Jason, our son, was born with cerebral palsy （脑瘫）.My wife Margaret and 1 often comforted him as he faced many challenges in his early years.
It was heartbreaking to see him regularly chosen last for baseball* but he was a happy child and well liked by his peers throughout elementary school. His most difficult time came when he began high school. One afternoon, Jason returned home in tears. He threw his bag on the floor and shouted：I’m never going to school again!" He was covered with food that other kids had thrown at him on the school bus on the way home. Jason later told us what had happened.
A few days earlier, Jason had signed up for the school running team. That day, a few older students made 1\m of his performance on the track and made him the target of their one-sided food fight. I called the principal about the humiliation on the bus, and it never happened again. Jason stayed on the team, even though the harassment（骚扰）continued.
One day in October, we had snow and freezing rain. As the other kids exercised in the gym, they noticed one lone runner - Jason -jogging around the snow-covered track.
A few weeks later, Jason had something to tell us. "Mom, D ad, sit down,” he said ! was ready for the worst. He told us that each month, students chose an “athlete of the month”. The coach would list the top athletes, and students voted for the winner. Jason’s name had never been listed. But that day, one of the nominees said："Sir, I would like to nominate Jason for athlete of the month." The coach looked surprised. "He works harder than any of us, Sir，" the student continued. "We will have to have someone second the nomination," the coach replied.
A tear forme d in Jason’s eye as he told us what happened next. "Mom... Dad... everyone in the class put their hands up." His mother and I, also in tears, looked on as he proudly displayed certificate.

Educators across the US are calling for major changes to the admission process in higher education. The National Center for Educational Statistics reported that US colleges and universities received more than 9 million applications between 2013 and The schools admitted morethan 5 million students in that time.
But a new report says that the problem is not about the number of students that are being admitted, but rather how students are selected. The Harvard School of Graduate Education, along with gQ 0^“ schools and organizations, released the report in January 2016，called “Turning the Tide—Making Caring Common". The report argues that the process schools use
to choose students causes major problems.
David Hawkins, the Executive Director for Educational Policy，says that most colleges and universities require many things from students when they apply. Schools usually ask for an essay describing a student's interests or why they want to study at that school. The schools also ask for letters from teachers or other responsible adults describing why a student is a good candidate. But，Hawkins says, the area that schools are most concerned with is a student’s high school grades and standardized test results.
The report suggests that paying attention to academic success over other qualities works well for some students but hurts others. In addition, Academic success is not the most important quality a student should have. More attention should be paid to showing whether or not a student wants to do good in the world.The report also suggests that schools should ask for evidence that students care about other people. Moving attention away from academic ability will make the process less about campetition,the report says. Students will feel less stress about meeting higher and higher and higher expectations.
But the report have its critics. Bob Schaeffer, Public Education Director, said that every few years,someone makes same argument for change. He said that no real change has happened yet that even many of the schools that agree with me report still make no changes. "Many of the instutions that have supported the findings in the report are the very institutions that have the most competitive admission processes in the country，” Schaeffer said.
28.What is the problem of the admission process according to the report？
A. The schools ask social responsibilities from the applying students.
B. The schools attach importance to students' academic records.
C. The number of students getting admitted is too small.
D.Admission officers only consider personal qualities.
29. Which of the following do colleges ask of applicants except ？
A. Their reasons to attend the school.
B. A description of their interests.
C. Recommendation letters from adults.
D. Evidence that students care about others.
30. What does the author’s attitude to the report of the admission process？
A.Supportive.
B. Doubtful
C. Neutral.
D. Negative.
31. The critic, Bob Schaefter, thinks that .
A. some schools don't do what they believe is right
B. the largest schools are expected to make changes first
C. not enough schools currently agree with the report
D. history has proved that all changes are good

There is no denying that some people live to be older than others. Followed are the standard explanations：keeping a moderate diet, engaging in regular exercise, etc. But what effect does your personality have on your longevity （长寿）？ Are there any kinds of personalities contributing to longer lives？ A new study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society looked at these questions by examining the personality characteristics of 246 children of people who had lived to be at least 100.
According to the study, those who live the longest are more outgoing, more active and less neurotic（神经质的）than other people. Long-living women are also more likely to be sympathetic and cooperative than women with a normal life span. These findings are in
agreement with You would expect from the evolutionary theory：those who like to make friends and help others can gather enough resources to make it through tough times.
Interestingly, however, other characteristics that you might consider advantageous had no impact on whether study participants were likely to live longer. Those who were more self-discipline^ f0r instance, were no more likely to live to be very old. Also, being open to new ideas had no relationship to long life, which might explain all those bad-tempered old people who are fixed in their
Whether you can successfully change your personality as an adult is the subject of a longstanding psychogical debate.But the new paper suggests that if you want long life, you should strive to be as outgoing as possible.
Unfortunately, another recent study shows that your mother's personality may also help determine your longevity.That study looked at nearly 28, 000 Norwegian mothers and found that those moms who were more anxious, depressed and angry were more likely to feed their kids
unhealthy diets. Patterns of childhood eating can be hard to break when we're adults,which may mean that kids of depressed moms end up dying younger.
Personality isn't destiny, and everyone knows that individuals can learn to change. But both studies show that long life isn't just a matter of your physical health but of your mental health.
32.The purpose of the study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society is .
Ato see whether people’s personality affects their life span
B.to find ou t if one’s lifestyle has any effect on their health
C. to investigate the role of exercise in living a long life
D. to examine all the factors contributing to longevity
33. What does the author imply about outgoing and sympathetic people？
A. They have a good understanding of evolution.
B. They are better at negotiating an agreement.
C. They generally appear more resourceful.
D. They are more likely to get over hardship.
34. What finding of the study might prove somewhat out of our expectation？
A. Easy-going people can also live a relatively long life.
B. Advantageous personality characteristics actually vary with times.
C. Such characteristics as self-discipline have no effect on longevity.
D. Readiness to accept new ideas helps one enjoy longevity.
35.What is the main idea of this passage？
A. Anxiety and depression cut one s life span short.
B. Longevity results from mental and physical health.
C. Personality plays a decisive role in longevity.
D. Health is in large part related to one’s lifestyle.
第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分〉
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Different Cultures
The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other a lot 36_
The origin of the Eastern culture is mainly from two countries：China and India. Both of the two cultures are developed by rivers — the Yellow River in China and the Hindu River in India.__37
When the two mother rivers 6ave birth to the Eastern culture, another famous culture was
up on the Mesopotamian Plain …the Mesopotamian Civilizatio n. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. 38 Like the Chinese culture, the
European culture also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over the Atlantic Ocean. So the American culture doesn’t distinguish from the European culture a lot.
At the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences.Take the language system for example. In the East, most languages belong to the pictographic language while the westerm languages are mostly based on the Latin system. Other causes like human race differences count as well.But what's more,due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and the west, the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. 39
The differences are everywhere.40_But different cultures make the world of 21st century more colorful. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle to the civilization of human being. It ought to be the motivation of our going farther.
A. Let us work together to keep a variety of cultures.
B.And these two are well - known as the base of the European culture.
C. One important thing is to learn about other cultures.
D .This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.
E.They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world.
F. They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and from their own styles.
G. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no interference from the other.
