(2016·全国Ⅲ，C)If you are a fruit grower—or would like to become one—take advantage of Apple Day to see what's around.It's called Apple Day but in practice it's more like Apple Month.The day itself is on October 21，but since it has caught on，events now spread out over most of October around Britain.Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see，and often taste，a wide variety of apples.To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets，it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence，such as Decio which was grown by the Romans.Although it doesn't taste of anything special，it's still worth a try，as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的) Cat's Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions.One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette，but you'll need a warm，sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it，so it's a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.At the events，you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions，and because these are family affairs，children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games.Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit，including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园)．If you want to have a real orchard experience，try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale，near Faversham in Kent.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了英国的苹果节。

(·安徽，D)There are an extremely large number of ants worldwide.Each individual (个体的) ant hardly weighs anything，but put together they weigh roughly the same as all of mankind.They also live nearly everywhere，except on frozen mountain tops and around the poles.For animals their size，ants have been astonishingly successful，largely due to their wonderful social behavior.In colonies (群体) that range in size from a few hundred to tens of millions，they organize their lives with a clear division of labor.Even more amazing is how they achieve this level of organization.Where we use sound and sight to communicate，ants depend primarily on pheromones (外激素)，chemicals sent out by individuals and smelled or tasted by fellow members of their colony.When an ant finds food，it produces a pheromone that will lead others straight to where the food is.When an individual ant comes under attack or is dying，it sends out an alarm pheromone to warn the colony to prepare for a conflict as a defense unit.In fact，when it comes to the art of war，ants have no equal.They are completelyfearless and will readily take_on a creature much larger than themselves，attacking in large groups and overcoming their target.Such is their devotion to the common good of the colony that not only soldier ants but also worker ants will sacrifice their lives to help defeat an enemy.Behaving in this selfless and devoted manner，these little creatures have survived on Earth for more than 140 million years，far longer than dinosaurs.Because they think as one，they have a collective (集体的) intelligence greater than you would expect from its individual parts.【语篇解读】本文是说明文。

(2020·四川，C)Across Britain，burnt toast will be served to mothers in bed this morning as older sons and daughters rush to deliver their supermarket bunches of flowers.But，according to a new study，we should be placing a higher value on motherhood all year.Mothers have long known that their home workload was just as heavy as paid work.Now，the new study has shown that if they were paid for their parental labours，they would earn as much as ￡172,000 a year.The study looked at the range of jobs mothers do，as well as the hours they are working，to determine the figure.This would make their yearly income ￡30,000 more than the Prime Minister earns.By analysing the numbers，it found the average mother works 119 hours a week,40 of which would usually be paid at a standard rate and 79 hours as overtime.After questioning 1,000 mothers with children under 18，it found that，on most days，mums started their routine work at 7 am and finished at around 11 pm.To calculate just how much mothers would earn from that labour，it suggested some of the roles that mums could take on，including housekeeper，parttime lawyer，personal trainer and entertainer.Being a parttime lawyer，at ￡48.98 an hour，would prove t o be the most profitable of the “mum jobs”，with psychologist(心理学家) a close second.It also asked mothers about the challenges they face，with 80 per cent making emotional(情感的) demand as the hardest thing about motherhood.Over a third of mums felt they needed more training and around half said they missed going out with friends.The study shows mothers matter all year long and not just on Mother's Day.The emotional，physical and mental energy mothers devote to their children can be neverending，but children are also sources of great joy and happiness.Investing(投入) in time for parenting and raising relationships is money well spent.【语篇解读】这是一篇有关母亲的奉献的文章，在母亲节这一天，每个人都会对母亲做一些事，比如送一束花等等，然而作者认为，母亲这一职业值得全年的关注，因为它包含太多。

(天津，C)When 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 job 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 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 (心理学家) who made the discovery.“And because they felt good about themselves，others felt good about them.”Vaillant's study followed these males in great detail.Interviews were repeated at ages 25,31 and 47.Under Vaillant，the researchers compared the men's mental-healthscores 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 the 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 researchers 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 help 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 isn't 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 and to love one's work.”【语篇解读】一项研究表明，小时候劳动的男孩长大后更容易享受快乐的生活。

(xx·北京，C)California Condor's Shocking RecoveryCalifornia condors are North America's largest birds，with windlength of up to 3 meters.In the 1980s，electrical lines and lead poisoning(铅中毒) nearly drove them to dying out.Now，electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue these big birds.In the late 1980s，the last few condors were taken from the wild to be bred(繁殖)．Since 1992，there have been multiple reintroductions to the wild，and there are now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona，Utah and Baja in Mexico.Electrical lines have been killing them off.“As they go in to rest for the night，they just don't see the power lines，” says Bruce Rideout of San Dieg o Zoo.Their wings can bridge the gap between lines，resulting in electrocution(电死) if they touch two lines at once.So scientists have e up with a shocking idea.Tall poles，placed in large training areas，teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful but undeadly electric shock.Before the training was introduced,66% of setfree birds died of electrocution.This has now dropped to 18%.Lead poisoning has proved more difficult to deal with.When condors eat dead bodies of other animals containing lead，they absorb large quantities of lead.This affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds，and can lead to kidney(肾) failure and death.So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo，where they are treated with calcium EDTA，a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days.This work is starting to pay off.The annual death rate for adult condors has dropped from 38% in xx to 5.4% in 2011.Rideout's team thinks that the California condors' average survival time in the wild is now just under eight years.“Although these measures are not effectiveforever，they are vital for now，” he says.“They are truly good birds that are worth every effort we put into recovering them.”【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

(2015·陕西，D)Parents who help their children with homework may actually be bringing down their school grades.Other forms of parental_involvement，including volunteering at school and observing a child's class，also fail to help，according to the most recent study on the topic.The findings challenge a key principle of modern parenting(养育子女) where schools expect them to act as partners in their children's education.Previous generations concentrated on getting children to school on time，fed，dressed and ready to learn.Keith Robinson，the author of the study，said，“I really don't know if the public is ready for this but there are some ways parents can be involved in their kids' education that leads to declines in their academic performance.One of the things that were consistently negative was parents' help with homework.” Robinson suggested that may be because parents themselves struggle to understand the tasks.“They may either not remember the material their kids are studying now，or in some cases never learnt it themselves，but they're still offering advice.”Robinson assessed parental involvement performance and found one of the most damaging things a parent could do was to punish their children for poor marks.In general，about 20% of parental involvement was positive，about 45% negative and the rest statistically insignificant.Common sense suggests it was a good thing for parents to get involved because “children with good academic success do have involved parents”，admitted Robinson.But he argued that this did not prove parental involvement was the root cause of that success.“A big surprise was that AsianAmerican parents whose kids are doing so well in school hardly involved.They took a more reasonable approach，conveyi ng to their children how success at school could improve their lives.”【语篇解读】最近的一项研究表明，父母帮助孩子做作业以及其他形式的参与会使孩子的成绩下降。
