11、g when I was 11, I explored the towns abandoned round grain barn（谷仓）. I found a chained sliding door that was wide enough for me to pass through.Inside, there was a heavy smell of dead mice in the dark. After my eyes adjusted, I noticed a shaft (升降机井) that rose all the way to the top of the barn. On
12、 one side was a one-man elevator with a long rope and roller.I stepped onto the platform and gave the rope a drag and the elevator began sliding up the shaft, but stopped halfway. After a brief panic attack, I noticed holes in the wall at regular intervals, forming a ladder. For reasons known only t
13、o an 11-year-old, I decided it would be better to go up than down. So, with shaking hands, I began climbing the wall.After what seemed like forever, I reached the top of the shaft. I stood up, dusted myself off and foundabsolutely nothing of interest. It was just an empty room with a ladder leading
14、up to the roof. I climbed all the way up here for this? Then I noticed a fire extinguisher（灭火器）,which Id always wanted to shoot off. So this was the chance of a lifetime. I tried it, and, much to my surprise, the thing worked! It shot out a thick cloud of powder that instantly filled the room. I cou
15、ldnt breathe. I was going to choke to death, and theyd probably never even find my body.Luckily, I remembered the ladder to the roof. I climbed up, popped the straw roof and saw a bright blue sky. I suddenly realized the dust and powder pouring out of the top could draw attention. So when the dust h
16、ad settled, I climbed down and slipped out of the chained door. Im not sure if I was more excited about being alive or about not being caught, but I ran all the way back home. 21.

19、written reviews of books, music, movies, television shows, websites, video games and other products. When writing a review, concentrate on exactly what you liked or didnt like. Give examples of strengths and weaknesses, be descriptive and provide background information on an author, director, actor
20、or musician, if possible. Find professional reviews in magazines or newspapers and see how reviewers deal with their topic, but be sure to express your own voice in your review. Book Reviews Discuss an authors technique, strengths and weaknesses instead of focusing on the plot. Does the story flow?
21、Is there a strong sense of character and place? Did you stay up until dawn to finish it? Is it good reading for teenagers? What influence did it have on you and why? If youve read other books by the same author, discuss how this book compares.Movie Reviews Think of the major Oscar categories and con
22、sider the performances, music, lighting and setting, etc. Do these work together? Did some hold up while others didnt? If the movie is based on a book, discuss whether one is better than the other and why. If the movie is a remake, compare the film to its original.Remember that a well-written movie
23、review should discuss strengths and weaknesses. Some readers may not have seen a movie yet, so dont give away an exciting scene or the ending!College Reviews Begin by providing an overview of the college, including location, size and a description of the campus and/or dorm life. Think about all aspe
24、cts of your college visit. What academic, athletic and after-class programs are available? What are the students like? What makes the college different from others?

26、ngths and weaknesses.B. Plot and character.C. Programs and scenes.D. Location and description.27. Where can you probably find the passage?A. In a personal diary.B. In an official report.C. In a tourist guidebook.D. In a popular magazine.CSelf-control can make you happier not only in the long-run, bu
27、t also in the moment.The research showed that self-control isnt about giving up desires, but more about managing conflicting goals. Since most people consider highly self-controlled ones as being more task-centered, the scientists decided to find out the connection between self-control and peoples h
28、appiness to determine if being self-disciplined leaves people feel less joyful.Through a set of tests-including one that assessed 414 middle-aged participants on self-control and another that randomly interviewed volunteers on their smart phones about their mood and any desires they might be experie
29、ncing, researchers found a strong connection between higher levels of self-control and satisfaction.The smart phone experiment also showed how self-control may improve mood. Those who showed the greatest self-control reported more good moods and fewer bad ones. But this didnt appear to be linked to
30、being more able to resist temptation(诱惑)it was because they exposed themselves to fewer situations that might inspire desires in the first place. They were doing a number of things that bring them happiness and avoiding problematic desires and conflicts.That became clear in the studys last experimen
31、t, which looked into how self-control affects the way people handle goals that conflict with one another. In particular, the researchers were interested in how self-disciplined and less-disciplined people differed when it came to choosing among “virtues” and “vices” like the pleasure of eating sugar
32、 cookie vs. the pain of gaining weight. Participants were asked to list three important goal conflicts they experienced regularly and were also questioned on how they managed to balance the goals. The highly self-controlled showed an obvious difference from those with less discipline over their live
33、s. They tended to avoid creating situations in which their goals would conflict, and reported fewer instances of having to choose between short-term pleasure and long-term pain. As a result, they experienced fewer negative emotions.And self-control doesnt always mean self-denial: it may mean saving
34、now to get big payoff later. For dieters, it means making choices to avoid entering a bakery since you are more likely to buy a cupcake. Granted, self-control isnt the best way to instant satisfaction, but it may bring something even better: long-term contentment.28. According to the research, the s
35、elf-controlled people _.A. enjoy less pleasure of lifeB. focus less on completing their tasksC. make others feel less delightedD. are better solving problems and conflicts29. From the smart phone experiments, the researchers found self-controlled people _.A. like to challenge more goalsB. may have m
36、ore good moodsC. are easier to resist temptationD. are less satisfied with their life30. Different from the less-controlled ones, the highly self-controlled people_.A. rarely prefer pleasuresB. often create conflicting goalsC. like to put up with painD. stay away from negative emotions31. The underl
37、ined word self-denial in the last paragraph probably means_.A. self-sacrificeB. self-helpC. self-confidenceD. self-improvement DIn a class this past December, after I wrote some directions on the board for students about their final examination, one young woman quickly took a picture of the board us
38、ing her smart phone. When I looked in her direction, she apologized: “Sorry. Was it wrong to take a picture?”“I cant read my own handwriting ,”the young woman explained.“Its best if I take a picture of your writing so I can understand the notes.”That remark started a class-wide conversation about ta
39、king a picture instead of taking notes. For those in the photo-taking camp, motivations extended beyond their inability to comprehend their own handwriting. Some took pictures of notes because they knew their phone was a safe place to store material. They might lose paper, they reasoned, but they wo
40、uldnt lose their phones. Some took photos because they wanted to record exactly the manner in which I had noted information on the board. Others told me that during class they liked to be able to listen to the discussion attentively.Yet the use of cameras as note takers, though it may be convenient,
41、 does raise significant questions for the classroom. Is a picture an effective replacement for the process of note-taking?Instructors encourage students to take notes because the act of doing so is more than merely recording necessary informationit helps prepare the way for understanding. Encouragin
42、g students to take notes may be an old-fashioned instructional method, but just because a method has a long history doesnt mean its out of date. Writing things down engages a students brain in listening, visual, and kinesthetic（触觉的）learninga view supported by a longstanding research. The act of writ
43、ing down information enables a person to begin committing it to memory, and to process and combine it, establishing the building blocks of learning new concepts.Taking a picture does indeed record the information, but it deletes some of the necessary mental engagement that taking notes employs. So c
44、an the two be equally effective?Im not sure how to measure the effectiveness of either method. For now, I allow students to take notes however they see fithandwritten or photographedbecause I figure that some notes, no matter the method of note-taking, are better than none.32. The woman apologized i

Students refuse to take notes by hand because_.A. they are unable to take notesB. they are more likely to lose notesC. they are interested in usi
46、ng their phonesD. they have a good memory of teachers instructions34. According to the passage, taking notes by hand_.A. requires students to think independentlyB. is unsuitable for students to learn new ideasC. helps students actively participate in learningD. proves to be an old and useless learni
