16.My mother sat in silence,shocked by my guided tour of websites of adventurous families,who bike around the world for charity,sail the globe in search of their roots or see the world through children's eyes.We found many people on boats,bikes and foot,showing that adventure doesn't have to die when a new life is created.As one of my friends says,‘This is your one and only chance to explore the world with your children as they are now.
‘Mum,'I began awkwardly.‘We're going to travel across New Zealand.Two bikes,two trailers(拖车),two toddlers(学步的孩子)and 2,000miles.'
‘Two thousand nappies(纸尿裤)more like.'
My mother wasn't the only one to raise objections.While friends and family were impressed by our bravery,they were horrified at what it would involve.‘No nursery,no babysitters,no bath time,no peace,no escape…'And that was before we mentioned the real difficulty:pulling 50kg of trailer,toddler and baggage.And of course the nappies.
‘Is there anything I can say to put you off?'my mother asked.
‘No,Mum,'I replied firmly.
‘Well,we'll see about that.'
The challenge of dealing with my mother's phone call about potential disasters is as great as anything we may have to face on the road.Meanwhile,we rush to toilet-train both children to avoid the nappy carrying.Among the voices of doubt and disapproval,I still sometimes wonder if we are mad,but know we aren't mad alone.We have now been in communication with many of the families I showed my mother on the web.And we can feel our own voice getting stronger  and more confident with their encouragement,advice and support.
Now we know there are so many families out there adventuring,we're already developing ideas for a world tour to meet some of these families and talk with them about their experiences and spread the word about the possibilities for independent family adventure.As a friend of ours said,‘The only limit is the parents'imagination.'We intend to let ours run wild.

24.What made the author's mother surprised?B
A.That there're so many things to view on the Internet.
B.That so many parents travel with their small children.
C.That there're so many different ways to see the world.
D.That the author made so many friends on the Internet.
25.When the author's friends knew her travel plan,they feltB.
A.envious      
B.worried       
C.curious     
D.excited
26.When the author is travelling,her mother phones her toC.
A.offer her advice on training children
B.help her get in touch with friends

11.It's official.Denmark---as well as being the world's best country to live in for women with the second-happiest people and one of the best healthcare systems in Europe---has the most contented babies.Or,at least,the ones who cry the least.According to research published in the Journal of Pediatrics,Danish,German and Japanese babies cry the least,while British,Canadian and Italian babies cry the most.
"I'm not surprised,"Danish parenting expert and co-author of The Danish Way of Parenting Jessica Alexander tells me."The first year of a child's life is considered so important in Denmark.Danish parents are much less stressed because they get good maternity and paternity leave (孕产假).The atmosphere is much calmer and,if mothers are getting more time off,that goes hand in hand with less stress,more contact,more routines and less crying."She pauses before throwing in a final tip:"Oh,and Danish babies sleep outdoors a lot."
In Denmark,a woman is given four weeks pregnancy leave followed by 52weeks of paid leave that can be shared between parents.And Alexander thinks there is another important reason why Danish babies cry less:breastfeeding."It's just the done thing in Denmark,"she says of a country that has the world's highest breastfeeding rates."In other countries,there are continual discussions about whether you should or shouldn't breastfeed.In Denmark,breastfeeding has never gone out of style.And everyone does it for a year."
For Iben Sandahl,Alexander's co-author,it comes down to the Danish attitude to life in general."We are an honest and pure people,"she tells me."We are surrounded by social support and are less likely to become angry,sad or annoyed when our babies are crying.And we are good at embracing (拥抱) all kinds of feelings,so we aren't scared.Instead,we try to connect with the babies when they cry.It's how babies communicate and it's about trying to understand it."

28.Which of the following can make a baby cry less?B
A.An effective healthcare system.
B.More company from a parent.
C.An energetic busy mother.
D.More chances to meet fellow babies.
29.It can be learned from the text thatD.
A.something in the milk from breastfeeding can keep babies happy.
B.Demark is second to none in protecting its females'rights.
C.Danish parents'attitudes to a baby's first year vary considerably
D.breastfeeding is a common and accepted practice in Denmark
30.When babies cry,Danish parents will probablyA.
A.try to figure out what they want
B.put them outdoors for a good sleep
C.seek social support for guidance
D.wait a moment for them to calm down.
8.There's always that one student who never speaks.They constantly stare down at the desk or their work,afraid to direct their eyes else.Occasionally,they'll glance your way but only to look back down again.It is clear from their body language that the student is uncomfortable,but there's no way in making him feel at home.The timidity (胆小,羞怯) and the vulnerability(脆弱) in his eyes say all that needs to be said.
Though this student is an extreme example of an introvert(内向的人),there are still students like the student mentioned above.I know that one of this kind hide in the shadows of each of the world's classrooms.
In some countries,this little boy may swift through life successful,wealthy,and content with his life.However,the introvert cannot find comfort in America where there are outgoing,socially confident people,talking,shouting,and laughing for the world to hear.
America is a nation of those who peak freely.In fact,one of the most prized clauses of our Constitution is the freedom of speech.There is nothing we love more than the right to speak as we please,so much so that the burning of the American flag is a protected speech.Though it is looked down upon,the person who burnt the flag will not deserve a punishment of any kind.It's legal.
What seems to not be legal,however,is shyness.In a nation full of discussion,those who fear of speaking will not get by.In my high school,for example,teachers often hold Socratic Seminars of class discussion where students are expected to voice their opinions.Stressing the fact that what is said does not have to be correct,teachers encourage students to speak up.Most of the grades in my classes,in fact,rely heavily on participation.
Personally,I dislike public speaking.Class discussion where students mention repeated points over and over again is not my strength,but I must force myself to raise my voice.If I don't,often times there are other people talking for me.
Gradually I realized something else.Speaking stimulates the mind,enhances one's thoughts,and establishes a sense of confidence that wouldn't otherwise have been instigated.It may be uncomfortable and it may be embarrassing,but it's all worthwhile in the end.
Although I stress the importance of social confidence,it is not unheard of to see introverts stand out in various activities.In college,for example,they would be studying rather than spending the day with friends.They would be seen in a library rather than at a social event.Although these types of students lack the outgoing personality,they do not always lack the motivation and desire to succeed.Often times,the introverts will gather to form a friend group.Their happiness is from what brings them pleasure,and if they are content without speaking their mind,so be it.
