However, it soon turned into a sudden feeling of being doubtful of the idea of participating in a great cause. The thought of working for a state governments Ministry of Women and Child Welfare project led me to challenge my own potential of enriching the childrens lives.It struck me that regardless of the contribution to the lives of some 42 orphan girls, who had undergone countless painful experiences in their childhood, it was more important and convincing to at least try and be able to change their lives in some small way.Our guide put huge faith in me and, therefore, assigned me the new task of directing an- other team of 8 boys. As days passed by, my team of boys told their individual life stories and what followed was not a feeling of sympathy but an admiration and respect for their enduring nature of still loving life as it came and facing it with great courage.Teaching them about various general life skills made up the most part of the social task. I gradually started realizing peoples power of giving back to the society. There is no doubt that both evil and good exist but it was necessary to tell these boys about how they can not only survive but do well in their lives in this cruelly petitive world. I am glad I could fill this aspect of life in them.It touched me a lot, especially after having seen so many tough times in life. The best part about this whole projects for me, was a two-way learning process and it convinced me of my abilities to add to other people s efforts of goodness and kindness. It fills my heart with a lot of joy to exchange some acts of kindness. I believe every person has some social responsibility!24. What does the underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refers to?A.

Over the course of a 40-year career, that would amount to about 34,000, according to Nationwide Current Account, which carried out the survey.Men generally tend to be unhappier than women about spending money at work, but women are more likely to feel pressured into paying out for work-related items. 42% of men were unhappy about spending money at work Christmas parties, pared with 34% of women. But one in five women said they felt under pressure to spend money at work Christmas parties, pared with just 12% of men,Overall more than a quarter of people surveyed said they felt pressured when it came to contributing towards birthday and leaving gifts, with 27% of people saying this about gifts for colleagues who were leaving.Nearly 32% said they felt pressured into contributing money to help their colleagues, charity fund raising efforts.Alan Oliver, Nationwides head of external affairs, said, “Working in an office can be an expensive business, especially in big teams.

Over time, too little deep sleep may also do harm to your heart by contributing to high blood pressure, a new study suggests.Healthy young and middle-aged adults spend about 25 percent of their sleeping hours in the stages known as deep sleep. This sleep stage has been shown to be important for memory and other mental performance. The new study adds to the growing evidence that deep sleep is also essential to our metabolism (新陳代謝) and heart health.The research should be considered “exploratory”, and it doesnt prove a direct link between sleep patterns and high blood pressure. But it suggests that wan important aspect of successful aging is the preservation of good sleep quality”. Older people tend to get less deep sleep as they age, find fighting this natural decline through healthy sleep habits, for examplecould be an “extraordinarily important strategy” for heading off high blood pressure.Sleep problems have been linked to high blood pressure before. Sleep apnoea, a disorder in which a person wakes up struggling for breath time and time again, is strongly linked to high blood pressure, though its not clear whether the disorder causes high blood pressure.Susan Redline, a professor of sleep medicine, says going to bed and waking up at the same time each day, especially keeping away from alcohol and tobacco before going to bed and other good “sleep hygiene (衛(wèi)生)” can help people sleep longer.However, the researchers followed the men s sleep only on a single nights, and they likewise measured blood pressure just once or twice. Therefore, the study failed to rule out factors besides sleep quality, such as diet or medical conditions, which may independently contribute to high blood pressure. More research will be needed to address these shortings, the study notes. Nor is it clear whether habitual sleep loss has long-term effects on overall sleep quality and deep sleep.32. What effect does lack of deep sleep have on people?A. Their hearts stop functioning.B. Their metabolism always accelerates.C They are less easily hurt in body and spirit.D. They may perform worse physically and mentally.33. What does the underlined word “apnoea” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Habit.B. Medicine.C. A condition where somebody stops breathing temporarily.D. A disease which somebody suffers from because of overwork.34. Which of the following is typically good sleep hygiene according to the text?A. Getting up soon after waking up.B. Going to bed early by taking sleep medicine.C. Avoiding alcohol and tobacco before bedtime.D. Trying to sleep as long as possible every day.35. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Major findings of the study.B. Some limitations of the study.C. Different factors affecting sleep quality.D. Some possible causes of high blood pressure.第二節(jié)（共5小題;每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空內(nèi)處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。Today, the trend in music production is shifting more and more toward home studios. _36_.

Once thats done, various mastering techniques are used to put the finishing touches on your song. _40_ And if you don t know what youre doing, you can easily make things worsen rather than better.A. The recording processB. The bining processC. To put it simply, mastering is hardD. Typically, editing is made up of five mon tasksE. Mixing is an art form in itself and can be done in many waysF.
