10、ot easy being a teenager(13至19岁青少年)nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you youll still
11、 be there for him when he needs you.Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving; consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, dont insist he tell you whats on his mind.
12、 The more you insist, the more likely that hell clam up. Instead, let him attempt to solve things by himself. At the same time, remind him that youre always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenagers privacy. Never read him his mail or listen in on personal conversi
13、ons.Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the familys telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members
14、 can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation(节制). Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part time job21. The main purpose of the text is to tell parents .A. how to get along with a teenagerB. how to resp
15、ect a teenagerC. how to help a teenager grow upD. how to understand a teenager22. What does the phrase “clam up” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. become excited B. refuse to talkC. show respect D. seek help23. The last paragraph is about how to teach a teenager_.A. to answer the phone quicklyB. to pa
16、y for his own telephoneC. to share the phone quicklyD. to use the phone in a sensible way24. What should parents do in raising a teenager according to the text?A. Give him advice only when necessaryB. Not allow him to learn driving or take drugsC. Let him have his own telephoneD. Not talk about pers
17、onal things with himBOdland remembers like it was yesterday working in an expensive French restaurant in Denver. The ice cream he was serving fell onto the white dress of a rich and important woman.Thirty years have passed, but Odland cant get the memory out of his mind, nor the womans kind reaction
18、(反应). She was shocked, regained calmness and, in a kind voice, told the young Odland. “Its OK. It wasnt your fault.” When she left the restaurant, she also left the future Fortune 500 CEO(总裁)with a life lesson: You can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she treats the waiter.Odland isnt the
19、only CEO to have made this discovery. Rather, it seems to be one of those few laws of the land that every CEO learns on the way up. Its hard to get a dozen CEOs to agree about anything, but most agree with the Waiter Rule. They say how others treat the CEO says nothing. But how others treat the wait
20、er is like a window into the soul.Watch out for anyone who pulls out the power card to say something like, “I could buy this place and fire you,” or “I know the owner and I could have you fired.” Those who say such things have shown more about their character(人品)than about their wealth and power.The
21、 CEO who came up with it, or at least first wrote it down, is Raytheon CEO Bill Swanson. He wrote a best-selling book called Swansons Unwritten Rules of Management.“A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice person,” Swanson says. “I will never offer a job to the
22、 person who is sweet to the boss but turns rude to someone cleaning the tables.”25.What happened after Odland dropped the ice cream onto the womans dress?A. He was fired.B. The woman comforted him.C. He was blamed.D. The woman left the restaurant at once.26.Odland leaned one of his life lessons from
23、 _.A. an article in FortuneB. the advice given by the CEOsC. his experience as a waiter.D. an interesting best-selling book27.According to the text, most CEOs have the same opinion about _.A. the Waiter RuleB. the Management RulesC. Swansons bookD. Fortune 500 companies28.From the text we can learn
24、that _.A. one should be nicer to important peopleB. CEOs often show their power before othersC. CEOs often have meals in expensive restaurantsD. one should respect others no matter who they areC Music died here last spring, or rather, it was killed by members of the school committee who ignored the
25、importance of music and drama as part of the high-school curriculum (课程).The committee decided that teaching students how to take a standardized test is more important than a curriculum in which students can explore their interests in the arts as well as academics. Because the school system is runni
26、ng out of funding, it needs to make sure that students pass the test or even more money will be lost. If students fail the state standardized test,it is not the fault of drama and music classesthey are failing because the “academic” classes are not sufficient (充足的).It is painful to think of how many
27、 students will be discouraged from singing, acting, and playing instruments because school programs are no longer offered. Many families cannot afford private music lessons, and many potential musicians and artists may not find their calling if they are not exposed to it in school. The fact that the
28、 school committee thinks the arts are not worth the investment will certainly make some students believe the arts are not worth their time or support and the cycle will continue.Teaching for a test does not shape students into complete, well-rounded people. It blocks the natural sense to create and
29、express feelings through artthere is more to life than the analytical thinking that math and English provide. What happens after a test? Sure, a student might graduate, but they will have limited knowledgecertainly not a good preparation for the real world.29. Music and drama are not included in the
30、 high school curriculum mainly because _.A. the school committee pays no attention to themB. the school is afraid of losing financial supportC. the students are not interested in both of themD. the state standardized test is more important30. We can learn that music and art can _.A. motivate student
31、s in creativity and expressionB. make students round-shaped people in futureC. provide students with analytical thinkingD. prevent students graduation from high school31. The best title of the passage can be _.A. Who killed music and drama?B. Can curriculum go without music?C. Why is music so import
32、ant?D. How to prepare for the real world?DThe scene in the Hollywood movie The Day After Tomorrow, where global warming could soon turn the global climate (气候) into a new ice age, may never occur, according to new research.The next ice age could be 15,000 years away, say European scientists who last
33、 month announced a continuous record of 740,000 years of climate data (数据) obtained from the Antarctic ice. Scientists from 10 nations have now almost completely drilled through a 3,000-meter depth of ice high in the Antarctic mainland. They figure out that the area where summer temperatures can fal
34、l to 40, has at least 900,000 years of snowfalls, kept as neatly as the growth rings of a tree. And the ice and air caught in each layer(层) have begun to answer questions about the climates in the past.The results show that there have been eight ice ages in the past 740, 000 years and eight warmer p
35、eriods. And by comparing the pattern of global conditions today with those of the past, the researchers reported in Nature that the present warm period could last another 15, 000 years.Research suggests that there is a very close connection between greenhouse gas levels and global average temperatur
36、es. It also shows that carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) levels are the highest for at least 440,000 years. If people say to you: the greenhouse effect is a good thing because we would go into an ice age otherwise, our data say no, a new ice age is not hanging over our heads,” said Eric Wolff from the British A
37、ntarctic Survey. Now we have eight examples of how the climate goes in and out of ice ages and you can learn what the rules are that go into the climate models that tell us about the future.Scientists found that whenever temperatures rose in the frozen record, so did carbon dioxide level. In 440,000
38、 years we have never seen greenhouse gas get as thick as it is today, said Dr Wolff.32. In drilling through the ice in Antarctica, scientists have found that_. A. the lowest temperature there is 40 B. snowfalls are kept in certain patterns C. the ice has existed for 15,000 years D. the depth of ice
39、is 3,000 meters33. The information of the global climate conditions in the past can be obtained through_. A. separating carbon dioxide from the air B. examining the growth rings of trees C. studying the ice and air caught in each layer D. comparing temperatures in different areas34. We can infer fro
40、m Eric Wolffs words that_. A. there is something wrong with the data B. greenhouse effect is always a bad thing C. greenhouse gas will get thick in the future D. a new ice age will not come in the near future35. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Research over the Antarctic area. B. Ho
41、llywood movies and the global climate. C. Report on the eight ice ages in the past.D. Warm period to last about 15, 000 years.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。May the first is an important date in the college admission process in the United States.

Acceptance rates at the top colleges this year were lower than ever. 36 These days, college applicants are applying to more colleges because online and common applic
43、ations make the process easier. 37 On the other hand, deciding students for top colleges to accept can be difficult because it takes much time. Students may not like being put on waiting lists.
