AEven before my father left us, my mother had to go back to work to supportour family. Once I came out of the kitchen, complaining, “Mum, I can’t peelpotatoes. I have only one hand.”Mum never looked up from sewing. “You get yourself into that kitchen andpeel those potatoes,”she told me. “And don’t ever use that as an excuse foranything again!”In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground andhad each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod tothe next. When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids behind me laughed, andI went home crying.That night I told Mum about it. She hugged me, and I saw her “we’ll seeabout that”look. The next afternoon, she took me back to school. At thedeserted playground, mum looked carefully at the bars.“Now, pull up with your right arm,”she advised. She stood by as Istruggled to lift myself with my right hand until I couldhook the bar with myother elbow. Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every rung Ireached.I’ll never forget the next time, crossing the rungs; I looked down at thekids who were standing with their mouths open.One night, after a dance at my new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing. Icould hear Mum came into my room. “Mum,”I said, weeping, “None of the boyswould dance with me.”For a long time, I didn’t hear anything. Then she said, “Oh, honey, somedayyou’ll be beating those boys off with a bat.”Her voice was faint and cracking.I peeked out from my covers to see tears running down her cheeks. Then I knewhow much she suffered on my behalf. She had never let me see her tears.1.Which of the following expressions can be used most suitably to describeMum’s attitude when she made the child peel potatoes?A. CruelB. SeriousC. StrictD. Cold2.

The most probable conclusion we can draw after reading the passage is____.A. the last incident was sad enough to make Mum weepB. the child’s experience reminded Mum of that of her ownC. Mum could solve any problem except the one in the last paragraphD. Mum suffered more in the process of the child’s growth actuallyBMany people in the United States like eggs for breakfast. There are manydifferent ways to cook eggs. One of the most common kinds of eggs for breakfastis scrambled eggs. In addition, this is one of the easiest dishes to cook. Readthis recipe(秘法)for scrambled eggs and you will see how easy it is.Scrambled EggsUtensils Ingredientsa frying pana spatula(刮勺)1 tea spoona fork or spoona small bowl eggs2 tablespoons of milk or buttersaltpepper(胡椒)Steps:1) Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium(适中的)heat.2) In a small bowl, mix the eggs and the milk.

However, whetheryou are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be awarethat your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not onlylarge areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts ofchemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球场)in goodcondition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dryregions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious watershortage in some local areas.There are many environment-friendly sport. Power walking is one of themthat you could take up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a goodpair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about resources and your purse.Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, itwill be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of powerwalking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weightcontrol.Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener byusingenvironment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials.But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements fortraditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms playsports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no specialrequirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.8.Which of the following is the author most probably in favor of?A. Cycling around a lake.B. Motor racing in the desert.C. Playing basketball in a gym.D. Swimming in a sports center.9.What do we know about golf from the passage?A. It is popular in Portugal and Spain.B.

Researchers at Harvard University in the United States and theStockholm School of Economics in Sweden did the study.They had about two hundred college students play a version of the gameknown as the Prisoner’s Dilemma. The game is based on the tension between theinterests of an individual and a group. The students played in groups of four.Each player could win points for the group, so they would all gain equally. Buteach player could also reward or punish each of the other three players. Harvardresearcher David Rand says the most successful behavior proved to becooperation. The groups that rewarded it the most earned about twice as much inthe game as the groups that rewarded it the least. And the more a group punisheditself, the lower its earnings. The study appeared last month in the journalScience.The other study involved children. It was presented last month inCalifornia at a conference on violence and abuse. Researchers used intelligencetests given to two groups. More than eight hundred children were aged two tofour the first time they were tested. More than seven hundred children were agedfive to nine. The two groups were retested four years later, and the studycompared the results with the first test. Both groups contained children whoseparents used physical punishment and children whose parents did not.The study says the IQs of the younger children who were not spanked werefive points higher than those who were. In the older group, the difference wasalmost three points. The more they are spanked, the slower their mentaldevelopment.12.According to the first study, we mainly infer that .A.the game is called Prisoner’s DilemmaB.the less a group punished itself, the lower its earningsC.adults are much more cooperative if rewardedD.the game is introduced in the journal Science13.Which of the following is TRUE according to the second study?A.Children s IQs have much to do with physical punishment.B.The study is about violence and cooperation of children.C.The children tested were divided into groups of four.D.Children s mental development only relies on their IQs.14.What does the underlined word spanked refer to?A. Punished.B. Blamed.C. Tested.D. Praised.15.What might be the best title for the text?A. The Best Way to Correct MisbehaviorB. Punishment Is the Best Way of EducationC. Cooperation Is the Most Successful BehaviorD. Punishment or Reward: Which Works Better on Behavior?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。
