18.(第一、二层次学校的学生做此题)
When it comes to friends,I desire those who will share my happiness,who have wings of their own and who will fly with me.I seek friends whose qualities have a good influent on me and train me up for love.It is for these people that I reserve the good old days,too good not to share.
When I was in the eighth grade,I had a friend.We were shy and"too serious"about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors.We said little at school,but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper,and one of us would say:"Let's start with a train whistle (鸣笛) today."We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle.Then we would read them aloud.At the end of that school year,we were too busy and poems stopped.
When I lived for a time in London,I had a friend,who was in sadness and so was I.But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not visit much of this great city because we had felt bad at the time.We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things.We walked until our sadness disappeared and then we said goodbye. We gave London to each other.
For almost four years I have had good friends whose imagination lightens mine.We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves.Each of us appears,sometimes in a funny way,in the other's dreams.She and I agree that,at certain times,we seem to be parts of the same mind.In my most interesting moments,I often think:"Yes,I must tell…."We have never met.
It is such comforting friends I wish to make.One bright hour with me is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist(心理学家),who will only fill up the healing(愈合的)silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.

68.In the eighth grade,before getting too busy the authorD.
A.became serious about her study              B.went to her friend's house regularly
C.learned from her classmates at school       D.shared poems and stories with her friend
69.In paragraph3,"We gave London to each other"probably meansA.
A.our visit in London was a memorable gift to both of us

15.In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition.Some hold an optimistic attitude.They value it highly,believing that it is a natural outcome of social progress and prosperity(繁荣)and that anyone who wants to be outstanding has to keep the pace.Others think otherwise.They say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that the unfriendly relationship between people because of competition.
I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth depended on how well they performed at tennis and other skills.For them,playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs.In their single-minded pursuit(追求)of success,the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.
However,while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed,others have an opposite opinion.In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players,they strongly blame competition.Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society.They have no choice.Teaching these young people,I often observe in them a desire to fail.They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success.By not trying,they always have an excuse:"I may have lost,but it doesn't matter because I really didn't try".What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost,that would mean a lot.Such a loss would be a measure of their worth.Clearly,this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves.Both are based on the mistaken belief that one's self-respect relies on how well one performs compared with others.Both are afraid of not being valued.Only as this basic and often troublesome fear is overcome can discover a new meaning in competition.
71.What does this passage mainly talk about?B
A.Competition helps to set up self-respect.
B.Opinions about competition are different among people.
C.Competition is harmful to personal quality development.
D.Failures are necessary experience in competition.
72.Why do some people favor competition according to the passage?A
A.It pushes society forward
B.It builds up a sense of duty.
C.It improves personal abilities
D.It encourages individual efforts.
73.The underlined phrase"the most vocal"in Paragraph 3 meansC.
A.those who try their best to win
B.those who value competition most highly
C.those who are against competition most strongly
D.those who rely on others most for success
74.What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a"desire to fail"?A
A.One's worth lies in his performance compared with others.
B.One's success in competition needs great efforts.
C.One's achievement is determined by his particular skills.
D.One's success is based on how hard he has tried.
75.Which point of view may the author agree to?D
A.Every effort should be paid back.
B.Competition should be encouraged.
C.Winning should be a life-and-death matter.
D.Fear of failure should be removed in competition.

2.It's time to do something for your father-the man who for many people has been an encouragement and support since birth.The third Sunday of June is Father's Day.The holiday honors not only fathers,but also all men who act as father figures,such as stepfathers,uncles and grandfathers.
The idea of Father's Day came from the love and appreciation of American lady called Sonore Smart Dodd in 1909.Dodd wanted a special day to honor her father,William Smart.Heraised six children by himself on a countryside farm in Washington State after his wife died during the birth of their sixth child.When Dodd became an adult,she realized the selflessness her father has shown in raising his children as a single parent.It was her father who did all for his children.In the eyes of his daughter,William Smart was a courageous,selfless and loving man.Dodd's father was born in June,so she chose to hold the first Father's Day celebration in Washington on June 19th,1910.

