She took a job at a hospital, delivering meals to patients as what was called “a tray girl” .Jerry Johnson, the youngest child in the family, was 5 years old when his dad left. Speaking with his mother recently, Johnson heard his mother repeat the question she asked at that time. “Lord, what am I going to do with all these kids by myself?” The answers came in the form of lima beans, black-eyed peas and low prices on chicken necks. “Something to boil for every day of the week,” Conley said.“I cannot remember one Christmas that I didnt feel like the luckiest kid in the world,” Johnson said, “even though now I realize we has hardly anything in terms of money.”“How did you hold all that together?” he asked his mother.Conley said she would save up her sick days at work, going in no matter how she felt. Then in December, the company would pay her for the unused sick days. More help came in castoffs(废弃物)，when wealthy families would clean out their toy chests at Christmastime and take a load of toys to the Salvation Army. Conley would pick through them, finding the best ones for her children. The result of those sacrifices led to a big, happy Christmas for Conley and her kids.“But I never did tell you it was a Santa Claus,” Conley said, “I couldnt give any man credit for what I had done.”Johnson thanked his mom for her sacrifices, and for the good example she set for him and his siblings. “I think its helping us all be better parents,” Johnson said.56. How did Johnson feel about Christmas when he was a kid? A. Awful B. Disappointed C. Pleased D. Indifferent57. How did Conley struggle to send the children Christmas gifts? A. By begging rich families to help B. By picking up gifts of low prices C. By visiting the Salvation Army D. By helping clean out toy chests58. The underlined part in Paragraph 6 shows that Conley_? A. didnt believe in God then B. was proud of what she did C. was complaining about her bad luck D. wasnt willing to ask others for help59. From the passage we can know that _. A. Conley had great influence on her kids B. Conley was an optimistic but stubborn woman C. Johnson landed a job in Conleys company finally D. Johnson sensed his mothers despair when he was youngBFlorida deputy Gene Smith thought the calls about a kangaroo wandering on the street were part of a prank. But WTSP reports that the story was true: A five-foot-tall, 200-pound kangaroo was hopping around Pasco County on Sunday.Then the call came that it was now on US 301. Gene Smith, who noted that the calls were the strangest hed received during 17 years on the force, said, “Sure enough, there was a kangaroo in the middle of the road. It was a pretty big and extremely strong animal. It wasnt until I grabbed those legs that I realized just how strong they were. It doesnt look like that on TV.In fact, the kangaroo was so strong that police couldnt catch it. Along with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and the Pasco County Sheriffs Office Agricultural Unit, they tried a number of approaches to wrangle in the animal without seriously injuring it. But not even tranquilizers(镇定剂) could slow down the creature. Eventually, local resident Kevin Wehling, who WTSP said “had heard rumors about the kangaroo and wanted to see it for himself,” captured the animal.Kangaroos typically do not attack humans unless they are angered. However, an Australian politician was recently knocked down and scratched facing a kangaroo while out for a morning jog. They can become more aggressive when they find themselves in a strange environment with a team of police officers hunting them down.Police still have no idea who owns the kangaroo and have now placed it in the care of a vet. Technically, you can own a kangaroo in the Sunshine State if you have the right permits. In theory, wildlife officials should be able to narrow the field and pinpoint where the stray kangaroo came from.60. What does the underlined word “prank” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Task B. Plan C. Trick D. Show61. According to what Gene Smith said in Paragraph2, we infer that_. A. he was skilled at grabbing kangaroo B. he had seen many kangaroos in the wild before C. he had always worried that kangaroos would attack peopleD. he didnt expect capturing the kangaroo would be that hard62. What can we infer from Paragraph4? A. Kangaroos are the gentlest animals in the world B. Kangaroos can be dangerous in certain circumstances C. Kangaroos usually beg for food when they are hungry D. Kangaroos can adapt to a strange environment quickly63. Wildlife officials should be able to pinpoint where the stray kangaroo came from because _. A. the kangaroo can lead them to its owner B. they can refer to the kangaroos footsteps C. cameras have recorded the kangaroos track D. they can refer to records of people keeping kangaroosCA Scottish woman has given birth to twins for the third time. Karen Rodger, 41, welcomed her first pair of girls rowan and Isla after having twice given birth to twin boys.“I still havent really taken it on board because I was convinced I was having two boys,” Rodger told Sky News. Karen said her husband Colin was equally stunned when the couple learned they were going to have their fifth and sixth child. “He thought I was joking and immediately wrote back to say this is not funny. I had to explain that it really was true,” Karen said.The average couple has about a 3 percent chance of having twins when not accounting for fertility(多产)drugs. And with each following pregnancy, the changes of producing twins a second, or even third time, become less.Karen, a dance lecturer, first learned of the incredibly rare occurrence during a visit to her doctor and immediately texted her husband to share the news. “I just could not believe it. It never crossed my mind that it would be twins again. I just thought that wouldnt happen to people like me, but Im absolutely delighted,” she said.64. According to Paragraph2, when the husband heard the news, he was_.A. upset B. worried C. relieved D. shocked65. What can we infer form Paragraph3?A. The average couple would turn to fertility drugs.B. The average couple gives birth to twins for a reason.C. The average couples chance of having the new twins is rare.D. The average couple gives birth to twins because they are different.66. From Karen s reaction to the news given by her doctor, we infer that_.A. she didnt know she was pregnant again B. she was happy to have twins againC. she didnt think she was different from othersD. she didnt know how to tell her husband the news67. After reading the passage, we know that Karen _.A. gave birth to the twin girls in her fortiesB. now has three boys and three girls in totalC. was talked into having more kids by her husbandD. hoped she could have more girls soon D Do you want to go out of town for a bit of rest and relaxation?

Punishment is focused on reducing or getting rid of unwanted behaviors. Punishment can be effective in some cases. 71 Prison is one example. After being sent to jail for a crime, people often continue committing crimes once they are away from prison. Why is it that punishment seems to work in some instances, but not in others？Researchers have found a number of factors that contribute to how effective punishment is. First, punishment is more likely to lead to a reduction in behavior if it immediately follows the behavior. 72 It may help explain why sending people to jail does not always lead to a reduction in criminal behaviors. Another factor is that punishment achieves greater results when it is consistently applied. 73 For example, people often continue to drive over the speed limit even after receiving a speeding ticket. Why? Because the behavior is inconsistently punished. 74 One of them is that any behavior changes that result from punishment are often temporary(暂时的). Perhaps the greatest one is the fact that punishment makes people not perform certain actions, but it does not actually offer any information about more appropriate or desired behaviors. Another thing to consider about punishment is that it can have unintended and undesirable consequences. For example, approximately 75 percent of parents in the United States report hitting their children. 75 For this reason, psychologists suggest that any short-term gains from using punishment should be weighed because it may produce potential long-term consequences.A. Punishment also has some notable disadvantages.B.
