He knew that his son was clever, and he wanted him to have a good education. So he sent Mendel to high school. At that time few people attended high school, and those who did lived there. However, since his father could not give him enough money, he always felt hungry. Luckily, the other students always gave him food from their plates.Later Mendel became a monk (修道士) and continued his studies. He took care of the gardens at the temple where he and the other monks lived. He did experiments with pea plants for eight years. He wanted to prove that parents passed features to their children. Over time he found that plants have genes (基因). Genes carry codes (密码) for features from one generation to the next. Around 1860 Mendel discovered that plants have recessive and dominant genes (隐性和显性基因). He grew a tall pea plant with a short pea plant. Every one of the first generation of four pea plants was tall. This meant that tall was the dominant gene. Yet in the next generation of four pea plants, one plant was very short. The recessive short genes it received from both of its parent plants had made it short.From these experiments, he understood: Dominant genes showed up the most often in the children. Recessive genes only showed up sometimes and only when both parents carried the gene for the features.To share his finding with others, he wrote a paper. But during his lifetime no one cared about what he had discovered. At the time of his death, he still felt very sad.Finally, his important discovery was accepted in 1990. We now know that both plants and animals have genes and that genes play a major role in how we look, how we act, and whether or not we are likely to get certain diseases. 5.

Why did Mendel feel sad at the time of his death?A. His father died from disease.B. His discovery wasnt accepted.C. He couldnt continue his research.D. He couldnt realize his great dream.CCob is a six-year-old boy. An aid organization brought him to the farm run by Joy from another province. Both Cobs parents died of serious disease when he was a two-month-old baby. His eighty-year-old grandmother treated him badly. He developed a disease over time, which led to him being unable to keep things in mind well; on the other hand, there was nothing good for him to bear in mind as well.When he first arrived at the farm, it appeared to him like a huge playground. Cob played around, hid behind trees and bushes, and enjoyed this new area. Over time, he gained confidence, chose Joy as his new mother, and let her carry him around. Amy, Joys real daughter, the same age as Cob, had to learn to share her mother with the other child. She also needed to see the other children as her brothers or sisters and accept them although she may be unwilling to do so. In the beginning, Cob did not use the facilities (设施) on the farm. Slowly Joy tried to help him use them and during the day, he kept on with them but not at night. All attempts (尝试) to send him to school failed. As soon as he arrived there, he ran off into the wide world like a free rabbit. He enjoyed running around in school rather than doing what teachers told him to do. Finally, the head teacher announced that the school was not suitable for Cob. Cob had to go back to the farm. At daytime, he watched adults and elder children bicycle and if there was any chance, he took a bicycle, then pushed and pulled it up and down the hill. One day Cob found there was a small bicycle standing next to the big ones. It was a gift for him! It was new with wheels on each side of the back wheel, which was just right for a little child without any experience in riding a bicycle. Cob pushed it up the hill, got on it and off from time to time. From then on Cob began riding his bicycle every day. Although he often fell and got hurt, he went on. During rainy days, he stored the bicycle in his room and slept close to it at night. Maybe even in his dreams he was happy he had found the entrance to a happy and satisfying life. 8.

What does the passage mainly tell us?A. Riding bicycle is Cobs favourite.B. Cob has a mixture of good and bad luck.C. How to live a happy and satisfying life.D. Cob suffered much physically in his family. DPicky eaters may have good reasons for their behaviour. No matter why your child has bee picky, how you handle the situation can affect his or her future. Therefore, you should know the following reasons for picky children first of all. Neophobia is mon in children; it often happens at the dinner table. Some children just refuse to try new food because they dont know what it will taste like, while others dislike new food before even smelling it. Some children take it to the extreme (极端) and will only eat a few foods that they like. Psychologist Dr. Elizabeth Capaldi says that, by the time children reach the age of two, they have formed their own eating habits that they dont want to be disturbed by new offerings at the table.A newly published study led by Dr. Lucy Cooke of University College London showed that picky eating in children results from genetic (遗传的) and environmental causes. The research, which followed the eating habits of 5,390 pairs of twins between the ages of 8 and 11, found that about 75% of the neophobia in the children was from their parents, while 25% was due to the influence of environment. Children grow at a high speed during their first year, but that fast-paced growth tends to slow down by their second year. When children are not experiencing one of those fast growth periods, their body needs less energy; and that results in a smaller appetite (胃口). When children are not hungry, they tend to enjoy only food they like. They refuse new food and food that is not their favourite. Some children will limit the amount of food to only one kind, like hamburgers or pancakes, leaving all the other foods untouched.In some cases, many real reasons why a child behaves as a picky eater exist. About 5% of children who are 10 years of age or younger have some type of neurological dysfunction (神经机能障碍) that influences their eating habits. These children may be easily hurt by some special smells, or their brain may not be able to process such sensory information properly. 12. The underlined word “Neophobia” in Paragraph 2 probably means _.A. the fear of something new or unknownB. the worry about the amount of new foodC. the feeling of eating at the dinner tableD. the fear of eating tasty food13. What can we learn about the study led by Dr. Cooke?A. It paid more attention to the environmental effects on childrens eating habits.B. It followed the eating habits of 5,390 children aged between 8 and 11.C. It showed that genetics greatly affect childrens eating habits.D. It suggested that parents should have good eating habits.14. The fourth paragraph mainly tells us that _.A. childrens growth speed stays the same in the first two yearsB. children develop their own diet when they grow upC. children tends to eat less when they grow upD. childrens growth has an effect on their diet15. The reason mentioned in the last paragraph has something to do with a childs _.A. exercise B. sense C. habit D. interest二、完型填空Joani Jack was worried about her daughter Jodie. Although not very fat, Jodie 16 more than she should and was continuing to gain weight day by day. “As a pediatrician (儿科医生) and a parent, I knew we needed to help her, 17 we werent making 18 progress. While we were dealing with our daughters 19 , I was also seeing more and more overweight children in my office.” Through her research, Dr. Jack found Thin Within, a book written for 20 teaching them how to lose weight by following their natural body cues (暗示).“Reading the book, I became very 21 because it made so much sense for adults and even children,” said Dr. Jack. “After seeing how 22 our daughter picked up the ideas about losing weight, I decided to write a book for all parents who are fighting against fatness 23 their children.”Raising Fit Kids in a Fat World mainly includes three parts: The first is 24 less food. “This is the most important thing,” said Dr. Jack. “ 25 choices encourage us to eat too much food without considering how much our body can absorb. The book teaches parents how to understand their childrens 26 and fullness cues.” The second part is teaching your children to make better choices when it es to food and the 27 of food they eat. “That doesnt mean they cannot eat all the tasty foods they 28 . This is about teaching them how to eat selectively. Actually, I find that children do well under parental 29 when speaking of making healthy food choices,” said Dr. Jack. The third part is keeping active. Its 30 that young people exercise at least 60 minutes a day. The good news is that it doesnt have to 31 all at once. “Therere all kinds of ways to help children be 32 ; however, the key is that such activities have to be fun,” said Dr. Jack.
