6．All parents know that one of their most important tasks is to prepare their children for an independent life，but any parent can tell you that it's hard to let go of your children．That balance between keeping your children safe and allowing them to learn from their own mistakes can be heartbreaking．Years of experience means that parents often do know best，but on the other hand，the young，being less bound by tradition，are often more creative，more able to find new solutions to old problems．Revolutions are led by the young．
Good teachers make the growth of critical （批判性的） thinking easier in their students，only to find that this can lead to a questioning of the teachers'basic beliefs．Schools encourage parents to become involved，but are often embarrassed when parents have reservations about some of the educational methods being used．Governments encourage unimportant groups to empower themselves in order to participate fully in the development process．And they are often surprised when the new leaders of these groups turn around and attack the policies of that same government．The rebellions （叛逆的）young and the newly unimportant groups are important in social development．They are not necessarily representatives of those   they want to represent or not realistic in their demands，but their voices must be heard．
Good parents know that just forbidding particular behaviors does not prevent their children from finding ways to engage in these forbidden activities．Indeed，sometimes the forbidden fruit is more inviting，just because it is not accepted by authority．Parents must work with their children to educate them on the facts，know as much as possible about the lives of their children，provide a good example，encourage more wholesome activities but also support their children when they don't follow what is expected of them．But the most important point is that they also need to learn how to let go．

61、By saying"Revolutions are led by the young"，the author indicates that young people are moreA．
A．creative         B．realistic        C．conventional      D．heartbreaking
62、From the second paragraph we knowD．

D．the voice of the rebellious young should be heard by the government

13．Tips for avoiding traffic jams
The radio has more than just music．Check the local news station for the latest traffic report．Or go online and check traffic cameras before you set out．If there is a jam，you'll be prepared and can try another route．
Take the road less traveled．Although highways may be the most direct route，back roads can be much less crowded，which can save you from the frustration of the stop-and-go traffic．
Rush hour isn't just a lovely nickname．It means the morning and afternoon traffic lasts for several hours，but they are still called"rush hour"for a reason-everyone's on the road and in a hurry to get somewhere．Treat rush hour like bad weather-if you don't have to go anywhere，stay off the roads．
Tips for those unavoidable traffic jams
Don't break the law．You've gone 30feet in 30minutes and all of a sudden you see people using the shoulders（紧急停车道）．Don't behave like them．Not only is this illegal，but also there's a good chance they'll get caught or cause even more problems．
Pay extra attention to zig-zaggers when some people are anxious，they may start changing lanes every 5seconds or cut you off．Keep checking your windows and mirrors for these lane changers．
Look for an escape．If it is possible to exit the road safely，do it．Use a GPS unit，and you can change your route mid-trip if needed．
Be courteous．Good manners could help you avoid a possible accident．Allow people in from a lane that is ending．Speeding up to keep them out increases your chances of an accident．
60．To avoid traffic jams，we are advised to do the following EXCEPTD．
A．get traffic news before leaving
B．choose back roads
C．avoid rush hours
D．change lanes frequently
61．What should we do when there are zig-zaggars？A
A．Keep checking the mirrors
B．Stop and let them go first．
C．Sound the horn loudly
D．Drive quickly to keep them out．
62．When there is a traffic jam，we shouldC．
A．get off the car and walk round
B．use the shoulders as lanes
C．change the route if possible
D．drive back immediately
63．What do the underlined word"courteous"in the last paragraph mean？B
A．energetic
B．polite
C．careful
D．honest．
3．Some students get so nervous before an exam that they do poorly even if they know the material．Sian Beilock，a psychology professor at the University of Chicago，has studied these highly anxious exam-takers．
"They start worrying about the results．They might even start worrying about whether this exam is going to prevent them from getting into the college they want．And when we worry，it actually uses up attention and memory resources that you could otherwise be using to focus on the exam，"says Sian Beilock．
The researchers tested the idea on a group of 20anxious college students．They gave them two short math exams．After the first one，they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the coming second exam．
The researchers added to the pressure．They told the students that those who did well on the second exam would get money．They also told them that their performance would affect other students as part of a team effort．
Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of 20% worse on the second exam．But the students who had written about their fears improved their performance by an average of 5%．
Next，the researchers used younger students in a biology class．They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated to the exam．
Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who wrote about their feelings got an average grade of B+，compared with a B-for those who did not．
But what can they do if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam or presentation？Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in the library and they can still improve their performance．

