18．Erica Wills admits an addiction left her poor and almost ruined her life．But it wasn't drink or drugs．The 21-year-old former model was addicted to exercise．（50）GErica only realized she had become a gym addict when she decided to take a night off to celebrate her 21st birthday．
"I wasted a whole year of my life doing nothing but exercise，"she says．（51）B"I thought we'd see more of each other if we worked out together．"When that relationship ended，she fell in love with the thrill of keeping her body in tip-top condition．
"Every evening，I left the insurance company where I worked and dashed off to the club，"says Erica．"（52）D  But not me．All I would do is rushing off to the gym for five-hour sessions．I went through the lot each night-aerobics，a weights circuit in the gym，then a swim．I would get home after 11pm，have something to eat and fall into bed．It was the same every weekday．On Saturdays，I might spend even longer in the gym．"
"I just poured all my money into the gym．Membership and classes came to around?100a
month，plus I had to buy clothing and equipment．（53）A
"I didn't realize I had lost all my friends until my 21st birthday came round．I decided to take one evening off to go out with them．（54）E Then someone told me I hadn't been a very good friend for a year，so why should anyone bother turning up？In fact，just one girlfriend came with me for a drink on my 21st birthday．That was the turning point for me．I cut right down on the gym and tried to pick up where I had left off with people．"

A．I didn't buy anything else all year-I couldn't afford to．
B．I first went to a health club when I dated a bodybuilder．
C．I only went out with my friends two or three times a week．
D．Anyone else aged 20would be out with friends，having a laugh．
E．But when I started calling people，everyone said they couldn't make it．
F．My old girlfriends were beauty queens and dancers，and I am naturally competitive．
G．Her hobby turned into a year of aerobic hell as she spent all her spare time in the gym．

分析 Erica除了工作，就是去健身，時間和錢都花在了健身上，成了一個健身迷，失去了朋友，買不起其它的物品．最終，她意識到要減少鍛煉時間，多和朋友聯(lián)系．

解答 50--54．GBDAE
50．G 考查上下文理解判斷能力．根據(jù)下文Erica only realized she had become a gym addict when she decided to take a night off to celebrate her 21st birthday可知，Erica發(fā)現(xiàn)她成為一個健身迷，前文應(yīng)是：她把她的所有空閑時間都用來健身了．故選G．
51．B 考查上下文理解判斷能力．根據(jù)下文I thought we'd see more of each other if we worked out together可知，Erica覺得兩人一起鍛煉就能更多地見到彼此，前文應(yīng)是：當(dāng)我和一個健美運(yùn)動員約會時，我第一次去了健身俱樂部．故選B．
52．D 考查上下文理解判斷能力．根據(jù)前文"Every evening，I left the insurance company where I worked and dashed off to the club，"says Erica及下文 But not me可知，下班后Erica就直沖到健身俱樂部，其他20歲的人都會和朋友一起出去，但她不是．故選D．
53．A 考查上下文理解判斷能力．根據(jù)上文Membership and classes came to around?100a
month，plus I had to buy clothing and equipment可知，她把所有的錢都用來健身了，下文應(yīng)是：買不了其他的東西，故選A．
54．E 考查上下文理解判斷能力．根據(jù)下文Then someone told me I hadn't been a very good friend for a year可知，有人告訴Erica她一年都沒有作為一個好朋友出現(xiàn)，現(xiàn)在為什么要別人出現(xiàn)呢？上文應(yīng)是：但是當(dāng)我打電話叫人時，所有人都說去不了．故選E．

