She worked for the U．S.Bureau of Fisheries，writing radio scripts during the Depression(经济大萧条) to increase her income and writing feature articles on natural history for the Baltimore Sun.She began a 15year career in the federal service as a scientist and editor in 1936 and rose to become EditorinChief of all publications for the U．S.Fish and Wildlife Service.
She wrote books on conservation(保护) and natural resources and edited scientific articles，but in her free time turned her government research into prose(散文)，first as an article Undersea(1937)，and then in a book，Under the SeaWind(1941)．In 1952 she published her prizewinning study of the ocean，The Sea Around Us，which was followed by The Edge of the Sea in 1955.These books made up a biography(传记) of the ocean and made Carson famous as a naturalist and science writer for the public.Carson resigned in 1952 to devote herself to her writing.

Disturbed by the overuse of chemical pesticides(杀虫剂) after World War ，Carson changed her focus in order to warn the public about the long term effects of misusing pesticides.In Silent Spring(1962) she challenged the practices of agricultural scientists and the government，and called for a change in the way humankind viewed the natural world.

Have one of those days or weeks when everything seems to annoy you? Even if you do nothing about it，your bad mood will probably go away after some time.But with a little effort，you can forget it much faster，often within a day or two.
Walk it off
Exercise is the most popular way to remove bad mood. A person who’s in a bad mood has low energy and high tension. Taking a fast tenminute walk，or taking some quick exercise can do wonders towards changing that bad mood.
Tune it out

Give yourself a pep talk
Stop and listen to what’s on your mind.Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts. Write them all down on paper，including the pessimistic(悲观的) messages you’ve been giving yourself and then give optimistic answers.
Avoid things that won’t improve your mood
TV may not help much. You need to increase your energy level and stimulate your mind. And before you reach for that piece of cake and coffee，think about how________are linked.Sugar and caffeine contribute to depressed moods.While carbohydrates，such as potatoes and pasta (意大利面食) produce a calming effect on people who have a desire for them.(2010·济南统考)

得分策略
[经典例题] —Where did you find your wallet?
—It was in the shop ________ I bought the shirt.
A．thatB．where
C．which
D．there
错因分析 有些考生会认为此处是考查强调句型，从而误选A。其实，如果去掉It was和that后，剩下的句子为“I bought the shirt in the shop”，这与所问的情况不相符，因此，根据语境，此处应用where引导一个定语从句，故选B项。
[得分笔记] 做这类题时，考生不能只看结构，还必须从句子的语境来分析。从句子的意思来看，这个句子显然不是完整的强调句型，而应该是省略了没有被强调的部分“that I found my wallet”，而留下的被强调部分“in the shop where I bought the shirt”中含有一个定语从句。完整的句子应该是“It was in the shop where I bought the shirt that I found my wallet.”。.阅读理解16．A [词义猜测题。根据第一段可知，是她的母亲把对自然界和生物世界的爱传递给蕾切尔·卡逊的。可见，生词bequeath意为“传递；赠送”。]

18．C [细节理解题。根据第三段的最后两句可知，蕾切尔·卡逊通过出版书籍，普及了人们的自然知识，因而她也作为自然学家和科普作家为人所知。]
19．D [推理判断题。根据第五段可知，受到二战后杀虫剂的滥用现象的困扰，蕾切尔·卡逊把写作的关注点转向提醒公众关注误用杀虫剂可能产生的长期的副作用。]

得分策略
在阅读理解中遇到推理判断题，如何进行推理和判断？(三)
4．态度、观点及感受类推理判断题
高考阅读理解题中有些题目考查考生对文章作者的思想、人物性格倾向等方面的理解。对于判断情感态度类的题，考生需要分析段落大意、作者的思路，理解段落大意、文章的中心思想，这样才能判断出作者的情感态度。
(1)学会辨别清楚文章的体裁。高考阅读理解题涉及各类文章，以议论文为主，文章的主题句往往会直接或间接地表明作者的态度立场；说明文，因为其体裁的客观性，所以作者往往采取中立态度；记叙文，作者往往不直接提出文章观点，而且作者写作时也常带有某种倾向性，所以考生读这种体裁的文章时要细心捕捉表达或暗示情感态度的词或短语。
(2)学会区分不同的观点，尤其要善于找出作者的观点。考生要注意文中出现的直接引语和间接引语，出现的观点一般是当事人的观点，而不是作者的观点。作者的观点一般用in my view/opinion，personally，I think，I hold等词语引出。
要分清选项中的表示支持或肯定、中立、反对或否定的词语，再以此对照文章内容。下面是一些常见的有关作者态度的词语：
表示支持或肯定的词语：positive积极的，乐观的；supportive支持的；optimistic乐观的；humorous幽默的；serious严肃的；enthusiastic热情的；pleasant愉快的；concerned关切的等等。
表示中立的词语：indifferent不感兴趣的，漠不关心的，中立的；uninterested不感兴趣的；neutral中立的；impersonal冷淡的；subjective主观的；objective客观的等等。
表示反对或否定的词语：disgusted 憎恶的，厌恶的；critical批评的；negative否定的，消极的；suspicious怀疑的；tolerant容忍的，宽容的；worried担忧的；pessimistic悲观的；depressed沮丧的；disappointed失望的；ironic讽刺的；sarcastic挖苦的等等。
(3)此类试题的干扰项常具有以下特点：或是自己的某种看法或观点；或是社会的一种普遍倾向；或是与本文无关或与作者的观点或看法相反等，考生容易误选与自己的看法相吻合的选项。.阅读表达21．How to Beat a Bad Mood/Ways to Get Rid of Bad Moods
