It has long been thought that first-born children are more successful than their younger brothers and sisters and often have qualities of being more organised and responsible as well as being eager to be in charge.

But a new study has shown that the elder child's achievements can help improve their younger siblings(兄弟姐妹) exam results by helping them to raise their game. For the first time ever, researchers from the University of Essex examined how the success of first born children in school affected their younger brothers and sisters by studying primary school test results.

And the data showed that having an older brother or sister improved a child’s learning with the equal effect of spending an extra 670 on the younger sibling's schooling. One of the study’s authors Birgitta Rabe explained, the older sibling’s achievement may have a direct effect on the younger sibling’s school grades if the older sibling teaches the younger sibling or helps with homework; the younger sibling imitates(模仿) the older sibling, for example in their work style, or tries to be different, for example to avoid competition; the older sibling passes on important information about educational choices or school and teachers to the younger sibling.

The effect is even more noticeable in less well-off families showing poorer children benefit more from a successful older sibling. “We find that the effect is larger for siblings in families relying on free school meals, living in poverty and speaking a language other than English at home. This means that children who live in poverty benefit more from a successful older sibling than children who live in well-off families.”

1.The study is mainly based on the children’s ________.

A. exam results B. work style

C. family background D. educational choices

2.According to the study, ________ tend to benefit more from a successful older sibling.

A. the children who live in rich families

B. the children who live in poor families

C. the children whose parents are successful

D. the children whose mother language is English

3.What can we conclude from the study?

A. Younger siblings are more successful than first borns.

B. First-born children are as successful as their younger siblings.

C. First-born children are more successful than their younger siblings.

D. The success of first borns has positive effects on their younger siblings.

4.The passage is likely to appear in ________.

A. a newspaper advertisement

B. a high school textbook

C. a science magazine

D. a news report

What should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.

Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.

Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.

1.We can infer from the first paragraph that ________.

A. learning better at school shows power in your job

B. the better you are at school subjects, the more helpful they are in your career.

C. learning each subject well is an ability in many jobs.

D. we should think about how to find our career

2. From the passage we learn that if a student’s school performance is not good, he will _____.

A. have no hope in his future work

B. be hopeful to find a suitable job

C. regret not having worked harder at school

D. have an opportunity of a new beginning in his future work

3.All the subjects may have direct value for job hunting except _________.

A. mathematics B. English

C. history D. technical drawing

4.The underlined phrase “be all thumbs” (in Paragraph 3) probably means “_________”.

A. heavy- handed B. the best

C. important D. skilled

5.The passage mainly discusses ___________.

A. The relationship between school performance and career

B. how to get a job

C. How to show strengths in your work

D. working experience and knowledge at school

Too many people put off things that could bring them joy just because they haven’t thought about them, don’t have them on their schedules or are too stubborn to leave from their regular daily things.

One day I thought about all those women on the Titanic who refused sweet foods at dinner that fateful(命中注定的)night to cut out fatty foods. From then on, I’ve tried to be a little more changeable.

I cannot count the times I called my sister and said, “How about going to lunch in half an hour?” She would stammer (結(jié)巴地說),“I can’t , I have clothes to wash. My hair is dirty. I wish I had known yesterday. I had a late breakfast. It looks like rain.” She died a few years ago. We never did have lunch together.

We live on promises we make to ourselves when all the conditions are perfect. We’ll go back and visit the grandparents when we get our baby, Stevie, toilet-trained. We’ll enjoy when we replace the living room carpet. We’ll go on a second honeymoon when we get two more kids out of college.

Life has a way accelerating as we get older. The days get shorter, and the list of promises to ourselves gets longer. One morning, we wake up, and all we have to show for our lives is a long list of “I’m going to”, “I plan on” and “Someday, when things settle down a bit”.

I love ice cream. But my lips had not touched ice cream in 10 years. The other day I stopped the car and bought an ice cream. If my car had hit an iceberg on the way home, I would have died happy.

Now, go have a nice day. Do something you want to. If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could make, who would you say? And why are you waiting?

1.The author mentioned(提到)the women on the Titanic to ________.

A. prove that cutting out fatty foods is difficult

B. tell people to enjoy themselves sometimes

C. encourage people to stick to regular daily things

D. tell us the importance of refusing unhealthy foods like sweet foods

2. What’s the author’s feeling in Paragraph3?

A. Angry. B. Happy. C. Humorous. D. Regretful.

3.The underlined word “accelerating” in Paragraph 5 probably means “________”.

A. moving more quickly

B. going slower

C. becoming more difficult

D. getting more disappointing

4. In the author’s opinion, which of the following is the most likely to bring people true happiness?

A. Getting an ice cream every day.

B. Knowing what one wants completely.

C. Visiting loved ones as long as one has time.

D. Putting off the things that could bring us joy.
