    If parents bring up a child with the aim of turning the child into a genius（天才）, they will cause great damage to him. According to several leading educational experts, this is one of the biggest mistakes that some parents make. Generally, the child will understand very well what the parents expect, and will fall. Unrealistic expectations of the parents can cause great damage to children.
    However, if parents are realistic about what they expect their children to do, and are hopeful in a sensible（明智的） way, the child may succeed -especially if the parents are very supportive to their children.
    Michael Li is very lucky. He is very fond of music and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and let him attend piano and violin lessons. Although his father is a good musician, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling to.
    Michael’s friend, Winston Chen, however, is not so lucky. Both his parents are successful musicians, and they set too high a goal for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are and so they enter him for every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win. “When I was your age, I used to win every competition I entered.” Winston’s father tells him. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he is always quiet and unhappy.

    I'm writing this letter slowly because I know you can't read fast. We don't live where we did when you left home. Your dad read in the newspaper that most accidents happened within 20 miles from our home, so we moved.
    I won't be able to send you the address because the last family that lived here took the house numbers when they moved so that they wouldn't have to change their address. This place is really nice. It even has a washing machine. I'm not sure it works so well though: last week I put a load in and pulled the chain (拉链) and haven't seen them since. The weather isn't bad here. It only rained twice last week; the first time for three days and the second time for four days. About that coat you wanted me to send you, your uncle Stanley said it would be too heavy to send in the mail with the buttons on so we cut them off and put them in the pockets.
    John locked his keys in the car yesterday. We were really worried because it took him two hours to get me and your father out. Your sister had a baby this morning, but I haven't found out what it is yet. The baby looks just like your brother.
    Uncle Ted fell in a whiskey vat（桶）last week. Some men tried to pull him out, but he fought them off playfully and drowned. We had him cremated（焚化）and he burned for three days.
    Three of your friends went off a bridge in a pick-up trunk. Ralph was driving. He rolled down the window and swam to safety. You other two friends were in back. They drowned because they couldn't get the tail gate down.
    There isn't much more news at this time. Nothing much has happened.
    Love,
    Mom
    P.S. I was going to send you some money but the envelope was already sealed.

    In 1961, scientist set up gigantic, sensitive instruments to collect radio waves from the far reaches of space, hoping to discover in them some mathematical pattern indicating that the waves were sent out by other intelligent beings. The first attempt failed, but someday the experiment may succeed.
    What reason is there to think that we may actually detect intelligent life in outer space？To begin with, modern theories of the development of stars suggest that almost every star has some sort of family of planets. So any star like our own sun （and there are billions of such stars in the universe） is likely to have a planet situated at such a distance that it would receive about the same amount of radiation as the earth.
    Furthermore, such a planet would probably have the same general composition as our planet; so, allowing a billion years or two or three, there would be a very good chance for life to develop, if current theories of the origin of life are correct.
    But intelligent life？Life that has reached the stage of being able to send radio waves out into space in a deliberate pattern？Our own planet may have been in existence for five billion years and may have had life on it for two billion, but it is only in the last fifty years that intelligent life capable of sending radio waves into space has lived on earth. From this it might seem that even if there were no technical problems involved, the chance of receiving signals from any particular earth-type planet would be extremely small.
    This does not mean that intelligent life at our level does not exist somewhere. There are such an unimaginable number of stars that, even at such miserable possibility, it seems certain that there are millions of intelligent life forms scattered through space. The only trouble is, none may be within easy distance of us. Perhaps none ever will be; perhaps the distances that separate us from our fellow “creatures” of this universe will forever remain too great to be conquered. And yet it is conceivable that someday we may come across one of them or, frighteningly, one of them may come across us. What would they be like, these outside-the-earth creatures？

    1. 1.

      What point is the author making by stating that almost every star has some sort of family of planets？

      1. A.
        Sooner or later intelligent beings will be found on one of the stars.
      2. B.
        There must be one or two of the planets on which there are no intelligent beings.
      3. C.
        There are sufficient planets for there to be one that enjoys the same conditions as the earth does.
      4. D.
        One or two billion years later intelligent beings will generate on those planets.
    2. 2.

