An experiment shows that a type of human behavior is conformity, which may be defined as a willingness to adopt the same behavior and attitudes as those seen in other people.

In order to experience a sense of belongings to a particular group, an individual may willingly 50 the group?s values and behavior. Often, however, an individual will conform to the behavior of those around him even when they are total 51 .

I was a rotten teenager, sharp-tongued and eager to control others. At an early age I could make things go my way with just a few small changes. The writers for today?s hottest soap opera could not have created a 50 character than me.

I don?t know how long it took me to realize how I was 51 so many others. Not only did I succeed in 52 many of my closest friends by trying to control them; I also managed to destroy the most 53 relationship in my life: my relationship with my mother.

My mother, who gave birth to me at age 54 her doctor?s wishes, would cry to me, “I waited so long for you. Don?t ignore my help!” I would reply 55 , “I never wanted you to care about me! Leave me alone and forget I ever lived!”

My mother began to believe I really 56 it. Like many young girls in high school, the boys who I knew were 57 were always the first ones I had to date. I would try to find any way to draw attention to myself while at the same time trying to be 58 . I had also been heavy into drugs then to change my personality. And my only pleasure was to make people feel 59 . But then I asked myself why. Why the need to hurt? Why the attacks on my mother? I would drive myself mad with all the whys until one day I couldn?t 60 it any longer and jump from a car moving at 80 miles per hour.

Lying awake the following night at the hospital, I saw my mother?s pained face, tired brown eyes filled with nothing but thanks for her daughter?s rebirth of life.

61 all the horrible things I did to her, she still loved me. I cried and asked why. She just looked down at me and said frankly, “Because you are my daughter.”

62 love is the most precious gift we can give. Being 63 for the past is the most precious gift we can receive. I want to 64 the gift my mother gave me to all the “rotten teenagers” in the world. 50.

For busy people, the idea of speed dating has really caught on in popularity. In a speed dating event, usually 8-10 _50_ go around from table to table, each spending 6-8 minutes at each one. From that, you may not know for sure if you want to _51_ something more with an individual, but, you will _52_ know if you don't want to.

The first thing that you will realize about speed dating is that it makes you _53_. Unlike a bar, where you might get a whole evening to __54__ check a potential partner out and to see what they've got, when it comes to _55_, you know that you only have a certain amount of time to put your best foot forward（全力以赴）there. You'll find the other participants are _56_ of this and will put their best foot forward.

An 8-minute speed dating will also give you a chance to see how someone _57_ under pressure. You may already know a little more about their _58_ if you find someone who can't seem to make eye-contact. The best advice is to make eye contact, be open and direct. You'll find that the _59_ time can make for some excellent opportunities to really shine, and there's nothing like a deadline to make you more _60_! An important detail to keep in mind is that you will be _61_ to a dozen or more singles in a short time. Those who feel that there is an advantage in larger numbers will surely find this _62_.

When you are looking for _63_, you may not want to do the long search, so think about speed dating and see what you can do to make sure that it works for you. _64_, give this exciting opportunity a try! 50. A. lovers 51. A. learn

Some personal characteristics play an important role in the development of one?s intelligence. But people fail to realize the importance of training these factors in young people.

The so-called ?non-intelligence factors? include one?s feelings, will, motivation, interests and habits. After a 30-year study, American psychologists 50 that the main cause of differences in intelligence is not intelligence 51 , but non-intelligence factors including the desire to learn, will power and self-confidence.

52 people all know that one should have definite objectives, a strong will and good learning habits, quite a number of teachers and parents don?t pay much attention to 53 these factors .

Some parents are greatly worried when their children fail to do well in their studies. They blame either genetic factors, or laziness, but they never take into 54 these non-intelligence factors. At the same time, some teachers don?t inquire into reasons why students do 55 . They simply give them more courses and exercises, or 56 criticize or laugh at them. After all, these students lose self-confidence. Some of them just feel defeated and 57 themselves up as hopeless. Others may go astray（堕落）because they are sick of learning. An investigation of more than 1,000 middle school students in Shanghai showed that 46.5 per cent of them were 58 of learning, because of examinations, 36.4 per cent lacked persistence, initiative and consciousness and 10.3 per cent were sick of learning .

It is clear that the lack of cultivation of non-intelligence factors has been a main 59 to intelligence development in teenagers. It even causes an imbalance between physiological and 60 development among a few students .

