We should show respect to everybody, especially our elders because they are ahead of us — in age, in wisdom and maturity, in experience and education. Our 36 have done a lot for us, directly or indirectly and most of us 37 everything to their kindness and love. When we 38 them respect, whether it is by bowing to them, or 39 them with a smile, or offering them any help they need, it is one way of 40 our own love and gratitude to them. 41 , elders have also been through all the years you are 42 and know a little more about the world than you do. It is 43 that you do not agree with the belief of your elders, but this is nothing new. All younger generations have always 44 with their elders and it is these differences that bring changes in human 45 . However much you disagree with them, give them credit for their 46 . With changing times and 47 influences, youngsters no longer know what is interpreted as disrespect to elders. Youngsters should 48 express their views and if there are arguments, they should not 49 their voices. If there is no space on sofas or chairs, children will immediately 50 their places, and sit on the carpet. In buses and trains, youngsters are 51 to give up their places to older people. This is not a 52 of who has more rights. It is simply that those who are younger have the strength to bear 53 , or tolerate unpleasantness, so it is natural to show consideration to those who are older and perhaps at a 54 disadvantage. When you do simple things as a mark of respect, elders become 55 that youngsters care for them, and they respond with affection and kindness. 1.A. youngsters B. elders C. parents D. juniors 2. A. devote B. owe C. pay D. contribute 3.A. show B. explain C. exhibit D. point 4. A. greeting B. receiving C. declaring D. showing 5. A. expressing B. describing C. sending D. suggesting 6.A. However B. Therefore C. Besides D. Though 7.

A. community B. organization C. society D. public 11.A. experience B. reality C. emotion D. information 12. A. cultural B. special C. environmental D. position 13.A. quietly B. slightly C. silently D. coldly 14. A. rise B. raise C. support D. force 15.A. give away B. get rid of C. give up D. send out 16.

Mistreat(虐待) your animals and someone might take them from you. Allen (not his real name) is driving north out of Virginia in the middle of the night，with stolen property in the back of his van.But Allen isn’t a criminal—in fact he normally would never dream of breaking the law. The “property” he stole is a dog he calls Flash.Allen doesn’t particularly want Flash in fact，in a few hours he’ll drop him off at a stranger’s house and never see him again.“I couldn’t just stand by and do nothing，”he explains.“The owner was plainly neglecting (忽视) the dog，but the police wouldn’t do anything about it.” For over a year，Flash had been tied to a tree in front of someone’s house.“He was sick and weak，”says Allen.“More than once I saw the owner kick him for no reason at all.”Allen had repeatedly tried to get the owner to take better care of the animal，or to give it away to someone who would.Finally，he took matters into his own hands—in the dead of night，he took Flash off his chain and drove away with him. An hour later，Flash had a new license and he_was_treated_by_a_veterinarian_who_knew_better_than_to_ask_questions. Pictures of the dog were put up on animal rescue websites，asking for someone to adopt the dog.A couple in New York offered to take the dog，and animal lovers in states along the way agreed to provide transportation. Nobody can say for sure how many animals like Flash are “rescued” every year；receiving stolen property is a crime，so rescuers tend to stay in the shadows.But a growing number of empty collars are because of their work as more and more animals find their way to loving homes. 1.Why did Allen steal the dog? A．He liked the dog very much. B．He wanted to stop the dog being treated badly. C．He is a criminal who likes stealing dogs. D．Someone ordered him to do that. 2.What had Allen ever done for the dog before stealing him? A．Finding a new owner for him. B．In the dead of night，taking him off his chain and drove away with him. C．Kicking him for no reason at all. D．Asking the owner to treat the dog better or give it to someone else. 3.How did Allen help the dog find a new owner? A．By putting advertisements on TV. B．By asking the Animals Protection Association for help. C．By asking for help on the Internet. D．By putting up signs on the street. 4.What can we infer from the underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph? A．The veterinarian had treated many animals that were mistreated by their owners. B．The veterinarian had once stolen some animals like Flash before. C．The veterinarian was Allen’s friend. D．The veterinarian was a learned man.

When I was small and my grandmother died I couldn’t understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying. So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that crying does so, too. Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional (情感的) health, and crying seems to be helpful. Study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying. Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and more friendly and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don’t even know we’re very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them. Just as crying can be healthy, not crying — holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering — can be bad for physical health. Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don’t fight it. It’s a natural — and healthy — emotional response (反应). 1.Why didn’t the author cry when her grandmother died? A. Because her father did not want her to feel too sad. B. Because she did not love her grandmother. C. Because she was too shy to cry at that time. D. The author doesn’t give the explanation. 2. It can be inferred from the text that ______. A. there are two ways to keep healthy B. crying does more good to health than laughing C. crying and laughing play the same roles D. emotional health has a close relationship to physical health 3.According to the author, which of the following statements is TRUE? A. Crying is the best way to get help from others. B. Fighting back tears may cause some health problems. C. We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry. D. We must cry if we want to reduce pressure. 4.What might be the most suitable title for the text? A. Power of Tears B. How to Keep Healthy C. Why Do We Cry D. A New Scientific Discovery

Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy．They feel heavy pressures from their parents to do well in school．Most students are always being told by their parents to study harder so that they can have a wonderful life．Though this may be good ideas for those very bright students，it can have very bad results for many students who are not quick enough at learning． Unfortunately，a number of students killed themselves．Others are after comfort in using drugs．Some do bad things with trouble-makers and turn to crime．Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have disappointed their parents．Such students feel that they are less important and leave school before they have finished their study． It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any way．Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers' work to help their children．To make matters worse, a lot of parents send their children to special school called juku-cram schools．These schools are open during the evening and on weekends, and their only purpose is to prepare students to pass exams, they do not try to educate students in any real sense of the real world. It thus comes as a shock to realize that almost three quarters of the junior or high school population attend these cram schools． Ordinary Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students' hair to their clothes and things in their school bag．Child psychologists now think that such strict rules often lead to a feeling of being unsafe and being unable to fit into society．They regard the rules as being harmful to the development of each student．They believe that no sense of moral values is developed and that students are given neither guidance nor training in becoming good citizens． 1.A lot of Japanese students are unhappy at school because A．they work very hard B．they find they can't do well at school C．they feel unimportant D．they are under too much pressure 2.Because of their failure at school, some students take drugs to A．kill themselves B．seek comfort C．disappoint their parents D．make trouble 3.What should be the best title of the passage? A．Students' Pressure B．Students' Problems C．The Negative Impact(影响) of Japanese Education D．The Trouble in Japanese Schools 4.In juku-cram schools students ． A．are taken good care of by the teachers B．feel no pressure C．are trained to pass exams D．can learn a lot of useful things 5.In ordinary Japanese schools， ． A．there are strict rules B．students feel safe C．students can do anything D．learning is not important
