LOS ANGELES，Feb 12-Whitney Houston, whose soaring voice lifted her to the top of the pop music world but whose personal decline was fueled by years of drug use, died on Saturday afternoon in a Beverly Hills hotel room. She was 48.
The pop superstar died on the eve of the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles at the same hotel where her mentor, record mogul Clive Davis, was holding an annual pre-event party featuring scores of music industry celebrities（名人）.
A dramatic scene unfolded at the Beverly Hilton hotel as guests arriving for the party expressed shock at her death, while reporters swarmed the hotel, fans gathered outside to light candles in her memory and helicopters hovered overhead.
Beverly Hills police said they were called to the Beverly Hilton at around 3:43 p.m. PST, and fire department personnel who were already at the location responded immediately. Houston was in her fourth-floor room but was unresponsive to CPR, and she was pronounced dead at 3:55 p.m.
"She has been positively identified by friends and family (who) were with her at the hotel, and next of kin have already been notified," Lieutenant Mark Rosen told reporters. Police said there were no obvious signs of criminal intent.
Los Angeles County coroners removed Houston's body from the hotel after midnight through a backdoor to avoid the crush of media set up to cover her shocking death.
Typically, coroners conduct an autopsy within a day or two, at which point they might release some preliminary information about the death. If drugs or alcohol are involved, however, an official cause of death would not be released until after toxicology（毒理学）tests, which could take six to eight weeks.
Tributes poured in from around the world for a singer whose remarkable vocal power and range produced some of the most memorable music of her generation, including her signature hit, "I Will Always Love You."
"I don't have to mask my emotion in front of a room full of so many dear friends," Davis told a somber crowd at his gala dinner and party just hours after Houston's death. "I am personally devastated by the loss of someone who has meant so much to me for so many years."
Neil Portnow, president of the Recording Academy, which runs the Grammys, told the audience at Davis's party that Jennifer Hudson would sing a tribute to Houston at Sunday night's Grammy Awards."We will do something appropriate tomorrow, and nothing could be more appropriate than having Jennifer Hudson sing on stage for Whitney," Portnow said. "In our community, we celebrate things ... let's celebrate Whitney Houston."

D．Whitney Houston’s fame grew as she won the Grammy Awards

Blogging may have psychological（心理的）benefits for teens suffering from social anxiety, improving their self-esteem（自尊）and helping them relate better to their friends, according to new research published by the American Psychological Association. "Research has shown that writing a personal diary and other forms of expressive writing are a great way to release emotional distress and just feel better," said the study's lead author, Meyran Boniel-Nissim, PhD, of the University of Haifa, Israel. "Teens are online anyway, so blogging enables free expression and easy communication with others."
Blogging has a stronger positive effect on troubled students' well-being than merely expressing their social anxieties and concerns in a private diary, according to the article published online in the APA journal Psychological Services®. Opening the blog up to comments from the online community intensified those effects.
The researchers randomly surveyed high school students in Israel, who had agreed to fill out a questionnaire about their feelings on the quality of their social relationships. A total of 161 students -- 124 girls and 37 boys, with an average age of 15 -- were selected because their scores on the survey showed they all had some level of social anxiety or distress. All the teens reported difficulty making friends or relating to the friends they had. The researchers assessed the teens' self-esteem, everyday social activities and behaviors before, immediately after and two months after the 10-week experiment.
Four groups of students were assigned to blog. Two of those groups were told to focus their posts on their social problems, with one group opening the posts to comments; the other two groups could write about whatever they wanted and, again, one group opened the blog up to comments. The number and content of comments were not evaluated for this experiment. The students could respond to comments but that was not required. Two more groups acted as controls -- either writing a private diary about their social problems or doing nothing. Participants in the writing and blogging groups were told to post messages at least twice a week for 10 weeks.
Four experts, who held master's or doctoral degrees in counseling and psychology, assessed the bloggers' social and emotional condition via their blog posts. Students were assessed as having a poor social and emotional state if they wrote extensively about personal problems or bad relationships or showed evidence of low self-esteem, for example.
Self-esteem, social anxiety, emotional distress and the number of positive social behaviors improved significantly for the bloggers when compared to the teens who did nothing and those who wrote private diaries. Bloggers who were instructed to write specifically about their difficulties and whose blogs were open to comments improved the most. All of these results were consistent at the two month follow-up.
The authors conceded that the skewed（有偏向的）sex ratio was a limitation to the study. However, the researchers analyzed the results separately by gender and found that boys and girls reacted similarly to the interventions and there were no major differences. They said future research should attempt to control the subjects for sex.
50．The selection of students for the experiment was largely based on .
A．their social relationships B．their self-esteem
C．their problems in social life D．their willingness to fill out a questionnaire 51．What’s the function of “controls” (Paragraph 4) in the experiment?
A．To write down some social problems in a private diary.
B．To post messages to the blog and respond to comments.
C．To help evaluate the number and content of blog comments.
D．To offer a comparison for checking the experimental result.
52．From the experiment we can know that .
A．writing private diaries makes no difference to the relief of one’s emotional stress
B．teenagers opening their blogs up to comments have more psychological benefits
C．the positive effects of expressing one’s emotions by blogging don’t last very long
D．those describing bad relationships on blogs tend to develop more mental problems
5
53．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．The authors insisted that all the research findings were accurate.
B．Sex rate had been taken into account before the survey was conducted.
C．The authors were intended to improve the experiment in the future.
D．Similar reactions of boys and girls indicated the failure of the experiment.
54．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Blogging can help reduce social stress and anxiety.
B．The research into blogging attracts public attention.
C．Blogging provides a simple way for communication.
D．Blog comments have a positive effect on teenagers.

