四、阅读理解
There’s a box of chocolates in the fridge. It’s been there for more than a week since I was given it as a present. I do love chocolates, but they make me fat if I eat too many! Can I control myself? If I eat one, will I have to eat all of them?
My son Harry is obsessed with playing Wii(/wi:/, 任天堂的一款游戏机) games. Sometimes, it’s difficult to get him to concentrate on his homework because he wants to play some more.
Last week I had to wake up a student in my class. I asked him why he was so tried and he said he had stayed up late to play his favourite Internet game, Farmville. He said he just couldn’t stop playing it! Now his academic work is suffering because he can’t control his urge to play games.
What my son, my student, and I myself need is simply self-control.
In the late 1960’s, American psychologist Walter Mischel launched an experiment about self-control. He left a group of four-year-olds in a room and told them that if they could wait 20 minutes, they could have two marshmallows, a kind of sweet. If they couldn’t wait, he would only give them one.
In videos of the experiment, you can see children squirming, kicking, hiding their eyes—desperately trying to control themselves. Some did wait patiently, while others couldn’t wait a single minute.
Years later, the self-controlled children turned out to get higher SAT scores and got into better colleges. The children who couldn’t wait were more likely to become bullies.
So, the chocolates are still in the fridge. My son Harry is doing his homework with a promise that he can play on the Wii later, and my student says he will try harder to control himself. We all have our own temptations. But if we can control them, we will achieve more.

B. The writer’s son is addicted to Farmville.
C. The writer’s student is addicted to chocolates.
D. The writer’s student is addicted to Farmville.

科目:高中英语 来源:期末题 题型:阅读理解
"Do something amazing. Save a life. Give blood."That's the message being delivered to
homes across the UK. The UK's National Blood Service is running a TV and radio campaign
using well-known personalities, such as business leader Richard Branson, to encourage people
to donate blood.
Only 6 percent of people in the UK have been giving blood. People can register to donate
with the National Blood Service.There are currently l.9 million blood donors registered. Fifteen
percent of these are lost each year because of moving, ill health, or even death. The service
collects over 2 million donations every year. It encourages people to give blood three times
a year and needs 8 000 blood donations every day to keep up with demand.
Because blood donations in the UK are voluntary, the donor receives no money for their
good act. And they must be between the ages of 17 and 60 and are asked questions about
their health before donating. Many people are reluctant to give blood because they think it
will be bad for their health or that they will get an infection. Whenever mobile units are in
town, the National Blood Service hands out iriformation on how to donate blood safely to.
The service has also worked on speeding up the donation process so that people can he
in and out in 30 minutes. All blood is examined before use, but there have been cases where
this has gone wrong. In 2001, the National Health Service had to pay out 150 million dollars
to hundreds of people who became infected with hepatitis C after receiving a blood transfusion.
