【题目】It seems that the great desire among the young is to be popular. The desire to be popular can force you into looking and acting like everyone else. You can lose yourself in a sea of identical hairstyles and thinking styles.

I was forced to think about popularity not too long ago in a talk I had with my daughter. Margy had to change schools when my busy work schedule made it necessary for me to move houses. I suppose that, for a girl in her teens, entering a new school is like spending a season alone in the tropical jungles. At least that’s how Margy found it at first. However, as the school year drew to a close, one student after another came to her. I told Margy that I would have been more concerned if she had been an instant social success in her new school. Nobody can please everyone. If you try to do so, you will find values as lasting as soap bubbles blown into the air.

Some teenagers claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in a certain way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon into a larger cocoon.

I know that it has become harder for a young person to stand up against the popularity wave. Our way of life makes a young nonconformist stand out like a Martian. These days there’s a great barrier for the young person who wants to find his or her own path. But the barrier is worth climbing over. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. Well, go to it. Be yourself. Popularity will come with the people who respect you for who you are. That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.

【1】Why was the author worried about his daughter’s popularity in her new school?

A.She might find no true friends.

B.She would ignore her academic performance.

C.She had no idea of her own.

D.She might betray her true self.

【2】What does the author think of most teenagers?

A.They’re afraid of getting lost in life.

B.They have difficulty understanding each other.

C.They lack the courage to be truly different.

D.They find it hard to gain popularity as expected.

【3】What is the probable meaning of the underlined word "nonconformist" in Paragraph 4?

A.Someone who cares about others’ opinion.

B.Someone who desires popularity greatly.

C.Someone who behaves in his own way.

D.Someone who wants to please others.

【4】What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage?

A.To persuade readers to pursue valuable popularity.

B.To tell parents how to guide their children.

C.To criticize the present values and beliefs.

D.To suggest a good way to be popular.

【题目】Two years ago, Dimas Aliprandi and Elton Plaster didn’t know of each others existence. Then they learned they had been switched at birth by mistake more than 20 years ago. The discovery didn’t bring bitterness. Rather, it led to the creation of a bigger family.

The chain of events started with Dimas, who was always wondering why he did not look like the four sisters he grew up with. He was 14 when his doubts grew after watching a TV news report on babies getting switched at birth because of mistakes at hospitalsHe wanted to do a DNA test, but it was too expensive for the family.

A decade later, Dimas did it on his own. The DNA test showed that he was not the birth son of the man and woman who had raised him. The news was a shock for his parents. They at first refused to believe the results, but eventually decided to help him look for his biological parents.

The search began at the Madre Regina Protmann Hospital where records were checked. The hospital searched its records and found Elton Plaster was born there on the same day.

The records led Dimas to the 35-acre farm where Piaster lived, with his parents, Nilza and Adelson, in the town of Santa Maria de Jetiba, about 30 miles from the Aliprandi home in Joao Neiva. After tests, the Plasters discovered that Elton was the biological son of the man and woman that Dimas had been calling Mom and Dad for 24 years. Meanwhile, the couple Elton, had always regarded as his biological parents were Dimas’ parents.

About a year ago, Aliprandi and the parents who raised him accepted an offer from the Plasters to move to their farm, where they built a home. “This is the way it should be,” Adelson Plaster recently told Globo TV. “ We are all together and I now have two sons living and working here.

1Who was the first to discover the baby switch?

A. Globo TV. B. The hospital.

C. Elton Plaster. D. Dimas Aliprandi.

2Where do the Aliprandis now live?

A. In Sao Pauo. B. In Joao Neiva.

C. In Madre Regina Protmann. D. In Santa Maria de Jetiba.

3What did the Aliprandis do when they knew about the baby switch?

A. They took another DNA test.

B. They switched the hospital s records.

C. They went to Globo TV for more information.

D. They helped Dimas find his birth parents.

4Who are Elton Plaster’s biological parents?

【题目】How to Win a Debate Competition

Debating doesn’t mean that you can end up arguing with your opponents(对手). 1 The following tips on how to win a debate will further help you out.

2

This is very important. If you already know the debate topic that you are going to debate on, learn as much about it as you can. Research on it and then form opinions about it. Only if you know something in and out, will you be able to talk convincingly on it.

2Be confident.

When you are putting your point in front of your opponents as well as the audience, be sure of yourself. Along with the words, your body language, voice modulation (语调) and eye contact, will play a major part in your success in debating. 3

Give real life examples.

While debating, make use of very simple language, which your audience can understand very easily. Give as many real examples as you can when making a point. 4 Thus, the judges and audience will find you much more convincing.

Be descriptive.

To win any debate, there is something about the human mind that you should be aware of. The thing with us humans is that if we see something, we believe and remember it much more than something we merely hear! 5 Tell your point of view in such a way that they can actually “see” what you are saying. If you are somehow able to pull this off, there is no doubt that you will be the winner of the debate competition!

Follow the tips mentioned above, and with time, you will see yourself winning over your judges and audience.

A. Be well prepared.

B. Promote dialogue instead of arguing with your opponents.

C. Try to paint a picture in the mind of your judges and audience.

D. So participate in as many debating contests as you can.

E. To prove your point, tell something you or someone else has personally experienced.

F. So practice with friends or in front of the mirror so that you are certain of your ability.

G. Your main purpose is to convince your audience what you are saying is right.
