Then Mason added:“Just dont make you _44_ thats empty flattery; Ill tell you honestly that I do not think so _45_ of some of your early pieces.” Paderewskis wife gave mason a _46_look. “what do you not _47_? What pieces?”
14、 How Mason regretted saying such words! He spoke out a name of a piece in panic. She said it was one of her _48_ among her husbands works. Mason tried again and _49_ to say only good words of Paderewski. He said how he admired Paderewski on his use of French impressionism. But Paderewski said, “I ha

28、nutes. Although his Mandarin was far from perfect, students and faculty cheered his effort.Zuckerbergs talk raises a question: is Chinese the language of the future? Could it replace English as the worlds international language? Mandarin Chinese already has the most native speakers of any language.
29、And, China may soon pass the United States as the worlds largest economy.The study of the Chinese language is increasing in the United States and around the world. In 2009, about 60,000 American college students were studying Chinese. That is three times as many as in 1990.A small but growing number

But he says English, with its association with freedom, will remain the global language.Martinez says that English is
35、 seen as a more neutral language than Chinese. Unlike Chinese, it is not associated with one country.

39、ing More and MoreCEverybody is happy as his pay rises. Yet pleasure at your own can disappear if you learn that a fellow worker has been given a bigger one. Indeed, if he is known as being lazy, you might even be quite cross. Such behavior is regarded as “all too human”, with the underlying belief t
40、hat other animals would not be able to have this finely developed sense of sadness. But a study by Sarah Brosnan of Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, which has just been published in Nature, suggests that it is all too monkey, as well. The researchers studied the behaviors of some kind of female
41、 brown monkeys. They look smart. They are good-natured, co-operative creatures, and they share their food happily. Above all, like female human beings, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of “goods and services” than males. Such characteristics make them perfect subjects for Doctor B
42、rosnans study. The researchers spent two years teaching their monkeys to exchange tokens (奖券) for food. Normally, the monkeys were happy enough to exchange pieces of rock for pieces of cucumber. However, when two monkeys were placed in separate and connected rooms, so that each other could observe w
43、hat the other is getting in return for its rock, they became quite different. In the world of monkeys，grapes are excellent goods (and much preferable to cucumbers). So when one monkey was handed a grape in exchange for her token, the second was not willing to hand hers over for a mere piece of cucum
44、ber. And if one received a grape without having to provide her token in exchange at all, the other either shook her own token at the researcher, or refused to accept the cucumber. Indeed, the mere presence of a grape in the other room (without an actual monkey to eat it) was enough to bring about di
45、ssatisfaction in a female monkey.The researches suggest that these monkeys, like humans, are guided by social senses. In the wild, they are co-operative and group-living. Such co-operation is likely to be firm only when each animal feels it is not being cheated. Feelings of anger when unfairly treat
46、ed, it seems, are not the nature of human beings alone. Refusing a smaller reward completely makes these feelings clear to other animals of the group. However, whether such a sense of fairness developed independently in monkeys and humans, or whether it comes from the common roots that they had 35 m
47、illion years ago, is, as yet, an unanswered question.61. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? A. Only monkeys and humans can have the sense of fairness in the world. B. Women will show more dissatisfaction than men when unfairly treated. C. In the wild, monkeys are ne
48、ver unhappy to share their food with each other. D. Monkeys can exchange cucumbers for grapes, for grapes are more attractive.62. The underlined statement “it is all too monkey” means that _. A. monkeys are also angry with lazy fellowsB. feeling bitter at unfairness is also monkeys nature C. monkeys
49、, like humans, tend to be envious of each other D. no animals other than monkeys can develop such feelings63. Female monkeys of this kind are chosen for the research most probably because they are _ . A. more likely to weigh what they get B. attentive to researchers instructions C. nice in both appe
50、arance and behaviorsD. more ready to help others than their male companions64. Which of the following conclusions is TRUE according to the passage? A. Human beings feelings of anger are developed from the monkeys. B. In the research, male monkeys are less likely to exchange food with others. C. Co-o
51、peration between monkeys stays firm before the realization of being cheated. D. Only monkeys and humans have the sense of fairness which dates back to 35 million years ago.DOnly two countries in the advanced world provide no guarantee for paid leave from work to care for a newborn child. Last spring
52、 one of the two, Australia, gave up the dubious distinction by establishing paid family leave starting in 2011. I wasnt surprised when this didnt make the news here in the United Stateswere now the only wealthy country without such a policy.The United States does have one explicit family policy, the
53、 Family and Medical Leave Act, passed in 1993. It entitles workers to as much as 12 weeks unpaid leave for care of a newborn or dealing with a family medical problem. Despite the modesty of the benefit, the Chamber of Commerce and other business groups fought it bitterly, describing it as government
54、-run personnel management and a dangerous precedent. In fact, every step of the way, as (usually) Democratic leaders have tried to introduce work-family balance measures into the law, business groups have been strongly opposed.As Yale law professor Anne Alstott argues, justifying parental support de
55、pends on defining the family as a social good that, in some sense, society must pay for. In her book No Exit: What Parents Owe Their Children and What Society Owes Parents, she argues that parents are burdened in many ways in their lives: there is no exit when it comes to children. Society expectsan
56、d needsparents to provide their children with continuity of care, meaning the intensive, intimate care that human beings need to develop their intellectual, emotional and moral capabilities. And society expectsand needsparents to persist in their roles for 18 years, or longer if needed.While most pa
57、rents do this out of love, there are public penalties for not providing care. What parents do, in other words, is of deep concern to the state, for the obvious reason that caring for children is not only morally urgent but essential for the future of society. The state recognizes this in the large b
58、ody of family laws that govern children welfare, yet parents receive little help in meeting the life-changing obligations society imposes. To classify parenting as a personal choice for which there is no collective responsibility is not merely to ignore the social benefits of good parenting; really,
59、 it is to steal those benefits because they accrue (不断积累) to the whole of society as todays children become tomorrows productive citizenry (公民). In fact, by some estimates, the value of parental investments in children, investments of time and money (including lost wages), is equal to 20-30% of gros
60、s domestic product. If these investments generate huge social benefitsas they clearly dothe benefits of providing more social support for the family should be that much clearer.65. What do we learn about paid family leave from the first paragraph?A. America is now the only developed country without
61、the policy.B. It has now become a hot topic in the United States.C. It came as a surprise when Australia adopted the policy.D. Its meaning was clarified when it was established in Australia.66. What has prevented the passing of work-family balance laws in the United States?A. The incompetence of the
62、 Democrats.B. The existing Family and Medical Leave Act.C. The lack of a precedent in American history.D. The opposition from business circles.67. What is Professor Anne Alstotts argument for parental support?A. The cost of raising children in the U. S. has been growing.B. Good parenting benefits so
63、ciety.C. The U. S. should keep up with other developed countries.D. Children need continuous care.68. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “dubious” in paragraph one?A. SpecialB. SignificantC. AllegedD. Thorough69. What does the author think of Americas large body of f
64、amily laws governing childrens welfare?A. They fail to ensure childrens healthy growthB. The fail to provide enough support for parentsC. They emphasize parents legal responsibilities.D. They impose the care of children on parents.70. Why does the author object to classifying parenting as a personal
65、 choice?A. It is regarded as a legal obligation.B. It relies largely on social support.C. It generates huge social benefits.D.

