【题目】Every year gray whales swim a 10,000 miles round-trip, from the cold waters near Alaska, down the coast of North America to the warm waters near Mexico, and back again. It is one of the longest migrations (迁徙) of any mammal (哺乳动物).
All day, all summer long, in the cold waters near Alaska, gray whales eat and eat.
Instead of teeth, gray whales have baleen (鲸须) they use to get food from ocean water. They get big mouthfuls of muck (淤泥) from the ocean floor, then push that muck right back out through their baleen. The mucky water flows through, but tiny animals get trapped in the baleen and licked up.
When the water starts to freeze, the whales begin their long trip south. They swim night and day, without stopping to eat or rest. During the long journey, migrating whales may push their heads out of the water to see where they are.
Two months later, the whales reach Mexico. Babies are born here in warm, shallow (浅的) waters called lagoons (濒海湖). Ocean lagoons have no food for the adults, but the babies are safer here than in the open seas. All winter the babies grow big and strong.
In spring first the dads and teenagers leave the lagoons, then the moms with babies. Migrating gray whales swim close to shore, especially moms with babies. The ice is melting up (融化) north, and it’s time for the hungry whales to make the long journey back to their summer feeding grounds.

【题目】Online Degrees
Today, you can earn a degree from a major university without ever having sat in one of their classrooms. Many colleges and universities are offering online courses and degree programs now.
Online Learning Programs
With a computer and an Internet connection, you can earn a degree from home, work, or anywhere else for that matter. Online degree programs follow much the same routines as traditional learning, with a few twists. There are lectures, but they won't be in person. There are assignments (作业), but you won't hand them to your instructor. In most situations, you are free to “go to class” when it fits your schedule. If you get a phone call during class, you don't have to miss anything. If you get sick, you don't have to ask for someone's notes, and you just visit the lecture later.
You'll communicate with your instructor by e-mail, chat room and instant messaging. Your classroom will live in a special software program. Contrary to popular belief, you will have close contact with other students and the instructor.
Evaluating the Program
There are a lot of questions to ask before you make your selection, such as:
How do students interact with each other?
★Online programs can use chat rooms, instant messaging, teleconferencing, and video conferencing to communicate. The key is to find a program that has this interaction built into it and even requires it.
★What kind of reputation does the school have?
It may seem simple-a good school will have a good online program. This reputation, however, may not be as straightforward as you think. It's not uncommon for a great school to have a weak program or two. So you'd better look at the overall quality of the school and make a judgment.
The Employers' View
As more and more employees get online degrees and use them in the workforce(职场) , hiring managers will begin to feel more secure about the quality of education these people have.
【1】In which way is online education special?
A. If you get sick, you'll miss the lecture.
B. There are lectures, but you don't need to meet the lecturers.
C. If you get a phone call during class, you will miss something.
D. There are assignments, and you must hand them to your instructor.
【2】What is the most important part of online communication?
A. To use e-mails.
B. To look for a program with interaction.
C. To use chat rooms and instant messaging.
D. To use teleconferencing and video conferencing.
【3】For whom is the passage probably written?
A. College students.
B. Hiring managers.
C. Adult students.
D. High school students.

【题目】Most of us will admit that on occasions we can be bad-tempered. This can be for a number of reasons.
【1】 As the body and mind are tired, it seems to take us less time to become angry just because of something that is of little importance. Young children are usually the cause of tiredness and it is highly likely that parents allow themselves to release(释放) their exhaustion directly at the children. Children are very good at remembering these instances and it will affect them for a long time. 【2】
Diet and lifestyle can be key factors in causing a bad temper. Some people don't realize that their diet can directly affect their moods. Processed food and items that contain a lot of sugars, especially those that aren't natural sugars, can cause a rise in blood sugar. 【3】 Similarly, lifestyle choices can encourage bad tempers and poor moods, especially if drug and alcohol are used too frequently. 【4】
If you have noticed that you are becoming increasingly bad-tempered, it is important that you take steps to try and regain control. 【5】 After you find the cause, try and make positive changes to prevent this from occurring in the future.
A.Find your ways to release your anger.
B.Check what it is that causes the bad mood.
C.Tiredness is often the most common reason.
D.Managing your anger is good for your health.
E.Therefore, it is important to have more patience when with children.
F.This rise can have a very negative effect on moods and mental performance.
G.So it is important to keep away from these temptations(诱惑) for your own mental state.

【题目】All parents know that one of their most important tasks is to prepare their children for an independent life, but any parent can tell you that it's hard to let go of your children. That balance between keeping your children safe and allowing them to learn from their own mistakes can be heartbreaking. Years of experience means that parents often do know best, but on the other hand, the young, being less bound by tradition, are often more creative,more able to find new solutions to old problems. Revolutions_are_led_by_the_young.
Good teachers make the growth of critical (批判性的) thinking easier in their students, only to find that this can lead to a questioning of the teachers' basic beliefs. Schools encourage parents to become involved, but are often embarrassed when parents have reservations about some of the educational methods being used. Governments encourage unimportant groups to empower themselves in order to participate fully in the development process. And they are often surprised when the new leaders of these groups turn around and attack the policies of that same government. The rebellious (叛逆的)young and the newly unimportant groups are important in social development. They are not necessarily representatives of those they want to represent or not realistic in their demands,but their voices must be heard.
Good parents know that just forbidding particular behaviors does not prevent their children from finding ways to engage in these forbidden activities. Indeed, sometimes the forbidden fruit is more inviting,just because it is not accepted by authority. Parents must work with their children to educate them on the facts,know as much as possible about the lives of their children, provide a good example, encourage more wholesome activities but also support their children when they don't follow what is expected of them. But the most important point is that they also need to learn how to let go.
【1】By saying “Revolutions are led by the young” in Paragraph 1, the author indicates that young people are more________.
A. conventional B. realistic
C. creative D. heartbreaking
【2】From the second paragraph we know ________.
A. teachers' basic beliefs should be questioned by students
B. schools encourage parents to question their educational methods
C. the government is satisfied with the new leaders' attack on the policies
D. the voice of the rebellious young should be heard by the government
【3】In order to educate children well, parents should ________.
A. forbid particular behaviors in their daily life
B. know them well and set a good example to them
C. educate them with facts and expect much of them
D. know as much as possible as their children
【4】From the passage we can learn that the author prefers ________.
A. free parenting
B. traditional parenting
C. smart parenting
D. critical parenting
