28、, too, he thought. Hed never been caught by the police because he never took chances. He was always prepared for any unforeseen event or emergency.Confidently, he stood outside the house of his intended victim and read the sign on the front gate of the house” Dont worry about the dogbe aware of the
29、owner!” it said. Buster smiled and found his way in.The house looked quite normal outside, but inside it was very unusual with fascinating objects on display. As he began putting them into his bag, a dog came into the room. It stopped when it saw Buster, and then went over to him, licking his open h
30、and.” Good boy,” Buster whispered.” What a great guard dog you are-trying to lick me to death.Satisfied hed made friends with the dog, Buster began to walk round the house, choosing items to put in his bag. His skilled eye picked out only the best antiques(古董):a pair of silver candleholders, a silve
31、r teaandcoffee service, etc. His new friend, the dog, sat and watched, as if wondering what was happening. “Well, boy, Buster whispered, finally. “ That might do. Any more and 1 wont be able to carry it!” He swung the heavy bag onto his shoulders, just as the lights came on, nearly blinding him. He
32、covered his eyes with his hand.Youre a very silly person,” the figure in the doorway said, his voice dry as dust. As the man came closer, Buster could see he was well dressed. His face seemed familiar, but Buster couldnt quite place where he had seen him before.You should have taken more notice of t
33、he sign outside,” the man shouted.” I knew about this attempted robbery last week and I also know you will end up behind bars for 20 years.

36、Its interesting that technology often works as a servant for us, yet frequently we become a servant to it. E-mail is a useful tool but many feel controlled by this new tool. The average business person is getting about 80 e-mails per day and many feel that about 80%of the messages in their” Inbox ar
37、e of little or no value. So, I have four suggestions to help you to become better at” Erasing E-mail. 1. Get off the lists. The best way to deal with a problem is to never have it. If you are receiving a lot of unwanted e-mails, ask to be removed from the various lists. 2.Unlisted address”. Just as
38、you keep an” unlisted telephone number that you share only with those whom you want to have direct access to, you might want to get a separate e-mail address only for the important communications you wish to receive. 3. Check it once or twice per day. Many I speak with are becoming chained to their
39、e-mail sever, monitoring incoming e-mail continuously. Maybe this is because e-mail creates its own sense of urgency, but most of the communications are not all that urgent. I respond to them a couple of times per day. 4. Deal with it. As you open each e-mail, do one of the following: a. If it requi
40、res a quick response, respond to it and delete it. b. If it requires a response but is not the best use of your time, try to find someone else to do it. c. If it is going to take any serious amount of time to respond, schedule it for action in your Day Planner and then down load the message, save it
41、, or print it out for future action. I personally receive about 250 e-mails per day and by practicing the suggestions above, I can handle that volume in about an hour, taking advantage of this fantastic tool but not being controlled by it to make sure Im doing more important tasks in my day.459. If
42、you get unwanted e-mails, the best you can do is to .A. make a list of themB. put them into unwanted listsC. send them to a special addressD ask to be deleted from different lists60.For the important communications, the writer suggests that you .A. have a direct access for themB. have several e-mail
43、 servers for themC get a separate e-mail address for themD. get all unlisted phone number for them61.To avoid being chained by the coming e-mail, what you can do is to .A. respond urgent ones onlyB. reply to all of them at the same timeC. handle them a couple of times dailyD keep replying to e-mails
44、 all day long62.To deal with an e-mall you get, you can do the following EXCEPT_.A. responding right away if its urgentB. downloading every e-mail before you replyC. scheduling it for later reply if it takes much timeD. asking someone else to reply to it if its not at your convenienceCRemind childre
45、n that bad things dont last. It may sound simple, but the message is extremely important.” Children often dont have the experience to know that when something bad happens-they lose all important game or their best friend lets them downits not the end of the world,” explains Nancy Leffert, a senior r
46、esearch scientist with the Research Institute, an American adolescents(青少年)and childrens research group.” They think their bad feelings will last for ever, or that one failure will ruin everything Unfortunately, that kind of thinking discourages motivation(动机).If a child believes that the cause of h
47、er upset is lasting, or that nothing she does will make a difference, it decreases her ability to keep on trying,” says Dorothy Rich, president of the Mega Skills Education Center of the Home and School Institute, based in Washington. Any time you can help your child see that a situation is not last
48、ing, that a result can be changed, or that one opinion does not reflect reality, you give her reason to hope. Case in point:“When my daughter Kathy was eight, art was one of her favorite subjects,”says Beth, a mother of two.“ Then she got an art teacher who gave a great deal of praise to one student
49、 and barely noticed the rest Kathy was ready to give up until I explained to her.Never stop doing your best just because one person doesnt give you praise.” Beth had to repeat the advice often, and finally her daughter got the message” Kathy is 12 now, and art is still one of her strongest subjects.