It’s just a small, white envelope stuck among the branches of our Christmas tree. No name, no identification, no inscription. It has peeked through the branches of our tree for the past 10 years or so.
It all began because my husband Mike hated Christmas -- oh, not the true meaning of Christmas, but the commercial aspects of it -- the overspending, the frantic running around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry and the dusting powder for Grandma -- the gifts given in desperation because you couldn't think of anything else.
Knowing he felt this way, I decided one year to bypass the usual shirts, sweaters, ties, and so forth. I reached for something special just for Mike. The inspiration came in an unusual way.
Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was wrestling（摔跤）at the junior level at the school he attended. Shortly before Christmas, there was a non-league match against a team sponsored by an inner-city church. These youngsters, dressed in sneakers so ragged that shoestrings seemed to be the only thing holding them together, presented a sharp contrast to our boys in their spiffy blue and gold uniforms and sparkling new wrestling shoes. As the match began, I was alarmed to see that the other team was wrestling without headgear, a kind of light helmet（头盔）designed to protect a wrestler's ears. It was a luxury the ragtag team obviously could not afford.
Well, we ended up walloping them. We took every weight class. And as each of their boys got up from the mat, he swaggered around in his tatters with false bravado, a kind of street pride that couldn't acknowledge defeat.
Mike, seated beside me, shook his head sadly, "I wish just one of them could have won," he said. "They have a lot of potential, but losing like this could take the heart right out of them."
Mike loved kids -- all kids -- and he knew them, having coached little league football, baseball, and lacrosse. That's when the idea for his present came. That afternoon, I went to a local sporting goods store and bought an assortment of wrestling headgear and shoes and sent them anonymously to the inner-city church.
On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree, the note inside telling Mike what I had done and that this was his gift from me. His smile was the brightest thing about Christmas that year and in succeeding years.
For each Christmas, I followed the tradition -- one year sending a group of mentally handicapped youngsters to a hockey game, another year a check to a pair of elderly brothers whose home had burned to the ground the week before Christmas, and on and on.
The envelope became the highlight of our Christmas. It was always the last thing opened on Christmas morning, and our children, ignoring their new toys, would stand with wide-eyed anticipation as their dad lifted the envelope from the tree to reveal its contents.
As the children grew, the toys gave way to more practical presents, but the envelope never lost its allure. The story doesn't end there. You see, we lost Mike last year due to cancer. When Christmas rolled around, I was still so wrapped in grief that I barely got the tree up. But Christmas Eve found me placing an envelope on the tree, and in the morning it was joined by three more.
Each of our children, unbeknownst to the others, had placed an envelope on the tree for their dad. The tradition has grown and someday will expand even further with our grandchildren standing around the tree with wide-eyed anticipation watching as their fathers take down the envelope. Mike's spirit, like the Christmas spirit, will always be with us.
55．Why did Mike get so bored with Christmas at first?
A．People would pour into stores to blindly purchase gifts over Christmas.
B．He wasn’t satisfied with the Christmas presents he had ever received.
C．People couldn’t come up with any fantastic ideas for Christmas gifts.
D．The true meaning of Christmas remained unchanged in people’s minds.
56．The writer mentions what the two teams wore in Paragraph 4 in order to .
A．show her pride in her children’s present living conditions
B．explain the reason why her son’s team won the match
C．reflect the financial difficulty of the inner-city church
D．express the shock those lower-class teenagers brought her
6
57．What did Mike mean by saying “losing like this could take the heart right out of them” (Paragraph 6)?
A．They didn’t care whether they could win the match or not.
B．They didn’t acknowledge the defeat because of the unfairness.
C．Being defeated in this way could make them lose confidence.
D．Being defeated in this way could inspire them to train harder.
58．Mike’s bright smile at the note suggests .
A．what his wife had done as against the Christmas spirit.
B．he thought the very Christmas gift had real significance
C．what was written on the note was easy to understand
D．he was amused by the Christmas tradition of his family.
59．What happened at the first Christmas after Mike’s death?
A．The writer asked her children to follow their family tradition.
B．All the children stood around the Christmas tree with expectation.
C．The writer removed the Christmas tree to avoid thinking of Mike.
D．The children each put an envelope on the Christmas tree for their dad.
60．In the writer’s eyes, the white envelope is a symbol of .
A．Mike’s spirit B．children’s love C．unusual ideas D．special gifts
第二节：阅读下面6条有关家庭沟通的建议选出符合各段意思的。

