题目内容

20.In the fall of 1985,1 was a bright-eyed girl heading to Howard University,aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere.Twenty-one years later I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.
  My grandma,an amazing woman,graduated from college at the age of 65.She was the first in our family to reach that goal.But one year after I started college,she developed cancer.I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her.It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.
  Then I got married with another dream:building my family with a combination of adopted and biological children.In 1999,wc adopted our first son.To lay eyes on him was fantastic-and very emotional.A year later came our second adopted boy.Then followed son No.3.In 2003,1 gave birth to another boy.
You can imagine how fully occupied I became,raising four boys under the age of 8.Our home was a complete zoo-a joyous zoo.Not surprising,I never did make it back to college full-time.But I never gave up on the dream either.I had only one choice:to find a way.That meant taking as few as one class each semester.
  The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys.They often wanted me to stay home with them.There certainly were times I wanted to quit,but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.
  In 2007,1 graduated from the University of North Carolina.It took me over 21 years to get my college degree!
  I am not special,just single-minded.It always struck me that when you're looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge,but when you're in the midst of it,it just seems normal.Everything you want won*t arrive in your life on one day.It's a process.Remember:little steps add up to big dreams.

5.阅读下面的短文,请根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求).
  In a study likely to make school staff amazed,U.S.researchers said that chewing gum may help academic performance in teenagers rocket to a higher level.
  Many US schools ban chewing gum because children often dispose of the sticky gum under chairs or tables.But a team found that students who chewed gum during math class had higher scores on a standardized math test after 14 weeks and better grades at the end of the term than students in the class who did not chew gum.
"For the first time we've been able to show in a real-life kind of situation that students did perform better when they were allowed to chew,"said Gil Leveille,a researcher."Wrigley has gotten feedback (反馈)from many of its gum customers who say chewing gum helps them stay focused."
   The researchers studied four math classes or 108 students aged 13 to 16 years old from a school.About half got free Wrigley's sugar-free gum to chew during class,homework and tests.They chewed at least one stick of gum 86 percent of the time they were in math class and 36 percent of the time they were doing homework.The other half went without.After 14 weeks,the gum chewers had a three percent increase in their math scores on the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills achievement test.
   Another Wrigley-funded study found that college students in a lab who were given difficult computer tasks had lower levels of the stress when they were chewing gum compared to when they were not.Leveille said he thinks chewing gum helps reduce stress so students can do their best work.While he is aware that many schools have a dim view of students'chewing gum in class,he hopes the findings may change that a bit."It's not a matter of chewing.It's a matter of gum disposal,"Leveille said,adding that that can be overcome by teaching proper disposal behaviors.
71.What does the underlined word"rocket"mean?(No more than 3 words)To achive quickly.
72.Why is chewing gum forbidden in many U.S.schools?(No more than 10 words)Because the students often throw the sticky gum under chairs or tables.
73.What feedback has Wrigley gotten about chewing gum according to the passage?(No more than 5 words)It helps stay focused.
74.What does Leveille think of the effects of gum-chewing?(No more than 15 words)Chewing gum helps reduce stress so students can do best of their work.
75.Do you agree that ban on chewing gum in class should be removed?Why or why not?(No more than 20 words)Yes,I do.because chewing gum help students focus on study and reduce stress.
No,I donot.because chewing gum may disturb the academic atmosphere of class and gum chewers may throw gum sticks here and there..
