    3．Being Authoritative （由权威的） ParentsPhrases like"tiger mom"and‘‘helicopter parent"have made their way into everyday language．Many of us find ourselves drawn to the idea that with just a bit more parental hard work and effort，we might turn out children with bright futures．But is there anything wrong with a kind of"overparenting style"？
    Parental involvement has a long history of being studied．Many of the studies，conducted by Diana Baumrind，a famous psychologist at the University of California，Berkeley，have found that a good parent is the one who is involved and reacts to her child in a positive way，who sets high expectations but gives her child independence．These"authoritative parents"appear to hit the sweet spot of parental involvement and generally raise children who do better academically，psychologically and socially than children whose parents are not strict and less involved，or controlling and more involved．Why is this parenting style so successful？
    Authoritative parents actually help improve motivation in their children．Carol Dweck，a social psychologist at Stanford University，has done research that indicates why authoritative parents raise more motivated children．In a typical experiment，Dr．Dweck takes young children into a room and asks them to solve a simple puzzle．Most do so with little difficulty．But then Dr．Dweck tells some，but not all，of the kids how clever they are．As it turns out，the children who are not told they're smart are more motivated to solve increasingly difficult puzzles．They also show higher levels of confidence and show greater progress in puzzle-solving．
    As the experiment suggests，praising children's talents and abilities seems to shake their confidence．Dealing with more difficult puzzles carries the risk of losing one's status as"smart"．Dr．Dweck's work strongly supports that of Dr．Baumrind，who also found that reasonably supporting a child's independence and limiting interference （干涉） causes better academic and emotional results．
    The central task of growing up is to develop a sense of self that is independent and confident．If you treat your young child who is just learning to walk as if she can't walk，you reduce her confidence．Allowing children to make mistakes is one of the greatest challenges of parenting．It is easier when they are young．The potential mistakes carry greater risks，and part of being a parent is reducing risk for our children．
    24．According to the passage，a"tiger mom"D．
    A．helps her children realize their dreams      
    B．speaks her children's everyday language
    C．places reasonable expectations on her children   
    D．pays close attention to her children's experiences
    25．It is implied that controlling style of parenting mayC．
    A．face more challenges of children         
    B．foster independence in children
    C．cause more problems in children              
    D．lead to children's academic success
    26．The example of the children doing the puzzles suggests thatB．
    A．a good game plays a big role in training young minds
    B．overpraising makes children less motivated a nd confident
    C．puzzle-solving can give children the motivation they need
    D．bright children usually show less confidence in difficult games
    27．The last paragraph tells us thatC．
    A．children should not be given much freedom
    B．parents should not increase the risk of challenging
    C．parents should allow their children to learn from mistakes
    D．children should correct mistakes with the help of their parents．

    7．Blue-eyed people have been living in Europe for at least 7，000years，scientists have discovered．
    A man who lived on the Iberian Peninsula before Europeans became farmers probably had blue eyes but dark hair and skin，according to scientists who have sequenced （排序） his DNA．This surprising combination of eye，hair and skin coloring may not have been unusual during his lifetime，but it is no longer seen among modern Europeans，the team reported Sunday in the journal Nature．
    The man，a Neolithic hunter-gatherer known to scientists as La Bra?a 1，is of great interest to scientists because he offers a photograph of what was in Europeans'DNA before agriculture （农业） spread through the continent．Experts have understood that certain genetic （基因的） features spread quickly among humans after they led the farming lifestyle．La Bra?a 1shows that at least some of their expectations were correct．
    The man's skeleton，along with that of a male companion，was discovered in 2006in a cave in what is now northeastern Spain．The site，known as La Bra?a-Arintero，sits about 5，000feet above sea level，and the cave provided a cold，refrigerator-like environment that preserved his DNA．
    In the lab，scientists were able to take out enough DNA from a single tooth to reconstruct La Bra?a 1's entire genome （基因组）．They compared it to the DNA of other ancient Europeans and determined that he was a closer match with hunter-gatherers than with farmers．
    When it came to genes that would influence La Bra?a 1's appearance，the researchers found that their 7，000-year-old subject had versions of two skin pigment （色素） genes that are either very rare or nonexistent among Europeans today．Then they looked at other places in the genome that influence pigmentation and found a mix of ancient and modern gene variants （变体）．Taken together，La Bra?a 1's DNA"is likely to have resulted in dark skin pigmentation and dark or brown hair，"they wrote．
    However，his DNA indicates that his eyes were most likely blue，the scientists found．This suggests that gene variants for light-colored eyes and skin did not spread together，they wrote，adding that La Bra?a 1's combination"of dark skin and non-brown eyes is unique and no longer present in contemporary European populations．"Today，a blue-eyed person would usually have fair skin．
    To get some idea of whether La Bra?a 1's coloring was unusual for his day，the researchers will try to sequence the DNA of his companion，who has been named La Bra?a=2．
    25．Why scientists are interested in La Bra?a 1？B
    A．They can know Europeans'DNA．
    B．They can know European hunter-gatherers'DNA．
    C．They can know the ancient agriculture in Europe．
    D．They can know some of their expectations were correct．
    26．La Bra?a 1was well preserved due toD．
    A．dry weather        
    B．a high cave     
    C．proper protection          
    D．cold conditions
    27．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？A
    A．La Bra?a 1's DNA influenced his appearance．
    B．La Bra?a 1's appearance influenced contemporary Europeans．
    C．La Bra?a 1's gene variants spread together．
    D．La Bra?a 1's genes are completely different from contemporary Europeans'．
    28．The last paragraph suggests thatD．
    A．La Bra?a 2has the same genome with La Bra?a 1
    B．Blue-eyed people were common in Europe 7，000years ago
    C．Bra?a 1's combination of dark skin and non-brown eyes is unique
    D．It's not certain that La Bra?a's appearance was common at his time．

    8．People，like all living things，need food．Food gives us the nutrients our bodies need．（36）AEnergy is needed to carry out the life processes．
    Our bodies cannot use the nutrients or energy in food unless the food is changed．The changing of food into a form the body can use is called digestion．
    What does digestion do？（37）E Digestion also changes the chemicals of food．It changes large，complex food molecules （微粒） into smaller，simpler ones．
     （38）C Digestion takes place in the digestive tract．The digestive tract is a long，winding tube in your body．If stretched out，the digestive tract would be more than 9 meters （30 feet） long．
    What are the parts of the digestive tract？The parts of the digestive tract are：the mouth，the foodpipe，the stomach，the small intestine（肠），and the large intestine
    There are many organs along the digestive tracts，such as the liver．（39）F The digestive tract and the other digestive organs make up your digestive system．
    Food enters the body through the mouth．Waste materials （undigested food） leave the body through the anus（肛门）．The anus is at the end of the large intestine．
    Digestion is a step-by-step process．（40）B It takes food from one to two days to pass through the entire digestive tract．

    A．It also gives us energy．
    B．It does not take place quickly．
    C．Where does digestion take place？
    D．Does the food also give us much strength？
    E．Digestion breaks down large pieces of food into smaller pieces．
    F．These organs are not part of the digestive tract，but they help in digestion．
    G．Although they don't belong to the digestive tract，they help us fight diseases．
