19．On the first day of his presidency，Donald Trump （特朗普） began making changes to the policies of earlier presidents．
A document released by the new Trump White House said the president would soon withdraw from the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement（12國跨太平洋伙伴貿(mào)易協(xié)定）．The free trade deal was negotiated by the Obama administration．
The While House website said Trump would also work to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement known as NAFTA．
"If our partners refuse a renegotiation that gives American workers a fair deal，then the President will give notice of the United States'intent to withdraw from NAFTA，"a White House statement said．
Neither action was a surprise．During the presidential campaign，Trump said bad trade deals had hurt employment in America．
The NAFTA agreement removed most tariffs（關(guān)稅） on products traded between the US，Canada and Mexico．It was signed by President Bill Clinton in 1993．
The Trump administration also said it is ready to cancel what it called，"harmful and unnecessary policies．"Among them is the Obama administration's plan to reduce pollutants from coal-powered electricity plants．The climate plan was designed to cut gases that cause global warming．
Another is a clean water rule to protect small waterways and wetlands from development by the Environmental Protection Agency．
Trump has said he wants to cancel and replace a third policy，the national health care law，known as"Obamacare．"
The Trump administration has promised other major changes．In education，for example，there are plans to give parents more choices in selecting schools for their children，including private，religious schools．

7．Imagine picking apples on Christmas or going skating on May Day．What about going for a swim on Thanksgiving？Without Leap Day（閏日），which takes place every four years，that could happen．
Our calendar is normally 365 days long．It was created to match the cycles of the seasons．But Roman ruler Julius Caesar noticed a problem：The earth doesn't circle the sun in exactly 365 days．It actually takes 365and one-quarter days．He figured out that the extra part of a day would cause the calendar to grow apart from the seasons over time．Over 100 years，the seasons would shift about 24 days．Spring would start on April 13instead of March 20．
Caesar used math to figure out a way to stop the calendar from shifting．He decided to add an extra day to the month of February every four years．His idea helped keep the seasons and calendar matched up．Even so，it still wasn't perfect-his calendar was adding too many days．
In 1582，Pope Gregory XIII worked on Caesar's idea．His calendar，called the Gregorian calendar，declares that every year that is equally divided by 400is a leap year．Turn-of-the-century years，or years ending in"00"，would not be leap years unless they could be divided equally by 400．These complicated equations（等式）help keep the calendar in balance with the orbit of the earth．Today，we still use the Gregorian calendar．In about 3，000 years，the calendar will be only one day out of step with the seasons，It's still not perfect，but mathematicians decided it was as close as we could get．

28．Why was Julius Caesar's calendar not good enough？A
A．There would be too many days on the calendar．
B．It would be only one day out of step with the seasons．
C．Spring would start twenty-four days later than usual
D．Leap Day would take place every other year．
29．It can be inferred from the text thatD．
A．the earth circles the sun in exactly 365 days
B．Caesar added an extra day to every February
C．Pope's calendar has been used for 3，000 years
D．Gregorian calendar is more scientific than Caesar's
30．Which of the following years is a leap year according to Pope？C
A．The year 2100．
B．The year 2200．
C．The year 2400．
D．The year 2300．
31．In which section of a website can you probably read this text？C

14．Housework is a frequent source of disputes （爭論）between lazy husbands and their hard-working wives，but women have been warned not to expect men to pull their weight any time soon．
A study from Oxford University has found that men are unlikely to be doing an equal share of housework before 2050．Mothers，the researchers warned，will continue to shoulder the burden of childcare and housework for the next four decades，largely because housework such as cleaning and cooking is still regarded as"women's work"．
The gap between the amount of time men and women spend on housework has narrowed slowly over the past 40years．But it will take another four decades before true housework equality  is achieved，the study concluded．The research found that in the Nordic countries，the burden of housework is shared more equally between men and women．In the UK，women spend an average of four hours and forty minutes each day on housework，compared with two hours and twenty-eight minutes for men．This is an improvement from the 1960s，when British women typically spent six hours a day on housework，while men spent just 90minutes every day．
But progress towards housework equality appears to be slowing in some countries．Dr Oriel Sullivan，a research reader from Oxford's Department of Sociology，said，"we've looked at what is affecting the equality in the home，and we have found that certain tasks seem to be given according to whether they are viewed as‘men's work'or‘women's work'．"Dr Sullivan said cultural attitudes taught at school may be responsible for the views of housework．"At school it is much easier for a girl to be a tomboy，but it is much more difficult for a boy to enjoy baking and dancing，"she said．

