There is a household poem in ancient China saying that "kind mothers are always prepared to make clothes for their departing children", which contains the deep love of mothers. Surely enough, it's a universal truth. Once I quarreled bitterly with my mum as she tried hard to give me some suggestions about exams, while I rejected it and behaved rudely. The next day after school, uneasily and slowly I started to make my way towards home. However, quite out of expectation, my mum, my dear mum was there at the gate in the heavy rain, waiting for me. I rushed forward and soon found myself hugging her, moved and apologetic. From then on, I fully understood the immeasurable love my mum furnished me with. No matter how badly her kid treats her, no matter how many times her kid has ignored her advice, and no matter how childish and stubborn her kid is, she never fails to be tolerant, guiding and coaching her kid with her selfless love. Remember, your mother is the one who's always behind you and who's always supporting you. So just sincerely love them back. 160

Our visits last about an hour, playing board games and cards with the residents 11 we're there.You can watch all the movies and TV shows you want about "life back then", but nothing 12 with talking to the people who were actually there. Just hearing their stories has 13 me in a way never thought possible.Whether it was talking to 98-year-old "Hurricane Hilda" about her glory days 14 a roller skater or chatting with Lou about the times she danced with a famous actor, I was completely impressed by every single 15 the residents wanted to share with me.Even the residents who don't have 16 memories make the experience fulfilling. I remember visiting Mrs. Robinson. She couldn't 17 much about her past, but she told me she'd 18 forget how kind I was just to listen to her "rambling (漫谈)". It made me realize that it's the 19 things that make life worth living. That's something I won't 20 anytime.If there's one thing I've realized in my three years of visiting Cantata, it's that 21 --- just being there---means more than anything to many of the residents. And despite how 22 our lives are, there's always time to make them happy.For me, it feels great to be a 23 of happiness, a smile on a bad day or a(n) 24 for old memories.

Meryl won her second Best Actress Oscar for her performance.Out of Africa ( 1985 )Meryl is Karen Blixen, a Danish woman living in Kenya in the early 20th century.

The film is based on the memoirs(回忆录) of the real Karen Blixen.A Cry in the Dark (1995)This is based on the tree-life case of the disappearance of baby Azaria.

