11、blem for Yin Qiming.Instead, the 37-year-old Shanghai resident and his daughter divided their vacation between cyberspace and the 8-year-olds other interests.“My daughter has many hobbies and I and her mother respect her choices, so we accompany her to classes she enjoys, such as learning to play th

12、e drums and drawing,” he said.“She loves to play outside with her friends, so she doesnt think the Internet is a must-have thing in her life.”Yin added that he rarely imposes a time limit on his daughters online activity.“She sometimes uses WeChat (a popular instant-messaging tool) on my mobile phon

13、e, but only to contact her mother,” he said. “Once she has her own plans every day and realizes that the internet is just a part of life, she wont become addicted to it.”Li Lin, a primary school teacher from Liaoning province, expressed a similar opinion.“We do some homework online, including reciti

14、ng stories, and the children use the Internet frequently every day of their lives,” she said, noting that the childrens online activity is limited to 30 minutes a day at school.“We should make better use of the Internet to provide children with more knowledge and help them to grow up,” said Li, who

15、has a 10-year-old son.The key to preventing children, especially those at primary and middle schools, from becoming addicted to the Internet is to limit the time they spend online and to ensure that they know cyberspace cannot replace traditional forms of communication, she said.Mao Feizhu, a psycho

16、logist from Fujian province in southeast China, said people overestimate the influence of the internet.“Many people, even some parents, believe the Internet plays a big role in our daily lives, and many things can be completed online, but thats not completely right,” she said.“We can use social appl

17、ications to talk or play basketball games, and even share what we are thinking about, but sometimes its impossible for our emotions to be accurately reflected in this way. What children need is emotional communication and real physical exercise. After all, love cannot be bought on the net,” she said

18、.Perhaps, the best way to stop young netizens spending too much time online is to encourage their other interests but also accompany them when they go online: “We should use the Internet, not become its slaves.1、What bothers lots of the parents today is that their young children _.Aenjoy chatting wi

But for pets new to Marlborough, help is at hand.Marlborough SPCA and the Railway Caf, in Blenheim, have joined forces to help welcome pets and their people to th

23、e region with a fortnightly morning tea. They hope the morning teas will get tails and tongues wagging as well as giving advice on how to make the move smoother.Railway Caf owner Leanne Harris came up with the innovative（创新的） plan as a way to help welcome people to the area. Leanne moved to Marlboro

24、ugh from Auckland two years ago and said she initially struggled to find friends and feel part of the community. “Coming from Auckland I thought people would open their doors and that there would be neighbours calling round with cake. I expected people to come to me and, of course, it wasnt like tha

25、t. I did get lonely. “I hope to save newcomers having to wait as long as I did to feel part of it all. I would like to welcome them to the town.”Free platters of sandwiches, cakes and other goodies will be on offer, for the people, while there will be special handmade yoghurt and banana treats for t

26、he dogs. The morning teas will take place in the covered area at the back of the popular caf beside the railway station off Grove Rd.Leanne said she was happy to devote both her time and effort into giving back to the community and felt the venture was a great fit with the SPCA“Volunteering is such

27、an amazing thing to do and it changed things for me completely, and I met some amazing people with similar interests.”SPCA Op Shop manager Karina Greenall, originally from the United Kingdom, said she also wanted to help. “I can give advice on how to resettle pets, the best parks to go to , where th

31、has been developed in recent years to explain many aspects of willpower. Most of the researchers exploring self-control do so with an obvious goal in mind: How can willpower be strengthened? If willpower is truly a limited resource, as the research suggests, what can be done to make it stay strong?A

32、voiding temptation (诱惑) is an effective method for maintaining self-control, which is called the “out of sight, out of mind” principle. One recent study, for instance, found office workers less attracted to candy in the desk drawer than that on top of their desks, in plain sight.The research suggest

33、ing that we possess a limited reservoir of self-control raises a troubling question. When we face too many temptations, are we to fail? Not necessarily. Researchers dont believe that ones willpower is ever completely exhausted. Rather, people appear to hold some willpower in reserve, saved for futur

34、e demands. The right motivation allows us to tap into those reserves, allowing us to carry on even when our self-control strength has been run down. High motivation might help overcome weakened willpower-at least to a point.Willpower may also be made less vulnerable（脆弱）to being exhausted in the firs

35、t place. Researchers who study self-control often describe it as being like a muscle that gets tired with heavy use. But there is another aspect to the muscle comparison, they say. While muscles become exhausted by exercise in the short term, they are strengthened by regular exercise in the long ter

36、m. Similarly, regular practices of self-control may improve willpower strength.The evidence from willpower-exhaustion studies also suggests that making a list of resolutions on New Years Eve is the worst possible approach. Being exhausted in one area can reduce willpower in other areas, so it makes

37、more sense to focus on a single goal at a time. In other words, dont try to quit smoking, adopt a healthy diet and start a new exercise plan at the same time. Taking goals one by one is a better approach. Once a good habit is in place, Baumeister says, youll no longer need to draw on your willpower

38、to maintain the behavior. Eventually healthy habits will become routine, and wont require making decisions at all.1、From the studies in the passage we learn that .Apeople have unlimited self-controlBhigh motivation ensures ones successCwillpower is hardly completely exhaustedDtoo many temptations of

