But there are a few things in life I’d probably do differe ntly if I had the chance.I once majored in architecture — something I had been crazy about for as long as I could remember —and then I suddenly had a change of heart. I made an appointment with my adviser, and told him I was no longer certain I wanted to pursue a career in architecture.“Don’t give up on your childhood dream!” “He’s right,” I thought. “I should just stick it out and I shouldn’t disappoint the little girl who once loved architecture.”It was terrible. I was agonized, holding on to a childhood dream that had long since faded. When I talked with a friend about it a year later, he asked: “Right now, what do you want to do with your life?” That’s when I came to the realization that dreams change over time and that you should give up the childho od dream if it’s not what you want as an adult. Luckily, it wasn’t too late. After some serious thought, I changed my major to journalism. It wasn’t something I had always imagined myself pursuing — but at that moment, it was what I wanted.We grow up, and sometimes our dreams change —and that’s perfectly OK. You just need to ask yourself every once in a while, “Is this still what I want?” If the answer is no, move on and start chasing a new one.21．What does the author suggest in Paragraph 1?A. Past actions should be treasured.B. It’s unwise to regret all the time.C. Life would be dull without “What if?”D. We make better decisions by looking back.22．What does the underlined word “agonized” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. ProudB. DeterminedC. UnregretfulD. Painful23．Why didn’t the author change her major immediately?A. Changing a major was uncommon.B. Her advisor forced her not to do that.C. She didn’t want her childhood dream to fade.D. She thought it a betrayal(背叛) of her younger self.24．What lesson did the author learn from the experience?A. Don’t follow others’ career advice.B. Improve us before realizing our dream.C. It’s OK to switch to our real love.D. Childhood dreams are hard to insist on.BAfter 21 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner and a movie. The other woman was my mother, who has been a widow (寡妇) for 19 years. However, the demands of my work and my three children had made it possible to visit her only occasionally.That Friday after work, when I arrived at her house, my mother was waiting in the door with her coat on. She had curled (使卷曲) her hair and was wearing the dress that she had worn to celebrate her last wedding anniversary.We went to a restaurant that, although not elegant, was very nice and cozy (舒适的). My mother took my arm as if she were the First Lady. During the dinner, we had an agreeable conversation about nothing extraordinary(非凡的) but just caught upon recent events. We talked so much that we missed the movie.As we arrived at her house later, she said，“I’ll go out with you again, but only if you let me invite you.” I agreed. A few days later, my mother died of a massive (严重的) heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn’t have a chance to do anything for her.Sometime later, I received an envelope with a copy of a restaurant receipt (收据) from the same place mother and I had dined. An attached note said: “I paid this bill in advance. I wasn’t sure whether I could be there; still, I paid for two plates –one for you and the other for your wife. You will never know what that night meant for me. I love you, Son.”At that moment, I understood the importance of saying “I love you” and of giving our loved ones the time they deserve. Nothing in life is more important than family. Give family members the attention they deserve, because these things cannot be put off till some “other” time.25.

Language experts, however, will tell you that you’re never too old to learn a new language. As you get older, it can be more difficult to learn a new language, though.Children and adults learn new languages in different ways．For children, language is their life. They study for thousands of hours every year, because they need to learn language to become part of their communities. Adults, on the other hand，are already part of a language community. Learning a new language means becoming part of another language community, and adults rarely get the chance to practice as much as young children do.Moreover, children learning a new language are expected to make mistakes. This gives them freedom when learning to be daring and confident. Adults, however, often feel pressured to be perfect when learning a new language. This can frighten many people and make it even harder to learn a new language.Research has shown that children who learn a new language when they are very young are not likely to have a “foreign” accent when speaking a different language. Some scientists also believe that it can take up to 10,000 hours of study to master a new language．This can be difficult for adults to achieve, but young children can accumulate those hours over several years as they grow up.When young children learn a new language, they come to see multiple(多样的) lan guages as a “normal” part of society. This mindset helps them learn a new language without feeling they’re doing something unusual or “too hard”.So if you want to learn a new language, go for it! It’s never too late to learn a new language.29. Which of the following statement will the author agree with?A. People learn new languages in similar ways.B. Children should learn a new language at a very young age.C. The more languages people learn, the more ability they will get.D. People shouldn’t be afraid of making mistakes when learning a language.30. What is the difference between children and adults when learning a new language?A. Adults have more confidence.B. Children learn it much faster.C. Adults have more chances to practice.D. Children are afraid of being laughed at.31. The underlined word “mindset” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by ____.A. thoughtB. methodC. activityD. measure32. What is mainly talked about in the text?A. Why adults are afraid to learn a new language.B. How people can learn a new language faster.C. Why languages are difficult to learn as people get older.D. What difficulty people might have when learning a new language.DAfter noticing that her eight grade students had problems focusing during math class, a North Carolina teacher decided to channel their energy in a different way —cycling.It doesn’t sound like the most common thing to do during math class, but Bethany Lambeth, a teacher from Wake County, says that ever since she fixed cycling machines under her students’ desks, they are more focused, and, most importantly, they are no longer fidgeting (烦躁) all the time.“Before, they were drumming on their desks, they were touching other people, they don’t do that any more.Their feet are getting the movement out,” she said. “There has been a huge increase in the quality of our student’s work and a decrease in the amount of missing work.”Lambeth fixed the cycling machines at the end of last year, paying around $150 for each, which includes a warranty(授权). The cost was covered by donations and a money from the 4-C fund. No tax-payer money was used, but judging by the results observed by the Wake County teacher, this might be a solution authorities might want to look into. After learning about the success of Lambeth’s project, school officials are particularly excited about the role cycling machines could play in Special Education classes.The kids obviously love the new “toys”.Sofia Fedele, one of Lambeth’s students, said cycling helps her focus on her work during class. “I usually tap my feet and so on just because it keeps me focused,” she said, adding that pedaling(踩踏板) is much better. “It keeps me exercising and focused.”33. Why did Lambeth fix cycling machines?A. T o direct students’ energy.B. To get on well with students.C. To raise students’ health consciousness.D. To provide students a way to lose weight.34. What will the school do next?A. To raise more money for Lambeth.B. To observe the effect of cycling machines.C. To fix more cycling machines in the classrooms.D. To call on parents to fix cycling machines at home.35. What does Sofia Fedele think of pedaling?A. Disappointing.B. Useless.C. Exciting.D. Helpful. 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。
