【题目】I hear many parents saying that their teenage children are rebellious(反叛的).I wish it were so.At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents.You should be learning to stand on your own two feet.But take a good took at the present rebellion.It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents.Instead of striking out bravely on their own,most of them are trying to seize at one another's hands for safety.

They say they want to dress as they please.But they all wear the same clothes.They set off in new directions in music.But somehow reason for thinking or acting in thus-and-such a way is that the crowd is doing it.They have come out of their cocoon(蚕茧)—into a larger cocoon.

But the difficulty is worth getting over.The path is worth following.You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party.You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records.You may have some thoughts that you don't care to share at once with your classmates.Well,go to it.Find yourself.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.

【题目】 Heads up! Across the country, sports injuries are a safety concern for young athletes. Now, the American Medical Association (AMA) has a new set of guidelines aimed at protecting players from the danger of concussions—serious injuries caused by a blow to the head.

“By raising awareness of the serious risks associated with concussions and ensuring that the appropriate guidelines are in place, we can reduce the number of young athletes who may return to the game too soon, which can put their health at further risk,” said AMA Board Member Jack Resneck Jr. M.D., in a statement.

The policy recommends that young athletes who may have a concussion be taken off the field as soon as possible. Then, they are only to return to their sport with a doctor’s written approval. The policy also sets age-specific rules for health care professionals and athletic organizations in evaluating and caring for concussions.

According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC), a concussion is a type of traumatic(创伤) brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. This type of movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist inside the skull(颅骨). It can damage brain cells and create chemical changes in the brain.

The CDC says that between 1.6 million and 3.8 million traumatic brain injuries caused by sports and recreation-related activities occur in the U. S. every year. A study from the Center for Injury Research and Policy showed that as many as 40% of high school athletes return to playing before they should. The AMA’s new guidelines should help to bring those numbers down.

1Why does the AMA set the new guidelines?

A.To raise safety standards of sports.

B.To protect athletes from concussions.

C.To set rules for health care evaluation.

D.To help players return to the game quickly.

2What should young athletes who may have a concussion do?

A.Avoid using the head.B.Leave the field forever.

C.Get treatment in time.D.Switch to another sport.

3What is paragraph 4 mainly about?

A.What a concussion is.B.What causes damage to brain cells.

C.How the CDC works.D.How a concussion can be prevented.

4Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A.Rules for Safer PlayB.Sports Injuries in the US

C.Advice to AthletesD.New Policies for Doctors

【题目】Types of Family Structures

Family structure has changed noticeably over the last 50 years. 1

Nuclear Family

The nuclear family is the traditional type of family structure, consisting of two parents and children. 2 Children in nuclear families receive strength and stability from the two-parent structure and generally have more opportunities due o the financial ease of two adults In America, almost 70 percent of children live in a nuclear family unit.

Extended Family

The extended family structure consists of two or more adults who are related, either by blood or marriage, living in the same home. This family includes many relatives living together and working toward common goals. 3 Extended families are becoming increasingly common all over the world.

Stepfamily

Many marriages end in divorce, and many of these individuals choose to get remarried. This creates the stepfamily which involves two separate families merging into one new unit. 4 Stepfamilies are as common as the nuclear family, though they tend to have more problems. Stepfamilies need to learn to work together to ensure these family units run smoothly.

C. The nuclear family was long held by society as the ideal to raise children.

D. It consists of a new husband and wife and their children from previous marriages.

E. As long as a family is filled with love and support for one another, it is successful.

F. The following types of families exist today, with some falling into different kind.

【题目】 Many years ago, a French naturalist, the Count de Buffon, wrote some books about natural history. 1.

Thomas Jefferson did not like what the Count had said about the natural wonders of the New World. It seemed to Jefferson that the Count had gone out of his way to speak of natural wonders in America as if they were unimportant. 2. He, too, was a naturalist, as well as a historian, writer and politician. He had seen the natural wonders of Europe. To him, they were no more important than those of the New World.

In 1788,Thomas Jefferson wrote about his home state, Virginia. While writing, he thought of its natural beauty and then of the words of Count de Buffon. 3. He said, “The Count de Buffon believes that nature belittles her productions on this side of the Atlantic.”

4. However, in 1872, a famous American word expert decided that the time had come to kill this word. He said, “Belittle has no chance of becoming English. And as more critical writers of America, like those of Britain, feel no need of it, the sooner it is forgotten, the better.”

5. Today, belittle is used, not only in the United States and England, but in other countries where the English language is spoken. It seems that efforts to belittle the word did not stop people from using it.

A.The books were a great success even though some people did not like them

B.They talked about the great cultural relics of different countries

C.Americans had already accepted Jefferson’s word and started to use it

D.The Count de Buffon was thought highly of at that time

E.At that moment, Jefferson created a new word -- belittle

F.This expert failed to kill the word

G.This troubled Thomas Jefferson

【题目】 Scientists who study insects are troubled now. All across the United States, bees are leaving their hives and never returning. According to the beekeepers across the country, 25 to 40 percent of the bees in the United States have left their hives since last fall. So far, no one can explain why.

Bees play an important role in the production of about one third of the food we eat. A large number of plants not only need people’s care but also need bees that spread pollen from flower to flower. Without this process, a plant can’t produce seeds or fruits.

Now, a group of scientists and beekeepers are trying to find out what has happened. By examining bees’ behavior and health, they hope to find out what has caused the bees’ disappearance and to prevent bees from disappearing in the future.

Some people think the disappearance may be caused by disease. According to Dewey Caron, a researcher at the University of Delaware, the bees have signs of troubled immune systems (免疫系统) inside their bodies. But why would troubled immune systems cause bees to leave their hives? After all, when people are sick, they want to stay at home. Caron guesses that sick bees may have difficulty figuring out where their homes are.

“Another cause may be some chemicals that farmers use to kill unwanted insects on crops.” says Jerry Hayes, who works at the Florida Department of Agriculture.

1The underlined part “this process” refers to ________.

A.people’s care

B.bees’ leaving their hives

C.bees’ spreading pollen from flower to flower

D.beekeepers’ raising bees

2It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

A.the use of some chemicals is the cause of the bees disappearance

B.sick bees are not able to find where their hives are

C.it’s not known yet why a lot of bees are leaving their hives and never returning

D.there will be no bees in America in the near future

3What would be the best title for the passage?

A.Bees,Humans’ Friends

B.Scientists Are Interested in Bees

C.Why Are Bees Leaving?

D.How Do Bees Send out Information?

4The passage is most probably taken from ________.

A.science news

B.a public advertisement

C.a book on advanced technology

D.a business report
