Valentine’s Day was the time my father chose to show his love for the special people in his life. Over the years I fondly (天真的) thought 36 him as my “Valentine man”.
My first recollection of the _37_ he could bring to Valentine’s Day came when I was six. That morning at the breakfast table I found a card and a gift-wrapped package at my chair. The card was 38 “Love, Dad” and the gift was a ring with a small piece of red glass to 39 my birthstone, a ruby (紅寶石). There is 40 difference between red glass and rubies to a child of six, and I remember 41 that ring with pride that all the cards in the world 42 not surpass (超越).
43 I grew older, the gifts gave 44 to heart-shaped boxes filled with my 45 _ chocolate and always included a 46 card signed “Love, Dad”. In those years my thank-you became 47 of a perfunctory (敷衍) response. The cards seemed less 48 , and I took for granted that the Valentine would 49 be there. I had 50 my hopes and dreams in receiving cards and gifts from “significant others” and “Love Dad” just didn’t seem quite 51 .
His final card remains on my desk today. It’s a 52 of how special fathers can be and how important it has been to me over the years to know that I had a father who continued a 53_ of love with simple acts of understanding and an ability to express happiness over the people in his life.
Those things never 54 , nor does the memory of a man who never 55 being my Valentine.

Jan. 7, 2008--- French president Nicolas Sarkozy would marry his girlfriend, former supermodel Carla Bruni on FeB．8 or 9, media reported on Monday.
The report said that in December--- less than a month after Sarkozy met Bruni--- he gave her a heart-shaped diamond engagement ring.
Carla Bruni, Italian singer, former model and girlfriend of France’ president Nicolas Sarkozy, holds the hands of her son Aurelien while wearing a pink heart-shaped diamond ring during a visit to the ancient Jordanian ruins of Petra Jan. 5, 2008．French newspapers reported that Sarkozy would marry her early in February.
Sarkozy and his wife of 11 years, Cecilia, divorced in October, 2007．Their marital (婚姻)problems became well known in May 2005 when she appeared in public at the side of event organizer Richard Attias.
A marriage to Bruni, a onetime star of the catwalks who is now a singer, would be Sarkozy’s third : He divorced his first wife, Marie, in the late 80s--- after he had met and befriended Cecilia.
Political analyst Dominique Moisi said that Sarkozy’s proposal to Bruni could be part of his desire to head off any future arguments, and the speed of their visit to the ancient Jordanian ruins of Petra Jan. 5, 2008 would fit with his personality as a busy man in a hurry.
“Apparently, he’s going to marry her, so the problem will be behind him,” Moisi saiD．“He will increase the opportunities to travel with her, and to say to the French, ‘you see, I must remarry… you need a first lady.’ ”
Bruni, an Italian-born French citizen, has dated famous men including Mick Jagger and Donald Trump. She has also reportedly linked to singer Eric Clapton and actor Vincent Perez.

