These days are to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home and more fathers must help with child-care.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mothers Day, people wear carnations (康乃馨). A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. Its also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery (墓地). On these days families get together at home as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Fathers Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are more valued than those bought in stores. Its not the value of the gift that is important, but “the thought” that counts. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakers, phone companies and other stores do lots of business during these holidays.56Which is not a reason for children to show love and respect for parents? A. Parents bring up children. B. Parents give love and care to children. C. Parents educate children to be good persons.D. Parents offer some opportunities to their children.57What can we learn from the passage? A. Both festivals are in May. B. Fewer women worked outside the home in the past. C. Not all the children respect their parents.D. Fathers are not as important as mothers at home.58On Mothers Day and Fathers Day _. A. people usually have family parties B. everyone goes to the cemetery C. children always go to parents home D. hand-made cards are the most valuable giftsBOn Saturday nights, A.J.Coston doesnt get a lot of sleep. Usually three or four times a night, a loud bell rings, a red light flashes, and he has to jump out of his bed. Thats because hes a weekend volunteer firefighter（消防员）with Loudoun County Fire and Rescue Station 13 in Northern Virginia. During the week, he lives at home with his mom, dad and sister and does his main job which is going to high school.“I have always wanted to get into firefighting since I was a little kid watching fire trucks go by,” he says. “One day on the Internet I noticed that Loudoun County offered a junior firefighter program.” He was only 16, but he got it.Fighting fires is dangerous work. Firefighters never stop practicing the skills they need to stay safe. Once Coston learned those skills, he was allowed to work inside burning buildings.“Teamwork is most important,” he says. “Its the whole team that puts the fire out.”Firefighters feel great about helping people. “My most unbelievable call was probably the time four kids were struck by lightning,” says Coston. He will be off to college next fall, building on his dream job. “Ill get my degree in emergency medical care. and then work in a fire and rescue company for a while. I want to be a flight doctor on a helicopter in the end, but I will never forget the days as a firefighter. These are my unforgettable experiences,” he says.59Coston cant sleep well on Saturday nights because _.

Coston tried several times before he became a volunteer firefighter C. firefighters feel proud that they can help people D. firefighters have to practice skills all the time to stay safeCChinese netizens who like to create and use cyber words (网络语言) such as “geilivable” might find a new regulation very “ungeilivable”. The new regulation by the General Administration of Press and Publication last week banned the use of Chinglish words created by netizens for publishing in the Chinese language. “Geilivable”, combining the pinyin geili (giving strength) with the English suffix (后缀) for adjectives, literally means “giving power” or “cool”. Different suffixes and prefixes were then added to the word. “Hengeilivable” means “very cool”, and “ungeilivable” means “dull, not cool at all”.Cyber language is popular among Chinese netizens, who create Chinglish words to reflect phenomenon in society. One example is “antizen”, which refers to college graduates who earn a meager salary and live in small rented apartments, like tiny and laborious ants.David Tool, a professor with the Beijing International Studies University, said its very interesting to combine Chinese with English to create new words. “English is no longer mysterious to the Chinese people. They can use the language in a flexible way according to their own experiences,” Tool said.At the announcement of the regulation by the General Administration of Press and Publication, netizens expressed their concern. “The administration is totally ungeilivable,” said a netizen named laoda1713. “I know other netizens will shed tears with me. it is a good chance to enrich our language.”“Language is always developing,” said a columnist (专栏作家), Wang Pei. “It needs to be updated to absorb foreign culture and folk wisdom.”But an unnamed official with the administration said that, in fact, many senior staff from news media who supported the regulation were worried that years later, the younger generation would forget how to use formal Chinese expressions. The official also pointed out that the regulation was only for formal publications in Chinese language, and it only banned Chinglish words in the publication.62The new regulation by the General Administration of Press and Publication may be aimed at _. A. simplifying the Chinese languageB. limiting the development of languageC. banning the use of Chinglish in the publicationD. making the netizens more serious63The underlined word “meager” in the third paragraph probably means_. A. poorB. flexibleC. highD. plentiful64From this passage we can infer that_. A. the Chinese people like their own language onlyB. the English words are considered informal in ChinaC. nobody in China will support the new regulationD. “geilivable” is popular among Chinese netizens65Which may be the best title of this passage? A. Cyber Words Face an Ungeilivable RegulationB. Cyber Words Make Language More LivelyC. Different Views about Cyber LanguageD. New Netizens in China66On which column of China Daily can you find this passage? A. EntertainmentB. BusinessC. TravelD. Opinion DA bad Working Memory (大脑的工作记忆) the brains temporary storage box - may explain, new research suggests, why one child cannot read his or her history book and another gets lost in math. As many as 10 percent of school-age children may suffer from poor working memory. British researchers said in a report last week, yet the problem is rarely identified.“You can think of working memory as a pure measure of your childs potential. Many psychologists consider working memory to be the new IQ (智商), because we find that working memory is one of the most important predictors (预示物) of learning ability,” said Dr. Tracey Alloway of Britains Durham University.Many children with poor working memory are considered lazy or dull. Working memory allows people to hold in their minds and deal with a few items, such as telephone numbers, over a short period of time. Alloway compares working memory to a box. For adults, the basic box size is thought to be three to five items. Its important, therefore, to put in the right things. Irrelevant (不相关的) information will clutter (混乱) working memory.The question many researchers are struggling with is how to help children with this problem, which appears to be closely related to a lack of attention.“In children with learning difficulties, it becomes a huge issue, especially around middle school, when the demands on working memory really grow,” said Dr. Mel Levine, co-founder of All Kinds of Minds, a nonprofit organization in North Carolina that studies learning difficulties.Memory training may help improve working memory. Alloway has a tool that allows teachers to assess (评定) the working-memory capacity of children as young as 4; it has been used in 35 schools across Britain.Levines organization trains teachers through a program called Schools Attuned, which is working with several thousand schools across the United States, Canada and Europe. While he is not sure working memory can be expanded, Levine said children can be taught ways to do better in school.67Which of the following is a characteristic of working memory? A. It has a limited capacity. B. It is usually better in children than adults. C. It improves with use.D. It can cause a lack of attention.68According to the new research, _. A. the importance of working memory has been long recognized B. working memory is becoming recognized as a factor in intelligence C. laziness can weaken working memoryD. working memory helps people remember things forever69Which of the following may help improve a childs working memory? A. Expanding the brain s storage box. B. Remembering more things. C. Training the memory.D. Being reminded frequently.70According to the passage, Dr. Mel Levine has _. A. invented tools to help improve a childs working memory B. founded an organization to train teachers to help students with this problem C. identified the problem clearly D. compared working memory to a box第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有多余选项。If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this, and nobody would think of questioning this fact. 71 When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciously. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to become strong. 72 One of them exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or a motor car all day.If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his