Roger Ebert thinks Meryl's best film is Sophie's Choice.D. Mamma Mia! is about the story of the pop group ABBA.BThe singer, Mick Jagger, of the Rolling Stones sings a song that tells people they can't always get what they want but if we try sometimes we can get what we need. The past years in my life my parents have told me this saying many times. I've always complained about the quote (引语). Although over time I have told myself to learn from it.This year my girlfriend flew off to college in West Palm, Florida. This has been a killer for me because I haven't been able to see her and she is having a rough time in school. The last two months have been hard but we are working through it. I have been trying to get my dad to buy me a plane ticket to go down there. My dad told me if I brought him some money he would help me pay for the ticket. I started to complain to him because I had no way of getting any money to give him. I spent several days and nights thinking of ways to earn money to go to see my girlfriend. I finally came to the conclusion that I would get a job and work hard to earn some money to give to my dad. I applied to Safeway and I ended up getting the job.I have been working at Safeway for about a month now and work hard to earn money to go to see my girlfriend. The other day my mum had surprised me and told me that she asked her boss if she could use their business miles (旅费) to buy me a ticket down to Florida for two weeks. I was very thankful and told her I would help pay for anything that I have to. The thought of me working hard and getting a job showed my mum that I really cared and was trying my best to be a successful person. I believe that you can't always get what you want but if you try sometimes, you get what you need.35. The author's parents often told him the saying quoted from the song because____.A. they expected him to learn from the singerB. they tried to educate him to do things for himselfC. he liked to complain to them about his lifeD. he always wanted to get everything he wanted36. What does the word "killer" underlined in the second paragraph refer to?A. A person who kills purposely.B. Something that is very difficult.C. Something that is quite troublesome.D. A person who treats women very badly.37. What can we infer from the passage?A. The author was lazy and unwilling to work hard.B. The author's father was too mean to give him money.C. The author's actual action won support from his mother.D. The author was unable to tear himself away from his girlfriend.38. By writing the passage, the author tries to show_____.A. we can do nothing without moneyB. fathers are strict while mothers are kindC. it's hard for parents to bring up their childrenD. we should try to rely on ourselves for everythingCParents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son:suddenly he seemed to be talking more to his friends than to his parents. "The door to his room is always shut," Joanna noted.Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. "She used to cuddle up (蜷伏) with me on the sofa and talk," said Mark. "Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which."Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what's on their minds. "In fact, parents are first on the list," said Michael Riera,author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. "This completely changes during the teen years," Riera explained. "They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last."Parents who know what's going on in their teenagers' lives are in the best position to help them.To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break,for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend ,not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.39. "The door to his room is always shut" suggests that the son____.A. keeps himself away from his parentsB. is angry with his parentsC. begins to dislike his parentsD. is always busy with his studies40. What troubles Tina and Mark most is that_____.A. their daughter isn't as lovely as beforeB. their daughter has grown up so quicklyC. they don't know what to say to their daughterD. they can't read their daughter's mind exactly41. Which of the following best explains" the wall of silence" in the last paragraph?A. Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.B. Teenagers talk much about their own lives.C. Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.D. Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.42. What can be learned from the passage?A. Parents should try to understand their teenagers.B. Parents are unhappy with their growing children.C. Parents should force their children to talk with them.D. Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.DEating at a slow speed may help reduce hunger, the U.S. researchers said on Monday. Previous research suggests that the ability to control energy intake may be affected by the speed at which we eat, and a high eating rate may damage the relationship between the sensory signals and processes that control how much we eat.In order to learn more about the link between eating speed and energy intake, researchers examined how eating speed affects calories consumed during a meal in both normal-weight subjects as well as overweight or obese subjects.In the new study, a group of normal-weight subjects and a group of overweight or obese subjects were asked to consume two meals in a controlled environment. All subjects ate one meal slowly, took small bites, chewed thoroughly, and paused and put the spoon down between bites, and ate a second meal qu. ickly, took large bites, chewed quickly, and did not pause and put the spoon down. At the conclusion of the study, the researchers found only normal-weight subjects had a statistically significant reduction in caloric consumption by eating slowly. "A lack of statistical significance in the overweight and obese group may be partly due to the fact that they consumed less food during both eating conditions compared to the normal-weight subjects," Professor Meena Shah said, "it is possible that the overweight and obese subjects felt more self-conscious, and thus ate less during the study."Despite the differences in caloric consumption between the normal-weight and overweight and obese subjects, the study found some similarities. Both groups felt less hungry later on after the slow meal than after the fast meal, which indicates that greater hunger suppression (抑制) among both groups could be expected from a meal consumed more slowly. Also, both the normal-weight and overweight or obese groups consumed more water during the slow meal. "The higher water intake during the slow eating condition may have affected food consumption," said Shah.

And if they had paused to think about it first, they probably would have acted differently. Pausing doesn't pay off just when you speak. Scientific studies have shown that making a habit of pausing before you do something can actually have a big impact on how your life turns out. In making decisions we rely on two areas of the brain. One area creates and processes emotions; the other governs logical thought. The type of decision, how we feel about it, and how prepared we are to handle it help determine which brain area has the most influence.But our age also plays an important role. Thinking through the consequences of one's actions is actually harder for teens because the area controlling logical thought is not fully developed until around age 25. This is why teens often feel an intense emotional drive to act impulsivelymit's how their brains are structured! Though this tendency to act without considering the outcomes can lead to problematic situations, impulsivity during the developmental years evolves because it makes teens more open to new experiences and ideas. This openness helps teens to become independent adults.The key to making impulsivity work for youminstead of against you~is to train your brain by practicing pausing. This doesn't mean you stop taking risks or being open to new experiences. But you won't know if the risk is worth it until you think it through. Deciding to take a risk based on logic shows self-control, not impulsivity.What are different ways to pause? You might take a deep breath, count to 10, or ask "Is this worth it?" different strategies work for different people. Whatever works for you, keep doing it!By practicing pausing, you can actually change your brain. This means that over time, pausing, instead of immediately reacting, becomes your "natural" response.And with this change, people are on their way to enjoying the life rewards that come with high levels of self-control---even if they weren't natural-born pausers!47. What challenges teenagers?A. Giving natural response.B. Making logical decision.C. Acting before thorough thinking.D. Choosing brain-training strategies.48. An impulsive person tends to____.A. consider or accept new ideasB. change ideas frequentlyC. think through a risk in advanceD. show high level of self-control49. According to the passage, by training one's brain, one can____.A. stop taking risksB. fully develop one's brainC. become more open to new experienceD. reduce the influence of emotional drive50. What is the best title for the passage?A. Push the Pause ButtonB. Impulsivity WorksC. Discover the Brain FunctionD.