      What is the main topic of the passage？

      1. A.
        Some probable intelligent life forms on other planets.
      2. B.
        Various stages undergone by the intelligent life on other planets.
      3. C.
        Grounds for probable existence of intelligent life on other planets.
      4. D.
        The possibility of intelligent life existing on our planet.
    3. 3.

      Which of the following can be inferred from the passage？

      1. A.
        An encounter is probable between people from the earth and intelligent beings from another planet.
      2. B.
        Though the first attempt failed, scientists did discover the radio waves sent out by other intelligent beings.
      3. C.
        Other intelligent beings were able to send our radio waves into space well before the last fifty years.
      4. D.
        It is certain that there are millions of intelligent beings scattered in space but only too far away.
    4. 4.

      According to the author, what is the difference between “we may come across one of them” and “one of them may come across us”？

      1. A.
        The earth would be dangerously disadvantaged if it is sought after by possibly much more developed creatures.
      2. B.
        It would prove that there are too many outside-the-earth creatures if “one of them comes across us”.
      3. C.
        The history of the development of the earth would be proved to be shorter than that of “them” if “they” come across us.
      4. D.
        it would prove that the distance in between is not so great as we think if “we come across one of them” someday.

    In the United States in the early 1800’s, individual state governments had more effect on the economy than did the federal government. States controlled manufacturing, banking, mining and transportation firms and participated in the construction of various internal improvements such as canals, turnpikes（收费关卡）, and railroads. The states encouraged internal improvements in two distinct ways: first, by actually establishing state companies to build such improvements; second, by providing part of the capital for mixed public-private companies setting out to make a profit.
    In the early nineteenth century, state governments also engaged in a surprisingly large amount of direct restricting activity, including extensive licensing and inspection programs. Licensing targets reflected both similarities in and difference between the economy of the nineteenth century and that of today: in the nineteenth century, state regulation through licensing fell especially on drug dealers, innkeepers and retail merchants of various kinds. The goods of trade generally came under state inspection and such important raw material as lumber and gunpowder were also subject to state control. Finally, state governments experimented with direct labor and business regulation designed to help the individual laborer or consumer, including setting maximum limits on hours of work and restrictions on price-fixing by business.
    Although the states dominated economic activity during this period, the federal government was not inactive. Its goals were the facilitation of western settlement and the development of native industries. Toward these ends the federal government pursued several courses of action. It established a national bank to stabilize banking activities in the country and, in part, to provide a supply of relatively easy money to the region, where it was greatly needed for settlement. It permitted access to public western lands on increasing easy term, with a summit in the Homestead Act of 1862, by which title to land could be claimed on the basis of residence alone. Finally, it set up a system of tariffs（关税） that was basically protectionist in effect, although maneuvering for position by various regional interests produced frequent changes in tariff rates throughout the nineteenth century.

    1. 1.

      What does the passage mainly discuss？

      1. A.
        States rights versus federal rights.
      2. B.
        The participation of state governments in railroad, canal, and turnpike construction.
      3. C.
        The roles of state and federal government in the economy of the nineteenth century.
      4. D.
        Restricting activity by state government.
    2. 2.

      It can be inferred from the first paragraph that in the nineteenth century canals and railroads were ______.

      1. A.
        built with money that came from the federal government
      2. B.
        much more expensive to build than they had been previously
      3. C.
        built predominantly in the western part of the country
      4. D.
        sometimes built in part by state companies
    3. 3.

      According to the passage, which of the following is true of the Homestead Act of 1862？

      1. A.
        It increased the money supply in the West.
      2. B.
        It was a law first passed by state government in the West.
      3. C.
        It made it increasingly possible for settlers to obtain land in the West.
      4. D.
        It established tariffs in a number of regions.
    4. 4.

      Which of the following activities was the responsibility of the federal government in the nineteenth century？

      1. A.
        Control of the manufacture of gunpowder.
      2. B.
        Determining the conditions under which individuals worked.
      3. C.
        Regulation of the supply of money.
      4. D.
        Inspection of new homes built on western lands.