61．In which paragraph does the author introduce the background（背景） of his study？A
A．In the first paragraph．
B．In the second paragraph．
C．In the third paragraph
D．In the last paragraph．
62．According to Sian Beilock，if you want to succeed in an exam you shouldB．
A．be as serious as you can about the exam．
B．focus your attention on the exam．
C．set clear study goals and keep them
D．make a careful preparation for the exam
63．We can infer from the study that students who sit quietly before the examC．
A．are more likely to get better exam results．
B．have a positive attitude towards exam results．
C．worry more about the exam in their mind．
D．have a strong will to be successful in the exam．
64．The underlined word"it"in the last paragraph refers to"C"．
A．looking for a chance                     B．preparing for the exam
C．writing about the feelings               D．taking the exam
65．If a student writes about his feelings before an exam，heA．
A．will improve his exam result          B．can keep a good memory of the exam
C．will get support from his teachers    D．will forget what he has prepared for the exam．

7．Your smart-phone（智能手机） can do a lot of things．It can call people．It connects to the Internet．It enables you to play fun games．But there is a dark side to this smart little device of yours-it might also spread disease．
"People are just as likely to get sick from their phones as from handles of the bathroom，"Jeffery Cain，the president of the American Academy of Family Physicians，told The Wall Street Journal．
This may be hard to believe，but scientists reached this conclusion after they tested eight random cell phones from an office in Chicago．All the tested phones showed high numbers of coli forms（大肠菌），a kind of bacteria found in excrement（粪便），with about 2，700 to 4，200 units of the bacteria on each phone．In drinking water，the healthy limit is less than 1 unit per 100 ml of water．This bacteria can cause flu，pinkeye（红眼病） and diarrhea（腹泻）．That's right-your phone is covered with excrement!
Although computers，keys and pens all carry bacteria，our smart-phones get far dirtier．They touch a lot of stuff，including our pocket or purse．We take them almost everywhere：the bus，the subway and who hasn't played Angry Birds or Fruit Ninja while sitting on the toilet？
"Some things that we think are personal are actually more public than we imagine，"Cain said．
What's even worse is that after the phone returns from its dirty trip，it then spends most of its time covering our faces．Our noses，mouths and ears are all warm and rich in grease（油脂），an environment that bacteria really like．
Compared to traditional keypads，touch screens spread bacteria more easily to hands．According to Time magazine's website，an expert in Australia warned that playing with iPads and iPhones at Apple stores is a health risk．
 
26．The underlined word"dark"in the first paragraph meansD．
A．black        B．hopeless         C．unclear          D．unpleasant
27．Which of the following best describes the tone of the third paragraph？C
A．Angry．B．Interested．C．Concerned．D．Delighted．
28．By saying"Some things we think are personal are actually more public than we imagine"in Paragraph 5，Cain meant thatC．
A．people love to share their smart-phones more than they realize
B．our personal items could be as risky to our health as public items
C．smart-phones are used in public places more than people realize
D．most people don't know how dirty their cell phones are
29．Compared with traditional keypads，smart-phonesB
A．are greasier and need more alcohol to clean
B．make contact with our hands more often
C．get warm more easily and are harder to clean
D．get much nearer to our faces
30．What is the article mainly about？B
A．Tips on the use of smart-phones．
B．Health problems caused by the use of smart-phones．
C．The danger of coli forms infection．
D．The influence that smart-phones have on our life．
8．Energy drinks are not allowedto be made （make） in Australia but are brought in from New Zealand．
