10、（6分）When your child lies to you, it hurts. As parents, it makes us angry and we take it personally. We feel like we can never trust our child again. Why does lying cause such anger, pain and worry for parents?Parents are understandably very afraid of their children getting hurt and getting into trou

11、ble, but they have very little protection against these things as they send their kids out into the word. Kids learn from other kids and from external media, and this makes parents feel unsafe because they cant control the information and ideas that their children are exposed to.When your kid lies,

12、you start to see him as “sneaky（卑鄙的）”, especially if he continues to lie to you. You feel that hes going behind your back. You begin to think that your kids are “bad”. Because, certainly, if lying is bad, liars are bad. Its just that simple. Parents need to make their kids responsible for lying. But

13、 the mistake parents make is that they start to blame the kid for lying. Its considered immoral to lie. But when you look at your kid like hes a sneak, its a slippery slope （滑坡谬误）that starts with “You lie” and ends up at “Youre a bad person”.Kids know lying is forbidden. But they dont see it as hurt

14、ful. So a kid will say, “I know its wrong that I eat a sugar snack when Im not supposed to. But who does it hurt?” “I know its wrong that I trade my dried fruit for a Twinkie. But it doesnt really hurt anybody. I can handle it. Whats the big deal?” Thats what the kid sees.So I think that parents hav

15、e to assume that kids are going to tell them lies, because theyre immature and they dont understand how hurtful these things are. Theyre all drawn to excitement, and theyll all have a tendency to distort(歪曲) the truth because theyre kids.1、Why do parents worry about their kids and feel unsafe?ANobod

16、y trusts their kids in the world because of lying.BLying always causes their kids to get hurt or get into trouble.CTheir kids are exposed to outside world without their control.DThey cant protect their kids from other kids and external media.2、Whats the authors attitude towards parents seeing kids a

17、s bad if they lie?AImmoral. BNegative.CSupportive. DDifferent.3、The underlined word “they” really refers to _.Aparents Btheir childrenCother kids Dbad things4、How do parents react to kids lying?ATaking no notice of it.BBlaming them immediately.CPretending to be angry and educate them.DAccept it but

18、make them responsible for it.22（8分） Any foreigner who has tried to learn Chinese can tell how hard it is to master the tones required to speak and understand. And anyone who has tried to learn to play the violin or other instruments can report similar challenges.Now researchers have found that peopl

19、e with musical training have an easier time learning Chinese. Writing in the online edition of Nature Neuroscience，researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(音调).One of the studys authors，Nina Kraus，sai

20、d the findings suggested that studying music “actually tunes our sensory system”.This means that schools that want children to do well in languages should hesitate before cutting music programs，Dr. Kraus said. She said music training might also help children with language problems.Mandarin(普通话)speak

21、ers have been shown to have a more complex encoding(编码) of pitch patterns in their brains than English speakers do. This is because in Mandarin and other Asian languages，pitch plays a central role. A singlesyllable word can have several meanings depending on how it is intoned.For this study，the rese

22、archers looked at 20 nonChinese speaking volunteers，half with no musical background and half who have studied an instrument for at least six years.As they were shown a movie，the volunteers also heard an audio tape of the Mandarin word “mi” in three of its meanings:squint，bewilder and rice. The resea

23、rchers recorded activities in their brain stems to see how well they were processing the sounds. Those with a music background showed much more brain activities in response to the Chinese sounds.The lead author of the study，Patrick CM.Wong，said it might work both ways. It appears that native speaker

24、s of tonal languages may do better at learning instruments.1、When learning Chinese，a foreigner will find _.Ahe has a difficult time learning music at the same timeBhe has an easier time learning music at the same timeCit is hard to master the tones required to speak and understandDit is easy to use

25、the brain to help him discover changes in pitch2、Why does Chinese learning have something to do with music training?ABecause there is the same difficulty in learning Chinese and music.BBecause skills to learn the two make use of the same parts of the brain.CBecause music training might help people w

28、cardiovascular (心血管的) disease. But recent studies are casting some doubt on that long-held learning. Science now says it depends on your age and drinking habits.A 2013 study of nearly 2 million British with no cardiovascular risk found that there was still a modest benefit in moderate drinking, espe

29、cially for women over 11 who drank five drinks a week. Why that age? Alcohol can influence the substance in the blood in positive ways, experts say, and thats about the age when heart problems begin to occur.Also, a 2014 study found that drinking more than 100 grams of alcohol per weekequal to rough

30、ly seven standard drinks in the United States or five to six glasses of wine in the UKincreases your risk of death from all causes and in turn lowers your life expectancy. Links were found with different forms of cardiovascular disease, with people who drank more than 100 grams per week having a hig

31、her risk of stroke, heart failure.Another 2014 study found that consistently drinking a moderate amount of alcohol, within recommended guidelines, had a protective effect on the heart over time. Unstable drinking habits were associated with a higher risk of heart disease, which the authors reflected

32、 might indicate broader lifestyle changes, such as poor health or stress. Former drinkers were also at greater risk.Overall, however, the latest thinking is that any heart benefit may be outweighed by other health risks, such as high blood pressure, certain cancers and liver damage.Women who drink a

33、re at a higher risk for breast cancer; alcohol contributes about 2% of the overall risk, possibly because it raises certain dangerous hormones in the blood. Drinking can also increase the chance you might develop liver, mouth and oral cancers. One potential reason: Alcohol weakens our immune systems

34、, making us more likely to inflame (发炎)a driving force behind cancer.1、Why does moderate drinking benefit women over 11?AIt helps them live longer than men.BIt reduces the chance of some heart problems.CIt destroys the harmful chemicals in their blood.DIt helps them recover from cardiovascular disea

36、in the UK.3、Who will be at a lower risk according to the 2014 study?AConsistent drinkers with lifestyle changes.BUnstable drinkers with lifestyle changes.CConsistent drinkers within recommended amount of alcohol.DUnstable drinkers within recommended amount of alcohol.4、Which can be the best title fo

It took d

38、ays, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day, either by watching TV or reading newspapers.Newspapers have been a

39、n important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?Firstly, it is important to report new stories

40、. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print completely different stories to those on TV.Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People dont want to read

41、stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be bad news. For example, newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely; instead they print stories about plane accidents.Another factor is also very important in many news stories. Many peo

42、ple are interested in news in foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people, places and events in their own country. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.1、According to the passage

43、, how do people learn about news stories in the world now?AThey carry news stories and tell others from place to place on foot or by horse.BThey tell each other what they have seen with their eyes.CThey watch TV or read newspapers.DThey listen to the radio every day.2、The difference between newspape

44、r stories and TV news reports is that _.Apeople can learn more about the same news story from a newspaperBpeople can read the news story more quickly in a newspaperCpeople can read news stories in other countriesDpeople can read news stories about their own country3、According to the passage, which o

45、f the following can you most possibly watch on TV?AYou often play football with your friends after school.BYour teacher has got a cold.CA tiger in the city zoo has run out and hasnt been caught.DThe bike in front of your house is lost.25（10分）New York City.