點(diǎn)評 七選五題型看似簡單，實(shí)際上有時完全作對并不容易，需要方法和分析能力及足夠的耐力，有必要進(jìn)行專門練習(xí)．首先，快速瀏覽一遍七個備選答案，先確定哪個選項(xiàng)適合放在文章的什么位置．其次，快速瀏覽文章，確定文章體裁，抓住文章結(jié)構(gòu)，分析篇章結(jié)構(gòu)，找出各段的主題句或主旨大意．其三，注意各選項(xiàng)中出現(xiàn)的句子銜接手段，尋找句中銜接標(biāo)志詞，七選五備選答案中有兩個多余的選項(xiàng)，會對文章中兩個空的選擇構(gòu)成干擾，這時要特別細(xì)致地比對相似選項(xiàng)．最后，用代入法，檢查答案是否合理，將所有選擇答案放回空白處，通讀全文，檢查文章內(nèi)容是否語義連貫合理、緊扣主題，語篇結(jié)構(gòu)是否通順連貫、具有一致性、合乎邏輯，寫作思路是否清晰明了，格式以及用語是否恰當(dāng)貼切，從而判斷選擇的答案是否正確．

6．There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling．This is，however，a misunderstanding．No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill．There are，however，many different ideas about how to teach it，or how much priority （優(yōu)先） it must be given over general language development and writing ability．
If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher's interest，clearly a bright child will be likely to"play safe"，this is to say，to avoid using words he is not sure of．He will tend to write only words within his spelling range，choosing to avoid adventurous language．That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability．In this way，students will be able to express their ideas more freely．
I was once shocked to read on the bottom，of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience："This word is terrible!There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible （難以辨認(rèn)的）．"It may have been a sharp criticism（批評） of the pupil's technical abilities in writing，but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had failed to read the essay，which contained some beautiful expressions of the child's deep feelings．The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors，but if his priorities had centered on the child's ideas，an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement．

13．Peer（同齡人）Pressure
Peer pressure is just part of the challenges in life．（36）C If you need further guidance，this article might help you．It provides three effective tips to deal with it：
Be with friends who respect your beliefs
You can go out with people who accept and respect the things you believe in and those who you know you can share your interests with．It is all right to be choosy with friends because you just want what is best for them and you．（37）F  You are just exhibiting what you know is right and good for both sides．Your friends will understand you for that．They can drag you away from discrimination and you can be confident that they will not leave you for your stand in life．
（38）B
When you are driven by so many peer pressures，you can always stay away from it．You can actually decide not to be one of them．When you have decided on it，learn to be firm with your decision．（39）GThey should know that you cannot be forced to do certain things because you are strong and firm with what you believe in．
Learn how to say no
Learning to say no is one big factor to deal with some pressures from all of your friends．When you are convinced to do something you know that can only destroy you or ruin you，learn to say no．（40）E  You cannot just say yes to anything．You have a functional mind and you know what is best for you．So learn to say no even if saying no means losing your friends．

A．Don't blame others．
B．Have a firm decision．
C．You should know how to deal with it．
D．You can always deal with it positively．
E．Just be straightforward and say it without hesitation．
F．This does not mean you are being selfish or you are being self-centered．
G．This can make them believe that you cannot just be driven by any other thing．

Tired of traffic jams？Here are some tips that can help you to calm down in a traffic jam．
Listen to a CD audio book
It's a good idea to keep several audio books in your car．（63）G  Listening to an exciting story is more interesting than sitting silently and being bored．
Sing loudly
If you begin getting angry because of a long traffic jam，turn your CD player on or radio   up．（64）E   Imagine you're a wonderful singer and the audience is listening to you in admiration．Your stress will disappear．

Have a snack（零食）
Keeping a tasty snack in the car is especially good for waiting in traffic jams．Choose  what you like most of all，so you will look forward to traffic jams to have a chance to eat the delicious snack．（66）C    In that case，time is the last thing to worry about．
Argue with the radio talk show host
Find a station with a radio talk show．（67）D    If you disagree，you can show your anger．Don't be afraid to call their ideas stupid．Only make sure that the car windows are closed so no one may hear you．
Sitting in a traffic jam can be very stressful but next time you can use these simple tips，and you won't notice how long you have been waiting and soon you will be on your way．

By eating properly and exercising regularly，I can keep my body at a proper weight and keep healthy．By spending time with my friends，I can keep my mind as well as my body happy．These things sound easy to do，but not many people can manage them（75）F．