A．Create family traditions. B．Remember the 80/20 rule.
C．Insist on family celebrations. D．Create opportunities for talking.
E．Use technology to your advantage. F．Go on individual dates with your children.
It’s no secret that nowadays a majority of parents are overworked, overcommitted and overscheduled. Kids would rather text their friends than chat with Mom or Dad, .which leads to a family communication crisis. Want to improve your family’s communication skills? Try following these simple steps.
61.
Make time for talking by reducing the number of activities your family is involved in each week − the time it frees up for communication will be invaluable. And if you do find yourself in the car running from place to place, make a point to turn off the radio, the cell phones and the personal game players, and use that opportunity to catch up on the day's activities.
62.
day or large family. Older teens might enjoy going out for a hamburger or a latte at their favorite coffee place. Younger children often enjoy going to the supermarket, especially when you let them select their favorite cereal or special dessert. Please remember, regularly making such arrangements can keep the relationship healthy.
63.
comes to family communication, listen four times longer than you speak. Similarly, think twice about what you say before you say it. Sometimes a parent's first reaction is to rant and scream, especially to negative news. Do your best to avoid this, and if you do verbally explode before your child is finished, apologize quickly and assure him or her that you're now ready to listen
64.
creating a family newsletter that you publish monthly? Ask everyone in the family to contribute "articles" and information about themselves. Then print out a copy for each person and hand deliver it. This would be especially helpful to families that find keeping in touch more difficult as the kids grow up and move away.
65.
movie night, attending religious services or creating special holiday treats are all examples of family traditions. Family members come to expect and appreciate these traditions, seeing them as opportunities to come together as a unit. If your family is short on traditions, there's no reason you can't start some now. Why not set up a bowling night once a month? Or grow a family garden? Or visit the same spot every year for summer vacation?

One possible version:
Should We Ignore Quality Education?
As is vividly shown in the picture above, a child is struggling for full marks in school subjects, which is strongly supported by his family members. But he ignores the more important aspects such as psychological quality and moral character.
This picture mirrors a common social phenomenon setting us thinking. Academic achievements are not all a student needs. Without a good psychological quality, we often fail to face ups and downs in life bravely. Besides, we can not make contributions to society with a low moral standard.
Therefore, immediate measures must be taken to reverse the misleading trend. Students and parents are supposed to take a correct attitude towards grades. Meanwhile, it’s necessary that the Department of Education stress the significance of quality education and above all put it into practice.。