At last, he added, "If you are optimistic, things you want may happen to you!"Warmth rushed through my soul. I suddenly found the sun shining again when I stepped out of his office.With the teacher's help, I eventually got over my depression.

On just his second day on the job, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio gave more than one million students the day off, as a winter storm dropped nearly two feet of snow. The poor conditions were made worse by high winds and temperatures well below freezing. Thousands of flights were delayed or canceled, and many people couldn’t make it back to work after the winter holiday.While the La Guardia and Newark airports in the New York area were operating normally, the conditions at JFK airport were so bad that all flights were stopped for at least four hours. De Blasio said December 2010 storm left his neighborhood buried in snow for three days. He promised that this time, it wouldn’t take that long to get the city cleaned up and working again. About 1700 special snow trucks hit the streets of New York on Thursday night, and they continued to work overtime. The situation was serious in many other areas. Boston received more than a foot of snow, and more was expected on Friday. About 350 miles northwest of New York City, a 71-year-old woman froze to death.

Seven more deaths in the Midwest were blamed on the storm.Another storm could arrive as early as Monday.。

(A)Several years ago I was diagnosed with cancer. It was the mo st difficult time I have ever faced. I think it was my sense of hu mor that allowed me to hold onto my sanity (心智健全). Like many people who have gone through chemotherapy (化疗), I lost all of my hair, being bald as a golf ball. I always had enjoyed wearing hats, so I ordered several special hats with t he hair already attached. It was easy and I never had to worry about how my hair looked.I have always been a big golf fan. At one point during my can cer treatments, my husband John and I decided to get away fr om the cold Minnesota winter and took a trip to , . There wasa Senior PGA Tour even called “The Tradition” being played, and that seemed like just the ticket to lift my spirits.The first day of the tournament brought out a huge crowd. It w as a beautiful day, and I was in heaven, I was standing and w atching my three favorite golfers in the world approach the tee box (开球区): Jack Nicklaus, Raymond Floyd and Tom Weiskopf.Just as they arrived at the tee, the unimaginable happened. A huge gust of wind came up from out of nowhere and blew my hat and hair right off my head and into the middle of the fairw ay (球道)! The thousands of people lining the fairway fell into an aw kward silence, all eyes on me. Even my three favorite golfers were watching me, as my hair was in their flight path. I was as hamed! Embarrassed as I was, I knew I couldn’t just stand the re. Someone had to do something to get things moving again. So I took a deep breath and out into the middle of the fairway.I took hold of my hat and hair, put them back on my head as best I could. Then I turned to the golfers and loudly announce d, “Gentlemen, the wind is blowing from left to right.”They said the laughter could be heard all the way to the ninet eenth hole.1. What made the author remain mentally healthy even in herillness?A. The Tradition.B. The treatment.C. Her family.D. Her humor.2. The underlined phrase in Para. 3 “in heaven” probably mea ns “___”.A. scaredB. embarrassedC. puzzledD. excited3. Why did the author go into the fairway to pick up her hat and hair?A. To amuse the golfers.B. To give a weather report.C. To have the game restarted.D. To draw others’ attention.4. We can know from the text that the author ___ .A. was fond of wearing hatsB. was an excellent golferC. planed to live inD. felt worried her hair(B)Food and drink makers are adding caffeine (咖啡因) to a growing number of products. Is it safe for kids to cons ume these products?You may have heard adults say they can’t get going in the mo rning without a cup of coffee. One reason why they may feel that way is that coffee contains caffeine, a substance (物质) known to improve and increase energy. Caffeine occurs n aturally in coffee, tea, and cocoa beans, which