In your opinion are boys better at building things? If your answer to each of those questions is Yes, you are right according to an article in Current Science. There are exceptions but here are the facts.Usually boys score higher on tests about math while girls do better in tests about words spelling and memory. But these differences may not always be true. In the future, a persons abilities may not be decided by sex. As one scientist says Nothing is impossible for a person to be or do.A recent study by Jerome Kagan, a scientist at Harward University, is studying the watching ability of children 10 months old. Baby boys and baby girls are watching a show while seated on their mothers laps. In Act One of the show an orange-coloured hall is lifted from a blue box and moved slowly. Then it is returned to the box. This is repeated six times. Act Six is almost the same except that the orange ball is smaller.Baby boys do not seem to notice the difference in the size of the ball but girls immediately become excited and begin to make noises that sound like language.Its also known that baby girls usually talk at an earlier age than baby boys do. Scientists believe that the left side of the brain develops faster in girls than in boys. As a result by the time they start to school little girls have an advantage that boys dont have but what have the boys been doing in the year before starting school? They have been developing something called aggression.An aggressive person feels strong and independent (独立的). He is often the first one to start a fight. It is said that aggression is caused by hormones(荷尔蒙). Scientists believe that hormones are not the only cause. They say aggression in boys is also caused by mothers.（1）According to the article in Current Science, what are girls better at? A . Finding facts.B . Using language.C . Learning science.D . Building things.（2）Which is RIGHT about Jerome Kagans study? A . Girls dont like the show.B . Boys are strong enough to lift a blue box-C . Boys and girls have the same watching abilities.D . Girls quickly notice the difference in the size of the ball.（3）Why do girls have an advantage when they start to school? A . Girls become independent earlier.B . Mothers teach girls more patiently.C . Girls hormones develop more completely.D . The left side of the brain develops faster in girls.（4）What is the passage mainly about? A . The research on girls advantages.B . The result of school education.C . The differences between boys and girls.D . The childrens abilities to memorize.14. （10分）阅读下列短文，从文后每小题A、B、C选项中选择最佳答案。 We know people can be nice, but what about animals? Scientists say that some animals are capable(有能力的)of being nice. Animals that live in groups-like foxes, chimpanzees(大猩猩), and elephants-follow rules. They have to follow rules to get along and to survive(生存). However, animals can act nicely, even when they dont have to. Here are some surprising stories about animal behavior. Most people usually walk away when someone is unkind to them. Marc Bekoff, a researcher at the University of Colorado, saw a female(母的)red fox do just that. The female fox was unhappy because a male(公的)fox played roughly(粗鲁地)with her. When she walked away, the male fox showed her that he wanted to play nicely. He lowered his head and rolled on his back. The female fox gave him another chance, and this time, he played more gently. Geza Teleki is a scientist who studies chimpanzees in Tanzania. One day, Teleki hiked far away from his campsite. He didnt have any food. Teleki wanted some fruit from a tree, but the tree was too tall. A young chimpanzee watched him curiously as he tried to get something to eat. The chimpanzee climbed the tree, picked the fruit, and gave it to him! An elephant in Kenya hurt his trunk(象鼻子). He needed help because he couldnt put food into his mouth. Researcher Kayhan Ostovar watched silently. He saw the hurt elephant show his sore trunk to a healthy elephant. The healthy elephant didnt need any more information. He took a bush and put it carefully into his new friends mouth. Hippos(河马)and crocodiles are usually good friends. They hang out together in rivers. But Karen Paolillo, a wildlife expert in Zimbabwe, saw something surprising. One day, a crocodile tried to eat a monkey that was next to a river. A hippo ran quickly to the crocodile and chased it away. Why did the hippo attack(攻击)the crocodile? Paolillo says hippos sometimes protect other animals from crocodiles. （1）The main idea of the passage is . A . animals that live in groups follow rulesB . some animals can be nice to other animalsC . most animals are nice to people（2）The underlined phrase do just that means .

We feel angry with the bullies and sorry for the victims in fights and blackmails. Some middle schools and primary schools in some far counties and villages are the worst-hit parts. Nearly half the victims of bullying in middle schools choose to stay silent rather than ask for help or ways to solve the problem, China Youth Daily reported.There is a study on junior middle school bullying made by the China Womens University. It showed that 48.9 percent of the students never asked for help after being bullied. And the study also told us 52.6 percent kept silent because they were afraid of “losing face among schoolmates”.The China Youth and Children Research Center made a survey of 5,864 primary and middle school percent of students suffered bullying, while 6.1 percent were often bullied by senior schoolmates.Cases of violence between boys and girls totaled 85 percent of all school bullying, the report said. Violence between girls accounted for as much as 32.5percent of the total. Unlike direct arguments usually seen between boys, the violence between girls more often took the form of insults, which terribly caused victims have strong feelings, it was added.A study published by the Beijing High Peoples Court showed that 68 percent of offenders attacked their schoolmates in a cruel manner and nearly 60 percent of school violence cases were caused by small matters, Legal Daily said.Earlier, Tang Jun of Renmin University of China told reporters that the social risks of school bullying have been given too little care. We should train our teachers to deal with school bullying, improve their skills of preventing it, and help the victim students to recover physically and mentally. At the same time, students and their parents should know the schools rules about bullying and what they should do if it happens. Second, children should be taught to stand up for themselves. They should try to solve problems by talking them out. Children should tell someone if they are being picked on. Third, parents should look for warning signs of bullying. We must pay more attention to it and try our best to solve it.（1）Why did so many victims choose to keep silent after being bullied? A . They seem to get over easily.B . Their parents dont care them.C . There is no use to tell the teacher.D . They dont want to lose their faces.（2）What does the word insult mean? A . laugh atB . cheatC . argueD . agree（3）This passage is written to tell us that_. A . Middle School Life.B . How to get along with others?C . The Bullying in Middle School.D .
