8.Nowadays,studying abroad is popular in China with many rich parents.They would rather send their children abroad to receive education than let them be educated in China.
As every coin has two sides,studying abroad is not an exception (例外).There are advantages for people to attend schools abroad.In the first place,he can use the foreign language in his daily life so that his ability in the second language may be greatly improved,as it is obvious that there is no better chance to improve the second language than living in the country where it is spoken.While studying in a foreign country,he will most likely meet many others from overseas and it is possible to make friends from all over the world.This is not only exciting on the social level,but could lead to important overseas contacts in his career as well.He can get familiar with the latest knowledge in science and make use of the firstrate facilities available.In this way,there is every chance that he is able to widen his horizon and broaden his mind.
Of course,attending schools abroad may bring about a series of problems.The most serious problem is language barrier.Most of the students who go abroad don't have enough skills in the language spoken there.As a result,on arriving there,they will find it difficult to understand what the teachers say.Besides,for lack of knowledge of the customs of the local people,they may constantly run into trouble in dealing with various situations.
In conclusion,given an opportunity to attend a school abroad,one must consider both sides of the factors carefully before making up his mind.

9.Ten years ago,I used to be very fit.(36)C I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks.In those days,I didn't earn very much.I had a job in an office.It wasn't a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing.(37)A The pay was better,but the hours were a lot longer.I bought a car and drove to work every day.I began to take people out to lunch.And I began to put on weight,too.I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn't have any time for things like that any more.
There's a lot of stress (壓力) in my job.Perhaps that's why I started drinking more than I used to.For example,I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home,but then I started filling my glass to the top.Then I had another glass,and then another.(38)E I never used to smoke at all.
Two months ago,I had a heart attack.At first I just couldn't believe it."I'm too young."I said.Luckily it wasn't very serious.I was in hospital a few days and they did a lot of tests.(39)G He also advised me to work less and get more exercise.But I just haven't any time!(40)B
Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job.Perhaps I could do something like I used to do.But if I do that,I won't earn as much.I have a family to support.I have to think of them,too.I just don't know what I should do.What do you think?
A.Then,about eight years ago,I got a much better job.
B.My job takes everything out of me!
C.I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends.
D.Drinking became part of my life.
E.I started smoking a lot,too.
F.Ten years later,I lost my first job.

6.Although many Chinese students say their knowledge of English grammar is good,most would admit that their spoken English is poor.(36)E However,their spoken English does not have to remain poor.I would suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.
First,(37)B.Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary.However,you can speak with a limited vocabulary if your attitude is positive.Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.
Second,(38)G.Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous.Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY.You want to get your message across,to talk to someone in English,as quickly and as well as you can,even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense,but it doesn't matter because the person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowance for any mistakes he hears.
The third,(39)A.You have one mouth but two ears!All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.
Fourth,(40)C.Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English,they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their spoken English always remains poor.If you have this proactive outlook,then you will see English opportunities wherever you go.
A.not enough attention is paid to listening.
B.they fail to find suitable words to express themselves because of limited vocabulary.
C.most Chinese students are not active language learners.
D.They are so stupid that they cannot finish their necessary homework in time.
E.Whenever I speak to Chinese students they always say,"My spoken English is poor."
F.it is no use crying over spilt milk.
G.they are afraid of making mistake.

13.There is an English saying,"(71)F"Until recently,few people took the saying seriously.Now however,doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body.(72)G Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body.People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart,blood pressure,breathing and muscles.It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise.(73)D If laughter exercises the body,it must be beneficial.
Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body.In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs.The group that tolerated the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program.(74)C
(75)BThey have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing,making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.

A.Laughter can surely last one's life.
B.As a result of these discoveries,some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics,in which they help to improve their patients'condition by encouraging them to laugh.
C.The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain.
D.It increases blood pressure,makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works several groups of muscles in the face,the stomach,and even the feet.
E.They have proved that laughter can really cure any disease if people keep a good state of mind.
F.Laughter is the best medicine.
G.They have found that laughter really can improve people's health.

10.A student's life is never easy.(36)G A lot of preparations are needed so you can be sure to go back home with a diploma and a bright future waiting for you.The following are some basic things you need to do before even seizing that passport and boarding on the plane.
●Knowing the country.
You shouldn't bother researching the country's hottest tourist spots or historical places.You won't go there as a tourist,but as a student.It'll be helpful to read the most important points in their history and to read up on their culture.(37)C You surely don't want to face legal problems,especially if you're away from home.
●Studying their language.
Don't expect that you can graduate abroad without knowing even the basics of the language.Before leaving your home country,take online lessons to at least master some of their words and sentences.(38)D  Doing this will also prepare you in communicating with those who can't speak English.
●(39)B
Check the conversion(兌換)of your money to their local currency,set up your bank account so you can use it there,get an insurance,and find an apartment.The Internet or your intended school will be very helpful in finding an apartment and helping you understand local currency.
Remember,you're not only carrying your own reputation but your country's reputation as well.If you act foolishly,people there might think that all of your country men are foolish as well.(40)E.

A.Packing your clothes.
B.Preparing for other needs.
C.Most importantly,read about their laws.
D.This will be useful in living and studying there.
E.That would surely be a very bad start for your study abroad program.
F.Going with their trends will keep it from being too obvious that you're a foreigner.
G.And it is even more difficult if you will have to complete your study in a foreign land.
