　　Weighing yourself regularly is a wonderful way to stay aware of any

　　significant weight fluctuations. 1 , when done too often, this habit can

　　sometimes hurt more than it 2 .

　　As for me, weighing myself every day caused me to shift my focus from being

　　generally healthy and physically active to focusing 3 on the scale. That was had

　　to my overall fitness goats. I had gained weight in the form of muscle mass, but

　　thinking only of 4 the number on the scale, I altered my training program. That

　　conflicted with how I needed to train to 5 my goals.

　　I also found that weighing myself daily did not provide an accurate 6 of

　　the hard work and progress I was making in the gym. It takes about three weeks

　　to a month to notice any significant changes in your weight 7 altering your

　　training program. The most 8 changes will be observed in skill level, strength

　　and inches lost.

　　For these 9 , I stopped weighing myself every day and switched to a

　　bimonthly weighing schedule 10 . Since weight loss is not my goal, it is less

　　important for me to 11 my weight each week. Weighing every other week allows me

　　to observe and 12 any significant weight changes. That tells me whether I need

　　to 13 my training program.

　　I use my bimonthly weigh-in 14 to get information about my nutrition as

　　well. If my training intensity remains the same, but I’m constantly 15 and

　　dropping weight, this is a 16 that I need to increase my daily caloric

　　intake.

　　The 17 to stop weighing myself every day has done wonders for my overall

　　health, fitness and well-being. I’m experiencing increased zeal for working out

　　since I no longer carry the burden of a 18 morning weigh-in. I’ve also

　　experienced greater success in achieving my specific fitness goals, 19 I’m

　　training according to those goals, not the numbers on a scale.

　　Rather than 20 over the scale, turn your focus to how you look, feel how

　　your clothes fit and your overall energy level.

　　Part A

　　Directions:

　　Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by

　　choosing A,B,C or D.Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.(40 points)

　　Text 1

　　Unlike so-called basic emotions such as sadness, fear, and anger, guilt

　　emerges a little later, in conjunction with a child’s growing grasp of social

　　and moral norms. Children aren’t born knowing how to say “I’m sorry”; rather,

　　they learn over time that such statements appease parents and friends—and their

　　own consciences. This is why researchers generally regard so-called moral guilt,

　　in the right amount, to be a good thing.

　　In the popular imagination, of course, guilt still gets a bad rap. It is

　　deeply uncoortable—it’s the emotional equivalent of wearing a jacket weighted

　　with stones. Yet this understanding is outdated. “There has been a kind of

　　revival or a rethinking about what guilt is and what role guilt can serve,” says

　　Amrisha Vaish, a psychology researcher at the University of Virginia, adding

　　that this revival is part of a larger recognition that emotions aren’t

　　binary—feelings that may be advantageous in one context may be harmful in

　　another. Jealousy and anger, for example, may have evolved to alert us to

　　important inequalities. Too much happiness can be destructive.

　　And guilt, by prompting us to think more deeply about our goodness, can

　　encourage humans to make up for errors and fix relationships. Guilt, in other

　　words, can help hold a cooperative species together. It is a kind of social

　　glue.

　　Viewed in this light, guilt is an opportunity. Work by Tina Malti, a

　　psychology professor at the University of Toronto, suggests that guilt may

　　compensate for an emotional deficiency. In a number of studies, Malti and others

　　have shown that guilt and sympathy may represent different pathways to

　　cooperation and sharing. Some kids who are low in sympathy may make up for that

　　shortfall by experiencing more guilt, which can rein in their nastier impulses.

　　And vice versa: High sympathy can substitute for low guilt.

　　In a 2014 study, for example, Malti looked at 244 children. Using caregiver

　　assessments and the children’s self-observations, she rated each child’s overall

　　sympathy level and his or her tendency to feel negative emotions after moral

　　transgressions. Then the kids were handed chocolate coins, and given a chance to

　　share them with an anonymous child. For the low-sympathy kids, how much they

　　shared appeared to turn on how inclined they were to feel guilty. The

　　guilt-prone ones shared more, even though they hadn’t magically become more

　　sympathetic to the other child’s deprivation.