66、dren is a tough one. Children dont come with an instruction handbook. And each child is different. So parents sometimes pull their hair out in frustration, not knowing what to do. But in raising children-as in all of life-what we do is influenced by our culture. Naturally then, American parents teac

As children grow, they gain more freedom to make their own choices. Teenagers choose their own forms of entertainment, as we

Of course, many young adults still seek their parents advice and approval for the choices they make. But once they leave the nest at around 18 to 21 years old, they want to be
69、on their own, not tied to their mothers apron strings.The relationship between parents and children in America is very informal. American parents try to treat their children as individualsnot as extensions of themselves. They allow them to fulfill their own dreams. Americans praise and encourage the

But contrary to popular belief, most adult Americans dont make their parents pay for room and board when they come to visit. Even as adu
71、lts, they respect and honor their parents. Most young couples with children struggle with the issue of childcare. Mothers have traditionally stayed home with their children. In recent years, though, a growing trend is to put preschoolers in a day care center so Mom can work. Many Americans have stro

Others insist that mothers are the best caregivers for children. A number of women are now leaving the workforce to become full-time homemakers. Disciplining ch

87、asons. For one thing, it provides us students with a good chance to learn how to play football, which is also beneficial to building up our body just like other kinds of sports. For another, its important for the development of Chinese football because it will not only make it popular with more and
88、more people but also cultivate more excellent football players who may even become football stars. From my point of view, there are many difficulties in carrying out the program. First of all, not every school is big enough to provide a football pitch where students enjoy it. Whats more, theres a la
89、ck of football teachers because our PE teachers now are not good at football or dont know how to play it. Last but not least, it needs a large sum of money. To overcome these difficulties, Id like to give some suggestions. First of all, the government should invest a lot of money in building football pitches and developing footballing infrastructure. Besides, football teachers should be hired or PE teachers should be trained as quickly as possible.
