27、d, he was not different form other pet dogs. But two years later, he had begun to speak with simple words and sounds.

28、lots of jobs. He has been a bow-tie wearing lawyer, a tennis player, an Olympic figure skater, a world famous grocery checkout clerk, a pilot and even the first astronaut on the moon.However, Snoopy has always dreamed of being a famous writer. The beginning of his story is always, “It was a dark and

29、 stormy night” Unfortunately for him no one has ever wanted to publish the story.In love, Snoopy is as much of a failure as Charlie Brown is at baseball. He easily falls in love but always has his heart broken. He eats to forget, but it never works.Snoopy is an insightful, feel-good and sometimes sa

30、d dog. If you think a little about words, you might find them full of life lessons. Among his most famous lines are “To live is to dance, to dance is to live.” And “Yesterday I was a dog.

38、erfulDexcitedCEarly this month, on the Egyptian-Israeli border not far from her hometown, a series of bombings killed 35 people and injured more than 160. Despite the attack, life quickly returned to normal. Living under the threat of attack is normal here.Israel teenagers interests are not very dif

39、ferent from others. “Low-cut jeans（低腰牛仔裤）and miniskirts are very in,”said Hinanit, an 18-year-old teenager.“You cannot let the fighting control what you do and dont do.

40、rous now, but I still love Israel.

In this recent military action, Israeli soldiers have killed at least 83 Palestinians, including 24 children.Palestinian children lead a dangerous life under the watchful eyes of Israeli soldiers. Israel presents them as terrorists（恐怖分子）and faceless stone throw

42、ers. Many Palestinian children have been driven away from homes into crowded and hungry refugee camps with their families. “Even if we are surrounded by Israeli soldiers and have no food, we will stand and defend our country,” said Fatima Al-Aidi，a 13-year-old teenager, who lost a friend in Israels

43、recent attack. “I hope to carry a lot of weapons and take my revenge（报复）one day.

46、ells you how smart you are. EQ (Emotional Quotient) tells you how well you use your smartness. Professor Salovery, the psychologist who created the term, EQ, says that it is IQ that gets you hired but it is EQ that gets you promoted. Supported by his research, he suggested that when predicting futur

47、e successes, a persons brainpower, as measured by IQ tests, might actually matter less than a persons character, or EQ. Professor Salovery may be correct. For example, have you ever wondered why some of the best and smartest students in your class end up failing exams? Perhaps it is because of their

48、 EQ. People often make the mistake of thinking that EQ is the opposite of IQ. It is not. Although it is hoped that people have both high EQs and IQs, there is little doubt that those with low EQs have a hard time surviving in life. For a long time, researchers discussed if a persons IQ could be rais

49、ed. The geneticists said no, while the social scientists said yes. Furthermore, the social scientists said that it was possible to improve a persons EQ, particularly in terms of “people skills”, such as understanding and communication. Recently, a professor released the findings of a study on senior

50、 high school students. When some normal students were introduced to some disabled students, they found that afterwards they were more willing to help people in difficulties. At the same time, there was a marked change in the disabled students attitudes. They became more positive about their disabili

51、ties and were more eager to try new things. People with high EQs often have positive attitudes towards life and are open to different ideas, so they tend to be more creative in their thinking. Please remember that having a high IQ is helpful but having a high EQ might even be more helpful.67. The se

What did the professor find from his study of normal students being introduced to som

A high EQ is of great benefit in getting people promoted.70. Which of the following would be the best title of this passage?A. A persons br
