There was nothing to buy, and 50, no use for money. And so money that is 51 stored is of no value. It is not used to buy the necessaries of life, 52 help those who are in need. That is not what money is for.
The Bible (《圣经》) 53that“the love of money is the 54 of all evil”. T hat is, money sought only for its own sake(缘故) is the cause of all sorts of evil-lying, stealing, cheating, robbery, and 55murder. This is the best reason for avoiding the love of money.

Hebei chemical plant blast(爆炸) pollutes water SHIJIAZHUANG, May 13 -- The blast occurred on Friday at a chemical workshop in Cangzhou, north China's Hebei Province, has polluted water, but not caused toxic gas leak(毒气泄漏), according to the environmental watchdogs.
Environmental departments at state and provincial levels have designated three sites at a village near the workshop to monitor(监控) water quality. The local environmental bureau announces every 10 minutes the contents of sulfur dioxide(二氧化硫), nitrogen dioxide(二氧化氮), chlorine and phosgene in the air.
Thus far, all barometers(气压计) of air quality are normal.
However, about 2,000 cubic meters of water used for putting out the fire and cleaning the scene of blast have been contaminated.
The polluted water has been stored in the sewage pipes(下水管) and a pool at the pump station in the chemical plant, and is banned from discharging by the city's environmental authorities.
Five workers have been confirmed dead and 14 others were seriously injured after a workshop in Cangzhou Dahua TDI Co. Ltd. exploded at 1:40 p.m. on Friday. More than 40 people with slight injuries are still receiving treatment in local hospitals, according to a spokesperson for the Cangzhou city government.
Investigations into the cause of the explosion are underway.

People can be addicted to(沉溺于) different things —e.g. alcohol, drug, certain foods, or even television. People who have such an addiction are compulsive(强迫的):they have a very powerful psychological need that they feel they must satisfy. According to psychologists, many people are compulsive spenders. They feel that they must spend money. This compulsion, like most others, is impossible to explain reasonably. For compulsive spenders who buy on credit(以赊欠方式), charge accounts are even more exciting than money. In other words, compulsive spenders feel that with credit, they can do anything. Their pleasure in spending large amounts is actually greater than the pleasure that they get from the things they buy.
There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course, most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts. Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they don’t need just because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their budgets(预算), but they are really playing an exciting game. When they can buy something for less than other people, they feel that they are winning. Most people, experts claim, have two reasons for their behavior: a good reason for the things that they do and the real reason.
It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also business people. Stores, companies, and advertisers use psychology to increase business. They consider people’s need s for love, power, or influence, their basic values, their beliefs and opinions, and so on in their advertising and sales methods.
Psychologists often use a method called “behavior therapy(疗法)” to help individuals solve their personality problems. In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money.
60. According to the psychologists, a compulsive spender is one who spends large amounts of
money _____.
A. and takes great pleasure from what he or she buys
B. in order to satisfy his or her basic needs in life
C. just to meet his or her strong psychological need
D. and feels he or she is cheated
61. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?
A. People spend money for exactly the same reason that they need to buy things.
B.Business people and advertisers can use the psychology of people’s spending habits to
increase sales.
C. Business people understand the psychology of compulsive buying better than scientists do.
D. Compulsive bargain hunters do not have problems with money.
62. What is the text mainly about?
A. The psychology of money-spending habits.
B. The habits of compulsive spenders.
C. A special psychology of bargain hunting.
D. The use of the psychology of spending habits in business.
63. From the text we may safely conclude that compulsive spenders or compulsive bargain
hunters _____.
A. are really unreasonable
B. need special treatment
C. are really beyond drugs
D. can never get any help to solve their problems with money
C

