    根据短文内容，从下框的A--F 选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余项。

    A.  Children don’t mean to annoy their parents.
    B.  Children can’t understand their parents.
    C.  Generation gap exists between parents and kids.
    D.  Communication can help you become independent.
    E.  Parents should understand their children.
    F.  Children want to prove parents are responsible.
    【小题1】Parents complain that their teenage children don’t listen to them. They don’t like the way their kids are dressed. They can’t appreciate the music their children prefer. They don’t like the stars their children admire.  Of course, teenagers too are puzzled. They wonder why there is always difference between them and their parents. This is what we call generation gap.
    【小题2】Some children have always complained that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they do not trust their children to deal with crises; that they talk too much about certain problems and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships. Actually, this happens as a result of misunderstanding because loving the young is the nature of all the parents.
    【小题3】Young people often get their parents annoyed with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in idols （偶像）and music, but that is not their desire. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music or idols or clothes or hairstyles annoy their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They may think that they are leaders in style and taste.
    【小题4】Sometimes you are satisfied if your parents don’t approve of what you do. You may think that they do so for your sake. They tend to bring their children under control just because they want to be responsible for their children. On the contrary, you’ll be sad if they let you do everything in your own way. That will make you think they don’t care about you.
    【小题5】If you plan to control your life, you are supposed to communicate with others in a more effective way. You can charm others, especially your parents, into doing things the way you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do.

    Inventor，physicist，surveyor，astronomer，biologist，artist... Robert Hooke was all these and more. Some say he was the greatest experimental scientist of the seventeenth century. Once he worked with renowned（有名声的） men of science like Christian Huygens，Antony van Leeuwenhoek，Robert Boyle，Isaac Newton and the great architect，Christopher Wren.

    Hooke’s early education began at home，under the guidance of his father. He entered Westminster School at the age of thirteen，and from there he went to Oxford，where he came in contact with some of the best scientists in England. Hooke impressed them with his skill at designing experiments and devising（发明） instruments. In 1662，at the age of twenty－eight，he was named Curator of Experiments of the newly formed Royal Society of London. Hooke accepted the job，even though he knew that it had no money to pay him!

    Watching living things through the microscope was one of his favorite occupations. He devised a compound microscope for this purpose. One day while observing a cork (软木) under a microscope，he saw honeycomb－like structures. They were cells—the smallest units of life.In fact，it was Hooke who coined the term “cell” as the boxlike cells of the cork reminded him of the cells of a monastery(修道院)．

    Perhaps because of his varied interests，Hooke often left experiments unfinished. Others took up where he left off and then claimed sole(独占的)credit. This sometimes led to quarrels with colleagues. One work that he finished was his book MICROGRAPHIA，a volume that reveals the immense potential of the microscope. The book also includes，among other things，ideas on gravity and light which may have helped scientists like Newton while they were developing their own theories on these phenomena.

    Hooke made valuable contributions to astronomy too. A crater(陨石坑) on the moon is named after him in appreciation of his services to this branch of science.

    1.From the first paragraph，we can know that Robert Hooke __________.

    A．was famous because he worked with many scientists

    B．liked making friends with the famous people

    C．received a lot from other scientists

    D．made contributions to many different fields

    2.Robert Hooke probably went to school in __________.

    A．1647　　　    　B．1634           C．1662          D．1640

    3.Robert Hooke made himself known to some of the best scientists in England by __________.

    A．learning by himself with his father’s help

    B．introducing himself to them

    C．designing experiments and instruments

    D．refusing any reward from Royal Society of London

    4.Robert Hooke couldn’t get along well with his colleagues because __________.

    A．he couldn’t finish his work on time sometimes

    B．he had all kinds of interests in his daily life

    C．he was too proud to look up to them

    D．the other scientists took the fruits of his experiments

    Motherhood may make women smarter and may help prevent dementia(痴呆) in old age by bathing the brain in protective hormones(荷尔蒙) , U.S. researchers reported on Thursday.

