I read about an athlete who made it all the way to the Olympics despite hating his chosen sport. He committed his entire life to 36 one tiny, yet large, sentence—I’m proud of you. At some point we all have someone we want to 37 , whose approval means the world to us.
I have a clear memory of the person I wanted approval from telling me I was intelligent, the kind of memory that stays very clear because you’ve recalled it so many times. I had 38 someone’s opinion about buying a Canadian soda. “We should really support our own economy,” ten-year-old me said. I had no idea what that meant, 39 I was looked at with approval, and my heart was filled with
40 . I loved that feeling—the approval of my hero. It was nothing like the Olympic athlete, but I made some very big 41 based on what might make them 42 . I was hugely affected by wanting their approval.
Months ago this person removed me from his life. It hurt a lot. However, in life there is rarely hurt
43 growth. I recently 44 on myself and my behavior and noticed something—I feel free. After a period of denying and upset, I 45 that this is just how it is. This realization made me see how often I was transforming myself according to the 46 , “what would they think?” I’d been using the desire for approval as an 47 excuse for hiding. My excuse was gone immediately I realized it
48 . It was time to 49 step into myself and stop hiding who I am from others. Are you hiding? I hid in approval-seeking. Maybe you hide behind judgment. We all have our ways, and it can be really scary to let 50 go.
The thing is, 51 , as long as we prevent ourselves being truly seen, we will never be truly understood. Connection with others won’t be wholly authentic, and we will edit ourselves because we
52 potential thoughts in other people’s heads. It’s pretty 53 . Of course, breaking up isn’t 54 when you expect to be freed from wanting someone’s approval. You don’t even have to tell them you no longer care what they think of you. Just 55 and do what makes you happy and go for the things you really want in life. Do your thing, and let them do theirs. 36. A. searching 37. A. love 38. A. shared 39. A. so
40. A. disappointment 41. A. profits 42. A. cozy 43. A. with 44. A. reflected 45. A. assumed 46. A. opinion 47. A. unconscious 48. A. existed 49. A. physically 50. A. them 51. A. therefore 52. A. miss 53. A. appealing
B. seeking B. upset B. assessed B. but B. depression B. statements B. healthy B. without B. dawned B. accepted B. concept B. unforgettable B. rose B. precisely B. it B. instead B. fear B. scarce

Chinese passport opens more doors in 2014
In 2014, many countries adjusted their visa application process for Chinese people. Here we take a look at the countries that have made outbound traveling easier to Chinese passport holders. Up to 10-year US visa for Chinese tourists and businessmen
The United States is serious about welcoming Chinese visitors and the economic opportunities they bring. During last month’s Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation meeting held in Beijing, President Barack Obama announced that China and the United States have reached an agreement on a reciprocal 10-year visa that allows multiple entries for tourists and businessmen.
China has a tremendous outbound travel market, accounting for 20 percent of the growth in overseas visits to the United States since 2008. Chinese travelers consistently rank the US as their top travel destination, but only slightly more than 1.8 percent of total outbound travelers have been to the US, according to the White House. Germany speeds up visa process for Chinese passport
During Premier Li Keqiang’s state visit to Germany in October, the two countries agreed to try to shorten the visa process to 48 hours. Germany will also issue more long-term multiple-entry visas in the future. Canada upgrades single-entry visas to multi-entry
The Canada Tourism Bureau began upgrading more single-entry visas to multi-entry ones earlier this year, hoping to attract more Chinese visitors. “The multi-entry visa will allow eligible visitors to stay in Canada for as long as six months per trip, and visa validity has been extended to a 10-year-maximum,” according to a bureau spokesperson. Thailand waived visa fees for Chinese tourists for three months
Thailand waived visa fees for tourists from the Chinese mainland and Taiwan from August to October of 2014. Japan further extends multiple-entry visas to Chinese tourists
Japan recently announced that it would further relax its policy to issue multiple-entry visas to Chinese tourists. The multiple-entry visa to Chinese tourists was initiated in 2011 to help boost the economy of the areas affected by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami. The visa required tourists to stay at least overnight in Fukushima, Iwate or Miyagi. The tourists will be free to stay anywhere in Japan from their second visit onward.
