We all have storms through our lives. But we have no right to make everyone else suffer with our own 31 .

Work Your Mind

Here‘s something to think about the next time you ask your teacher for help: struggling with schoolwork on your own can help you learn. According to a recent study, the more you struggle while you are learning new information, the better you can remember it later.

This theory might surprise you. When teachers are presenting new information, they often give students lots of help. But a new study shows this may not be the best way to support learning. ―Don't be too quick to get help when learning something new,‖ education expert Manu Kapur told TFK. ―Try to work on it yourself even if it means trying different ways.‖

Kapur came up with the idea that struggling can lead to better learning. Then he tested it out on students in Singapore. He separated students into two groups. In the first group, students were asked to solve math problems with the teacher‘s help. In the second group, students were asked to solve the same problems by helping one another, instead of getting help from the teacher.

With the teacher‘s help, students in the first group were able to find the correct answers. Students in the second group did not solve the problems correctly. But they did come up with a lot of good ideas. The students were then tested on what they had learned. The group without any help from a teacher scored much higher than the group who had help. Kapur said working to find the answers helped students understand the process, not just the solution.

Kapur‘s advice for kids is to put a lot of effort into learning something new rather than going to your teacher for help. ―Simply doing a little work or nothing at all won‘t work,‖ says Kapur. ―The struggle needs to be a genuine attempt to figure out or solve a problem in as many ways as possible.‖

51. When you have doubt on schoolwork, you‘d better ____________.

A. ask your teacher for help

B. make it clear by yourself

C. ask your classmates to help you

D. ask your parents for help

52. What‘s Manu Kapur educational idea on learning new knowledge?

A. Give students much help as soon as possible.

B. Let students learn it on themselves in one way.

C. Let students learn it by themselves in the same way.

D. Let students learn it for themselves in different ways.

53. How did Kapur check his idea on better learning?

A. By asking questions.

B. By solving art problems.

C. By group comparisons.

D. By solving science problems.

54. What is most important in learning knowledge?

A. Getting the teacher‘s help.

B. Getting the student‘s help.

C. Grasping the learning course.

D. Receiving the final solution.

Baby girls make their way directly for dolls as soon as they can crawl, while boys will head for cars, a study has shown. The findings, the first to show differences in very young babies, suggest there is a biological basis to their preferences.

Psychologists Dr Brenda Todd from City University London carried out an experiment involving 90 babies aged 9 months to 36 months. The babies were allowed to choose from seven toys. Some were typically boys‘ toys ---- a car, a digger, a ball and a blue teddy. The rest were girls‘ toys: a pink teddy, a doll and a cooking set. They were placed a meter away from the to ys；and could pick whichever toy they liked 。Their choice and the amount of time they spent playing with each toy were recorded.

Of the youngest children (9 to 14 months), girls spent significantly longer playing with the doll than boys, and boys spent much more time with the car and ball than the girls did. Among the two and three-year-olds, girls spent 50 percent of the time playing with the doll while only two boys briefly touched it. The boys spent almost 90 percent of their time playing with cars, which the girls barely touched. There was no link between the parents‘ view on which toys were more appropriate for boys or girls, and the children‘s choice.

Dr Brenda Todd said, ―Children of this age are already exposed to much socialization. Boys may be given ?toys that go‘ while girls get toys they can care for, which may help shape their preference. But these findings agree with the former idea that children show natural interests in particular kinds of toys. There could be a biological basis for their choic es. Males through evolution have been adapted to prefer: moving objects, probably through hunting instincts（本能）, while girls prefer warmer colors such as pink, the colour of a newborn baby.‖

55. Baby boys and girls have different toy preferences probably because ________.

A. baby boys are much more active

B. baby girls like bright colors more

C. their parents treat them differently

D. there is a natural difference between them

56. Both baby boys and baby girls like to play with ________ according to the study.

A. a ball

B. a teddy

C. a car

D. a doll

57. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?

A. Nine-month-old baby boys don‘t play with dolls at all.

B. Two-year-old baby girls sometimes play with cars and balls.

C. The older the babies are, the more obvious their preference is.

D. Parents should tea ch their babies to share each other‘s toys.

58. What conclusion did Dr. Brenda Todd draw from the results of the study?

A. Adults purposely influence the ir babies‘ preference.

B. Babies‘ preference isn‘t affected by social surroundi ngs.

C. Baby boys preferring to moving toys will be good at hunting.

D. Baby girls preferring warmer colors will be warm-hearted.

One day over lunch, I explained to a group of boys that my father was a prince.