    Tests on rats show that those who raise two or more litters of pups do considerably better in tests of memory and skills than rats who have no babies, and their brains show changes that suggest they may be protected against diseases such as Alzheimer’s (早老痴呆症). University of Richmond psychology professor Craig Kinsley believes his findings will translate into humans.

    “Our research shows that the hormones of pregnancy (怀孕) are protecting the brain, including estrogen (雌激素), which we know has many neuroprotective (保护神经的) effects,” Kinsley said.  

    “It’s rat data but humans are mammals just like these animals are mammals,” he added in a telephone interview. “They go through pregnancy and hormonal changes.”

    Kinsley said he hoped public health officials and researchers will look to see if having had children protects a woman from Alzheimer’s and other forms of age-related brain decline.

    “When people think about pregnancy, they think about what happens to babies and the mother from the neck down,” said Kinsley, who presented his findings to the annual meeting of the Society of Neuroscience in Orlando, Florida.

    “They do not realize that hormones are washing on the brain. If you look at female animals who have never gone through pregnancy, they act differently toward young. But if she goes through pregnancy, she will sacrifice her life for her infant—that is a great change in her behavior that showed in genetic alterations(改变) to the brain.”

    1.How do scientists know “Motherhood may make women smarter”?

    A．Some researchers have told them.

    B．Many women say so.

    C．They know it by experimenting on rats.

    D．They know it through their own experience.

    2.What does the phrase “litters of pups” mean in the second paragraph?

    A．Baby rats.         B．Animals.           C．Old rats.          D．Grown-up rats.

    3.What can protect the brain of a woman according to the passage?

    A．Estrogen.                             B．The hormones of pregnancy.

    C．More exercise.                         D．Taking care of children.

    4.“It’s rat data but humans are mammals just like these animals are mammals.” What does the sentence suggest?

    A．The experiments on the rats have nothing to do with humans.

    B．The experiments on the rats are very important for animals.

    C．The experiments on the rats are much the same on humans.

    D．The experiments on the rats are much the same on other animals.

    The history of modern art begins with Impressionism, a movement started in Paris in the mid-1800’s. At that time many artists painted in a very traditional way that involved spending hours in a studio, painstakingly (辛苦地) creating paintings that were extremely detailed. These paintings were sometimes of people or landscapes or historical events. In 1863, Edouard Manet exhibited his painting “Dejeuner sur l’erbe” at the Salon des Refuses. The painting caused a commotion (骚动), thus starting the Impressionist movement. Although Edouard Manet is the declared leader and founder of the group, he was not present at the first group exhibition or any of the other eight collective Impressionist shows. The movement gained more attention in the April of 1874 when Claude Monet, Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, and Jean-Frédéric Bazille formed Society of Artists, Painters, Sculptors, Engravers and began exhibiting outside of the official salon. The same year, the term Impressionism was invented by criticizing (批评的) journalist Louis Leroy to describe their paintings, who worked for the magazine Le Charivari.

    The Impressionists often paint out of doors and want to show how light and shadow fall on objects at particular times of the day. Their works are sometimes described as “captured moments” and are characterized by short quick brushstrokes (笔) of colour which, when viewed up close looks quite messy and unreal. If we step back from the Impressionist paintings, the colours are blended together by our eyes and we are able to see the painters’ subjects which often show colourful landscapes, sunlight on water as well as people busy with outdoor activities.

    1.Before Impressionism, the works of artists were         .

    A．quite abstract

    B．very confusing

    C．very detailed

    D．quite controversial

    2.Who first started Impressionism? ___________

    A．Claude Monet.

    B．Edouard Manet.

    C．Auguste Renoir.

    D．Alfred Sisley.

    3. The works of the Impressionists are best viewed         .

    A．with imagination

    B．at a distance

    C．outdoors

    D．in a studio

    4.The second paragraph is mainly about ______.

    A．the painting style of the Impressionists

    B．how to describe the Impressionist paintings

    C．the influences of the Impressionist paintings

    D．the subjects of the Impressionist paintings