Travelers and airlines have a deal. In exchange for transporting them safely, passengers agree to give up a great deal of freedom of movement. Once aboard a plane, there’s no getting off until the crew says so. People have to sit when they’re told, buckle up seat belts on command. In return, passengers expect the airlines to take care of them.
But several failures this past holiday travel season suggest that Congress needs to set some ground rules to enforce this deal for people unreasonably stranded on aircraft. Because extraordinary delays on planes can be dangerous for the handicapped, seriously ill, elderly or small children. Flying, particularly around the holidays, invariably entails a risk of delay.
Take the passengers of American Flight 1348, whose flight from San Francisco to Dallas was diverted by bad weather to Austin, Tex. Obviously, weather is out of human control, and airlines are justified to delay on the side of the safety rather than haste when it comes to bad weather or mechanical difficulties. But there is delay, and then there is detention. The passengers on flight 1348 were trapped on the plane after it landed for another eight hours. They say there was nothing to eat but a box of pretzels, and the toilets began to stink. Passengers say they overfloweD．The airline says they didn’t. The difference is not worth debating.
Passengers from that flight have posted their complaints at www. Strandedpassengers. blogspot. com. Among the common-sense is that airlines should allow passengers to get back to a gate when a plane has been sitting on the land for more than three hours. When delays are that long, passengers’ essential needs―food, water, medical attention and sanitation―― must be met.
Following a similar incident in 1999, the airlines managed to avoid legal punishment through a voluntary customer service commitment. Congress should hold hearings to enforce airlines to step up their service and issue some requirements.
60．The writer wrote this passage in order to ______.
A．complain the poor service he received during a flight.
B．reveal the poor management of some airline companies
C．hope related laws and requirements are issued to ensure rights of airline passengers
D．report some airline delays during the holiday season
61．Which of the following underlined words from the passage may mean differently from the other three?
A．stranded B．detention C．trapped D．diverted
62．We may know from the passage that______
A．the American Airlines Flight 1348 was delayed because of mechanical difficulties
B．the passengers on the American Airlines Flight 1348 were trapped for eight hours
C．the passengers did nothing after their unreasonable delay and cold treatment aboard
D．the American Airlines Flight 1348 failed to meet the needs of the passengers aboard
63．About airlines’ delay, the writer believes all EXCEPT that_______.
A．It is understandable if there happens to be bad weather or mechanical problems
B．a(chǎn)irlines should forbid any movement of passengers to guarantee their safety
C．delays may endangers some disabled and sick people
D．when delay happens, passengers’ basic needs should be guaranteed
C
Expressions about water are mostly as common as water itself.
The expression “to be in hot water” is one of them. It is a very old expression. Hot water was used five hundred years ago to mean being in trouble. One story says it got that meaning from the custom of throwing extremely hot water down on enemies attacking a castle. That no longer happens. But we still get “in hot water”. When we are in hot water, we are in trouble. It can be any kind of trouble, serious or not so serious. A person who breaks a law can be in hot water with the police. A young boy can be in hot water with his mother if he walks in the house with dirty shoes.
“Being in deep water” is almost the same as being in hot water. When you are in deep water, you are in a difficult position. Imagine a person who can not swim being thrown in water over his head. You are in deep water when you are facing a problem that you don’t have the ability to solve. You can be in deep water, for example, if you invest (投資) in stocks (股票) without knowing anything about the stock market.
“To keep your head above water” is a colorful expression that means staying out of debt. A company seeks to keep its head above water during economic hard times. A man who loses his job tries to keep his head above water until he finds a new job.
“Water over the dam” is another expression about past events. It is something that is finished, and cannot be changed. The expression comes from the idea that water has floated over a dam and cannot be brought back again. When a friend is troubled by a mistake she has made, you might tell her to forget about it. You say it is water over the dam.
Another common expression “to hold water” is about the strength or weakness of an idea or opinion that you may be arguing about. It probably comes from a way of testing the condition of a container. If it can hold water, it is strong and has no holes in it. If your argument can hold water, it is strong and does not have any holes; if it does not hold water, then, it is weak and not worth debating.
“Throwing cold water” also is an expression that deals with ideas or suggestions. For example, you want to buy a new car because the old one has some problems, but your wife throws cold water on the idea because she says a new car costs too much.
64．Don’t cheat in this exam! Or you’ll ________ if you’re caught cheating by the teacher.
A．be in hot water B．have to hold water
C．be in deep water D．keep your head above water
65．The expression using water in Paragraph_______ has almost the same meaning as “Things done cannot be undone.”
A．3 B．4 C．5 D．6
66．We can see from this passage that many of the expressions using water have _______meanings.
A．funny B．unpleasant C．close D．moral
67．The best title for this passage should be_________.
A．The History of Water B．Cold Water or Hot Water?
C．Water and Its Culture D．Expressions and Their Stories
D
Patients and doctors alike have long believed in the healing (治療) power of humor. It is claimed that humor not only affects patients’ moods, but can actually help them recover faster.
Several studies seem to support this. Patients in better spirits are known to have higher immune cell counts. Some have even claimed to have healed themselves of serious illnesses by reading comics and watching comedies.
Despite all this, many researchers are not convinced. They point out the fact that many sufferings have been known to disappear naturally, with or without a daily dose of laughter. They also say that while optimism in general does seem to be related to better health, it is hard to tell which comes first.
Humor in times of stress, however, clearly makes us feel better. On one level, it takes our minds off our troubles and relaxes us. On another, it releases powerful endorphins, a chemical produced by your body that reduces pain.
There are cases where the appreciation of a good joke is indeed directly related to a person’s health. It can show, for example, whether a person has suffered damage to one particular area of the brain: the right frontal lobe (額葉).
Scientists confirmed this by having people read jokes and asking them to choose the funniest endings from a list. Subjects with normal brains usually chose endings that were based on a relatively complex synthesis (綜合) of ideas. Subjects with specifically located brain damage, however, responded only to slapstick (鬧劇) endings, which did not depend on a particular context. When pressed, the brain-damaged subjects saw the logic in the correct endings. They simply did not find them funny.
Of course, humor is largely an individual matter. Next time your friend does not get one of your jokes, there is no need to accuse him of being a lamebrain. However, you might suggest that he lighten up―for the health of it.
68．We can infer from the passage that ________.
A．a(chǎn)ll researchers have agreed on the healing power of humor
B．people seldom accuse their friends of not understanding jokes
C．the author holds a positive attitude to the healing power of humor
D．reading comics will surely become a popular way of treating diseases
69．Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．Many researchers are not convinced of the healing power of humor.
B．Patients in bad moods are known to have higher immune cell counts.
C．Optimism in general does seem to be related to better health.
D．People should try their best to cheer up for their good health.
70．Scientists had some people read jokes and asked them to choose the funniest endings from a list to confirm that ________.
A．the brain-damaged people are different from those with normal brains
B．a(chǎn) person with a normal brain usually responds to slapstick endings
C．a(chǎn) person suffering certain brain damage doesn’t appreciate a good joke
D．humor takes our minds off our troubles by releasing powerful endorphins

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
___71___ Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷爾蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etC．___72___
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
___73___ They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “___74___ Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”