―My grandfather, he‘s a chief. It‘s sort of like the king of the tribe, you know… like the Indians. So that makes my father a prince. He‘ll take over when my grandfather dies.‖―What about after that?‖ one of my friends asked, ―I mean, will you go back and be a prince?‖

―Well… if I want to, I could. It‘s sort of complicated, see, because the tribe is full of warriors. Like Obama…that means ?Burning Spear.‘ The men in our tribe all want to be chief, so my father has to settle these before I can come.‖

As the words flew out of my mouth, I felt the boys changed attitudes towards me, more curious and familiar when we bumped into each other in the class, a part of myself even began to believe the story. But another part of me knew that what I was telling them was a lie, something I‘d constructed from the information I‘d picked up from my mother. However, after a week of staying with my father in the flesh, I had decided that I preferred his more distant image in my mind, an image I could change or ignore when convenient. If my father hadn‘t exactly disappointed me, he remained something unknown, something grand and threatening.

My mother had felt my anxiety as the days of his arrival drawing near—I suppose her the same, from her efforts to prepare the apartment we‘d rented for him, she would try to assure me that the reunion would go smoothly. She told that she had stayed a correspondence(通信)with him throughout the time we had been separated, she explained, and he knew all about me. Like her, my father had remarried, and I now had five brothers and one sister living in Kenya. He had been in a bad car accident, and this trip was part of his recovery after a long stay in the hospital.

―You two will become great friends,‖ she decided.

59. Other boys changed attitudes towards me because ______.

A. they were more curious and familiar

B. I told a lie to them which made them respect me

C. my father was a prince and I would be a prince, too

D. I was friendly to them and made friends with them finally

60. It can be inferred from the text that ______.

A. my parents had been divorced

B. father had an accident on the way to meet us

C. my father and I would surely become good friends

D. I would go back to hometown and become a prince

61. The underlined phrase ―bumped into‖ in Paragraph 5 means ―______‖.

A. came across

B. crashed into

C. stared at

D. talked with

62. Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. This reunion was specially planned by father.

B. Father was not what I had always thought in my brain.

C. It was a long time since father and mother kept in touch.

D. I was unwilling to see my father because he abandoned us.

When Lady Gaga releases a new single, it quickly goes around the world.

Now scientists have discovered the same thing happens with the songs of another unusual and interesting creature – the humpback whale.

The mammals become interested in new tunes just like people do, and the most popular

original whale songs spread globally like hit singles.

The discovery has astonished experts who say it is the first time such a large, ―population-wide cultural exchange‖ has been seen in the animal kingdom.

Male humpback whales are well-known for the loud, long and complex songs they make during the mating season. Scientists are unsure why the males sing. Some believe it is a way of advertising themselves to females, others that it allows migrating(迁徙)whales to stay in contact.

Each song lasts for 10 to 20 minutes and the males can sing continuously for 24 hours. At any period of time, all the males in a population sing the same song. But a study, published in the journal Current Biology, shows that this song changes over time and spreads around the oceans. Dr Ellen Garland, of Queensland University, said: ―Our findings show cultural exchange on a vast scale. Songs move like cultural ripples from one population to another, causing all males to change their song to a new version.‖

Researchers recorded songs from six neighboring populations of whales in the Paci fic over a decade. They found that new versions of the songs appear over time and always spread from west to east.

It takes around two years for songs that appear in the waters off Australia to be heard in French Polynesia.

Dr Garland believes that a small number of whales may migrate to other populations carrying the new songs with them, or that they are heard by passing whales.

Dr Garland said, ―We think this male search for song novelty(新颖)is in the hope of being that little bit different and perhaps more attractive to the opposite sex.‖

63. The author mentions Lady Gaga to ______.

A. prove the popularity of her hit singles

B. show whales‘ songs also spread globally

C. emphasize humpbacks are as famous as her

D. provi de readers wi th a new way to l earn her songs

64. The underlined word ―release‖ in Paragraph 1 means ―______‖.

A. announce

B. sell

C. publish

D. record

65. The discovery is very astonishing to experts, because it reveals ______.

A. the existence of cultural change

B. cultural exchange on a vast scale

C. the reason why male humpbacks sing

D. the novelty of the songs of humpbacks

66. According to the passage, Dr Garland wants to tell us ______.

A. male whales adopt new songs to make themselves distinct

B. all female humpbacks also change their song during the mating season

C. whales have their own tunes that spread around the world for a decade

D. whales can sing continuously for 24 hours when migrating from west to east

Can we watch 3D (three dimensional) TV programs without the glasses? With the development of the technology, we can make it soon.

