3．Bruno Geyer，the owner of a flower shop from the village of Rougemont Le Chateau，France，has been decorating his flower shop with water cans（浇水罐）for the last 15 years．He currently has around 800 of them hanging from the walls and roof of his shop，and even covering a nearby hillside．
The shop is very unique．If the colorful flowers and climbing plants outside don't give it away，the hundreds of hanging water cans obviously will．They are everywhere and make the place look like it came out of a fairy book．And with new additions being installed（安装）every few days，you could say it's a work in progress．
It all started 15 years ago，when Bruno's sister gave him a water can as a Christmas present．It got him thinking about the importance of water as a life source for plants，and the water can seemed like the perfect symbol of that．He bought himself another one，then another．He would buy them wherever he could find them．And as word of his growing water can collection spread around the village，neighbors started bringing him their old water cans as well．
Soon the walls and roof of Bruno's flower shop were covered with water cans，not to mention the ones placed on display inside，but he wasn't going to let lack of space bar him from expanding his collection．The small hill next to his garden provided all the extra display space he needed，and today it is also decorated with hundreds of dangling （悬挂的）water cans．
But to Bruno Geyer，it's not just about gathering as many water cans as he can．The process of setting them on display is also important to him．He will often grab his ladder and place them in several locations around his house until he is satisfied with the way they look．

11．Kids will often ignore your requests for them to shut off the TV，start their chores（杂事），or do their homework as a way to avoid following your directions．Before you know it，you've started to sound like a broken recorder as you repeatedly ask them to do their assignments，clean their room，or take out the rubbish．
Rather than saying"Do your chores now，"you'll be more effective if you set a target time for when the chores have to be completed．So instead of arguing about starting chores，just say，"If chores aren't done by 4pm，here are the consequences．"Then it's up to your child to complete the chores．Put the ball back in their court．Don't argue or fight with them．Just say，"That's the way it's going to be．"It shouldn't be punitive（惩罚性的） as much as it should be persuasive．"If your chores aren't done by 4pm，then no video game time until chores are done．And if finishing those chores runs into homework time，that's going to be your loss．"
On the other hand，when dealing with homework，keep it very simple．Have a time when homework starts，and at that time，all electronics go off and do not go back on until you see that their homework is done．If your kids say they have no homework，then they should use that time to study or read．Either way，there should be a time set aside when the electronics are off．
When a kid wears his iPod or headphones when you're trying to talk to him，make no bones about it； he is not ignoring you，he is disrespecting you．At that point，everything else should stop until he takes the earplugs out of his ears．Don't try to communicate with him when he's wearing headphones-even if he tells you he can hear you．Wearing them while you're talking to him is a sign of disrespect．Parents should be very tough about this kind of thing．Remember，mutual respect becomes more important as children mature．

28．What seldom happens according to the passage？C
A．Kids turn a deaf ear to their parents'requests．
B．Parents'directions sound like a broken record．
C．Children are ready to follow their parents'directions．
D．Parents are unaware of what they are repeating to their kids．
29．How will parents be able to deal with their children more effectively？A
A．By avoiding direct ways of punishment．
B．By making them do things at their request．
C．By arguing and fighting with their children．
D．By allowing their children to behave in their own way．
30．What are parents expected to do when the kid is doing the homework？D
A．To switch off the power．
B．To stay aside watching TV．
C．To do whatever they are fond of．
D．To provide him with a good learning environment．
31．What is the main idea of this passage？C
A．Kids ignore and disrespect their parents now and then．
B．Children should make choices and decisions on their own．
C．Parents can deal with their kids'behavior more effectively．
D．Respecting each other is more important than anything else．

18．New research，attempting to throw light upon how male and female brains differ，has found that timing is everything．American Vanderbilt University researchers Stephen Camarata and Richard Woodcock discovered that females have a significant advantage over males in timed tests and tasks．The study involved more than 8，000 males and females ranging in age from 2 to 90 from across the US．
"We found hardly any differences in overall intelligence．But we discovered that females performed better than men in time limited situations，"Camarata said，"It is very important for teachers to understand this difference in males and females when it comes to assigning work and tests．"
Many males can do a better job without strict time limits，added Camarata．
"Consider that many classroom activities，including testing，are directly or indirectly related to processing speed，"the researchers wrote in their report．"The higher performance in females may contribute to a classroom culture that favors females，not because of teacher bias （偏见）but because of inherent （与生倶来的）differences in gender processing speeds．"
The researchers found that males scored lower than females in all age groups in tests measuring processing speed．However，the study also found that males consistently outperformed females in some language abilities，such as identifying objects and knowing antonyms （反义词）and synonyms （同义词）．The research contradicts the popular belief that girls develop all communication skills earlier than boys．
The researchers found no significant overall intelligence differences between males and females in any age groups．
"We believe there are fundamental differences in how male and female brains end up getting organized，"Camarata said，"Our next studies will give us some insight into where these processing differences are occurring．"

46．The new research referred to in the passage is intended toC．
A．find whether age has something to do with people's intelligence
B．help teachers to assign work and arrange tests for students
C．find what's the differences between male and female brains
D．prove the differences in processing speed between males and females
47．The underlined word"outperformed"in the fifth paragraph probably means"A"．
A．to achieve better results than someone
B．to perform worse in some aspect than someone
C．to do something as well as someone
D．to be not so good at something as someone
48．People usually believe thatC．
A．there're hardly any differences between males'and females'overall intelligence
B．teachers favor girl students instead of boy students in schools
C．girls develop their language skills earlier than boys
D．females have a significant advantage over males in all subjects
49．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage？D
A．The researchers interviewed more than 8，000 males and females all over the world．
B．Generally speaking，males can do better jobs with strict time limits than females．
C．Females scored higher than males in any age groups in any situations．
D．The differences in gender processing speeds occur when people are born．
50．Which of the following can be inferred from the passage？A
A．The researchers will continue to study how the gender differences in timing occur．
B．A female mathematician will make greater achievements than a male one．
C．School teachers have already known about these processing differences before．
D．If a girl has a higher processing speed than a boy，she must be more intelligent than him．
