I wanted to go nowhere but to Cornell University, but my mother fought strongly against it. When she saw me studying a photograph of
9、my father on the sports ground of Cornell, she tore it up. “You cant say its not a great university, just because Papa went there.” “Thats not it at all. And it is a top university.”She was still holding the pieces in her hand. “But we cant afford to send you to college.” “I wouldnt dream of asking
10、you for money. Do you want me to get a job to help support you and Papa? Things arent that bad, are they?” “No,”she said. “I dont expect you to help support us.” Father borrowed money from his rich cousins to start a small jewelry shop. His chief customers were his old college friends. To get new cu
11、stomers, my mother had to help. She picked up a long-forgotten membership in the local league of women, so that she could get to know more people. Whether those people would turn into customers was another question. I knew that my parents had to wait for quite a long time before their small investme
12、nt (投资) could show returns. Whats more, they had not wanted enough to be rich and successful; otherwise they could not possibly have managed their lives so badly. I was torn between the desire to help them and change their lives, and the determination not to repeat their mistakes. I had a strong bel
13、ief in my power to get what I wanted. After months of hard study I won a full college scholarship. My father could hardly contain his pride in me, and my mother eventually gave in before my success.21. The author was not allowed to go to Cornell University mainly because_ A.his father graduated from
14、 the university B.his mother did not thinks it a great university C.his parents needed him to help support the family D.his parents did not have enough money for him22. Why did the mother renew her membership in the league? A.To help with her husbands business B.To raise money for her son C.To meet
15、her long-forgotten friends D.To better manage her life23. According to the text, what was the author determined to do in that autumn? A.To get a well-paid job for himself B.To improve relations with his mother C.To go to his dream university D.To carry on with his fathers business B Eating too much
16、fatty food, exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease. But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately: the air you breathe.Previous studies have linked high exposure to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problem,
17、 but two analyses now show that poor air quality can lead to heart attack or stroke within as little as a few hours after exposure. In one review of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants (污染物）were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of
18、exposure than those with lower exposure. A separate study of stroke patients showed that even air that the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers to be of “moderate” (良好）quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exp
19、osure.The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardle
20、ss of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.24. The text mainly discusses the relationship between _.A. heart problems and air quality B. heart problems and exercising
21、C. heart problems and smoking D. heart problems and fatty food25. The underlined word “modest” in Paragraph 3 most probably means_ .A. relatively high B. extremely lowC. relatively low D. extremely high26. What can we learn from the text?A. Eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.B. Th
22、e EPA conducted many studies on air quality.C. Moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking,D. Stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.27. The authors purpose of writing the text is most likely to _. A. inform B. persuade C. describe D. entertain C Some children are natural-born bosse
23、s. They have a strong need to make decisions, manage their environment, and lead rather than follow. Stephen Jackson, a Year One student, “operates under the theory of whats mine is mine and whats yours is mine,” says his mother. “The other day I bought two new Star Wars light sabers. Later, I saw S
24、tephen with the two new ones while his brother was using the beat-up ones.” “Examine the extended family, and youll probably find a bossy grandparent, aunt, uncle or cousin in every generation. Its an inheritable trait,” says Russell Barkley, a professor at the Medical University of South Carolina.
25、Other children who may not be particularly bossy can gradually gain dominance when they sense their parents are weak, hesitant, or in disagreement with each other.Whether its inborn nature or developed character at work, too much control in the hands at the young isnt healthy for children or the fam
26、ily. “Fear is at the root of a lot of bossy behavior,” says family psychologist John Taylor. Children, he says in his book From Defiance to Cooperation, “have secret feelings of weakness” and “a desire to feel safe”. Its the parents role to provide that protection.When a “boss child” doesnt learn li
27、mits at home, the stage is set for a host of troubles outside the family. The overly willful and unbending child may have trouble obeying teachers or coaches, for example, or trouble keeping friends. It can be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your bossy ways.“I see more and more parents
28、giving up their power,” says Barkley, who has studied bossy behavior for more than 30 years. “They bend too far because they dont want to be as strict as their own parents were. But they also feel less confident about their parenting skills. Their kids, in turn, feel more anxious.”28. Bossy children
29、 like Stephen Jackson _. A. make good decisions B. show self-centeredness C. are very considerate D. always think about other persons29. The underlined phrase “inheritable trait” in Paragraph 2 means . A. inborn nature B. developed character C. accepted theory D. particular environment30. The study
30、on bossy behavior implies that parents _ . A. should give more power to their children B. should be strict with their children C. should bend before their children D. should not set limits for their children31. What is the passage mainly about? A. How bossy behavior can be controlled. B. How we can
31、get along with bossy children. C. What leads to childrens bossy behavior. D. What effect bossy behavior brings about. D A research team from Finland, the United States, China and Scotland is hopeful about the future of forests. Six experts in forestry science and economics say forest growth is on th
32、e increase in some countries and the number is rising. Professor Kauppi says the findings suggest the world may be able to reach a turning point away from deforestation (毁林). Many experts have considered that impossible. But the researchers say it may be possible to expand the worlds forests by ten
33、percent, or an area about the size of India, by 2050. They used information released last year by the Food and Agriculture Organization. The new study looked at the fifty nations with the most forests. The researchers used a new way to measure forest resources. They considered more than just the amo
34、unt of land covered by trees. They also considered forest density, tree sizes, biomass (生物量) and the amount of atmospheric carbon captured in forests. The biomass represents all plants and tree growth. The researchers say growing stock increased in twenty-two of the fifty countries. And, in about ha
35、lf of the fifty countries, biomass and carbon storage also increased. The researchers say forest areas and biomass are still being lost in such important countries as Brazil and Indonesia. But they found gains in others, including the worlds most populous nations. They say China and the United State
36、s have had the greatest gains. And they say India has reached the right balance between forested and non-forested land. In percentage terms, though, the study says that forest areas have expanded fastest in the last fifteen years in Vietnam, Spain and China. And they have shrunk fastest in Nigeria a
37、nd the Philippines. Professor Kauppi says the main obstacle to forest growth is fast-growing poor populations that burn wood for cooking fuel, or sell it for quick money or clear forest for crops. But a number of scientists criticized the use of information that came from governments. They said some
38、 governments didnt keep good records about their forests, and might not tell the truth.32. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A.
