16、extreme Tiger-style may do more harm than good. Authoritarian parents are more likely to end up with disrespectful children with violent behaviors, the study found, compared to parents who listen to their kids with the goal of gaining trust.It was the first study to look at how parenting styles affe
17、ct the way teens view their parents and, in turn, how they behave. The study considered three general styles of parenting. Authoritative parents are demanding and controlling while also being warm and sensitive to their childrens needs. Authoritarian parents, on the contrary, are demanding and contr
18、olling without the appearance of caring, attachment and receptiveness. They take a “my way or the highway” approach to their kids. Permissive parents, the third group, have warm and receptive qualities, but they set few boundaries and carry out few rules.Using data on early 600 kids from an ongoing
19、study of middle school and high school students in New Hampshire, researchers from the University of New Hampshire were able to find “my way or the highway” parenting with more violent behaviors like robbery, drug-taking, and attacking someone else with the intention of hurting or killing. Firm but
20、loving parenting, on the other hand, led to fewer lawbreakers. Permissive parenting, surprisingly, didnt seem to make much of a difference either.To explain the rink between parenting style and behavior in kids, the researchers suggested that what matters most is how reasonable kids think their pare
21、nts power is. This sense comes when kids trust that their parents are making the best decisions for them and believe that they need to do what their parents say even if they dont always like how their parents are treating them. When kids respect the power of their parents, the researchers reported i
22、n the journal of Adolescence, their behavior is better. Previous research has also linked firm but caring parenting with kids who have more self-control and independence.“When children consider their parents to be the reliable figure, they trust the parents and feel that they have a duty to do what
23、their parents tell them to do,” said lead researcher Pick Trinkner. “This is very important as the parent doesnt have to rely on a system of rewards and punishments to control behavior and the child is more likely to follow the rules when the parent is not physically present.”24.What is special abou

To arouse parents awareness of right parenting.CMalaria(疟疾) is a mosquito-borne disease caused by a parasite (寄生虫). People with malaria ofte
27、n experience fever, and flu-like illness. Left untreated, they may die. A new study suggests that some homemade soups might help fight malaria. Jake Baum of Imperial College London led the research. He asked children at a London school to bring in home-made clear soups that their families would make
28、 to treat a fever. The children were from many different cultural backgrounds. And the soups were then given to the parasite that created 99.7 percent of malaria cases in Africa. Of the 56 soups tested, five were more than 50 percent effective in containing the growth of the parasite. Two were as ef
29、fective as one drug now used to treat malaria. And four soups were more than 50 percent effective in preventing parasites from aging to the point when they could infect (感染) mosquitoes that spread the disease. The soups came from families from different places, including Europe, North Africa and the
30、 Middle East. They had several main ingredients (成分), including chicken, beef and green vegetables. Baum said the vegetarian soups showed similar results to the soups with meat. Baum and his team reported their results recently in the publication Archives of Disease in Childhood. “When we started ge
31、tting soups that worked in the lab under very limited conditions we were really happy and excited,” Baum said. Baum also added that it was unclear which foods made the soups effective against malaria. 2 “If we were serious about going back and finding the ingredients, like good scientists, wed have
32、to do it in a better way,” he said. Baum said his aim was in part to show children that scientific research can turn a herbal (草本的) cure into a man-made medicine. Now the drugs that treat the disease are becoming useless for more and more people, and about 400,000 people are killed by the disease ev
33、ery year. That means scientists will have to find new drugs. 28. What can we learn about malaria from the passage? A. It can be easily recognized. B. It can be a very serious disease. C. It doesnt always require treatment. D. It is a big problem in many countries. 29. Why did Jake Baum ask children
34、to bring in such home-made soups? A. To figure out their ingredients. B. To learn about different cultures. C. To see if they could help cure fevers. D. To see if they could help fight malaria. 30. What does the underlined word “containing” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Improving. B. Proving. C. Preventin
35、g. D. Showing. 31. What is a problem with the drugs used to fight malaria now? A. They can be harmful to peoples health. B. They have no effect on many people. C. They just work in certain countries. D. They are very difficult to get.DIf you walk along the Victorian promenade (公共散步场所) in Burnham-on-
36、Sea, Somerset, youll notice one bench that sticks out from the rest. Sitting 100 metres from the pier (突堤) head is a bright yellow sign marking, “The Happy to Chat bench: sit here if you dont mind someone stopping to say hello.” It was introduced by the police earlier this year to deal with loneline
37、ss among the elderly in the seaside town, where pensioners (领退休金的人) make up a third of the population. The scheme was picked up by CNN, and has attracted followers around the country, as well as in other countries as far away as Canada, Australia, United States and Ukraine. More than nine million pe
38、ople in the UK say they “often or always” feel lonely, according to the British Red Cross. And the former health secretary Jeremy Hunt described loneliness among the elderly as “our national shame”. With the problem so serious, can something as simple as a bench be effective to solve the problem? Th
39、at question led me to Burnhams promenade on a windy November morning, where I spent hours sitting on the countrys first “chat bench” to see who, if anyone, would strike up a conversation. After lunch, I got chatting to 67-year-old Ann Davies, who retired a few years ago from her job as the manager o
40、f the Sue Ryder charity shop. She has lived alone since her divorce 13 years ago, and spent much of her time volunteering. Otherwise, she explained, she would be at the serious risk of falling into the UKs large group of older people who “often feel ignored or invisible”. “Once you get behind that d
41、oor, you dont want to come out. And the longer it goes on, the more you dont want to,” Ann said. “You almost get agoraphobic (广场恐惧症的), and the outside seems very alien and scary. But its not. The best thing is to volunteer. Youve got to have a reason to go out.” Full of natural wit, it was very easy
42、 to warm to Ann after just a few minutes. She explained why she took regular advantage of Burnhams chat bench, “Even just somebody looking at it is enough some may say, Oh, this is a good idea. Whats all that about then? You start chatting about the bench, and it goes on from there. Are you on holid
43、ay? Do you come down every year? Its just natural. Sometimes theyre not even sitting on the bench; they just talk to you standing there.” As the afternoon wore on and the gloomy (阴沉的) sky dimmed further, I called it a day and travelled back to London with my spirits high. Perhaps there is hope for n
44、eighborliness after all. 32. What is the bench mentioned in the passage used to do? A. To let the walkers have a good rest. B. To make the environment more beautiful. C. To provide a special place for people to chat. D. To spread pensions from one person to another. 33. What does Jeremy Hunt think o
45、f the problem “the elderlys loneliness” in the UK? A. It is a serious problem needing attention. B. It can be a great burden to the country. C. It does great harm to old peoples health. D. It needs to be solved by British Red Cross. 34. How does Ann Davies fight against loneliness? A. By cleaning th
46、e “Happy to Chat” bench frequently. B. By talking with other old people whenever possible. C. By spending time offering a helping hand to others. D. By calling on the public to pay attention to old people. 35. What is Anns attitude towards the bench? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Disapproving. D. C

No matter what type of concert one is attending, he is still expected to follow the rules of concert etiquette (礼仪). 36 .C
48、lassical music concerts are often events where concert etiquette is considered to be very important. One should generally arrive a few minutes before the show starts, so he can be in his seat at the beginning of the first musical performance. If he arrives late, it may be considered rude to walk in
49、and take his seat in the middle of a musical performance. 37 In this way, he will not influence other audiences while the music is being played. 38 Take jazz concerts for example.
