　　Americans think that travel is good for you.Some even think it can help with one of the country’s worst problems­crime(犯罪)．Crime worries a lot of people.Every year，the number of crimes is up and up.And many criminals are young.They often come from sad homes，with only one parent or no parents at all.

　　There are many young criminals in prison.But prison doesn’t change them.Six or seven in ten will go back to crime when they come out of prison.

　　One man，Bob Burton，thought of a new idea.In the old days，young men had to live a difficult life on the road.They learned to be strong and brave，and to help their friends in time of danger.This helped them to grow into men.So Bob started “Vision Quest”．He takes young criminals on a long，long journey with horses and wagons(马车)，3,000 miles through seven states.They are on the road for more than a year.

　　The young people on Vision Quest all have had problems.Most of them have already spent time in prison.This is their last chance.

　　It’s hard work on the road.The day starts before the sun comes up.The boys and girls have to feed the horses.Some of them have never loved anyone before.But they can’t love their horses enough.They also begin to love their partners.That love can help them to live a new life.

　　Not all the young people on Vision Quest will leave crime behind them.Three or four in ten will one day be in prison again.Bob Burton is right.Travel can be good for you.Even today，Americans still say，“Go west，young man.”

　　1．In the last paragraph，the underlined phrase “leave crime behind them” means “

　　”．

　　A．no longer do a crime

　　B．leave people who do a crime

　　C．do all the crimes

　　D．leave criminals behind

　　2．Why is Bob Burton right?

　　A．Because he can help with crime.

　　B．Because three or four is better than six or seven.

　　C．Because the young criminals have a hard life on the road.

　　D．Because he can stop crime in the country.

　　3．From the passage we may infer that

　　.

　　A．getting up before the sun rises can help people out of crime

　　B．love can help young people to start a new life

　　C．traveling can help all criminals out of prison

　　D．being strong and brave can do with crime

　　4．On “Vision Quest”

　　.

　　A．young people have bad problems

　　B．young people grow tall very fast

　　C．young people often help their friends in time of danger

　　D．young people can do anything freely

　　1．A　[词义猜测题。从最后一段中的“Three or four in ten will one day be in prison again.”可知，并不是所有参加Vision Quest的人都不再犯罪了。]

　　2．B　[推理判断题。原来出狱的人再次犯罪回到监狱的几率是十分之六、七，现在则成了十分之三、四，因此他是正确的。]

　　3．B　[推理判断题。从倒数第二段最后一句“That love can help them to live a new life.”可推知B项正确。]

　　4．C　[细节理解题。从倒数第二段最后两句“They also begin to love their partners.That love can help them to live a new life.”可知选C。]

　　（2016高考阅读理解）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。

　　A less well known benefit of having great EQ is that it can help in effective stress management，or in other words，to bring our stress to a comfortable level.But how can Emotional Intelligence help in stress management?

　　Our emotions are good indicators of our stress level.If we are aware of our own emotions，we can identify the signs of unusually high stress earlier.Then we can take steps to relax or to control our emotions，and avoid further stress.For example，getting angry ten times in one single day at our team members，peers，or other people we interact with is most likely not a sign that they have suddenly become more annoying or incapable.It is more likely to be a sign that our level of stress has increased，and that our tolerance for anything that doesn’t go our way has decreased.

　　Self­management，the second dimension of Emotional Intelligence，also helps decrease our stress.Self­management is our ability to prevent the waves of our negative emotions from rising too high.An example of self­management is keeping our sadness or anger from reaching an intensity when we cannot function and work normally，and when it can even be painful.

　　Such high emotional waves further escalate stress in two ways.First，stress is expanded by the feeling that we are “losing control”．And then it can be accompanied by guilt...and even more stress.Secondly，decisions we make during these emotional waves are usually not well­thought and usually bring us more trouble and more stress.For example，decisions we make during an period of anger can be expected to result in extra work to repair “additional damages”．

　　Social awareness，the third dimension of Emotional Intelligence decreases stress by reducing interpersonal conflicts in the workplace.One serious conflict with one of our team members or peers can eat up a large amount of our energy and result in a lot of stress.

　　How exactly does better social awareness lead to less conflicts？Social awareness is the ability to recognize emotions in other people，and to handle them resourcefully.In situations when conflicts can easily arise，this skill is particularly useful.By identifying the emotions in our counterpart and then acknowledging these emotions，we can prevent a disagreement from turning into an open personal conflict.

　　As a conclusion，if you are feeling that you are too stressed，I encourage you to look at how you could develop your Emotional Intelligence further.

　　1．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “escalates” in Paragraph 4?

　　A．Decreases.

　　B．Raises.

　　C．Relieves.

　　D．Substitutes.

　　2．In how many ways does great EQ help in stress management?

　　A．5.

　　B．4.

　　C．3.

　　D．2.

　　3．What do we know from the passage?

　　A．Getting angry 10 times a day at other people indicates that they’re annoying.

　　B．Decisions made during emotional waves can be thoughtless and regrettable.

　　C．Social awareness can remove interpersonal conflicts in the workplace.

　　D．When we are feeling too stressed，we had better look at our EQ level.

