2．Regarded as one of the English language's most gifted poets，John Keats wrote poetry that concentrated on imagery，human nature，and philosophy．Although Keats didn't receive much formal literary education，his own studies and passion brought him much success．Additionally，his own life situation influenced his poetry greatly．
   Growing up as a young boy in London in a lower middle-class family，the young John didn't attend a private school，but went to a public one．His teachers and his family's friends regarded him as an optimistic boy who favored playing and fighting much more than minding his studies．After his father's death in the early 1800s，followed by his mother's passing due to tuberculosis （肺结核），he began viewing life differently．He wanted to escape the world and did so by reading anything h e could get his hands on．
   At around the age of 16，the teenage John Keats began studying under a surgeon so that he too might become a doctor．However，his literary appetite had taken too much of his fancy，especially with his addiction to the poetry of Ehmund Spenser．He was able to have his first full poem published in the Examiner in 1816，entitled O Solitude!If I Must With Thee Dwell．Within two months in 1817，Keats had written an entire volume of poetry，but was sharply criticized by a magazine．However，the negative response didn't stop his pursuit of rhythm （韵律）．
   John Keats'next work was Endymion，which was published in May 1818．The story involves a shepherd who falls in love with the moon goddess and leads him on an adventure of one boy's hope to overcome the limitations of being human．Following Endymion，however，he tried something more narrative-based and wrote Isabella．During this time，John Keats began seeing his limitations in poetry due to his own limit in life experiences．He would have to have the"knowledge"associated with his poems．His next work was Hyperion that would attempt to combine all that he learned．However，a bout （发作） with tuberculosis while visiting Italy would keep him from his work and eventually take his life in 1821．
24．John Keats'attitude towards life changed because ofB．
A．his early education from school
B．the deaths of his parents
C．Edmund Spenser's poetry
D．the criticism of a magazine
25．What is the common thing between John Keats and his mother？A

D．They showed strong interest in poetry
26．While pursuing his dream of becoming a poet at first，John Keats wasA．

27．What do we know from the passage？B
A．Keats received little education at school．
B．Keats once had a chance of becoming a doctor．
C．In 1816 Keats spent two months writing a poem．
D．Endymion was about a real love story．

19．Everybody in this world is different from one another．But do you know that understanding differences can help you better manage your money？
As we grow up，we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs．These are influenced by society，our family，the education we receive and so on．Once this value system is set up，it's not easy to change later in life．
Financial experts say that everyone also has their own belief of how to manage their finances．This is part of our value system and it has a great impact on the way we look after our money．
According to our different values，experts put us in three categories．They are：the ant，the cricket and the snail．
The ant works first
Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter，these people don't care about enjoying the moment．They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire．The ant loves to save but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks with low risk．
The cricket fun first
The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn't think too much about the future．They even borrow money when they really want something．Many young people now belong to this group．These people have little savings．When they get old，they might have problems．They should learn to save and buy insurance．
The snail lives under pressure
The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves．They take big long term loans from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses．They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure whether they can afford it．This can cause problems in the future．They should plan more carefully．
29．People with the character of the snail would like toC．
A．enjoy life at the moment without thinking much about the future
B．put work before everything else
C．live a luxury life at all costs
D．take the risk of investing a large sum of money

16．Many people think that the most popular way of communicating with other people is through the mouth．But what they don't know is that actual communication using mouth accounts for only around 10% （or even less） of all the means to communicate a message．
Moreover，you can never determine the honesty of people by what they say alone．In fact，words expressed through mouth do not reflect what people really think or feel．The only way you can determine their true inner feelings and thoughts is by reading their body language．
Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you can"see through"the emotions of other people？For example，you ask a person if he can do an important task．He says"OK"．But deep inside，you are questioning yourself，"Is he really willing to do this job？"or"Does he have the confidence to finish this task？"You can't question him directly because that would be like belittling  him．And even if you ask him those questions，his replies will not tell you what he really feels or thinks．
Then what is the final solution？Here are just a few of the magic tricks you're about to discover：
◆Actions to make someone like or trust you．
◆How to win in a negotiation（谈判）．
◆How to attract the opposite sex using body language．
◆How to increase your sales using body language．

3．Being Authoritative （由权威的） ParentsPhrases like"tiger mom"and‘‘helicopter parent"have made their way into everyday language．Many of us find ourselves drawn to the idea that with just a bit more parental hard work and effort，we might turn out children with bright futures．But is there anything wrong with a kind of"overparenting style"？
Parental involvement has a long history of being studied．Many of the studies，conducted by Diana Baumrind，a famous psychologist at the University of California，Berkeley，have found that a good parent is the one who is involved and reacts to her child in a positive way，who sets high expectations but gives her child independence．These"authoritative parents"appear to hit the sweet spot of parental involvement and generally raise children who do better academically，psychologically and socially than children whose parents are not strict and less involved，or controlling and more involved．Why is this parenting style so successful？
Authoritative parents actually help improve motivation in their children．Carol Dweck，a social psychologist at Stanford University，has done research that indicates why authoritative parents raise more motivated children．In a typical experiment，Dr．Dweck takes young children into a room and asks them to solve a simple puzzle．Most do so with little difficulty．But then Dr．Dweck tells some，but not all，of the kids how clever they are．As it turns out，the children who are not told they're smart are more motivated to solve increasingly difficult puzzles．They also show higher levels of confidence and show greater progress in puzzle-solving．
As the experiment suggests，praising children's talents and abilities seems to shake their confidence．Dealing with more difficult puzzles carries the risk of losing one's status as"smart"．Dr．Dweck's work strongly supports that of Dr．Baumrind，who also found that reasonably supporting a child's independence and limiting interference （干涉） causes better academic and emotional results．
The central task of growing up is to develop a sense of self that is independent and confident．If you treat your young child who is just learning to walk as if she can't walk，you reduce her confidence．Allowing children to make mistakes is one of the greatest challenges of parenting．It is easier when they are young．The potential mistakes carry greater risks，and part of being a parent is reducing risk for our children．

A．helps her children realize their dreams
B．speaks her children's everyday language

A．face more challenges of children
B．foster independence in children
C．cause more problems in children
D．lead to children's academic success

A．a good game plays a big role in training young minds
B．overpraising makes children less motivated a nd confident
C．puzzle-solving can give children the motivation they need
D．bright children usually show less confidence in difficult games

A．children should not be given much freedom
B．parents should not increase the risk of challenging
C．parents should allow their children to learn from mistakes
D．children should correct mistakes with the help of their parents．