28．What does the underlined part word probably mean in Paragraph 1？D
A．Lose weight．B．Be lazy．C．Earn money．D．Do equal housework．
29．Why will women continue to do more housework before 2050？D
A．Because men are too busy to help．
B．Because they would like to do so．
C．Because they can do better in housework．
D．Because housework will still be considered as women's work．
30．From Paragraph 3，what do we know in the UK？C
A．Men now spend just 90 minutes a day on housework on average．
B．Women now are too busy with their work to do housework．
C．Women now spend less time on housework than before．
D．Housework is shared equally between men and women．
31．In Dr Sullivan's opinion，what is to blame for the housework inequality？A
A．Cultural attitudes towards housework．
B．Policies made by the government．
C．The time spent on work．
D．The type of housework．

4．"A room without books is like a body without a soul，"observed the Roman philosopher，Cicero．It can also be a sign of financial problems to come．New research has uncovered a strong connection between the earning of adults and whether they grew up surrounded by books as children
Three economists at the University of Padua-Giorgio Brunello，Guglielmo Weber and Christoph Weiss-studied 6000 men born in nine European countries and concluded that children with access to books could expect to earn more money than those who grew up with few or no books．
They studied the period from 1920 to 1956，when school reforms saw the minimum school leaving age raised across Europe．They booked at whether，at the age of 10，a child lived in a house with fewer than 10books，a shelf of books，a bookcase with up to 100 books，two bookcases，or more than two bookcases．
Over the period studied，the research，published in The Economic Journal，found that an additional year of education increased a man's average lifetime earnings by 9%．Men brought up in houses with less than a shelf of books earned only 5% more as a result of the extra year's education，compared with 21% more for those who had access to a lot of books．Ands those who had access to books were more likely to move to the better-earning opportunities in cities than those without books．The men's first job was also much more likely to be a white-collar job
The economists offer a number of theories for the results．"perhaps books matter because they encourage children to read more and reading can have positive effects on school performance，"they said．
The number of books in children's homes can effectively predict their cognitive（認(rèn)知的）test scores．This may indicate a home that encourages cognitive skills，which are important for economic success in life．

25．Why did author mention Cicero's words in the first paragraph？B
A．To make an argument      B．To introduce the topic
C．To express his own views   D．To arouse readers'interest
26．What can we learn about the people studied by the researchers？C
A．They were tracked by researchers since age 10．
B．They all left school because of school reforms
C．They came form several different countries
D．They are now white-collar professionals
27．How does the author show the results of the research？A
A．By listing numbers
B．By providing examples
C．By following the order of time
D．By following the order of importance．
28．What is the main conclusion to the research？D
A．Homes without books are vulnerable（脆弱）to financial problems
B．Families that can afford books raise successful children
C．Boy who love reading books earn more than girls
D．Children who live with books earn more as adults．

11．Until now，little research has been conducted on the association between parents'friendships and the emotional well-being of their adolescent children．A new study from researchers at the University of Missouri suggests that mothers'friendships with other adults can impact their adolescent children's relationships with their own friends，particularly the negative aspects of these relationships such as conflict and opposition．
Gary C．Glick，a doctoral candidate at MU，and Amanda Rose，professor in the Department of Psychological Sciences，studied the development of friendships and other peer（同齡人）relationships during adolescence and their impact on psychological adjustment．They found that adolescents may mimic the negative characteristics of their mothers'relationships in their own peer-to-peer friendships suggesting that mothers can serve as role models for their adolescents during formative years．
"Mothers who display high levels of conflict with friends may signal to their children that such behavior is acceptable，or even standard in friendships，"Glick said．"Additional findings suggest that adolescents take for granted their reactions to their mothers'conflict with adult friends which may lead to anxiety and depression"
Previous research of this type focused on primary-aged children，but MU researchers wanted to expand their study to focus on the formative adolescent years．Youth ranging in age from 10to 17and their mothers were surveyed separately to measure regarded positive and negative friendship qualities in both groups．Results showed that positive friendship qualities were not always imitated by adolescents； however，negative and unfriendly relationship characteristics exhibited by mothers were much more likely to be copied by the youth studied．
"We know that conflict is a normal part of any relationship-whether it a relationship between a parent and a child，or a mother and her friends-and we're not talking physical fights but oral conflicts，"Glick said．"But being exposed to high levels of such conflict generally isn't going to be good for children．Parents should consider whether they are good role models for their children especially where their friends are concerned．When things go wrong，parents should talk with their children about how to act with their friends，but more specifically，how not to act．"