12.Two recent studies have found that punishment is not the best way to influence behavior.
    One showed that adults are much more cooperative if they work in a system based on rewards.Researchers at Harvard University in the United States did the study.They had about 200 college students play a game known as the Prisoner's Dilemma.The game is based on the tension between the interests of an individual and a group.
The students played in groups of four.Each player could win points for the group,so they would all gain equally.But each player could also reward or punish each of the other three players,at a cost to the punisher.
Harvard researcher David Rand says the most successful behavior proved to be cooperation.The groups that rewarded it the most earned about twice as much in the game as the groups that rewarded it the least.
And the more a group punished itself,the lower its earnings.The group with the most punishment earned 25% less than the group with the least punishment.
The other study involved children.Researchers used intelligence tests given to two groups.More than 800 children were ages two to four the first time they were tested.More than 700 children were ages five to nine.
The two groups were retested four years later,and the study compared the results with the first test.Both groups contained children whose parents used physical punishment and children whose parents did not.
The study says the IQs-or intelligence quotients-of the younger children who were not spanked(掴)were five points higher than those who were.In the older group,the difference was almost three points.
Murray Strauss from the University of New Hampshire has written extensively about physical punishment of children.He says the more they are spanked,the slower their mental development.He also looked at average IQs in other nations and found them lower where spanking was more common.
67.Which of the following is True about the game mentioned in the first paragraph?C
A.Prisoners are more interested in the first game than the university students.
B.The game is very popular with the students in Harvard University in the United States.
C.The game is played to test whether people are more cooperative on the basis of rewards.
D.The game is played in order to encourage the students to cooperate.
68.The underlined part in the third paragraph means the punisher will have toB.
A.lose some of his money              
B.lose some of the points
C.lose all the points of the group         
D.gain the points of the punished
69.What does the result of the first experiment imply?A
A.Rewards encourage better cooperation than punishments.
B.Individual interests are always a challenge to the group.
C.Four members will work better in one group.
D.The group that punished most gained nothing eventually.
70.What do we know about the second experiment in the passage?A
A.The whole experiment,including two tests,lasted four years.
B.Physical punishment was employed only in the younger group.
C.Children in both groups have acquired same IQ development.
D.No physical punishment was used in the younger group.

16.Feeling left out?
A reader wrote in to say that she was feeling lonely at break because her best friend wasn't around.Here's our advice to her-and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes.
It's hard when a best friend isn't around-maybe because she moved to a different school or a different class.You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime.You want to have new friends.But how do you make them?Maybe it seems like everybody else already has their friends.But remember,there's always room for more friends.
Start by looking around your classroom-think about which kids you'd like to play with at break.Look for chances to say hi to them,smile,and be friendly.Offer to share something or express your appreciation (欣赏) to them.Invite someone to play with you or say"Do you want to sit here?"in the lunchroom.When you're at break,walk over to kids you want to play with,act friendly,and say"Hi,can I play,too?"or just join in.
If you have trouble doing  this,or if you're feeling shy,ask your teacher to help you make new friends.Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends.The best way to make friends is to be a friend.Be kind,be friendly,share,say nice things,offer to help-and pretty soon,you'll have one,or two,or even more new friends.
You might still miss that special best friend.But when you see each other,you can share something you didn't have before she left:You can introduce her to your new friends!

17.In normal conditions,bread will go mouldy(霉)in around 10 days.But an American company says it has developed a technique that will keep the bread mould free for two months.
At the laboratory or Texas Tech University,chief executive Don Stull showed off the long,metallic microwave device.Originally designed to kill some bacteria,the researchers discovered it could kill the mould spores(霉孢)in bread in 10 seconds."We treated a slice of bread in the device,we then checked the mould in the bread over time,"he explained."And at 60 days it had the same mould content as it had when it came out."
The machine uses much the same technology as found in commercial microwaves-but with some important differences,according to Mr.Stull."We introduce the microwave frequencies in different ways,through a radiator.We don't get the hot and cold spots you get in your home microwave."
The device has attracted plenty of bread manufacturers-but it is worried that it could push up costs in an industry.And there is also a concern that consumers might not take to bread that lasts for so long.
Mr.Stull acknowledges it might be difficult to convince some people of the benefits."We'll have to get some consumer acceptance of that,"he said."Most people do it by feel,and if you still have that quality feel,they will probably accept it."
Mr.Stull believes that the technology could affect bread in other ways.He said that bread manufacturers added lots of additives(添加剂)to fight mould.As a result,they must add extra chemicals to mask the taste of them.If bakers were able to use the microwave technology,they would be able to avoid these additives.While a wholesale change in the bread industry might be difficult to achieve,there may be more potential with other foods.
71.The microwave device was originally designed toB.
A.make bread tasty            
B.kill some bacteria
C.kill the mould spores           
D.check mould in bread
72.What do the metallic device and commercial microwaves have in common?C
A.they both can kill mould spores
B.They both function through a radiator.
C.They both use microwave technology
D.They both can be used as a bread bakery.
73.According to Mr.Stull,the microwave technologyC.
A.may push up costs in the bread industry
B.will keep the bread more tasty after 60 days
C.can help bakers to avoid adding additives
D.might probably bring no benefits to consumers
74.What does the underlined word"them"refer to?B
A.Chemicals.B.Additives.C.Manufacturers.D.Foods.
75.It can be inferred from the text thatD.
A.bread made with the technology will have different taste
B.bread industry will pay no attention to the technology
C.the technology is as harmful as the additives
D.the technology is likely to be used more widely.
