9．Amber，16，has been in four foster-care homes（寄养家庭）in two years．Now she is getting a makeover（精心打扮）at the mall to be filmed in a television station in Boise，Idaho，which may help her find a permanent family that does the ordinary things families do-go on picnics，eat out，and watch movies together．
Ten years ago，teenagers such as Amber were so hard to place with adoptive families that hardly anyone tried．If you talked about finding a home for an older child，that meant the kid was 7or 8．But today，people are increasingly willing to adopt those who are 9years old or older，and most experts believe the phenomena will continue．
Of course，the teens often need as much encouragement and advice as the future parents do．In St．Louis，Missouri，Project Teen Plus provides a support group to help teenagers talk about their fears and doubts about being adopted，for many of them have lived in institutions so long that they have no idea what life in a family is like．And teens often have mixed feelings about joining a new family．Many teens in foster care are worried that being adopted means having to reject their birth families．One adoption expert suggests finding out the reasons for teenagers'resistance and offering the choice of remaining in touch with their birth families after entering adoptive homes．
The key to success seems to be careful preparation and patience of both the teen and the family．So a teenager usually spends six to nine months with a future family before an adoption is finally decided．For example，a couple decided to open their home to Michael，17．For ten months，the couple and the boy struggled to get to know and accept one another．But Michael's 18th birthday brought about change．The big event was not only his first birthday with his adoptive family but also the first time he had ever been given birthday gifts and a cake．For Michael's new parents，the rewards have been great．"You're not just helping someone else，"says Father．"You're making a decision to grow as a family．"

67．The purpose of mentioning Amber in the first paragraph isC．
A．to show the readers the ordinary things families do
B．to help Amber find a permanent family to adopt her
C．to introduce the topic of teenager adoption to readers
D．to indicate that teenager girls are eager to be film stars
68．According to the passage，why do teenagers fear and doubt about being adopted？B
A．They spend too much time living all by themselves．
B．They don't know what their life will be in a new family．
C．They can't get enough support from some institutions．
D．They talk less with the future parents about adoption．
69．Many teens in foster care think being adopted meansC．
A．no longer seeing their friends
B．saying good-bye to their pets
C．having to reject their birth families
D．losing their choice of education
70．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？A

10．Prejudice is a preconceived opinion that is not based on fact or reason．Examples of prejudice in schools include believing that some students are particular type of people simply because of the way they dress or act，or believing that a certain group is good at sports simply because many peop1e in that group are goad at sports．Another example is believing that a boy is good at science because many boys are good at science．
I would like to cite more examples from the English literature．The best example of"prejudice"can be found in Jane Austen's novels．Her novels in the history of English literature are popularly known as"novels of manners"．Thus you can clearly understand that where manners and social behavior are concerned，"prejudice"is inevitable!Austen's famous novel Pride and Prejudice is the best example in this respect．When you read the novel，the very first line that would strike you is"it is a truth universally acknowledged，that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife．"It is an example of 18th century English middle class prejudice that eventually looked upon women just as an object that would serve as the basic sign for a man to establish his manliness and his superior and well acquired financial status．This novel is chiefly about class division，social norms and the consequent human behavior．The characters Elizabeth and Darcy，in their journey of 1ife through the course of the novel，highlight their personal prejudices towards one another that arise from their different social strata（阶层）．Darcy，a rich man，at first，fails to admire the beauty and intelligence of Elizabeth because of her low social status："she is tolerable； but not handsome enough to tempt me；"and Elizabeth，proud of her"first impressions"，failed to understand the well natured man under the proud and unfriendly Darcy．
33．What is"prejudice"defined in this passage？C
A．Prejudice is a reasonable idea that is based on one's own experience．
B．Prejudice is a preference for one group of people or things over another．
C．Prejudice is a preconceived opinion before becoming aware of fact or reason．
D．Prejudice is an unreasonable dislike of a particular group of people or things．
34．The underlined word"inevitable"in the second paragraph probably_meansA．
A．unavoidable B．reasonable C．unbelievable D．valuable
35．From the novel Pride and Prejudice，we can't learn thatB．
A．where manners and social behavior are concerned"prejudice"is inevitable
B．"prejudice"was defined and compared with"pride"in 18th century
C．it's about class division，social norms and the consequent human behavior
D．personal prejudices towards one another arise from different social strata．
