A recent survey show that most students often communicate with our parents. But there are still some think it embarrassing to share their ideas with them. Actually everyone should attach importance to family communication. It can be strengthen the bond of the whole family or bridge the gap between children and parents.

On a hot summer day in America a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. He dived into the cool water, not realizing that as he swam towards the middle of the lake, a crocodile (鳄鱼) was swimming toward him.

His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him. From the shore, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war (拔河) between the two. The crocodile was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the crocodile.

Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches where his mother's fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.

The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Mom wouldn’t let go.”

Never judge another person's scars, because you don't know how they were made.

1.Which of the following is most related to the underlined word “passionate”?

A. Anxious. B. Determined.

C. Frightened. D. Courageous.

2.By saying “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too” in the fourth paragraph, the boy really wants to show__________.

A. how many scars and scratches he had

B. how deep the scars made by the crocodile were

C. how great and beloved his mother was

D. what a brave and courageous boy he was

3.In the story the writer intends to tell us that __________.

A. scars always remind people of their past experiences

B. it’s dangerous to swim alone in the water

C. the boy also feels painful in his mind

D. scars do not necessarily mean pain at all times

4.Which of the following will be the best title for the text?

Can you believe your eyes? A recent experiment suggests that the answer to that question may depend on your age.

Martin Doherty, a psychologist at the University of Stirling in Scotland, led the team of scientists. In this experiment, Doherty and his team tested the perception(观察力) of some people, using pictures of some orange circles. The researchers showed the same pictures to two groups of people. The first group included 151 children aged 4 to 10, and the second group included 24 adults aged 18 to 25.

The first group of pictures showed two circles alone on a white background. One of the circles was larger than the other, and these people were asked to identify the larger one. Four-year-olds identified the correct circle 79 percent of the time. Adults identified the correct circle 95 percent of the time.

Next, both groups were shown a picture where the orange circles, again of different sizes, were surrounded by gray circles. Here's where the trick lies in. In some of the pictures, the smaller orange circle was surrounded by even smaller gray circles —making the orange circle appear larger than the other orange circle, which was the real larger one. And the larger orange circle was surrounded by even bigger gray circles—so it appeared to be smaller than the real smaller orange circle.

When young children aged 4 to 6 looked at these tricky pictures, they weren't fooled—they were still able to find the bigger circle with roughly the same accuracy(准确性) as before. Older children and adults, on the other hand, did not do as well. Older children often identified the smaller circle as the larger one, and adults got it wrong most of the time.

As children get older, Doherty said, their brains may develop the ability to identify visual（视觉的） context. In other words, they will begin to process the whole picture at once: the tricky gray circles, as well as the orange circle in the middle. As a result, they're more likely to fall for this kind of visual trick.

1.Doherty and his team of scientists did an experiment to evaluate_____________.

A. children's and adults' eye-sight

B. children's and adults' brains

C. people's ability to see accurately

D. the influence of people's age

2.When asked to find the larger circle,_____________.

A. children at 4 got it right about 79 % of the time with gray ones around

B. only adults over 18 got it right 95% of the time with gray ones around

C. children at 6 got it wrong 79 % of the time with no gray ones around

D. adults got it right most of the time with gray ones around

3.According to the passage, we can know that_____________.

A. a smaller orange circle appears bigger on a white background

B. an orange circle appears bigger than a gray one of the same size

C. a circle surrounded by bigger ones looks smaller than its real size

D. a circle surrounded by other circles looks bigger than its real size

4.Why are younger children not fooled? _____________.

A. Because they are smarter than older children and adults.

B. Because older people are influenced by their experience.

C. Because people's eyes become weaker as they grow older.

D. Because their brain can hardly notice related things together.

Should we say goodbye to chivalry (骑士精神) in the age of sex equality?

Chivalry began as a response to the violence of the Middle Ages. PierMassimo Forni, the founder of the Civility Institute, says chivalry “as a form of treatment inspired by the sense that there was something special about women and that they deserve added respect.”

Today “chivalry” is often used as a term for “gentlemanly” behavior, related to “fair sex”, honor, courage and loyalty.

But we can hardly see chivalry nowadays with many women demanding to be treated equally in the workplace.

According to a 2013 survey carried out by the British Daily Mail, only one in seven men will offer their seat to a woman on a bus or train; over three-quarters of men don’t offer to help carry a heavy bag or suitcase for women.

In many cases, it’s not because these men are being insensitive, but on the contrary, they say they are unwilling to help women because they are worried about making them embarrassed.

These men may worry too much. According to the same survey, only seven percent of women view acts like holding open doors as unpleasant.

“Men seem confused by the modern ‘sex equality’ message”, psychologist and relationship expert Donna Dawson told the Daily Mail.

“This message was meant for the workplace and was never meant to replace good manners. Men will always be the stronger sex physically, so it is natural for them to show consideration for women.”