39、ten lead to failure2、The underlined phrase “tap into” in Paragraph 3 most probably means .Amake use ofBrun out ofCbuildDincrease3、The author compares self control to muscles .Ato prove the long-term effect of willpowerBto show the significance of regular exerciseCto argue that self-control can he ea

41、tation.”24（8分）Scientists have been studying how people use money for long. Now theyre finding some theories may apply to one group of monkeys.Researchers recently taught six monkeys how to use money. They gave the monkeys small metal disks(圆片) that could be used like cash and showed them some yummy

42、apple pieces. The monkeys soon figured out that if they gave one of the disks to a scientist, they d receive a piece of apple in return.If you think that is all the monkeys can figure out, you are wrong. Two researchers, Jake and Allison, acted as apple sellers in the experiments. The monkeys were t

43、ested one at a time and had 12 disks to spend in each experiment. Jake always showed the monkeys one apple piece, while Allison always showed two pieces. But thats not necessarily what they gave the monkeys. The number of apple pieces given for a disk was determined at random.Experiment One: Allison

44、 showed two pieces of apples but gave both pieces only half the time. The other half, she took one piece away and gave the monkey just the remaining piece. Jake, on the other hand, always gave exactly what he showed: one piece for each disk. The monkeys chose to trade more with Allison.Experiment Tw

45、o: Allison continued to sometimes gave two pieces and sometimes one piece. But now, half the time, Jake gave the one apple piece he was showing, and half the time he added a bonus. Guess what? The monkeys chose to trade more with Jake.In the first experiment, the monkeys correctly figured out that i

46、f they traded with Allison, theyd end up with more treats. In the second one, when a monkey received two pieces from Jake, it seemed like again. When Allison gave the monkey only one piece instead of the two she showed, it seemed like a loss. The monkeys preferred trading with Jake because theyd rat

47、her take a chance of seeming to win than seeming to lose.We also sometimes make silly business decisions just to avoid the feeling that were getting less, even when were not. Would you have made the same choices?1、What conclusion might experts draw from the first experiment?AThe monkeys show certain

48、 business sense.BBusiness theories can apply to all monkeys.CPeople are smarter in terms of finance.DIts easy to teach monkeys how to trade.2、What does a bonus in paragraph 5 refer to?AA metal disk.BAn apple piece.CA chance.DA coin.3、Why did the monkeys choose to trade more with Jake in the second e

49、xperiment?ABecause Jake always gave them two apple pieces.BBecause the apple pieces from Jake were yummy.CBecause they didnt like the feeling of losing.DBecause they get more apple pieces from Jake.4、What could be the best title for the passage?APeoples Business Decision: Lose or Gain?BMonekys Busin

50、ess Sense: Smart or Silly?CShopping for Bargain: Same or different?DDisk for Apple: Who to Trade with?25（10分）I remember my childhood summers fondly, as many of us do. Those golden days in which I would leave the house after a still sleepy, leisurely breakfast and come home only for lunch in the midd

51、le of a day spent entirely outdoors. We did not live in town and, thus, playmates were limited to siblings (兄弟姐妹) and the cousins who lived down the road.Our backyard became the playground in which our imaginations would run wildturning those few acres into magical forests, the creek (小溪) into a vio

52、lent river and our trusty dog, Rex, into the many roles of horse, monster and any other creature that we children did not want to play. By the end of the three months of summer break we were sunburned from our hours in the sun, full of the memories of a thousand magical moments and bonded to our sib

53、lings in a way that winters forced hibernation (冬眠) never seemed to connect us.Today, I live on the same acreage that I did as a child. My children have the blessing of having the same grassy patches to scratch their bare feet as they run through it, the same creek to stomp(跺脚)through, and not the s

54、ame dogbut their very own energetic pup to imagine away the days with.However, this is not the same world as it was twenty, thirty years ago. There are screens everywhere in the house to demand attentiontelevisions with hundreds of channels, computers with access to a thousand entertaining sites, ta

55、blets stocked with apps. There is also no longer the expectation of a stretch of an unscheduled three months. Their school friends tell competitive stories of carefully planned vacations, spending time traveling to all of the local attractionsvarious parks, the zoo, the science center, all of the fe

56、stivals which come breezing through town. On the very first day of school they will be asked to list their favorite activities of the summer and no longer are these lists filled with things like finding wood to make a bridge over a creek or a day spent in imaginative play with their siblings. The li

57、sts are now full of trips, overscheduled days and “camps” that no longer offer a stay in nature.Our children have become used to being entertained every minute. In our house, we have limits on electronics and kick the kids outside on a nice day. Even as we try as parents to set limits and get our ch

58、ildren out in nature, the new cry of childhood seems to be “Im bored,” which is not really just meaning “Im bored,” “but “Please find something to entertain me, as I no longer can entertain myself even for a short period of time.” Our children no longer know how to sit in silence, entertain themselv

59、es while even waiting for a few minutes and have lost the awe of nature as they have become addicted to screen time.We have made a choice in this household to do what is no longer expected of children in many householdswe will ensure that there are days of “boredom.” We refuse to spend our days sche

60、duling our childrens every hour. There will be many days with no plans at all, when they will be sent outside with only the grass and the trees and their own imaginations to entertain them.The screens will be turned off and our children will find that times of quiet can be just as or even more enter
