    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    I feel it enormous responsibility, as a mother of two little girls, to lead you down a path that is relatively healthy when it comes to beauty and self-image.

    ????????????? In a lot of women’s eyes I’ve probably already failed in that respect due to the amount of pink princess Barbie (芭比娃娃) mess cluttering up (堆满) Vera’s room. But I will say something about Barbie: I played with that stuff for a solid decade when I was growing up and here I am now at a healthy weight with a healthy outlook on my body and image. I have a successful career. If Barbie was really so damaging to my femininity (女性气质) and self-image I highly doubt I could list all of the accomplishments.

    But I get it too. It’s hard for women to maintain a healthy self-image. I have girlfriends around whom I have to brace myself to see, because just being around them makes me self-conscious. I look at old pictures of my mother and wonder why I’ve never been able to be as skinny as she was. And then I have friends who are thinner than their mothers ever were. We women go round and round in circles, holding hands and trying to be one another sometimes. Men like to think we dress and style ourselves for them, but why would we when they hardly notice? I’ve never tried so hard to look good when I know I’m about to meet up with a stylish girlfriend. It’s she who will notice my slimmed-down waist or the thinnest, little bracelet on my arm.

    And I have no doubt that the two of you, Veronica and Juliette, will endlessly compare yourselves to each other. You will wonder why one of you got longer legs or shinier hair. The thing I’ll tell you is this: not even the prettiest of us feel settled. The girl you think looks the most perfect in the world is probably the girl who wants to change herself more than anyone else.

    Don’t take these on. You are not worthless. You are so full of love and light and you should let it shine through your every second. If someone pushes you down for standing tall then just push yourself back up and stand even taller. And know that the reason they push you down in the first place is just because they’re scared.

    1.From the second paragraph, we can infer that the author _____.

    A. regrets buying so much Barbie stuff for her daughters

    B. thinks loving Barbie makes her not confident about her self-image

    C. owes her beauty and success to playing with Barbie

    D. thinks playing with Barbie caused no damage to her beauty and success

    2.In the third paragraph, the author intends to show that _____.

    A. women tend to be proud of their beautiful friends

    B. she cares much about her appearance

    C. she feels proud of her mother’s beauty

    D. women tend to admire others and compare with each other

    3.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

    A. The author is disappointed that few men take notice of her slim figure.

    B. The author cares more about looking good before her girlfriends.

    C. Girls should constantly compare themselves with others to improve their beauty.

    D. Only the prettiest girl can feel confident about her beauty.

    4.The author advises her daughters that _____.

    A. they should be cautious not to be pushed down by others

    B. they should care much about their strong points instead of appearances

    C. they should try to grow taller than others

    D. they should care more about others’ opinions

    　　Shay asked, “Do you think they’ll let me play?” Shay’s father knew that most of the boys would not want someone like Shay on their team, but the father also understood that if his son, mentally and physically disabled, were allowed to play, it would give him a much-needed sense of belonging and some confidence．

    　　Shay’s father approached one of the boys on the field and asked if Shay could play, not expecting much．The boy looked around and said, “We’re losing by six runs(分)and the game is in the eighth inning(局)．I guess he can be on our team and we’ll try to put him in to bat in the final inning．

    　　Shay struggled over to the team’s bench and put on a team shirt with a broad smile and his father had a small tear in his eye and warmth in heart．The boys saw the father’s joy at his son being accepted．

    　　In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay’s team scored a few runs but was still behind by three．In the top of the final inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the field．Even though no hits came his way, he was obviously joyful just to be in the game and on the field．In the bottom of the final inning, Shay’s team scored again．Now, Shay was scheduled to be next at bat．Would they let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game?

    　　Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat．Everyone knew that a hit was almost impossible．The first pitch(投)came and Shay missed．The pitcher again again took a few steps forward to throw the ball softly towards Shay．As the pitch came in, Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher．

    　　The pitcher could have easily thrown he ball to the first baseman and Shay would have been out and that would have been the end of the game．Instead, the pitcher threw the ball right over the head of　the first baseman, beyond the reach of all teammates, The audience and the players from both teams started screaming, “Shay, run to first! ”Never in his life had Shay ever run that far but made it to first base, wide-eyed and shocked．

    　　Everyone should, “Run to second!” Catching his breath, Shay awkwardly ran towards second．By the time Shay rounded towards second base, the smallest guy on their team, who had a chance to be the hero for his team fir the first time, could have thrown the ball to the second baseman, but he understood the pitcher’s intentions and he too　intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third baseman’s head．

    　　All were screaming, “Shay, Shay, Shay, all the way Shay．” Shay reached third base when one opposing player ran to help him and shouted, “Shay, run to third．” As Shay rounded third, all were on their feet, crying, “Shay, run home!” Shay ran to home, stepped on the home base and was cheered as the hero who the who won the game for his team．

    　　That day, the boys from both teams helped bring a piece true love and humanity into this world．Shay didn’t make it to another summer and died that winter, having never forgotten being the hero and making his father so happy and coming home and seeing his mother tearfully hug her little hero of the day!

    Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; there's no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your children's curiosity. Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. The children asked me "textbook questions" about schooling, salary and whether I liked my job. When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence. Finally I said, "Now that we've finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?"
        After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, "Have you ever seen a grasshopper eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?"
        This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours.
        Secondly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after asking a question, adults usually wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their "wait time" to three seconds or more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers.
        Thirdly, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, don't jump in with "That's right" or "Very good". These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying, "That's interesting" or "I'd never thought of it that way before", or coming up with more questions or ideas.
        Never push a child to "Think". It doesn't make sense, for children are always thinking, without your telling them to. What's more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a smaller target (对象) for your disagreement.
        Lastly, show; don't tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜), and they'll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates, set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.


    51. To raise children's interest, the most important thing for adults to do is _______.
    A. to let them see the world around                                         B. to share the children's curiosity
    C. to explain difficult phrases about science                             D. to supply the children with lab equipment
    52. Children can answer questions in a more logical, complete and creative way if adults _____.
    A. ask them to answer quickly B. wait for one or two seconds after a question
    C. tell them to answer the next day D. wait at least for three seconds after a question
    53. In which paragraph(s) does the author tell us what to say to encourage children in a science discussion?
    A. The second and third               B. The fourth and fifth
    C. The fifth and sixth                  D. The seventh
    54. The author mentions all of the following techniques except that adults should _____.
    A. tell their children stories instead of reciting facts
    B. offer their children chances to see things for themselves
    C. be patient enough when their children answer questions
    D. encourage their children to ask questions of their own
