We live on a corner, higher than street level, and the entire side of the yard is surrounded by a professionally built rock wall. The front of the house though is another story because instead of a wall along the sidewalk, the rocks appear to be just thrown up onto the dirt as if someone were in a hurry to finish.We did the best we could with what we had to work with and called this area our “rock garden”. Whenever we had leftover flowers or plants, Denise or I would stick them out front, just to bring some color to the area. We would do all of the yard work on our own, even the tiring weed-pulling. Last summer I had reached the end of the rock garden and found a tiny little plant that I could not immediately identify, I knew I didnt plant it and Denise claimed that she didnt either. We decided to let it continue growing until we could figure out what it was.Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the mystery plant, it appeared to be a Sunflower with a tall skinny stalk(茎，杆) and only one head on it. I decided to baby it along and weed around it. As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, I noticed something unusual. The Sunflower had not started where I saw the stalk begin. It actually had begun under a big rock and grown under and around it to reach the sun.Thats when I realized that if a tiny little Sunflower didnt let a big rock stand in its way of developing, we too have the ability of doing the same thing. Once our environment begins to see that we believe in ourselves like that little Sunflower, we can attain the same nourishment(营养) and growth as well.Stand tall like the Sunflower and be proud of who and what you are and the environment will begin to support you. You will find a way to go under or around your big obstacle in order to reach your desires.21. We can know from the first paragraph that _.A. the author finished building his home hurriedly B. the authors family have lived in this home for nine yearsC. the authors home is made of rock walls D. there is a wall along the sidewalk22. The author found it unusual that_.A. the mystery plant turned out to be a Sunflower B. the Sunflower had a tall stalk and only one headC. the Sunflower grew under and around a big rock D. the Sunflower had started where the stalk was seen23. Which of the following best describes the Sunflower?A. Brave and stubborn. B. Confident and persistent. C. Optimistic and modest. D. Mysterious and devoted.24.What can be inferred from this passage?A. Human beings are able to remove obstacles. B. The universal truth made the sunflower survive.C. A big rock blocked out the sunlight of the sunflower. D. We can achieve success as long as we are self-confident.BIt is not only praise or punishment that determines a childs level of confidence. There are some other important ways we shape our kidsparticularly by giving instructions and mands in a negative or positive choice of words. For example, we can say to a child “Dont run into traffic!” or “Stay on the footpath close to me.” In using the latter, you will be helping your kids to think and act positively, and to feel petent in a wide range of situations, because they know what to do, and arent scaring themselves about what not to do. Actually, it is all in the way the human mind works. What we think, we automatically rehearse. For example, if someone offered you a million dollars not to think of a blue monkey for two minutes, you wouldnt be able to do it. When a child is told “Dont fall off the tree,” he will think of two things: “dont” and “fall off the tree”. That is, he will automatically create the picture of falling off the tree in his mind. A child who is vividly imagining falling off the tree is much more likely to fall off. So it is far better to use “Hold on to the tree carefully.” Clear, positive instructions help kids to understand the right way to do things. Kids do not always know how to be safe, or how to react to the warning of the danger in negative words. So parents should make their mands positive. “Sam, hold on firm to the side of the boat” is much more useful than “Dont you dare to fall out of the boat?” or worse still “How do you think Ill feel if you drown?” The changes are small but difference is obvious. Children learn how to guide and organize themselves from the way we guide them with our words, so it pays to be positive.25.Positive choice of words helps kids to _. A. do things carefully B. learn in different situations C. improve their imagination D. build up their confidence26.What can we infer from Paragraph 2 ? A. One cant help imagining what is heard. B. A child will act on what is instructed. C. A child will fall off the tree when told not to. D. One wont think of a blue monkey when given money.27.Which of the following mands helps kids to be safe? A. Fasten your seat belt. B. Dont play by the lake. C. How do you think Ill feel if you get hurt? D. Dont you dare to walk through the red light?28.The main idea of the passage is that _. A. praise makes kids confident B. right instructions keep kids safe C. positive instructions guide kids D. clear mands make kids different CCrossing your legs is an extremely mon habit; most people dont even notice that theyre doing it when they sit down. While you may find it fortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason for this is that the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart and that crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You wont feel any immediate effects, but repeated, drawn-out increases in blood pressure can cause long-term health issues. So, planning to sit for a long period of time? Dont keep your legs crossed.Crossing your legs at the knee can also cause pressure on the major nerve in your leg that passes just below your knee and along the outside of your leg, explains Richard Graves, a medical expert. This pressure can cause numbness and temporary paralysis (麻痹) of some of the muscles in your foot and leg, preventing you from being able to raise your anklewhat we know as that “pins and needles” sensation. While the feeling of disfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.29. What can we learn about crossing ones legs?A. It is a very bad social habit. B. It can do harm to peoples health.C. It is usually practiced deliberately. D. It can make others feel unfortable.30. According to the study, sitting with your legs crossed can_.A. affect your blood pressure B. resist gravity effectivelyC. lead to heart attacks easily D. improve the function of legs31. In the third paragraph “pins and needles” probably means_.A. being highly flexible B. being a little tiredC. serious muscle injuries D. slight sharp pains 32. What is the main purpose of the text?A. To pare mon habits. B. To evaluate effects of an experiment.C. To give readers some advice. D. To introduce research methods.DEach time Chinese New Year is approaching, preparations are underway around the world. Here are some Chinatowns for those outside of China wishing to mark the day.
