根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從下框的A—F選項中選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項。選項中有一項為多余項(E涂AB,F涂AC)
A Avoid asking your child too many questions
B Tell your child stories about your growing up
C Don’t judge or criticize your child
D Listen to your kids with respect
E Provide pressure-free conversation opportunities
F Ask children gently what they think
   If your child has gone from a continuous chatterbox to making conversations that consist mostly of yes and no, it’s time to consider these tips on how to talk to kids, so you’ll know what’s going on in your child’s world.
小題1:  
The quickest way to get kids to shut up and, as a result, shut you out of their lives is to continuously press them about things. A more effective way is to sit back and patiently wait for them to open up in a low-stress family and then be prepared to listen.
小題2:  
Parents can sometimes make kids at a young age decide it is best not to talk about something when they are criticized. If you really want to know what’s on your child’s mind, then avoid passing judgment and focus instead on why something seems important to your child.
小題3:
If you want to raise a creative and independent thinker, stop telling your child what he ought to feel or think. You can gently encourage additional conversations by simply asking why he feels the way he does or what he would do in a certain situation.
小題4:  
You may think you’re just asking questions out of curiosity when communicating with your child, but an endless stream of questions about what they did, whether everyone got along, if they went to the bathroom, ect., are enough to make anyone shut up! Practice patience and let your kids open up on their terms.
小題5:
Kids can relate to you and other adults when you tell your stories happening when you were their age. Talking to kids by telling them about things like something embarrassing that happened or the first crush(迷戀) you had helps them to connect with you and understand that you might actually know what they are going through!

小題1:E
小題2:C
小題3:F
小題4:A
小題5:B

The possibility that pleasant smells might reduce pain has recently been suggested by new research. In a scientific study, doctors asked 20 men and 20 women to keep their hands in very hot water for as long as possible while breathing in different smells.
As people believe that strong smells can affect the senses, volunteers were asked not to eat or drink for eight hours before the experiment began. During the experiment, volunteers were asked to take in pleasant smells such as vanilla (香草), and unpleasant smells such as durians (榴蓮). The volunteers kept their hands in the water until it became too hot for them. When they could not bear the pain any more, they took their hands out of the water.
Scientists are interested in whether the senses or smell is related to pain and whether men and women have the same senses. Now, the study has proved that for women, pleasant smells reduce pain. For men, there is no change.
Dr Finkelstein has been studying smells since 1999. He says that scientists already have data from 40 volunteers. He adds that this year, scientists will test another 60 volunteers and will be in a better position to explain the results.
One explanation is that women’s sense of smell developed long ago, and is linked to recognizing the smell of babies. Scientists used to believe that mothers recognized their children by sight only. Now, they have started to believe that the sense of smell also helps, but why pleasant smells do not reduce pain in men is a question still to be answered by scientists.
小題1:Before the experiment, volunteers ______.
A.a(chǎn)re gathered and take a training
B.cannot eat or drink for several hours
C.must wash their hands carefully
D.will be interviewed by Dr Finkelstein
小題2:If both men and women are asked to keep their hands in hot water while taking in some pleasant smells, ______.
A.women may stand the pain of the hot water longer
B.men may keep their hands in the hot water longer
C.they will probably take their hands out at the same time
D.we are not quite sure who will take their hands out earlier
小題3:From the passage we learn that _________.
A.the reason why women are sensitive to smells is clear
B.the experiment for the sense of smell has come to an end
C.unpleasant smells affect men’s senses more than women’s
D.scientists have not totally explained the result of the study
小題4:Now scientists believe that _______.
A.mothers recognize their children only by sight
B.men’s sense of smell developed a long time ago
C.strong smells have a great influence on people’s senses
D.smells are helpful for mothers to spot their children
小題5:The writer wrote the passage in order to ________.
A.supply some entertainment to us
B.show women’s sharper senses than men’s
C.inform the readers of some knowledge
D.call for volunteers for the experiment

In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child's acquisition (學會) of each new skill -- the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.
Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters. Others are severe over time of coming home at night or punctuality(準時)for meals. In general, the controls represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child's own happiness.
As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency(前后一致) is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality (道德). Also, parents should realize that "example is better than precept". If they are not sincere and do not practice what they preach (說教), their children may grow confused when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.
A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents' principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.
小題1:Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills, _________________.
A.should be avoided
B.is universal among parents
C.sets up dangerous states of worry in the child
D.will make the child lose interest in learning new things
小題2:In the process of children’s learning new skills, parents _________________.
A.should encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they read
B.should expect a lot of the children
C.should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their own
D.should create as many learning opportunities as possible
小題3:The second paragraph mainly tells us that _________________.
A.parents should be strict with their children
B.parental controls reflect only the values of the community
C.parental restrictions vary, and are not always for the benefit of the children alone
D.it’s parents’ and society’s duty to control the children
小題4:The word“precept” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_________________”.
A.opinion B.punishmentC.behaviorD.instruction
小題5:In terms of moral matters, parents should _____________________.
A.follow the rules themselves
B.be aware of the huge difference between adults and children
C.forbid things which have no foundation in morality
D.a(chǎn)lways ensure the security of their children