The new visa policy is considering issuing multiple-entry visa to individuals with strong purchasing power, with no attached condition to visit the three places.
Morocco looks to offer individual visas to Chinese tourists
From March 6 this year, Chinese service passport holders have not needed a visa to enter Morocco, a first step in making entry to the country easier.
The country also looks to attract more tourists from China, and plans granting individual visas to Chinese tourists, said Salaheddine Mezouar, Foreign Affairs Minister of Morocco. Currently, Chinese tourists must come in groups to apply for Moroccan tourism visa.
56. Which of the following countries has improved efficiency of application process?
A. Germany.
B. Japan.
C. Canada.
D. Morocco.
57. We can learn from the passage that ________.
A. 20 percent of outbound travelers from China have visited the US since 2008
B. Canada has adjusted its visa application process by reducing the required documentation C. individuals with strong purchasing power will be free to stay anywhere in Japan for their first visit D. Chinese tourists can enter Morocco without a visa on condition that they go there in groups

58. Why do many countries introduce easier visa policies for Chinese visitors?
A. They want to show respect for China.
B. They intend to maintain good relationship with China. C. They hope this will encourage their local economy.
D. They expect to strengthen cooperation in different fields with China.
B
Arriving late at a friend’s wedding, I wriggled my way through the crowd to congratulate him and his love. Waving at him over a number of heads, I overheard the new bride say: “I’ve got it!” Turning, I saw her, showing the golden ring in the manner of a hunter waving a hunted animal.
This idea of marriage as a victory was alien to me. The first child of a family so depressive that I left home at 16, I had come to regard marriage as a box in which women were kept. Yes, I had been conditioned by the same fairytales and their prejudiced view of a woman’s life—one that ends at her wedding—but I had also seen what can happen after a wedding. Love, I decided, was safe only when experienced at a distance.
In terms of suffering, my experience was not unusual. The latter half of the 20th century forever changed the landscape of marriage. Contraception(避孕), ease of travel, the domestic incorporation of screen-based technologies (television, computers), and practice of nofault divorces were some of the factors that changed people’s expectations of each other and themselves.
In the following unrest, the communities that had helped marriages in times of difficulty broke down. Women who had once formed supportive social networks to help each other with their children were now in offices for most of the day; their children were enrolled in daycare and the aged placed in homes. The sense of liberation was matched only by alienation. Priorities had shifted from the human to the material.
All around me, marriages were swelling and disintegrating, like paper in water.
There was also the awareness that we were part of something greater than ourselves. Legally and socially, marriage provided us with a framework. And yet it is still considered as no more than “ a piece of paper”. But marriage is not about religion or gender; it is a commitment and a social stabilizer .
The fact that marriage survived the 20th century is a testament to faith—in ourselves, in others, and in the relevance of devotion. For in the end, every marriage stands or falls on the capacity for devotion. And it is hard to remain dedicated to an ideal. There are days when I would happily trade my husband for an Alexander McQueen bag. And then there are days I think of him as my witness, my partner, the door to joy. Marriage is never unchanging. 59. What is the cost of the sense of liberation according to the passage? A. The precious time with families. B. The excitement of marriage. C. The achievements in careers. D. The enjoyment of pursuing money.
60. Which of the following is NOT the factor that changed the landscape of marriage?
A. Women had to go out to work.
B. Nofault divorces were widely practiced. C. People could travel around as they liked. D. Many people did not have time to watch TV. 61. What is the author’s opinion of marriage?
A. Marriage is not a promise and can not keep social stability. B. Mutual faith determines whether the marriage succeeds or not. C. Marriage is a box which keeps both men and women from escaping.
D. Marriage is a relationship between men and women which is unaffected by surroundings.