　　“That’s good news,” Malti says. “We can be prosocial because we caused harm

　　and we feel regret.”

　　21.Researchers think that guilt can be a good thing because it may

　　help______.

　　A)regulate a child's basic emotions

　　B)improve a child's intellectual ability

　　C)foster a child’s moral development

　　D)intensity a child's positive feelings

　　22.According to paragraph 2, many people still consider guilt to

　　be______.

　　A)deceptive

　　B)burdensome

　　C)addictive

　　D) deception

　　23. Vaish hold that the rethinking about guilt comes from an awareness

　　that______.

　　A)emotions are context-independent

　　B)emotions are socially constructive

　　C)emotional stability can benefit health

　　D)an emotion can play opposing roles

　　24. Malti and others have shown that cooperation and sharing _______.

　　A. may help correct emotional deficiencies

　　B. can result from either sympathy or guilt

　　C. can bring about emotional satisfaction

　　D. may be the outcome of impulsive acts

　　25. The word “transgressions” (Line 4, Para.5) is closest in meaning to

　　_______.

　　A. teachings

　　B. discussions

　　C. restrictions

　　D. wrongdoings

　　Text 2

　　Forests give us shade, quiet and one of the larder callenges in the fight

　　against climate change. Even as we humans count on forests to soak up a good

　　share of the carbon dioxide we produce, we are threatening their ability to do

　　so. The climate change we are hastening could one day leave us with forests that

　　emit more carbon than they absorb.

　　Thankfully, there is a way out of this trap-but it involves striking a

　　subtle balance. Helping forests flourish as valuable “carbon sinks” long into

　　the future may require reducing their capacity to absorb carbon now. California

　　is leading the way, as it does on so many climate efforts, in figuring out the

　　details.

　　The state’s proposed Forest Carbon Plan aims to double efforts to thin out

　　young trees and clear brush in parts of the forest. This temporarily lowers

　　carbon-carrying capacity. But the remaining trees draw a greater share of the

　　available moisture, so they grow and thrive, restoring the forest’s capacity to

　　pull carbon from the air. Healthy trees are also better able to fend off

　　insects. The landscape is rendered less easily burnable. Even in the event of a

　　fine, fewer trees are consumed.

　　The need for such planning is increasingly urgent. Already, since 2010,

　　drought and insects have killed over 100 million trees in California, most of

　　them in 2016 alone, and wildfires have burned hundreds of thousands of

　　acres.

　　California plans to treat 35,000 acres of forest a year by 2020, and 60,000

　　by 2030- financed from the proceeds of the state’s emissions- permit auctions.

　　That’s only a small share of the total acreage that could benefit, about half a

　　million acres in all, so it will be vital to prioritize areas at greatest risk

　　of fire or drought.

　　The strategy also aims to ensure that carbon in woody material removed from

　　the forests is locked away in the form of solid lumber or burned as biofuel in

　　vehicles that would otherwise run on fossil fuels. New research on

　　transportation biofuels is already under way.

　　State governments are well accustomed to managing forests, but

　　traditionally they’ve focused on wildlife, watersheds and opportunities for

　　recreation. Only recently have they come to see the vital part forests will have

　　to play in storing carbon. California’s plan, which is expected to be finalized

　　by the governor next year, should serve as a model.

　　26. By saying “one of the harder challenges,” the author implies that

　　_______.

　　A. global climate change may get out of control

　　B. people may misunderstand global warming

　　C. extreme weather conditions may arise

　　D. forests may become a potential threat

　　27. To maintain forests as valuable “carbon sinks,” we may need to

　　_______.

　　A. preserve the diversity of species in them

　　B. accelerate the growth of young trees

　　C. strike a balance among different plants

　　D. lower their present carbon-absorbing capacity

　　28. California’s Forest Carbon Plan endeavors to _______.

　　A. cultivate more drought-resistant trees

　　B. reduce the density of some of its forests

　　C. find more effective ways to kill insects

　　D. restore its forests quickly after wildfires

　　29. What is essential to California’s plan according to Paragraph 5?

　　A.To handle the areas in serious danger first.

　　B.To carry it out before the year of 2020.