In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In New York City, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City. They declare that if more people rode bicycles to work, there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown part of the city and so less dirty air from car engines.
For several years this group has been trying to get the city government to help bicycle riders. For example. They want the city to draw special lanes for bicycles only on some of the main streets, because when bicycle riders must use the same lanes as cars, there are accidents. Bike for a Better City feels that if there were special lanes, more people would use bikes.
But no bicycle lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea-they say it will slow the traffic. Some store owners on the main streets don’t like the idea-they say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business.
The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central Park-the largest place of open ground in New York-is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bicycles only. But Bike for a Better City says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown.
小題1:In New York, a group of bike riders ________.
A.a(chǎn)re keeping practicing for health
B.have no cars of their own
C.a(chǎn)re complaining there are not enough buses
D.a(chǎn)re trying to settle the problem of air pollution
小題2:The advantage of the special lanes is that ________.
A.they will make cars and buses run slowly
B.they will make it easier for bike riders to go to parks
C.they will make the city more beautiful
D.the lanes will prevent accidents
小題3:The government has not decided whether special lanes should be drawn _______.
A.so that everyone is disappointed
B.because there are different opinions
C.because most people travel by train
D.because Bike for a Better City is not strong enough
小題4:Cars are not permitted to enter Central Park on weekends _________.
A.so that Bike for a Better City is pleased
B.so that everyone is happy
C.a(chǎn)nd bicycle lanes are drawn
D.but Bike for a Better City is still not satisfied

How to Stay Motivated in High School
Do you find it difficult, almost impossible to stay motivated about high school? There are so many demands on your time, along with the expectation of parents and teachers. You really want to look at all the “big picture”. Your time in high school is likely to be just a small part of your whole life.    小題1:  
Set realistic goals and rewards. It can be as simple as doing your work and then taking a break to do something you like.    小題2:   It isn’t as though you have to do all of your work at one time. In other words, when you reach a good break point, give yourself some kind of reward such as doing something you enjoy and afterwards get back to work.
  小題3:  Consider your own parents, teacher, neighbor, or relative—anyone you respect and trust that can be in your corner to root for you and cheer you on. You want someone who has some life experience to counsel you. If you can find more than one source of such wisdom, it is all the better. Don’t ignore this suggestion. It can really save you a lot of heartbreak and suffering later on.
Have supportive friends. There are people who are going nowhere fast.    小題4:   Instead, stay around other motivated students who enjoy school, study and work hard because they are so positive. That positive influence will help motivate you.
Work with yourself not against. We all have energy levels.    小題5:  If your levels are low, determine what raises your energy levels to get you going. Then get as much done as you can. Also, don’t wait until later to get started doing things like your homework. One student explained that he would start work at the end of the class. Then when he got home, he was finishing the work rather than just starting the work.
A.Then get back to work.
B.Don’t hang out with them.
C.Seek the wisdom of an elder.
D.Try to go with the flow of your levels.
E. But it can be the most meaningful years.
F. Study hard, have fun and enjoy each year.
G. Find classmates with whom you can share your concerns.

Here is some news of the future.
March 20, 2035
There was a lot of news around the life extension drugs that hit the market a decade ago. They didn't promise that you would like forever, but they gave you a chance to extend your life an extra five to ten years. Even though the life expectancy rate at birth has increased greatly, the life expectancy for seniors hasn't improved that much. Basically, you have a greater chance to become a senior, but you will not have a much longer lifespan, and this is where the anti-aging drugs intend to kick in. So, do the anti-aging drugs work? Well,it is too early to tell. But the sales so far are very good.
April 19, 2035
Of the total US population of 378 million, people over 65 years of age now make up 20% for the first time. The senior ratio of only 4.1% by year 1900, and 12.4% 30 years ago.
The number of people above 65 compared to those of what is considered working ages, between 15 and 64, is currently 33.7%. This is up from 18.5% since year 2005, which means that for every retired person there are now two workers, compared to four workers 30 years ago. The number of people above the age of 80 has grown to 23.8 million, making them 6.3% of the total population compared to 3.6% in 2005.
April 12, 2040
Although introduced in the market only five years ago, 10% of all hydrogen fuel now sold in the US is of the environmentally friendly Re-Hydro label, produced through eletrolysis(電解) based on a source of 100% renewable energy. Several producers have turned to producing Re-Hydro, mainly because of lower tax, which also keeps the price of Re-Hydro on the same level as regular hydrogen. Most analysts believe that Re-Hydro will be the dominating fuel in the future.
小題1:According to News 1 we know that the life extension drugs ____.
A.were first sold in the year 2025.
B.a(chǎn)re made to make people live forever.

