Children who are spanked (挨打) have lower IQs worldwide, including in the United States. All parents want smart children. Avoiding spanking and correcting misbehavior in other ways can help that happen.
A new research by Professor Murray Straus found that children in the United States who were spanked had lower IQs four years later than those who weren’t spanked. Straus and Mallie Paschall, a senior research scientist, studied nationally examples of 806 children aged 2 to 4, and 704 aged 5 to 9. Both groups were retested four years later.
The IQs of children IQs aged 2 to 4 who weren’t spanked were 5 points higher four year later than the IQs of those who were spanked. The IQs of children aged 5 to 9 who weren’t spanked were 2.8 points higher four years later than the IQs of children at the same age who were spanked. How often parents spanked made a difference. The more spanking, the slower the development of children’s mental ability. But even small amounts of spanking made a difference.
Straus also found a lower national average IQ in nations in which spanking was more popular. His analysis shows the strongest link between physical punishment and IQ is for those whose parents continue to use physical punishment even when they are teenagers.
Straus also found a lower national average IQ in nations in which spanking was more popular. His analysis shows the strongest link between physical punishment and IQ is for those whose parents continue to use physical punishment even when they are teenagers.
Straus and colleagues in 32 nations used data on physical punishment experienced by 17,404 university students when they were children. According to Straus, there’re two explanations for the relation of physical punishment to lower IQ.
First, physical punishment is extremely stressful and can become a long-lasting stressor for young children, who typically experience punishment three or more times a week. For many it continues for years. The stress of physical punishment often leads to being fearful that terrible things are about to happen and being easily shocked. They’re associated with lower IQ. Second, a higher national level of economic development leads to both fewer parents using physical punishment and a higher national IQ.
The good news is that the use of physical punishment has been decreasing worldwide, which may signal future gains in IQ across the globe. The United Nations has called on all member nations to forbid physical punishment by parents. Nevertheless, there’s evidence that attitude favoring physical punishment and actual use of physical punishment have been declining even in nations which haven’t forbidden physical punishment.
1. From the passage we can know that physical punishment will make______.
A. no scientist
B. a well-behaved child
C. a bad parent-child relationship
D. a child feel nervous continuously
2.It can be concluded from Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4 that______.
A. long-term spanking will cause children’s mental disorder.
B. low national average IQ limits the mental development of children
C. young children have more chances to suffer from physical punishment.
D. high frequency of spanking results in slow development of children’s intelligence
3. According to Straus’s research, children’s being spanked is probably related to parents’______.
A. low income
B. little education
C. long-lasting pressure
D. passive personalities
4. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that______.
A. the improvement of global average IQ is out of the question
B. physical punishment becomes less popular in the world
C. most countries have realized the negative consequence of punishing in its member nations.
D. the UN has succeeded in banning physical punishment in its member nations

The Attack on September 11th
New York: When the first jet struck Tower 1 at World Trade Center at 8: 48 am on Tuesday, the people in Tower 2 at World Trade Center with a view of the instant damage across the divide had the clearest sense of what they too must do : get out fast.
Katherine Ilachinski, who had been knocked off her chair by the blast of heat exploding from the neighboring tower, was one of those. Despite her 70 years of age, Ms Ilachinski, an architect working on the 91st floor of Tower 2 at World Trade Center, the south tower, went for the stairs. Twelve floors above her, Judy Wein, a manager, screamed and set off too.
But others up and down the 110 floors, many without clear views of the damage across the way and thus unclear about what was happening, were not so sure. And the 18 minutes before the next plane would hit were ticking off.
Among the uncertainty about what was the best thing to do, formal announcements inside the south tower instructed people to stay put, assuring them that the building was sound and the threat was limited to the other tower.
Some left, others stayed, some began to climb down and, when met with more announcements and other warning to stop or return, went back up. The decisions made in those instants proved to be of great importance, because many who chose to stay, were doomed (注定) when the second jet crashed into the south tower killing many and stranding (使…某物留在) many more in the floors above where the jet hit.
One of those caught in indecision(犹豫不决) was the manager at Fuji Bank USA. Richard Jacobs of Fuji Bank left the 79th floor with the other office workers, but on the 48th floor they heard the announcement that the situation was under control. Several got in the lifts and went back up two minutes or so before the plane crashed into their floor.
1.From the passage , we know that the south tower was hit by the plane __________
A. at 8: 30
B. 18 minutes earlier than the north tower
C. at around 9: 06
D. at 8: 48
2.The underlined words “stay put” mean _________
A. stay in the building B. leave at once
C. put everything back and then leave D. keep silent
3.Which floor was hit by the second jet?
A. The 91st floor. B. The 71st floor.
C. The 60th floor. D. The 79th floor.
4.Few people would have died if __________
A. more announcements had been made
B. people hadn’t used the lifts
C. the incident had happened on a weekend
D. people chose to stay

