第二部分 阅读理解 （共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分 ）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项 （A、B、C、和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Time out, extra chores and taking away privileges are more useful forms of disciplining (惩戒)naughty children than spanking or hitting, according to a study on Wednesday.
About 94 percent of parents use some form of physical punishment to teach their two-year-olds right from wrong, according to research studies. But psychologists say it could lead to later emotional and behavioral problems.
Even children who were only spanked some of time are more likely to show signs of sadness or have less confidence.
“The key
is to be fair and do the same thing each time. Doing something like hitting a
child that seems cruel at best doesn’t help and can put a child at risk for
problems,” said Dr Paul Frick, of the
“It is better to use other punishments,” he added.
The use
of physical punishment to teach children has long been debated. In countries
such as
Frick and his team, who studied the effects of physical punishment on 98 children, said they couldn’t find any positive effects. Some children learned more from the hitting than what the parent was trying to teach them.
“The key is to have a lot of different forms of punishment depending on the age of the child,” said Frick, who reported his findings in the Journal of Applied Child Psychology.
He recommended time out for younger children and taking away television and electronic toys for older children. Giving extra chores can also get the message across.
Other measures are at least as effective as physical punishment and have less harmful potential consequences.
The researchers kept children whom they thought were at risk of later conduct problems out of the test and an equal number of other children who acted as a control group, to study what measures would be most helpful.
They questioned the parents and the children about positive and negative parenting behavior including the use of physical punishment.
“We got it from both viewpoints,” said Frick.
He added that children on the receiving end of a hit can learn that when they are upset and angry they hit, rather than understanding their behavior was wrong and that they need to do better.
36. According to the passage, why did Dr Frick advise against physical punishment?
A. Because the children will learn their behavior is wrong in time.
B. Because the children may hit people as a solution to problems.
C. Because it is illegal to use physical punishment in certain countries.
D. Because parents think it’s the easiest way to teach kids right from wrong.
37. Which of the following punishments is NOT recommended by Frick and his team?
A. Taking away toys B. Not allowing watching TV
A. C. Switching TV channels D. Doing more housework.
B. 38. What should be kept in mind when disciplining a kid?
C. A. How he or she usually behaves.
D. B. Tell them why they are punished.
E. C. Be fair and stick to the same principle.
F. D. Use different forms of punishment each time.
G. 39. Which of the following statements would Dr Frick agree to?
H. A. Spanking often fails to get the message of the parents across.
I. B. Parents need to praise their children after disciplining them.
J. C. The older a kid is, the fewer forms of punishment there are.
K. D. Many parents use physical punishment because of their own parents.
L. 40. What’s the purpose of the writer to write this article?
M. A. To debate if physical punishment is illegal.
N. B. To introduce how to deal with young kids.
O. C. To order parents not to spank young kids.
P. To talk about how to discipline young kids

On Web sites across the Internet, people can access a variety of information about you. It’s in your interest to be aware of your online reputation and to take the necessary actions to make it what you want it to be.
The first step in protecting or improving your online reputation is to find out what information is already posted on the Internet and to assess the impression it leaves on people. Follow these tips to monitor and evaluate your online reputation:
Play the name game. Begin by typing your first and last name into several popular search engines to see where you are mentioned and in what context.
Example:
Robin Counts
Focus your search. To get more precise (精确的) results, put quotation marks around your name, so that the search engine reads your name as a phrase and not as two or more unrelated words that just happen to appear in the text.
Example:
“Robin Counts”
Search all of your names. If you have ever used a different name, if you use your middle name or initial, if you use a nickname, or if your name is frequently misspelled, search all variations to make sure you don’t miss anything important.
Example:
“Robin Counts”
“Robin J. Counts”
“Robin Counts Jensen”
Be strategic. If your search turns up information about other people who share your name, you can eliminate (消除) many false hits by using keywords. You can add keywords that apply only to you; for example your city, your employer, or a hobby.
Example:
“Robin Counts” “Woodgrove Bank”
“Robin counts”----skydiving
Go blogging. If any of your friends, family members or coworkers have blogs or personal Web pages on social networking sites, check them out from time to time to see if they are writing about you or posting pictures of you.
Be alert. Use the feature provided by some search engines that enables you to receive automatic notification (通知) of any new mention of your name or other personal information.

