8.I'd planned to spend my weekend in the sun,potting flowers outdoors.But that was before the pair of crows (乌鸦).Out of nowhere,they had set up their base camp in our backyard.
We first discovered our feathered enemies on Friday morning.It was early,and the sound the birds made traveled through our neighborhood.I figured they'd go away soon.But,no.They were getting louder and probably annoying my neighbors nearly as much as us with the noise.I admit I got a little desperate.
Then,on Sunday afternoon,I looked out the kitchen window to see our dog Quatchi staring at something on the ground.I went to explore and found a small coal-black bird in the grass.Its eyes were milky,and it stayed perfectly still as my dog walked towards it.Only when Quatchi touched his nose to its head did it walk away.I grabbed the dog and locked him inside and came back with my camera.
It never occurred to me that the young would be hanging out on the ground,growing and gaining strength as its parents guarded it from above.The second I saw this little creature I forgave the crows.
To be honest,I've never been much of a bird person.I also have a healthy respect for birds.They're basically living dinosaurs.
I wish they'd chosen another backyard.There are only so many sunny days in Seattle,and I still can't do any gardening out there.But I'm also grateful that I got to see this little bit of nature unfold up close.It's pretty amazing.
The experience has also strengthened my desire to create a beautiful backyard garden that attracts lots of bees,butterflies,and yes,birds.They are welcome here.

3.Billboard Music Awards of the Year 2015goes to Taylor Swift,a singer-songwriter,who has shaped and inspired the American music industry with her success.
When Taylor Swift first came to public notice,she was a 17-year-old newcomer who loved singing to her own guitar.She was far more enthusiastic than skilled,but apparently threw spark of superb talent.
Four year's later,Swift has become a multi-awards winner,with the biggest selling albums(唱片).For her outstanding performance,Taylor Swift was named Billboard magazine's woman in 2011.She is the youngest artist to receive honors and several Billboard Music Awards,among them Top Country Album for the five-time platinum(白金) selling Speak Now,her third album that was released that year.
"Taylor has shown the power of good songwriting with music of styles."said Bill Werde,Billboard's editorial director,"And at such a young age,Taylor has already made a major impact on music and has been an unbelievable role model for promising artists and young woman everywhere."
Swift is used to breaking chart records and winning honors since her career started.She followed that up in 2008with Fearless,which established her as a skilled songwriter with several hits,including Love Story,You Belong With Me and White Horse.
Not surprisingly,the 6-time platinum Fearless is the most awarded album in country music history in the US and her overall worldwide sales now reach 20million albums and 40million songs downloads.Swift has spent the past year on the Speak NOW World Tour in support of her third album,and now she's getting ready to go further.
According to a recent interview with The New Yorker magazine,Swift has so far written about 10songs for a 2016album.She said the new album is about feelings of growing up and becoming an adult.
"They're sad if I'm being honest."Swift told The New Yorker."They're about my heartbreaks and my moving on.But more importantly,they are about achieving contentment.You're not always going to be ridiculously happy as you grow up."

20.Chinese female film stars,like Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi,due to the charm of their films,have set a good image for Chinese women in the world.Compared with Chinese women,the image of Chinese men is not so good in the eyes of Western women,the Shanghai Evening Post reported.
    In March 2006,Zhang Jiehai,a doctorate(博士学位) holder at the Sociology Institute of the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences,led a research team to investigate how Western women look at Chinese men.The survey shows that many Western women think Chinese men are mostly known for their care for the family.Chinese men,as the Western women say,are willing to spend money for women.As to their shortcomings,Western women think that Chinese men do not have good manners and that some Chinese men have the habit of spitting everywhere,keeping nails and hair long,picking their noses and ears in public places,and not cleaning their teeth thoroughly.These bad habits make many Western women think that Chinese men are unwilling to take care of their personal image.
    The survey was carried out in two ways,by questionnaires and interviews.All the respondents(调查对象) agreed that Chinese men show much tender loving care for the family and that many Chinese men do know how to respect women.They open the door for women and carry their handbags for them.For some American women,the bad image of Chinese men in the world is largely because of Hollywood films.In many Hollywood films,Chinese men usually do not have a good image.But this has been changed by Hong Kong film star Chow Yun-Fat.After the Chinese film Crouching Tiger,Hidden Dragon was shown in cinemas in the United States in 2002,many Westerners began to change their impression of Chinese men.

18.As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows,there is far more to a family meal than food.Sociologist (社会心理学家)Michael Lewis has been studying 50families to find out just how much more.
Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping(录像) the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes.They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children.But as the number of children gets larger,conversation gives way to the parents'efforts to control the loud noise they make.That can have an important effect on the children."In general the more question-asking the parents do,the higher the children's IQ scores."
Lewis says,"And the more children there are,the less question-asking there is."
The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings(兄弟姐妹).Lewis found that in families with three or four children,dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child,who has the most to talk about,and the youngest,who needs the most attention."Middle children are invisible(看不见的),"says Lewis."When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner,chances are it's the middle child."There is,however,one thing that stops all conversations and prevents anyone from having attention:"When the TV is on,"Lewis says,"dinner is a non-event."

56.The writer's purpose in writing the text is toD.
A.show the relationship between parents and children
B.teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner table
C.give information about family problems
D.report on the findings of a study
57.Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner becauseB.
A.they are busy serving food to their children
B.they are busy keeping order at the dinner table
C.they have to pay more attention to younger children
D.they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family
58.By saying"Middle children are invisible"in Paragraph 3,Lewis means that middle childrenA.
A.get the least attention from the family   
B.have to help their parents to serve dinner
C.are often kept away from the dinner table
D.find it hard to keep up with other children
59.Lewis'research provides an answer to the questionD.
A.why TV is important in family life
B.why parents should keep good order
C.why children in small families seem to be quieter
D.why middle children seem to have more difficulties in life.
