Walking along a lake in the cold winter, Birbal and the king made a bet(打赌)that a man would do anything for money.
The king said, “I don?t think a man would spend an entire night in the cold water of this lake for money.”
Birbal replied, “I?m sure I can find such a person.”
The king asked Birbal to find such a person and said that he would reward the person with a thousand gold coins.
Birbal searched far and wide and finally found a poor man. When he entered the lake, the king had guards around him to make sure that he really did as promised.
The poor man made it. He told the king that there had been a street lamp nearby and that he had kept his attention on the lamp and managed to avoid the cold. The king then said that there would be no reward as he relied on the warmth of the street lamp.
The poor man went to Birbal for help.
The next day, Birbal did not go to court(上朝). The king went to Birbal?s house and see what he was up to.
He found Birbal sitting on the floor near some burning branches and a bowl filled with rice hanging five feet above the fire. The king and his followers couldn?t help but laugh.
The king then said to Birbal, “How can the rice be cooked if it is so far away from the fire?” Birbal answered, “The same way the poor man received heat from a street lamp that was more than two thousand meters away.”
Finally, the king gave the poor man his reward. 21. The poor man used the lamp to _____________. A. keep him warm in the cold water B. light his way around the lake

There are some strange driving laws in different countries. Countries Vietnam Laws If you?re in Vietnam without a Vietnamese driver?s license, you risk a prison sentence of up to three years. Russia In Moscow, if your car is dirty enough to draw dust art, you will be fined about 2,000 rubles (about US 55 dollars). Worse yet, it?s illegal to wash your car by hand in public places – forcing you to take it to one of the few car wash facilities. Thailand Drivers – male or female – can?t drive shirtless whether it?s a car, bus, or a tuk-tuk cab. France France requires its drivers to carry a portable breathalyzer(便携式酒精测量仪) at all times when driving a car.

The law states a driver can be fined if the person “is in an irregular position inside the car or raises

Japan his hand from the steering wheel unnecessarily.” Politeness isn?t just the culture in Japan; it is part of driving laws. Splashing(飞溅) a person by driving through a puddle(水坑) with your car will cost you over US 60 dollars. The country is also strict with its DUI (酒驾) laws – riding with or lending your car to a driver who gets caught drinking and driving can lead to a fine costing thousands of dollars. 25.

C
You can do it!
That?s a better way to motivate (激发) yourself than saying “I can do it, ” according to a new study that shows giving yourself advice and encouragement in the second-person before an upcoming task may actually improve your performance more than first-person self-talk.
5
“People are used to receiving and giving advice in the second-person, and they seem to prefer using the second-person pronoun to encourage themselves,” says study co-author, Dr. Sanda Dolcos, a researcher at the University of Illinois. “Self-advice expressed using ?You? probably enables people to have a broader perspective(观点), consider how others might view the event, and reproduce the kind of encouragements previously received from others.”
For the study, Dr. Dolcos and her colleague, Dr. Dolores, asked 143 undergraduate students to write down advice to themselves before completing a series of puzzles. Half of the students were asked to use the first-person, while the others wrote in the second-person.
What did the researchers find? The students who wrote in the second-person managed to complete more puzzles and appeared to have a more positive attitude?
The researchers also asked the students to write down advice to themselves in relation to exercising more often in the next two weeks. Those who wrote in the second-person, again, reported a more positive attitude toward the task and even planned to do more exercise than the students who referred to themselves in the first-person.
“We were not surprised and had previous research showing that people spontaneously use ?You? in situations that require high levels of self-control and action,” Dolcos said.
But why did the researchers ask students to write down their self-talk instead of saying it out loud? “ Writing as a tool of conversing with oneself has long been used as a therapeutical(治疗的)approach,” Dolcos explained. “However, further research is needed to determine which form of self-advice, written or spoken, is more beneficial.” 29. What did the researchers find? A. Giving oneself advice and encouragement is very useful. B. It is more encouraging to talk to oneself using the second-person. C. First-person self-talk will not improve your performance. D. A good way to motivate yourself is saying “I can do it”. 30. How did the students perform in the experiment? A. The ones who wrote in the first-person had a better attitude. B. The ones who talked to themselves completed the most puzzles.
C. The ones who encouraged themselves by writing in the second-person were better. D. The ones who encouraged themselves in the first-person were more positive than others.
6
31. What does the underlined word “spontaneously” probably mean? A. Against one?s will. B. For one?s own interest.
C. On one?s own initiative (自发的). D. Out of other peoples? feelings.
32. What may the last two paragraphs imply? A. Writing is a good style of conversation for oneself.
B. Writing can cure many diseases, and it has been proven by experts. C. Whether written self-advice is better still needs to be tested.
D. Doctors prefer their patients to say things out loud when having problems.
D
The latest fashion in Japan is posing for photos with your hand pressed against your cheek as if you have toothache. The “cavity(牙疼) pose” is said to make the model?s face appear attractive, slimmer and smaller, which is considered more beautiful in Japan. The craze is sweeping Japanese social media, as well as fashion magazine front covers.
Just recently a model of a popular culture magazine, NYLON, did a pose which looked as if she had toothache. Twitter user, Okoge, spotted it among a range of similar magazines, with front cover models all doing the same pose. Okoge posted photos of the front cover models all with the exact same toothache pose, on the social media site, writing, “Does everyone have cavities?” The image has since been re-tweeted more than 35,000 times, but this is anything but an isolated incident(单一事件). Twitter and Instagram are going crazy for the pose, too.
The name, which means cavity pose, is called “mushiba no poozu” or “mushibapoozu” in Japanese. Some people also refer to it as the” mushibagaitaipoozu”, the “cavity hurts pose”, “mushibamitainapoozu” or “looks like a cavity pose”, or even, “mushibaninattapoozu” or “I got a cavity pose”.
According to the magazine, Kotaku, such photographs first appeared on Twitter last year in Japan. Many Japanese people said they are doing the cavity pose. And in only a few weeks, the trend has spread to art, popular cartoons and even national magazines.
There have been more and more photos cropping up online from earlier this year, but whether the trend will stand the test of time remains to be seen.

33. What is the strange thing regarding fashion models in Japan, according to the passage? A. They are very dissatisfied with the shape of their face. B. Most of them have an occupational disease, such as toothache. C. They are competing to appear on fashion magazine front covers.
D. They like doing the toothache pose when being photographed. 34. For what purpose did Okoge post photos on the Internet? A. To share interesting things with people. B. To get more people to visit his Twitter page. C. To show his sympathy for toothache patients. D. To teach people how to take photographs. 35. It is not certain ____________________. A. why the “cavity pose” becomes so popular B. when the “cavity pose” happened on the Internet C. how many names of “cavity pose” there are
D. whether people will continue to like the “cavity pose” 第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)
