     The over 55s who grew up watching blackandwhite programs and films are more likely to dream in
grey, research suggests.
     And the under 25s who have watched color TV all their lives tend to have colorful adventures in_the_
land_of_nod.
     Research from the first half of the 20th century, especially in the 1930s and 1950s, suggested that most dreams are in black and white.
     But results from tests in the 1960s and later suggested that up to 80 per cent of dreams contain some
colors.
     Since this period marked the transition  (过渡) from blackandwhite films and TV to widespread
Technicolor (彩色印片法), an obvious explanation was that television was influencing dreams, but
differences  between  the  studies  prevented  the researchers from drawing any firm conclusions.
     Later studies asked subjects  (实验对象)  to complete dream diaries immediately they woke up, but 
 the  earlier  research  used  questionnaires completed in the middle of the day, so the subjects might have
simply forgotten color elements in their dreams and assumed they were grey.
     To solve the problem, psychologist Eva Murzyn asked 60 subjects, half of whom were under 25 and
half over 55, to answer a questionnaire on the color of their dreams and their childhood exposure (暴露)
to films and TV.
     The subjects then recorded different aspects of their dreams in a diary every morning.
     She found there was no significant difference between results drawn from the questionnaires and the
dream diaries.
     She then analyzed data to find out whether an early exposure to blackandwhite TV or films could still
have a lasting effect on her subjects'dreams,40 years later.
Less than five per cent of the under25s'dreams were black and white.But the over55s who had access to
blackandwhite media in their younger days reported dreaming in black and white roughly a quarter of the
time.
     Murzyn said, "There could be a critical period in our childhood when watching films has a big influence on the way dreams are formed." People's attention might be heightened during the time they are watching
TV or films.
1. "this period" in  the fifth paragraph refers to________.
A. the 20th century  
B. the 1930s
C. the 1950s  
D. the 1960s and later
2 The underlined words "in the land of nod" in Paragraph 2 means________.
A. in the evening  
B. during travelling
C. in a dream world  
D. when they are thinking
3. Murzyn's study was different from other studies because  ________.
A. more people of different ages were involved
B. both diaries and questionnaires were used
C. more advanced technology was used
D. subjects were given more time to record their dreams
4. From the passage, we can learn that________.
A. studies on the color of dreams have been going on for many years
B. the results of the previous studies on dreams couldn't be trusted
C. older people are more likely to be influenced by TV viewing
D. the colors of TV sets are more likely to appear in viewers'dreams
5. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The color of people's dreams changes along with their ages.
B. TV  viewing has  different  influences  on different people.
C. Childhood TV viewing may determine the color of dreams.
D. Childhood TV  viewing  may  influence  a person's later life.

     Madame de Stael says that only the people who can play with children are able to educate them.For
success in training children, the first condition is to become a child oneself.It means to treat the child as
really one's equal, that is, to show him the same consideration, the same kind of confidence one shows to
an adult.It means not to affect the child to be what we ourselves want him to become, but to be affected
by the impression of what the child himself is; not to treat the child with cheating, or by force, but with the
seriousness and true love suitable to his own character.
     Not leaving the child in peace is the greatest problem of present methods of training children.Parents
do not see that during the whole life, the need of peace is never greater than in the years of childhood, an
inner peace under all outside liveliness.
     But what does a child experience?Corrections, orders, interference (干涉), the whole livelong day.
The child is always required to leave something alone, or to do something different, to find something
different, or to want something different from what he does, or finds, or wants.He is always guided in
another direction from the true inner will that is leading him.All of this is caused by our socalled enthusiasm
in directing, advising, and helping the child to become the same model produced in one assembly line (流水线). Understanding, the deepest characteristic of love, is almost always absent.
     To bring up a child means carrying one's soul in one's hand; it means never placing ourselves in
danger of meeting the cold look on the face of the child.It means the truth that the ways of injuring the
child are limitless while the ways of being useful to him are few.How seldom does the educator remember
that the child, even at four or five years of age, has already had a sharp feeling!The smallest mistrust and
unkindness, the least act of injustice, leave wounds that last for life in the heart of the child.While, on the
other hand, unexpected friendliness and kindness make quite as deep an impression on those soft senses.