50、”64.Which of the following is RIGHT about Nancy Leffbert.?A. She is the director Of the Research InstituteB. She is the president of the Education Center.C. She strongly believes that bad things wont last long.D. She is concerned about childrens attitudes towards failure65.Which of the following can
51、 a parent say to his children to show that ones opinion does notreflect reality?A. If you call your friend and apologize, he wont slay mad at youB. That may be what your teacher thinks, but I see it differentlyC. You have lost today, but you can try again tomorrowD. Go ahead Dont care what other peo
52、ple think66.It can be informed from the passage that_.A. teachers praise is very important to studentsB. good teachers can give students useful adviceC. teachers should not praise their students in classD. good teachers can find each students favorite subject67.The best title of the passage is_.A He
53、lp Children Promote Problem Solving AbilityB. Tell Children Not to Let Failure Ruin ThemC. Set Reasonable Hopes for Your ChildrenD. Teach Your Children to Be HappyDIn the present cultural atmosphere, much can be done by both sexes. Women can hold mens jobs, and men can hold womens; both men and wome
54、n can play the same sports; both are supposed to share household responsibilities. Also, with the rise of so many single-parent families, mothers or fathers often have to become two-parents-in-one for their teenagers. Yet, despite these changes, I believe firmly that there is a special importance in
55、 same-sex relationships between mothers and daughters, and fathers and sons Without these relationships, or some substitute(替代物)that completes a similar function, its hard for children and parents to experience the full range of close talking relationships My reasons? In order to function effectivel
56、y in the adult world, we need good role models to show us how to behave and react. To be sure, you can learn a great deal from the opposite sex, and in the same cases, you may learn all you need to know. But in most cases, there is no real substitute for a good samesex role model to give a child the
57、 best chance at complete and well-balanced emotional development. Perhaps the most important lesson we learn from our samesex parents are how to relate both to people of the same sex and also to those of the opposite sex. Thus, sons need a strong male role model to learn how men deal with each other
58、 and with women. Similarly, daughters need a strong female model to understand how women relate to each other and to men.68. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. People like to talk to their parents.B. People change their jobs very often.C People are sharing the roles of the opposite sexes.
59、D. People are getting used to living with single parents.69. According to the passage we know that a boy living with his mother only may_.A. be in trouble communicating with the motherB. bless confident in getting on with other peopleC. be lacking in close talking relation between themD. be more anx
60、ious to know how to behave and react70.In order to promote childrens healthy mental development _.A. they need role models from parents of both sexes to followB. they should be given better chances for developmentC. they should not live in a single parent familyD. they need both parents sincere conc
61、ern71.The best title for the passage might be_.A. Childrens Emotional DevelopmentB. The Values of Sex Role ModelsC. Interchangeability Between Men and WomenD. The importance of Having A Same-Sex ParentEUnlike modem animal scientists, dinosaur scientists cannot sit on a hill side and use telescopes t
62、o watch dinosaurs in order to know how they lived and whether they were good parents. Instead, they have to search hard for information from dinosaurs fossils because dinosaurs died out millions of years ago. Its very difficult for the scientists to reach an agreement because different results can b
63、e got from the same fossils. Many fossils of the same kind of dinosaurs have been dug out from one place. They might have formed when an entire group of dinosaurs got stuck all at once. Or they might have been the result of dinosaurs getting stuck one after another over a course of a few centuries.
64、Thus we can say that dinosaurs might have in the first case lived in big groups and in the second lived alone. Though there are two different results, dinosaur scientists now generally agree that at least some kinds of dinosaurs lived in big groups” .Thats pretty much settled at this point,” says Pa
65、ul Sereno. A kind of dinosaurs called Sauropods left behind tracks in the western United States that appear to run north and south, suggesting that they even moved long distances together. As to whether dinosaurs cared for their young, dinosaur scientists have turned to the closest living relatives
66、of dinosaursbirds and crocodiles-for possible models. Birds give a lot of care to their young, while crocodiles just help their young to the water. The discovered fossils of dinosaurs sitting on their eggs and staying with their young suggest that parents were taking care of their babies, but we sti
67、ll cannot say that all dinosaurs did the same. There is still a long way to go before the above questions could be answered Dinosaur scientists will have to find more proof to reach an agreement.72. Which of the following can take the place of the underlined word tracks?A. relatives B. eggs C. fossi

Half of the dinosaurs lived alone75.Which of the following is TRUE according to the 4th paragraph?A. Birds hardly p
