My mother died when I was 24. It was a very difficult time in my life — everything seemed to fall apart. I lost my job, and then my utilities were turned off. I had to take cold showers for six months. A neighbor who knew about my situation came to my house and made me an offer. I took care of her children as a job, and I no longer went hungry. I was surprised that someone would trust me — a young woman — with her children. And it was with the very confidence that before long I began taking care of other people’s children, too. I have since moved 300 miles from If you are grateful for what you already have, the world will work together to give you more to be grateful for. Otherwise, the world will give you more to complain about. Moreover, the true master learns to be grateful, in advance, for the things that are desired, because, being grateful in advance for some attainment or accomplishment does two very important things: one…it tricks your subconscious（潜意识） into believing that the goal is certain and two…it convinces other people, with whom you must interact to achieve your desires, that you know what you are about, that you are a winner, not a whiner (哀诉者). 56. The underlined “utilities” refers to such things as ______ in the passage. A. gas and electricity supplies B. water and gas supplies 57. The writer was grateful mainly for ______. C. having got the job D. others’ trust 58. The writer’s personal story in the second paragraph tells us that ______. 59. The best title for the passage would be ________.

Are you one of those who always fear whenever a dog is approaching? If you are, you have got phobia ( a very strong feeling of being afraid of something ). Of all human fears, phobias may be the most uncontrollable. They are most often caused by a particular situation or object. In general, phobias can mainly be divided into three varieties. To begin with，agoraphobia is a fear of staying in strange surroundings, for example, an unfamiliar place, or an open area. Social phobia refers to the anxiety people show when they have to stay or perform on social events, for instance, speaking in front of the class. Lastly, there are a wide range of specific phobias. People suffering from this kind of phobia are terrified of specific objects or creatures, such as spiders, perhaps to your surprise, clowns. Besides, there are about six hundred and fifty phobias having been listed by psychologists (心理学家) as yet.
Faced with their phobias, many people choose to do nothing but just escape the situations or objects they fear. Psychologists, however, warn that if not treated properly, this kind of anxiety will get worse, so that it may disturb the sleep pattern, cause physical symptoms, and finally affect their daily activities. As for treatment, clinical research has discovered that medicine for anxiety is not successful in curing phobias. However, the anxiety disorders can be efficiently treated through cognitive behavioral therapy ( 认知行为疗法 ), through which patients are led to inspect the connections between their own fear and the situation or object, and then actively choose the acceptable treatments. Also, other treatments proved effective in reducing phobias are Meditation (quiet thought that can help people relax), listening to calming music, and so on.
67. According to the passage, what causes phobias?
A. Animal attacks. B. Staying in class.
C. Talking with psychologists. D. A certain object or situation.
68. What do those with agoraphobia feel terrified and anxious about?
A．Staying on a square. B．Touching insects, like spiders.
C．Being harmed by virus. D．Giving a speech in presence of many people.
69. Which do psychologists NOT use for effective treatment of phobias?
A. To take medicine for anxiety. B. To listen to comforting light music.
C. To lose oneself in a peaceful environment.
D. To understand the very source of one’s own anxiety.
70. Which of the following statements about phobias is correct?
A. Actors call help people to cure their phobias.
B. Phobias can be divided into six hundred and fifty types.
C. Those suffering from phobias may not sleep well or work normally.
D. Cognitive behavioral therapy demands little participation from patients.

阅读下面的短文，请根据短文后的要求答题（请注重问题后的字数要求）。
The NBA has a new rule this season .It’s called “zero tolerance.” NBA referees（裁判）are not letting players complain too long or too loudly about a ref’s call. A player who does can be given a technical foul（犯规. Two technical fouls and the player is out of the game.
The players don’t like the new rule and want the NBA to change it. They think it’s only natural to get upset during a close, hard-fought game if a call goes against you.
But I like the “zero-tolerance” rule and wish other sports would follow the NBA’s example. Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable if players stopped arguing the calls and just played the game?
The biggest reason I like the new rule is that it sets a good example for younger athletes. When kids（and coaches and parents）see professionals such as Rasheed Wallace of the Detroit Pistons yelling at the refs and arguing every call ,they think it’s okay to do the same. They think it’s part of the game.
But yelling at refs and arguing calls should never be part of any kids’ games. Kids should be taught to forget about the ref’s calls and concentrate on improving their skills and playing their best.
Secondly, all athletes need to learn that you control only one thing in a game, and that’s your own performance .You can’t control what the other players or coaches do . And you certainly can’t control the calls the referees make.
Finally, everyone, from NBA all-stars to 8-year-olds, should remember that being a basketball referee is a tough job. The ref has to make dozens of split-second（即时的）calls. No hesitation. No second chances. Not even the best referee gets every call right.
Maybe if the players, coaches and fans who scream at the referees had to wear a whistle and call a few games, .
81. What is the best title of this passage?(within 10 words)
82. Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one?
Children should ignore the referees’ calls and pay more attention to their skills and do their best.
83. Please fill in the blank in the last paragraph with a proper sentence.(within 15 words)
84. Several reasons are mentioned why the author likes the rule. Which do you agree most? Why (within 30 words)
_________

One possible version:
Dear editor,
I’m writing to tell you about a food poisoning incident. Several days ago, my neighbor family ate a bag of fake food from the market. After the meal, they had stomachaches and brought up what they had eaten as their faces turned pale. Fortunately, another neighbor passed by only to find the accident and immediately called the ambulance, which carried them quickly to hospital. After several hours’ treatment they finally escaped from death.
From this all of us have realized the importance of food safety. As some illegal business men are only interested in making profits in the race to become rich quickly, they seldom care about the necessary safety measures and hygiene or care what happens to consumers. They must be charged by law. Meanwhile I do hope the whole society shall begin taking actions to protect people’s life safety.
Yours
