25、 rest D. each other第三部分 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)AA child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a
26、book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child , is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to s
27、how in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises (出现) from the child having heard the
28、 story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist;
29、 and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say so peculiar (奇怪的) that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempti
30、ng to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girlfriend.No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.56. The author considers that a fairy story i
31、s more effective when it is _. A. repeated without any change B. treated as a joke C. made some changes by the parent D. set in the present57. According to the passage, great fear can take place in a child when the story is _. A. in a realistic setting B. heard for the first time C. repeated too oft
32、en D. told in a different way58. The advantage claimed (提出) for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it _. A. makes them less fearful B. develops their power of memory C. makes them believe there is nothing to be afraid of D. encourages them not to have strange beliefs59. The authors me
33、ntion of sticks and telephones is meant to suggest that _. A. fairy stories are still being made up B. there is some misunderstanding about fairy tales C. people try to modernize old fairy stories D. there is more concern for childrens fears nowadays60. One of the reasons why some people are not in
34、favor of fairy tales is that _. A. they are full of imagination B. they just make up the stories which are far from the truth C. they are not interesting D. they make teachers of history difficult to teachBA young college student, reluctant that he was admitted to a wrong specialty of an undesirable
35、 college, abandoned himself to playing truant and was given to drinking instead of studying. Thus things were getting from bad to worse.But he was never absent from Prof. Yangs biology class. He liked the course. Besides, Yangs class was so vivid and interesting that he was always attentive to it re
36、gardless of other students paying no attention or not in class.Once he enclosed a note in the homework he handed in, saying “Professor, it is said that todays college students are cheaper than potatoes. Do you agree?”He didnt know why he took the action. It might be attributed (归于) to his trust to t
37、he professor, or because he did not want to carry on his depression and tried in vain to find a way out.That day Prof. Yang sent for him after class. When he came he found the professor at the table on which were four dishes and one soup. They drank heartily over the dishes. When they became half dr
38、unk, the professor produced a small bluish potato that was sprouting (萌发) and said to the young man, “Do you know how much it costs? Its skinny and lacks flesh. Moreover, it is poisonous. Nobody will take it even if its given free of charge.” He threw it into the rubbish bin.The professor then showe
39、d him another potato that must weigh more than 500g. “This potato cultivated with amazing fertilizer is not only large and fresh but also free of pollution. It costs 12 bucks per kilogram.” The young man was struck dumb by what hed heard. The professor put the big potato into his hand and said, “Be
40、such a potato. Dont forget there are potatoes and potatoes!”61. The young man was never absent from Prof. Yangs biology class because _. A. Prof. Yangs biology class was about potatoes B. Prof. Yang always sent for him after class C. the young man liked his major very much D. Prof. Yangs biology cla
41、ss was lively and interesting62. What does Prof. Yang mean by saying “Dont forget there are potatoes and potatoes!”? A. There is much to be learned about biology. B. There are indeed many ordinary college students. C. You need to take care of your potato-like classmates. D. You have to be different
42、from common potatoes.63. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. Some students didnt care for Prof. Yangs class. B. It was the young man who paid the bill eventually. C. Prof. Yang taught biology and did some experiments on potatoes. D. The young man was in fact intelligent r
43、egardless of his faults.CAn American educational expert, Frederick M. Hess says that a long summer vacation doesnt make sense in todays world.This summer, 50 million kids will spend much time talking online, watching TV, playing video games and asking older brothers or sisters to take them to the ma
44、ll. They will also be putting their academic futures at risk.During much of the 20th century, many Americans worked in factories and did not need a college degree, but were still offered a high wage. Also, in the 19th century, there was no air conditioning. And poor hygiene (卫生) meant that crowded s
45、chools were unhealthy during the long summer months. Things have changed. For todays students, academic skills are the key to future Success. Many nations dont give kids an American-style summer vacation. They offer no more than seven consecutive (连续的) weeks of vacation. Most American school distric
46、ts offer up to 13 weeks. To compete in the global market-place, Americans must be prepared to fight with international competitors.Summer vacation also causes challenges to todays families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of families had a stay-at-home mom. Now, two-thirds of American children live in f
47、amilies where every adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be more burden than a Break. Someone must watch the kids.But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement, scientists have found that disadvantaged students lose important ground in the summertime.
