13.There is a popular saying in the English language:Sticks and stones may break my bones,but words will never hurt me."Well,that is not true.Unkind words,name-calling or even the so-called"the silent tretment"can hurt children as much as being physically hit,sometimes even more so.
A recent study of middle school children showed that verbal(言语的)abuse by other children can harm development in the brain.The study was a project of researchers at Harvard Medical School in Massachusetts.Researcher Martin Teicher and his team studied young dults,aged 18to 25.These young men and women h ad not ever been treated in a cruel or violent way by their parents.The researchers asked the young people to rate their childhood exposure to verbal abuse from both parents and other children.Then the researchers performed imaging tests on the brains of the subjects.
The images showed that the people who reported suffering verbal abuse from peers in middle school had underdeveloped connections between the left and right side of he brain.The two sides of the brain are connected by a large bundle of connecting fibers called the corpus callosum(胼胝体,胼胝体,脑胼胝体).This was the area that was underdeveloped.
The middle school years are a time when these brain connections are developing.So,unkind,hurtful comments from children or adults during this period have the greatest effect.The researchers tested the mental and emotional condition of all the young people in the study.The tests showed that this same group of people had higher levels of fear,depression,anger and drug abuse than others in the study.
The researchers published their findings online o the American Journal of Psychiatry's website.
Parents cannot control what other people say to their children,but they can prepare their children.

25.Why does the author use the popular saying at the beginning?B
A.To show the power of words.
B.To introduce an opposite view.
C.To prove the author's argument.
D.To show ancient people's wisdom
26.What did the subjects have in common?D
A.They were hurt by unkind words.
B.They performed poorly in imaging tests.
C.They had their brain slightly damaged.
D.They experienced no physical abuse at home.
27.What will be discussed in the next paragraph?C
A.Comments on the findings.
B.Approaches to further studies.
C.Suggestions to parents.
D.Different opinions on the matter.
28.What is the main idea of the passage?C
A.The way we speak maters.
B.Verbal violence should be stopped.
C.Unkind words hurt the brain.
D.Words are worse than sticks and stones.
14.Living an adventurous lifeNearly ten years ago,I was told that I had a brain tumor (瘤),and this experience changed my attitude about adventure forever.I thought that I was going to die and that all my adventures were over.I did not have a brain tumor,it turned out,but rather multiple sclerosis (多发性硬化),which meant that,although they were not over,the nature of my adventures could have to change.
Each morning that I wake up is a fresh event,something that I might not have had.Each gesture that I make carries the weight of uncertainty and demands significant attention; buttoning my shirt,changing a light bulb,walking down stairs.I might not be able to do it this time.If I could not delight in them,they would likely drown me in anger and in self-pity.
I admire the grand adventures of others.I read about them with interest.With Peter Matthiessen I have hiked across the Himalayas to the Crystal Mountain.I have walked with Annie Dillard up,down,into,and across Tinker Creek in all seasons.David Bain has gone with me along 110 miles of Philippine coast,and Ed Abbey has rowed me down the Colorado River,I enjoy the adventures of these courageous figures,who can strike out on difficult trips-2 miles,250 miles,3000 miles-ready to bear cold and tiredness-indeed not just to bear but to celebrate.
But as for me,I can no longer walk very far from the armchair in which I read.Some days I don't even make it to the backyard.And yet I'm unwilling to give up the adventurous life; the difficulty of it,even the pain,the an xiety and fear,and the sudden brief lift of spirit that makes a hard journey more attractive.
I refine adventure,make it smaller and smaller.And now,whether I am moving on my hands and knees across the dining room to help my cat,lying wide-eyed in the dark battling another period of sadness,gathering flowers from the garden,meeting a friend for lunch,I am always having the adventures that are mine to have.
