18、37 the apron strings connecting us, Nicole, eager to 38 independence, tries to loosen my grasp. What results in is a（an） 39 mother-daughter, push-me, pull-you kind of tango. For the past two years, it has gone like this.My question: Have you thought of taking an advanced-placement class（高阶课程）so that
19、 you can earn college credit?Nicoles 40 : No, Im not interested in that. I bit my lip a few times and Nicole shot me a few glares.Two months ago, she was 41 to a great university. However, I was still the mother having a 42 time letting go. The night before the introductory meeting of the university
20、, I had read the course catalogue carefully and 43 courses which I thought looked good. We met on the campus the next afternoon, and Nicoles face 44 with excitement. I have had my entire schedule figured out, she said Already? I was astonished, 45 she should have discussed it with me. I examined the
21、 schedule. Nicole hadnt taken a（an） 46 one of the courses I had suggested. Every course she had chosen 47 suited her interests.

26、pendence.阅读理解（共15小题；5665每小题1.5分；6670每小题2分；满分25分）AWhen John was growing up, other kids felt sorry for him. His parents always had him weeding the garden, carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers. But when John reached adulthood, he was better off than his childhood playmates. He had more jo
27、b satisfaction, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier. Far happier.These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston. The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who
28、 had not Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence（能力）and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society, said George Vaillant, the psychologist who made the discovery. And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.Vaillants study followed these male
29、s in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the mens mental-health scores with their boyhood-activity scores. Points were awarded for part-time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems.The link between what t
30、he men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp. Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people, five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed. The resea
31、rchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out. Working-at any age-is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence-the underpinnings（基础）of emotional health. They also he
32、lp him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work isnt everything. As Tolstoy once said, One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves
33、and to love ones work.56. What do we know about John?A. He enjoyed his career and marriage.B. He had few childhood playmates.C. He received little love from his family.D.

Clear and definiteD. sudden and rapid60. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. competent adults know more abou
36、t love than work.B. Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.C. Love brings more joy to people than work does.D. Independence is the key to ones success.BGiven Australias size and the fact that early settlements were far apart, Australian society is remarkably homogeneous（同种类的）. Its c
37、itizens are fundamentally prosperous and the way of life in the major cities and towns is much the same however many miles divide them. It takes a sharp ear to identify regional accents.However, there is some difference in lifestyle between city dwellers（居住者）and the country people. Almost 90 percent
38、 of the population lives in the fast-paced cities along the coast and has little more than a passing familiarity with the desert. The major cities preserve pockets of（少量的）colonial（殖民的）heritage, but the overall impression is modern, with new buildings reflecting the countrys youth. In contrast, the r
39、ural communities tend to be slow-moving and conservative. For many years, Australia was said to have ridden on the sheeps back, a reference to wool being the countrys main money earner. However, the wool industry is no longer dominant. Much of Australias relatively sound economy is now achieved from
40、 natural coal- and wheat, and by being the largest diamond producer in the world. Newer industries such as tourism and wine making are also increasingly important. Australians are generally friendly and relaxed, with a self-deprecating（自嘲式的）sense of humor. On the whole, Australia is a society withou
41、t hierarchies（等级制度）, an attitude generally held to stem from（源于）its prisoner beginnings.Yet, contrary to widespread belief, very few Australians have true prisoner origins. Within only one generation of the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788, Australia had become a nation of immigrants. Originally c
42、oming almost entirely from the British Isles, today one in three Australians comes from elsewhere. Australias liberal postwar immigration policies led to an influx（涌入）of survivors from war-torn Europe, most notably Greeks, Italians, Poles and Germans.The emphasis has shifted in recent years and toda
43、y the majority of new immigrants are from Southeast Asia. Today Australia is a blend of nations and although some racism exists, it has generally been a successful experiment and the country is justifiably proud to have one of the most harmonious multicultural communities in the world.61. What does
44、the writer mean by saying It takes a sharp ear to identify regional accents. in the first paragraph?A. Australians speak standard English with no local accents whatsoever.B. You have to practice a lot to learn to understand the different accents.C. The Australian regional accents are very difficult
45、to understand indeed.D. There is not much difference between the accents in different areas of Australia.62. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Most Australians have ancestors who were prisoners.B. The Australian economy is dependent on sheep exports.C. Almost all
46、the people living in Australia come from Europe.D. The pace of life is different in the city and in the country.63.
