29、slow to praise? It seems that while most of us are only too ready to apply to others the cold wind of criticism, we are somehow unwilling to give others the warm sunshine of praise.Its strange how mean we are about praising. Perhaps its because few of us know how to accept praise gracefully. Instead
30、, we are embarrassed and ignore the words we are really so glad to hear. Because of this defensive reaction, direct praise is surprisingly difficult to give.Do you ever go into a house and say，“What a tidy room！” Hardly anybody does. Thats why housework is considered such a boring job. Shakespeare s
31、aid, “Our praises are our wages.” Since so often praise is the only wage a housewife receives, surely she is worthy of praise.Mothers know naturally that for children an ounce of praise is worth a pound of scolding. Still, we are unaware of childrens small achievements and we seldom apply the rule.
32、One day I was criticizing my children for quarreling. “Can you never play peacefully？” I shouted. Susanna looked at me confused. “Of course we can，” she said. “But you dont notice us when we do.”Teachers agree about the value of praise. “I believe that a student knows when he has handed in something
33、 above his usual standard，” writes a teacher, “and that he is hungry of a brief comment in the margin to show him that the teacher is aware of it, too.”Behavioural scientists have done countless experiments to prove that people have a tendency to repeat an act which has been immediately followed by
34、a pleasant result. In one such experiment, a number of schoolchildren were divided into three groups and given arithmetic tests daily for five days. One group was constantly praised for its previous performance; another group was criticized; the third was ignored. Not surprisingly, those who were pr
35、aised improved dramatically. Those who were criticized improved also, but not so much. And the scores of the children who were ignored hardly improved at all. Interestingly the brightest children were helped just as much by criticism as by praise, but the less able children, who reacted badly to cri
36、ticism, needed praise the most.To give praise costs the giver nothing but a moments thought and a moments effort perhaps a quick phone call to pass on good comments, or write an appreciative letter. It is such a small investment and yet consider the results it may produce. We will not only bring joy
37、 into other peoples lives, but also, very often, add happiness into our own. “I can live for two months on a good compliment.” said Mark Twain.答案：1.criticism2.rather3.difficulty/trouble4.worthy5apply6.hungrily/eagerly/desperately7.tends8reacting/responding9.Conclusion/Summary10.effort检测评价B卷阅读理解A(201

In some regions, such as southern England, floods are now occurring 15 days earlier than they did h
104、alf a century ago. But the changes arent uniform, with rivers around the North Sea seeing floods delayed by around eight days.Floods caused by rivers impact people more than any other natural disaster, and the estimated global damages run to over 100 billion dollars a year. Researchers have long pre
105、dicted that a warming world would have direct impacts on these events but until now the evidence has been hard to establish. Floods are affected by many different factors in addition to rainfall, such as the amount of moisture (水分) already in the soil and other factors such as changes in landuse tha
106、t can speed up water runoff (地表径流) from hillsides.This new study looks at this issue in some depth, by creating a Europewide database of observations from 4,262 hydrometric stations in 38 countries, dating back to 1960. The analysis finds a clear but complex impact of climate change on river floodin
107、g. The most consistent changes are in northeastern Europe around Scandinavia where earlier snow melt due to warmer temperatures is leading to earlier spring floods. Around 50% of monitoring stations are seeing floods eight days earlier than 50 years ago.The biggest changes are seen along the western
108、 edge of Europe, from Portugal up to southern England. Half the stations recorded floods at least 15 days earlier than previously. A quarter of the stations have seen flooding more than 36 days earlier than in 1960. In these regions, the issue isnt snow melt its more about soil of high humidity (湿度)
109、. Maximum rainfall tends to occur in the autumn and gets stored in the soils. Heavier and earlier rain means that the groundwater reaches capacity earlier.In southern England, it has been raining more, longer and more intensely than in the past. This has created a rising groundwater table and higher
110、 soil moisture than usual and combined with intense rainfall that produces earlier river floods. However, around the North Sea, in the Netherlands, Denmark and Scotland, the trend is towards later floods. The scientists believe this is due to changes in the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), the weat
111、her phenomenon that pushes storms across the ocean into Europe. The NAO is driven by differences in atmospheric pressure between the Icelandic low and the Azores high. Recent, rapid changes in temperatures in the Arctic are influencing these pressure levels and changing the track of the storms as we

This study shows clear evidence of the impacts of humaninduced climate change in many regions but there are still some areas of uncertainty. The study foresees subtle but significant imp
