13．Nowadays，with the busy working hours，parents have no time left to spend with their children．However，spending time with children is of extreme importance．Giving some time for children will play an important role in their development．Therefore，it is a must for parents to spend time with children．Here are some tips for parents which will help them spend time with their little wonder．

As is often the case，when people are attending meetings，having meals or waiting buses，you can always find them addicting to their phones，completely ignoring others．
This is really a commonly phenomenon（现象） in our life．The reason is why smart phones nowadays can be used for people to play mobile games and kept in touch with friends through QQ and WeChat．Therefore，too much exposure（接触） to phones are bad for people in terms of health．Moreover，people which lose themselves in phones fail to communicate well with those around them．
As far as I am concerned，people should wisely make the use of their phones．They also need to care more about their family and friend rather than mobile phones．
4．In a computer age，a broadband Internet connection is very popular now．Whether cable or mobile broadband，today's connections are many times faster than those in the early days．Videos play smoothly，complex websites load quickly，and files download much faster than ten years ago．And the files are much bigger too．
There's a hidden problem：You have to live near enough to a major city to get broadband Internet．If you don't，it's slow dial-up access for you．And for those living really far out，there may be no Internet access at a11．
Technology experts often talk about the"last mile"problem，which refers to the difficulty of bringing Internet access to remote locations．In cities and suburbs（郊区），it's relatively easy to provide access for everyone．It is much more difficult to deliver access to those living far from cities，especially in developing countries．Internet service providers．for their part，have been reluctant to provide access to sparsely（稀疏地）populated areas．The handful of Internet users they would reach wouldn't cover the expense．
But every year，technological advancements allow of more and more Internet users．Most broadband connections today run over existing cable TV and telephone lines although these technologies aren't available everywhere．
Some companies have delivered the Internet over standard power lines．Advancements in cheaper more efficient fiber optics cables（光纤电缆）promise to bring extremely fast Internet connections to more users．Still．the"last mile"problem remains hard to deal with．There will always be somewhere that doesn't have an affordable broadband connection．But someday that might not matter．If the rapid progress in cell phone technology is any indication，it may not be too long before an Internet connection simply follows you wherever you go．
29．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？C
A．Internet connections have been popular everywhere．
B．Internet service providers are willing to care about rural（农村的）customers．
C．The problem of Internet access hasn't been completely dealt with
D．Computer can't become popular in developing countries．
30．Paragraph 4mainly tells us that technological advancementsD．
A．make TV and telephone available everywhere
B．bring great change to people's everyday life
C．bring faster Internet connections to users
D．make it possible for more people to use the Internet
31．What may eventually settle the"last mile"problem？B
A．The broadband connection's getting faster．
B．The rapid progress in cell phone technology．
C．More and more Internet connections．
D．More and more Internet users
32．The best title for this passage may beA．
A．Internet Connection Problems  
B．Internet Connections Need Improving
C．Progress in Internet Connections 
D．Internet Connections Today．
1．You feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving．If you give and give without making time to fill your own needs，then it's likely you will burn out，or feel upset．When you take and take without giving anything back，you never feel fulfilled，so you are always searching for ways to fill the void in your life．
The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving is to know and then live by your values．I break values up into two groups which I call being and having values．Your being values are the character traits of the ideal person you would like to be．I suggest to my clients that they choose three being values that they are willing to make a commitment to live by．An example of some being values are：kind，loving，generous，inspirational，peaceful，wise and even powerful．By acting on these values you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by being a positive role model．Mastering being these character traits becomes your life purpose．
Your having values are the feelings you need to create in order to be happy．These could be companionship，achievement，support，being valued or financial security．This is what you receive．You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life．
When you make a commitment to live by your being values，it becomes easier to make conscious choices rather than reactionary ones．If your usual pattern is to talk about your problems，you could choose to think and act like a calm person．A calm person might go for a walk，meditate（沉思），or set a time limit before responding．If your usual pattern is to worry，you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person．In other words，you would act like the person you choose to be-this is the key to personal power．
When you choose to act on your values，you not only feel good about yourself，you reinforce（加强）your chosen beliefs．Over time acting in this way changes how you see the world，and in turn the way other people think of you．

