But there is one huge secret that I kept for yearsI failed my driving test. I had never failed a test before, and had never even e close. Driving made me anxious, but my parents told me I had to. They signed me up for driving lessons. I had gotten a perfect score for my written permit exam, but getting behind the wheel was a different story. But when October 30th rolled around, my pride set in. I wanted to be like everyone else at my school, showing off the brand new license theyd gotten. Looking back on that special day, I cant remember if I was nervous. What I do remember is starting the test, pausing at a stop sign after a few seconds, and being asked by the instructor to pull over. I had received an auto-fail since my pause was indeed a pause and not a real stop. I wasnt upset that I was leaving without a license, but I was scared everyone would know that I had failed. So when I got to class，I told everyone I didnt want to take the test on my birthday. One Friday a month later, I went to the test spot again and passed. Later that night I drove for the first time by myself, which brought to me an amazing feeling Ive never experiencedbut still, I couldnt imagine ever telling anyone the truth. So I didnt. It wasnt until midway through college that I came clean. It turned out plenty of my college friends had failed too! And I gathered enough courage to speak the fact out. Yes, I had also failed.Now I realize failure and imperfection are two things everyone has to experience, without which one couldnt make a true man. 24. What can we learn about Matthew?A. He relied heavily on his parents. B. He was bored with telling lies. C. He was a slow learner of driving. D. He was afraid of taking exams. 25. Why did the instructor ask Matthew to pull over?A. To put an end to his test. B. To check his parking skills. C. To give him a second chance. D. To show him a better way of driving. 26. What made Matthew feel extremely worried after his first attempt?A. Failing to get a driving license. B. Missing his birthday celebration. C. Making his parents disappointed. D. Losing face before his classmates. 27. What did Matthew learn from his own experience?A. Failure is a way to grow up. B. Honesty is the best policy. C. Truth stands the test of time. D. Imperfection is another form of perfection. CDo you have a younger brother? Does he always get in trouble? well, there might be some science behind that. According to a report from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, second-born boys are more likely than first-borns to behave badly, which could be why you from time to time consider your younger brothers or sisters sprites. Researchers, who explored data from tens of thousands of sibling(兄弟姐妹) pairs from Denmark and Florida, found second-born boys are 20 to 40% more likely to have behavioral problems. If youre the second-born child you may want to have a little chat with your parents. The reason why second-born siblings may be worse behaved than first-borns is that parents tend to pay less attention to them. “Second-born children tend to have less attention from the mother than their older siblings because first-born children experience their mothers maternity leaves(产假). Firstborns enjoy the rewards of not only their own time with mum following their birth, but the time mum takes off with younger siblings, too,” the authors explain. Its not just about the parents, however. Speaking to NRP, co-author Joseph Doyle said, “The first-born has role models, who are adults. And the second, later-born children have role models who are slightly unreasonable 2-year-olds, you know, their older siblings. The difference of parental investments and the sibling influences probably contribute to these differences we see in the labor market and what we find in behaviors against regulations, even against laws. Its just very difficult to separate those two things because they happen at the same time. The results, the authors argue, have an important effect on social policy. 28. What does the underlined word “sprites” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Losers. B. Troublemakers. C. Close panions. D. Parents pets. 29. According to the report, what influences the second-born children s behavior?A. Challenges of their elder siblings. B. Fewer chances of talking with others. C. More family problems they are faced with. D. The amount of attention they receive from parents. 30. Joseph Doyle holds the opinion that the older siblings .A. have the same role models as their younger onesB. are not to blame for their younger siblings failureC. are partly responsible for their younger siblings problemsD. affect the parental investment and the labor market participation31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Why the second-born tend to be misbehaved B. How parents improve family relationshipsC. Social policy guides family education D.