　　C.To perfect the emissions-permit auctions.

　　D.To obtain enough financial support.

　　30. The author’s attitude to California’s plan can best be described as

　　_______.

　　A. ambiguous

　　B. tolerant

　　C. supportive

　　D. cautious

　　Text 3

　　American farmers have been complaining of labor shortages for several

　　years. The complaints are unlikely to stop without an overhaul of immigration

　　rules for farm workers.

　　Congress has obstructed efforts to create a more straightforward visa for

　　agricultural workers that would let foreign workers stay longer in the U.S. and

　　change jobs within the industry. If this doesn’t change, American businesses,

　　communities, and consumers will be the losers.

　　Perhaps half of U.S. farm laborers are undocumented immigrants. As fewer

　　such workers enter the country, the characteristics of the agricultural

　　workforce are changing. Today’s farm laborers, while still predominantly born in

　　Mexico, are more likely to be settled rather than migrating and more likely to

　　be married than single. They’re also aging. At the start of this century, about

　　one-third of crop workers were over the age of 35. Now more than half are. And

　　picking crops is hard on older bodies. One oft-debated cure for this labor

　　shortage remains as implausible as it’s been all along: Native U.S. workers

　　won’t be returning to the farm.

　　Mechanization isn’t the answer, either—not yer, at least. Production of

　　corn, cotton, rice, soybeans, and wheat has been largely mechanized, but many

　　high-value, labor-intensive corps, such as strawberries, need labor. Even dairy

　　farms, where robots do a small share of milking, have a long way to go before

　　they’re automated.

　　As a result, farms have grown increasingly reliant on temporary guest

　　workers using the H-2A visa to fill the gaps in the workforce. Starting around

　　2012, requests for the visas rose sharply; from 2011 to 2016 the number of visas

　　issued more than doubled.

　　The H-2A visa has no numerical cap, unlike the H-2B visa for

　　nonagricultural work, which is limited to 66,000 a year. Even so, employers

　　complain they aren’t given all the workers they need. The process is cumbersome,

　　expensive, and unreliable. One survey found that bureaucratic delays led the

　　average H-2A worker to arrive on the job 22 days late. The shortage is

　　compounded by federal immigration raids, which remove some workers and drive

　　others underground.

　　In a 2012 survey, 71 percent of tree-fruit growers and almost 80 percent of

　　raisin and berry growers said they were short of labor. Some western farmers

　　have responded by moving operations to Mexico. From 1998 to 2000, 14.5 percent

　　of the fruit Americans consumed was imported. Little more than a decade later,

　　the share of imports was 25.8 percent.

　　In effect, the U.S. can import food or it can import the workers who pick

　　it.

　　31. What problem should be addressed according to the first two

　　paragraphs?

　　A. Discrimination against foreign workers in the U.S.

　　B. Biased laws in favor of some American businesses.

　　C. Flaws in U.S. immigration rules for farm workers.

　　D. Decline of job opportunities U.S. agriculture.

　　32. One trouble with U.S. agricultural workforce is .

　　A. the rising number of illegal immigrants

　　B. the high mobility of crop workers

　　C. the lack of experienced laborers

　　D. the aging of immigrant farm workers

　　33.What is the much-argued solution to the labor shortage in U.S.

　　farming?

　　A. To attract younger laborers to farm work.

　　B. To get native U.S. workers back to farming.

　　C. To use more robots to grow high-value crops.

　　D. To strengthen financial support for farmers.

　　34. Agricultural employers complain about the H-2A visa for its .

　　A. slow granting procedures

　　B. limit on duration of stay

　　C. tightened requirements

　　D. control of annual admissions

　　35. Which of the following could be the best title for this text?

　　A. U.S. Agriculture in Decline?

　　B. Import Food or Labor?

　　C. America Saved by Mexico?

　　D. Manpower vs. Automation?

　　Text 4

　　Amold Schwarzenegger. Dia Mirza and Adrian Grenier have a message for you.

　　It’s easy to beat plastic. They’re part of a bunch of celebrities starring in a

　　new video for World Environment Day—encouraging you, the consumer, to swap out

　　your single-use plastic staples like straws and cutlery to combat the plastics

　　crisis.

