agriculture and forestry(林業(yè))，and most of the rest live in or around towns，small and largehere the traditional picture is changing：every small town may still be very like other small towns，and the typical small town may represent a widely accepted view of the country，but most americans do not live in small towns any morehalf the population now lives in some thirty metropolitan areas(1arge cities with their suburbs、of more than a million people eacha larger proportion than in germany or england，let alone francethe statistics(統(tǒng)計(jì))of urban and rural population should be treated with caution because so many people who live in areas classified as rural travel by car to work in a nearby town each dayas the rush to live out of town continuesrural areas within reach of towns are gradually filled with houses，so that it is hard to say at what moment a piece of country becomes a suburb but more and more the typical american lives in a metropolitan rather than a small town

years，you will experience a lot of changes. the changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly. dont panic！you will deal successfully with them！you are a young adult now!with more

heart.but the truly amazing thing is that i have received double over the course of my life. when my mother passed away, our house was filled with fresh dinners for weeks. a woman from the church of our community stopped by each evening with some food. the gift of food was her small way of trying to ease our pain.later in my life, when i was on bed rest during my pregnancy with twins, women of the church again stepped in to help. they arranged babysitting for my two year old daughter, and brought lovely dinners to our house. even when i was put in the hospital, my husband would bring cooked meals to my hospital room. how we relied on these dinners to feed my tired husband and young daughter.food is all about comfort. it feeds our bodies, but it can also feed our souls. when you hear people talking about their favorite holidays, it usually includes their feelings connected with sharing food. i know that i will have many more opportunities in my lifetime to prepare food for others. it is truly a gift i want to prepare and deliver to someone in need.44. the author has given lots of food to others because_a. she is poor at cooking bshe is a church membercshe is friendly to others

sons winter break from school，and we were heading home from fort lauderdale after a weeklong trip. the flight was overbooked，and delta, the airline，offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day. i had meetings in new york，so i had to get back. but that didnt mean my husband and my son couldnt stay. i took my nine-month-old and took off for home.the next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. yes, i encouragedokay, orderedthem to wait it out at the airport, to “earn” more delta dollars. our total take: $1，600. not bad, huh?now some people may think im a bad mother and not such a great wife either. but as a bigtime bargain hunter, i know the value of a dollar. and these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up. ive made a living looking for the best deals and exposing (揭露) the worst tricks. i have been the consumer reporter of nbcs today show for over a decade. i have written a couple of

extremely difficult to let go of your hate. however, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. people who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research._51_ try the following steps：calm yourself. _52_ you can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.dont wait for an apology. many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. they may have wanted to hurt you or they just dont see things the same way. _53_ keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.take the control away from your offender(冒犯者). rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who caused your pain. instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you._54_ if you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. you may want to write a letter to yourself from your offenders point of view.dont forget to forgive yourself. _55_ but it can rob you of your self-confidence if you dont do it.awhy should you forgive?bhow should you start to forgive?crecognize the benefits of forgiveness.dtry to see things from your offenders angle.efor some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.fto make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.gif you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time.第卷第一節(jié) 短文改錯（共10小題，每小題1.5分，滿分15分）文中共有10處語言錯誤，每句中最多有兩處。錯誤涉及一個單詞的增加、刪除或修改。增加：在缺詞處加一個漏詞符號（），并在其下面寫出該加的詞。刪除：把多余的詞用斜線（）劃掉。修改：在錯的詞下劃一橫線（ ），并在該詞下面寫出修改后的詞。注意：1.每處錯誤及修改均僅限一詞;dear susan,im very
