Doodles are signs which you draw unconsciously (无意中) when you are holding a pen in your hand and
just happen to start writing aimlessly. However, there is more to these"diagrams (图形) of the unconscious"
than what you see. Free from the restriction (限制, 约束) of the conscious mind, they can be useful in finding
your character and personality, and many of your secret hopes, ambitions, fears, and dreams.
Faces are a sign of sociability or lack of it. If you doodle happy, smiling faces, you have a friendly,
out-going disposition which people respond to, and you enjoy an active social life. If your faces are bad, this
may mean hating others. Faces looking to the right are sign of outgoing personality and confident expectation
about the future while to the left, a sign of shyness and self-control.
Bare or narrow trees show a lack of warmth. You"ve probably been disappointed in life or could even be
suffering from a minor illness that needs attention.
If you build a house in layer(层), each layer separate, you could be too proud, too eager to make your loved
ones follow your order and jump to attention. A little untidiness in a house makes the people feel comfortable,
safe and happy.
If your doodle looks like a web, you are making a cry for help in solving a problem. You feel trapped, and
are seeking a way out; perhaps you even want to travel, try out new ideas and realize your ambitions. But you
lack confidence to step out into the World on your own because of the web you"ve created around you. |

In most towns today, you can see teenagers standing over electronic machines with flashing lights,
shooting at spaceships from other planets and dropping bombs on strange monsters (恶魔).The machines
have names like Space Warrior, Dark Invader and so on. It used to be believed that damage was done only
to those strange visitors from outer space, but now it seems that they are striking back.
Many teenagers like electronic games so much that they can"t stop playing.They spend hours tightly
holding the joystick controls and constantly pressing buttons marked"fire". They develop pains on their
fingers because of the constant pressure. They play and play so that the pains have no chance to cure
properly. The rapid wrist movement required to guide the spaceship across the screen causes another
problem: The muscles of the wrist and arm become so inflamed and swollen (红肿) that they press against
the bones. This condition is what doctors now call "Space Warrior"s Wrist". Other strange aches and pains
also are likely to affect the elbows and shoulders.
Another even more alarming problem is shown by the case of a 17-year-old girl which was recently in
the British Medical Journal. She had been playing various kinds of electronic games for more than two hours
a day. Her father repaired games and machines and she could use the cassettes and systems in his workshop
as often as she liked. One day, after playing a game called Dark Invader, she lost consciousness (晕倒) and
fell to the floor.
Doctors who examined her found she was suffering from an unusual illness caused by lights flashing at
a particular frequency. |

Geena David knew she wanted to be a movie star when she was very young. She was not sure what gave
her the idea, but she wanted to look like a movie star."I have a lot of pictures from my childhood of me
wearing sunglasses," she says."I used to wear them to watch TV."
Early movie actors started wearing sunglasses not because they looked good, but because their eyes hurt.
The lights used on movie sets were extremely bright and could cause a painful problem known as "Klieg eyes".
It was named after the Klieg brothers who invented the lights. Actors wore sunglasses to give their eyes a rest.
But when movie stars began wearing their sunglasses in public, they quickly became a must.
Eventually actors started wearing sunglasses in their movies as well as on the street. Audrey Hephburn
wore ultra-cool Ray-Ban sunglasses in the 1961 movie, Breakfast at Tiffany"s. As a result, Ray-Ban sunglasses
started to appear more and more in the movies. In 1979, Ray-Ban"Wayfarers" were worn by Jake and Elwood
in The Blue Brothers. Tom Cruise wore Ray-Ban"Aviator" sunglasses in the 1986 hit, Top Gun. Then in 1997,
Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones made Ray-Ban"Predator" sunglasses famous in Men in Black.
Of course sunglasses aren"t just a fashion statement. The main reason to wear sunglasses is to protect our
eyes against UV radiation. UV radiation can damage our eyes, so people now choose their sunglasses carefully.
But you don"t have to give up style for safety. The choice of frames and lenses available these days is huge. So
you can protect your eyes and still be the coolest person on the beach. |

D. state | | 阅读理解。 | As we grow up, we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs. These are influenced by society,
our family, the education we receive and so on. Once this value system is set up, it"s not easy to change later in
life. Financial experts say that every one also has their own belief of how to manage their money. According to
our different values, experts put us in three categories. They are: the ant, the cricket and the snail.
The ant-works first
Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don"t care
about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when
they get old and retire. The ant loves to save but they could make more out of their money if they were willing
to invest in some funds and stocks (股票) with low risk.
The cricket (蟋蟀)-fun first
The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn"t think too much about the future. They even borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These people have
little savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance (保
险).
The snail (蜗牛)- lives under pressure
The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long-term loans (贷款) from
the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses. They are happy to take big loans even though they are
not sure they can afford it. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully. | | 1. One"s values may__________. | A. be his ways of managing money
B. be his beliefs about society

cards. Moreover, he spends money in a very luxurious way. So, _____. | A. Mr. Smith belongs to the ant type