B. still get other people’s information
C. get only your information
D. get most information about others
48. Which is the correct way to search if you want to eliminate many false hits?

Researchers in the field of psychology have found that one of the best ways to make an important decision, such as choosing a university to attend or a business to invest in, involves the use of a decision worksheet. Psychologists who study optimization (最佳化) compare the actual decision made by people to theoretical ideal decisions to see how similar they are. Proponents (支持者) of the worksheet procedure believe that it will yield optimal, that is, the best decisions. Although there are several variations on the exact format (格式) that worksheets can take, they are all similar in their essential aspects. Worksheets require defining the problem in a clear and concise way and then listing all possible solutions to the problem. Next, the relevant considerations that will be affected by each decision are listed, and the relative importance of each consideration or consequence is determined. Each consideration is assigned a numerical value to reflect its relative importance. A decision is mathematically calculated by adding these values together. The alternative with the highest number of points emerges (出现) as the best decision.
Since most important problems are multifaceted (多方面的)，there are several alternatives to choose from, each with unique advantages and disadvantages. One of the benefits of a pencil and paper decision-making procedure is that it permits people to deal with more variables than their minds can generally comprehend and remember. On the average, people can keep about seven ideas in their minds at once. A worksheet can be especially useful when the decision involves a large number of variables with complex relationships. A realistic example for many college students is the question “What will I do after graduation?” A graduate might seek a position that offers specialized training, pursue an advanced degree, or travel abroad for a year. A decision-making worksheet begins with a concise statement of the problem that will also help to narrow it. It is important to be clear about the distinction between long-range and immediate goals because long-range goals often involve a different decision than short-range ones. Focusing on long-range goals, a graduating student might revise the question above to “What will I do after graduation that lead to successful career?”
51.What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. A tool to assist in making complex decisions.
B. A comparison of actual decisions and ideal decisions.
C. Research on how people make decisions.
D. Differences between long-range and short-range decision making.
52. Of the following steps, which occurs before the others in making a decision worksheet?
A. Listing the consequences of each solution.
B. Calculating a numerical summary of each solution.
C. Deciding which consequences are most important.
D. Writing down all possible solutions.
53. According to decision-making worksheet theory, an optimal decision is defined as one that _____________________.
A. has the fewest variables to consider
B. uses the most decision worksheets
C. has the most points assigned to it
D. is agreed to by the greatest number of people
54. The author develops the discussion in paragraph 1 by means of _____________.
A. describing a process
B. classifying types of worksheets
C. providing historical background
D. explaining a theory
55. The author states that “On the average, people can keep about seven ideas in their minds at once” to explain that _____________________.
A. most decisions involve seven steps
B. human mental capacity has limitations
C. some people have difficulty making minor as well as major decisions
D. people can keep more then seven ideas in their minds with practice

These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care.
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(墓地). On these days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues(烧烤) for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.
Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores.

A possible version
Our athletes have made many achievements in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, which makes all the Chinese excited. Now how to grow up along with Olympic Champions has become a hot topic.
As we know, the Olympic Champions have much in common. First, they go all out to be excellent. Second, they treat others with respect and behave well during the games. Third, faced with one failure after another, they never give up.
How can we become a champion in real life? For one thing, we must set a clear goal, which will inspire us to pursue what we want. For another, a good state of mind is one of the key factors in success. Certainly, it’s very important for us to be sincere to others.
As middle school students, we must learn to deal with stress and build up self-confidence. Besides, we should treasure friendship and try to concentrate on our goals all the time.