I am a sophomore (大二学生) at Princeton University, where I am majoring in chemical engineering. I chose to study at UCD in the spring of 2015 primarily because I have always been interested in Ireland and Irish culture, but also to take advantage of UCD’s courses in pharmacology (药理学), a field not offered at my home school. I also chose UCD because of its Introduction to Scientific Research module, which matches visiting students with professors for a term-long research project, and because of the Science office’s friendliness and helpfulness. I am convinced that I made the best possible decision!
While at UCD I lived on campus, which allowed me to throw myself into everything the university has to offer. I was given the opportunity to work with Geraldine Butler’s lab. I loved it so much that I ended up heading to the lab almost every weekday, whenever I wasn’t attending my always-interesting classes in pharmacology. After lab, I enjoyed a variety of after-school activities—that was certainly a new experience for me.
Living in Dublin provided a great opportunity for seeing the rest of Ireland and Europe. I spent my weekends and spring break traveling to every corner of the island, amazed at all of the history and natural beauty. I was also able to visit the UK, the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and Sweden. After every trip, it was nice to return to friendly Dublin and head out with my roommates to one of our favorite pubs.
I would highly recommend studying abroad at UCD. I learned so much from my courses and my research project and had a wonderful time exploring Ireland. I can’t wait to come back!
1. Where is the author when he is writing the passage?
A. At Princeton University. B. At UCD.

B. There was a chance for him to change his major.
C. It offered visiting students a guided research project.
D. The staff in the Science office were friendly and helpful.
3. What does the author feel at the moment?
A. Excited. B. Upset.
C. Worried. D. Tired.
4.What probably can be the best title of the passage?

Communities in Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Thailand, India, Malaysia and East Africa have been by the huge waves. Whole towns were simply swept aside by the power of the water. Cars, trains and buildings could not , let alone the people who stood .
The earthquake 9.0 on the Richter scale(里氏震级) and occurred the coast of Indonesia. It was as the fifth strongest since 1900. Scientists said the quake was as as a million of the atomic bombs that were onto Japan during World War Ⅱ. It may be the worst natural disaster in recent history it is affecting so many heavily populated coastal areas.
Because such waves happen in the Indian Ocean, there is no system in place to coastal communities they are about to be hit.
Tsunami is Japanese for “harbor wave”. They are usually caused by a sudden or fall of part of the Earth’s crust(地壳) under the ocean. Tsunamis often happen in oceans and they are most in the Pacific.
Tsunamis can be very long—as much as 100 kilometers—and be as far as one hour apart. They are able to entire oceans without losing much energy. One of the most striking about tsunamis is that an earthquake on one side of the Pacific Ocean can cause giant waves and destruction on the other side. When the ocean is deep, tsunamis can travel unnoticed speeds of up to 800 kilometers per hour.
The wave may only be a few meters high in the ocean. when it is near the shore and reaches shallow (浅) water, the wave very quickly in height. Witnesses(目击者) in some areas of Indonesia reported seeing up to 10-metre high waves crash into the shore.
Tsunamis travel in all directions from the center of an earthquake and attack coastlines. They can easily suck people out to sea, cause flooding and destroy property.
