三、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
A
For centuries, the body's blood has been linked closely with the emotions．People who show no human emotions or feelings, are said to be cold-blooded killer．For example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer．He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someone's life as nothing． Cold can affect other parts of the body．The expression \cold or your feet．The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do．For example, you agree to be president of an organization．But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the organizations will be your responsibility．You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation． The expression \someone the cold shoulder\probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to face．You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you．Or, to someone who has lied about you to others． A cold fish is not a fish．It is a person．But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth．A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone．Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted．Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy．Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of their lovers． \．A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise——he was left out in the cold．And it is not a pleasant place to be．
36．There are ______ expressions related to cold that are mentioned in the passage． A．3 B．4 C．6 D．7
37．When you refuse to speak to a man and treat him in a distant way, you may express by
\． A．I give him the cold shoulder B．I think he is a cold-blooded man C．I think he is a cold fish D．I'm likely to get cold feet 38．If Sue shows absolutely no reaction to those awful pictures of starving children in Africa, you will
say _______． A．she is a cold-blooded killer B．she gets cold feet C．she is a cold fish D．she is out in the cold 39． The topic of this passage is about ______． A．the relationship between cold and our body B．some expressions about friendship C．some expressions connected with cold D．how cold weather comes into being
B
From a very early age, some children exhibit better self-control than others．Now, a new study that began with about 1,000 children in New Zealand has tracked how a child's low self-control can predict poor health, money troubles and even a criminal record in their adult years． Researchers have been studying this group of children for decades now．They observed the

level of self-control the youngsters displayed．Parents, teachers, even the kids themselves, scored the youngsters on measures like \．\ The study led by Moffitt of Duke University and colleagues followed 1, 000 children from birth to age 32 in Dunedin, New Zealand． \the most health problems in their 30s,\Moffitt said, \they had the worst financial situation．They were more likely to have a criminal record and to be raising a child as a single parent on a very low income．\weren't just a feature of a small group of misbehaving kids． Moffitt said it's still unclear why some children have better self-control than others, though she said other researchers have found that it's mostly a learned- behavior, with relatively little genetic influence．But good self-control can be set to run in families because children with good self-control are more likely to grow up to be healthy and prosperous parents． But the good news, Moffitt said, is that self-control can be taught by parents, and through school curricula that have been shown to be effective．
40．From the first two paragraphs we learn that______． A．the research has been carried out for five years B．self-control in kids tends to determine their future C．self-control was assessed by children's intelligence D．children's self-control is almost the same at early age 41．Children with low self-control are more likely to ______． A．become wealthy in later life B．get good school performance C．have better financial planning D．adopt negative behaviors 42．What can be inferred from the passage? A．Self-control cannot be taught in schools． B．The study is restricted within few participants． C．Good parenting can improve self-control and life success． D．It's never too late to deal with self-control problems． 43．Which of the following might be the best title of the passage? A．Child's self-control predicts future health, success B．Kids are encouraged to take risks at an early age C．Children's development cannot be changed by teachers D．How to teach the kids a bit of self-control in schools

Exploit your parking space
An unused parking space or garage can make money. If you live near a city center or an airport, you could make anything up to ￡200 or ￡300 a week. Put an advertisement（广告）for free on Letpark or Atmyhousepark. Rent（出租）a room
Spare room? Not only will a lodger（房客）earn you an income, but also, thanks to the government-backed “rent a room” program, you won’t have to pay any tax on the first ￡4500 you make per year. Try advertising your room on Roomspare or Roommateeasy. Make money during special events
Won’t want a full-time lodger? Then rent on a short-term basis. If you live in the capital,

renting a room out during the Olympics or other big events could bring in money, Grashpadder can advertise your space. Live on set
Renting your home out as a “film set” could earn you hundreds of pounds a day, depending on the film production company and how long your home is needed. A quick search on the Internet will bring up dozens of online companies that allow you to register your home for free—but you will be charged if your home gets picked. Use your roof
You need the right kind of roof, but some energy companies pay the cost of fixing solar equipment(around￡14,000), and let you use the energy produced for nothing. In return, they get paid for unused energy fed back into the National Grid. However, you have to sign a 25-year agreement with the supplier, which could prevent you from changing the roof.

''Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move,\
David Belle, the founder of parkour （跑酷）． Do you love running? It is a good exercise, yet many people find it boring．But what if making your morning jog a creative one? Like jumping from Walls and over gaps, and ground rolls? Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royaler Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way．It is just because of Bond's wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide． Yes, that's parkour, an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible, getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body．Parkour is considered an extreme sport．As its participants dash around a city, they may jump over fences, run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop． Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds, but its participants see parkour much more than that． Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy （理念） behind parkour．This is the same as life．You must determine your destination, go straight, jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life, to reach the destination successfully．A parkour lover said, \way to do everything．\ Another philosophy we've learnt from parkour is freedom．It can be done by anyone, at any time, anywhere in the world．It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself that you earn energy and