　　The key messages that have been put together for World Environment Day do

　　include a call for governments to enact legislation to curb single-use plastics.

　　But the overarching message is directed at individuals.

　　My concern with leaving it up to the individual, however, is our limited

　　sense of what needs to be achieved. One their own, taking our own bags to the

　　grocery store or quitting plastic straws, for example, will accomplish little

　　and require very little of us. They could even be detrimental, satisfying a need

　　to have “done our bit” without ever progressing onto bigger, bolder, more

　　effective actions—a kind of “moral licensing” that allays our concerns and stops

　　us doing more and asking more of those in charge.

　　While the conversation around our environment and our responsibility toward

　　it remains centered on shopping hags and straws, we’re ignoring the balance of

　　power that implies that as “consumers” we must shop sustainably, rather than as

　　“ citizens” hole our governments and industries to account to push for real

　　systemic change.

　　It’s important to acknowledge that the environment isn’t everyone’s

　　priority-or even most people’s. We shouldn’t expect it to be. In her latest

　　book, Why Good People Do Bad Environmental Things. Wellesley College professor

　　Elizabeth R. DeSombre argues that the best way to collectively change the

　　behavior of large numbers of people is for the change to be structural.

　　This might mean implementing policy such as a plastic tax that adds a cost

　　to environmentally problematic action, or banning single-use plastics

　　altogether. India has just announced it will “eliminate all single-use plastic

　　in the country by 2022.” There are also incentive-based ways of making better

　　environmental choices easier, such as ensuring recycling is at least as easy as

　　trash disposal.

　　DeSombre isn’t saying people should stop caring about the environment. It’s

　　just that individual actions are too slow, she says, for that to be the only, or

　　even primary, approach to changing widespread behavior.

　　None of this is about writing off the individual. It’s just about putting

　　things into perspective. We don’t have time to wait. We need progressive

　　policies that shape collective action (and rein in polluting businesses),

　　alongside engaged citizens pushing for change.

　　36. Some celebrities star in a new video to

　　A. demand new laws on the use of plastics

　　B. urge consumers to cut the use of plastics

　　C. invite public opinion on the plastics crisis

　　D. disclose the causes of the plastics crisis

　　37.The author is concerned that “moral licensing” may

　　A. mislead us into doing worthless things

　　B. prevent us from making further efforts

　　C. weaken our sense of accomplishment

　　D. suppress our desire for success

　　38. By pointing out out identity “citizens”, the author indicates that

　　A. our focus should be shifted to community welfare

　　B. our relationship with local industries is improving

　　C. We have been actively exercising our civil rights

　　D. We should press our government to lead the combat

　　39. DeSombre argues that the best way for a collective change should be

　　A. a win-win arrangement

　　B. a self-driven mechanism

　　C. a cost-effective approach

　　D. a top down process

　　40. The author concludes that individual efforts

　　A.can be too aggressive

　　B. can be too inconsistent

　　C. are far from sufficient

　　D. are far from rational

　　Five ways to make conversation with anyone

　　In choosing a new home, Camille McClain’s kids have single demand: a

　　backyard.

　　McClain’s little one aren’t the only kids who have an opinion when it comes

　　to housing, and in many cases youngsters’ views weigh heavily on parents’ real

　　estate decisions, according to a 2018 Harris Poll survey of more than 2,000 U.S.

　　adults.

　　While more families buck an older-generation proclivity to leave kids in

　　the dark about real estate decisions, realty agents and psychologists have mixed

　　views about the financial, personal and long-term effects kids’ opinions may

　　have.

　　The idea of involving children in a big decision is a great idea because it

　　can help them feel a sense of control and ownership in what can be an

　　overwhelming process, said Ryan Hooper, clinical psychologist in Chicago.

　　“Children may face serious difficulties in coping with significant moves,

　　especially if it removes them from their current school or support system,”he

　　said.

　　Greg Jaroszewski, a real estate brokers with Gagliardo Realty Associates,

　　said he’s not convinced that kids should be involved in selecting a home—but

　　their opinions should be considered in regards to proximity to friends and

　　social activities, if possible.

