27.
If your preschoolers turn up their noses at carrots or celery, a small reward like a sticker(贴画) for taking even a taste may help get them to eat previously disliked foods, a UK study said.
Though it might seem obvious that a reward could encourage young children to eat their vegetables, the idea is actually controversial, researchers wrote in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. That’s because some studies have shown that rewards can backfire and cause children to lose interest in foods they already liked, said Jane Wardle, a researcher at University College London who worked on the study. Verbal praise, such as “Brilliant! You’re a great vegetable taster”, did not work as well.
The study found that when parents gave their small children a sticker each time they took a “tiny taste” of a disliked vegetable, it gradually changed their attitudes. The children were also willing to eat more of the vegetables—either carrots, celery, cucumber, red pepper, cabbage or sugar snap peas—in laboratory taste tests, the study said.
Researchers randomly assigned (分派) 173 families to one of these groups. In one, parents used stickers to reward their children each time they took a tiny sample of a disliked vegetable. A second group of parents used verbal praise. The third group, where Parents used no special vegetable-promoting methods, served as a “control”. Parents in the reward groups offered their children a taste of the “target” vegetable every day for 12 days. Soon after, children in the sticker group were giving higher ratings to the vegetables—and were willing to eat more in the research lab, going from an average of 5 grams at the start to about 10 grams after the 12-day experience. The turnaround(转机) also seemed to last, with preschoolers in the sticker group still willing to eat more of the once-disliked vegetable three months later.
Why didn’t the verbal praise work? Wardle said the parents’ words may have seemed “insincere” to their children.
1. The purpose of writing the passage is .
A. to show the procedure of an experiment on children’s diet
B. to introduce a practical method of making children eat vegetables
C. to explain why children hate to eat vegetables
D. to present a proper way of verbal praise to parents
2. The underlined word “backfire” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_______”.
A. shoot from behind the back
B. make a fire in the backyard
C. produce an unexpected result
D. achieve what was planned
3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. Most children are born to dislike carrots or celery.
B. Children in the sticker group will never lose interest in eating vegetables.
C. Oral praise works quite well in encouraging children to eat vegetables.
D. It remains a question whether rewarding is a good way to get children to eat vegetables.
4. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Children like rewards, not verbal praise.
B. Parents should give up verbal praise.
C. Children are difficult to inspire.
D. Parents should praise their children in a sincere tone.

The World Health Organization says there has been a sharp increase in the number of over-weight children in developing countries. In African countries, the WHO says the number of over-weight or obese children is twice as high as it was 20 years ago.

30. Many Web sites collect personal information. Some Web sites ask for personal information before granting (许可) access. You may be asked for your full name, age, address and telephone number. Other Web sites collect information in more ways such as making a record of your Internet Protocol (IP) address and of the Web pages you visit. Web sites do this by placing one or more “cookies” on the hard drive of the computer you are using. “Cookies” are small files of text that can collect and store information such as:
● the Internet Protocol (IP) address of your computer;
● how many times you have visited the site;
● your preferences, such as a preferred language;
● your user name and password; ● items in your “shopping cart”;
● Web sites you’ve visited.
This information allows Web sites to identify(识别) you the next time you visit. This makes it unnecessary for you to identify yourself every time you visit a Web site. However, cookies also enable Web sites or marketing networks to create a profile (简介) of you based on the information you have provided, often for advertising purposes. Once the information is collected, it can be used in countless ways. It can be difficult to determine what happens to personal information on the Internet.
Obviously, the best way to protect your personal information is never giving it to a Web site, but that’s not always practical. Us ing the Internet to shop, get services and get information is convenient for many people. These activities may require the use of personal information.

31.
An American educational expert, Frederick M. Hess, says that a long summer vacation doesn’t make sense in today’s world.
This summer, 50 million kids will spend much time talking online, watching TV, playing video games and asking older brothers or sisters to take them to the supermarket. They will also be putting their academic futures at risk.
During much of the 20th century, many Americans worked in factories that did not need a college degree but still offered a high salary. Also, in the 19th century, there was no air condition. And poor hygiene (卫生) meant that crowded schools had health risks.
Things have changed. For today’s students, academic skills are key to future success. Many countries don’t give kids an American-style summer vacation. They offer no more than seven consecutive (连续的) weeks of vacation. Most American school districts offer up to 13 weeks. To compete in global marketplace, Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors.
Summer vacation also causes chal lenges for today’s families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of families had a stay-at-home mum. Now, two-thirds of American children live families where every adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be more burden than break. Someone must watch the kids.
But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement. Scientist have found that disadvantaged students lose important ground in the summertime.
A school year can allow time-limited teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons. Schools would have more time for sports, languages, music and the arts.
1. Before the 20th century, a long summer vacation might ______.
A. reduce income for Americans
B. reduce health risks for students
C. cause career failure for Americans
D. cause loss in global market for America
2. How long does an American-style summer vacation last？
A. No more than two months.
B. Less than three months.
C. As long as three months.
D. As long as four months.
3. According to the text, who will benefit from a long school year?
A. American students, teachers and parents.
B. American students, parents and shop owners.
C. American students, parents and international competitors.
D. American students, teachers and international competitors.
4. How many reasons did the writer give to support his/her opinion?
C. Three.
D. Four.
