Handwriting reveals a great deal about how an individual thinks, since the brain dictate (发号施令) hand movements when a person writes. People who think quickly will write quickly, while people whose thinking is slow will write in the same way. Sometimes we see very elaborate (精致的) handwriting, particularly among public figures, such as actors or politicians, who want to draw attention to themselves. For them, handwriting is like a dress that enables them to stand out from the crowd.
The handwriting of someone who is suited to a routine job will appear well organized, clear, and regular, without any special features drawing attention to it. If the job requires proven accuracy, like that of an accountant(会计), the handwriting, especially the numbers, should be precise. On the other hand, someone in sales or public relations must be self-assured, know how to make a good impression, and be able to befriend people even when meeting them for the first time. The handwriting of such individuals will appear rather large, with elaborate capitals and on oversized signature. It will be quick, fluent, and not necessarily reasonable.
Handwriting analysis can be used to find potential behavioral or personality problems. People who are impulsive, aggressive, or dishonest write differently than those who are socially well adapted. Warning signs include broken and strongly or sporadically (零散的) pressured handwriting; disorderly handwriting in which the words run over the lines on the paper, or extremely sharp handwriting. Generally, handwriting that is extreme in any aspect-too small, too weak or too pressured-is suspect.
Evidence of medical problems also shows up in a person’s handwriting. Individuals in pain often stop in the middle of writing. Pauses will be visible in the handwriting of people who experience difficulty breathing, because they stop writing to take a breath.
Handwriting expresses the mental and physical state of the individual, as well. Depressed people write slowly, with lines sloping (倾斜) down and heavy pressure exerted(施加) on the page. People who are excessively excited will write quickly, and their handwriting will be extremely disorganized and practically unreadable. People who are tired tend to write lines that descend down the page, and their handwriting will appear weak and slow. Healthy and vigorous individual will write energetically, and their handwriting will be quick, rhythmic and fluent.
71. The passage is mainly about _____________.
A. what handwriting indicates
B. handwriting and personalities
C. the relationship between handwriting and the individual
D. handwriting analysis and the problems it shows
72. Suppose you are a famous pop star, your handwriting will be in the style of being_______.
A. well-organized B. oversized C. elaborate D. sharp
73. If a person writes with a rather large, elaborate capitals and an oversized signature, we can conclude that he is probably a (an) __________.
A. famous person B. salesman C. doctor D. accountant
74. If you see disorderly handwriting, you will think that the person who writes it is ________.
A. depressed B. vigorous C. slow in thinking D. dishonest
75. According to the passage, a person’s handwriting has something to do with(与……有关) all of the following EXCEPT his______.
A. mind B. education C. health D. profession (职业)

WASHINGTON -Tofu(豆腐)and Soyaburgers (豆饼) may be coming to American school lunch menus. What will the kids say? “Terrible,” said Greg Dudzinski, 17, of Ripon High School in Wisconsin, as he toured the US capital.
“The regular hamburgers are bad enough, so soyaburgers would be a lot worse, offered Zach Richey, 13, of Scottsboro Junior High in Alabama, another tourist. But the United States government – hoping to reduce the amount of fat that children are eating –has approved the use of soy as a meat substitute in meals for schools and day-care centers.Not all kids dislike the change. Mariel Spano, 17, of sandy Greek High School in New York, also visiting the capital, said she likes soyaburgers:“There is less fat, and they are better for you… They taste the same, and they are just as good.”
The government tried to make soy a meat substitute nearly 20 years ago, but later dropped the idea.At the time, the plan was intended as a cost-cutting move. US Agriculture Department officials say that their purpose now is only to make meals healthier.Schools are likely to increase the amount of soy that is mixed with hamburgers and other foods already on their menus, and they will also be looking for food companies to develop new soy products that children will like. “I can’t see putting tofu on a student’s plate and having a good acceptance. I can see taking a product that is familiar to the students and adding a large amount of soy to it and having it to be acceptable,” said Jill Benza, director of food services for the Mesa, Arizona schools.
36.What is the newspaper report mainly about?
A.The difficulty in using soy products for US schools.
B.Various opinions on soy products for US schools.
C.The plan that is made by the US government for school lunch.
D.Healthy foods for students in US schools.
37.Where did the interviews most probably take place?
A.In food companies. B.In schools.
C.In Washington. D.In some other states.