60．The main purpose of this passage is toC．
A．persuade the readers to make a commitment
B．explain to the readers what personal values are
C．inform the readers how to be truly happy
D．instruct the readers how to make wise choices
61．According to the text，living by your being values，you wouldB．
A．gain a lot of power B．form positive personality
C．seek all human virtues D．fill your own needs
62．The underlined word"void"in Paragraph 1meansA．
A．a feeling of emptiness    B．an absence of one's mind
C．a break of continuity     D．a state of confusion
63．What can be inferred from the text？B
A．Having values are better than being values．
B．A calm person does not choose to complain．
C．The way other people think of you decides who you are．
D．A responsible person does not care about financial security．
8．Animals are considered to be endangered if the species is close to extinction throughout all or most of its environment．Animals become endangered for a variety of reasons．
Some animals become endangered when their habitats contain resources for humans．For example，commercial forest cutting in the Amazon Rainforest has seriously reduced the population of many animal species and lead to the extinction of other groups．Land itself is an important resource to humans since it provides us with living space，and when people replace animal habitats with human habitats，it can lead to larger loss of natural species．
Commercial and industrial operations may reduce land or water for animals and pollute their environment．Due to water pollution，the baiji，a fresh water dolphin native to China，was declared extinct，meaning it's unlikely the population can recover．Even noise pollution from human activities can lead to the disorder of animal behavior．
Another cause that makes animals become endangered is over-fishing or over-hunting．Over-hunting whales led to near extinction of many species of whales．
The introduction of a non-native species to a habitat may make animals become endangered．The native species may not defend against a new one，and the effects can be dangerous．In Australia，the introduction of the common house cat led to the extinction of the red-fronted parakeet and has seriously damaged the populations of several small animals．
Introduced species can also bring new diseases with them．As a result，animals become endangered．Native animals may not have the power to fight against non-native diseases，and population levels can suffer．Another cause of disease is human-introduced chemicals．The use of DDT is believed to be one of the leading causes in driving the California Condor to near extinction．
When animals become endangered，the entire food chain can be affected．For example，in 2008 disease seriously harmed the honeybee，which is largely responsible for pollinating（授花粉）  plants，including many fruits and vegetables．Without their pollination，a very large part of the human diet could be reduced．In fact，if the honeybee should become extinct，our life would be affected and billions of dollars would be lost．Therefore，many people argue that when animals become endangered it is in man's own self-interest to protect them．

61．The passage is mainly aboutD．
A．ways of protecting animals'habitats
B．effects caused by species endangerment
C．dangers of bringing in non-native species
D．reasons why animals become endangered
62．Which of the following examples shows that environmental pollution may cause species endangerment？B
A．The extinction of the whales．
B．The extinction of the red-fronted parakeet．
C．The decreasing population of the dolphin．
D．The effect of the honeybee on the human diet．
63．Why is it dangerous to introduce a non-native species to a habitat？A
A．Native species are likely to die from the new diseases．
B．It's hard for non-native species to survive．
C．Non-native species will take up more space．
D．Native species are so powerful for non-native species．
64．The California Condor is in danger of dying out because ofB．
A．loss of habitat                                                       
B．harmful chemicals
C．forest cutting                                                        
D．unfamiliar diseases
65．We can infer from the last paragraph thatD．
A．humans are to blame for species extinction
B．small animals mean little to the whole food chain
C．protection of the honeybee has cost billions of dollars
D．humans protect animals for the benefit of themselves．
18．Tourism has the power to bring jobs and economic development to popular destination（目的地），but how should travelers decide where to spend their money？Are some countries more deserving of visitors'dollars than others？
That't the idea behind the 10-destination list put together by San Francisco-based non-profit Ethical（有道德的）Traveler，which，since 2006，has published an annual guide to the World's Best Ethical Destinations in the developing world．
"Instead of publishing countries for doing bad things，"said Jeff Greenwald，executive director of Ethical Traveler，"we're trying to offer a favor，rewarding countries in the developing world that are really trying to do the right thing．"
So which countries are the most ethical？For 2013，the winners are Barbados，Cape Verde，Costa Rica，Ghana，Latvia，Lithuania，Mauritius，Palau，Samoa and Uruguay．
Those 10countries scored highest in three main areas：social welfare，environmental protection and human rights．
Greenwald explained that countries must have a good tourism infrastructure（基础建设）to make the list，but the non-profit Ethical Traveler also uses the list to promote（提倡）some under-visited places that can be a role model for other countries in their region．For example，Latvia earned high marks for improving its environmental efforts and strong human rights record，and the country's parks and nature reserves make for a great off-the-beaten-path ecotourism trip．
In addition to just visiting these countries，travelers should aim to spend their money in locally-owned business，Greenwald said，to ensure their financial support stays in the country they're visiting．However，that requires a well-maneged tourism infrastructure．While one could argue those poor places need the money even more，tourism can put pressure on countries that face such challenges．
Erica Avrami，research and education director at the World Monuments Fund（WMF） said that a list of ethical destinations is"a wonderful idea"，the idea of being ethical goes both ways．"There's also a certain responsibility on the part of the traveler to make sure their own footprint is as minimal as possible，"she said．

72．The passage mainly aims toA．
A．promote ethical destinations
B．encourage ecotourism trips
C．speed up the development of tourism
D．discuss which countries are ethical destinations
73．According to the fifth paragraph Latvia can make the list partially for its
C．
A．good tourism infrastructure          B．regular ecotourism trip
C．strong human rights record           D．good social welfares
74．According to the passage，which of the following is TRUE？D
A．Tourism fails to help develop local economy and provide jobs．
B．All the destinations should equally share the money spent by visitors．
C．Ethical Traveler punishes the developing countries for doing wrong things．
D．Ethical Traveler rewards the developing countries for doing the right thing．
75．In the eyes of Erica Avrami，B．
A．being ethical is not actually a wonderful idea
B．being ethical depends on both travelers and destinations
C．travelers are advised to travel as far as possible
D．travelers should leave as much footprint as possible．
5．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．
61．From the first two paragraphs we learn that．B
 A．the research has been carried out for five years
 B．self-control in kids tends to determine their future

 B．scientists know well why some children have better self-control
 C．self-control in childhood has nothing to do with criminal activity
 D．willpower as a child really influences people's chances of adulthood

 A．Self-control cannot be taught in schools．
 B．The study is restricted within few participants．
 C．It's never too late to deal with self-control problems．