If we don?t start now to 61 the cultivation of non-intelligence factors , it will not only affect the development of the 62 of teenagers, but also affect the quality of a whole generation. Some experts have put forward 63 about how to cultivate students? non-intelligence factors. Parents and teachers should 64 understand teenage psychology . On this basis, they can help them to pursue the objectives of learning, exciting their interests and toughening their willpower. 50．A．came out B．found out C．made out D．worked out 51．A．in itself B．by itself C．itself D．on its own 52．A．Though B．Nevertheless C．However D．Moreover 53．A．believing B．studying C．cultivating D．developing 54．A．effect B．comment C．consideration D．preparations 55．A．poorly B．properly C．successfully D．dependently 56．A．ever B．even C．still D．more 57．A．put B．get C．handle D．give 58．A．afraid B．ahead C．aware D．ashamed 59．A．difficulty B．question C．threat D．obstacle 60．A．intelligent B．characteristic C．psychological D．physical 61．A．practise B．regulate C．strengthen D．urge 62．A．intelligence B．diligence C．cultivation D．performance

It took brave European explorers less than 300 years, between 1420 and 1713, to establish that all the seas of the world formed an enormous and continuous ocean. This discovery encouraged them to 50 into areas which hadn?t been charted until then. With the discovery of new lands, new trade routes were 51 . In many parts of the world, colonies and settlements were established and many odd-looking products were brought back to 52 , arousing great interest and 53 wealth.

It was probably the irresistible desire for wealth which 54 persuaded Europeans of the fifteenth century to 55 their legendary dangers and explore further out into the open seas. They were also 56 by the love for their country. Many explorers wanted to serve their king and country as well as gain personal 57 from their exploring.

The most effective way of gaining wealth was through 58 . Silk, gold, silver and 59 stones, and more importantly spices, such as gingers and peppers, were the most profitable trade goods in Europe. Spices were of the greatest 60 because they enabled the Europeans to make their winter diet of salted meat more delicious. These items were 61 mostly from the East by a difficult overland route. The Italian 62 , who bought goods from the Arabs of Alexandria, controlled the trade along this route. Other countries of the Mediterranean 63 the wealth which this trade generated and they were 64 to discover new routes which would allow them to share in it. 50. A. sail

Several times throughout your school years, you may be asked to work with one or more of your classmates. 50 is necessary, and is usually more productive than working alone. Whatever the task your group is assigned, a few 51 need to be followed to ensure a productive and successful learning experience. What comes first is to keep a(n) 52 mind, because every member is equally important and everyone?s ideas should be taken into consideration. Secondly, it makes a job easier to divide the group task among all group members. Choose a 53 on the team that is best suited to your particular strengths, so that you can perform best. Thirdly, always work together, take turns, and encourage each other by listening, clarifying, and trusting one another. Mutual (相互的) support and trust often make a great difference. Activities like investigations are most 54 when done by small groups. Here are some more 55 for effective team performance during these activities: Make sure each group member understands and agrees to the 56 , and everyone knows exactly when, why and what to do, take turns doing various tasks during similar and repeated activities; be

57 your own learning, though it is by no means unwise to compare your observations with those of other group members. When there is 58 to be done, divide the task into several areas, and this can explore the issue in a very 59 way, which can make your research work more fruitful. You are encouraged to keep records of the 60 used by each person, which helps you trace back to the origin of the problems that may happen 61 . A format (规范) for exchanging information (e.g. photocopies of notes, oral discussion, etc.) is also important, for a well-chosen method not only strengthens what you present but also makes yourself easily

62 . When the time comes to 63 on an issue, allow for the contributions of each member of the group, and most important of all, it is always wise to make decisions by compromise (折中) and agreement. After you?ve completed a task with your team, make an 64 of the team?s effectiveness—the strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and challenges.

When discussing the causes of animal endangerment, it is important to understand that individual species are not the only factors involved in this difficult situation. Endangerment is a broad 50 , one that involves the habitats(栖息地) and environments where species live and interact with one another. Although some measures are being taken to help specific cases of endangerment, the universal problem cannot be solved until humans 51 the natural environments where endangered species live. There are many reasons why a particular species may become endangered, but habitat destruction is on top.

Our planet is continually changing, causing habitats to be altered and modified. Natural changes tend to occur at a 52 pace, usually causing only a slight 53 on individual species. However, when changes occur at a fast pace, there is little or no time for individual species to 54 and adjust to new circumstances. This can create disastrous results, and for this reason, rapid habitat loss is the primary cause of species endangerment. The strongest 55 in rapid habitat loss are human beings. Nearly every region of the earth has been affected by human activity, particularly during this past century. The loss of microbes (微生物) in soils that 56 supported tropical forests, the 57 of fish and various aquatic species in polluted habitats, and changes in global climate brought about by the 58 of greenhouse gases are all results of human activity.

It can be difficult for an individual to 59 the effects that humans have had on specific species. It is hard to identify or predict human effects on individual species and habitats, especially during a human lifetime. But it is quite 60 that human activity has greatly 61 to species endangerment. 62 , although tropical forests may look as though they are thick and healthy, they are 63 highly susceptible (易受影响的）to destruction. This is because the soils in which they grow 64 nutrients. It may take centuries to re-grow a forest that was cut down by humans or destroyed by fire, and many of the world’s severely threatened animals and plants live in these forests. If the current rate of forest loss continues, huge quantities of plant and animal species will disappear.

