More than 14 million students leave school every afternoon and have nowhere to go, since they do not have access to affordable after-school opportunities. According to the National Youth Violence Prevention Resource Center (NYVPRC), nine out of ten Americans think all youths should have access to after-school programs, but two-thirds of parents say they have trouble finding programs locally. The bad news is that situation may be getting worse.After-school hours are the peak time for juvenile crimes and risky behaviors, including alcohol and drug use. The NYVPRC states that children who do not spend any time in after-school activities are 49 percent more likely to use drugs and 37 percent more likely to bee a teen parent. Kids are also at the highest risk of being a victim of violence after school, particularly between the hours of 2p.m. and 6p.m. The highest amount of juvenile crime occurs between 3p.m. and 4p.m. , when most children are dismissed from school.The NYVPRC defines after-school programs as safe and structured activities that offer children opportunities to learn new skills. The skills students learn can range from technology and math to reading and art. Some programs also offer opportunities for internship(实习), munity services , or mentoring. These programs have been shown to improve academic achievements, as well as relieve the stresses on working families. A report by the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of justice shows that students in after school programs have fewer behavioral problems and more self-confidence , and can handle conflicts better than students who are not involved with these programs. In addition, according to the Harvard Family Research Project, after-school programs help students from low-ine families overe the inequities (不公平) they face in the school system. 56. What is the theme of the passage?A. Prevention of juvenile crimes. B. Risks kids face after school.C. A research report on the stresses of students.D. The benefits of after-school programs.57. Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?A. Most parents dont believe in after-school programs.B. Students are not willing to attend after-school programs.C. Its difficult for parents to find after-school programs for their children.D. Parents dont care about where their children go after school.58. We learn from the second paragraph that _ .A. the teachers should watch over kids after schoolB. children are dismissed from school too lateC. after-school hours are a risky time for childrenD. children should go home immediately school is over59. The author of the passage probably _.A. fully support after-school programs B. doubts the effects of after-school programsC. believes structured activities are useless for childrenD. thinks students today are too stressed60. The underlined word “juvenile” in Paragraph 2 has a similar meaning to “_” .A. student B. teenager C. adult D. campusBHoffman，40，a former senior vice president of a financial pany，had what she describes as “one of those extreme jobs.” “I loved working,” she says. But her career path reached a crossroad when her second child was born，and she left her job in February xx. Hoffman is one of many people who have left the work force to take a break，but she has a position as a consultantShe has described this type of career detour(绕路) - which is more mon for women than for menas “off- ramping” Typically it occurs when the balancing act of parenting and work bees too toughA study by the center found that more than 90 percent of women who off-ramp want to on-ramp back into the work force eventuallyBut making the transition back to work is rarely easy，and it is even harder in this economic climate of layoffs and hiring freezes.Considering some of the obstacles faced by on- rampers , a three-day program called “Greater Returns：Restarting Your Career” was held at Columbia University. The goal of the three days was to have them walk away with a big shot of confidence.According to one school of thought, women looking to make a eback might even have an advantage in the current economy，especially if they are looking for part-time or consultant positions that do not offer benefits. And a majority of on-rampers are women with extensive working experiences that could give them a slight advantage over less-experienced petition“You absolutely cannot be defensive about why you off-ramped,” Ms Hoffman says, “ defensive” would have put her into a hard situation if the Greater Returns program had had not taught her how to describe the years she spent at home“I now feel confident talking to an employer and saying， Yes，I have been out of the work force，but here is where I can make significant contributions.”61What is the best title for the passage?AOff ramp：it is mon BOn ramp：it is easy COff ramp or on ramp：it depends on confidence DOff ramp to on ramp：it can be a hard Journey62According to the passage，Greater Returns_ Ais intended to relieve the pressure of the jobless women Bhas all the jobless women restart their career Cwill build up the confidence of those in search of jobs Dis to last a11 the year around for the jobless women63The main reason for the womens off-ramping