　　4．The structure of the passage is

　　.(① to ⑦ represent Paragraph 1 to 7)

　　1．B　[词义猜测题。根据后文内容“...stress is expanded by...And then it can be accompanied by guilt...and even more stress.Secondly，...bring us more trouble and more stress.”可知，high emotion waves能在两个方面导致more stress，也就是raise stress“增加压力”，故选B项。decrease减少；relieve缓解；substitute替换。]

　　2．C　[推理判断题。根据文章内容以及结构可知，文章介绍高情商在三个方面对缓解压力有帮助，emotion(第二段内容)，self­management(第三、四段内容)和social awareness(第五、六段内容)，故选C项。]

　　3．B　[细节理解题。根据文章第四段第四句“...decisions we make during these emotional waves are usually not well­thought and usually bring us more trouble and more stress.”可知，我们在情绪波动的时候做的决定往往没有经过周密考虑也会给我们带来更多的麻烦和压力。故选B项，在情绪波动的时候所做的决定往往是欠考虑并且会后悔的。]

　　4．A　[篇章结构题。本文是一篇“总—分—总”结构的文章。文章第一段总领全文。第二段是关于emotion的；第三、四段涉及self­management；第五、六段涉及social awareness；最后一段是总结。故选A项。]

　　（2016高考阅读理解）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。

　　Almost everyone has experienced anxiety at some time in their lives，and to do so is not only probably quite sensible，too.In some sense，the feeling of anxiety is like a signal to us that we need to take action.If we are walking alone down a dark street and start to feel anxious，we might think，“This is getting frightening.I think I’ll nip into the pub and call a cab.” so we will do something to get ourselves somewhere safe.If we have an exam coming up，we are likely to start feeling anxious.We might think，“I can’t pretend it’s not happening.I’ve got to revise or I’ll totally mess up.” Once again，anxiety can guide us to behave in a way that is in our best interests.

　　However，anxiety can also imprison us.It stops us from doing what we would like to do and living our life fully.Feeling anxious is undoubtedly a fact of life，so our goal is not to live an anxiety­free life but to live our life with acceptable levels of anxiety in a full way.

　　Anxiety can be abnormal when it starts to take over our thinking processes and our lives，and makes it difficult for us to function.It is likely that people who experience extreme and upsetting levels of continual anxiety are suffering from a disorder called Generalised Anxiety Disorder(GAD)．

　　The most important feature of GAD is that people experience quite severe anxiety and worry about a wide range of things over long periods of time.Other symptoms include finding it difficult to control the worry，getting easily tired，difficulty concentrating and sleep disturbance.

　　People with GAD tend to worry about the same kinds of things as people without GAD—only they fall into worrying more easily and tend to spend more time worrying.Research suggests that our worry tends to cluster around particular themes including our health，finances，relationships，family，work and finally，worry about worrying.

　　Some worries are realistic(“real event” worries)．For example，if I worry about the size of my credit card bill，then this problem exists and my worry arises from a real problem.Some worries are about things that may never happen(“hypothetical event” worries)．Sometimes，real event worries spiral(螺旋形上升) into hypothetical event worries.For example，“My neighbors are noisy” could spiral into “I’ll never be able to sell the house.I’ll be stuck here for ever.”

　　Even though you may always have tended to worry，you can still learn to understand it and get on the top of it.Extreme worry is not a part of your personality，and it’s not something that you should accept as unavoidable.

　　1．According to the passage，a person with GAD may

　　.

　　A．try to do something to get himself somewhere safe

　　B．focus his mind fully on what he is determined to do

　　C．be anxious about one special thing for a long time

　　D．be continuously worrying about some particular things

　　2．It can be inferred from the passage that

　　.

　　A．GAD can hardly be cured once one suffers from it

　　B．anxiety actually has both positive and negative sides

　　C．most people have experienced different levels of GAD

　　D．hypothetical event worries are mostly from real event worries

　　3．The difference between people with GAD and normal people lies in

　　.

　　A．whether they feel worried

　　B．what they worry about

　　C．how they experience anxiety

　　D．why they get into anxiety

　　4．Which would be the proper title for the passage?

　　A．Anxiety：Learn to Understand It

　　B．GAD：Learn to Keep Away from It

　　C．How to Get Rid of Your Anxiety

　　D．How to Distinguish Anxiety from GAD

　　1．D　[细节理解题。根据文章第四段第一句“The most important feature of GAD is that people experience quite severe anxiety and worry about a wide range of things over long periods of time.”可知，GAD的一个重要特征就是人们长期对很多事情表现出焦虑和忧虑，D项符合原文。]

　　2．B　[推理判断题。根据文章第一段第二句“In some sense，the feeling of anxiety is like a signal to us that we need to take action.”和最后一句“Once again，anxiety can guide us to behave in a way that is in our best interests.”可知，焦虑可以指导我们采取对我们最有利的行为，这是它积极的(positive)方面。根据第二段第一句“However，anxiety can also imprison us.”可知，焦虑同时也束缚着我们，说明它具有消极的(negative)方面。故选B项。]

　　3．C　[细节理解题。根据文章第一段第一句“Almost everyone has experienced anxiety at some time in their lives...”和第四段第一句“The most important feature of GAD is that people experience quite severe anxiety and worry about a wide range of things over long periods of time.”可知，正常的人和患有广泛性焦虑症的人的不同在于焦虑度的不同，故选C项。]

　　4．A　[标题归纳题。通读全文，文章一开始指出了焦虑是每个人都会体验的感受，接着细述了焦虑对人们生活的积极和消极的影响，最后一段指出“Even though you may always have tended to worry，you can still learn to understand it and get on the top of it.”可知，作者希望读者能了解焦虑，从而能够成功地化解焦虑。因此，全文主题是介绍焦虑、学会了解焦虑，故选A项。]