Lately, there has been much progress of this video system by some scientists at the University of Arizona. It is said that the researchers at the University of Arizona have created the world‘s first 3D video display that uses an onboard memory and can also be updated. So far the 3D displays produced in the labs can be erased and rewritten in only a few minutes. For a 3D television to be created however, the display would need to be overwritten several times in a second, something to be achieved within the next decade.

This ability to erase and rewrite a 3D projected(投射)image is considered as a huge breakthrough in this field. Indeed it gives lots of hope that even the remaining bits can be achieved. The main challenge now is to come up with methods of continuously erasing and rewriting the image. According to most researchers, an eventual 3D television will have a flat screen

construction, which is similar to the modern day displays with flat panels. However, for the case of the 3D television, the display would most likely need to be placed on the floor, right in the middle of the viewing room as is presently done with the coffee table. The image would then be projected above the display screen of the ―coffee table‖, where it would be viewable in 360 degrees.

While it is quite easy to demonstrate the great potential of the 3D TV in a laboratory setting, it is entirely a different thing to produce in mass. Furthermore, in order to watch a 3D TV, there would be required 3D TV programs. This is no small task as creating even a very cheap 30-minute comedy in the 3D format would need a vast amount of expensive equipment as well as technical knowledge.

It would therefore call for very serious duty by the television networks to adapt to the 3D. But because the technology is there, sooner or later, be put to good use. Even though 3D TVs may not be a reality within the next decade or so, it will eventually get there.

67. From Paragraph 2 we learn that ______.

A. the 3D TVs have begun to be produced in factories in large quantities

B. the 3D TVs are still being researched in spite of some pleasing progress

C. the 3D displays in the labs can‘t be erased or rewritten in several minutes

D. the University of Arizona has updated the world‘s first 3D video memory

68. What‘s the main challenge at present in the field of research 3D TVs?

A. Promote the development of flat screen construction.

B. How to produce as many 3D TV programs as possible.

C. The remaining bits can hardly be achieved though there is hope.

D. How to solve the problem of erasing and rewriting the image non-stop.

69. What‘s the main idea of Paragraph 4?

A. To project the 3D TV programs in a laboratory is easy.

B. People prefer a cheap 30-minute comedy to the 3D ones.

C. Nobody will show interests in watching 3D TV programs.

D. To produce 3D TVs in mass still faces a lot of other difficulties.

70. Why does the author write this passage?

A. To tell us how far the 3D TV is from us.

B. To tell people where to buy the 3D TVs.

C. To prove the basic need for the 3D TV programs.

D. To encourage people to research the 3D TV displays.

第二节作文(满分30分)

One possible version:

Helping others is considered a treasured virtue of human kind, which definitely brings us tremendous happiness. Whoever lives in the world depends on others‘ help, which is necessary and important.

I‘ve received a lot of help from other people, which enables me to overcome the difficulties and troubles in my way. I once failed an important exam, as a result of which I almost lost heart. It was the encouragement and comfort of my classmates that cheered me up. Not until then did I realize what help really meant. From then on, I began to do what I can to help others in need, which both benefited me as well as others.

III. Reading Comprehension Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. B Kettlebells do not hurt people. People do. A kettlebell will get your respect – the easy way or the hard way. Here is the easy way. 1. Get a medical clearance. Get clearance, especially from an orthopedist and a cardiologist. The latter is no joking matter, since kettlebell training can be extremely intense. 2. Always be aware of your surroundings. Find a training area with a non-slippery surface on which you are not afraid to drop a kettlebell. The area must be clear of objects you might trip over – including other kettlebells – or that you might hit with a kettlebell. There should be no people or animals in a radius where you could injure them. 3. Train barefoot or wear shoes with a flat, thin sole and room for the toes to spread. Training barefoot is superior for health and performance reasons. If you must wear shoes, wear Converse Chuck Taylors, Vibram Five Fingers, or similar shoes that have thin soles and do not pinch the toes together. You have sensory receptors on the bottoms of your feet that make you stronger and improve balance and coordination. Wearing traditional shoes diminishes the ability of these receptors to work properly, and therefore inhibits performance and can increase the risk of injury. Go native. 4. Never contest for space with a kettlebell. Do not try to save a rep that has gone wrong. Guide the kettlebell to fall harmlessly, and move out of the way if necessary. And remember, quick feet are happy feet. 5. Practice all safety measures at all times. Respect every kettlebell, even the lightest one. Always use perfect form picking up and setting down a kettlebell. The set is not over until the bell is safely parked.