By choosing to let go of the past, we sweep out all the ashes that weigh us down and affect every aspect of our health, and our peace of mind.
My friend Jean was divorced(离婚) after a thirty-year marriage that produced three daughters, one son and eight grandchildren. Because she actually raised them single-handedly, Jean was hurt and angry that the children didn't take her part after the divorce. For months she refused to attend any family celebration to which her former husband Jim was invited. When I reasoned that her
children's understanding of the relationship with and between the parents was probably altogether different from hers, she stuck to the belief that she was right.
One day Jean called in tears. "Saturday is my daughter's birthday, and I want to be with her, but I can't bring myself to face my former husband. " "Jim isn't the problem," I said gently, "It's false pride. Instead of holding on to the painful past, which is over and done, let the feelings go and get on with your life. You're depriving yourself of the joy of sharing in these important occasions. While Jim feels free to experience them. Tell me, would you rather be right, or be happy? "
That must have done the trick because when Saturday arrived, Jean appeared at her daughter's home carrying her famous chocolate-chip cookies and a beautiful birthday cake.
How great it feels to let go. And the more we practice the art of letting go of all negativity, the better able we become to devote our thoughts, our time, and our energy to living joyfully in the present, what ever age we happen to be.
68. It can be inferred that _________.
A, Jim did very little to bring up the children during their marriage.
B. The writer thought Jean and Jim shouldn't have divorced.
C. The children were on their father's side and didn’t invite Jean to any family celebration.
D. Jean had been too tough on Jim before they divorced.
69. The underlined phrase "depriving yourself of" is closet in meaning to .
A. persuading yourself to get
B. taking away from yourself
C. taking false pride of yourself
D. taking yourself into showing
70. In writer's opinion, __________.
A. Jean and Jim should be remarried
B. a broken family could live together in peace
C. to be happy is more meaningful than to be right
D. everyone should look into the future
71. Which is the best title?
A. The Trick Is Done Successfully
B. The Younger Generation Is More Open minded
C. Follow the Advice of Others in Time of Trouble
D. It is Time to Let Go
E
Many people often say there is more stress (压力) in today's society than in years past. In fact, these people are comparing our lives with that of the cave man, who didn't have to worry about the stock market or the atomic bomb. They forget that the cave man worried about being eaten by a hear while he was asleep, or about dying of hunger--things that few people worry much about today.
Actually stress is a normal state of affairs, and it's important that people understand what they are talking about when they speak about stress. Whenever anyone experiences something unpleasant, for lack of a better word they say they are under stress. Yet there is such a thing as pleasant stress--as in the case of the Olympic winner at the moment of his glory, or a conductor as his orchestra(乐队) performs particularly well. They are just sending out excitement, and they are giving off all the stress hormones(荷尔蒙)exactly the same as if they were in low spirits or had just heard of a death in the family. We call the pleasant or healthy kind "eustress” and the unpleasant or unhealthy kind "distress".
Then how can people deal with stress? The secret is not to avoid it but to "do your own thing". It implies doing what you like to do and what you are made to do at your own speed. For most people, it is really a matter of learning how to live and how to behave in various situations, to decide: “Do I really want to take my father's business or be a musician?” If you really want to
be a musician, then be one.
72. What can be inferred from the first paragraph?
A. Modern people experiences more stress than the cave man.
B. The cave man experienced more stress than modern people.
C. People don't suffer more stress today; it's just that they think they do.
D. Modern people have the same worries as the cave man did.
73. In which of the following situations will you feel "eustress"?
A. Your favorite football team has lost an important game.
B. You have failed an important examination.
C. You are informed of an accident of your best friend.
D. You have won the first prize in an English competition.
74. The purpose of writing the passage is to let us know
A. stress does not necessarily refer to unpleasant experience
B. distress is what people call the pleasant kind of stress
C. an Olympic winner feels the same stress as one who loses a family member
D. people will feel eustress and distress at the same time
75. According to the passage, how can people deal with stress?
A. Do things that you really want to do.
B. Do whatever you're expected to do.
C. Try to do things successfully.
D. Refuse to do whatever you're told to.

上周五下午，高二（1）班和（2）班进行了一场足球友谊赛。

结果一直被看好的“明星”云集的（2）班竟然输了。

为此（2）班进行了一场讨论。

有的人认为：要想赢球就要靠个人技术好，没有个人技术是不行的。

有的人则认为：足球是一场团队活动，单靠个人技术是不够的，重要的是靠团结协作。

假如你是（2）班的一名学生，请你就此事的讨论作个总结，发表自己的看法，写一篇120字左右的英语作文。

注意：不要简单翻译，可以使用合乎情理的过度性语言适当发挥。

Last Friday afternoon, a friendship football match was held between Class 1 and Class 2.
Unfortunately, our class, the so-called star-gathered class was defeated by Class 1, which disappointed everyone. As a result, a discussion took place afterwards.
Some of us think it is very important for each player to have very good skills if we want to win, while others think football is a team game and that it’s impossible to win only depending on individual skills. What really matters is to cooperate and work together.
Personally speaking, the key to victory is that all members of the team are well aware of their own roles and the importance of helping and supporting each other to make an equal contribution. Only in this way can we win the match one after another. (133 words)。