32．The word"mimic"（in Para.2）means"B"．
A．inherit
B．imitate
C．possess
D．discover
33．In comparison with the previous study，the new study expandedA．
A．research subjects
B．research themes
C．research goals
D．research approaches
34．According to Glick，parents should instruct their childrenC．
A．how to avoid any conflict with friends
B．how to establish a sincere friendship
C．how to deal with a troubled friendship
D．how to put an end to a wrong friendship
35．What does die new study reveal？D
A．Aggressive mothers ruin their children's friendship．
B．Conflicts and opposition form children's characters．
C．Parent-child relationship affects children's growth．
D．Teens mirror negative features of mom's friendships．

8．A 33-year-old physicist in California recently quit his job to devote himself to an unpaid job teaching math on the Internet，and his lessons are reaching almost 100，000 people a month．Salman Khan's voice is heard every day on the net-by tens of thousands of students around the world who are hungry for help learning math．He has posted 1，200lessons an YouTube-lessons that appear on an electronic（電子的）blackboard，which range from（涵括）basic addition to advanced mathematics for science and finance．And they are free．
Khan lives in Silicon Valley，with his wife，a doctor，and their new baby．He got the idea for his"Khan Academy"12 years ago，when he taught a young cousin how to convert（轉(zhuǎn)換）kilograms to grams．With Khan's help，the cousin got good at math，and Khan began a new career．
Now，Khan records his lessons himself，but he never goes on camera．"It feels like my voice in their head．You're looking at it and it feels like someone's over your shoulder talking in your ear，as opposed to（與…相反）someone at the blackboard，which is distant from you，"he said．
When Springfield High School in Palo Alto，California invited Khan to speak in person-he immediately connected to the students there．
The idea of short lessons that can be played over and over again attracted high school senior Bridget Meaney．She says she had trouble with math in the seventh grade．"I think the teachers are good，but they can't teach at a speed that's perfect for everyone，"she said．"I like the idea of learning something in class but then going back and pressing pause or rewind and actually getting a deeper understanding of it．"
Originally，Khan kept his lessons short because of YouTube restrictions（限制）．Now，he thinks short is better．"Education researchers now tell me that 10minutes is how long someone can have a high level of attention．And anything beyond that and your brain switches off，"he said．
For Khan，teaching math，science，and finance is just the beginning．He says he's ready to expand（拓展）his YouTube site to include other subjects as well．

54．What gave Khan the idea of teaching math online？B
A．His interest in Internet teaching．
B．His success in helping his cousin learn math．
C．A suggestion made to him at a local high school．
D．His discovery that many students found learning math difficult．
55．Why does Khan never go on camera？A
A．He wants to create a more relaxed learning atmosphere．
B．He wants to keep distance from the viewers．
C．It's restricted by YouTube for education videos．
D．He's to a shy to show his face on camera．
56．From the passage，we know thatC．
A．Khan travels to many schools to promote his lessons
B．Khan gives live math lessons every day for free
C．Khan plans to include more subjects in the future
D．Khan set up the Khan Academy with his wife
57．What does Khan mean by"short is better"in the 6th paragraph？B
A．Short lessons encourage students to return to the website．
B．Keeping the lessons short can ensure better attention．
C．Students enjoy short mathematics lessons more．
D．YouTube suggests short lessons for its site．