B
What happens inside the skull of a soccer player when repeatedly heads a soccer ball? That question motivated a challenging new study of the brains of experienced players that has caused discussion and debate among soccer players, and some anxiety among those of us with soccer-playing children.
For the study, researchers at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York selected 34 adults, men and women. All of the volunteers had played soccer since childhood and now competed year-round in adult soccer leagues. Each filled out a detailed questionnaire developed especially for this study to determine how many times they had headed a soccer ball in the previous year, as well as whether they had experienced any known concussions (腦震蕩) in the past.
Then the players completed computerized tests of their memory and other learning skills and had their brains scanned, using a complicated new M.R.I. technique which can find structural changes in the brain that can’t be seen during most scans.
According to the data they presented at Radiological Society of North America meeting last month, the researchers found that the players who had headed the ball more than about 1,100 times in the previous 12 months showed significant loss of white matter in parts of their brains involved with memory, attention and the processing of visual information, compared with players who had headed the ball fewer times.
This pattern of white matter loss is “similar to those seen in traumatic (外傷的) brain injury”, like that after a serious concussion, the researchers reported, even though only one of these players was reported to have ever experienced a concussion.
The players who had headed the ball about 1,100 times or more in the past year were also generally worse at recalling lists of words read to them, forgetting or fumbling the words far more often than players who had headed the ball less.
小題1:The passage is most probably a ________.
A.news report B.research report
C.story for soccer players D.text for doctors
小題2: In which way can researchers find the structural changes in the brain?
A.Computerized test B.Questionnaire
C.Scanning D.M.R.I. technique
小題3: From the passage we can conclude that frequent heading may have ________.
A.significant effect on brain B.little effect on one’s brain
C.nothing to do with the brain injury D.one’s memory improved
小題4:What is likely to be the cause of memory loss?
A.Playing soccer frequently B.Tests of their memory
C.White matter loss D.Information processing
小題5:The underlined word “fumbling” is closest in meaning to ________?
A.remembering B.misunderstandingC.recalling D.missing

It’s a sure sign that summer is over and winter is on the way — leaves that were once deep green turn red, yellow and bright orange. It happens every autumn. But did you ever wonder why?
The leaves start changing color when the nights start getting longer and the temperature starts getting cooler. Some scientists think that as the number of daylight hours shrinks, the leaves stop making chlorophyll which makes plants green. The reason is that the process of making chlorophyll requires sunlight. But according to horticulture (園藝) educator Susan Rose from Colorado State University, it turns out leaves don’t really change color at all. “The fall colors are actually there all along,” she said. “But they are covered by the green chlorophyll. As the chlorophyll stops being produced, the other colors can shine through.”
The kind of color that the leaves are going to change to is determined by the plant’s genetic (基因的) background. In some places, the leaves start changing color in September — before autumn even officially begins. In other places, they don’t change until late October or even November. Some scientists say the leaves have been changing color later than usual in recent years. And they think global warming has something to do with that.
In one study, researchers found that the growing season in the Northern Hemisphere was nearly a week longer, on average, in 2008 than it was in 1982. And a professor from Harvard University found that the leaves, west of Boston, Massachusetts, are changing color about three days later than they used to. However, other scientists disagree with the global warming theory. Susan Rose said the leaves in her part of Colorado are changing “right on schedule.” But the leaves in other parts of that state are running a little late. “The lateness in the mountains may have something to do with the really warm late summer and early fall,” she said. “But I’m afraid that’s just a guess.”
小題1:According to Susan Rose, _____.
A.the fall colors are always in leaves
B.leaves make chlorophyll all the seasons
C.leaves’ changing color have nothing to with the weather
D.leaves begin changing color because they start making chlorophyll
小題2:The underlined word “shrinks” in Paragraph 2 could best be replaced by _____.
A.reducesB.increasesC.lastsD.a(chǎn)ppears
小題3:Scientists guess leaves change color later than usual probably as a result of _____.
A.genetic background B.dry weather
C.global warmingD.low temperature
小題4:The purpose of the last paragraph is to tell readers _____.
A.why leaves change color at fall
B.leaves change color at different time
C.the effects of the global warming on plants
D.different opinions on the lateness of leaves’ changing color

Do you know that men die earlier than women? The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men’s hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age.
  The largest study of the effects of ageing(變老) on the heart has found that women’s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.
  “We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,” said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK.
  “Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,” said Goldspink. “This is part of the aging process.”
  What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman’s heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one’s.
  “This gender difference might just explain why women live longer than men,” said Goldspink. They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease. “The team has yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart,” said Goldspink.
  The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise. Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age.
小題1: The underlined word “l(fā)ongevity” in the second paragraph probably refers to “________”.
A.healthB.long lifeC.a(chǎn)geingD.effect
小題2: The text mainly talks about ________.
A.men’s heart cellsB.women’s ageing process、
C.the gender differenceD.hearts and long life
小題3:According to the text, the UK scientists have known that ________.
A.women have more cells than men when they are born
B.women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beat
C.the female heart loses few of the cells with age
D.women never lose their pumping power with age
小題4:If you want to live longer, you should ________.
A.enable your heart to beat much faster
B.find out the reason for ageing
C.exercise regularly to keep your heart healthy
D.prevent your cells from being lost
小題5:We can know from the passage that ________.
A.the reason why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart has been found out
B.scientists are on the way to finding out why the male heart loses more of the cells
C.the team has done something to prevent the male from suffering the greater loss
D.women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20