So, should the acts of chivalry be brought back? US writer Emily Smith says chivalry is what we should all long for. Many people are predicting the death of chivalry, but chivalry is not dead yet. Slowly but surely, chivalry is making a come-back.

1.The question at the very beginning of the passage is used to _____.

A. express the author’s curiosity

B. cause a heated discussion

C. introduce a controversial topic

D. solve a serious social problem

2.Which is NOT part of “chivalry”?

A. Violence. B. Loyalty. C. Courage. D. Honor.

3.Some men are not willing to help women because _____.

A. they are not sensitive enough

B. they had no good manners

C. they are afraid of women

D. they misunderstood “sex equality”

4.Emily Smith holds the view that _____.

A. some messages can make men confused

B. men should show consideration for women

C. chivalry is quite good and sure to come back

D. “sex equality” will never replace good manners

I'm often told how I have a dream job, that I work for a great company, getting to deal with the leaders in social media every day, and especially that I get to work from my home.

Usually the people who tell me that working from home is wonderful have never worked from home. They spend most of their career working from an office and hate it.

In fact, I love being able to work from home and make my own hours. I truly appreciate being able to drop what I'm doing to attend kids or go shopping, but there's a side to it we don't often talk about, the hard side. No one wants to believe people like me, working from home, have anything to complain about. Really, I'm not going to complain, but I do want to share a few things about telecommuting (远程办公) that few home-based people want to tell you, because working from home doesn't look so wonderful.

One of the reasons I love my job is the flexibility(灵活性). I know that I can volunteer for school projects, meet friends for lunch and work out for an hour as long as I get my work done. But did you know telecommuters have to make up the time if they wish to fill their days with fun items? So while my husband and kids are watching a movie, I'm working until midnight. Besides, when you work from home, you're held to your phone and Skype (网络电话) in case someone wants to talk to you during business hours. So it's not so easy to be flexible!

1.We learn from the passage that the writer_____________.

A. can balance her work and family life well

B. is quite satisfied with her present work

C. presents some unknown facts of working from home

D. complains about the disadvantages of working from office

2.The last paragraph mainly tells us that__________.

A. you're usually a slave to yourself

B. the writer is always busy with her work

C. the writer can always make full use of the freedom

D. you're not as flexible as you think you are

3.The writer probably agrees that__________.

A. get work done, or you'll have no freedom

B. east or west, home working is the best

C. freedom should always come before work

D. all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy

4.Who is the passage mainly intended for?

A. Job hunters. B. Office workers.

C. Researchers. D. Telecommuters.

Culture Shock

Culture shock refers to the anxiety and feelings (of surprise, uncertainty, confusion, etc.) felt when people have to operate within a different and unknown cultural or social environment, such as a foreign country.

Generally speaking, we could say that there are four stages of culture shock. The first stage is called “the honeymoon”. In this stage, you are excited about living in a different place. 1.

The next stage is “the hostility(敌意)stage”. In this stage, you begin to notice not everything is as good as you originally thought it was. 2. Moreover, people don't treat you like a guest anymore.

Then you come to the third stage called “recovery”. In this stage, you start to feel more positive. _3._ The whole situation starts to become more favorable and you begin to learn to adapt yourself to it.

The last stage of culture shock is called “adjustment”. In this stage, you have reached a point where you actually feel good. 4. The things that originally made you feel uncomfortable or strange are now things that you understand. Now you have adjusted to the new culture and you feel comfortable.

Not all individuals visiting another country will experience all these four stages.

5. It also occurs within cultures as individuals move from place to place or from one setting to another (e.g., from high school to college).

A．You feel that friends should help each other to deal with culture shock.

B．And you try to develop comprehension of everything you don't understand.

C．In addition, culture shock is not limited to the overseas visitor.

D．You become tired of many things about the new culture.

E．You have learned enough to understand the new culture.

F．You begin to understand you need to travel a lot.

G．And everything seems to be marvelous and everybody seems to be so nice to you.

A scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of some four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.

By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation early on were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible .Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn’t show up on an IQ test.

The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists’ concerns. But brain theory can’t explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul.

Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it comes to predicting people’s success, brain ability as measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as “character”.

EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how one’s ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the elements for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.

While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously, some few fear EQ invites misuse.

1.The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that______ .

A. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experiment

B. emotional intelligence won’t show up until adolescence

C. the ability of self-control plays a role in personal success

D. candy can be used to measure a person’s emotional intelligence

2.The underlined word “upbeat” in Paragraph 4 probably means______ .

A. kind B. floating C. excited D. cheerful

3.Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text?

A. To amuse both the children and readers.

B. To prove the scientist’s wisdom.

C. To introduce the topic of the text.

D. To show us how to do an IQ test.