are used to ma ke chocolate. But now food makers are adding caffeine to ma ny products, from popcorn and potato chips to water. “It’s pos sible for all of this caffeine consumption to add up and becom e dangerous,” says Virginia Stallings, a doctor at the Children’s of .Studies show that too much caffeine can cause inability to sle ep, and a racing heartbeat. What’s more, caffeine is habit-forming. Those who consume it regularly and stop suddenly may experience headaches and feel tired.One of the biggest problems is the large amount of caffeine a dded to so-called energy drinks, like Red Bull. A 12-ounce can of cola has about 35 milligrams of caffeine. A simil ar serving of Red Bull contains more than triple (三倍) that amount. Emergency-room visits related to energy-drink consumption were up from 10,068 visits in 2007 to 20,7 83 in 2011.Teenagers should be aware of caffeine’s effects on health an d on the brain. Take, for example, teenagers who consume ca ffeine to stay awake and study for a test. The effect? Researc h shows they may remember less of what they just studied.So what can be done to protect young people from the harmfu l effects of caffeine? Michael Jacobson of the Center for Scien ce in the Public Interest, says the FDA needs to set limits on c affeine, especially in energy drinks. The amount of caffeine sh ould be printed on food labels to warn consumers. Doctors sa y kids should avoid caffeine. If you need extra energy, try thes e natural methods instead: eating right, exercising, and getting plenty of sleep.5. According to the text, it’s dangerous to add more ___ to drin ks.A. teaB. chocolateC. yoghurtD. caffeine6. What should the FDA do in protecting the consumers?A. Draw up a project about physical exercise.B. Forbid kids from having water with caffeine.C. Create a set of standards on caffeine products.D. Not allow energy drinks to appear in the market.7. What can we learn from the text?A. Cola has much more caffeine the Red Bull.B. More people are suffering from energy drinks.C. Drinking enough Red Bull can help sleep well.D. Having too much caffeine can improve memory.8. The text is written mainly for those ___ .A. who often have headachesB. who are caffeine-product loversC. who usually feel tiredD. who are food and drink makers(C)As weather cools across the , a growing number of Americans visit farms. They harvest apples, enjoy hay wagon rides and walk in the fields. These people are called “agri-tourists”. They improve the economy of rural areas and help f armers increase their profits.School children are walking in a corn field maze (迷宫). The corn is cut into tricky passageways that make it diffic ult to find a way out. The children are from Yorktown Element ary School in . They have traveled to Montpelier Farms in Pri nce George’s County which is also in . The farm is about 40 ki lometers from The White House.Debbie Pierson is the student’s teacher. “We go on these kind of field trips so that the children will have a hands-on experience of what it’s like to be on a farm,” Pierson said.

For the study, the researche rs exposed 108 college students to images of painful situation , ranging from athletes suffering sports injuries to patients rec eiving an injection. Nearly a third said that, for at least one im age, they not only had an emotional reaction, but also felt pain in the same site as the injury in the image.The researchers found that while viewing the painful images, both people who said they felt pain and those who did not sho wed activity in the emotional centers of the brain. But those w ho felt pain showed greater activity in pain-related brain regions compared with the others.“Pa tients with functional pain experience pain in the absence of an obvious disease or injury to explain their pain. This confi rms that at least some people have an actual physical reactio n when observing others being injured or expressing pain,” Dr . Stuart Derbyshire of the of , one of the researchers, told rep orters.He noted that the people reported feeling pain also tended to say that they avoided horror movies and disturbing images on the news – so as to avoid being in pain.The findings were published in the December issue of the jour nal Pain.12.
