Passage One
At all age and at al stages of life, fear presents a problem to almost everyone. “We are largely
the playthings of our fears,” wrote the British author Horace Walpole many years ago. “To one,
fear of the dark; to another, of physical pain; to a third of public ridicule; to a fourth, of
poverty; to loneliness ---- for all of us our particular creature waits in a hidden place.”
Fear is often a useful emotion. When you become frightened, many physical changes occur within
your body. Your heartbeat and responses quicken; your pupils expand to admit more light; large
quantities of energy-producing adrenaline (肾上腺素)are poured into your bloodstream.
Confronted with a fire or accident, fear can fuel life-saving flight(逃离). Similarly, when
a danger is psychological rather than physical, fear can force you to take self-protective
measures. It is only when fear is disproportional to the danger at hand that it becomes a problem.
Some people are simply more vulnerable to fear than others. A visit to the newborn nursery
of any large hospital will demonstrate that, from the moment of their births, a few fortunate
infants respond calmly to sudden fear-producing situations such as a loudly slammed door. Yet
a neighbor in the next bed may cry out with profound fright. From birth, he or she is more prone
to learn fearful responses be3cause he or she has inherited a tendency to be more sensitive.
Further, psychologists know that our early experiences and relationships strongly shape and
determine our later fears. A young man named Bill, for example, grew up with a father who regarded
each adversity as a temporary obstacle to be overcome with imagination and courage. Using his
father as am model ,Bill came to welcome adventure and to trust his own ability to solve problems.
Phil’s dad, however, spent most of his time trying to protect himself and his family. Afraid
to risk the insecurity of a job change, he remained unhappy in one position. He avoided long
vacations because “the car might break down. “ Growing up in such a home, Phil naturally learned
to become fearful and tense.
31. In the last sentence of Paragraph 1, “ our particular creature’ refers to ______.
A. fear of something B. a fierce beast
C. physical pain D. public ridicule
32. Fear can be useful emotion to us because it can _____.
A. stimulate many physical changes within our body
B. quicken our heartbeat and responses
C. pour large quantities of adrenaline into our bloodstream
D. help us respond quickly to danger and protect ourselves
33. Fear becomes a problem only when ______.
A. the danger is thought greater than it really is
B. the danger is ore psychological than physical
C. one cannot stand the danger

35. Psychologists have found that our later fears are determined largely by our ______.
A. home education B. school education
C. parents’ lifestyle D. early experiences
Passage Two
Sea horses are unusual parents. The female sea horses lay the eggs, but unlike other creatures,
it’s the males that give birth to the young.
Male sea horse have a fold of skin on their bellies that forms a pocket, called a brood pouch.
During the breeding season, the sea horse’s pouch swells to receive eggs. A female sea horse
lays up to 200 eggs at a time in the pouch. Then she swims off, leaving her male partner to care
for the developing eggs and give birth to young sea horses. The female will return every day
to check on her mate and the eggs, but she doesn’t stay long, nor does she take part in the
birth.
It takes from to six weeks for the eggs in the male’s pouch to develop. During this time
the male avoids open water and hides in sea grass. His big pouch makes it difficult form him
to swim, so the male often uses his often uses his tail to grasp a piece of sea grass. Firmly,
gripping the grass, he will stay perfectly still for hours or even days. The male sea horse will
change his color to blend with his surroundings and avoid being seen by predators who will try
to eat him or poke holes in his pouch to get the eggs.
The eggs hatch inside the male’s pouch. When the babies begin moving around , the male
sea horse knows it’s time for them to be born. He grabs a sea grass stem with his tail and begins
rocking, bending his body back and forth.This causes the opening to enlarge until it is wide
enough for the first baby sea horse to shoot out. The father sea horse continues rocking, bending,
and stretching his baby sea horse to shoot our. The father sea horse continues rocking, bending,
and stretching his body so that the rest of the babies can be born. Sometimes he has to press
his pouch against a rock or some stiff seaweed to force the young out.
Sea horse babies are born in groups of five or more. Sometimes it takes two days for the
father sea horse to give birth to all his young. He is very tiered when it’s over.
Soon after giving birth to one brood, the male will approach his mate and show her his empty
pouch. This tells her he is ready to receive eggs again.

Passage Three
When 23- year-old Eric Atienza graduated from college last year, he didn’t have a job. Not
wanting to give up his apartment and move back with his parents, he did what many young Americans
are doing: he signed up with a temp agency, which places workers on short-term jobs. Temporary
workers such as Atienza comprise 20 per5cent of the US workforce. In 1985, 417,000 workers were
classified as temporary help. In 2005, there are more than 2.5 million, according to Labour
Department data.
Using temporary workers allows companies to increase or decrease the number of staff as their
workloads change. It also allows companies to avoid the costs involved in hiring and firing
long-term employees.
Many temp agency owners and career specialists say temping is a good way for recent graduates
to get experience. “Short-term jobs let graduates try out different companies to find the best
fit,” said Pegi Wheatley, owner of McCall Staffing, a San Francisco temp agency.

But things don’t always work out that way. “When I started temping, I had this notion that
a temporary job could turn full-time. It worked for a friend of mine, but that didn’t happen
for me,” , said Atienza, who quickly became bored