38.We may learn from the text that _________________________.
A.soyaburgers taste better than hamburgers.
B.hamburgers are healthier than soyaburgers.
C.soyaburgers cost less than hamburgers.
D.hamburgers cost less than soyaburgers.
39. What Jill Benza said shows that ___________________________.
A.students have not yet been used to soy products.
B.it is hardly possible to make soy products popular.
C.he does not like the change in meals for students.
D.schools are unwilling to change the lunch menus.
WHAT can help you make a fortune in the future? Graduating from a top university might not be enough.A new study from the University of Essex in Britain has shown that the more friends you have in school, the more money you’ll earn later.
The idea that popularity could have a serious impact on one’s earning potential shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise.The researchers noted that if you want to get_ahead in life, social skills and networking are easily as powerful as talent and hard work.
“If a person has lots of friends, he or she has the ability to get along with others in all kinds of different situations,” said Xu Yan, 17, from Nantou High School in Shenzhen, who totally agreed with the recent finding.“Also, friends always help each other.They not only create wider social circles for you but lift your mood when you occasionally feel depressed.” She believed that all this helps you “earn a higher salary”.
Maybe that’s why some people think the younger generations are in the age of Friendalholism (交友狂症).A woman even complained that the networking website Facebook’s 5000-friend limit was too low for her large reserve of social contacts.
But Meghan Daum, who works with The Los Angeles Times in the US, disliked the idea that quantity trumps (胜过) quality in the age of Friendaholism.“Call me uncool, but I think of a friend as an actual person with whom I have an actual history and whom I enjoy actually seeing.” said Daum.She admitted that some Internet social networkers just want to get as many of not-really-friends as possible.Although she agreed that social ties grease (润滑) the wheels of life, she also warned, “Finding a real friend is something that really matters.”
63.What CANNOT be learned about friends from the passage?
A.They enlarge social circles for you.
B.They offer encouragement when you are upset.
C.Only talented friends help you to earn success.
D.Friends enable you to overcome difficulties.
64.In the age of Friendalholism, ________.
A.there are networking websites to help people make friends
B.a person with popularity is sure to enter a top university
C.facebook helps social networkers make as many friends as possible
D.there are always more not-really-friends than actual ones
65.The underlined words probably mean ________.
A.expect B.struggle C.graduate D.succeed
66.Meghan Daum holds the attitude towards making friends that ________.
A.actual friends outweigh not-really-friends
B.the more friends one has, the better
C.friends can help make a big fortune
D.social relations can hardly make one’s life better
“What use is a fish tank with a hole in the bottom?” his father asked. But Justin simply smiled and repeated his motto, “Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy.”
When Justin was away from home, he always carried his blue backpack--a smaller version of his bedroom--a place to store the many objects that he collected. It was so worn and stretched that it hardly resembled a backpack anymore.
Justin had earned a reputation for figuring things out and getting people out of otherwise hopeless situations. Many of his classmates and neighbors sought him out when they needed help with a problem. On the first day of school, his friend Kenny, came looking for Justin.
“Do you think you have something in your bag that could help me remember my locker combination?” he asked. “I lost the piece of paper it was written on. I have a science class in two minutes and if I’m late on the first day it’ll make me look bad for the rest of the year.” Kenny looked really worried.
“Relax,” Justin said, taking his backpack off and unzipping the top. “Remember how you borrowed my notebook in homeroom to write the combination down? Well, I know how we can recover what you wrote.”
He took the notebook and a soft lead pencil out of his bag. The page that Kenny had written on had left faint marks on another page in the notebook. Justin held the pencil on its side and rubbed it lightly over the marks. Slowly but surely the numbers of the locker combination appeared in white, set off by the gray pencil rubbings.
“That’s amazing!” Kenny said. “I owe you one.” And he dashed off to open his locker.
It was just another day in the life of the boy whose motto was “Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy.”
小题1:Why is Justin’s room such a mess?
A.He always forgets to clean it. | B.He shares the room with his brother. |
C.He has no time to clean it. | D.He never throws anything away. |
A.He uses it as a place to store objects. |
B.He uses it to carry his books and sports equipment. |
C.His parents tell him to clean it all the time. |
D.He’s had it for as long as he can remember. |
A.ignored | B.asked | C.pushed | D.Ordered |
A.Annoyed. | B.Disinterested. | C.Grateful. | D.Angry. |
