BThe writer Margaret Mitchell is best known for writing Gone with the Wind, first published in 1936. Her book and the movie based on it, tell a story of love and survival during the American Civil War. Visitors to the Margaret Mitchell House in Atlanta, Georgia, can go where she lived when she started posing the story and learn more about her life.Our first stop at the Margaret Mitchell House is an exhibit area telling about the writers life. She was born in Atlanta in 1900. She started writing stories when she was a child. She started working as a reporter for the Atlanta Journal newspaper in 1922. One photographer of Ms. Mitchell, called Peggy, shows her talking to a group of young college boys. She was only about one and a half meters tall. The young men tower over her, but she seems very happy and sure of herself. The tour guide explains, “Now in this picture Peggy is interviewing some boys from Georgia Tech, asking them such questions as Wouldyou really marry a woman who works? And today itd be Would you marry one who doesnt? ”The Margaret Mitchell House is a building that once contained several apartments. Now we enter the first floor apartment where Ms. Mitchell lived with her husband, John Marsh. They made fun of the small apartment by calling it “The Dump”.Around 1926, Margaret Mitchell had stopped working as a reporter and was at home healing after an injury. Her husband brought her books to read from the library. She read so many books that he bought her a typewriter and said it was time for her to write her own book. Our guide says Gone with the Wind became a huge success. Margaret Mitchell received the Pulitzer Prize for the book. In 1939 the film version was released. It won ten Academy Awards, including Best Picture.23. The book Gone with the Wind was _.A. first published on a newspaperB. awarded ten Academy AwardsC. written in “The Dump”D. adapted from a movie24. According to the passage, Ms. Mitchell stopped working as a reporter because _.A. she was rich enoughB. she was injured thenC. her husband didnt like itD. she wanted to write books25. What can be inferred from the passage about Margaret Mitchell?A. Her height made her marriage unhappy. B. Her interest in writing continued as an adult.C. Writing stopped her working as a reporter.D. Her life was full of hardship and sadness.26. Which is the best title for the passage?A. A Trip to Know Margaret Mitchell. B. Gone with the Wind: A Huge Success.C. An Introduction of the Margaret Mitchell House. D. Margaret Mitchell: A Great Female Writer.CFrom dogs and cats to pandas and penguins, lists of adorable animals can be very varied. However, when it es to scary animals, the answers are often more or less the same snakes and spiders are among the most dreadful ones for the majority of us.However, most of us have never been bitten by a snake or a spider. So does this mean we are born with a fear of certain things?Scientists have been actively looking into it for a long time. For example, studies have suggested that babies find live animals much more interesting than stuffed (毛绒填充的) ones. This interest continues even if those animals are snakes and spiders.A study published in Psychological Science in 2008 seemed to show that snakes did have a different impact on babies. When scientists presented babies with animal videos along with random sounds of happy or frightened human voices, they found that babies looked at snakes for longer than any other animal however the voices sounded.Now, a team from Rutgers University in New Jersey, US has tried to challenge the idea that babies are born with a fear of snakes and spiders. According to the BBC, the researchers measured babies physiological (生理的) responses as they watched videos of snakes and elephants paired with both fearful and happy voices.Scientists then set out to surprise the babies to see how they would react. They presented them with an unexpected bright flash of light as they watched a video. As the BBC explained, a surprise like this would be more intense (强烈的) if the babies were already scared, just like when we watch scary films and jump more if we are already scared.However, according to their findings, published recently in the Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, babies surprised responses were not bigger when watching a video of a snake, even when it was shown with a fearful voice. Their heart response was also lower, which also made it seem that babies were not scared.“Children do not have an innate fear of snakes,” concluded the study. Even if previous studies had suggested that babies have different responses to snakes, it isnt necessarily related to fear. “Its possible that paying more attention to something might make fear learning easier later on. It leads to fear learning,” said research co-author Vanessa LoBue. She further explained that it was a good thing that humans didnt have an inborn fear of snakes because it would make a young infants desire to explore new things less strong.Instead, we have evolved to quickly learn to be afraid of something if it turns out to be dangerous.27. What is the article mainly about?A. How peoples fear of snakes and spiders has evolved.B. Whether humans are born with a fear of snakes and spiders.C. Why snakes and spiders are considered the most dreadful animals.D. How babies react differently from adults to snakes and spiders.28. What was the finding of the study published in Psychological Science in 2008? A. The longer babies looked at snakes in the video, the less scared they were.B. The fearful voices babies heard when watching snake videos doubled their fear of snakes.C. Babies responses to the snake in the videos were greatly affected by the types of voices they heard.D. Babies took more interest in snakes than the other animals in the videos regardless of which human voices they heard.29. How did babies react when the researchers from Rutgers University surprised them while theywere watching a video of a snake?A. They paid more attention to the snakes when they heard a fearful voice.B. Babies heart responses changed slightly when they heard a fearful voice.C. A fearful voice didnt make their surprised response bee more intense.D. They became more scared when they experienced an unexpected bright flash of light.30. According to Vanessa LoBue, since babies dont have an inborn fear of snakes, _.A. it would make it easier for them to learn fearB. it would make them more willing to explore new thingsC. it would lead them to stay away from dangerous thingsD. it would encourage them not to be afraid of anythingD“Morning, Mom,” I call.“Morning, baby,” she says cheerfully. “Did you sleep well?”“Better than I have been.”She sighs, and her eyes look a hundred years old for a minute. “Any improvement is good,” she says.“Of course.”“I made waffles.” Her offering.“Thanks, Mom. Smells delicious.” My offering.I sit at the table and she hands me a plate. The thought of all that food turns my stomach, but I force a smile and thank my mother again. She busies herself at the sink and fills the silence with chatter. When she turns around, she takes in the waffles still on my plate, only missing a few bites. I smile apologetically.“Im not very hungry this morning.”“Youll need your strength for this afternoon.” She bites her lip. She doesnt like to bring it up over breakfast. I eat another bite.“I packed your lunch.”“Im 18, Mom. I can pack my own lunch. You have more important things to do.”She reaches for the paper sack. “But now I know youll have something to eat. And you need to eat, okay? You have to keep your strength up.”Sighing, I take the bag. “Honey, have you thought about what I said the other day?” she asks.I shrug nonmittally. “Sweetheart, you cant hide this forever. Eventually youre going to miss school and people will start asking questions.”“Mom, I have two months left of high school. I can make it till then. Im class president and probably will make a graduation speech. I was voted Most popular, Most fun to be around, Best smile, and Most likely to succeed. Im the girl whos got it all together. People dont want to know that the girl whos got it all together, doesnt have it all together. People dont want to know that girl is dying!”“Honey, dont say that. Youre not dying.”“Yes, I am. You heard Dr. Morrison. I have maybe a year left. Mom, listen to me. I dont want to be the girl everyone looks at and whispers, Look at her. Poor thing! I cant handle that. I want to be normal. Just for these last two months.”“Okay,” she whispers. “Okay. Just remember, its okay if you dont have it all together. Sometimes things just fall apart and theres nothing we can do.”“Thanks, Mom.” I grab my bag and lunch and kiss her on the cheek. “I love you.” “I love you too,” my mom replies. This exchange, once taken for granted, is now a vital part of every morning, every afternoon, every night. Three little words, followed by four more, have e to mean more than an entire conversation. They bridge all gaps and disagreements, because we both know there is now a finite number left.Keys in hand, I open the door and blink in the early morning sun. My silver car waits in the driveway and as I walk toward it, I check my reflection in the tinted window. Perfect.31.