48、A longer school year can allow time-limited teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons. Schools would have more time for sports, languages, music and the arts.64. We can learn from the third paragraph that _. A. many other countries have an American-style summer vacation B. its difficul
49、t to find a proper job in America nowadays C. the total number of factories in America is decreasing D. a long summer vacation was necessary in the 19th and 20th centuries in America65.

50、ans will face fierce competition in the world. B. Adults have to find the time to take care of their kids. C. Teachers have few things to do in summer vacations. D. Some students studies are affected.66. According to the author, who will benefit from a longer school year? A. American students, teach
51、ers and parents. B. American students, parents and international competitors. C. American students, parents and shop assistants. D. American students, teachers and international competitors.67. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Things for kids to do in summer vacation B. A
52、merica doesnt need a long summer vacation C. American students are under high pressureD. Summer vacations in different countriesDAn allowance is an important tool for teaching kids how to budget(预算), save and make their decisions. Children remember and learn from mistakes when their own dollars are
53、lost or spent foolishly.How large an allowance is appropriate? Experts say there is not a right amount. Actual amount differs from region to region, and from family to family.To set an appropriate allowance for your child, work up a weekly budget. Allow for entertainment expenses such as movies and
54、snacks. Next, include everyday expenses such as lunch money, bus fare, school supplies. “If you make the child responsible for these bills,” says Josephine Swanson, a consumer specialist. “He or she will learn to budget for necessary expenditures.” Finally, add some extra money to make saving possib
55、le. If you can, keep your childs allowance in line with that of his friends. A child whose purchasing power falls away below his peers can feel left out. It can be tough but avoid excusing your children when they make a mistake with their allowance. When Brooke Stephens was ten and growing up in Jac
56、ksonville, her mother gave her $5 a week, $1.75 of which was for bus fare and lunch. “If you lose your money,” Brooks mother told her. “You walk home.”One week the girl spent all her allowance in a candy store; then she called home for a ride. “Mom made me walk home,” recalls Stephens, now a financi
57、al planner in Brooklyn. “At first I was angry. But I finally realized that she was trying to teach me an important lesson.”Experts advise that an allowance should not be tied directly to daily chores. Kids should help around the house not because they get paid for it but because they share responsib
58、ilities as members of a family. You might, however, pay a child for doing extra jobs at home, that can develop his or her initiative (积极性).68. What does the passage mainly discuss? A. How to develop a childs initiative. B. How to work up an amount of pocket money. C. How to teach a child to save mon
59、ey. D. How to teach a child about money.69. It can be inferred from the passage that if a child is given an allowance, he or she may _. A. spend all the money very soon B. be spoiled and finally ruined C. feel responsible and careful about money D. lose the money and cant return home70. In Paragraph
60、 4, the words “his peers” refer to _. A. his parents B. his teachers C. his financial experts D. his friends71. The author mentions Brooke Stephens in order to _.

61、dren are developing good habits about money D. suggest that pocket money is useless in developing a childs sense of responsibilityEThere is one word that is on the lips of Americans, day and night, “Sorry”.One time as I was walking on the street, a young man ran by hurriedly, brushing against my han
62、dbag. Even as he continued on his way, he turned back and said “sorry” to me. Even in a rush, he didnt forget to apologize. One day, after I bought some apples, the salesman was giving me the change, but I wasnt ready for it, and a coin dropped on the ground, “Tm sorry,” he said while bending down t
63、o pick it up. I was puzzled-why would he apologize when it was my fault?Another time, I stepped on a mans foot in an escalator. At the same time, we both said “sorry”. I thought it interesting: was it really necessary for him to apologize? Later on, an American friend explained to me that according
64、to the American ideas, the escalator is public place which everyone should be able to stand in. After someone occupies a position in the escalator, making it difficult for someone else to find a place to stand in, isnt it necessary to express an apology?During my stay in America, I gradually realize
65、d that when friction (摩擦) occurs in daily life, Americans dont care much about who is responsible. If someone is troubled, a “sorry” is always necessary. Even if the other person is hurt, the sorry would cool tempers. Perhaps this is why I never saw anyone quarreling on the buses, subways or streets
66、 in America.72. When I was walking in the street, _. A. a young man wanted to rob me of my bag B. a young man ran by and wanted to brush my bag C. a young man said sorry to me for touching my bag D. a young man came hurriedly to help me with my bag73.
