Pollys son, Jim, had great difficulty in school. He was classified as the educ
29、ationally handicapped and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers. But Jim was a happy kid with a great smile that lit up the room. His parents knew his difficulties, but they always tried to help him see his strengths so that he could walk with pride. Shortly after
30、 Jim finished high school, he was killed in a motorcycle accident. After his death, his mother submitted this letter to the newspaper. “Today we buried our 20-year-old son. He was killed in a motorcycle accident on Friday night. How I wish I had known that the last time I had talked to him would be
31、the last time. If I had only known that, I would have said to him, Jim, I love you and Im always so proud of you. I would have taken the time to count the many blessings he had brought to the lives of the people who loved him. I would have taken the time to appreciate his beautiful smile, his laught
32、er, and his genuine love to other people. “When I put all the good things on the scale and try to balance them with all the irritating (恼人的) things such as the radio that was always too loud, the haircut that wasnt to our liking, the dirty socks under the bed, etc., I find that the irritations reall
33、y dont amount to much. “I wont get another chance to tell my son all that I would have wanted him to hear, but, other parents, do have a chance. Tell your young people what you would want them to hear as if it may be your last conversation. The last time I talked to Jim was the morning of the day wh
34、en he died. He called me to say, Hi, Mom! I just called to say I love you. You have to go to work now. Bye. That day, he gave me something to treasure forever. ”If there is any purpose at all for Jims death, maybe it is to make others appreciate life more and to tell people, especially family member
35、s, that they should take the time to let each other know just how much they care. You may never have another chance. Do it today!61. Who was Jim?A. The child of the Tyners.B. The writers relative.C. The president of a school board.D. An official of a school.62. Whats the meaning of the underlined ph
36、rase “the educationally handicapped”?A. The learning difficulty.B. The physical problems.C. The psychological problems.D. The communication difficulty. 63. According to the writer, which of the following about Jim is TRUE？A. He was always sad about his school marks.B. His parents always scolded him
37、about his bad school marks.C. His study needed more attention from his parents and teachers.D. He was killed in a car accident. 64. The purpose of Pollys letter is to .A. memorize her sonB. teach parents to appreciate their childrenC. teach children how to be good boysD. give some advice on how to d
38、eal with childrens problemsBSome people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is, we can try to do it ourselves.How is it done? Here are several sk
39、ills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, theyll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly.First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I alw
40、ays ask people what they did that morning. Its a common question, but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matterssometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to t
41、he answers. This point seems clear, but it isnt. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively.Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of con
42、versation. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that hes really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, its time for you to change the subject.Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with
43、 the occasion of parting. If youre saying good-bye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “Ive really enjoyed meeting you.” If you want to see that person again, dont keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if theyve known you half their life.65. Askin

Generally speaking, good talkers are persons who _.A. are good at making any topic interestingB. never talk too much or too littleC. always speak
46、in a gentle wayD. know how and when they should change the topic of the talk68. If you really take delight in meeting someone again, _.A. you may take him as your lifelong trustworthy friendB. it seems necessary for you to let him know itC. its proper for you to give him a second handshakeD. itll be
47、 helpful for you to have further understanding of himCThe first reality TV show in the world was called Expedition Robinson and it was shown in Sweden in 1997. Half the population of the country watched the final event and a new kind of TV program was born. Two years later in Holland , the first ser
48、ies of Big Brother was filmed. Again, it was a great success and the final program was watched by 15 million people. Now more than 20 countries around the world have Big Brother or Expedition Robinson on their TV screens. The ordinary people who take part in the programs are known by millions of peo
49、ple in their own countries and reality TV has become big, big business. For the TV producers, reality TV is a dream which comes true because many of the programs cost nothing to make. At some point, the television viewers are asked to telephone the program to vote or to apply to take part in the sho
50、w. It is the cost of these telephone calls that pays for the shows. One of the most popular shows is Pop Idol. In the show a group of attractive young people are made into pop stars. TV viewers vote for their favorite person on the show. The winner makes a record and millions of copies of the record
51、 are sold. His or her pictures are published on the covers of magazines or on the front pages of newspapers, and then, they are quickly forgotten. But not everyone is happy about reality TV. In Portugal, two TV channels got into trouble because they showed too much of the personal lives of the peopl
52、e in the shows. In France, reality TV is called “rubbish TV” and the TV studios of Big Brother were attacked three times in one week.

65、CAN RED CROSSC. GLOBALGIVING. ORG D. SHELTERBOX. CROSSEWe each have a unique genetic (基因的，遗传的) make-up. Every cell of your body has the same set of about 100,000 separate genes made of DNA. These are the instructions for producing a person. Genes decide everything from the colour of your skin to the
66、 way your brain works. You have one of several billion combinations of DNA which come from the random mixing of your parents genes. Except for identical twins (同卵双胞胎), no one has the same combination as another person. You are unique! You are unique in another way too: in the way you are raised and
67、all the experiences you have from before birth to adult life. These experiences influence you, your behaviour and attitudes, and the choices you make.But are genes or life experiences more important in shaping your appearance and personality? Scientists are studying twins to find out. One set of twi
68、ns occurs every 70 births-some are identical and others are non-identical twins. Identical twins are special because they share exactly the same genes and often the same environment. Non-identical twins are more like ordinary brothers and sisters.Some identical twins have been adopted and brought up
69、 in different homes. With identical genes but a different home environment, scientists can study twins to see how much a particular feature depends on the genes we inherit. For example, we know that eye problems, like short-sightedness, are mostly genetic. But resistance（抵抗力）to pain is largely depen
70、dent on experiences. Genes also influence our eating habits. Identical twins brought up apart often like to eat at the same time of day and feel full after eating the same amount. Non-identical twins in similar circumstances（环境） have more varied eating habits. Identical twins are also more likely to
71、 follow the same patterns for marriage and divorce than non-identical twins.Scientists are trying to identify the different genes that influence our behaviour. Some people are thrill-seekers and get into risk-taking and adventurous activities. They take up extreme sports like bungee jumping and poss
72、ibly take drugs. Scientists have discovered a gene which affects this.We could ask, “Are our lives determined by our genes or our upbringing?” Scientists are learning more all the time, but it is certainly true that both are important in making us who we are.76. What is the main idea of the first pa

Both our genes and our experiences make us who we are.77. Why are scientists studying twins? A. To find out how many twins are bo

A. one in 70 twins are genetically identical B. non-identical twins are usually not of the same sex C. twins separated a
