12．When I was a freshman，on Christmas break I went home and looked through the bags of clothes Mom intended to give away．I took a baggy red shirt，for I needed something to wear in art class．Mom was surprised．She wore that when she was pregnant with my younger brother．
The red shirt became a part of my college wardrobe．After graduation，I wore the shirt the day I moved into my new apartment and on Saturday morning when I cleaned．When I became pregnant，I wore the red shirt during big-belly days．I missed Mom and the rest of my family．But that shirt helped．I smiled，remembering that Mother had worn it when she was pregnant，15 years earlier．That Christmas，thinking of the warm feelings the shirt had given me，I wrapped it in holiday paper and sent it to Mom．When Mom wrote to thank me for her"real"gift，she said the red shirt was lovely．She never mentioned it again．The next year，when my husband and I moved the kitchen table，I noticed something red taped to its bottom．It was the shirt!And so the pattern was set．
On our next visit home，I secretly placed the shirt under Mom and Dad's mattress．Two years passed before I discovered it under the base of our living-room floor lamp．The red shirt was just what I needed now while refinishing furniture．The walnut stains added character．
Years later，my husband and I divorced．With my three children，I prepared to move back to Illinois，depressed．Suddenly I saw the stained red shirt．I smiled．After unpacking in our new home I visited her，and I hid it in her bottom dresser drawer．Meanwhile，I found a good job at a radio station．A year later I discovered the red shirt hidden in a rag bag in my cleaning closet．The shirt was Mother's final gift．Mother died three months later．
I intended to send the red shirt，faded but in decent shape，with her to her grave．But I'm glad I didn't．my older daughter is in college now，majoring in art．And every art student needs a baggy red shirt to wear to art class．

24．Why did the author take the baggy red shirt for the first time？C
A．Because she was pregnant．
B．Because she intended to give it away．
C．Because she needed it for her class．
D．Because she missed her mom．
25．How did the shirt help the author？B
A．The shirt made her find a good job at a radio station．
B．The shirt relieved homesickness from the author．
C．The shirt was the cheapest gift to give to her Mom for Christmas．
D．The shirt was the only clothes that the author had for art class．
26．What does the underlined phrase"the pattern"refer to in the text？B
A．Moving the kitchen table regularly．
B．Secretly giving and receiving the shirt．
C．Often taping something to the bottom of the table．
D．Visiting the parents regularly．
27．What is the most important reason for the author's valuing the shirt so much？C
A．That it is still in decent shape though faded．
B．That her daughter needs it in art class．
C．That it symbolizes mother's love．
D．That it is from her dead Mom．

7．Research shows that childhood friendships are important indicators of future success and social adjustment．Children's relationships with peers（同齡人）strongly influence their success in school．And children with fewer friends are more at risk of drooping out of school．becoming depressed and other problems．
Making and Keeping Friends Is More than Child's Play
When 6-year-old Rachel returned to school on a recent Monday morning，her eyes immediately scanned the playground for her friend Abbie．"Though they were only separated by a weekend．Te girls ran right into each other's alms and hugged，"recalls Rachel's mother Kathryn Willis of Gilbert．"It was like a scene from a movie．"
Most parents instinctively（本能地） know that having friends is good for their child Experts agree that friendship is not simply child's play，but a powerful predictor of social adjustment throughout life．
A Skill for Life
"Childhood friendships serve as a very important training ground for adulthood，"says Dr．Robbic Adler-Tapia．Psychologist with the Center for Children's Health & Life Development at the East Valley Family Resource Center．
Researcher William Hartup states，"Peer relations contribute significantly to both social and cognitive（認(rèn)知的） development．"Hartup concludes that the single best childhood predictor of adult social adaptation is not school grades or classroom behavior．But rather．How well a child gets along with other children．
The work of Arzona State University professor of Developmental Psychology Gary Ladd proves that just as being able to make and keep friends is beneficial to kids while the lack of friends is detrimental．
Good Friendships Don't Just Happen
Experts agree that it is essential for children to establish high-quality friendships．But．Researchers warn．These friendships don't necessarily just happen．Often．A good friendship begins with involved parents．
Psychologist Dr Lynne Kenney Markan believes kids should be taught social skills in much the same way they are taught math and reading．
Bad Company
Many parents worry about the quality as well as the quantity of their child's friendships．"When she was in its grade．Her supposed best friend began calling her names and threatening to hurt her．"Says Mindy Miller．"My daughter wasn't allowed to talk to or even look at other girls in her class．It really crushed her spirit．I told my daughter she didn't need a‘friend'like that．"

24．The example of Rachel and Abbie is used to indicate thatA．
A．childhood friendship is of great significance to their growth
B．a(chǎn) positive friendship helps children solve emotional and physical problems
C．it is a proven fact that peer friendship is the most rewarding experience throughout life
D．Rachel missed her friend Abbie very much because of their separation of one weekend
25．The underlined word"detrimental"could be replaced byD．
A．a(chǎn)ggressive B．disappointing C．ridiculous D．harmful
26．We can learn from the passage that high-quality friendship most probably results fromD．
A．social skills and good study habits
B．school grades and classroom behaviors
C．a(chǎn)cademic success and social adaptation
D．positive parental involvement and social skills
27．From the last paragraph we can conclude that Dr．Robbie Adler-Tapia agrees thatB．
A．parents should regard making friends as something that just happens
B．it's wise for parents to support and encourage healthy peer relationships
C．parents only need to help their children to cope with difficult social situations
D．parents are supposed to encourage their children to make as many friends as they can．

11．Scientists study the natural world by using"scientific method"．When a scientist observes some phenomenon in nature，he develops an idea，called a theory or hypothesis （假設(shè)），about what is happening．Then he does an experiment to test his theory．If the results are as expected，then the experiment proves the hypothesis which makes it more likely that the theory is correct．If the experiment fails and the results are not as expected，then the scientist must come up with a new theory that he can test．
   In ancient times great thinkers came up with complicated theories to explain nature，but they did not always prove them by experiment．For example，the great Greek thinker Aristotle，had a theory that heavy objects would fall faster than light objects．People believed this until the scientist Galileo performed an experiment and found it was wrong．
    Here's an experiment that you can use to prove or disprove a common-sense theory：
    Step 1：Get an empty bottle with a small neck．A diameter （直徑） of 1/2 inch should be ideal．
    Step 2：Cut a sheet of paper to a square 5 inches on each si de．
    Step 3：Crumple （壓皺） the paper into a tight wad （塊狀物）．
    Step 4：Lay the bottle on its side and place the paper so it lies loosely in the neck of the bottle．
    Construct a theory about what will happen if you put your mouth about a half inch from the neck of the bottle and blow hard towards it．A common-sense theory might be that the wad would be blown into the bottle by the force of the breath．Now do your experiment to see what really happens．
    If your theory was that the wad would be blown by the force of the air into the bottle，the experiment gave you unexpected results．In most cases the wad is blown out of the neck of the bottle in the opposite direction．A new theory might be that the air being blown into the bottle creates a whirlwind （旋風(fēng)） of air currents （氣流） in the closed space which push the wad out．
29．The writer mentions Aristotle's theory to showD．
A．he was a greater thinker in ancient times
B．he was less successful than Galileo
C．objects of different weights fall at the same speed
D．experiments are necessary to support theories
30．According to the passage，what is not required in the four-step experiment？A
A．A pair of scissors．
B．A piece of paper．
C．A bottle．
D．A strong breath．
31．What's the best title for the passage？D
A．Come to Nature with Scientists          
B．Make up a New Theory
C．Experiment with Breath in a Bottle      
D．Watch Out for Common Sense．
