【題目】Our spiritual intelligence quotient（精神智商）,or SQ, helps us understand ourselves, and live fuller, happier lives.

Though we're all born with SQ, most of us don't even realize that we have it. Fortunately, you don't have to sign up for classes to learn how to improve your SQ. Here are some simple steps that can lead you to this new level of understanding.

Sit Quietly. The process of developing spiritual intelligence begins with solitude（獨(dú)處）and silence. To tune in to your spirit, you have to turn down the volume（強(qiáng)度）in your busy, noisy, complicated life and force yourself to do nothing at all. Start small by creating islands for silence in your day. In the car, instead of listening to the music, use the time to think. At work, shut the door to your office between meetings, take a few breaths and let them out very, very slowly. Enjoy the stillness in your home after the kids are finally in bed.

Step Outside. For many people, nature sets their spirit free. Go outside to watch a beautiful sunset. If you are walking with the dog, take the time to admire flowers in bloom; follow the flight of a bird and watch clouds float overhead.

Ask Questions of Yourself. Ask open-ended questions, such as "What am I feeling? What are my choices? Where am I heading?"

But don't expect an answer to arrive through some supernatural forms of e-mail. “Rarely do I get an immediate answer to my question,” says Reverend Joan Carter, a Presbyterian minister in Sausalito, California. “But later that day I suddenly find myself thinking about a problem in a perspective I never considered before.”

Trust Your Spirit. While most of us rely on gut（本能的）feeling to realize danger, spiritual intelligence pushes us, not away from, but towards some action that will lead to a greater good..

【1】The passage is mainly about______.

A. what your SQ is and in what way it can benefit our life

B. what your SQ is and in what way it can be improved

C. the relationship between your SQ and your life

D. advantages and disadvantages of SQ

【2】The underlined phrase "to tune in to your spirit" in the third paragraph probably means to_________

A. get your spirit relaxed B. keep up your spirit

C. keep seated quietly D. change your spirit

【3】From the passage, we can know that the most important thing to improve your SQ is______

A. a peaceful mind B. deep thought

C. spare time and hobbies D. good spirits

【答案】

【1】B

【2】A

【3】A

【解析】

試題分析: 你熟悉智商IQ，情商EQ，那么你知道精神智商SQ嗎？如何改善SQ，方法有： 1.靜靜地坐；2. 走出去；3. 問自己一些問題；4. 相信自己的精神感受。

【1】B 主旨大意題。文章介紹了精神智商SQ，并且還有“Here are some simple steps that can lead you to this new level of understanding.”這樣的句子表示后面的內(nèi)容是怎樣提升SQ。故選A。

【2】A詞義猜測題。練習(xí)前后文，可以知道，你需要讓自己放松下來，從喧鬧的、繁忙的、復(fù)雜的生活壓力中釋放出來，不要做什么。因此它的意思應(yīng)該是“放松你的精神”。 故選B。

【3】A 推理判斷題。a peaceful mind平靜的想法；deep thought深度的思想；spare time and hobbies 在嗜好上消遣時(shí)間；good spirits好的態(tài)度。文章中介紹的方法都是叫我們平靜心神，遠(yuǎn)離喧囂。從“Though we're all born with SQ, most of us don't even realize that we have it.”可以看出，我們一般都沒認(rèn)識到EQ的存在作用，因此要保持EQ的一個(gè)好的態(tài)度無從說起。故選A。

【題目】A new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exams than those who use laptops(筆記本電腦)．

Students are increasingly using laptops for notetaking because of speed and legibility(清晰度)．But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught.

Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes “mindlessly” by taking down word for word what the professors said.

In the first experiment，students were given either a laptop or pen and paper. They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual notetaking skills. Thirty minutes after the talk，they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts.

The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand. However，the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts. Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts.

The researchers' report said，“While more notes are beneficial，if the notes are taken mindlessly，as is more likely the case on a laptop，the benefit disappears.”

In another experiment aimed at testing longterm memory，students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture. This time，the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exam.

These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding，but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.

【1】 More and more students favour laptops for notetaking because they can ________.

A. write more notes B. digest concepts better

C. get higher scores D. understand lectures better

【2】While taking notes，laptop users tend to be ________.

A. skilful B. mindless

C. thoughtful D. tireless

【3】The author of the passage aims to ________.

A. examine the importance of longterm memory

B．stress the benefit of taking notes by hand

C. explain the process of taking notes

D．promote the use of laptops

【4】The passage is likely to appear in ________.

A. a newspaper advertisement B. a computer textbook

C. a science magazine D. a finance report

【題目】 Sleep is a basic human need, as basic as the need for oxygen. Getting a good night’s sleep is not only directly related to how we feel the next day, but to our long-term health as well. However, many of us suffer from insomnia (失眠). Even more of us report at least one night of restless sleep per week. This is a serious problem.

Well, how can we make sure that we rest well and stay healthy? Here are some suggestions.

If you can’t sleep in the middle of the night, don’t get up. The bright light will affect your body clock and worsen your insomnia. Stay in bed!

Avoid short sleep during the day, except for a brief ten to fifteen-minute sleep between 2:00 and 4:00 P.M.

Limit your time in bed to the average number of hours you’ve actually slept per night last week. Don’t try to make up for lost sleep. It can’t be done.

Get regular exercise each day, but finish at least six hours before bedtime. Exercising in the evening can help keep you awake.

Take a hot bath for thirty minutes within two hours of bedtime. The bath will warm you, relax you, and make you feel sleepy.

Keep our bedroom dark, quiet, and well ventilated (通風(fēng)).

Keep a regular schedule seven days a week. Avoid sleeping late on weekends. Although it may feel good while you’re doing it, sleeping late on weekend can lead to insomnia during the week.

Don’t drink alcohol (酒精). Although, having a drink before bed makes you sleep, alcohol loses its effects after a while. The secondary effects of alcohol can wake you up during the second half of your night’s sleep.

Keep the face of the clock in your bedroom turned away, and don’t find out what time it is when you awaken in the night.

【1】The first paragraph serves as a(n) __________.

A. argument B. introduction

C. comment D. explanation

【2】 Which of the following is NOT advised for a good night’s sleep?

A. Staying in bed after failing to sleep.

B. Don’t exercise six hours before sleeping

C. Don’t drink alcohol before sleeping.

D. Preventing the wind from blowing into your room.

【3】 To sleep well, you need to __________.

A. get up late on weekends

B. sleep during the day sometimes

C. avoid looking at your clock

D. have a bath in the morning

【4】The text mainly about__________ .

A. some keys to a better night’s sleep

B. some advantages of having a good sleep

C. some effects of bad night’s sleep

D. some reasons for insomnia
