A 3-foot-long black-and-white snake twisted around his left arm and had just bitten his little finger.“The babysitter (a person taking care of children while their parents are away for a short time) was frightened to death,” said Teddy’s father, David Lasry, who, along with his wife, Evelyn, was at work w hen the snake appeared about 4:00 pm.The horrified babysitter called 911 and the building’s doorman. The doorman and two cable TV workers helped take the snake off the boy’s arm and put it in a garbage bag. Police rushed Teddy to Mount Sinai Medical Center, where he spent two hours attached to a heart monitor as a precaution in case the snake was poisonous. It wasn’t. Experts at the snakebite treatment center at Jacobi Medical Center in the Bronx, where policemen took the snake, found out it was a non-poisonous California king snake.But how did it end up in Teddy’s bed?A little detective work determined that the snake had escaped two weeks ago from its cage in the apartment of a doctor whose family lives four floors below the Lasrys. The apologetic owner said his son’s pet snake likely traveled up the water pipes and into his neighbor’s apartment. “It’s a very gentle, very harmless snake,” he said. “It’s handled by our family all the time.”David Lasry believed the pet was simply hungry after two weeks of wandering. Evelyn said her son seems to have overcome his fright by thinking of himself as a hero cowboy as he rode in the back of the police car to the hospital.“I told Teddy he’s a pretty snake, a nice pet snake who got out of his cage,” Evelyn said. “B ut he asked, ‘Why did he bite my finger, Mamma?’ And I said, ‘Because he saw that you are a big boy, Teddy, in your cowboy outfit and he got scared.’”(341 words)24.

These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with child-care.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s D ay people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery. On these days, famil ies get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of the gift that is important, but it is “the thought” that counts. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakeries, telephone companies, and other stores do a lot of business during these holidays. (238 words)28.

Structural differences between the brains of 85 people have been measured and linked with the four main categories of personality types, which were classified as “novelty seeking”, characterized by impulsive actions; “harm avoidance”, marked by pessimism and shyness; “reward dependence”, with an addictive personality; and “persistence”, who are people tending to be diligent, hard-working and perfectionists.The researchers said the brain differences are structural and can be measured in the size of specific regions of the brain that appear to be linked with each of the four personality types. For instance, people defined as novelty-seeking personalities had a structurally bigger area in the brain while people with harm-avoidance personalities had significantly smaller volumes of tissue in brain regions.The fact that characteristics are reflected in specific structural differences is useful to know, for instance, when it comes to understanding a child’s behavior and choosing the right approach so that somebody who is, for example, particularly timid, might be helped through education and development.There is no point shouting at a child who is very shy and telling them off, because it does not come naturally to them to put themselves forward. But actually knowing there is a biological basis for this helps educators or parents to use the right approach to help a child to compensate.People who have a reward-dependence personality could, for example, be helped at an early age because they are at risk of turning to drink, drugs or food if they do not get the family support and encouragement they need.“This study shows that personality characteristics are something you are born with, but their full expression can be adjusted during development with the right approach,” said Professor Ve nneri, who carried out the study with colleagues from the University of Parma in Italy and Washington University in St Louis. If you know it’s not something you do but something you are, you can change the environment to reduce the risk. Knowing that someone has such a predisposition (体质) could help them adopt preventive strategies and avoid situations where they might seek rewards which could be potentially harmful. (388 words)32.

They are often shouted at and scolded.B. They can naturally put themselves forward.C. They structurally have a smaller brain region.D. They are too timid to be educated and helped.34. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. People have chances to change their personality types.B. Scientists have identified four different personality types.C. Structural differences in the brain have effects on education.D. Personality types are related to structural differences in the brain.35.