1. The passage mainly talks about________.

A. misleading zones and right ways in educating children
B. current problems in training children

     Children pushed in buggies which face away from their parents may suffer longterm emotional and
language problems, according to a study published on Friday.
     The research, believed to be the first of its kind, found that children who were not facing the person
pushing them were less likely to talk, laugh and interact with their parents.
     The findings were based on a study of 2,722 parents and babies and an experiment where 20 babies
were wheeled in buggies for a mile, facing their parents for half the journey and facing away for the other
half. Parents using facetoface buggies were twice as likely to talk to their children while the babies' heart
rates fell and they were twice as likely to fall asleep, an indication that they were feeling relaxed and safe.
     In addition, only one baby out of the 20 studied laughed while sitting in an awayfacing buggy.
     "Our data suggests that for many babies today, life in a buggy is emotionally impoverished and
possibly stressful. Stressed babies grow into anxious adults, " said Dr Suzanne Zeedyk, Developmental
Psychologist at Scotland's Dundee University who carried out the research.
     The study, which was published by National Literacy Trust as part of its "Talk To Your Baby"
campaign, found that 62 percent of all children observed travelled in awayfacing buggies.
     Zeedyk said it would impact negatively on babies' development if they spent a long time in awayfacing
buggies, which would undermine their ability to communicate with their parent at a time when their brain
was developing rapidly.
     Laura Barbour of the Sutton Trust, a social mobility charity which funded the research, said buggy
manufacturers should look closely at the findings.
1. Using awayfacing buggies may________.
A. benefit both the babies and their parents
B. affect babies' language ability permanently
C. help babies communicate with their parents
D. have positive effect on babies' development
2. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Parents may talk twice with the babies in awayfacing buggies.
B. The study suggests children feel relaxed and safe in buggies.
C. The samples of the study were 20 babies wheeled in buggies.
D. One of the 20 babies was twice as likely to fall asleep in buggies.
3. The underlined word "impoverished" in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to "________".
A. poor  
B. nervous
C. rich  
D. energetic
4. National Literacy Trust________.
A. has been funding the research for a long time
B. is a social mobility charity funding the research
C. carried out the study of babies pushed in buggies
D. started the campaign named "Talk To Your Baby"
5. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. Best for Kids to Face Parents in Buggy
B. Best for Kids to Communicate with Parents
C. Stressed Babies Grow into Anxious Adults
D. Buggy Manufacturers Care about the Finding

      American teens are setting an example for their parents through their volunteer work, according to
the Harris Interactive poll conducted in the United States between Jan.29 and Feb.2 among 2,003 adults.
The random national telephone survey released this week by the Federal Waybased charity World Vision
found that more teens volunteer to support a charitable (慈善的) cause-56 percent-than have a parttime
job-39 percent.
      Parents and guardians said 82 percent of the teens in their lives do something to support charitable
causes, including volunteering, recruiting others to a cause, wearing a Tshirt or donating money.Fortysix
percent of the adults surveyed said they volunteered their time and they also inspired their children to
volunteer.
Sara Johnson, a teacher who advises students at a private school in a Chicago suburb, says she's seen a
rise of teen involvement in social causes since President Barack Obama was elected in November.
      The Harris Interactive survey found a quarter of teens have become more involved in charitable
causes or organizations as a result of the economic downturn, but the economy has also led to cuts in
allowances, and has teens work more hours at a paying job.
      Alynn Woodson, director of volunteer engagement at Habitat for Humanity International, said she
has noticed a new enthusiasm among teen volunteers for the organization.
      Habitat for Humanity International celebrates the 20th anniversary of its alternative spring break
program this year and is expecting more than 12,000 young people to help build homes for lowincome
people around the nation.

     What exactly are white lions?"They are a color variation of regular lions,"says William
Swanson,director of animal research at the Cincinnati Zoo,in Ohio.
     White lions are the result of a rare color gene mutation(变异).When both a male and
a female lion carry the same white genes,there is a good chance that one or more of their
cubs(幼兽)will be born with white fur.
     Not many lions carry the white mutation.In nature,it's rare.A mutation can make an
animal's survival more difficult.For example,being white makes it harder for the animal to
mix with its surroundings.Mutations also can cause physical problems,so those animals
generally do not survive long enough to reproduce.
     But sometimes white lion cubs are born among wild lions,especially in two areas of
South Africa.
     In 1975 two white cubs were spotted in the wild in South African reserve.They were
seized and sent to a zoo.Today about 500 cubs of those two white lions and a few others
known to have the white color gene live around the world in zoos,circuses,farms and private
preserves.
      White lions may be extremely rare in the wild,but breeders(饲养动物的人)know how
to create more of them.This has created serious concern and debate.
      White lions continue to exist only because they are inbred by people-fathers and
daughters,sisters and brothers.Scientists worry that it also will cause health issues for white
lions.
     Inbreeding to create white lions as moneymaking attractions is only one concern.Another
concern is that some people want to release captive-bred(人工繁殖的)white lions into
the wild in South Africa to restore balance to the ecosystem.However,not everyone agrees
that releasing these white lions into the wild is a good idea.Dan York of Hillsdale College
has been studying white lion genetics and is worried.He says that because so many of today's
white lions are inbred,it could spread health problems.If they breed with wild lions,they'll
pass on the genetic problems to the wild population.
     Instead of releasing captive-bred white lions,York suggests that South Africa concentrate
on protecting all of its wild lions.That would ensure the safety of the wild population of lions,
which may produce healthy white cubs in the future.
