I moved from Manhattan to rural Japan.

None of this is a matter of principle or asceticism （苦行主義）： It’s just pure selfishness. Nothing makes me feel better—calmer， clearer and happier—than being in one place， absorbed in a book， a conversation， or a piece of music. It’s actually something deeper than mere happiness： It’s joy， which the monk David Steindl-Rast describes as “that kind of happiness that doesn’t depend on what happens”. That is the highest of the highest we have been longing for—the joy of quiet.

28. Why do some of my friends “forget” their cellphones at home？

A. They think the cellphone isn’t a suitable means of communication.

B. They just leave their cellphones there on purpose.

C. They hate modern techniques.

D. They are really forgetful.

29. Why does the author sometimes do nothing at all？

A. He is out of work. B. He is worried about his social media.

C. He finds his work so dull. D. He can enjoy himself in his leisure time.

30. What is the author most probably？

A. A writer. B. A doctor. C. A businessman. D. A scientist.

31. What does the text mainly want to tell us？

A. The more we communicate， the better we will feel.

B. We can do some sports such as yoga to relax.

C. We are too busy to stay with our family.

D. Enjoying quiet time is very important.

D

The ruins of a Maya city have been discovered in Guatemala with the help of the remote sensing technique LiDAR. This lost city envelops sites like Tikal， Holmul， and Witzna， but shows that these famous areas are a small part of this lost urban network.

Hidden under the jungles of the Maya Biosphere Reserve site， more than 60，000 human-made features—homes， canals， highways， and more—have been identified in aerial （從飞机上的） images collected by some international researchers headed by the PAGUNAM Foundation， a Maya cultural and natural heritage organization. Those have experts rethinking the outlines and complexity of the Maya Empire.

These ancient peoples obviously created these imaginative cultures based on their known relics， but the new research has suggested that the size of this lost society is far beyond what experts imagined. The findings will be explored in a one-hour documentary called Lost Treasures of the Maya Snake Kings， to be broadcast on the National Geographic Channel.

This breakthrough was possible thanks to LiDAR sensors， which can survey lands in 3D by bouncing （反射） pulses off the ground from unmanned air vehicles and others. LiDAR is exceptionally useful for detecting archeological （考古的） sites， as it gets through jungles and other features that hold up exploration on the ground. The technique has made many discoveries become a reality in recent years. For instance， major finds at Angkor， Cambodia and Caracol， Belize can explain what it did. The final goal is to survey Guatemala’s lowlands with it.

“There are entire cities we didn’t know about now showing up in the survey data，” Francisco Estrada-Belli， one of the lead archeologists on the project， said in Nat Geo’s coming documentary. “There are 20，000 square kilometers more to be explored and there are going to be hundreds of cities about the mysterious people who built this urban network there that we don’t know about， and we will push back the frontiers with the technology，” he added.

32. What does the underlined word “Those” in Paragraph 2 refer to？

A. Jungles. B. Researchers. C. Aerial images. D. Human-made features.

33. What does the author want to talk about in Paragraph 4？

A. The working principle of LiDAR sensors. B. Great importance of Guatemalans lowlands.

C. The process of researching Maya civilization. D. LiDAR’s contribution to discovering the relics.

34. Which words can best describe the lost Maya city？

A. Small and hidden. B. Vast and complex.

C. Famous and high-tech. D. Fully-explored and imaginative.

35. What will the archeologists do next？

A. Continue to explore the unknown. B. Study the documentary carefully.

C. Upgrade the LiDAR technology. D. Build a massive urban network.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion， unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease， stomach problems， headaches， emotional problems and possibly cancer.

36        Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger， and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing （抑制） anger.

For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry， the brain releases （释放） the same hormones （荷尔蒙）. They speed the heart rate， raise blood pressure， or sugar into the blood， etc.        37

Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease， and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.

38        They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger. Then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is， they say， “       39        Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”

Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry.        40

A. Anger may cause cancer.

B. Do not express your anger while angry.

C. In general the person feels excited and ready to act.

D. They say that laughter is much healthier than anger.

E. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger.

F. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time.

G. Expressing anger violently is more harmful than repressing it.
