分析 本文是一段店员Clerk和顾客Mary在鞋店的一段对话．对话涉及了鞋的颜色和价格．

解答 64．Can 考查情态动词．Can I help you？是服务性行业用语，此处意为"我能帮你吗？你想买什么？"，故填Can．
65．shoes 考查名词．根据提示：此段对话的场景设定为在鞋店，可知此处Mary想买双鞋，故填shoes．   
66．color 考查名词．根据下句答语Blue可知，此处是询问什么颜色，用what color，故填color．
67．much 考查代词．根据下句答语Nine dollars指价钱，可知此处是想问价格的，用疑问词用how much，故填much．
68．take 考查动词．根据语境可知此处意为"我要买下这双鞋"，在商店买东西时一般用 I will take them 而不是用I will buy them，故填take．

点评 做对话类的填空题时，一定要认真分析语境，注意上下文的关系，然后根据句子填入适当的内容．

16．From a very early age，some children exhibit better
self-control than others．Now，a new study that began with about 1，000 children in New Zealand has tracked how a child's low self-control can predict poor health，money troubles and even a criminal record in their adult years．
Researchers have been studying this group of children for decades now．They observed the level of self-control the youngsters displayed．Parents，teachers，even the kids themselves，scored the youngsters on measures like"acting before thinking"and"Persistence in reaching goals．"
The study led  by Moffitt of Duke University and colleagues followed 1，000 children from birth to age 32 in Dunedin，New Zealand．
"The children who had the lowest self-control when they were age three to ten，later on had the most health problems in their 30s，"Moffitt said，"and they had the worst financial situation．They were more likely to have a criminal record and to be raising a child as a single parent on a very low income．"Moffitt explained that self-control problems were widely observed，and weren't just a feature of a small group of misbehaving kids．
Moffitt said it's still unclear why some children have better self-control than others，though she said other researchers have found that it's mostly a learned behavior，with relatively little genetic influence．But good self-control can be set to run in familles because children with good self-control are more likely to grow up to be healthy and prosperous parents．But the good news，Moffitt said，is that self-control can be taught by parents，and through school curricula that have been shown to be effective．

17．This week，We talk about the application process for American colleges and universities．This is Part Eight in our Foreign Student Series．Earlier，we explained  how to begin a search for schools by going to one of the American educational advising centers around the world．We also discussed the rules for entering in the United States．（71）F
But if your goal is to come to the United States to study，then it is time to make a list of  colleges of universities that interest you． （72）EDirectors of foreign student admissions say students should apply to at least three schools．
Some students want to attend a small college．Others want to go to a big university．That university in Columbus．Ohio，in the Midwest，has almost fifty-two thousand students．There are students this year from around one hundred fifty countries．Ohio State provides international students with an application on its Web site．（73）BOr you can print the forms and mail them with the payment．
Many colleges and universities have their applications and also their catalogs online．You should start on your applications at least two years before you want to begin studies．（74）ABut answering all the questions is not enough．Another important step is taking admissions tests．The SAT is the college entry test that American high school students most commonly take．（75）CColleges and universities may also require international students to take the TOEFL-the Test of English as a Foreign Language．

A．Completing a college application can take some time．
B．You can pay the application charge online with a credit card．
C．Another one is the ACT．
D．If a really big university appeals to you，then there aye ones like Ohio State．
E．Be sure to choose more than one．
F．And we talked about programs that can be completed online．
G．If you have a general question for our Foreign Student Series，write to special@voanews．com．

The most popular extra classes at my school were piano lessons and drama club．Both classes offered exams students could take．Students with many hobbies sometimes felt （87）more stressed than those without any．But the students with hobbies left school with many extra （88）skills （skill）．
I （89）haven't continued （continue） any of the hobbies I began at school．But I have never regretted （90）taking （take） them．My best friend today is someone I met in my gymnastics class．

15．A job is more than a job，especially to the old．"It's not the money that matters，but the sense of self-worth，"56-year-old Cheng Wonlan said．So，every day Ms Cheng carries a bag of parcels，letters and documents and does her rounds in North Point．She's a courier（快递员）．
Five years ago，Ms Cheng was a nurse at a private clinic．She had worked there for 30years but became jobless when the doctor moved away．It was difficult for her to find another job as a nurse．"People do not trust my ability when they learn how old I am，"she said．After two years of searching，she eventually found another nursing job．But then after two years，she quit．Why？
"My colleagues were young and they didn't understand me because of my age．They often asked me，‘You are so old．What are you working for？'I was very unhappy，"she said．When the rest of her family left for work，she was lonely and bored at home．Then her neighbours told her about Employees'Retraining Board offering retraining courses for older people．These courses are specifically designed to encourage the older people back to work．
"I was interested in courier work．I didn't think my age was a barrier（障碍） because I was fit，"she said．Upon graduating，Ms Cheng was offered a job by a company．But then Ms Cheng was faced with a conflict：she was caught between honour and employment．"I felt embarrassed about carrying and delivering letters and parcels，"she said．It took Ms Cheng 24hours to make up her mind：there was nothing wrong or embarrassing about doing the job．So she went off to work as a courier．
Ms Cheng's employer，Anthony Chong，is delighted with her responsible attitude and said，"I hire older people because they are able and reliable．Age is not an important factor but attitude is．Many old people will not run from difficulties but the young ones will．"

B．are less experienced than the older ones

16．How hard we have all prayed（祈祷） to grow up quickly，and looked forward to the happy days of being a grown-up and enjoying the many interests that a youth should have．?
At last，you have grown up．At least you are no longer a child．They call you"young lady"．You then enjoy the pleasure of being a young lady．You are proud of being a grown-up teenager．People welcome you-this young lady-heartily．You are glad that your prayer has been answered．
But there is always something that troubles you a lot．You say；"Papa and Mama，give me some money please．My pocket money is all gone already．"?
"No"，they say，"your age is a dangerous age．If you have too much money to spend，it won't do you any good．"Then you have to stay at home because you dare not go out with an empty pocket．
Another time you tell your grandma，"Grandma，see，I am a grown-up now．"?
"Good，now，you can sit here and knit （编织） this for me while I go and have a rest．"To show that you are no more a child，you have to sit there the whole afternoon doing the work，which only a grown-up can do．After an hour，you find it hard to do，and give the knitting basket back to your grandma．Your grandma criticizes your work．You hear what she says，"Such a big girl can't do such easy work．"You wish then you were a child again．?
But the fact is，you are growing up，and you can't help it．That's the way it goes!
