3.The summer I was ten,my mother decided to bring us to the world of art.My brother and I were not very excited when we realized what my mother meant.What she meant was not that we could take draw ing classes or painting classes but that we would have to spend one afternoon a week with her at the Fine Arts Museum.Before each visit to the museum,she made us read about artists and painting styles.It was almost as bad as being in school.Who wants to spend the summer thinking about artists when you could be with your friends at the swimming pool?
First,we had to read about ancient Egyptians and their strange way of painting faces and then go to look at them at the museum.My 12-year-old brother thought this was so funny,but I was not interested.Later we had to learn about artists in the Middle Age s who painted people wearing strange long clothing.We had to look at pictures of fat babies with wings and curly hair and with no clothes on flying around the edges of paintings.I certainly couldn't see what was so great about art.
On our last visit to the museum,something happened when I saw a painting by a woman called Mary.In it,a woman was reading to a child.The colors were soft and gentle,and you could tell by the mother's expression how happy she was just to be with the child.I couldn't stop looking at this painting!I wanted to see every painting Mary had ever made!It was really worth looking at so many paintings to find a painter who could interest me so much.
28.The aim of the mother's plan was toA.
A.introduce them to the world of art           
B.take them only to visit the museum
C.ask them to read about artists

7.Recently,a scientist did some experiments.He left a group of 4-year-olds in a room with a bell and a candy.If they rang the bell,he would come back and they could eat the candy.If,however,they didn't ring the bell and waited for him to come back on his own,they could then have two candies.
In videos of the experiment,he can see the children kicking,hiding their eyes--trying to exercise self-control so they can wait and get two candies.The results are different.Some broke down and rang the bell within a minute.Others lasted 15minutes.
The children who waited longer went on to get higher SAT scores.They got into better colleges and had better adult success.The children who rang the bell quickest were more likely to have received worse teacher and parental evaluations 10years later and were more likely to have drug problems at age 32.
The experiments are worth noting because people spend a lot of time thinking about how to improve education,how to become rich.But when the result is not good,they will come back to ask"how do we get people to get the sort of self-control that leads to success?"This is to enter the world of human nature.
So these experiments along with everyday experience,tell us that self-control is most important.Young people who can sit through sometimes boring classes to get a degree can work hard in order to learn a language well.They can avoid drugs and alcohol.For people without self-control skills,however,school is a series of failed ordeals(煎熬).No wonder they drop out and their later life is a group of foolish ideas,such as drug use,stealing and so on.

33.The scientist did some experiments toA.
A.test children's self control and later success
B.test children's intelligence of ringing the bell
C.find good ways of training children to learn
D.prove that children's education is important
34.How long did the scientist's experiments last according to the text?D
A.Just 15minutes.   B.Within 10years.
C.Less than 14years.            D.More than 28years.
35.What is the best title for this passage?D
A.Ways of self-control training
B.Experiments on children's ringing the bell
C.Higher score,better achievements
D.Self-control is the key to success.
