“Few things help an individual more than to place responsibility upon him,and let him know that you trust him.” These words are from the black American educator,Booker Washington. He was saying that,“If you want people to grow up,you have to stop treating them like children.” In America,families are close but children are encouraged to be independent,to make their own decisions,even at a very early age. It’s not unusual for a child of seven to be given an allowance (津贴) every week. The child is encouraged to save some of the money but he or she can spend it on whatever they choose,for example,buying clothes,school supplies or CDs. Some teenagers even have their own credit cards!That’s a big responsibility since even adults are tempted to overspend when they have credit cards(信用卡). From an early age,American children are asked for their opinions and they are included in family decisionmaking. At the dinner table,teenagers will be listened to on any topic,from politics to buying a new family car or where the family will go on vacation. In this way,teenagers are getting practice in becoming individuals:they are learning how to stand on their own two feet. Many Chinese young people are becoming almost as interested as American teens in searching for independence. They want to express those qualities that make them unique human beings. You can see this in the way they dress,the music they listen to and the friends they choose.“Super Girl” Li Yuchun caught the imagination of Chinese teenagers on the “Super Girl” television contest. She was not the traditional “nice,young Chinese girl”.With her short,spiky hair and boylike clothes,she was telling everyone that she was different. She had the courage to be her own person and to stand on her own two feet...and she won! There is an old saying,“Everyone should carefully observe which way his heart draws him and then choose that way with all his strength.” If you do this,step by step,over a period of time,you may find that you have become the person you always wanted to be. 1. The passage is intended to encourage the youth to________. A.save money for useful things B.become independent C.express their great ambitions D.make important decisions 2. A child of seven is given an allowance so that he can______. A.be accepted as a popular guy B.learn to decide how to use money C.overspend money without care D.have school supplies of his own 3. The author implies that many Chinese children________. A.are more independent than Americans B.should become interested in America C.are happy with their present situation D.are not satisfied to be nice,quiet ones 4. The main idea of the last paragraph is________. A.that we should do things step by step B.why we should understand our desires C.what we should plan for our own life D.how we can manage to realize our dreams

Agnes Miller was one of the earliest leaders of the Women’s Liberation Movement in the United States. She was born on a farm in Missouri in 1892. Strangely enough she had a very happy life as a child. She was the only daughter and the youngest child of five. Her parents and her brothers always treated her as their favorite.

Compared to people with bad attitudes,people who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds,according to a new study.“It’s possible that being upbeat helps the body fight illnesses,” says Sheldon Cohen,the study’s lead researcher from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh. In a previous(先前的) study,Cohen and his colleagues put coldcausing viruses into the noses of 334 healthy adults. People who tended to be cheerful and lively were least likely to develop sniffles,coughs,and other cold symptoms. People who showed positive feelings were also less likely to mention symptoms to their doctors,even when medical tests detected those symptoms. Those findings were interesting,but they didn’t prove that a person’s attitude affects whether he or she gets sick. Instead,it was still possible that a person’s underlying personality is what matters. Evidence suggests,for instance,that certain people are naturally more likely to be outgoing and optimistic,with high selfesteem and a sense of control over life. This would mean that who we are,not how we feel,ultimately decides our chances of catching colds. To figure out which mattered more (personality or emotions),the CMU team interviewed 193 healthy adults. The researchers talked to each person over the phone every evening for 2 weeks. At the end of the interviewing period,people got nose drops that contained either cold or flu viruses. Then,each person stayed in an isolated room for 5 or 6 days. The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get infected. Their symptoms,however,differed depending on the types of emotions that they had reported over the previous 2 weeks. Among those who reported good moods and had been infected with the flu virus,for example,28 percent developed coughs and stuffy noses. On the other hand,those symptoms struck 41 percent of people who had been less upbeat. 1. What would be the best title for the passage? A.Smiles Turn away Colds B.An Interesting Way to Beat Colds C.Be Outgoing and Optimistic to Fight Colds D.What Matters More,Personality or Emotions? 2. In the previous study,people who showed positive feelings______. A.didn’t catch colds as often B.developed cold symptoms more slowly C.were less likely to have cold symptoms detected D.were less likely to feel cold symptoms 3. What mainly decides our chances of catching colds according to the new study? A.Personality. B.Selfesteem(自尊). C.Emotions. D.Attitudes. 4. The underlined word “symptoms” probably means________. A.something that causes cold B.something that results in cold C.signs that something exists,especially something bad D.changes in your body or mind that show that you are not healthy

Choosing a nice mountain bike for you is easier than learning how to ride it. Keep these tips in mind: Decide how you are going to use your new mountain bike. Are you a new rider who simply wants to travel outdoors on the weekend,weather permitting?Do you intend to test yourself on the rough roads,every day,rain or shine?Or are you going to use your new mountain bike to ride to and from school or work?Be honest about your intentions,and you’re more than half way toward choosing the right mountain bike for you. Visit your local bike shops. Any good bike shop will stock a wide range of quality mountain bikes in all price points and sizes. Your local bike shops will carry more than one brand of bicycle.
