    Anna Schiferl hadn’t even got out of bed when she reached for her cell phone and typed a text to her mom, one recent Saturday. Mon was right downstairs in the kitchen. The text? Anna wanted an egg for breakfast. Soon after, Joanna Schiferl called, “If you want to talk to me, Anna, come downstairs and see me!” Anna laughs about it now. “I was kind of being lazy,” she admits.

    These days, many people with cell phones prefer texting to a phone call. And that’s creating a communication divide, of sorts—the talkers vs. the texters. Some would argue that it’s no big deal. But many experts say the most successful communicators will, of course, have the competence to do both. And they fear that more of us are unable to have—or at least are avoiding—the traditional face–to–face conversations.

    Many professors say it is not common to see students outside of class. “I sit in my office hours lonely now because if my students have a question, they email me, often late at night,” says Renee Houston, a professor at the University of Puget Sound in Washington state. “And they never call.”

    As Anna sees it: “There are people you’ll text, but won’t call. It’s just a way to stay in touch with each other.” Some believe that scores of texts each day keep people more connected. “The problem is that the conversation isn’t very deep,” says Joseph Grenny, co-author of the book Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes are High.

    “The problem has been there since we’ve had telephones—probably since the time of a telegraph,” Grenny says. Texting is just the latest way to do that. Though they may not always be so good at deep conversations themselves, Grenny suggests that parents model the behavior for their children and put down their own cell phones. He says that they also should set limits, as Anna’s mom did when she made the “no texting to people in the same house” rule.

    1.According to Paragraph 1, Joanna .

    A. was very strict with her daughter

    B. did not know how to use a cell phone

    C. was angry that her daughter got up late

    D. did not have any breakfast that morning

    2.The underlined word “competence” in Paragraph 2 probably means “ ”.

    A. chance B. ability C. courage D. patience

    3.In Joseph Grenny’s opinion, .

    A. cell phones make people lonelier

    B. telephones help people communicate clearly

    C. texting helps people have deeper conversations

    D. talking should be encouraged instead of texting

    4.What would be the best title for the text?

    A. Why is communication important?

    B. How does texting affect kids at school?

    C. Is texting ruining the art of conversation?

    D. How can we avoid one-sided conversations?

    Aqeela Asifi, who fled to Pakistan as a young woman, has spent her life teaching other Afghan refugees.

    For her efforts, Ms. Asifi, who is 49, has won the 2015 UNHCR Nansen Refugee Award. She also gets $100,000 to help pay for her education projects. The UNHCR Nansen Refugee Award honors extraordinary service to people who have been forced from their homes. Eleanor Roosevelt, Graca Machel and Luciano Pavarotti are some of the other winners of the award.

    Asifi faced many problems in Afghanistan before she fled to Pakistan. Resources were limited and education for women was discouraged. However, in Pakistan, the 49-year-old was able to bring change to her conservative Afghan community. She persuaded parents to send their daughters to school in a tent at the Kot Chandana refugee village. The village was in the Punjab Province of Pakistan.

    Since then, Ms. Asifi has guided more than a thousand refugee girls through their primary education. “When I began my mission to educate Afghan girls, I could not have imagined that one day it will win me this award. I cannot express my happiness,” she told VOA.

    Ms. Asifi was a teacher in Kabul when she fled with her family in 1992. “In Afghanistan I was teaching both boys and girls,” she told VOA. “When I left Afghanistan and ended up in this refugee village with my family, I was saddened to find out there were no facilities here, particularly for women and girls.” They made their home in the distant refugee community in Kot Chandana. There she began teaching a small number of students in her tent. She made teaching materials by hand.

    Her tent school has led to the opening of several permanent schools in the village. These schools teach more than one thousand children. Support from the UNHCR, local government, and non-governmental organizations helped make these new schools possible.

    Ms. Asifi is a mother of six children. She has worked hard to pay for their education. She spends almost all her income to pay her son’s tuition to study engineering at Kabul University.

    But seeking higher education for her four daughters is difficult. There is not enough money or secondary schools for girls in the village.

    The Afghan teacher hopes more and more children will receive an education in Afghanistan. She hopes her home country becomes better known for higher levels of education, instead of war. “I want my goal to be introduced in parts of Afghanistan where conservative traditions and customs still prevent parents from sending their daughters to outdoor schools,” she said.

    1.According to the passage, Asifi was able to win the 2015 UNHCR Nansen Refugee award mainly because________.

    A. she suffered a lot more than other refugees who fled to Pakistan

    B. she was the kindest person all over the world

    C. she witnessed the cruelest event when she was in Afghanistan

    D. she made great contributions to refugees despite leaving her homeland

    2.Which of the following is TRUE about Asifi’s experiences?

    A. Before she fled to Afghanistan, she had been a teacher in Pakistan.

    B. Asifi succeeded in changing attitudes of Afghan refugees toward girl education.

    C. Asifi determined to win the award when she began to educate Afghan girls.

    D. All the materials needed for teaching were borrowed.

    3.What can be inferred from the passage?

    A. Resources were unlimited and education for women was encouraged before Asifi fled to Pakistan.

    B. Eleanor Roosevelt, Graca Machel and Luciano Pavarotti all fled to other countries from Afghanistan.

    C. Asifi’s daughters can enjoy equal opportunities like their brothers to receive higher education at university.

    D. Asifi still treats her own country with great affection though living as a refugee in another country.

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

    New research shows that kids from low-income families may be falling behind their peers because an important part of their brains is underdeveloped.

    Researchers from MIT’ s McGovern Institute for Brain Research compared the brains of 12-and 13-year-olds from rich families with the brains of their peers from lower-income families. They found that one particular area of the brain—the neocortex(新皮质),which plays a key role in memory and learning ability—is thinner in children from lower-income households.

    This is a crucial part of the brain for young students, who are often tested based on their ability to recall large chunks of information. Children who had a thinner neocortex performed poorly on standardized tests,researchers found.More than 90% of high-income students scored above average on a statewide math and English/Language Arts standardized test,compared with less than 60% of low-income students.Differences in cortical(脑皮层) thickness could account for almost half of the income-achievement gap in this sample,researchers wrote.

    “Just as you would expect, there’ s a real cost not living in a supportive environment. We can see it not only in test scores,in educational attainment,but within the brains of these children,”says psychological scientist John Gabrieli,a professor of brain and cognitive sciences at MIT and one of the study’s authors.

    Since a 2011 study published by Stanford University professor Sean Reardon found that the gap between standardized test scores of high-income and low-income students has grown by about 40% since the 1960s,there’ s been a lot of research aimed at finding links between income and achievement, rather than race alone. The MIT study found low-income children were equally likely to have a thinner neocortex,no matter their races.

    Gabrieli and his co-authors can’ t say exactly why poor children’ s brains develop differently because there are too many possibilities to count.Their findings do,however,underline the importance of early intervention(干预) to ensure that low-income kids get the tools they need to succeed.

    1.What’ s the function of the first paragraph?

    A. To list some findings.

    B. To give some advice.

    C. To do some comparisons.

    D. To show the main idea of the text.

    2.What does the underlined word “crucial” in Paragraph 3 mean?

    A. Special. B. Important.

    C. Separate. D. Unknown.

    3.What John Gabrieli says in Paragraph 4 mainly shows the importance of 　　　.

    A. cognitive ability

    B. educational attainment

    C. having developed brains

    D. living in supportive surroundings

    4.What is the main idea of the passage?

    A.Wealthy parents do better in raising children.

    B.Differences exist between poor children and rich ones.

    C.Poor children study harder due to their financial conditions.

    D.Poor children have thinner neocortex than their wealthy peers.
