Fifty is a nice number for the states in the US or for a national speed limit but it is not a number that I was prepared to have hung on me. Fifty is supposed to be my fathers age, but now I am stuck with this number and everything it means. A few days ago, a friend tried to cheer me up by saying, “ Fifty is what forty used to be .He had made an inspirational point ,Am I over the hill ?People keep telling me that the hill has been moved, and I keep telling them that he high-jump bar has dropped from the six feet I once easily cleared to the four feet that is impossible for me now. “ Your are not getting older, you are getting better. says Dr. Joyce Brothers. This, however, is the kind of doctor who inspires a second opinion. And so .as I approach the day when I cannot even jump over the tennis net. I am moved to share some thoughts on aging with you. I am moved to show how aging feels to me physically and mentally. Getting older. of course, is obviously a better change than the one that brings you eulogies(悼词).In fact ,a poet named Robert Browning considered it the best change of all: Grow old along with me! The best is yet to me.Whether or not Browning was right, most of my first fifty years have been golden ones, so I will settle for what is ahead being as good as what has gone by. I find myself moving toward what is ahead with a curious blend (混合) of both fighting and accepting my aging, hoping that the philosopher (哲学家) was right when he said .Old is always fifteen years from now.41. The author seems to tell us in Paragraph 1 that _.A. time alone will tell B. time goes by quickly C. time will show what is right D. time makes one forget the past42. When the author turned fifty ,people around him _.A. tried to comfort him B. got inspiration with him C. were friendlier with him D. found him more talkative43. The author considers his fifty years of life A. peaceful B. ordinary C. satisfactory D. regretful44. We can infer from the passage that A. the old should led a simple life B. the old should face the fact of agingC. the old should take more exerciseD. the old should fill themselves with curiosityBIn meditation(冥想)，people sit quietly and focus their attention on their breath. As they breathe in and out ,they attend to their feelings .As thoughts go through their minds. they let them go. Breathe. Let go. Breathe. Let go. According to a recent study at the Insight Meditation Society in Barre, Massachusetts, three months of training in this kind of meditation causes a market change in how the brain allocates(分配) attention. It appears that the ability to let go thoughts that come into mind frees the brain to attend to more rapidly changing things and events in the outside world. Expert mediators are better than other people at catching such fast-changing stimuli( 刺激),like facial expressions.The study provides evidence for changes in the workings of the brain with mental training. People can learn and improve abilities of all sorts with practice. everything from driving to playing the piano. The study has shown that meditation is good for the brain ,It appears to reduce pressure and promote a sense of well-being.In an experiment ,17 volunteers with no meditation experience in the experimental group spent three months meditating 10 to 12 hours a day .A control group also with no meditation experience meditated for 20 minutes a day over the same period .Both groups were then given the tests with two numbers in a group of letters. As both group looked for the numbers ,their brain activity was recorded.Everyone could catch the first number .But the brain recordings showed that the less experienced mediators tended to grasp the first number and hang onto it ,so they missed the second number .Those with more experience gave less attention to the first number .as if letting it go ,which led to an increased ability to grasp the second number ,This shows that attention can change with practice.Just ask Daniel Levision, who meditated for three months as part of the study .I am a much better listener, he said. “I do not get lost in my own personal reaction to what people are saying.45.The underlined word “them in Paragraph 1 refers to _.A. feelings B. minds C. people D. thoughts46.Meditations manage their daily tasks better because they _.A. are given less pressure B. allocate their attention better C. have more stimuli for life D. practice them more frequently47. In the experiment ,volunteers doing meditation for longer hours _.A. were more likely to catch both of the members B. were used to memorizing numbers in groups C. usually ignored the first number observed D. paid more attention to numbers than to letters48. The study proves that _. A. meditation improves ones health B. brain activity can be recorded C. human attention can be trained D. mediators have a good sense of hearingCWhen we think of leadership ,we often think of strength and power .But what are these really ,and how do they operate?Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things. If this is even possible, it is short-term, and tends to backfire. If you order someone to do something against their will, they may do it because they feel they must ,but the anger they feel will do more harm in the long-term ,They will also experience fear.Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down, making the person unable to function at his or her best .If they associate you with this emotion of fear. They will become less functional around you ,and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot .but possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively .Fear has no place in leadership.The way we influence people in a lasting way is by our own character, and our understanding and use of emotion .We can order someone to do something ,which may be part of the work day; or we can employ them at the emotional level ,so they became fully devoted to the projects and provide some of their own motivation (积极性). Todays work place is all about relationships. Anyone works harder in a positive environment in which they are recognized and valued as a human being as well as a worker. Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like. Leaders understand the way things work.They know the pay check is not the single most motivating factor (因素) in the work life of most people.The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of emotional intelligence-knowing your own emotions , and how to handle them ,and those of others . Developing your emotional intelligence is the single best thing you can do if you want to develop your relationships with people around you, which is the key to the leadership skills.49. An employee may have a feeling of fear in the work place when _.A. he is forced to do thingsB. be cannot work at his best C. he feels his brain shut downD. he thinks of his work as too heavy 50. Which of the following is TRUE according to the p
