12、 research published earlier this year showing that returning adult children trigger a significant decline in their parents quality of life and wellbeing.The young adults taking part in the study were “more positive than might have been expected about moving back homethe shame is reduced as so many o

13、f their peers are in the same position, and they acknowledged the benefits of their parents financial and emotional support. Daughters were happier than sons, often slipping back easily into teenage patterns of behaviour, the study found.Parents on the whole were more uncertain, expressing concern a

14、bout the likely duration of the arrangement and how to manage it. But they acknowledged that things were different for graduates today, who leave university with huge debts and fewer job opportunities.The families featured in the study were middle-class and tended to view the achievement of adult in

15、dependence for their children as a “family project”. Parents accepted that their children required support as university students and then as graduates returning home, as they tried to find jobs paying enough to enable them to move out and get on the housing ladder.“However”, the study says, “day-to

16、-day tensions about the prospects of achieving different dimensions of independence, which in a few extreme cases came close to conflict, characterised the experience of a majority of parents and a little over half the graduates”.Areas of disagreement included chores, money and social life. While pa

17、rents were keen to help, they also wanted different relationships from those they had with their own parents, and continuing to support their adult children allowed them to remain close.1、What is the finding of the previous research?ABoomerang children made their parents happier.BThe parents were lo

But when the grassland on the National Mall in Washington, DCwas replaced, it offered scientists the opportunity to study changes in the soil beneath.The work focused on the bacteria present in

31、 the soil. To the researchers surprise, the communities of microbes did not change a lot before and after the replacement. These communities in the soil are known as the soil microbiome (微生物群).“My lab is interested in how microbes can move around in the environment , and how they change and adapt as

32、 a result of this movement,” explains Jo Anne Crouch, the lead author of the study. “We thought that the new imported turf (草皮) from New Jersey would introduce different communities of bacteria to the National Mall. However, we found that they werent significantly different.”Crouchs work focused on

33、turf grass ，defined as a large area of green grass. It is made up of the grass, its roots, and the soil and microbes found with them.Think of the soil microbiome as similar to the collection of microbes found in the human body. When the microbes are out of balance , it can make someone sick. Crouch

34、says its the same for the soil microbiome. Many of the worst diseases in crops or other environments are linked with changes in the soil microbiome.Additionally, Crouch says that even though the changes between the soils were small, scientists are also starting to appreciate that sometimes a really

35、important microbe is a rare one. This means it would be hard to observe but could greatly affect how the groups function as a whole. “Agricultural areas and other natural spaces are highly and easily hurt by negative changes,” she says. “Microbiomes offer an almost entirely new opportunity to influe

36、nce interactions among plants and microbes to improve plant productivity and health. ”1、Why did the researchers feel surprised when they focused on the bacteria in the soil?AMore bacteria appeared in the soil.BMicrobes were replaced obviously.CSoil microbiome almost remained stable.DThe soil microbi

37、omes damaged the environment.2、By studying the turf grass , what did Crouch and her team find?AMicrobes grew faster in their own community.BSoil microbiomes were different in different places.CTurf grass adapted to the environment nearby very soon.DSimilar communities of bacteria were brought by tur

38、f grass.3、Why did the author mention the microbes in the human body?ATo indicate the two play a similar role.BTo prove they are both the causes of diseases.CTo examine the environments people live in.DTo analyze the changes of human microbes.4、What does Crouch mean in the last paragraph?AMicrobes ar

39、e still as hard to observe as before.BStudies on microbiomes can be beneficial to agriculture.CScientists are still puzzled about the effect of microbiomes.DToo many microbiomes in the soil mean no harm to plants.24（8分） Everyone knows about straight-A students. We see them frequently in TV situation

40、 comedies and in movies like Revenge of the Nerds. They get high grades, all right, but only by becoming dull laborers, their noses always stuck in a book. They are not good at social communication and look clumsy while doing sports.How, then, do we account for Domenica Roman or Paul Melendres?Roman

41、 is on the tennis team at Fairmont Senior High School. She also sings in the choral group, serves on the student council and is a member of the mathematics society. For two years she has maintained As in every subject. Melendres，a freshman at the University of New Mexico，was student body president a

43、llege-level courses.How do super-achievers like Roman and Melendres do it？Brains arent the only answer. Top grades dont always go to the brightest students，declares Herbert Walberg，a professor of education at the University of Illinois at Chicago，who has conducted major studies on super-achieving st

44、udents. Knowing how to make the most of your innate（天生的）abilities counts for more. Much more.”In fact，Walberg says，students with high IQ sometimes dont do as well as classmates with lower 1Q. For them，learning comes too easily and they never find out how to get down.Hard work isnt the whole story，ei

45、ther. Its not how long you sit there with the books open，said one of the many straight-A students we interviewed.