The central problem of economics is to satisfy the people's and nation's wants.

The problem we faced with is that our resources, here identified as money are __50__. The only way we can solve the problem is to make choices. After looking at our resources, we must examine our list of __51__ and identify the things we need immediately, those we can postpone, and __52__ we cannot afford. As individuals, we face the central problem involved in economics---deciding how to allocate(分配) our limited resources to provide __53__ with greatest satisfaction of our wants.

Nations face the same problem. As a country's population __54__, the need for more goods and services grows correspondingly. Resources necessary to production may increase, but there are __55__ enough resources to satisfy the total desires of a nation. Whether the budget meeting is taking place in the family living room, in the conference room of the corporation __56__ of directors, or in the chamber of the House of Representatives in Washington, the basic problem still exists. We need to find __57__ of allocating limited resources in order to satisfy unlimited wants. A short time ago, economists divided goods into two categories, free and economic. The former, like air and water, were in __58__ abundance(丰富) that economists had no concern for them. After all, economics is the __59__ of scarcity and what to do about it. Today many of these \for producers extra cost, and __61__ taxpayers who pay for the government's involvement in cleaning the environment.

In the 1990s, almost all goods are __62__. Only by effort and money __63__ obtained in the from people wish.

Meeting needs of people and the demands from resource available __64__ the basic activity of production. In trying to meet unlimited wants from limited economic goods, production leads to new problems in economics.

People often fall ill because of me. However, they can hardly blame me; it is largely their own 50 . A tired person may get caught, especially when he goes to crowded places with polluted air. A sudden change in 51 is another factor. In hot summer, people turn on the air-conditioner upon returning home. They will catch a cold easily.

My latest victim is an energetic student. After school, he played football hard for two hours. Though 52 , he still went to the cinema. Then he got back home and took a cold shower immediately.

I seized this golden chance to 53 him. He reacted, trying to 54 me, but I was already 55 deep in his throat. He kept sneezing and his nose was running. 56 he put on some warm clothes, it didn?t work, for there were too many of us. Besides, his sore throat kept upsetting him, and he developed a cough to force me and my family out, but 57 .

The next day he couldn?t go to school. He had lost his appetite and was not as 58 as before. His mother made him orange juice every few hours for more vitamin C, which would help his 59 .

For two days he was nursed by his mother. As he rested more, his defense strengthened and I began to feel the 60 . I knew I had to 61 him before long. But I am not the one who gives up easily, and I made every effort to fight back. 62 , it was my turn to feel 63 now, for his defense system was starting an all-out attack against me.

When I entered Berkeley, I hoped to earn a scholarship. Having been a Straight-A student, I believed I could __50__ tough subjects and really learn something. One such course was World Literature given by Professor Jayne. I was extremely interested in the ideas he __51__ in class.

When I took the first exam, I was __52__ to find a 77, C-plus, on my test paper, for English was my best subject. I went to Professor Jayne, who listened to my arguments but remained __53__. I decided to try harder, although I didn?t know what that means __54__ school had always been easy for me. I read the books more carefully, but got another 77. Again, I __55__ with Professor Jayne. Again, he listened __56__ but wouldn?t change his mind.

One more test before the final exam. One more __57__ to improve my grade. So I redoubled my efforts and, for the first time, learned the meaning of the word “ 58 ”. But my __59__ did no good and everything went as before.

The last hurdle was the final. No matter what grade I got, it wouldn?t cancel three C-pluses. I might as well kiss the __60__ goodbye.

I stopped working hard. I felt I knew the course material as well as I ever would. The night before the final, I even __61__ myself to a movie. The next day I decided for once I?d have fun with a test.

A week later, I was surprised to find I got an A. I hurried into Professor Jayne?s office. He __62__ to be expecting me. “If I gave you the grade as you expected, you wouldn?t continue to work as hard.”

I stared at him, __63__ that his analysis and strategy were correct. I had worked my head off, as I had never done before.

I was __64__ when my course grade arrived: A-plus. It was the only A-plus given. The next year I received my scholarship. I?ve always remembered Professor Jayne?s lesson: you alone must set your own standard of excellence.

Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being 50 all the time: if corrected too much, he will 51 talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference 52 the language he uses and the language around him. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language 53 other people?s. In the same way, children learn to do all the other things they learn to do without being 54 - to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle, compare their own performances with those of more 55 people, and 56 make the needed changes.

But in school we never give a child a (n) 57 to find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would 58 notice a mistake 59 it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying 60 doing this or not.

If it is a matter of right answers, as it 61 be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waster time on 62 routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can?t find the 63 to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all 65 persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know. 50. A. corrected 51. A. begin 52. A. among 53.
