Have you ever tried to draw a straight line, only to find it turns out all wrong? Or, wanted to show   36    at a party but the song you’d practised so many times suddenly   37   more difficult?

    I've had both these  38   ． As a Senior 3 student, I have to   39   many exams．    Each time, I enter one, thinking  “I   40   fail this time． ”, I get a low mark．

    But don't be surprised --- it's not   41   we don't try, or do enough preparation,  42   take it seriously． On the contrary, it is because we put ourselves under too much   43  ． It is thinking: “I must…” that makes us taste the terrible flavor of   44  ．

    We often   45    to our friends: “Don't be too hard   46   yourself!”  But when we   47   our own goals, we may not listen to our own advice．

    In doing so, we are making our path to success increasingly difficult．

    So why not   48    this crazy pursuit to get the best? Just face the problem   49   before you with a calm mind, enjoy the hard work and you will succeed．

   In my opinion,  50  a calm state of mind is a skill for life． For people who want to succeed,  51   this is a very important lesson．

   So   52    time when you're trying to draw a straight line or   53  a performance, tell yourself: “If I can just do it better than last time, it's a   54  ． ”

   Keep a calm state of mind, and you will be happy   55   you succeed or fail．

I was waiting for a phone call from my agent． He had left a message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled． I called him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and that he would call me later． So I waited and waited, but there was still no call． Three hours passing by, I became more and more impatient． I was certain that my agent didn’t care about my work, and he didn’t care about me． I was overcome with that thought． I started to shout at the phone, “Let me wait, will you?

    I stood watching her, speechless． What on earth． ． ． ?

    She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the rest of the house, “Now hear this! All objects in this room – if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go!”

    Then she turned to me, kissed me and said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn how to take control． ” With that, she left the room．

    After watching a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight, I noticed that something in my mood had changed． I was laughing． How could I have trouble with that phone? Her antics helped me realize I had been driven crazy by small things． Twenty minutes later my agent did call． I was able to listen to him and talk to him calmly．

If you still know little about the “IMF”, it’s time you started to read about it, for it has been a hot issue of the whole world．

The International Monetary Fund is one of the international financial(金融的) institutions, which works for global growth and economic stability． It provides policy advice and financing to members in economic difficulties and also works with developing nations to help them achieve economic stability and reduce poverty． The“ IMF” currently has a near-global membership of 185 countries．

What is the relationship between violence and sports? Psychologists say that there are many reasons for violence at sports events． One is alcohol． Many fans drink a lot at games． When people drink, they are more likely to do abnormal things． Psychologist Dennis Brock says, “Quiet people become loud． Normally nonviolent people become destructive． ”

David Sampson, a sports sociologist, says, “These are often celebratory riots— a large number of very happy people mixed in with large amounts of alcohol． They don’t often seem dangerous in the beginning, but things get violent quickly． ”

Another reason for violence at sports events is the crowd． When individuals are in a large group of people, they can lose their sense of personal responsibility． Edward Hirt, a social Psychologist, says that research shows that people do things in crowds that they would never do alone． People in crowds feel anonymous — no one knows who they are． Crowds also make people feel powerful． They stop making personal decisions． They just follow the crowd． Social psychologists call this a “mob mentality． ”

Dave Zarifis, head of public safety says, “Some people don’t even come to celebrate． They want to drink hard and make trouble． Someone does something stupid, and it grows from there． You get a mob mentality． People think it’s OK to do almost anything． They think, ‘There are so many of us and not enough of them． ’ ”

Social psychologist Dr． Sharon Kennedy says that there are some things officials can do to prevent violence． Making sure that an area is not overcrowded is very important． Officials should also think of games as “big parties． ” Then they will prepare differently． Kennedy says that in Great Britain they are controlling the problem with cameras in all the stadiums． “When you know someone is watching, you are much less likely to behave badly． ”

71．Which of the following best gives the main idea of the first two paragraphs? 

    A．There’s a connection between violence and sports

    B．One cause of violence at sports events is alcohol．

    C．There are many reasons for violence at sports events．

    D．David Sampson and Dennis Brock have the same opinion．

72．Which of the following does NOT belong to a “mob mentality”?

    A．“I must drink some alcohol to stop myself feeling shy． ”

    B．“ It’s safe to do what many people are doing． ”

    C．“There are so many of us and not enough of them． ”

    D．“ No one knows I’m doing this． ”

73．How many experts are quoted by the writer of this passage?

    A．Two．          B. Four．            C．Three．       D. Five．

74．The last paragraph is mainly about ______．

    A． how to turn games into big parties

    B． why to install cameras in stadiums

    C． how to prevent violence at sports events

    D． how to avoid oneself behaving badly

75．What lesson can we learn from this passage?

    A． Never drink any alcohol no matter where you are．

    B． Whenever you are watching a game, you should keep quiet．

    C． Never follow blindly no matter how many people are doing something．

    D． Be careful when you are at a stadium because there are cameras there．

The need for love is deeply rooted in the human psyche(精神，心灵)． Love is a way of overcoming the feeling of human separateness． Separateness, according to psychologists, means to be cut off, helpless and alone in the world． It is the source of all anxiety．

                   ． It can be selfish and possessive, or unselfish and giving．Abraham Maslow distinguishes between two kinds of love: B-love and D-love． B-love or “being-love” means love for another person: an unselfish love not dependent upon your own needs． D-love or “deficiency-love” is a selfish possessive love which is based upon someone else’s ability to satisfy your needs．

D-love is conditional: it depends upon whether personal needs continue to be met…． But B-love is unconditional: it depends not upon what you do, but upon who

you are． Furthermore, as it depends on who you are, it is possible only when you allow yourself to be known to the other person．

The psychologist Erich Fromm also distinguishes between two types of love, namely, immature love, called by him symbiotic union(共生体), and mature love． Symbiotic union is an immature love based upon the satisfaction of needs and is similar to Maslow’s concept of D-love．

Mature love, on the other hand, is a relationship that allows individuals to retain (保持) their independence, their identity, and their integrity． In mature love people can overcome their sense of separateness yet continue to be themselves． The immature lover would say, “I love you because I need you． ” the mature one: “I need you because I love you． ”

All worries and fears result from it．

78． Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with a proper sentence． (within 7 words)
