He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult prehension. His work in no way reflected his 43 . So when Simons mother entered the room, my palms(手掌心) were sweating. I was pletely 44 for her kisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you,” she said, surprising me beyond speech. 45 me, Simon had bee a different person.

How did I make such a life-changing difference to that boy without 50 knowing it? What I finally came to 51 was one day, several months before, when some students were 52 reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke 53 , and to encourage her to raise her voice, L had said, “Speak up. Simons the expert on this. He is the 54 one you have to convince, and he cant hear you in the 55 of the room.” That was it. From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention, 56 more, and became happy. And it was all because he 57 to be the last kid in the last row.

Is this a good thing? Sometimes, when Mr. Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy, such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.“I would never have said to my mom, Hey, the new Weezer album is really great. How do you like it?” says Ballmer. “There was just a plete gap in taste.”Music was not the only gulf. From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations, earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits.Today, the generation gap has not disappeared, but it is getting narrow in many families. Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago. Now they are fortable and mon. And parentchild activities, from shopping to sports, involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood.No wonder greeting cards today carry the message, “To my mother, my best friend.”But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents. “Theres still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents out there, but there is a change happening,” says Kerrie, a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College. “In the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents.” Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving roles and attitudes. They see the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open munication and a more democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say. “My parents were on the before side of that change, but todays parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the after side,” explains Mr. Ballmer. “Its not something easily acplished by parents these days, because life is more difficult to understand or deal with, but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”61. The underlined word gulf in Para.3 most probably means _.A. interest B. difference C. distance D. separation62. Which of the following shows that the generation gap is disappearing?A. Parents help their children develop interests in more activities.B. Parents put more trust in their childrens abilities.C. Parents share more interests with their children.D. Parents and children talk more about sex and drugs.63. The change in todays parent-child relationship is _.A. new equality between parents and childrenB. more confusion among parentsC.1ess respect for parents from childrenD. more strictness and authority on the part of parents64. By saying “todays parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the after side.” the author means that todays parents _.A. can set a limit to the change B. fail to take the change seriouslyC. follow the trend of the change D. have little difficulty adjusting to the change65. The purpose of the passage is to _.A. describe the difficulties todays parents have met withB. suggest the ways to handle the parentchild relationshipC. pare todays parentchild relationship with that in the pastD. discuss the development of the parentchild relationshipBIf you have questions about developing your study practices,the first place to look isin our Study Guides. However, if you dont find the answers you needhere, or you feelthe guidancewould make more sense in the situation of your own work, then you may find it helpful to talk to an adviser individually.

What to expect from an individual advice session Our individual advice sessions are quite informal and tailored to your needs.

So we will not correctwork for you, but will help you understandwhat you need to knowto correct it yourself in the future.Everyone works differently, so we may makea number ofsuggestionsit will be up to you to try them out and see whatworks best for you. If youd like to discuss acoursework assignment which you are currently working on,it may be helpful if you can email your work to the adviser you are seeing before your meeting (contact details are here), with a note saying what you would like to discuss. As sessions are quite short,you might preferthat we spent the time discussing how you can develop your work, rather than reading it!Please note: We cannot providesubject-specific advice. For this, it is best to consult your course tutor. If you would prefer to talk to someone else, try your personal tutor, or the Senior Tutor in your department.

It was a strange place. Martin and Tom wished that they had not accepted Jacks dare. They liked camping, but not near this swamp.“So,” Martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals. “How did this place get its name? ”“Are you sure you want to hear it? Its a scary story,” warned Jack.“Of course!” cried out Tom. “If there were anything to be scared of, you wouldnt have chosen this place!”“OK, but dont say I didnt warn you,” said Jack, and he began his tale.“Way back in time, a man called Dennis tried to start a farm here. He built that cottage over there to live in . In those days, the area looked quite differentit was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystal-clear river. After three hard years, Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. He was so proud of his success that he refused to listen to advice.“ You are clearing too much land, warned one old man. The land is a living thing. It will hit back at you if you abuse it. “ Silly fool, said Dennis to himself. If I clear more land, I can grow more crops. Ill bee wealthier. Hes just jealous!”“Dennis continued to chop down trees. Small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed. He was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. He did not notice salt seeping to the surface of the land. He did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.”“What happened? ” Martin asked. It was growing colder. He trembled, twisting his body closer to the fire.“The land hit backjust as the old man warned, ” Jack shrugged. “Dennis disappeared. Old folks around here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater. His body was never found.”“What a stupid story, ” laughed Tom. “Plants cant ” Before he had finished speaking, he screamed and fainted(晕倒). The other two boys jumped up with fright, staring at Tom. Suddenly, they burst out laughing. Some green swamp ivy (常春藤) had covered Toms face. It was a while before Tom could appreciate the joke.70.The underlined word “dare” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _.A. assistance B. courage C. challenge D. instruction71.Why did Jack tell Tom and Martin the story?A.

He was too busy to listen to others.B. He was greedy for more crops.C. The old man envied him.D. The old man was foolish.73.Why did Tom scream and faint?A. His friends played a joke on him.B.

Grasp all, lose all.C. No sweat, no sweet.D. He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.DHilary Smith belonged to a good family. But by the age of twenty, he had spent all the money the good old family had. He then had some trouble with the bank and was put in prison. He escaped from the prison and ran to Australia without delay. Hilary did not like Australia and Australia did not like Hilary. What he could do seemed to be one of two things: die or work. Then he remembered that he was not alone in the world. He had an aunt. She was his fathers only sister, but his father used to say she brought no glory to the family. Hilary, of course, tried to discover what she had done. It seemed that she had failed to marry a nobleman. Instead, she had chosen a husband who was connected with trade. Of course as soon as she became Mrs. Parks, her brother considered her dead. Later on, Mr. Parks died and left her a lot of money; but that did not bring her back to life in her brothers opinion. Hilary discovered his aunts address. Fortunately she remained faithful and honest to him even after she fell ill. So Hilarys star shone again, and soon he moved into her house and lived as fortably as a sailor who had just reached harbor. He had only about a sixpence in his pocket. One thing was soon clear: his aunt was seriously ill, and nothing could cure her illness. Hilary was very worried. Fate had found a home for him, and was now going to throw him out of it. There was only one thing that could save him: her will. Will? she said, yes, I have made one. That was when I was a girl and had not much money. I left all my money to some religious people. Didnt you make another will when you were married? Hilary asked. His aunt shook her head. No, she said in a low voice, There was no need. When I finally had a lot of money I found I had no relations. On the next day he went to the public library and examined a book of law. It told him what he already believed. When a woman is married, an earlier will loses its value. A new will must be made. If no new will is made, the money goes to the nearest relation. Hilary knew that he was his aunts only relation. His future was safe. After a few months had passed, Hilarys problems became serious. He badly needed money. He had expensive tastes, and owed a lot of money to shopkeepers. They trusted him because his aunt was rich; but the debt was terrible. Unfortunately his aunt did not want to discuss money matters at all. In the end they had a quarrel about the small amount of ten pounds. Hilary was not very angry. He began to wonder about a new problem. Was it kind to want his aunt to live any longer? Was it not better for her to die now? While he was considering what to do, his aunt told him that she was going to send for her lawyer. So she was going to make a new will, Hilary thought. She might leave all her money to someone else. Soon he reached a clear decision. He must do a great kindness to the poor old woman. One night when the old servant who had been nursing his au
