27、You feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving. If you give and give without making time to fill your own needs， then it’s likely you will burn out， or feel upset. When you take and take without giving anything back， you never feel a sense of achievement，so you are always searching for ways to fill the void in your life.

The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving so as to achieve real happiness is to know and then live by your values. I break values up into two groups which I call “being” and “having” values. Your “being” values are the character traits(特征)of the ideal person you would like to be. An example of some “being” values are： kind， loving， generous， inspirational， peaceful， wise and even powerful. By acting on these values， you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by “being” a positive role model. Mastering “being” these character traits becomes your life purpose.

Your “having” values are the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be companionship， achievement， support， “being” valued or financial security. This is what you receive. You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life.

When you make a commitment to live by your “being” values， it becomes easier to make conscious choices rather than reactionary(保守的) ones. If your usual habit is to complain about your problems， you could choose to think and act like a calm person. A calm person might go for a walk， meditate(沉思)， or set a time limit before responding. If your usual pattern is to worry， you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person. In other words， you would act like the person you choose to be—this is the key to personal power.

When you choose to act on your values， you not only feel good about yourself， but you reinforce(增强)your chosen beliefs. Over time acting in this way changes how you see the world， and in turn the way other people think of you.

【1】The underlined word “void” in Paragraph 1 probably means   .

A. a feeling of emptiness

B. a loss of power

C. a lack of energy

D. a state of being confused

【2】According to the text， by acting on your own “being” values， you will   .

A. gain a lot of power

B. fill your own needs

C. seek all human virtues

D. form positive personality

【3】Which of the following does NOT belong to your “having” values？

A. Your success in the competition.

B. The support from your friends.

C. Your own peaceful mind.

D. The friendship with others.

【4】What can be inferred from the text？

A. “Having” values are better than “being” values.

B. The way other people think of you decides who you are.

C. A calm person does not choose to complain easily.

D. A responsible person does not care about financial security.

【5】The main purpose of this passage is to   .

A. persuade the readers to make a commitment

B. inform the readers how to be truly happy

C. explain to the readers what personal values are

D. instruct the readers how to make wise choices

28、   Online programs to fight depression are already commercially available. While they sound efficient and cost-saving, a recent study reports that they’re not effective, primarily because depressed patients are not likely to engage with them or stick with them.

The study looked at computer-assisted cognitive(认知的) behavioral therapy (CBT) and found that it was no more effective in treating depression than the usual care patients receive from a primary care doctor.

Traditional CBT is considered an effective form of talk therapy for depression, helping people challenge negative thoughts and change the way they think in order to change their mood and behaviors. However, online CBT programs have been gaining popularity, with the attraction of providing low-cost help wherever someone has access to a computer.

A team of researchers from the University of York conducted a randomized(随机的) control trial with 691 depressed patients from 83 physician practices across England. The patients were split into three groups: one group received only usual care from a physician while the other two groups received usual care from a physician plus one of computerized CBT programs. Participants were balanced across the three groups for age, sex, educational background, severity and duration of depression, and use of antidepressants(抗抑郁药).

After four months, the patients using the computerized CBT programs had no improvement in depression levels over the patients who were only getting usual care from their doctors.

“It’s an important, cautionary note that we shouldn’t get too carried away with the idea that a computer system can replace doctors and therapists.” says Christopher Dowrick, a professor of primary medical care at the University of Liverpool. “We do still need the human touch or the human interaction, particularly when people are depressed.”

“Being depressed can mean feeling in your own small, negative, dark world,” Dowrick says. Having a person, instead of a computer, reach out to you is particularly important in combating that sense of isolation. “When you’re emotionally vulnerable(脆弱的), you’re even more in need of a caring human being.” he says.

【1】Why have online CBT programs been increasingly popular?

A.Because of their easy and inexpensive access by patients.

B.Because of their effectiveness in fighting depression.

C.Because of their recommendation by primary care doctors.

D.Because of their attraction of changing mood and behavior.

【2】What is the conclusion of the experiment done by researchers at the University of York?

A.The online programs are more advanced than regular care from physicians.

B.The combination of traditional CBT and computerized CBT is most effective.

C.Online CBT programs are as ineffective as regular care from physicians.

D.Online CBT programs have no advantages over regular care from physicians.

【3】Which of the following can best convey Professor Dowrick’s advice on online programs?

A.They should be used to help people touch these patients.

B.They should not be ignored in primary care.

C.Their effectiveness should not be overestimated.

D.Their use should be encouraged by doctors.

【4】What is more important to an emotionally vulnerable person?

A.A positive state of mind. B.An advanced CBT program.

C.A devoted doctor. D.Human interaction.

32、阅读下面短文, 根据所给情节进行续写, 使之构成一个完整的故事。

I was born in London, England, and lived there with my mother until I was about eight years old. To find a better life, she went to Chicago and left me with friends in London until she got settled enough to send for me.

Meanwhile, back in England, I was getting into trouble. I had always felt like an outsider, different from the other kids. They didn’t want to play with me. That made me mad, so I got into fights and ended up getting expelled (开除) for being a danger to the other kids at my school. The people I was staying with were upset with me and felt they couldn’t manage me. So, they sent me to a home for kids — kind of a boarding school. I felt alone and bored, the food was terrible, and I really missed my mother. Finally, she sent for me.

The weather was different, my school was different, the country was different, but some things were still the same—I was still getting into fights. Kids picked on me about my accent, the color of my skin, my grades or whatever. I was different, still left out. It didn’t matter; I hated getting picked on, and I let them know it — with my fists. All through grades seven and eight, I was sent to the principal’s office so often that he and I became friends. Instead of punishing me, he advised me that I should be better off using the energy I had in more positive ways and encouraged me to play football and basketball after school. He also suggested that I check out boxing — maybe I could learn to use my fists in a meaningful way instead of being on the destructive path I seemed to be headed for.
