13．When I got the driving license last summer，Mom and I took our first trip around an empty parking lot．Then I found that my mother was not the best teacher for me．It wasn't that she shouted，or told me that I was doing poorly．As you can imagine，my mother's"helpful instructions"only managed to make me more nervous．
Since I could no longer practice with her，the job was placed in the hands of my father．The idea of learning from Dad was not one that thrilled me．I loved him dearly，but I just did not see Dad as someone I could be comfortable learning from．He almost never talked．We shared a typical father-daughter relationship．He'd ask how school was，and I'd say it was fine．Unfortunately，that was the most of our conversations．Spending hours alone with someone who might as well have been a stranger really scared me．
As we got into the car that first time，I was not surprised at what happened．Dad and I drove around，saying almost nothing，aside from a few instructions on how to turn．As my lessons went on，however，things began to change．Dad would turn the radio up so I could fully appreciate his favorite Stones music．And he actually began talking．I was soon hearing about past failed dates，"basic body"gym class，and other tales from his past，including some of his first meeting with Mom．
Dad's sudden chattiness was shocking until I thought about why he was telling me so much in the car．In all the years that I had wondered why my father never spoke that much，I had never stopped to consider that it was because I had never bothered to listen．Homework，friends，and even TV had all called me away from him，and，consequently，I never thought my quiet father had anything to say．
Since I began driving with him，my driving skill has greatly increased．More important，though，is that my knowledge of who my father is has also increased．Just living with him wasn't enough-it took driving with him for me to get to know someone who was a mystery．

20．Long-time exposure （暴露） to air pollution can lead to physical changes in the brain and cause trouble in learning and memory，and even anxiety．This is suggested by the results of new research on mice．
While other studies have shown the harmful effects of polluted air in the lungs and heart，this is the first to show the negative effect on the brain．
The team of Laura Fonken，Randy Nelson，from the Ohio State University，the USA，has spread to the brain a previous line of research which found that fine particulate（微粒） matter floating in the air mainly because of air pollution caused by humans，causes swelling in much of the body，and may be related to high blood pressure problems，and some other diseases．
In the research Fonken and his colleagues exposed mice to polluted air for six hours each day，five days a week，over a period of 10months，almost half the average life length of mice．
Polluted air contains fine particles created by cars，factories and natural dust．Fine particles of this kind are tiny，about 2.5micrometers in diameter（直径），or about one-thirtieth the width of a human hair．These particles can go deep into lungs and other organs．
The concentration of this particulate material to which they exposed mice is equal to the concentration at which people can be exposed in some polluted urban areas．
After a period of 10months，the researchers got the animals to have a series of behavioral tests．Both the behavior of mice and the results of neurological （神经的） tests done to them show that those within the polluted air had more problems in learning and memory，and higher levels of anxiety．
The results suggest that long-time exposure to polluted air can have measurable negative effects on the human brain and can cause a variety of mental health problems．This could have important consequences for those living and working in polluted urban areas．
28．The results of new research on mice first suggest that polluted air mainly does harm toC
A．normal organs
B．lungs and heart
C．mental health
D．blood pressure
29．What harmful effect of polluted air is mentioned in other studies？C
A．The harmful effect on learning．
B．The harmful effect on all the organs．
C．The harmful effect on lungs and heart．
D．The harmful effect on improving memory．
30．Which of the following is the best title for the passage？D
A．Long-time Exposure to Air Pollution
B．Evidence and Concern of Air Pollution
C．Measurable Effect on Human Brain
D．Mental Problems Caused by Air Pollution．

17．Did you know that something as simple as the wallpaper on your computer can tell people a lot about you？According to researcher Donna Dawson，our computers say something about what we're like because they are part of our"personal space．"
A picture of a child or family on the screen often means the person cares deeply about their loved ones．A photo of the person surrounded by friends shows they value their popularity and probably work well with other people．On the other hand，pictures showing examples of past successes，like winning a prize may mean a person is only interested in themselves．
Pictures of nature and natural scenery tell people that you are driven to succeed and use the pictures to relax and remove the pressure in your life．Cityscapes，pictures of cities or towns，show that you enjoy travel and adventure．Most people with cityscapes as their wallpaper are optimistic，happy people who feel even better thinking about the places they've visited or want to visit．
Pictures of animals show that you are optimistic and kind-hearted．You are often happy and you enjoy life and act young．Cartoons or drawings show that you are a multitasker，someone who does many things at once．You have many responsibilities，but you deal with them well．That's one reason you like having something to smile about when you look at your computer wallpaper．
Then，what does plain blue wallpaper tell us about a person？According to Dawson，a person with plain blue wallpaper probably values their privacy and keeps work from becoming too personal．
33．A prize photo as wallpaper suggests someoneA，
A．cares only about himself or herself
