At the age of 13, I was angry and rebellious(叛逆的),with little regard for anything my parents had to say,  1  if it had to do with me.  2  so many teenagers, I struggled to escape from anything that didn’t 3  my picture of the world.

One night, after a particularly  6 day, I stormed into my room, shut the door and got into bed. 7  I lay down in the privacy of my bed, my hands slipped under my pillow. There was a(n)  8 . I pulled it out and on the envelope it  9  “To read when you’re  10 ”.

I also know that I love you completely and  12  you do or say will ever change that. I am here  13  you if you ever need to talk, and if you don’t, that’s  14 . Just know that  15 where you go or what you do in your life, I will always love you and be proud that you are my son. Love, Mom.”
That was the  16 of several “To read when you’re alone” letters. They were 17  mentioned until I was an adult. In the midst of my turbulent(不安分的)teen years, the letters were the calm assurance that I could be  18  in spite of my rebelliousness. Just before I fell asleep I thanked God that my mom knew what I, an angry teenager,  19 . Today when the seas of life get stormy, I know that just under my  20  there is that calm assurance that love — consistent, enduring, unconditional love — changes lives.

Several years ago, a student working on a research project in my laboratory approached me with concern.“I’m doing something wrong,”she exclaimed. I had seen her research results and knew she was making good progress, so I was surprised to hear that she was having a problem. Over the next several days we went through her experiment; yet I could not find a problem. Finally, I asked her,“Why do you think you’re doing something wrong?” “Because I’m not getting what you said I should get,”she replied with some confusion.
Her response shocked me. I had not told her what she“should get”, but we had discussed some published hypotheses(假说) several weeks earlier. On seeing the research data that did not fit these predictions, I recognized that she had a new finding and came to change my hypotheses. But she was interpreting her results as a mistake. With almost four years of a college science major behind her, this student still had the common misunderstanding that science is a boring exercise in proving something we already know to be true.
But how can this happen? Throughout school, science is often described in textbooks as a series of“known”facts and figures; for example, DNA is a double helix; earthquakes occur at plate boundaries, etc. Unfortunately, the process by which these discoveries were made and how they fit into scientific progress are often ignored in the classroom. These details help show the nature of scientific discoveries and the tails help show the nature of scientific discoveries and the skepticism(质疑) that goes with new discoveries before they are accepted.
Understanding science is more than memorizing that DNA is a double helix. It is to have the ability to take in new information on diet, exercise, or disease and apply it to our own lives. Understanding the process of science and scientific problem-solving can help us make better decisions every day.
小题1:The student thought her research project had gone wrong because       .
A.she was not making progress
B.her teacher told her so
C.she couldn’t get enough data
D.she had some unexpected findings
小题2:How did the writer feel when he found out the reason for the student’s confusion?
A.Confused.B.Surprised.C.Excited.D.Pleased.
小题3:What is to blame for the student’s misunderstanding about science?
A.Her own carelessness.
B.Her teacher’s lack of experience.
C.The method of science education.
D.The publication of some wrong hypotheses.
小题4:What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A.The meaning of understanding science.
B.How to use known facts.
C.The best way to make scientific discoveries.
D.How to use scientific knowledge in daily life.
The Chinese word “Shanzhai” means a small mountain village, but now it becomes an accepted name for fakes (假货), after “Shanzhai Cell-phones” produced by small workshops in southern China became popular in the mainland market over the past two years.
Besides “Shanzhai” electronic products, there are “Shanzhai” movies, “Shanzhai” stars and even a “Shanzhai” Spring Festival Gala (联欢晚会), a copy of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year’s Eve.
“Shanzhai” has become a culture of its own, meaning anything that imitates something famous.
In Chongqing, “Shanzhai” version “Bird’s Nest” and “Water Cube” woven by farmers with bamboo attract wide attention from tourists. Both are copies of the famous Olympic buildings in Beijing.
A literature critic said that taking the “Shanzhai” Gala as an example, when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience, the“Shanzhai” version appears timely to attract people. “Although it is often connected with poor techniques and operation, ‘Shanzhai’ culture meets the psychological needs of common people and could be a comfort to their minds,” he said.
To the mainstream (主流的) culture, the rise of “Shanzhai” culture is a challenge and a motivation (动力). People believe different kinds of cultures developing together is a perfect situation and it is for the public to choose.
小题1:The Chinese word “Shanzhai” may have started with ______.
A.Spring Festival GalaB.electronic products
C.fake cell-phones D.Olympic buildings
小题2:According to the passage, “Shanzhai” culture refers to ______.
A.the action that a person imitates famous people
B.products with poor techniques and quality
C.those similar names to famous brands
D.anything that imitates something famous
小题3:We can infer that the mainstream culture ______.
A.may develop faster because of the challenge of “Shanzhai” culture
B.is the challenge of “Shanzhai” culture
C.will be replaced by “Shanzhai” culture
D.is held back by “Shanzhai” culture
_____小题1:Susan is a big eater. She usually has a lot at every meal. So she wonders whether she could only eat less for the first meal of a day to lose weight.
_____小题2:Tina is a fat girl who doesn’t like exercise much. She just wants to lose weight by eating less but not doing exercise.
_____小题3:Maggie is a busy office lady. She usually has to work overtime every day. So she could only have her dinner late at night. She wants to be slimmer so that she could be much more attractive.
_____小题4: Judy is a fashionable designer. She hopes to have a slim shape as models. She usually doesn’t have any regular meal, but has some snacks when she is hungry.
A.If you eat less for breakfast, you have a lower chance of losing weight. Breakfast is important. It gives the body sufficient energy to sustain itself through the morning, and it also stimulates metabolic (新陈代谢) activity in the body. Metabolism is what consumes fat and what makes us slimmer. So, don’t forget to eat something for the breakfast.
B.If you ate your last meal right before going to bed, the calories accumulated from this meal could be twice the amount accumulated from a same meal if you ate it another time during the day.
C.Many people stop doing exercise when they eat less. When you do this, your body will burn less fat. So even if people take in less calories, they get rid of less too. The balance is then unchanged.
D.People gain fat not from the food they eat, but from the number of calories in the food. For example, a bunch of vegetables has just one tenth the calories contained in a small bit of chocolate cake. So make sure you have adequate regular meals, but firmly say no to various snacks, milk tea or even instant noodles.
There are many stories about people who did not let age stop them in the pursuit of their goals. I’m sure you have heard of recent 70-year-old college graduates, or teenagers who are 1 of many useful things or owners of companies. Actually, it can be done; it just 2 your attitude.
Michael had wanted to run his own business from an early age, but he was 3 a big risk taker. After many years of working for others, he put a business plan together and was about to make the 4 , but his friends told him that at 45 he was too 5 to start his own construction business. They thought it was a young man’s business while Michael needed a steady income to support his family. Michael was discouraged. 6 many of his friends worked in the very field that he was considering starting his business in, he 7 that they knew what was best, so he decided to give up his 8 . But his wife told him that he was foolish to do so. They discussed it and Michael 9 that he’d been using his age as a(n) 10 instead of as an advantage.
Have you put off a goal 11 age or another limiting factor? Does the limiting 12really have as much influence as you think? Age is just a number and each challenge is an opportunity. Your attitude 13 . You’re not too old to try something 14 and never too old to give up on your dreams. They may 15 a bit of adjustment, but if you want something enough, believe in yourself and your desires will have no bounds.