is that_ Athey have to suffer the sexual discrimination Bthey have to parent their children Cthey reach a crossroad of career Dthey have great work pressure64From what MsHoffman says in the last paragraph，we can conclude_ . Ashe didnt get advice from the Greater Returns program Bshe was defensive about her off-ramping Cshe didnt get the job because she lied about her experience Dshe is off ramp partly due to her straightforward manner 65. Which job is easier to get for a woman off-ramper? A. Regular workers. B. Casual workers. C. pany managers. D. Bank clerks. C.Surgeons in Spain have successfully carried out the worlds first organ transplant using new stem cell technology. Some people are calling it the greatest medical breakthrough so far this century.But what are stem cells? As we know, most cells in our bodies are designed to serve specific purposes for example, a liver cell develops to work in the liver and cannot bee a heart cell. But stem cells are different. They are very young, and in the laboratory scientists can grow them into different types of cell. Claudia Castillo needed a new windpipe after getting a serious disease. Scientists from the University of Bristol in the UK took a donor windpipe, or trachea, from someone who had recently died. They used strong chemicals to remove the donors cells, leaving a tissue scaffold(组织支架). This was refilled with cells from Ms Castillos windpipe, and stem cells from her bone. After four days the cells had grown sufficiently for the windpipe to be transplanted into Ms Castillo. Currently, transplant patients have to take drugs for the rest of their lives to prevent their bodies rejecting the new organs. These drugs can have bad side-effects, and do not always prevent rejection. But by using Ms Castillos own cells, doctors were able to trick her body into thinking the new windpipe was her own organ. Five months on, Claudia Castillo is in perfect health. This ground-breaking procedure could be used in other transplant operations in the future. Scientists also believe stem cells might be used to treat Parkinsons disease, Alzheimers disease, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, diabetes, burns and so on.However, stem cell research is extremely controversial. The most effective stem cells do not e from adults but from embryos created in laboratories and which are just a few days old. Many people have religious or ethical objections to growing embryos, even if they can be used to cure diseases.66. This transplant is considered the greatest medical breakthrough because _.A. this is the first organ transplant in the whole worldB. the patient is in perfect health after the operationC. it is the first success with new stem cell technologyD. the stem cells are from an embryo developed in a lab67. Stem cells are different from the other ceils in the way that _.A. they are grown in the lab onlyB. they can grow into different types of cellC. they are designed for a specific purposeD. they can work in the liver not in the heart68. What is the main idea of the third paragraph?A. How Claudia survived in the operationB. How to remove the cells from the donors organC. Why stem cells are needed in the transplantD. How the windpipe is transplanted69. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Human bodies always reject transplanted organs even with their own cellsB. The donors cells had to be removed because they were unhealthyC. The transplanted organ was refilled with the stem cells onlyD. Claudia will not have to take drugs to prevent rejection.70. Which word can best describe the scientists attitude towards the stem cell technology?A. controversial B. confident C. conservative (保守的) D. criticalD.Many adults in the United States can remember crying the nursery rhyme in the street Hot cross buns! But only a few people realize this was an early form of advertising.Written advertisements probably began with hieroglyphics more than three thousand years ago, but only a few people could read these symbols. So merchants made signs with pictures or hung their tools over their doors to identify their businesses. In the time of the Roman Empire, wall paintings were a popular form of advertisement. An ad for a play, or some other performance was painted on part of a building or on a wall around a city. People often advertised a house for rent or a freshwater bath in this way, too. Today, large wall signs are still used for outdoor advertising. But outdoor advertising is only a small fraction of the total advertising. About forty per -cent of all ads are printed in daily newspapers. Radio mercials also provide this kind of information. Some people think they are the best form of advertising because radio broadcasts reach almost everyone in a nation. Advertisements in magazines and on television reach many people, too. However, usually only large panies can advertise on a national network, because TV mercials shown across the country can cost many thousands of dollars. Then there are ads that are almost part of daily living. If you use public transportation, you will see large printed ads, called ear cards, on buses and taxis and in trains. Ads are painted on the trucks t