　　Younger children should feel like they’re choosing their home—without

　　actually getting a choice in the matter, said Adam Bailey, a real estate

　　attorney based in New York.

　　Asking them questions about what they like about the backyard of a

　　potential home will make them feel like they’re being included in the

　　decision-making process, Bailey said.

　　Many of the aspects of homebuying aren’t a consideration for children, said

　　Tracey Hampson, a real estate agent based in Santa Clarita, Calif. And placing

　　too much emphasis on their opinions can ruin a fantastic home purchase.

　　“Speaking with your children before you make a real estate decision is

　　wise, but I wouldn’t base the purchasing decision solely on their

　　opinions.”Hampson said.

　　The other issue is that many children-especially older ones-may base their

　　real estate knowledge on HGTV shows, said Aaron Norris of The Norris Group in

　　Riverside, Calif.

　　“They love Chip and Joanna Gaines just as much as the rest of us,” he said.

　　“HGTV has seriously changed how people view real estate. It’s not shelter, it’s

　　a lifestyle. With that mindset change come some serious money consequences.”

　　Kids tend to get stuck in the features and the immediate benefits to them

　　personally, Norris said.

　　Parents need to remind their children that their needs and desires may

　　change over time, said Julie Gurner, a real estate analyst with

　　FitSmallBusiness.com.

　　“Their opinions can change tomorrow,”Gurner said.“Harsh as it may be to

　　say, that decision should likely not be made contingent on a child’s opinions,

　　but rather made for them with great consideration into what home can meet their

　　needs best-and give them an opportunity to customize it a bit and make it their

　　own.”

　　This advice is more relevant now than ever before, even as more parents

　　want to embrace the ideas of their children, despite the current housing

　　crunch.

　　A.remarks that significant moves may pose challenges to children.

　　41.Ryan Hooper

　　B.says that it is wise to leave kids in the dark about real estate decisions.

　　42. Adam Bailey

　　C. advises that home purchases should not be based only on children’s opinions.

　　43. Tracey Hampson

　　D. thinks that children should be given a sense of involvement in homebuying decisions.

　　44. Aaron Norris

　　E. notes that aspects like children’s friends and social activities should be considered upon homebuying.

　　45.Julie Gurner

　　F. believes that homebuying decisions should be based on children’s needs rather than their opinions.

　　G. assumes that many children’s views on real estate are influenced by the media.

　　It is easy to underestimate English writer James Heriot. He had such a

　　pleasant, readable style that one might think that anyone could imitate it. How

　　many times have I heard people say “I could write a book. I just haven’t the

　　time.” Easily said. Not so easily done. James Herriot, contrary to pupular

　　opinion, did not find it easy in his early days of, as he put it, “having a go

　　at the writing game”. While he obviously had an abundance of natural talent, the

　　final, polished work that he gave to the world was the result of years of

　　practising, re-writing and reading. Like the majority of authors, he had to

　　suffer many disappointments and rejections along the way, but these made him all

　　the more determined to succeed. Everything he achieved in life was earned the

　　hard way and his success in the literary field was no exception.

　　This bar chart depicts the changes of college students’ different choices

　　after graduation from 2013 to 2018. According to the data given above, the

　　percentage of hunting for a job has decreased from 68.1% to 60.7% while the

　　percentage of pursuing a further study in postgraduate schools increased from

　　26.3% to 34.0%. By contrast, the change of the percentage of starting a business

　　is not obvious.

　　There are several possible factors which account for this phenomenon and

　　the followings are the typical ones. On the one hand, due to the increasing

　　emphasis on education, pursuing a further study has become much more popular for

　　college students. On the other, it is the stress from fierce employment

　　competition that makes college students realize the significance of enhancing

　　their academic level and practical skills, which explains the reason why the

　　percentage of hunting for a job has decreased obviously.

　　From what has been mentioned above, we can easily come to the conclusion

　　that this established trend is acceptable. And it is wise for postgraduate

　　students to broaden their horizons and to improve their practical skills during

　　postgraduate study. Only in this way, can they be qualified for the future

　　position.
